Coral: Hey, guys! ^-^ It's been a while, but here we go with another action-packed chapter! Just what kind of mess will our heroes end up in next?
[The room is quiet without a trace of SSJ4T. Coral stands with the breeze blowing by her. She starts to grow suspicious.]
Coral: Hmmm, I figured he would be here by now. Where the heck is he? Hey, dude! You can't just leave me to host the show by myself!
[Suddenly, a teenager with shoulder-length black hair and an orange bandana around his neck came walking in. He also was accessorized by a black shirt with a white long-sleeved tee under it. His blue jeans are just about torn with a pair of sneakers. His eyes are as cold as ice and a sinister grin formed on pale face.]
Coral: 17?! Hey, dude. Have you seen SSJ4T?
17: You mean that punk that hosts this show. I just killed him about an hour ago.
Coral: What you killed him?!
17: He told me to put him out of his misery and so I did.
Coral: You're a fucking lair! I know how you play!
17: Speaking of which, I think this shows is in need of some fresh material. So you're looking at you're new host!
Coral: Is that so? Well, it's going to take more than just you're words to order me around…
17: Fetch me some coffee…
Coral: What about the questions from our reviewers? They deserve to get their questions answered.
17: We can wait until this fic is over. You can answer their stupid questions.
Coral: Deal. We've got a show to run, host…
17: Fine, let's get on with this crappy fic.
Coral: You're such a punk… -_-

Lord of the Skies, Horusmon Swoops In! Rei's Visions of the Past!
Shinjuku: March 16, 2003 9:30 A.M.
It's been nearly a whole day since the encounter with Pseudo-Megidramon. Takato and his Tamer comrades have gotten plenty of rest since then. Even Guilmon has had plenty of time to fuel his system with plenty of bread snacks. Now, they were ready to join up with Yugi and his friends over at the bridge in the western sector of town.
Takato and Guilmon walked down the street in hopes of joining up with either Henry or Rika along the way. Guilmon was once again under disguise. The goggle boy finds a blue-haired boy at his age waving over towards him. Takato returns a wave and rushes over towards Henry.
"Hey, Henry! Good thing you didn't sleep in!" Takato calls out.
"Thank Terriermon for that. He wouldn't stop harrassing me."
"You slept through you're alarm clock. There had to be some way to wake you up," Terriermon remarked. "This boy sleeps deeper than a log."
"Logs can't sleep. Can they?" Guilmon said in his usual naive demeanor.
"No, Guilmon. So have you seen Rika yet?" Takato asked.
"No, but she did tell me last night that she has a few things to do before he gets here," Henry replied. "Anyway, did Yugi send you an e-mail last night?"
"No, but he called me to see if everything was fine after that war last night," Takato said. "I'd never thought I'd see another Megidramon again."
"How did Guilmon manage to control his form?" Henry asked. "I'd never thought I'd see Megidramon under control."
Takato turned and faced his digimon partner. Guilmon simply shrugged his shoulders. The goggle boy merely nodded his head toward his friend.
"Who knows? Sometimes even Guilmon amazes me. Nevertheless, I'll be honest with you. I nearly lost faith in Guilmon. I really thought he would lose control again. Thankfully, he didn't. I'm very grateful for it."
"Next time, remember to think happy thoughts, Takato," Guilmon said. "It was hatred that triggered me to digivolve into mean ol' Megidramon. But if you suppress all those negative emotions, then I'll be a good Megidramon."
"Yeah, a good Megidramon. That was some brawl you up yesterday," Takato said. "It was like reliving a battle of titantic proportions. Kind of like Sonic and Shadow…"
"Looks like somebody has been playing plenty of Sonic Adventure," Terriermon teased.
"And you need to cut down on the Sonic gaming," Henry replied. "I can't get him off the Sonic craze."
"I'm already ahead of Henry already and it's only my first try," the rabbit-eared dog digimon said.
"Well, anyway. Yugi also told me to meet him over at arcade. We have a pretty busy day at our hands," Takato replied.
"I agree. Pharaohmon isn't going to let us off the hook that easily," said Henry. "He's been a master of these mind games and so far he's been reeling us in like fish."
"We'll be sure to cut the line before he makes the catch," Guilmon remarked. "Oooh, fish. Now, I'm hungry for some fish sandwiches…"
"Ok, guys. Let's first call Rika and tell her to meet us over at the arcade. We have plenty of work to do. So let's not waste any time," Takato said.
Everyone nodded in agreement, as they started to walk down the street leading up towards the local arcade facility. Unaware of the fact that they were being watched, a winged figure remained perched on the edge of an office building. It's eyes glared down on Guilmon and Terriermon with curiosity.
*********************************************************************
Shibuya: 9:45 AM
Deep within the other side of town, a group of people was gathered at a site of what looked to be a murder scene. An ambulance managed to arrive and carry out a quantity of lifeless bodies. Everyone's eyes were transfixed onto the cold, lifeless bodies. Amongst the crowd was leader of the Legendary Warriors, Takuya Kanbara. He couldn't believe at what he was seeing.
