Assistant: Well Ronomon is back on his feat, but I think he has something planned for Renamon

(Ronomon walks into the room with a mischievous smile on his face)

Assistant: Okay, why are you smiling like that?

Ronomon: You will find out in 5…4…3…2…1…

(From the other room we hear Renamon yell, and Ronomon is out the front door in a heartbeat. In a few minutes Renamon come walking in, completely soaked.)

Renamon: Where?

Assistant: He just went out the front door.

Renamon: Come back here you #&, I want to have a few words with you.

(With that Renamon goes running out the door after Ronomon.)

Assistant: I better figure out what happened. Some times I swear they act like 6 year olds, minus that language they use. Well, before I go here is the disclaimer. I don't own digimon or the two shows where I get my concepts of alchemy and elemental bending. Those two shows are Full Metal Alchemist and Avatar, The Last Air Bender.

Chapter 9

Vampire Slayers

The group was finally in Rika's yard. When they first looked around it seemed nobody was there. They crept slowly through the yard, edging there way toward the alchemy circle that was currently growing with a black aura. Ronomon suddenly drew his swords and jumped on to the roof of Rika's house. Renamon quickly followed leaving Yamachi, Terriermon, and Guilmon watching from the yard. Renamon soon saw why Ronomon had jumped up there. She saw him staring down at the other end of the roof. There stood their most recent adversary, the vampire digimon, Myotismon. He was just standing there, starring down the two rookie digimon. He then chuckled and said in a cynical voice, "So, these are the ones I must stop from damaging the alchemy circle, and here I thought I would at least be fighting a champion."

Renamon let out a low growl while Ronomon said, "Tell me, is the digimon who sent you here named SatinRenamon."

"Hmmm, you seem to be familiar with that helpful fox digimon, SatinRenamon." Myotismon said while he showed a crooked smile.

"I knew it, do you know what her plan is, or are you just another pawn in her scheme." Ronomon said drawing his swords. By this time Yamachi, Terriermon, and Guilmon had found a ladder and were making their way onto the rook.

Myotismon noticed this, but quickly returned his attention back to Ronomon. He then said, "I do not know what SatinRenamon's intentions are, but she seems truly focused on me just stopping you until she get here. I do believe she wants to have the joy of defeating two or you personally, but it isn't my place to say. All I truly know of her plan is if I stop you until she gets here, then I get to stay here in the real world, to do as I please."

Ronomon then turned his head slightly and said to Renamon, "Listen, I can keep him occupied. You must go down to the yard and stop SatinRenamon from getting to the real world. You must deactivate the alchemy circle."

Renamon took a step forward and said, "If you tell me how I will go do it, and be back up here to fight by your side."

"First, to stop the alchemy circle you simply need to do something to mess up one of the lines and then step back. After that I don't want you coming up here though. I want you, Guilmon, and Terriermon to go do this, but once you have done it I want you to stay in the yard. I don't want to see any of you get hurt, especially since one hit from this ultimate could be fatal for you, and that also means it would be fatal for your tamer." Renamon knew that arguing with Ronomon at this point was pointless, so she just nodded her head and ran over and told Terriermon and Guilmon the plan. Then the three leapt down from the roof and headed toward the alchemy circle. This left Ronomon, Yamachi, and Myotismon alone on the roof. Ronomon turned to his new tamer and said, "Care to even the playing field for me Yamachi."

Yamachi pulled out his D-Power and the standard digivloution card and said, "It would be my pleasure. Digimodify, digivolution activate." With that Ronomon has taken into a digital field and the digivolution began.

Ronomon digivolve to…Apprenticemon.

The immunity swordsman digimon stood there, with his shield on his left hand and his sword on his right. The two stared each other down then Apprenticemon made the first move by charging Myotismon. Myotismon quickly jumped back and began hovering in the air. He then said in high and mighty tone, "You truly think you can defeat me. Well then, I must teach you your place. CRIMSON LIGHTNING." With that Myotismon threw his wipe like attack at Apprenticemon. Apprenticemon quickly brought up his shield to block the attack and shouted, "ELEMENTAL SHEILD." The shield quickly began to glow and in this energized state was easily able to deflect Myotismon's attack, but when Apprenticemon lowered his shield he notice Myotismon had disappeared. He then felt a sharp pain in his back and feel forward. Myotismon had taken Apprenticemon's moment of defense to slip behind him and hit him with a very powerful grizzly wing attack. Appreticemon quickly stood up and spun around. He then charged at Myotismon again.

