Happy 2005, everyone! I hope you guys had a safe and fun holiday! Now, we enter a New Year and hopefully good things will come out of it. Ever since the Tsunami disaster, I've been hoping this year will recover. Anyway, this is the year where I hope to conclude the D-Fusion series. It's been nearly three and a half years in the making. After I complete this finale, I'm on to write the series of D-Fusion movies that I've been meaning to hold back.
Now with that out of the way, let's start the New Year off with heavy intense action! Doomsdramon has evolved and has set his sights on Omega X's team. Also, we'll be seeing Burizalor and Virus making their final appearances in the series. Will they go out with style or humiliation? You'll just have you find out. Those two just might surprise ya. ((wink)) Enjoy the fic!

After being saved from a desperate pinch by Gallantmon, the legendary warriors and the others, Tai and Agumon were rescued in time. The Crimson Knight and his allies offered to transfer enough energy to replenish their power in order for them to fuse into Omega X ocne again at full power. The legendary warriors took it upon themselves to momentarily distract Atolmdramon with little success. With his level four power restored, it seemed like a battle to the death between him and Atolmdramon. The conclusion came when Omega X fired a Times Ten Terra Beam to destroy the demonic dragon. It seemed as though the goddess of victory was bestowed upon our heroes. Until… Atolmdramon rose out from the rubble to absorb the seven digicores into his body. He underwent a digivolution and becomes the powerful Doomsdramon. Doomsdramon now possesses the powers of the seven monsters, including his own. His power was in a class of its own. Guys, just what will you do to overcome this demonic entity?!
Meanwhile back inside Demon's Cavern, the territory of Mari has finally been shutdown. To bring down Mari's territory, it would mean her death. She was merely used as a tactic by Saitou. However, if the hole to the Dark Realm were completed, the Human World and the Digital Worlds would be destroyed. Dorothy used the cruelest method available to him, killing Mari. Following that, Davis and his groups found themselves across two unknown doorways. But just who or what lurks behind these doors? How will they inch on step closer into Saitou's lair? Only one hour remains until the hole is complete. The double conflict continues!