"This is terrible. Who in the world could have done something like this? This just seems too hard to believe that it was a murder scene. I don't even see any scars, cuts or anything of the sort. However, their bodies are so lifeless. If there's anyone sick enough to pull this kind of crap off, it has to be Pharaohmon. There's no mistaking it."
"Takuya!!"
The pre-teen turns around to find Tomoki rushing towards him. The younger boy gives Takuya a high-five and looks over to the scene. His eyes quickly turned away from the sight of lifeless bodies being carted into the ambulance trucks.
"Takuya… Those are bodies… What happened over here?"
"Um, it looks like some kind of murder scene. But you're not going to believe me when I say this."
"What? Just say it, already."
"They didn't have any marks or anything. Yeah. Why would it be called a murder scene if there weren't evidence of any marks left on their bodies? No stab wounds, gun wounds or anything. It's as if something drained their… souls away…"
"Their souls?"
"Yeah and something tells me that Pharaohmon is definitely behind this."
"I don't find that surprising, Takuya. We ought to tell the others."
"No need for that," an older boy's voice calls out.
Takuya looks through the crowd to find Junpei walking towards him and Tomoki. Junpei looked like as if he had just seen a ghost with his face all pale.
"I always go pale when I see dead bodies. Don't ask why, but I've always had nightmares about zombies," Junpei said.
"Nah, it's nothing to be ashamed about," Tomoki said. "I get those kind of nightmares all the time."
"Well now that we've just seen what looked to be Pharaohmon's handiwork, I say we tell the others about our discovery. I'm pretty sure they'll know eventually through the television news."
"Hey, don't forget about the Sailor Senshi," Junpei said. "They're bound to be investigating like we should."
"I can't forget about them," replied Takuya. "Ok, let's make sure to let Izumi, Kouji and Kouichi know about everything we just seen."
The boys nodded their head in agreement as Takuya takes a look at his watch to get track of time. It was 9:50 and they had all day to begin their investigation.
"All right, guys. We have all day to find any clues behind these so-called 'murders'," the leader said. "Remember to spirit evolve when it's necessary. We'll be sure to stay in contact with each other. Got it?"
"Right. I'll check around the park," Junpei said.
"I'll make sure to check around the market area," replied Tomoki. "Besides, that's where Izumi lives and I'll drag her out to help me out."
"Cool. I'll catch up with you two later then. Be careful and watch you're backs…"
"Yeah before I get my head chopped off by those creeps," Junpei stated. "Plus, I don't want to lose my head."
"Nobody is going to lose their head when we're around," Tomoki said as he rushed off to the food market area.
Junpei was left in the middle while his two comrades rushed off to their investigation locations. The middle schooler simply hung his head low and walks off towards the direction leading up to the local park.
"Yeah, leave me behind like that... Man, I just hope I don't run into any of Pharaohmon's creeps… I've had enough bad luck as it already is."
However, Junpei was going to soon be very disappointed when he finds out that a trio of Scrabmon having been spying on him. The clever insects made their move and followed Junpei down towards the park in hopes of ambushing him. So much for Junpei's luck, because it was about to run out.
*********************************************************************
Shibuya Market Square: 10:05 A.M.
Tomoki pushed his way through the busy Sunday crowd as they went about their day and shopped to their heart's content. He was hoping to find Izumi amongst the crowd, but he was very much unsuccessful in his search.
"Geez, these crowds can be a pain, especially on Sundays," Tomoki muttered. "Izumi! Izumi!"
The boy tried calling out the girl's name in order to get a reaction to his calls. Despite his efforts, he couldn't hear a reply or anything of the sort. Tomoki walks through the crowd and accidentally bumps into a red-haired stranger. Tomoki looked up and faced none other than the fox demon himself, Kurama.
"Excuse me, mister. That was my fault."
"It's quite all right. Run along now," Kurama replied in a friendly manner.
Tomoki heads off through the crowd to resume his search for the legendary heroine of wind. Kurama looks off to the boy and simply smiles.
"What a kind boy."
"I see we're making new friends, Kurama," a low voice calls out from behind the fox demon.
Kurama turns to find a short, blue spike-haired individual with a dark cloak. The fox demon cleared his throat and walks towards the broody individual.
"You could say that, Hiei. Have you found anything what we're looking for?"
"If it's anything to do with Pharaohmon, then no. His minions are a lot clever than I first realized. Finding them with just our eyes is rather pointless."
"Yes, I can't even sense their spirit energy. How peculiar."
"I'll be off then," Hiei said. "I'm going to cover higher ground."
"To be fair, the only way we have a chance of finding these things are if they are involved in a battle with those other warriors," Kurama replied.
"Yes, I would know that by now. You cover this area then."