While the fight on the roof continued the tamer/digimon had gotten to the alchemy circle. The digimon had all passed control of their own body's back to the tamers. Rika, Henry, and Takato were now looking at the circle, trying to think of a way to mess up one of the many lines of the alchemy circle. Rika then suddenly jumped up and threw a diamond storm attack at the circle. They all had though it had worked, but once the dust had cleared they saw it was completely intact. So Takato and Henry tried their partner's attacks, but they were just as effective. The circle suddenly released a shock wave of energy that threw Rika, Takato, and Henry back against the nearby fence. They were getting up slowly when they heard a yell of pain coming from the roof. While they had been attacking the alchemy circle Myotismon had gotten the upper hand over Apprenticemon. Rika then turned to Henry and Takato and said, "I must go help him. You two keep trying to destroy the alchemy circle." With that she leapt up on to the roof. Once she landed she activated her D-Switch and gave control of her body to Renamon.

When Renamon saw the condition Apprenticemon was in her blood ran cold. His armor was cracked and his shield and sword broken. Yamachi was by his side trying to help him get up, but it was proving useless. Renamon could tell he was on the brink of being deleted. She couldn't stop herself, she ran right up to Apprenticemon. Once she got closer she shouted, "Apprenticemon!" Once she got close she knelt down near the champions head and said, "Apprenticemon, please say something, anything."

"Renamon, please listen to me." Apprentice was able to get out in a weak voice.

"Thank heavens." Renamon said, thankful her brother was still alive.

"Please Renamon listen," Ronomon said taking hold of Renamon's hand, "You are now the only one who can stop Myotismon. When I cast the reverse biomerge spell. I gave you and Rika ability I didn't give the others. I assume Rika is listening right now so listen carefully." Back in the second soul room Rika was following Apprenticemon's instructions. After about half a minute of looking she found what she was looking for. It was a small hidden control panel that had folded into the wall. She saw the control panel had three buttons on it. Above each button was a small image. Above the left one was a picture of Renamon's head. Above the middle one was a picture of Kyuubimon's head, and above the right button was a picture of Taomon's head. Rika quickly figured out what the buttons did and she pressed the middle button. Back in the real world Renamon felt a strange sensation flowing through her body. She quickly became covered in a digital field and when it dissipated some things had changed. One Rika had been put in control of the body, and the D-Switch had disappeared into her skin. Rika also had a different outer appearance to show off her new strength. She had dropped the slight features of Renamon's she had been sporting the past few days. In their place were some of Kyuubimon's features. Rika was now sporting several, very long tails. She also had become completely covered in fur that was similar to Kyuubimon's. She had also grown a ying yang symbol on her forehead, and had Kyuubimon's ears.

Apprenticemon then let out a cough and then said, "Behold, you and you alone posses the power to digivolve while still keeping the human/digimon fusion intact, but be warned. You are still much stronger then you were, but you still must be careful. I don't want you, or my sister to die tonight." With this Apprenticemon succumb to his injuries and dedigivolved back to Ronomon. With that Yamachi, who was astonished by all this, was brought back to his senses and he dragged Ronomon out of harm's way. This left a very interested Myotismon and Rika Nonaka to finish the brawl.

Myotismon chuckled under his breath and said, "If he couldn't defeat me, what makes you think you will be able to."

"I don't think I will be able to, I know I am going to defeat you, if not for myself, then for Ronomon." She responded looking back at the battered and bruised blue fox digimon. She then turned and concentrated. Her tails began to fan out and began to burn with blue fires at their tips. She then focused her attack on Myotismon and said, "FOX TAIL INFERNO." Unfortunately Myotismon easily dodged this attack, but he then found out to late it was only a distraction while Rika began to charge full force at him. She then leapt up into the air and began to do very quick forward summersaults. You could then hear her say, "DRAGON WHEEL." Flames quickly engulfed her body and her attack was launched with deadly accuracy. He was hit full on by the blue flame attack and was knocked down to the roof, but when Rika landed she noticed the attack had done only minimal damage. She then knew she couldn't stop him in her current form. She then remembered the hidden control panel and how it had a third button. She didn't know if Renamon was able to push it, but she closed her eyes and thought, "Renamon, if you can hear me please, open that control panel and press the right most button." A few second passed and Rika suddenly felt a new energy flowing threw her.