Somewhere away from the Battle from Doomsdramon
-
With the battle still ensuing at the devastated city, a familiar couple was seen walking through the forest very cautiously. One of them was a lady with a red web-like outfit, purple shoes and a pair of sunglasses. Her hair was silver and skin very pale. The other was a man who seemed to be wearing a huge, blue trench coat. His face was hidden underneath a big hat with one eye exposed along with a toothy grin. He followed the lady along while fixing his big blue hat.
"Arukenimon! Are you sure you know where we're going?"
"Yes, you dolt! You even said yourself to bring you out to where those Digi-Destined are battling!"
"These past few days have been too hectic for me. I have a reputation as a Digimon World champion to uphold. I can't let them down!"
"Then, you can make them proud by helping those Digi-Destined. Come one now! Don't make me have to cut through these brushes myself you majesty," Arukenimon said with sarcasm.
"Hey! Could you at least get me out of this hat! I need to see this for myself!" a voice blurted out from within the hat.
"Quiet down, Black Gatomon! You'll catch their attention. We want to make this a big surprise for them," Mummymon whispered inside his hat.
"Surprise, eh? Well, let's make it count, Mummymon, my dear friend!"
"I just wonder how Dorothy is doing at this point."
"Dee? Oh, I'm sure she'll be fine," the dark feline replied. "I'm anxious to see this monster for myself. If what they say about him is true, then his power makes even D-Reaper's power look like a joke."
"Really? But, Taichi and Takato should be there, right?"
"Of course they would, you bumbling fool!" Arukenimon snapped.
Just then, they stopped ahead to come across the exact city that was just momentarily destroyed by Omega X's Terra Beam. The duo stopped across with mouths gaping open in shock.
"Yep! They were here just now," Mummymon said. "Black Gatomon! You've got to take a look at this."
"I'm already peeking through your hat. Man, this must have been one heck of a battle!"
"Don't look now but I see them just now," the female spider hybrid pointed out across the scene.
Just ahead of them was the entity of evil himself, Doomsdramon. The beast looked down upon Omega X and his crew as if they were pieces of slab meat. Mummymon freaked out and hid behind a pile of rubble.
"No! I'm too old for this! Can we go home now, Arukenimon?!"
"Ooooh, I thought you were going to represent the digimon as their grand champion?" Arukenimon looked down on the cowering digimon with a sly grin.
"I am the champion… but even I know when I shouldn't stick my nose in somebody else's business. I'll leave this to Taichi and the others…"
As Mummymon trembled behind the rubble like a wimpering child, Black Gatomon emerged out of the hot to watch the battle with great interest. Simply sighing in disbelief, Arukenimon lowers her head and rubs her forehead.
"Ugh, you are just unbelievable. World champion, my butt…"
Back at the battle scene, Doomsdramon checked across at his adversaries by reading their ki levels. The only ones who even remotely posed a threat to him were Omega X, Crimson Gallantmon, Kaiser Greymon and Magna Garurumon. Everyone else was nothing more than insignificant insects to the beast. The seven digicore pieces shone across Doomsdramon's chest.
"So, tell, Gallantmon," Sakuyamon wondered. "Just who has the edge in power now?"
"To tell you the truth, I can't tell. Both are quite equally powerful. Omega X just had his power replenished and Doomsdramon just digivolved. I think it can go either way. In any case, I'll be here to back Tai up."
"Me, too!" Kaiser Greymon shouted.
"And the same goes for myself!" said Magna Garurumon.
Before Omega X prepared to make his first move, Doomsdramon raised his right hand. He remained still for a moment until a low beaming noise was heard coming from the beast. A sudden invisible force shoots out from Doomsdramon and across the entire widespread range. As a result, a powerful force shot across at the same time and caused heavy winds to blow across. Another invisible force pushed across at the group. The digimon were quick to become alarmed yet most of them were too late to even consider moving away.
Amongst the group, Omega X, Crimson Gallantmon, Kaiser Greymon and Magna Garurumon remained standing. Everyone else was either blown away or knocked out unconsciousness. Pikkan and Cyberleomon stood by to protect Jeri from harm. The other four legendary warriors were unable to hold themselves back any longer and were sent flying across. Their partners saved Joe and Cody. Sakuyamon was blown back and slammed against a concrete wall. Digmon and Zudomon were the first to de-digivolve back to their rookie forms. Next, the four warriors turned back to their human forms. Sakuyamon was completely unconscious but managed to maintain her mega form for the moment. Also laying next to her was BW, who was managing to slowly move about.
"Ah, no! He got everyone else!" Crimson Gallantmon cried out. "Sakuyamon! BW!"
"What about… Oh no! Zoe! JP!" Kaiser Greymon called out to his comrades.
"Kouichi! Tommy!" exclaimed Magna Garurumon.
"Even though I can't see, I can feel their powers going down!" Omega X growled. "Damn it, Doomsdramon! That was not right! This is between you and me!"
"That's right. I simply cleared away the nuisances. This is between you and me as it should be, Taichi. Too bad these three are still kicking," Doomsdramon replied.
"Don't forget about us, jack ass!" Pikkan called out.
"We're not done yet," Cyberleomon said.
"Me… out of the damn frying pan? You've got to be kidding me," BW managed to stifle a laugh. "I'm taking my ass back in the game!"
"You two stay with Jeri!" Omega X ordered. "This bastard is mine!"
"Tai. Remember, we've got your back. Call us when you need help," Kaiser Greymon said with a nod.
"Don't forget. We've always got our secret weapon," Crimson Gallantmon replied.
"Thanks, Takuya. Takato. Now sit back and conserve your energy. I'm the one with the most power and I'm going to use it all on this guy! You hear that, Doomsdramon?"
"Loud and clear. Now, let us continue where we left off, Taichi."
"Just what I was hoping for."
Meanwhile back across the city, the comedic trio was found buried underneath a pile of birth. Black Gatomon was the first to rise out from the 'grave', so to speak. He threw up his hands into the air and happily cheered.
"YAY! Let's do that again!"
"Uh… I think not," Mummymon's voice groaned. "I told you… I was getting too old for this."
"Oh, can it! Bandage boy!" hissed Arukenimon.
Doomsdramon levitated away from his previous spot and lands at the center of the cleared debris. He wiped his foot across the dirt. Levitating from across him was a still blinded Omega X. The warrior's eyes have still not recovered from being swiped by Eisdramon's ice trick. Despite the handicap, he can still sense out the dragon's tremendously dark aura, not to mention his movements.
"You see this cleared ground, Taichi? This will make a perfect gravesite. The devastated buildings in the background. Doesn't it just remind you of post-apocalyptic Japan years ago? Kind of ironic that I just brought back painful memories for the island country. The same will occur across every major city across the globe. Human extinction, doesn't that just sound pleasant?"
"No! That's just crazy talk coming from an arrogant bastard!"
"But you do have to agree. This is quite the sight for a grave."
"Yes. Know you what? All we need is a dead body for a proper burial. I sense the one individual who will be buried. That will be you, Doomsdramon. I'm going to make you pay for what you did to Novadramon."
"You misunderstand, Taichi. This gravesite will be solely for you. You see, I will be burying your corpse and bring glory to the seven beasts of death! Your fated showdown with Dark Angel will be postponed for the rest of eternity because you will die by my hands!"
With that said, Omega X had heard enough from the demonic dragon and immediately powers up a bright golden aura. The warriors phase out quickly enough for the others to not have a chance to blink an eye. He reappears across the battlefield and charges a full scale assault on the dragon. Omega X retaliates with vicious kicks and punches all across Doomsdramon's magnificent form. Each blow made their mark on Doomsdramon, yet the villain didn't at all seem fazed by Omega X's blows. Omega X stopped for a moment until he realized that Doomsdramon's body was starting to emit a sun-like temperature. A radiant red-orange aura engulfs Doomsdramon. Omega X screamed out while blowing across his burnt fists.
"SHIT! THAT'S HOT! OW!"
"I can't believe you felt for that one, Taichi."
"You just used Novadramon's own ability!"
"That's right. I used Novadramon's body heat technique. But, that's not all I can do. Just watch. The fun is just about to start."
With that said, Doomsdramon's eyes emitted blue flashes and he shoots out an ice beam across Omega X. The beams engulfed Omega X and quickly encased him inside the same ice sculpture that Eisdramon used against him.
"No! Not this again! This is Eisdramon's freezing ray!"
"I don't think you've had the pleasure of witnessing this one for yourself. So, why don't I demonstrate for you?"
Doomsdramon leaps up into the air and sets his hand across. A whip materializes in his hand and is lashed across at the frozen warrior.
"This is Lamiamon's technique! THUNDER WHIP!!"
The deadly electric whip lashes across and sends the ice covered warrior hurtling across the landscape. Doomsdramon was not finished with his offense just yet. He prepared for another one of Lamiamon's attacks.
"DARKNESS LIGHTING CLAWS!!"
The dragon brings out his claws and sends out an 'X' shaped slash at Omega X. This attack managed to shatter the ice and immediately free Omega X. However, the warrior was in a tight pinch and sent hurtling across. Next, Doomsdramon tapped into another one of the seven beasts' attacks. This time he went for Rage Archaopteryxmon's technique.
"SUPER THUNDER STRIKE!!"
As soon as he said that, a massive thunderbolt was sent down from the heavens and struck Omega X. This managed to send him plummeting down into the surface below. The bolt also managed to destroy a large portion of some remaining buildings and turned them into complete rubble. A mushroom smoke cloud emerges once the destruction cleared away. Doomsdramon levitates over and grins at his handy work.
"No! Tai!" Gallantmon exclaimed.
"This can't be happening," Kaiser Greymon said.
"It's not over! I'm sure he'll pull through," Magna Garurumon stated.
Once the smoke cleared away, Omega X was found buried underneath a pile of rubble. Doomsdramon was quite pleased and snickered at the fallen warrior.
"Did you finally kick the bucket just yet, Taichi?"
"Hell no!"
"What!?"
Omega X sits up from the wreckage with a confident smile on his face. He shook off the dust from his body. He not only took those blasts without taking that much damage but he survived.
"Nice try, Doomsdramon. However, that's not going to work on me. You see, I've already become accustomed to some of those stolen techniques you're using. You'll just have to come up with a better solution."
"You tell him," BW muttered.
This only managed to infuriate Doomsdramon further. The beast quickly phased out and flew across the landscape at his prey. He swoops and spears Omega X right through a wall of debris. Omega X is once again sent hurtling across and is immediately met with an elbow shot to his back delivered by Doomsdramon. The warrior of courage is sent plummeting through a wrecked building.
Meanwhile, the Chosen Children rose up from the debris. They had just realized that they were back in their human forms.
"Aw, man! This sucks!" JP whined.
"We're back to normal?" Tommy asked.
"It's because of Doomsdramon. He only swept us away with a tiny percentage of his power," Kouichi replied. "That resulted in us reverting back to our normal forms."
"Great! Just great! At least Takuya and Kouji are still in their Zeta-forms," Zoe said. "Oh my… What a mess."
BW was next to rise up and hunches over to the fallen Sakuyamon. He nudges on her shoulder.
"Hey, Sakuyamon. You going to be okay? Nah, you're not."
"Well, that was some ride," Cody said while dusting himself off. "You're back to normal, Armadillomon."
"Which bites. I wanted more of that varmint," Armadillomon spat.
"Well, it could be worse. We would have been turned to mush by that creep," Gomamon said.
"I don't even want to find out," sighed Joe. "Look at this mess. No way I'm cleaning this up."
"We're directly at ground zero," BW reminded everyone. "C'mon, Tai. Get up and waste this bastard."
"That's it! I'm going in there! If Tai get pissed, then he can sue me!" Kaiser Greymon cried out as he charged towards Doomsdramon.
"Hey! Stop it, Takuya!" Magna Garurumon exclaimed.
"Don't do it!" cried Gallantmon.
"Hey, ugly! Over here!"
Doomsdramon stopped his slow walk and turned to face Kaiser Greymon. The Zeta-warrior dashes across and slides past Doomsdramon. He directly puts his blade directly at Doomsdramon and charges up for an attack. He sends out an arrow-like fire blast at Doomsdramon.
"Dragonfire Crossbow!!"
"Damn it! Well, here goes nothing! FINAL JUSTICE!!" Crimson Gallantmon cried out while shooting out a white blast at Doomsdramon.
Both attacks hit their mark on Doomsdramon and only managed to push him back. However, they did inflict any damage onto the dragon beast.
"Damn it! It's not working, Gallantmon!"
"We're going to have to give it another try, Takuya!" the crimson knight screamed. "I'm not about to give out just yet."
"Feh. Annoying insects. All of you be gone," Doomsdramon muttered.
Just as Doomsdramon was preparing to launch an attack on the duo, Omega X emerged from the rubble and fell down onto the ground. The dragon takes notice of this.
"As soon as I get rid of these pests, we shall continue our fight, Taichi."
Once Doomsdramon slowly made his way towards the duo, the warrior crawled across the ground and slid his hand across glass shards. He winced from the cut and looked down at the glass shards.
"Damn, Tai. You look like a piece of crap right now," Omega X said to himself. "Huh…? Myself…?! What? I…"
His vision was finally coming back to him as he saw his own reflection through the shards and found the ground surface. A smile forms across his face.
"I can see again! About time!"
"Get ready, Takuya! We're going to attack on three! Ready?!" asked Gallantmon.
"You bet! Kouji! You'll attack last!"
"Right!"
"Well, boys. I'm ready for whatever you have to deliver," Doomsdramon said. "I hope you don't disappoint me."
"Oh wow, this is really terrifying!" Omega X calls out.
This statement from Omega X caught everyone's attention, including Doomsdramon. He turned around to glare over at Omega X.
"Huh? Just what is he babbling about?" JP wondered.
"He's lost it," Zoe said.
"Those blows must have really damaged his brain," Tommy replied.
"I'll bet," sighed Kouichi.
"Just what are you thinking in that head of yours, Tai?" BW thought.
"Doomsdramon! I'm going to make sure I defeat you," the warrior stated. "So, ready for me to hand your ass on a silver platter?"
Omega X crouches down and cups his hands in a familiar posture, which the beast had already become accustomed to already. Everyone considered this nothing more than a stupid bluff; even Doomsdramon was quick to call the warrior's bluff. Little did they realize that Omega X had an ace up his sleeve.
"Tai! Just let us handle this!" Gallantmon calls out.
"Ha! Just what are you, high?!" Doomsdramon laughed. "You know you can't see. I doubt you could even aim properly, Taichi."
"Don't waste your energy, Tai! Let us take it from here," Kaiser Greymon said.
Doomsdramon stepped out at the center from his enemy and stood with his arms held out. He pointed to his chest as if he marked a bulls eye.
"Over here, Taichi. I'm right here. Give me your worst. Take careful aim now."
With that said, Omega X immediately saw through and opened his eyes. A grin forms across his face as he prepared to launch an attack. This caught everyone, including Doomsdramon, off guard.
"Great! That's exactly where I want you!"
"What the hell?!"
Omega X quickly sends out a tremendous energy blast through his hands and nails it across Doomsdramon. The dragon beast screamed out with the blast taking a toll on his body.
"WHAT?! IMPOSSIBLE!"
"Al right, Tai! What a faker!" Gallantmon cheered.
"Heh, never thought you'd do something like that at the last minute," snickered Kaiser Greymon.
"Brilliant tactic, Tai!" BW praised the warrior.
"I must say. Even he threw me off guard. I thought the fool was merely calling an idiotic bluff," said Pikkan.
"Now, he'll take back the advantage over Doomsdramon," replied Cyberleomon.
"But, how?! When did you regain your vision, Taichi?! Explain yourself!!"
"NOW YOU'RE MINE!! TAKATO! NOW! IT'S TIME!!"
(Play Digimon Tamers Theme One Vision)
"What?! Oh, you mean our tag team finishing blow?! You got it! Here I go!"
As soon as he said that, Crimson Gallantmon powered up in response to Omega X. His body quickly exploded into a red cloud of light. The red light is sent directly towards Omega X. The warrior charges across and absorbs Crimson Gallantmon's essence through his body. His entire body became covered by a crimson aura. Omega X lets out a monstrous scream before his directed his fist towards Doomsdramon. Doomsdramon could only look on with utter disbelief.
"RYU-KEN!!" the dual voice of Omega X/Gallantmon screamed out.
Omega X shoots across through the energy beam. An image of a crimson dragon fades within the background along with the attack. He slammed his fist across at Doomsdramon and sent him skidding through the desert landscape. The fist starts to pierce right through the beast's torso slowly but surely. Even Doomsdramon couldn't hope to withstand this devastating blow.
"You can do it, guys! You've got him!" Kaiser Greymon exclaimed.
"Just one more push and he's through!" screamed BW.
"Hell yeah! Now that bastard is through!" Pikkan said.
"Go team! Go!" Calumon cheered.
Omega X screamed out and puts out more force through his attack. The crimson dragon shoots across and wraps itself around Doomsdramon like a boa constrictor. Doomsdramon screamed out with the crimson dragon holding a vice grip on the beast. Omega X takes advantage of this and plunges through Doomsdramon as if he were Play Doh. The crimson dragon immediately fades away from sight. Omega X and Crimson Gallantmon separated themselves apart to gaze down on their handiwork. Doomsdramon was completely incapacitated with a large gaping hole through his torso.
"Did we get him?" Gallantmon wondered.
"Only one way to find out."
Doomsdramon lets out his final screams before exploding into a massive cloud of dust. There was nothing left of the dragon but a scattering aura of data.
"They did it!" Jeri and Calumon cheered.
"Awesome finish you guys!" Kaiser Greymon praised the duo.
"Now that was something worth remembering!" JP cried out.
"Great! All seven monsters have been put out of commission. All we need to do is go to Demon's Cavern to save Max," BW said.
"Max. We're not too far away from saving you, son," Omega X lets out a deep relief sigh.
Finally emerging out of the rubble, Mummymon and his crew had just witnessed the defeat of Doomsdramon. The bandaged people's champion leaped out and held a pair of traditional Japanese air fans.
"Tai and Takato! You're our team! Nobody can even touch you two!" Mummymon screamed out.
As soon as he broke out into a break dance, Arukenimon covered her face in embarrassment.
"Ugh, if anyone asks me if I have any association with him, just tell them no, Blacky."
"Um, sure," Black Gatomon replied. "But, those guys really did it!"
"Good. Now we can move on."
"I had faith that you two would win!" Mummymon cried out as he ran towards the heroes.
"Hey, it's Mummymon!" Jeri said.
"Ugh, what's this idiot doing here?" Pikkan muttered.
"Well, it seems Tai and Takato have a big fan," Zoe giggled.
Both Omega X and Crimson Gallantmon levitated down once the battle had concluded. It seemed way too easy for them to overcome Doomsdramon.
"We were kind of disappointed," Gallantmon said. "We were expecting him to overcome that one."
"You think so?" asked Magna Garurumon.
"I was expecting him to at least put up a fight," Cyberleomon said. "But he was nothing more than another arrogant fool."
"Well, at least we've defeated all seven beasts," Omega X said. "Now we can move on to rescue Max. I can't wait to get my hands on that Saitou bastard."
(End theme)
Suddenly, a pair of pink slime globs was starting to come together from out of the rubble. The group turned to see the globs forming into one familiar form.
"Look! It's that damn slime from before!" Sakuyamon called out as she finally came to her senses. "I knew he wouldn't go down that easily…"
"She's right! Rage Archaeopteryxmon was able to regenerate using that electric slime," Cyberleomon said.
"I knew it was too good to be true! Damn it!" cursed Gallantmon.
"YIKES! Ok, I came at the wrong time," Mummymon panicked while wailing his arms.
The pink globs all came together and transformed back to Doomsdramon's horrifying form. He was back without a single scratch on his body and the gaping hole was gone as well. The beast dusted off his revived body and nodded his head.
"Yes, that was Rage Archaeopteryxmon's forte, wasn't it?" Doomsdramon snickered.
"No! It can't be!" Omega X gasped. "We had him, Takato!"
"We should have told you earlier. This is my fault," Gallantmon sighed.
"That was a very brilliant strategy, boys," Doomsdramon said to the warrior duo. "But those crappy tricks won't work on me. I'm an opponent on a different scale."
"Oh man! This isn't good!" JP gulped. "Any bright ideas, guys?!"
"None," Kouji said.
"None of our attacks are going to work this guy," Magna Garurumon said.
"Um, Joe. So, ready for the afterlife?" Gomamon said while trying to lighten the mood.
"Are you crazy?! I'm not ready to die just yet!"
"Plus this guy is even stronger than the D-Reaper," Gallantmon said. "Any bright ideas, Tai?"
"You're asking me for any ideas? Shoot… I don't have any at the very moment."
Doomsdramon slowly steps forward and pointed his finger at the group. He looked ready to fire his adversaries at once with one of his very own techniques.
"Ok, children. Playtime is over. With one blast, I'll reduce you to atomic dust. I hope each of you have said your prayers. This site will be the place for your graves. Sayanora."