"I will. Good luck on you're search."
With that said, Hiei instantly phases out like a blur and leaves Kurama behind to go about his search. Looking on from the background was another pair of Scrabmon under disguises. Their overcoats helped them blend in with the crowd and prevented them from looking suspicious to Kurama's keen sense of sight.
*********************************************************************
Shinjuku Arcade: 10:15 A.M.
The Tamers had just arrived at the arcade and joined up with Yugi's group. Rika was a little late, but was fortunate to find them located into one area. Yugi led everyone out from the arcade, despite Joey's pleads for wanting to play a few games. Right now, their objective was to plan an investigation and infiltrate anything associated with Pharaohmon.
"Now I know why I called you guys out here, right?" Yugi asked everyone within the group.
"So we can play some games over at the arcade," Joey remarked foolishly.
"Will you get serious, Joey?!" Tea cried out.
"Yeah, this isn't the time to be thinking about silly games," Henry said.
"I agree with blondie. Bring on the games!" Terriermon remarked.
"Terriermon…"
"Geez, I never get to have any fun."
Yugi merely chuckled, but cleared his throat to start another leadership speech. Tea was finished punching Joey in the head and nearly left him bruised.
"You guys know why I called you over here. We know that our newest enemy has been plotting against us and has even sent minions to finish us. However, we've managed to overcome them. Let me tell you, we were simply lucky to survive each of those encounters. The spirit of my Millennium Puzzle has been warning me each night of when Pharaohmon would strike next. It seems he's been onto Pharaohmon's case as of late and there seems to be quite a pattern going on. He randomly attacks Shinjuku and Shibuya, yet he did manage to send a minion in Domino City in order to take my puzzle and it was just yesterday that Pharaohmon nearly had us where he wanted us. If it weren't for Takato and Guilmon, we along with those other heroes would have been lunch meat."
"Yeah, I wanted to bring that up," Takato replied. "Those other digimon have been saving our butts these past recent encounters."
"Not to mention those two guys with the energy beams," Tristan said. "You know who I'm talking about."
"We know exactly who you're talking about," Rika replied. "We still don't know who they're associated with, but we know for sure that they're on our side."
"We also can't forget about those Sailor chicks," Joey said. "At least we know that they're with us. They just randomly appear wherever there's trouble."
"Ok and we're all clear on that. They share a common enemy just as we do. Pharaohmon also seems to be after more than just my Millennium Puzzle. It seems he might be looking to take something from each one of us. It can even be our own souls," Yugi stated promptly. "We have to be sure to aid all those who oppose Pharaohmon. Is that clear?"
"Yeah, we got ya, Yug," Joey replied. "You can count on us."
"I know I can make some pretty crummy speeches," Yugi said. "But…"
"But nothing," Takato said. "You were clear to the point. We know what we must do. Right, everyone? We have a town to investigate. So, are you in or not?"
"You know my answer by now, goggle head," Rika replied.
"And don't forget us," said Tea. "We're behind you all the way."
"I'm so glad you guys understand," Yugi said. "Ok. If anything, we should get started right away. That way we can at least find some clues as to where Pharaohmon's goons might be hiding. Ok there's seven of us plus three digimon. Say, where is Renamon, Rika?"
"Oh, she comes when she really has to. Don't worry. She knows about our assignment."
"Fair enough. Ok, I say Takato, Guilmon and Joey can join me. The rest of you form a group and investigate around the southern outskirts of town. We'll start our search around the western side of town."
"Don't worry we have Guilmon here," Takato said. "He'll be sure to sniff out for some clues. Right, boy?"
"You got it."
"Now that we have that out of the way we can begin our search. Let's make this count," Yugi said. "We have to at least find something. If anything we must foil Pharaohmon's plans with any means necessary. Good luck guys and watch you're back."
With that said, Yugi led his group out to the Shinjuku Bridge section of town. Meanwhile, everyone else managed to look around the outskirts for anything suspicious.
Yugi, Takato and Joey looked up to find anything remotely related to Scrabmon activity. They found nothing but were sure to know how to react if they found one. Even Guilmon was not having any luck of the sort.
Looking on from afar was that same winged creature, who was already perched on another edge of an office building. The creature grins, as it remained perfectly camouflaged against the building.
"Lord Pharaohmon will be pleased to hear about this…"
*********************************************************************
Outskirts of Shinjuku: 10:25 A.M.
There was a beautiful view of the city of Shinjuku along the outskirts. Standing near a row of cars was Lance as he sensed out everyone that was searching for him. He was pleased to know that they've all gathered in hopes of having in luck finding him. To their dismay, Pharaohmon was nowhere to be found within the city now. But there were plenty of Scrabmon to welcome them.
"Excellent. They're all gathered throughout the city. I'll have my squadron of Scrabmon hunt them down one by one. The situation is very much the same in Shibuya. They shall find those insolent fools and hunt them. Ah, I see Horusmon has set his sights on those Tamer brats not to mention Yugi."