A second digital field then appeared and when it cleared Rika was still standing there, but she had gone under a few changes again. She now looked a lot like Taomon. She was in the full attire of the ultimate level digimon. It was just like she had put on the sorceresses clothing. Rika could feel it was much more then that though. She could feel her Taomon's power flowing through her. It was nothing compared to when she and Renamon came together to form Sakuyamon, but she felt it would be more then enough to take out this trouble some vampire digimon.

Myotismon saw the new form of his opponent, but smiled slightly and said, "Oh what now, you going to try and beat me with some simple hocus pocus. Just in case though, CRIMSON LIGHTNING." The lightning whip attack, that had proven effective earlier in the fight, was now easily deflected by the now much more powerful Rika. Myotismon now started to back away from Rika, his face showing the fear now welling up inside. Myotismon started to think, "How is this possible. A few minutes ago I had almost one this battle, now my best attack had been thrown aside like it was nothing. I mustn't let this little half-blood digimon/human stop me from becoming master of this world. I will do what the sovereign couldn't do. I will take over this world."

Rika had noticed the look on Myostimon's face as each one of these thoughts ran threw his head. His face changed from a look of alarm over to an over confident smile. She prepared herself, waiting for Myotismon's next move. She then saw his eyes shift to her right hand side. Rika looked over her right shoulder to see that Yamachi and Ronomon were still on the roof. Rika quickly figured out what Myotismon was planning, but before she could get them out of harms way she heard Myotismon unleashing his grisly wing attack. Rika ran through her options in her head, but realized she had time for only one. She ran up to Yamachi and Ronomon and used her body as a shield to block the attack. The attack lasted for several seconds leaving Rika badly injured.

Myotismon was grinning; the spell caster had been predictable as any goody to shoes. She risked her own life to protect the ones who could not defend themselves. This would allow him to easily destroy the whole lot of them.

In Rika's mind Renamon was screaming, "Why did you do that, if he had put a bit more energy into that attack you would have died. I don't care about myself, but I won't let you sacrifice yourself for me or my brother. We have always fought together, and managed just fine."

Renamon continued to yell at Rika as she stumbled to her feet. Once she had gotten back to her feet she had had enough of Renamon's yelling and thought back to her, "Renamon, just shut up. I don't care if you think this isn't my fight. Sorry to say it Renamon, but this is my fight. If anyone threatens you, Takato, Henry, Yamachi, Ronomon, or anyone else I call my friends will find they have to go threw me to get to them." Rika then leapt up toward the vampire digimon and began fighting with a new burst of energy.

Ronomon had listened in on this mental argument between the Rika and Renamon. HE couldn't believe what Rika was willing to sacrifice to protect him and Yamachi. Yamachi he understood, but the only reason she was defend him was he was related with Renamon. Ronomon then said as he stumbled to his feet, "Well, if she is willing to sacrifice her life for mine, I should be willing to do the same, because not only is a good friend out there, fighting Myotismon, but all that is and ever will be my beloved sister."

Yamachi was amazed Ronomon was even able to move let alone stand up after the beating he had taken. Yamachi wasn't about to allow him to barrel into a fight unprepared. He then remembered that Rika had given him two cards. He pulled out his D-Power and the well sought after blue card and said, "Well then, if you're willing to fight I might as well try to help you as much as I can."

Ronomon turned to see Yamachi waiting for his permission to swipe the blue card through the D-Power. Ronomon nodded and said, "Let's show that Dracula wannabe just what we think of vampires." With that Yamachi swiped the blue card through his D-Power and the digivolution began.

Ronomon Digivolve to…Apprenticemon

Apprenticemon digivolve to…

Once the digivolution data field cleared Yamachi looked up at the now towering, 15ft high digimon that used to be Ronomon.He wielded only one weapon. A thin, strong, black walking stick with a gemstone embedded into the top of it. He was no clothed in a set of sapphire blue robes. His head had stayed the same. It seemed that when Ronomon digivolved he gained simply gained some height, a new set of clothing, and improvements on all of his battle skills. There was one major difference in his body in. In this new form he had more human hands and legs. He had five figures, and they were long and slender not like his usual figures that were almost exact copies of Renamon's. The robe he was wearing was all one color except for a dark red alchemy circle that was emblazoned on the back of the robes. Yamachi then heard something from beneath him. It was Takato and Henry. They had been watching all this since they heard Rika yell from when she had blocked Myotismon's attack.

He yelled down to them, "Hay, Henry."

Henry looked up and yelled, "What is it Yamachi."

"What has Ronomon digivolved in to?"