Demon's Cavern

Rei halted to a complete stop. This caught everyone off track. Even Metalla X was growing rather impatient with her.
"Ok, what is it Rei?" Davis said.
"I don't know but I feel something strange."
"Like what? Tell us," Dorothy asked.
"I… I can't tell…"
Unbeknownst to them, there was an evil force at work beyond their reach. Perhaps this was the last obstacle they had to overcome before reaching Saitou's lair.
"All I know is that I have a bad feeling about this," answered Rei. "Mr. Saitou probably has set a final trap on us."
"Another damn obstacle?! I'm through with these damn distractions!" Metalla X cursed.
"Yeah! What's that creep waiting for?! We're going to get Max whether he wants us to or not!" Keke said.
"Calm down, everyone. I'm sure if he work together on this, we'll pull through," Kari assured everyone.
"Tell that to the clock. We have only an hour left," said TK.
"I don't know about you but I'm ready for anything," Davis replied. "Right, Veemon?"
"You said it!"
Suddenly, Metalla X stopped for a moment and felt a tremendous power erupting from outside the cavern. He recognized the great power, as did the digimon.
"Whoa! What is it, guys?!" asked Keke.
"For a minute there, I felt Tai and Takato just now," Gatomon said. "Plus, the monster they're fighting!"
"Yeah. It's unfortunate I was unable to sense them since we were still trapped inside Mari's territory," Metalla X said.
"So, what are you planning on doing?" Patamon asked the wolf warrior.
"What else? I'm leaving you guys to take it from here. I'm going out to fight whatever Tai and the others are fighting now. Maybe this monster can provide a challenge for me at least."
"You're going to leave us behind?" Davis said.
"Davis. It's up to you, my brother and Hikari to carry on without me. This is your chance to prove yourselves once again. Who knows what kinds of dangers present themselves beyond the doorways. But remember this… You three are Digi-Destined and proud ones at that."
"Matt," TK muttered. "You can count on us."
"I know I can. Now if you'll excuse me."
With that said, Metalla X powers up with a flaring aura around his body. He flies out with tremendous speed in hopes of making it over in time to save Tai and the others. He left Davis' group behind to pick up the slack. TK and Kari looked over towards the doorways standing across from them.
"Ok, guys. You ready for this?" Davis asked. "There are two doorways just ahead of us. I'll be taking the one on the right with Veemon. Anyone else would like to join?"
"I'll go," Keke said. "Anybody else? Say something now or forever hold your piece."
"Count me in," Henry replied.
"Heh. Don't have to tell me twice. I'm game!" Terriermon said.
"Great. That leaves me, Kari, Dorothy and Rei to take the other doorway," TK replied.
"I have a really bad feeling about this you guys," Rei said.
"Don't worry. Whatever is behind these doors shouldn't be that much of a problem," Kari assured the girl.
"Well, I'm ready to get going. How about you guys?" Dorothy asked.
Everyone responded to her questions with simple nods. Davis and TK simultaneously opened the doors. Before they could even react, vortexes appeared before them and immediately started to pull them in like a vacuum. They couldn't even get a chance to grab a foothold to prevent themselves from getting sucked in.
"UGH! HANG ON TIGHT EVERYONE!!" Davis screamed out.
"I SURE DIDN'T EXPECT THIS!" exclaimed Veemon.
"OH! THIS SUCKS ON SO MANY LEVELS!" Terriermon cried out.
Before they even had another chance to scream, the groups were pulled in through the vortexes immediately. The doors closed and dispersed within thin air literally. A deep laughter was echoing beyond the caverns.
"Have fun with your new cellmates," Saitou's haunting voice whispered throughout the caverns.
-

???? Interdimensional world
-
After having crossed through the first doorway, TK, Patamon, Kari, Gatomon, Rei Saiba and Dorothy found themselves in a desert-like setting. The landscape was barren with barely any life activity. The mountains across the horizon were gigantic and quite a magnificent view. Winds blew across the landscape and brushes dust against the arrivals.
"Where are we exactly, Rei?" Patamon asked.
"I have no idea. This place is new to me. I wasn't expecting a doorway into another world."
"Well, Rei sure as heck didn't expect Mari to set up a territory within the caverns," Kari replied. "It's obvious Saitou is attempting to hold us back from saving Max."
"But, we only have an hour left," Dorothy said. "We have to find a way out of here before the tunnel is opened."
"We know, but where is the way out of here?" TK wondered. "We'll begin searching."
"Agreed. I say we split up and find the doorway out of here," Kari suggested for everyone.
"That sounds like a brilliant plan, but too bad it won't work as long as I'm around," an arrogant voice calls out.
This haunting voice brought chills down the spines of both TK and Kari. They had been acquainted with this voice before and Kari was hopeful to never make contact with this individual ever again. The group looked up to find a very intimidating figure looking down upon them with keen interest. This individual has blue green hide skin and on his back were a pair of black insect like wings. Underneath the wings was a tan-colored appendage with a needle at the end. His face was human-like in appearance yet there was purple streaks on the sides of his face and his eyes were pink with black irises. Over his head was a crown-like appendage rising up and split in the middle. His shins and forehead were black and his feet were yellow.

A sinister grin formed on the villain's face and Kari could only mutter one name to identify the enemy.
"Virus…"
"It's been such a long time, Hikari. I see you've grown up since the last time we've met. I also see you've brought along Takeru, your digimon pets and… Two new players in the game. I can tell one of you is the D-Reaper's reincarnation. Dorothy. How good to finally meet you."
"The pleasure is not mine!" hissed Dorothy.
"This guy looks bad!" Rei said.
"Believe me, he is. He took my life and tried to do away with Kari during the War Games many years ago," TK informed her.
"Yeah. I'll never forget that day. I remember it as if it were yesterday," Kari growled. "So, you decided to show yourself again? I thought you were stuck in digital limbo."
"Last time I checked Tai and Takato made short work of you and Burizalor," Gatomon stated.
"Ah, but was long before Millenniumon set us free from our prison. He has granted us one final chance to do away with you, digi-pests."
"Ha, you keep telling yourself that," Kari laughed. "My power has grown extraordinarily since the last time we clashed. Mystic Celesta will destroy you!"
"Maybe, but I've keep my eye on your battles even during my imprisonment in limbo. I studied you like a hawk. I now know all of your strengths and weaknesses. The cells of you still course within me and are telling me that you're not what you used to be. I guess being a mother has softened you these past few years."
Clenching her fists, Kari pulls out her D-3 and prepared to undergo digital fusion with Gatomon. But, TK was quick to stop her.
"Don't let him get to you, Kari. We'll work this together."
"Takeru…"
"Yes, you should listen to your dearest husband, Hikari. Because I'm not the same Virus you've dealt with last time. With Millenniumon's dark powers coursing through me, I'll be a much more formidable enemy than before! Now, behold the true power of perfection! HI-YA!!"
With that said, Virus let out an earth-shattering scream and his body became engulfed by a dark aura. The muscles on his body bulged with veins sticking out. His eyes became possessed with a demonic flare. His screams soon were replaced by a sinister laughter. Marked on his forehead was an M emblem to indicate the marking of Millenniumon. The digimon stood their ground to protect their human partners. Dorothy protected Rei Saiba while holding her back.
"No way! You mean to tell me Hikari and Takeru dealt with this entity of evil?!" Rei asked.
"Yes! Judging by his power, he's not bluffing. Millenniumon has boosted his power to the max. I don't think even Mystic Celesta may stand a chance!"
"We're going to have to give it a try, Dorothy," Kari said. "I've beaten this creep once and I can sure as heck do it again!"
"You said it, girl!" Gatomon said in reply.
"Ha! That's what you think, fools. You'll never make it out of here alive. You'll be long dead before that tunnel even opens. Even you will bow to my might, Hikari. You will never humiliate me again. I end your pathetic life today."

???? Different Interdimensional world
-
Inside another interdimensional world, Davis, Veemon, Henry, Terriermon and Keke found themselves within a massive dome arena. There weren't any signs of life activity in the stands or even around the stadium. It was quiet… way too eerily quiet. Even Keke couldn't stand the eeriness.
"Ok, this is creeping me out. Where are the other people?" Keke asked. "Are we alone?"
"Looks like we've been sent into another realm," Henry said while looking around his surroundings.
"Nah! You think!" Terriermon sarcastically said.
"Ha. Ha. I forgot when to laugh."
Davis walks across the field and notices no soccer nets. This wasn't even a suitable arena to play soccer.
"Well, this sucks. What are we doing to do now? Veemon. Would you think they'd hide the doorway back?"
"How the heck should I know?"
"Good point, but we're just one step closer to reaching Max."
"Um, guys. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but we've got company," Keke stuttered.
"Hey, who let an albino lizard in here with black lipstick?" Terriermon asked.
"Um, no one why?" Davis asked.
"That's why!" Veemon pointed out.
Davis and the crew looked up towards the rafters of the arena. The second enemy looked down upon them with his devilish eyes. A grin forms across his face and immediately levitates out from the rafters. The mystery person revealed himself from the darkness. He was short in stature, has an odd oval-shaped baldhead, his skin was completely white and has a long lizard tail. There are dark blue patches on the top of his head, chest cavity, around the shoulders and on the knees. His eyes emitted a crimson glow, which gave off an eerie effect.
(Play Inuyasha OST theme The Wicked Naraku)
"BURIZALOR!!" Davis and Veemon exclaimed.
"So, that's Burizalor? We finally get a glimpse of the tyrant himself, Terriermon."
"Feh, he doesn't look so tough from up there!"
"Greetings, digi-pests. I see I've only attracted a few of you. Too bad Taichi couldn't make it. I was hoping to finish my ordeal with that retched human. But…"
Burizalor swiftly lands on the ground and scrunches his finger under his nose.
"You guys shall do, especially you goggle head-wannabe. Daisuke. I'll have the pleasure of torturing you before I leave this dimension to find Taichi."
"Over my dead body you will!" Davis threatened.
"Ha! So your the infamous Burizalor!" Keke said. "Hello, I'm Keke Ishida."
"Daughter of Yamato… I can smell the same stench of him off of you!"
"Glad to know that you know my father. He just left and I'm going to carry out where he left off. You caused him enough grief when he briefly worked for you. He said that he'd never catch himself dead ever serving you again."
"Ah, is that a fact?"
"Yes. Davis. Let's show this bastard no mercy."
"Keke. You leave this guy with me."
"Ultima X will be enough," Veemon said. "Nah, it'd be slaughter. Burizalor, you just signed your own death warrant."
"I'll have the pleasure to smack you around, baldy," snickered Terriermon.
"Fools. What you don't realize is that I've been released from limbo and have become empowered with an essence of Millenniumon's mysticism. You'll be dealing with a brand new Burizalor!"
"Blah. Blah. We've heard that one before," Davis said. "Tai kicked your ass and I'll have the pleasure to carry it out for him."
"Lesson one, cretin: Never underestimate me. EVER!"
"Lesson two: Don't piss Davis Motomiya off," the goggle head young adult said. "Veemon! Let's get ready to…"
"RUMBA!!"
"That's right. Keep mocking me. You'll regret everything you've just said! YOU'RE DEALING WITH THE TYRANT OF THE DIGITAL UNIVERSE! RAA!!"
Suddenly, the earth under Burizalor's feet caved in and bolts of electricity surged through his pale form. His eyes became crimson red like a demon's and a black aura engulfed his body. The tyrant's muscles, much like Virus, were starting to expand. Everyone there was traces of veins appearing, including around his forehead. Also, just like Virus, an M emblem formed on his forehead. The tyrant laughed satanically while his power increased tremendously.
(End theme)
"Whoa, I still can't believe the Digi-Destined had to fight this guy," Henry said. "This will be a testament for us, Terriermon."
"Just leave him to me, Henry! I'll show this loser he made a mistake ever crossing my path! Hi-ya! Come get ya some, Burizalor!"
"Dad actually battled this creep?" Keke wondered. "Though he did say he wasn't the same as before."
"Burizalor! This is going to be the last time we Digi-Destined EVER hear or see from you again! We're going to end you!" Davis cried out.
"That's good because I'll have the privilege to end your life, Daisuke! Followed by your friends one by one! Only one of us will make it out of here alive!"
Davis and Veemon prepared themselves for the worst to come. The tyrant was close to finishing his power-up. Now in order to save Max and stop the tunnel, the groups would now have to deal with two of their greatest enemies. Would the villains at last triumph or will they once again fall into humiliation?