"Lord Pharaohmon," Felinismon calls out.
"What is it?"
The feminine feline digimon walks out from behind a row of bushes and kneels in front of the possessed teenage boy. Lance turns around and gives her a lifeless glare.
"I'm happy to report that I've collected more souls along the way. They shall help sustain you're power, my lord."
"Ah, yes. You've done excellent work. Those humans won't suspect a thing. They'll chalk it up as another epidemic case."
"Sire. What about Megidramon? Will we use him this time around? He proved to be quite troublesome for those pests."
"He's going to need to recover. That transformation from Guilmon was quite unexpected. My Megidramon will be resting for the time being. The same goes for Babimon. I will need their help down the road, but for now we must rely on Horusmon."
"So, you've hired him to do you're bidding?"
"Yes, until I can gain my full strength."
"You sure do know how to make negotiations with others, my lord."
"I freed him from his prison in the Digital World. As a way for thanking me, he's going to help me crush these insects one by one. They won't even suspect a thing when we gets his clutches on them."
"Will he need some assistance? I'm more than willing to lend him some assistance."
"No. Let us wait and see if Horusmon is capable of handling the task. If he can, then there's no need for any outside interference on our parts. Have some patience, you shall have another chance."
"As you wish, I shall wait until then…"
Lance instantly forms an orb in his hand and gets a view of Rei Hino. A sinister grin forms on his face as he waves his hands over the orb.
"Now, I can focus my attention on you, Sailor warrior. Why is it that you remind me of that digital priestess woman who nearly destroyed me? If you do happen to be coincidence with her, then I will not hesitate to kill you myself. I can't allow any being with such power to foil my plans before they are complete."
"You really think she has a connection with that enemy you once dreaded?"
"I don't think. I know. She has to be. She was able to put a stop to Megidramon with her anti-evil power. She has ESP like that priestess woman. Fortunately, even that priestess couldn't sense my whereabouts."
"Are you planning on killing her right now?"
"No, that would be too quick. I want to make it as painfully slow as I can. I need to find out a little more behind her past and I will."
With that said, Lance's eyes emitted a dark purple aura and started to engulf the whole orb. He waves his hands over it and starts chanting in tongue.
"I just hope you know what you're doing, my lord. We really can't be sure if this girl has a connection to the same priestess that nearly destroyed you."
Lance kept his focus on the image of Rei Hino on his orb and continued to chant under tongue.
*********************************************************************
Shibuya Train Station: 10:40 A.M.
Through the crowd boarding the monorail train, a certain raven-haired girl was about to board inside. Suddenly, she felt a slight evil vibe using her ESP ability. She looks around in search of anything peculiar. To her shock, there wasn't anyone that contained an evil presence. She had second thoughts and departed from her train stop.
"What was that dark chi I just sensed? It couldn't have been from these people. In fact, Pharaohmon's minions aren't even supposed to be giving off an energy signal since they've managed to block out my ESP."
Suddenly, everything around Rei seemed to have been frozen in time. No person made a single movement. Everything was completely mute. Rei stood silent and rushed over towards the back entrance. She looks out and finds everything to be completely still.
"What the hell is going on here? Time just stopped all of a sudden. This couldn't be done by Sailor Pluto, since she would let us know beforehand."
"Mheh. Unfortunately for you, I've trapped you into another dimension. Better yet, it's a little something Yugi's spirit refers to as the Shadow Realm. I prefer the name the Death Realm. Because that's where you are now, my dear…"
Rei walked through the time-frozen crowd and waved her hand in front of each of them. There was no response from the people.
"Now to revive some old memories from you're past…"
Suddenly, a bright flash of light engulfs Rei and it quickly sends her into what looked like a realm filled with complete darkness. There wasn't a single trace of light to be found.
"Is this some sort of illusion?! Minako! Makoto! This is utter bullshit. When I wake up, this will only be a dream."
"Ha! She doesn't realize the depth of my dark sorcery. I've been trained to handle the extreme nature of my Death Realm. If I'm successful, then I'll cast this wench into the shadows forever. If she happens to be related to my old enemy, then it's best to be rid of her right now. Now, time to tap into those past memories…"
With that said, a flash of memories started to play through Rei's mind. Her determined will was able to erase each thought one by one. However, there was one shot that hasn't left Rei's memories. An image of herself as a little girl remained in her memories.
"What is this all of a sudden?"
"Oh, I see… Sweet old child memories… This will be rather interesting… Let's see what skeletons you have hiding in you're closet."
Rei watched the image play in her memory as if it were some sort of motion picture. She witnessed her child self being welted by a grown man. The raven-haired girl was completely taken back by this and quickly remembered those painful memories.
"Da… Father? What is this all of a sudden?"