Henry then focused his eyes on the new ultimate digimon and waited as the data was sent to his mind from the D-Switch. He then yelled back to Yamachi, "His name is Elementalmon. He is an ultimate level digimon. His control over the elements is unparalleled, his special attacks is natures fury, staff of the elements, and elemental oblivion. I'll tell you one thing, I am glad he is on our side."

Yamachi then turned his head back to Elementalmon and smiled as he said, "To quote the famous Digimon Queen, walk all over him."

Elementalmon turned hi head and said, "It will be my pleasure." Elementalmon quickly levitated up to the fight that was going one high above everyone's heads. Rika was holding her own pretty well, but that was all she was doing. She was never able to get an opening wide enough to launch her own attack. She was in a constantly on the defensive, trying to fend of the powerful attacks being launched at her. She then felt another power coming from behind her and she turned her head.

She smiled and said, "So, you decided to jump back into this fight."

Elementalmon took her up in his arms and said, "Just think of me as your substitute. Now please hold still." Rika wondered what this meant. The world around her suddenly grew dark and she had the sensation that she was moving. When the darkness cleared she found she was back down on the roof with Yamachi. She realized that he had teleported her away from the battle. She looked up in anticipation. She just couldn't wait to see how easily Elementalmon would whip Myotismon.

High above Rika Nonaka's house the two ultimate level digimon stared each other down, each waiting for the other to make the first move. Myotismon was the first to break the silence by launching his grisly wing attack straight at Elementalmon. Strangely, Elementalmon just stared the attack down. He then took his walking stick up in both hands and said, "STAFF OF THE ELEMENTS, LIGHT." Elementalmon's walking stick began to glow a bright white. He then began to spin it in front of him very quickly. Myotismon's attack hit his staff, and caused a large explosion. Myotismon watched and waited for the smoke to clear. He thought that he had won, but he noticed that a silhouette was beginning to form in the smoke. Once the smoke had cleared more he saw Elementalmon didn't have a single mark on him. It was as if Myotismon had thrown a bunch of feathers at him. Elementalmon then slowly began to make his way toward the now thoroughly spooked vampire digimon. Myotismon began to back up slightly, but before he got too far he stopped. He had run into a wall of moving air that Elementalmon had projected around the battle to prevent his escape. Elementalmon continued growing closer to Myotismon. Myotismon then decided to try on last attack and threw his most powerful Crimson Lightning attack. The attack was a direct hit due to the fact Elementalmon was but a few feet away, but the attack had proven useless.

When Elementalmon was only 2ft away from Myotismon he stopped his advance and held his walking stick out in front of him. The gem stone on the top quickly began to flash a rainbow of colors. Elementalmon then pointed the end of is toward Myotismon and said, "It is now time to cleanse the world of your evil, ELEMENTAL OBLIVION" With that a huge beam of a spectrum of colors shot out of Elementalmon's staff and struck Myotismon with devastating force, but as with Gem Stone Maelstrom and Ying Yang Beam the effect of the attack was the releasable of the 3 dozen bats that had made up Myotismon's body, Leaving his data to dissipate into the cold night air. Elementalmon then slowly floated to the roof and said, "I don't know about you, but I am glad that's over. He then walked over to Yamachi and Rika, and helped them down from the roof. He then dedigivolved back to Ronomon and the group headed inside to sit down and tend to Rika's wounds, but they hadn't noticed that at the end of the fight the alchemy circle had draw in Myotismon's data, just as it had drawn in the data of Devimon and LadyDevimon.

The alchemy circle then glowed with a dark aura and a shadow flew from the circle, and into the night air. Once the shadow had left the vicinity the alchemy circle was blown away by the wind. The shadow landed on top of a nearby sky scraper, and it looked at its surrounding as its data took form. It then said in a feminine voice, "Those fools didn't know they were merely my stepping stones so I could get to the real world, and now that I am here, I think I will pay a visit to my dearest brother and sister. That is of course one my data has taken form." The shadow then disappeared, going to someplace private to let its data take form.

Assistant: Okay this is for all you inquiring readers about what happened before this chapter. It seems Ronomon wanted to get Renamon back for knock him out. So, he waited till she was in the guest bedroom taking a nap. He then silently set up a strange mechanical device that the second Renamon got up from her nap; she was soaked with two buckets full of very cold water. I have still haven't seen those two since, but something tells me their near by.

(A loud crash can be heard out side)

Assistant: Speak of the devils.