Outside Demon's Cavern
-
Keeping an eye out on any outside intrusions, the remaining portions of the team stayed at their post. Suzie, Lopmon, Kazu, Guardromon, Kenta and Marine Angemon were playing cards together. Sonja remained on guard since Sora left with Izzy and Mimi. Impmon was sitting on top of the hovercraft nearly dozing off.
"Yawn Could this job get any less fun?" Impmon wondered.
"Just stay patient, Impmon," sighed Sonja.
"Me, stay patient? Listen lady, I'm about to lose it here."
"If you would just keep your-"
Just then, Sonja turned as she sensed a presence emerging through the cave's entrance. It was Shintomon, who held a deceased Mari in his arms.
"Hey, it's about time you showed up!" Impmon said. "Say, who do you got there?"
"Is everyone all right? How are Davis and Veemon?" Sonja asked.
"Everyone inside is just fine. I managed to leave with this one. She was one of Saitou's Spell casters."
"How did… did she die?"
"It's a long story, Impmon. Even you would have a hard time believing everything I say."
"Well, never mind I asked."
Suddenly, Shintomon gasped as he turned around to sense a great power emerging from the caverns. Within a split second, a super sonic blur flew out from the cave's entrance. Shintomon was thrown off his feet and onto his back from the force of the blur. Impmon and Sonja gasped as they felt a rather familiar ki from it.
"That was Yamato just now!" Sonja exclaimed.
"Now, where is that guy going?" the little rookie asked.
"It seems that he was able to pick up the energy signal from Tai and the others. They are currently engaged in a battle with the last monster."
"The last monster?!"
"That's right."
"No wonder I've been feeling uneasy ever since you guys went into that cave. I couldn't go because I didn't think I would stand a chance. Besides, Davis was inside the cavern and Sora asked me to stay here."
"It's understandable, Sonja. We'll let Yamato carry on with this. Besides, Taichi and the others need as much help as they can."
"Right. So, in the meantime, we're sitting on the sidelines?" Sonja sighed.
"Not really. If they need our help in the caverns, we'll be here."
"Good. I was just about to become bored out my mind here," said Impmon.
"For now, we'll stay put. We have to count on them to reach Saitou's lair and stop the tunnel from opening. We only have one hour left to spare until possible Armageddon comes. Come on, guys. I hope you found that tunnel by now."
Little did they realize that both teams were just split up through doorways and were set to battle two of the strongest villains in the digital universe. Even Sonja was having second thoughts of standing around. She had a bad premonition that her husband was seriously in trouble.

Elsewhere across from Demon's Cavern
-
Soaring across the heavens way past super sonic speed, Metalla X was on his way towards the battlefield where Omega X was engaged. He could feel out just about everyone's powers, including Doomsdramon.
"Yes! Finally, I get to see some action after being trapped inside that damn territory. Tai, you better have not died just yet. Because I just may have an idea of how to defeat this monster. On the other hand, I'm really going to hate myself for saying this… I'm sure you'll be jumping for joy at the idea. Well, enough of that. It's time we get serious."
Metalla X boosted his speed and sailed across the skies. Along the way, he immediately spotted Hercules Kabuterimon, Rosemon and Phoenixmon. Hanging on for the ride on their digimon were Sora, Izzy and Mimi respectively. Dimitri was taking flight alongside the digimon. The boy was the first to pick on the incoming ki signal. He immediately recognized it as his father's.
"Everyone! It's my dad! Look!" Dimitri shouted.
They all looked ahead to see a super sonic blur traveling out across the heavens.
"Rosemon. Was that Matt just now?" asked Mimi.
"Yes. It seems he's gotten much stronger than before," Rosemon replied.
"I overheard Yamaki informing me by e-mail about Matt and Gabumon receiving a dosage from the Brutes Waves," Izzy said.
"The same waves used on Matt when he was possessed by Bebimon?" asked Sora.
"Yes and it my assumptions are correct. Then… YES!"
"What now, Izzy?" Hercules Kabuterimon said.
"Mimi. Sora. Looks like we have ourselves another level four fusion warrior."
"WHAT?!" the girls exclaimed in unison.
"No wonder his energy signal was higher than usual," Phoenixmon said. "It's off the scale and he's probably even equal to Tai's power now."
"In that case, he just might be on his way to face the monster with the digicores. We had better not miss this!" Izzy said. "Let's get it going, Hercules Kabuterimon."
"I'm on it!"
"Wow… You've really done it, dad," Dimitri said. "What do you think, mom?"
"Incredible. We better hurry it up. I'd like to see him in action!"
"Yes, m'am," Sora sighed. "Tai… I hope you and the others are hanging in there before we get there. Once we deal with this monster, then we're going to go after Saitou. He must pay for kidnapping our little boy."
As they continued onward, they were unaware of the present danger currently taking root within Demon's Cavern. Their comrades have been directly sent into separate dimensional worlds to do battle with Virus and Burizalor. They only had one hour left to get to the others, defeat the final monster and fly on back to Demon's Cavern. Sora was hopeful that they were going to make it there in time. She was not ready to lose all hope just yet as long as Max was still alive.

Desert Interdimension
-
As Virus finished powering up, he emerged out of the smoke cloud. The body on his stature was larger and his eyes were possessed with wicked dark energy. The M emblem on his forehead shone with mystical power. Kari and TK stood their ground while facing off with their old enemy.
"Ahh… You see now? This is the power I've received from Millenniumon. I have exceeded your very best, Hikari. So, what are you going to do now?"
"I know what we're going to do," TK said as he held his D-3. "We're taking you down, Virus."
"That's right. Nothing is going to hold me back from finishing you off for good and saving my nephew."
"You two still don't get it. Fine, have it your way. Don't come crying to me when I easily brush you two to the side."
"All right, Dorothy. You leave to this us. Make sure Rei is safe from harm," Gatomon said.
"No problem. Just leave it to me!"
Just then, Virus gestures over at Dorothy and nods his head.
"I'm afraid I can't let you go, Dorothy. You got yourself involved in this. Now you must pay with these two. As a matter of fact, I've brought along some friends you can play with at the moment. Chibi-Viruses! Come forth!"
With that said, seven tiny miniature versions of Virus emerged from the ground. They squeaked loudly, which started to annoy Kari. She could never forget seeing these little runts again. Then again, Lamiamon had summoned some of these critters.
"I take it you remember them, Hikari. It wasn't too long ago that Lamiamon summoned these. Yes, they shall go and have some fun with Dorothy."
"Please, I've beaten them once and I can do it again," Dorothy said while taking a battle stance.
"Yes, but they've also been possessed by Millenniumon's dark essence. So they should prove to be little more difficult this time."
"That's enough talk out of you, Virus! Let's get this over with!"
"As you wish, Takeru… I shall allow you and Hikari to transform into your warrior forms. Impress me. I'm looking forward to this Mystic form of yours, Hikari."
"You ask and you shall receive," Kari growled. "Gatomon!"
"Patamon!"
The digimon pair huddled beside their partners and became engulfed by columns of light. Their bodies were undergoing a dramatic transformation from human form to their fusion warrior states.
(Play Digimon Zero Two theme Beat Hit!")
"NOW!! FUSION SHINKA!!"
First, TK and Patamon were then brought together into a quick fusion. Within a few moments, they were merged together and became a single warrior. Taking their place was none other than War Angemon. His armor looked exactly like Seraphimon's, except that his body was sleeker and a sword was wielded on his right hand. On his back was a pair of ten golden wings. His helmet was decorated with golden letter writings and contained a pair of wings on each side.
"WAR ANGEMON!!"
Once War Angemon finished his transformation, Kari and Gatomon were next to performing their fusion evolution. Mystic Celesta stood in their place with fully body armor and better protection. A sword was attached to the female warrior's back. Mystic Celesta takes out the sword and wields it.
"MYSTIC CELESTA!!"
The bio-artificial was in complete awe at the magnificent sight of the warriors representing Hope and Light. He started clapping, which did not suite well for the duo.
"Impressive! You two have exceeded my expectations. Hikari, I'm especially proud of you. You're not the same teenage brat I dealt with years ago. You've matured into quite the beauty."
"Pervert. I'm sending you back where you belong."
"Those are some bold statements, Hikari. Care to demonstrate how you'll carry on with your threat?"
"It's no threat, Virus. That's a promise," War Angemon growled.
"A threat, huh? Well then. Why don't we drop this conversation and carry on with the battle? Chibi-Viruses. I want you to fight Dorothy and show her no mercy. Now, go my children!"
"Kiki! Ki! Ki!" the tiny monsters chirped in unison.
"Dorothy! Rei! Look out!" Mystic Celesta warned the girls.
Immediately responding to the warrior's warning, Dorothy snatched Rei up and flies off into the distance. She couldn't afford to have Rei get anywhere close to the battlefield. Unlike the games with Mari, this was a far more dangerous situation and this enemy is even more destruction through his methods.
Looking back behind her, Dorothy found the Chibi-Viruses flying out in a swarm. They giggled out simultaneously.
"They're gaining on us, Dorothy!" Rei shrieked.
"Don't worry. Once I get you to safety, I'm taking these clowns apart."
"Wow, you're a girl of many talents…"
"Yeah. I get that compliment every time."
Meanwhile, Virus was facing off with both Mystic Celesta and War Angemon. He held out both hands and taunted his adversaries by waving his hands out.
"C'mon. Both you attack at once."
"If we did that, we'd kill you in an instant," Mystic Celesta snorted.
"But, you forget. I'm not the same Virus. Allow me to demonstrate!"
As soon as he said that, Virus dashes across the deserted landscape and puts out his hands to fire out a dual blast. The holy warrior pair put up their guard while preparing to attack the villain at once. However, Virus quickly phases out and disappears from their sight. Mystic Celesta searched around for Virus' ki and turned to find Virus delivering a spinning back kick. She quickly throws out an arm and blocks his kick. She takes her other hand and attempts to drive her sword through his chest. Virus bent backwards to allow the sword to point outward in the air.
"C'mon, Hikari. I was just wide open for you to attack."
"Don't taunt me!"
Mystic Celesta throws out a punch, which Virus was able to swipe away to the side. He retaliates by nailing a fist across her face. War Angemon takes up arms and charges forward. He leaps out while slashing his sword across Virus. Each blade swipe barely even made a mark on Virus, who was easily dodging the slashes.
"Takeru. I'm disappointed in you. Your power hasn't even grown that much since the War Games."
"TK! Hold on!"
Turning his head back, Virus is set with a kick to his stomach by Mystic Celesta. The artificial had a pained look on his face for a moment but not long before delivering an uppercut to the female. War Angemon takes advantage of the distracted Virus and slashes at him with his sword. The possessed artificial phases out and slammed his fists across War Angemon's back. The angelic warrior of hope falls back onto the ground.
"Takeru hasn't improved at all. But you, Hikari. You're a different matter. I know you're not giving it your all. Show me more of your in depth power."
"You want it…? Well, Virus. You're going to get it."
Mystic Celesta stands up as she powers up a white aura. She took a stance, which brought memories to Virus' eyes. This was the same epic battle at the conclusion of the War Games. It's been twelve years in the making and neither side was going to back down.
(End theme)
"I have to give this my best shot," Mystic Celesta thought. "He's come back stronger. Not just that but he has been upgraded with Millenniumon's dark essence. Only my purifying light can penetrate through his darkness."
"No matter what you try, Hikari. The darkness shall sweep away your precious light."
The two rivals prepared themselves with neither taking their eyes off of each other.