"I see we have some painful memories, don't we? Why don't we turn this up a notch? It'll be very delicious watching you squirm…"
Rei was completely zoned out as she watched those painful memories from her childhood. Pharaohmon was very anxious to see if the strong-willed Senshi of Fire would be brought down to her knees through some painful memories of the past. So far, it didn't seem to be successful as Rei turned away from the images.
"I understand that you're trying you're hardest to erase these painful memories, but that will not save you when you're in my domain! You play with fire and you're going to get burned."
*********************************************************************
Shibuya Park: 10:45 AM
The Scrabmon swarm that hid within the park's forest had now made an assault on Junpei. Already spirit evolved, Blitzmon was trying his hardest to fend off the agile insect warriors.
"You guys sure do know how to annoy me!" Blitzmon exclaimed. "You think you can get away with sneaking up on me?! Thunder Fist!!"
Blitzmon charges towards the Scrabmon clan with fists streaked with electricity. Just as he was about to nail then at once, they swerved to the side and fired away an array of blades that pierced through all over Blitzmon's armored body.
"Damn! These guys are a lot sneakier than I thought! There's no way I can beat them by myself. I'll need the others to help me out here..."
*********************************************************************
Shinjuku - West Shinjuku Bridge: 11: 02 A.M.
Takato and Guilmon were still investigating the bridge for anything pecuilar. Yugi's small group was unsuccessful for the past half hour. They couldn't even find a shred of evidence of Scrabmon activity.
"We're not having any luck, Yug," Joey said. "How are we supposed to find these things?"
"Remember they hide under disguise. Pharaohmon was smart to have given them the ability to cloak their presence. It makes it harder for us to find them."
"And it's already giving me a headache! This makes looking for a needle in the haystack look like a kiddy game."
Takato walked down a nearby street leading up towards Hypnos HQ. He finds Guilmon sniffing around the building area. The boy remembered that the same people within this ominous building once attempted to wipe out every trace of digimon using the Juggernaut program. Those painful memories of losing Guilmon crept back into Takato's mind. He quickly shook off those thoughts and rushes over to Guilmon.
"Anything yet, boy?"
"Sorry, Takato. I can't even put my nose on their scent. Can we can rest now?"
"No, we've got to continue this investigation. I know it seems difficult, but we can do this."
However, they were unaware that Horusmon was watching them from above the top of the twin buildings of Hypnos HQ. Takato and Guilmon were completely unaware of what was going to happen next.
"Now it's time I make my move. Here I come!" Horusmon exclaimed.
The winged hawk digimon came diving down from the top of the buildings and towards where Takato was standing. At the very last split second, Guilmon reacts to this sudden rush and leaps over at Takato. He pushes Takato away as Horusmon grounds Guilmon down to the ground with massive force. People started fleeing from the scene as Horusmon turns to face them. The winged monster has a golden armored chest plate with a pair of glider-like wings spread across his back. Its face was shielded by a golden plate of armor with a hawk-like beak sticking out through the armor. Its eyes were locked onto Guilmon like a predator. On it's forehead was an ancient Egyptian eye hieroglyph. This mark symbolizes the eye of Horus according to Egyptian legend.
"Guilmon!!"
"Takato…"
"Who are you?!" Takato demanded. "Are you associated with that coward?!"
"Please, refrain yourself from calling my master by such tongue. You will show Lord Pharaohmon respect. For soon you will be bowing down before him."
"I'd rather be thrown into hell's peak than ever pledge loyalty to a spineless coward!"
"I am Horusmon and I've been sent to execute you. I hear that you've been giving Pharaohmon a rather hard time. Don't worry, all of that will change in due time."
"Horusmon, huh? You think I care what you're name is? Guilmon! Get up, boy!"
"I'm afraid you're partner can't comply. Oh, I see. I'm just inches away from crushing his larynx and I'll be rid of this poor excuse of a digital pet forever."
"You lay you're claws off of him!"
Takato rushed over towards Horusmon, but soon stopped as the hawk digimon pressed his clawed feet near Guilmon's throat. The crimson dino struggled under the hawk's tight grip. Suddenly, Horusmon's eye started to emit a golden flare.
"You come any closer and I'll tear his throat open. My eye sees the future and I predict that you will use a card through you're device known as a D-Ark to help boost Guilmon's strength. Am I right? I'm right with my predicition, right? Well?"
Takato looks down and had a tight grip on his card pack. He growls and stuffs them back into his pocket.
"You're quite a predictable individual. I knew you were going to use a card to free you're partner."
"How did he know? That eye on his forehead must let him see the events that occur in the future? But that's too unbelievable. Then again, Yugi can summon real monsters with his Millennium Puzzle."
"So, what's it going to be? Surrender and pledge you're loyalty to Pharaohmon or kiss you're skinny ass goodbye. Well?"
Takato was left with a loss for words. He had to make a choice. It was either to surrender himself to the gutless coward or watch his own digimon partner become mincemeat.
"Time is running out, boy."