Stadium Interdimension
-
Once finishing his immediate power up, Burizalor's form was much larger than before. The muscles on his body enlarged with veins appearing all across his body. His eyes, much like Virus', were purely crimson. Unlike Virus, there were some distinct chances of his appearance. A pair of demonic wings sprouted from his back and a pair of horns formed on his head. A black aura of electricity surged through his powered up form. A large crater formed under his feet.
Davis and Veemon looked on in utter disbelief. This was certainly not the same Burizalor they came to expect. Having only fought him briefly, Davis still hasn't seen the sheer horrors this monster was capable of. Henry and Terriermon watched with utter horror. Even the cocky Terriermon couldn't utter a single witty comment. Keke stood her ground while keeping herself together and not showing any fear in her eyes.
"Ah, there! You can surely thank Millenniumon for this. My creator has been so good to me."
"Wait, you mean Millenniumon created you?!" asked Henry.
"That's correct, Tamer. Mutalior, my dearest father, and myself were amongst the first Corrupts to be created from Millenniumon's essence. He gave us birth and we're grateful to even seek refuge in this plane of existence."
"Wait a minute! I don't understand why you would help Saitou since it was you that caused his breakdown!" Davis exclaimed. "I was told about it through Sora before we came into this cave."
"Ah, yes, dearest Saitou. Virus and myself launched this plan. Millenniumon helped to release us from our prison. This is our last chance to redeem ourselves and kill you retched children!"
"With that out of the way, I have another question. I take it you knew of earth before you even considered destroying," Henry continued on.
"You are a curious boy, aren't you? Yes, I supplied the digimon to the crazed human fanatics. Those humans were the ones who tortured the hopeless fools. I merely just was the supplier. Nothing more. Now that I've quit my position as a supplier, I seek conquest and power. Ever since I learned of the Digi-Destineds' crests, ultimate power has been my one goal. Now, that's enough chitchat I say. I think it's time I get down to business and take care of you fools myself!"
"Ha. Well, I hate to break it to you pal, but we've come prepared. Veemon! Get ready!"
"Right!"
"Watch this, Burizalor. I bet you've been paying well enough attention during our recent fights."
"Terriermon! Time to bio-merge!"
"Hear that baldy? We're kicking your pale butt!"
"In honor of my father, Yamato Ishida, I won't back down against the likes of you," Keke growled.
"Interesting, so you fools have means to reach higher levels. Good. Because I was beginning to think if you were worth my time."
"Since Tai scared the living pants off of you with Omega X, allow us to introduce Ultima X, the warrior extraordinaire!"
"Ultima X…"
(Play Final Fantasy VII theme Battle Theme)
As soon as Davis stopped with the introduction, he held his D-3 and became engulfed by a bright column of light. The same light, too, engulfed Veemon. Followed by him were Henry and Terriermon being pulled together by a bright green aura barrier.
"Terriermon BIOMERGE!!"
"Veemon! FUSION SHINKA!!"
Henry transformed into a stream of green data. He and Terriermon were merged together into one entity. The tiny rookie himself underwent a great transformation as his mammal body was replaced by a heavy load of green armor. Massive, war arms replaced his once tiny limbs. His legs grew in gigantic stature. His face quickly digivolved through all three of his forms. Terriermon… Galgomon… Rapidmon… Back to Terriermon again. At last, his new head emerged. It was dog-like with armor covering parts of his face. Terriermon had now become a large war machine equipped with heavy artillery.
"Mega Gargomon!!"
Davis and Veemon were immediately merged together as they evolved into their fused warrior form. He emerges as a well-built warrior with powerful ki emitting from his body. His body is purely dark blue with a chiseled form. Parts of his newly developed body had armor, which covered his chest, arms and shoulders. His face was similar to Xveemon but with a few of Davis' facial features. The fused fighter throws out a few punches with rapid speed.
"MEGA VEEMON!!"
"Hmph, so this is it? Where's Ultima X?" Burizalor sighed. "This is certainly quite amusing."
"Mega Veemon!! CHOU SHINKA!!"
A coat of data engulfed Mega Veemon in order for him to undergo his next evolution. This next form would be a sight to behold. Blue metallic arm formed around his arms and the same applies for his legs. After that, his body became embedded with silver armor equipped with glider-wings and a pair of claws extracted from each hand. His face was then covered by a facemask similar to Imperialdramon's, but a visor shielded his eyes. Attached to his right hip is a light saber.
"SABER VEEMON!!"
"So, are you through yet…?"
"SHUT IT, PUNK! This is just the beginning! Saber Veemon! UPGRADE SHINKA!!"
With another data coating surrounding him, the warrior's body became encased in white armor similar to Imperialdramon Paladin Mode. His arms and legs became built for battle with claws scathed out. His face was covered in armor and encased with a visor over his eyes. An enormous sword blade materialized in front of the warrior. He takes it and unsheathes the sword to reveal a long-tipped blade. On his back was a pair of glider wings that were longer in wingspan than an albatross.
"ULTIMA X!!"
"Now, that's kick butt," Mega Gargomon commented through Henry. "Not as kick ass as me but yeah, Ultima X rocks!"
"Hey, I can't let you boys have all the fun," Keke said while powering up an aura.
"So, what do you have to say now, smart ass?" Ultima X said to Burizalor.
"Not bad, but even that still won't save you. Since Millenniumon has bestowed me with a portion of his power, my power has gone up tremendously. I'd say even a level three fusion warrior would have a hard time handling me."
"Well, I am at about that range," Ultima X thought. "Then again, I can raise it up to a digital fusion four power level."
"Now before we get started, allow me to acquaint the little girl with subordinates of mine. ARISE MY CULTIVARMON!"
Following the overlord's command, green little Martian-like monsters burrowed out from the ground. Each one possessed a toothy grin and each shared a bloodlust for torture.
"Ick! I have to fight these things?!" Keke gagged. "Gross!"
"Don't worry, Keke. You should handle these guys on your own. Mega Gargomon will be there when you need him."
"You can count on me, Keke."
"Thanks, but I'm sure I can take these losers myself," sighed Keke.
"That leaves just you and me, Burizalor. Tai and Dimitri beat you before. Now, it's my turn to finish where they left off. I'm sending you back to limbo and hope you stay there as a permanent resident."
"Such bold words, Ultima X. Let's just see you carry through on your threat! HA!!"
Burizalor launches himself forward and throws out an array of punches at Ultima X. Surprisingly, the overlord was pushing Ultima X back. Each blow was causing the fusion warrior to put up a defense.
"Damn! I've got to stay on my feet! He's not kidding when he said that his power grew!"
"See? I told you! Never overlook me, the terror of the digital universe!"
With that said, Burizalor's wings spread and launched his prehensile tail at the warrior. He attempted to snare Ultima X by the throat to choke him out.
"Now, hold still!"
"Ha, so I can become your prey? Never!"
(End theme)
Elsewhere, Keke attacked the Cultivarmon with an array of martial attacks. She threw out punches and kicks to knock away the tiny critters. Even though they were each at an ultimate level, the girl was easily handling them on by herself. Mega Gargomon grabbed a swarm of Cultivarmon and threw him onto the ground. With one gigantic step, the towering mega crushed a large majority of the monsters.
"Heh. Heh. Squish! That takes care of those nasty roaches!" Mega Gargomon said through Terriermon. "Don't look now, Terriermon. There's plenty of more ahead!"
With Henry's warning foretold, Mega Gargomon turned to find more Cultivarmon sprouting out of the ground. This would prove to be very frustrating for the mega and the digi-girl.
"Crap! There's more coming!"
"Don't worry, Mega Gargomon. We can take care of these guys. It's Davis and Veemon I'm a little worried about."
Burizalor swooped down onto Ultima X and lashed his tail across. Ultima X caught it just in time and pulls out his sword. He goes to slice the monster's tail off but Burizalor saw this through. He quickly phases out and reappears above the warrior. He puts his hands together and launches an energy blast down on his adversary. Ultima X sensed the attack coming and barely managed to move away. Burizalor took advantage of this and u-turned around Ultima X. He comes up behind Ultima X and drives an elbow into his back for good measure.
"ACK! Damn, he's too fast!"
"Not only has my power increased but so has my speed. Bless you, Millenniumon."
"Tell him that I'm not welcome!" Ultima X lashed around.
He took his sword and went to stab Burizalor, but the overlord flew out with his wings being spread out like a gargoyle.
"You can't run for long, you pale bastard!"
"I'm just only beginning, Daisuke. The end will soon come for you."

Back at the ground zero battle with Doomsdramon
-
Back at the ground zero site away from any major neighboring cities, a face off was currently taking place at the moment. Doomsdramon stood at one side of the battlefield fully recovered and back to one whole piece. Omega X, Crimson Gallantmon and the others looked on from the other side. Even the combined efforts of Tai and Takato weren't enough to completely destroy the beast, as long as he possesses the seven digicore pieces.
Doomsdramon makes another step forward and chuckled deeply with a devious thought running through his mind.
"It's time, digi-pests. Time for me to put you out of your miseries. I'll go ahead and kill you all off at once."
"I don't think so! Not on my watch, pal!" Omega X retorted.
"Damn, I don't want to die like this…" JP sighed.
"We're not going to die," Kouichi assured the older boy. "We're going to make it through. I just know it."
"Digi-Destined. Tamers. Legendary Warriors. You won't have to worry much longer about the earth's fate. The Synisters won't really be necessary to wipe out the human race. I'll do that myself if need be."
As Doomsdramon said that, one of the digicore orbs illuminated with dark negative energy. Omega X immediately saw through to this and turned around to face the group. Small holes appeared around his sides and out emerged an array of missiles.
(Play Mega Megan X OST theme Vile Theme)
"EVERYONE!! GET BACK!!"
"APOCALYPSE MISSILES!!" the dragon beast roared.
As the missiles were sent across the landscape, the mega digimon gathered about to carry off the weaker individuals of the group. That means the likes of Cody, Joe, Armadillomon and Gomamon were carried. Omega X, Crimson Gallantmon, Kaiser Greymon and Magna Garurumon took off to carry away other members of the team. Luckily, they were able to dodge the missiles in time. But not for long as Doomsdramon speed blitzed through the entire group. Mummymon, Arukenimon and Black Gatomon were blown back from the impact from the missiles.
Doomsdramon took it upon himself by launching himself across his adversaries. First, Kaiser Greymon and Magna Garurumon were the first become victims of the dragon's assault. Next, Doomsdramon delivered elbow shots into Crimson Gallantmon and Sakuyamon. The beast launched himself at Pikkan and drives a knee into his chest. Cyberleomon received a tail lash courtesy of the demonic dragon. BW was clotheslined viciously from out of nowhere by Doomsdramon. Doomsdramon decided to play even dirtier as he flew out and punched Mummymon away with a single fist.
"No! Mummymon!" Arukenimon cried out.
"Damn! This guy sure doesn't like to play fair!" replied Black Gatomon.
Finally, Doomsdramon appears behind Omega X and tapped him on the shoulder. The warrior turned to be met with a kick to his face. The kick had enough force to send the level four warrior plummeting down into the surface below. He levitates down on a tower of rubble and gazed down on his dirty work. Nearly everyone within the group was laid out. Even Crimson Gallantmon, Pikkan, BW, Cyberleomon and the Zeta warriors were put down. The humans and the rookie digimon were safe underneath the bodies of the higher level digimon.
(End theme)
Suddenly, there was a tail wagging across the rubble. Doomsdramon gazes down to find Omega X emerging from under the rubble. A look of defiance crossed Omega X's face.
"Don't… think this is over just yet, Doomsdramon."
"Just rest in peace already, Taichi Kamiya. Your persistence is futile."
The dragon fades out from sight and instantly reappears with his back turned against Omega X. The warrior of courage didn't turn his body around yet he managed to keep a close eye on him.
"Make it easy on yourself, Taichi. Release the burden placed on your shoulders. There will be many pleasant things to see when you go to heaven."
"Ha. You're a good joker. Nah, I'm going to make you experience that pleasant experience, Doomsdramon."
"Now that's funny," Doomsdramon chuckled. "Just what the hell can you do in your condition?"
As Doomsdramon turned around to chop Omega X down to size with a hand swipe, the warrior phased out. He felt two arms wrap around the spikes on his back. He gasped and turned around to find Omega X attached onto his back.
"Hey! Quit fooling around, Taichi! Let me go!"
"Like hell I will!"
"I'm going to kill you once I break free!"
"Yamato. I'm preparing to use the same technique you used when you tried to blow the hell out of the D-Reaper! Hell, this was the same trick I tried using on Jax a few days ago. But, this time I'll make sure I get it right!"
"GRAH!! WHAT?! ARE YOU INSANE?!" Doomsdramon roared.
Suddenly, a sphere of light appeared over Omega X's chest and engulfed his entire body. Soon Doomsdrmaon found himself trapped within an orange barrier as if it were ready to go off in an explosion. More energy was being absorbed directly through the warrior's radiant form.
"NO! YOU'VE LOST IT, TAICHI!"
Joe, Cody, Jeri, Calumon, Armadillomon and Gomamon looked on helplessly. Crimson Gallantmon was the first to get to his feet and looked across. He gasped since he knew what Omega X was aiming for. BW was the next to rise slowly from under the rubble.
"Tai! Don't do it!" Crimson Gallantmon called out.
"What is he doing?" BW asked.
"Tai is planning to convert his life force into energy, and blowing himself up in the process!"
"Damn! No way!"
"I remember seeing this before," Sakuyamon said as she regained consciousness. "We saw Matt perform this same skill to nearly wipe the D-Reaper out. It was in vain at that time."
"Plus, Tai used this against the Super Artificial," Gallantmon said. "It failed last time. I just hope Tai channels enough, but he'll die in the process!"
"No! He can't do that!" Jeri exclaimed.
"Tai's flipped and this is the most reckless move I've ever seen him do!" Joe said.
"Don't go through it, Tai! It doesn't have to be this way!" Gallantmon pleaded for the warrior.
"No… This is the only thing I can do," Omega X sighed while maintaining hold on the beast. "I this fails, then I'm sorry. I'm really sorry, but you'll have to carry on without me. Rescue Max at any costs. No matter what the consequences!"
"TAI!! DON'T!!" the Tamers called out.
"HERE GOES!! IF I DIE DOOMSDRAMON, THEN I'M TAKING YOU WITH ME!!"
"CURSE YOU, HUMAN!!"
Omega X was just moments from completing his task but he was immediately stopped short by a telepathic message. It was from none other than his former rival himself.
(Play Mega Man X theme Zero's Theme)
"Taichi!"
"Ma… Yamato?! What the hell?!"
"Cut the crap! Do you really think that out of date technique will even work on that guy? If you die, then our world not to mention every digital world will be destroyed. Your son will eventually die if Saitou has his way. You've come too far to consider throwing in the towel already. That's not the Tai I knew and beaten up for the two decades."
With that said, Metalla X immediately appeared at his Super Level Four status glory. Omega X turned around and gasped in surprise.
"Matt!"
He released his grip on Doomsdramon and allowed him to take flight into the air. A malevolent grin forms across Omega X's chagrin.
"WHOA! Is that really, Matt?!" Gallantmon exclaimed. "He.. He's even reached the level four status?!"
"Unbelivable! He has to be equal with Tai," Sakuyamon said.
"This is just what we needed. Two super level four warriors on our side," BW laughed. "Awesome!"
"I should have known that bastard would do it," Pikkan said as he emerged from the rubble.
"So, what's your take on this, Joe?" Cody asked.
"I just think we might stand a chance."
"Well I'll be," Armadillomon said. "Two Super level four cowboys saddling up for the high noon showdown."
"Armadillomon. May I suggest The Good, the Bad and the Digi?" Gomamon joked.
"All right, Matt. Let's finally see your worth as a Super level four warrior," Gallantmon said. "Those two have already surpassed me even as Crimson Gallantmon. Heck, I wish I could pull off that trick. I could be a Super level four if I wanted to."
Metalla X walks across the battlefield as he kept his eyes focused onto Doomsdramon.
(End theme)
"Now, the real fight begins, Tai."
"The real fight begins now? Yeah, but this guy will blow your mind once you fight him. Even as a Super level four warrior, I couldn't even completely destroy this jabornie."
"Ha. Do you really think I'm going to come here without a backup plan?"
"You have a backup plan?"
"Yes, now listen-"
"YOO-HOO! Hey, guys! We've finally made it!" a so familiar voice calls out from the heavens.
Everyone, including Doomsdramon, turned to find Rosemon flying down with Mimi hanging on by her right arm. Also following along with them were Phoenixmon, Sora, Dimitri, Izzy and Hercules Kabuterimon. Metalla X stood frozen and slapped his forehead. Even Omega X was surprised to find his wife arriving at the scene.
"Sora?! Mimi?! Izzy?! Dimitri?!" Omega X freaked out. "Just what are you guys doing here?!"
"What else? To see you kick some ass and oh… to take the digicores once you flatten this guy," Sora said.
"Matt! How have you been behaving?" Mimi giggled.
"Woman… I can't believe you're here. This is dangerous territory!"
"So? I've been in much more dangerous frontlines than this."
"I'm afraid not. They're dealing with the final Millenniumon beast," Sakuyamon informed them. "All the other six monsters have been child's play compared to this devil."
"Nah, my dad and Max's dad are going to beat this guy," Dimitri replied. "Just you wait and see."
"Amazing! We're witnessing history you guys. Mark this date. October 29, 2016. The day the earth bare witnessed the union of two Super level four warriors."
"Okay, we get it, Izzy," Hercules Kabuterimon sighed.
"Sorry, but I had to be a little overdramatic. I'm going to add this to the list of important dates I've stored since our first adventure in the digital world. Shoot, I ought to take a picture of them and add it to my wallpaper."
"Izzy. Let's get serious here," Sora said. "Matt and Tai are out there risking their lives to save us. What's important is that we live through to save Max."
"I know… But for now, we'll leave this up to those two."
Mimi looked across at the battlefield and stared in awe at the two warriors. Metalla X had caught her complete attention the most.
"You're looking quite sharp, Matt. You look adorable as a wolfy," the fashion woman giggled. "You're even sharper than Tai!"
"What was that?!" Sora calls out. "Mimi. You better take that back. Tai looks much hotter as a dino-dragon!"
With that said, the two young ladies got into each other's faces and started to have a verbal spat about their respective husbands. Everyone else looked on with sweat drops over their anime foreheads.
"My Matt is much sharper!"
"No way! Tai's sharper!"
"Well, I bet my husband can please me better in bed!"
"Are you challenging me, Miss Fashion Queen?!"
"Flat chest!"
"Oh, that does it! It's own now!"
"Um, Dimitri. Does your mother always get like this?" BW whispered into the boy's ears.
"Yeah, all the time… It's quite sad. She even manages to scare dad and he's not scared of anything."
Just then, Mummymon stepped forward and placed his hands on the two ladies' shoulders. A grin forms on the digimon's face especially since he was getting closer to two gorgeous ladies.
"Now, now, ladies. Let's talk this over. I'm sure a nice, quiet conversation would work just fine. So what do you say?"
The ladies could only respond with one course of action. WHAM!! Sora and Mimi's fists connected with the sides of Mummymon's head. His face contorted in pain as the fists caved his head in. Arukenimon sighed hopelessly.
"I'm seriously considering leaving this idiot for good," sighed Arukenimon.
"Not on your lifetime, bandage boy!" Mimi and Sora exclaimed in unison.
"I… I just couldn't resist helping two lovely ladies," Mummymon muttered.
Back on the battlefield, the two Super four warriors levitated to face off with Doomsdramon. The beast wondered what they had in store for him. They turned around to face him. The warrior pair immediately powered up with golden auras surrounding their bodies. They let out earth-shattering screams to caused the heavens to tremble under their sheer might.
"Damn! Are you guys feeling this?!" Pikkan asked.
"Their power together is monstrous!" Cyberleomon exclaimed.
"Wh-What an incredible overpowering feeling," Gallantmon said.
"Wow! It's almost as if the whole earth is shaking," Dimitri said as he tried to maintain balance under the trembling surface.
The warriors continued their ongoing power-up and sent off a golden ray of light across the landscape. Everyone looked on with awe across their faces. Doomsdramon was thrown back by the shockwave of their combined power-up. He managed to chuckle at first sight of the warrior pair.
"No matter how many small fry there are, they will always remain small fry!"
As soon as they finished powering up, the Super four warriors kept their main focus directly onto Doomsdramon. What exactly does Metalla X have in mind? There was only one way to find out and he would reveal that shortly.