"I…"
"Yes?"
"will…"
"Say it!"
Just as Takato was about to finish his sentence, he turns to the side and finds Yami Yugi along with Joey rushing to the scene. Takato turns his full attention to Horusmon and leaps out to push Guilmon away. Yugi used his the power of his Millennium Puzzle and uses it's force to knock Horusmon away. Joey rushes over to help Takato carry Guilmon away.
"Whew! That was a close one, Yug!" Joey calls out.
"Yes. Are you okay, Guilmon? Takato?"
"I'm fine, but it looks like Guilmon took some punishment," said Takato.
"Coward! Show yourself!"
Horusmon appears on top of a light post and sets his sights on Yami Yugi with curiosity. The digimon forms a sinister grin under his helmet and taunts the pharaoh.
"So I take it you're the Yugi runt. You have an item Pharaohmon desires. If order for me to retrieve, I must kill you."
"You can try, but I guarantee you won't succeed."
"Is that so? Well, I'm afraid my colleagues don't agree with you."
Horusmon points out towards the surroundings as a swarm of Scrabmon came out of hiding. Now Yami Yugi, Guilmon, Takato and Joey found themselves surrounded by an army of insect warriors. Horusmon snickered at the sight of his enemies about to become greatly overwhelmed by the Scrabmon clan.
"Damn, I'd thought we'd never run into this freaks again," Joey remarked.
"C'mon, Guilmon. You have to get up. I need you're full cooperation. We can't win if you aren't in the game."
"Don't worry, Takato. We'll be sure to get out of this predicament," replied Yami Yugi. "I've got a plan."
"Yes, you're planning on summoning some monsters and plenty of traps to destroy the Scrabmon, aren't you? Very clever. It's no wonder why Pharaohmon has sought interest in this game known as Duel Monsters. Maybe by watching this, I can inform Lord Pharaohmon everything there is to know about the basic and advanced strategies of the game. Play those cards for me, boy. You're simply jsut a guinea pig to me now."
*********************************************************************
Shibuya Park: 11:10 A.M.
Blitzmon was in trouble as the Scrabmon kept their attacks on him. The warrior of Thunder struggled to get back on track, especially since his body was about to give out on him.
"No… I can't give up… Damn, where are you guys?!"
"He's down for the count, commander," a Scrabmon said. "Let's finish him off already!"
"Yes, in the name of Pharaohmon, you shall die!!" the Scrabmon commander calls out.
The swarm swooped down upon the fallen Blitzmon to deliver the finishing blow. Suddenly, a streak of flames and a wave of ice came blasting the swarm out of nowhere. The insect clan quickly recovered from the 'lucky' shots and found the two culprits. It was Agunimon and Chakkoumon. They went over to help Blitzmon up back on his feet.
"Are you okay, Blitzmon?" Agunimon asked.
"Yes. Those buggers were really starting to annoy me. Thanks, I thought I was going to be a goner."
"Don't worry. You can count on us. We weren't able to find Izumi and the others, but we sure as heck can have some fun with these bullies," Chakkoumon said.
"Ready to fight? Because we are!" Agunimon calls out.
"Hey, it's you're call, but don't cry when we're done with you!" the Scrabmon commander retorts bluntly. "Attack, men!"
The insect clan charged forward against the legendary warrior trio. Agunimon leaps up and delivers a dropkick that managed to take down some. Blitzmon charged in and plowed his way through the remaining swarm. Chakkoumon skidded passed several Scrabmon and leveled each of them with ice blasts from his Blizzard Blaster cannon. Agunimon quickly performs an array of cartwheel spinning kicks that knocked back a surrounding horde one by one.
"These guys really get easier and easier to beat every single time," Agunimon said. "They weren't as bad as we first fought them."
"No kidding. Pharaohmon must be losing interest in these guys," Chakkoumon replied. "How sad…"
"Um, you might want to have second thoughts," Blitzmon said. "We have more than we're bargaining for."
The trio turned as they saw another swarm of Scrabmon charging towards them. Agunimon simply hung his head low and sighed in disbelief.
"Ugh, great… So much for our big mouths, Chakkoumon."
"Don't worry! We can still take 'em!"
"Bring it on, boys!" Blitzmon blurts out. "I need a good stress reliever anyway."
However, as soon as the swarm charged halfway through the battlefield, a blur flash slices through the insects in one full swoop. The legendary warriors turned to find Hiei sheathing his sword. One by one, the Scrabmon were clean in half and were deleted in an instant.
"Nice one, Hiei!" Kurama calls out.
"They were merely amateurs."
"Hey! Who are those guys?" Chakkoumon asked. "Wait! I saw that guy with the red-hair!"
"Plus I've seen that short guy who just cut those bugs clean half," Blitzmon replied.
"Hey, you should saved me a piece of the action," a teenage boy calls out.
"You're too late, Yusuke," Hiei stated. "I took care of the bug problem."