(Play Digimon Tamers OST Tamer Action)
The battle between the angelic pair and the demonic artificial was still underway. Virus flew up into the air and raised his hands to form two energy discs. He threw them down one by one. War Angemon immediately saw these through and flew out to lure the discs away. This left Mystic Celesta to create a protective barrier to block out the energy disc. She looked up to find that Virus was no longer airborne.
"Where did he go?!"
She immediately broke her barrier and flies out across the desert. Suddenly, she felt a dark following along behind her. Virus was flying out behind the warrior and launched himself at her. Mystic Celesta leaps over the artificial at the last second and delivers a kick to the back of his head. Virus retaliates with an energy projectile and sends it out towards Mystic Celesta. She barely manages to slice it in half with her sword.
"Very good, Hikari. You have surpassed your lover Takeru."
"That doesn't change anything. You're using the same attacks you used the last time we've fought. Try something original!"
"With pleasure," Virus chuckled.
As soon as he said that, Virus puts out a hand and a long, sharp object formed in his right hand. It turned out to be a sword but rather it was of a dark element unlike Mystic Celesta's light. The artificial concentrated on the dark and channeled his ki through it.
"What's he doing? Yeah, this is a new technique he's using. I assume he's channeling his ki through it and plans to power it up to its maximum. All right, Virus. Now you've proven to be my worthy adversary again. But, I will triumph as long as I believe in myself."
"There. Is that original enough for you?"
"Very. Let's just see whose sword triumphs."
"IKE!!"
Virus flies out at his adversary and slashes across with his energy sword. An energy slash is created from the sword and cuts through the sands across. Mystic Celesta manages to counter it by slashing her light sword across into a cross-shape. The cross-slash counters the single slash and cancels it. The artificial takes flight up into the air and cupped his hands together.
"Hikari! Heads up! I'm sure you've become familiar with your brother's own technique! TERRA-"
As an orange energy sphere formed within his palms, Mystic Celesta immediately flies up to meet with Virus. The artificial continued his chant until he reached the '-RA'. After that, he quickly teleported out from sight and caught Mystic Celesta off guard.
"No! My brother's Time Warp!"
"-BEAM!!"
Turning back towards her opponent, Mystic Celesta found him launching the copied Terra Beam towards her. She quickly takes her sword and slashes through the massive beam. The beam is cut into two halves like a knife cutting through hot butter.
"Damn. He's not kidding. If he hadn't gained that power up, I would have taken him easily. But Millenniumon has really boosted his strength and speed to the max. I just hope Takeru was fortunate to dodge that energy disc."
"HIKARI!! LOOK OUT!!"
Without warning, the second energy disc flies out from the far distance. War Angemon was seen in the distance with the energy disc following him out. Virus saw his attack nearing War Angemon and moved his hand across. The energy disc maneuvered around War Angemon and made a u-turn. The artificial directly pointed it out towards War Angemon. Using telekinesis, he directly moved the energy disc without even touching it. War Angemon gasped as the energy disc was close to cutting him down in half. He sends out an energy blast to cancel out the energy disc.
"HOLY BEAM!!"
Virus grunted in frustration at the sight of his technique easily being wiped out. He looks across to being met with the two angelic warriors.
"Nice try, Virus. But it's taking to take more than those petty tricks to defeat us," War Angemon said.
"Give it up. Admit defeat and just let us pass through to save Max."
These threats did not phase the artificial one bit and he started to chuckle to himself.
"You two are still as naive as ever. I'm not through yet. As I can see, you two are already becoming fatigued."
"Don't kid yourself. We're just using a small portion of our own energy," Mystic Celesta hissed.
"Don't kid yourselves. You were panicking once I launched my assault. Clearly you weren't expecting me to become just as fast and strong as you two. I've only been taking my sweet time until I wore you down."
"What?! No, you're lying!" War Angemon exclaimed.
"Takeru. I maybe a heartless bastard with no shred of remorse but I am no liar. Care for me to demonstrate your flaws? Very well then…"
As soon as he said that, Virus flies across his two angelic adversaries and swiftly phases through past them. He puts out one hand and held his sword in the other. He slashes across with hiss word to create a pentagon-shaped star. Next, Virus created an energy ball through his other hand and puts it out in front of the pentagon star.
"Hikari! It's another new technique! Get back!"
"No, Takeru!"
"You're stronger than I am. You can take him if you believe!"
"But…"
"I'll be fine. Just don't give up. You've beaten him before and you can do it again."
"That was only because of your encouragement…"
"It doesn't make a difference, Hikari. You can do it. Just don't… give up," War Angemon said a smile.
"NO, TAKERU!!"
"You're through, Angel of Hope!! DARK RITUAL CHAOS!!"
(End theme)
Just as Virus called out his attack, a massive dark energy blast shoots across at full speed. The blast covered nearly a large area of the desert landscape engulfed War Angemon head on. The angelic warrior screamed out once the blast took it's full effect. An explosion occurred over where War Angemon once levitated. Mystic Celesta looks across and lets out angst of tears.
"TAKERU!!"
The female dropped her sword and fell to her knees. She felt her knees tremble nervously and her mind was becoming unfocused.
"No… Takeru… I…"
"Well, isn't this a dying shame? The once powerful angel of light is down on her knees. The savior of the two worlds has lost her will to fight. How the mighty have fallen," Virus taunted the female. "Just look at you, Hikari. You're pathetic. I don't see how Taichi can look to you as any use. He's far surpassed you and now… So have I once again."
Having heard enough from Virus' bickering, Mystic Celesta rose to her feet and lets out a deep sigh. A radiant pink-white light engulfed her body. Virus watched as she levitated to where the smoke cloud dissipated from where the blast detonated. She stops to find TK and Patamon lying on the ground while covered in dirt. She hunches over and places a hand over TK's near dead form.
"Just what are you doing, Hikari? I don't have time for this. Come! Let us continue where we left off!"
"Virus… You once took Takeru's life. I'm not about to allow you to do it, AGAIN!!" Mystic Celesta screamed out.
(Play Inuyasha OST 1 theme Fight to the Death)
The teary-eyed warrior sends a shock wave through the holy aura surrounding her body. The artificial stops as he felt the shock wave passes through him. He was quickly pushed back by a tremendous force and noticed his nose bleeding. Yes, a simple wave from the female's own aura had done some damage to Virus. Mystic Celesta levitated into the skies to meet head on with Virus. She launched herself across at the dark artificial and goes for a head-on attack. Virus was ready for her with his dark saber but she managed to phase out just in time.
"What?! She's gone!"
"OVER HERE!!"
Immediately turning around, Virus turned around and was met with a direct right fist from Mystic Celesta. She grabbed Virus and delivers vicious punches all across his face. After that, she head butted him across his forehead and busted him open in the process. Mystic Celesta releases Virus from her grasp and tosses him across the desert. She phases out and reappears behind the artificial. With one swift kick, Mystic Celesta drove a knee directly into Virus' gut and knocked the wind out of him. His eyes nearly bulged out of his head from the impact. She followed it up with an elbow across his back. As Virus plummeted down to the ground, Mystic Celesta saw this as an opportunity to launch an attack. She puts out her hands and sends out a holy energy blast down upon her hated adversary.
"HOLY BEAM!!"
(End theme)
The blast made its mark and reduced the area where Virus was laying into an overlapping explosion. Mystic Celesta saw this through as enough time to recover and watched as a smoke cloud blanketed across the crater. She turned around to find TK and Patamon still buried under where they were laying.
"Dorothy. Rei. I hope you two are doing all right now."

Elsewhere across the desert
-
The swarm of Chibi-Viruses searched around a rocky canyon ridge in search for both Dorothy and Rei. They attempted to pick up on Dorothy's ki and hear out for any sound vibration. So far, they've been unsuccessful. Hiding behind a rock wall face was Dorothy, who held Rei tightly against her.
"Are they here…?" Rei whispered.
"Yes, now keep quiet."
"Sorry…"
"Rei. I'm going to leave you here. Don't you move a muscle and keep quiet."
"You're actually going to fight those things?"
"Of course. You want them to catch us then?"
Well, no…"
"Ok, then. I'm off to pick these little bastards apart. Stay tight."
Rei gives a nod to Dorothy and quietly kneels down next to the cliff ledge. The blonde-girl takes flight out of hiding and calls out to the Chibi-Viruses.
"Hey, over here, you little midgets!"
"Kiki?! Ki! Ki!" the Chibi-Viruses screeched in unison.
They took flight across the mountains and completely surrounded Dorothy. The D-Reaper reincarnate remained calm despite the odds against her. One Chibi-Virus flew forward and threw out a punch, which was easily caught by Dorothy's hand. She retaliates with a chop across it's neck. The blow of her chop decapitated the Chibi-Virus easily and watched his headless body explode into dust. The other Chibi-Viruses looked around at each other and gulped.
"Well, boys. Who wants to join him?" Dorothy asked with a devious grin.
"Kiki! Ki! Ki!"
The Chibi-Viruses immediately retreated across the mountains but Dorothy wasn't prepared to let them escape that easily. She boosted her energy and sped past the fleeing miniature bio-artificials. She stops in front of them with arms crossed.
"Eh. Eh. You guys aren't leaving the party that soon, hmmm?"
"Kiki! Ki!"
"Can't understand a thing you guys are saying, but you are really starting to annoy me," she growled with a vein forming on her head.
"Attack formation!" a Chibi-Virus screeched.
Following his command, the lead Chibi-Virus remained at the center with the others flying out in all directions. The leader cupped his hands together. Another put its hands out and others were set to use some of the inherited techniques learned from some of the most powerful digimon known across the digital worlds.
"TERRA BEAM!!"
"GIGA CANNON!!"
"CRIMSON LIGHTING!!"
"ICE BARRIER BEAM!!"
"TERRA FORCE!!"
"HEAT VIPER!!"
"RIVER OF POWER!!"
"CORRUPT HOLY BEAM!!"
With all of these powerful attacks coming from all directions at once, Dorothy remained calm and closed her eyes. The Chibi-Viruses giggled deviously once their attacks were coming closer to hitting their target. She immediately flashed her eyes upon and puts up a red barrier around herself. The attacks dispersed against the barrier. Now, Dorothy was starting to laugh but in a rather an evil manner.
"It's sad. I fought some of your brothers when we were dealing with Lamiamon. I must say you guys, even with Millenniumon's powers, are still no match for me. I guess you guys are unaware of what I used to be in my previous life. Let's just say that spread fear even amongst the Digi-Destined and their allies. Now, you guys will experience that same fear first hand."
As she said, her hands became coated with red ki energy. She brings her hands forward and prepares to launch an assault on the frightened Chibi-Viruses.
"That's it. That's the look, my dear little friends. Experience fear first hand. Heh. Heh."

Battling across the heavens was the Milleniumon-powered Burizalor and Ultima X. The overlord threw out an energy blast and directly shot it forward. The fused warrior out a hand out and slapped the projectile away in time. Burizalor shoot himself across and quickly phases out from sight. There was a sudden pause for a few moments until Burizalor reappears above Ultima X.
(Play Star Wars Episode 1 theme The Battle Rages On)
"DEATH WAVE!!"
Burizalor uses two fingers and creates a powerful wave projectile, which struck Ultima X head on. The warrior attempted to block it out but it was too much for him to withstand. Ultima X was sent plummeting down to the surface. Fortunately, Ultima X landed on his feet swiftly and looked up at his enemy.
"You're a persistent one, Daisuke. Nothing seems to bring you down to your knees."
"I'm not the type of give up that easily."
"Yes, the goggle heads are always the stubborn types. I agree. You leave me no choice but to end this quick before you have a chance to regain your strength."
With that said, Burizalor's wings spread out and he takes flight across the skies. The warrior stood his ground and questioned the overlord's tactics. Burizalor points his finger and shoots out a beam. Rather than blast Ultima X, he shot the ground and immediately was carving out a circle around where Ultima X was standing.
"What is he doing?! He's not even bothering to fight me anymore. I don't like the looks of this!"
"Now! Here's a technique that I've picked up while Millenniumon bestowed upon me great power. DEATH ALCHEMY!!"
"What?!"
Suddenly, the circle around Ultima X started to tremble and a dark column of light emerged from out of the ground. Ultima X was too late from maneuvering away plus the circle Burizalor created put up a barrier to trap the warrior from within. Once the dark light column engulfed Ultima X, he screamed out horribly before his body started to break down. He defused back into Veemon and Davis. With the smoke clearing, Burizalor levitated down to check on the damage he left. A smile forms on his face as soon as he found Davis and Veemon buried underneath sand.
(End theme)
"Well, so much for being a worthy opponent. Bless you, Millenniumon. With your help, I was able to redeem myself and crush this insect. Now, I shall go and finish off those other two weaklings. Today marks the beginning of the end of the Digi-Destined! One goggle head down, three more to go."
As Burizalor started taking off into the air, Davis and Veemon were still left unconscious under the sand. Even Ultima X couldn't withstand a devastating assault of a Millenniumon-possessed Burizalor.
"Davis… Davis… Wake up… It's not over yet…"
"Who's that?"
"Heh. Don't tell me you've already forgotten about me already."
"… Is that you? Ichijouji?"
"Yes, in spirit."
"Ken… I don't look too hot right now. That creep easily blew me off with an attack. Millenniumon really pumped Burizalor with some kind of super steroids."
"Which is why I cam here to help you. My body may not be alive, but my spirit resides within you, old friend."
"Tell me what I can do to recover…"
"Very well…"

Interdimension Desert

Mystic Celesta kneeled beside TK and Patamon with tears in her eyes. She had managed to feel a heartbeat from TK despite nearly being killed by Virus' assault.
"I'm glad you're able to pull through. Oh, TK. I don't know how I could live if you were to die again. But, don't worry. I've already taken care of the problem."
Just as Mystic Celesta took her husband's hand, a sword came shooting down from out of nowhere and pierced right through her chest. She remained frozen in shock for a few moments before collapsing onto the ground. Not a single word or scream was uttered from out of her mouth. She didn't even have time to react since she was solely worried for her lover. The female warrior's power rapidly decreased and resulted her to separate back into her two forms. Now, Kari and Gatomon were found lying across the sand alongside TK and Patamon.
"My, my. Isn't this quite touching? A Kodak moment worth remembering."
Virus levitated over the fallen lovers of Hope of Light. A sick, twisted grin formed across his face at the sheer pleasure of Hikari defeated by his hands.
"You should kept your eye on me and not worry about your dear husband, Hikari. I thought you would learn better by now, but you're still that hopeless child that doesn't have the stomach to lay waste to an enemy. You brought this upon yourself, Hikari. Much like Takeru before, I will send you to a place where you will forever be most comfortable… your own grave."
With that said, Virus pointed a finger over his head and was gathering an large portion of dark energy. He was charging up for the Death Ball technique, which was an old favorite of Burizalor. His grin grew even wider once he made eye contact with Hikari and Takeru's fallen forms.
"Light. Hope. Prepare yourselves. For darkness and despair shall overcome your dreams. Once I've taken you out of the game, then I shall focus on Dorothy and that pitiful girl. After that, I'm going to sit back and watch the lightshow when the Synisters consume your pathetic world. Taichi! There's no hope for you anymore! Humankind will be just another footnote in history. Oh, Millenniumon. How should I be thankful to you? I shall redeem myself of the humiliation I suffered at the hands of this wench! SAYANORA, HIKARI!!"

While standing guard outside the tunnel, Sonja stopped for an immediate moment as she felt her heart beating rapidly. She placed a hand over her chest and became very uneasy.
"What's wrong? Something you ate?" Impmon asked.
"I just suddenly felt my heart beat just now. My conscience is suddenly telling me that I help Davis. He could be in trouble!"
"Now, now. Those guys should be fine. They're ready to enter… Oh right. I never even considered the fact that Saitou could a tough opponent."
"No, it has nothing to do with Saitou, Shintomon. It's… All I know is that Davis needs my help!"
With that said, the artificial woman leaps out of the hovercraft and rushed into the cavern.
"Sonja! Wait! Don't go just yet!"
"I'm sorry! But if my husband is in danger, then I have to be there for him. Besides, he would do the same for me. He helped pull me through my grief over the loss of my brother."
"Hell, if you're going, I might as well get some good exercise in," Impmon said. "Shintomon. You can take over our post, kapeesh?"
"Hey, wait a minute! You're implying that I stay here and baby sit Kazu, Kenta and Suzie?! Not to mention looking after this Spell caster's body?!"
"That's right!!" the duo exclaimed.
With that said, Sonja and Impmon rushed through inside the cavern. The higher digimon sat down on the hovercraft hood top and looks up into the night stars above.
"How did I get myself stuck in this mess? Taichi. Yamato. I hope you two manage to defeat that monster soon. We only have very little time left."
Dashing across through the caverns, Sonja was sprinting like never before. Nothing was going to stop her from finding Davis and saving him from certain doom. Impmon could barely catch up with her.
"Hey, lady! Why don't you slow down for the little people?!"
"Sorry, but you're just going to go by your own instincts. I'm going by mine and I feel Davis' pain. He needs me!"
"No offense but I'm not feeling out on their- well, whatever the hell you call it."
"Ki."
"Right. How come I can't sense that from you, lady?"
"It's a long story, Impmon. There's no time for that now."
Just before they reached the spot where Davis' group was sucked in through the portals, Sonja made an immediate spot and examined the spot. Catching his breath, Impmon stopped beside the cavern wall and wiped beads of sweat from his forehead.
"Why are we stopping here?"
"They were last seen here."
"Huh? Last seen here? You mean they were just here before going into that whacko's lair?"
"No, they aren't even in the caverns anymore."
"You're losing me."
"They aren't here. My guess was that a portal sucked them in. It makes sense. If that's the case, Saitou's pretty good at stalling more time. But, the question is: Where were they transported?"
"Or maybe they fled out of here through some backdoor like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off…"
Before Impmon had a chance to finish, the female artificial snatched him by his bandana with one hand and strangles him. Her face contorted with a usual angry, scary female gesture.
"What was that?! What did you say?!"
"Um… ACK! Nothing."
"If you ever say anything about Davis again, I'll take my frustrations out on you! You got that?!"
Sonja tosses the rookie down onto the ground and snorted to herself. Suddenly, the two portals, which sucked Davis' group through, appeared before them. Both doorways opened and started to pull the two in. Impmon screamed out like a wailing child as he tried to hang onto a rock slab. However, Sonja had other plans. She was standing out in front of the doorway to the right.
"HEY! JUST WHAT ARE YOU DOING, LADY?! YOU'RE GOING TO GET SUCKED!"
"That's the whole point. Davis is inside the right doorway. I'm going in. He needs me and I have a feeling the enemy he's possibly facing is too much for him to take."
"What makes you think you can make a difference?!"
"I have to try at least. Impmon, why don't you quit babbling and make a difference. I'm sure the others could use your assistance."
"Through the other doorway?"
"That's right. Well, I'm off, Impmon. Wish me luck."
"WAIT!!"
Without replying back to the viral rookie, the raven-haired woman jumps through the portal to be transported to the interdimensional stadium world. Impmon had second thoughts but remembered Ai and Makoto.
"Ugh! I'm not about to let any bastards rampage this world! Not when I have Ai and Makoto still around to support! I'm doing this for them! Move over dimension, the King of the World is coming through! GERANIMO!!"
Hollering a loud tarzan cry, Impmon released his grip on the rock slab and goes flying through the left doorway. With both Impmon and Sonja gone, the portals quickly closed up. Now, they were willing to lend a hand to their comrades against the villainous duo. Sonja set out to not only offer assistance against Burizalor but also to aid her husband. Impmon was getting ready for perhaps his greatest challenge. Could even Beelzebumon stand a chance against Virus? Only Ai and Makoto could hope to motivate the viral rookie further.

Back at the ground zero battle with Doomsdramon
-
Basked in their golden light glory, Omega X and Metalla X kept their eye on Doomsdramon like hungry wolves. No pun-intended to Metalla X. The warrior of courage looks over to Metalla X to directly ask him.
"So, what do you say? Shall we get him, Matt?"
"Tai, you must know it, too."
"What are you talking about?"
"There isn't a chance in hell we're going to win like this. Not in our current forms individually. Now that he's absorbed the digicores, he's gained more power and holds the advantage over us."
Omega X took another look at Doomsdramon and read through on his current ki. It was still overwhelmingly powerful to say the least.
"Yeah, it's all coming from his digicores. But we still have to go through with this, Matt."
"That settles it then. Here's my plan. We're going to be using the Digital Fusion technique, Tai."
"What?!"
"You heard me right, Tai. Remember the crap I had to go through when you taught me the fusion dance? Well, I said I now want to go through with it. Hurry up and get ready!"
"What?! You want to do the fusion dance, Matt?! Really?!"
"You guys! They're going for it! The same technique TK and Davis used before," Gallantmon informed everyone.
"You mean they're actually going for it?!" asked Sora.
"The digital fusion dance perfected by the Repoids?!" Pikkan exclaimed. "Only a few have managed to successfully perfect."
"I hope Matt knows what he's doing because this could very well our best last shot of beating this bastard," BW said.
"I'm placing a bet that we'll be seeing either a supped-up Omnimon or an even greater force at hand. Whatever it maybe, I hope it's enough to bring down Doomsdramon."
With Metalla X returning to Omega X's aid, he has requested that he perform the fusion technique with himself and his former rival. But, a digital fusion between two Super level four warriors?! However, if this is successful, then the ultimate fusion warrior will be born. Could we be seeing the supped-up version of Omnimon or an even greater force?!
Meanwhile, Burizalor and Virus have buried their enemies after gaining more power through the dark god, Millenniumon. Burizalor prepares to finish off Mega Gargomon and Keke while Davis and Veemon are left lying. Can Ken's spirit and Sonja bring Ultima X back in the game? Will Impmon make it time to save Hikari and Takeru from being obliterated by Virus' Death Ball? Only about thirty-five minutes remain until the tunnel completes. Saitou is still waiting in the wings.
(Digimon Frontier second ending theme "an Endless Tale")
(Preview)
Tai/Omega X: Hiyas, everyone! It's me, Tai! Just wait until you get a load of Matt and myself when we perform the fusion dance at our strongest levels! A Super level four fused warrior!
Matt/Metalla X: This is our last shot! If this is successful, we'll make even Omnimon look like an ant in comparison.
Gallantmon: Doomsdramon's been gaining the upperhand since absorbing the digicores. If we hope to save Max, we have to go through this guy first!
Doomsdramon: No matter what, I'll still destroy you, warriors! I am the supreme monster with all the power of the shadow beasts!
Omega X & Metalla X: FUSION HA!!
Izzy: Prodigious! They've fused to an even greater entity than either Omnimon or Kaiser X! Just call him…
Voice: Just call me, Super 4 Kaiser X.
Sonja: Davis! I've arrived! You have to get back in the game and stop Burizalor. Together, we can win.
Davis/Ultima X: Babe… You're right! I'm through with this guy! Thanks to you and Ken's spirit, I'm still alive and ready to kick that bastard's ass!
Burizalor: But, how?! How have you recovered?!
Ultima X: While Sonja aids Mega Gargomon and Keke, I deal with Burizalor. Not to mention that Burizalor has summoned forth his clones in order to destroy and infect my friends! I won't let you succeed, Burizalor!
Virus: Whom do they call you, stranger?
Beelzebumon: Your worst nightmare.
Rei: Hey, why is my pendant glowing?! It's shining off some mysterious light!
Gatomon: Whatever it is, it's restoring our digital fusion powers!
Patamon: Yes! This is just what we needed!
Mystic Celesta: Takeru. We're back in the fight. Beelzebumon isn't going to last much longer at this rate!
War Angemon: This is your final stand, Virus!
Virus & Burizalor: You digi-fools will not win!!
Ultima X: We beg to differ!
Kaiser X: What's the matter, Doomsdramon? Is that fear I see upon your face? I don't blame you. Your wave of destruction ends here by my hand.
Dimitri: Be sure to check out this kick ass chapter entitled…

Digital Fusion Shinka!! The Ultimate Super Kaiser X!

Max: Finally, they've managed to arrive!
Saitou: Just in time before my movie ended.

At last, we finally get down to the final kick ass battles before the showdown in the caverns. We get three awesome fights rolled up into one chapter next time. For the first time since the D-Reaper saga, you get to see Kaiser X back in action and better than before! Super 4 Kaiser X is dedicated solely to Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta, who just recently had his debut on TV two weeks ago. At least in the States, that is. ((wink)) The next chapter could very well spell the final stand for both Virus and Burizalor. A lot will go down next time and this is just leading up to the eventual second round between Tai and Saitou in the caverns.
Don't forget that Millenniumon myself has yet to show up but give it time. Just let all these conflicts boil down until everything is settled. Until then, be sure to check back for the next exciting chapter. Peace!