"Well, at least, we don't have to call an exterminator," replied Yusuke. "Damn. You really made a mess of things."
"Hey! I've seen that guy!" Agunimon calls out while pointing over to Yusuke. "Yeah. He and this other guy used some form of spirit energy to help us try to stop Megidramon the other day."
"So these dudes have interfering with our fights," Blitzmon said. "They must be really strong if they can pull those kind of maneuvers. Right, Chakkoumon?"
"Uh huh."
Yusuke turns around to find the three digimon. Hiei and Kurama follow in suit as they glared over at Agunimon, Chakkoumon and Blitzmon.
"Hey, it's you!" Yusuke yells out to Agunimon. "You! The guy with the fire techniques!"
"Um, yeah! What about me?"
"What a coincidence. This is the second time in the past two days we've meet. It's good to know you're kicking these freaks asses."
"Um, it's all in a days work…"
"Strange. I wonder why these Scrabmon have been simple enough to defeat. The first time we've fought them, they save us trouble. Maybe we are getting stronger," Blitzmon thought. "Either that or Pharaohmon has gotten lazy by providing these buggers more energy."

Shinjuku - Hypnos HQ: 11:25 A.M.
Horusmon instantly felt the depleting power coming from Shibuya and realized that the Scrabmon hordes were easily defeated. He turns his attention back On Yugi and merely chuckles. Standing in front of Yugi were a couple of monsters he had summoned using his Millennium Puzzle's mystical force. In front of him were Buster Blader, Joey's Alligator Swordsman, and Celtic Guardian. Yugi had also sprung a trap and used Nightmare Steel Cage on the entire Scrabmon swarm.
"It seems we've had quite a few problems over in Shibuya."
"So you've realized that not even you're insect army is enough to defeat us? You'll need more than just armies in hopes of winning," Yami replied.
"Is that so? Well, I don't need Scrabmon to defeat the likes of you. I've gained enough information from you."
"What do you mean?"
"You've used revealed one of you're many incredible dueling strategies. You've just given some tips for Lord Pharaohmon."
"But why would he even care for a game like Duel Monsters?"
"You'll know eventually, in due time. Now I must make my departure. I'll be taking the Scrabmon with me. Until then…"
With that said, Horusmon and the Scrabmon clan vanished from the scene and left the heroes pondering about what the digimon had just announced. Yami couldn't believe at the startling revelation.
"Hey, Yugi! Just what does he want with strategies and these cards?" Takato asked.
"Pharaohmon. Are you thinking what I think you're plotting?" Yami Yugi muttered.
"Um, Yug! Care to explain?" said Joey. "Don't tell me this creep is planning on dueling us."
"He just might. If he is now so interested in duel monsters, then he will be even more formidable to defeat."
"But you have you're God Cards!"
"Yes, but he might just simply find a strategy that could crush even my God monsters."
"Well, at least we're still in one piece," replied Takato. "Hey, Guilmon. Are you going to be okay, buddy?"
"Takato…" the red dino muttered under his breath. "Did I… get him?"
"No, he got away," Takato replied. "Don't you worry. We'll be ready for him."
"If Pharaohmon is planning on dueling us, then I have to be prepared for the worst. I have to keep my God cards intact. There's no telling if he is setting his sights on them," Yugi said in Yami's thoughts. "But why is he so interested in dueling after everything he's put us through? Maybe this way he can win my Millennium Puzzle. Well, we're not about to let him off the hook that easily. We saved the world once and we'll do it again."
*********************************************************************
Shibuya Park - 11:28 A.M.
As soon as the legendary warriors and the spirit detectives were about to move out, Horusmon appears with a horde of his Scrabmon. The heroes stood their ground against the combined evil forces. Horusmon steps up in front of the horde and a sword materializes in his right hand.
"So you're the ones who slain the Scrabmon clan. Congratulations, you are worthy adversaries of Lord Pharaohmon."
"Great, does he want our autograph?" Yusuke remarked.
"For that, he wants you to die honorable deaths."
"Is that so? If he wants us dead, why doesn't he come and kill us himself? We're not going to let some bird boy give us a crappy death threat," Agunimon replied.
"Why don't you come and get us yourself?!" Blitzmon exclaimed. "'Cause I'm really getting sick of this."
"By all means try. You with the smart mouth," the digimon points out to Yusuke. "Give me you're best shot."
"Heh. You know I could use some roast chicken," Yusuke remarked. "My best shot will kill ya."
Yusuke points his finger out and targets Horusmon at a long distance range. Horusmon felt an uprising surge of spirit energy coursing through the tip of Yusuke's finger. As soon as Yusuke fires his Spirit Gun, Horusmon stood his ground and watched as the blast was coming forth. The Scrabmon were now starting to doubt his chances of surviving such a devastating blast.
"Ha. This ought to be quick," Agunimon remarked.
"No, I don't think so," Hiei replied.
"What?!" Yusuke exclaimed as he watched his blast sliced in half. "What the hell was that?!"
The smoke cloud started to clear away and it revealed Horusmon completely unscathed. His sword had been sheathed with the tip of its blade flaring up smoke from the blast. Yusuke could only look on with utter shock.
"Aw, crap! He cut my spirit blast in half with that sword!"
"Unfortunately for you, my sword cuts through anything. That includes spirit energy. This sword was forged from ancient sorcerers from the Digital World. I have been blessed and thus has saved me from the spirit wave you've created. I find it quite surprising that a mere human creates a powerful force through the tip of his fingers."
"Yeah, well I'm full of surprises!"
"Yes, and you're also full of something elese too…"
With that said, Horusmon instantly vanishes and reappears behind the entire group. Agunimon goes to attack, but is quickly struck down by Horusmon's sword. Chakkoumon and Blitzmon attempts to save their fallen comrade, but were brought down by dark spirit waves from the slashes of his sword.
"Anyone else want a taste of my blade?"
"It's a sword battle you want?" Hiei said as he unveils his cloak and unsheathes his sword. "I'm ready to oblige."
"I'll take care of our insect friends," Kurama said.
"Make sure to leave me some leftovers," Yusuke calls out. "And you still owe me a rematch, pal."
"That's if you can survive my Scrabmon horde," Horusmon replied. "Now, shall we get started?"
"I was going to ask you the same question," Hiei retorted. "Of course, make you're move…"
The two instantly engaged in a sword battle fury while Yusuke and Kurama were taking care of business with the Scrabmon. The fox demon used his deadly Rose Whip to hack away at some of the insects. Yusuke was quick to react to each attack inflicted by the Scrabmon. He uses his spirit energy to incinerate several more of the digimon insects.
The legendary warriors managed to recover from Horusmon's cheap shots and watched the fights unfold. They were unable to keep track of the sword battle between Horusmon and Hiei.
"Whoa! Just who's fighting up there! I can't even see them! I really need some glasses," Blitzmon said.
"I can see them but barely," Agunimon said. "They're moving so fast that not even I can keep up with every single one of their movements. So far, they're evenly fought and they are only using their swords!"
"Only their swords?" Chakkoumon asked.
"Yeah and neither one seems to be giving out. Though that guy with the funky hair should watch what he's doing. One slip and he'll be a goner."
Hiei and Horusmon continued their sword duel as neither one seemed to be willing to give out. Horusmon powers up a portion of his energy through his sword and attempts to take Hiei out with it. However, the fire apparition was able to dodge at the very last second. This allowed Horusmon enough time to appear behind Hiei.
"Yes, you were going to strike me when I had my guard down. It would have worked if I didn't predict the outcome beforehand. My eye of Horus sees everything that takes place in the future!"
Horusmon delivers a sword slash to Hiei's back and sends him plummeting down. The swordsmen demon lands with a deep wound embedded on his back.
"Did I surprise you already? You shouldn't be. I can predict what move you were going to make at the last second. Face it, you can't comprehend with my speed."
"Ha, you say as if you already have won this encounter," Hiei stated promptly.
"I did. I just inflicted a deep wound on you."
"Yes and believe me this wound won't keep me down. I'll give you credit for matching with my speed, but that's all I'm giving you credit for. You don't have the energy to destroy me."
"Oh, I don't?"
Horusmon levitates down and puts up a sword battle pose. He quickly charges forward and goes for another slash attack on Hiei. Then at the last second, a wave of flames combined with an electrical attack came shooting toward Horusmon. The airborne digimon maneuvered away and the energy blast was sent towards the heavens.
"Man! We almost had him!" Agunimon calls out.
"Ugh, this is getting tiresome. You fellows have disappointed me. I was looking for a challenge and all I've gotten have been deadbeats," Horusmon stated promptly.
"Oh! So we're not worthy?!" Yusuke calls out. "We just kicked some bug ass over here. You're all alone."
"Maybe but I'll still beat you all single handedly. It would be a crime for me to end this early when we can have plenty of more fun."
"So are you running away? Figures, you bad guys always seem to come up with such lame excuses," Agunimon said. "Typical villain cliché if you ask me."
"Maybe so, but I'm giving you a second chance to redeem yourselves."
"What's the catch on this?" Hiei asked.
"You know those twin towers in Shinjuku? I'll be waiting there tonight at 9:00. I'll be on the roof. All you guys have to do have the guts to show up. You have plenty of time to recover until then. Use you're time wisely and meet me if you think you stand a chance. I won't be bringing any Scrabmon this time. Is that clear? Good, I hope I'll see each one of you. Well, I'll be heading off. Lord Pharaohmon awaits my presence…"
"I don't think so!!" Agunimon calls out. "I'm afraid this fight is far from being over…"
"What do you mean? I just wasted each of you already. Are you that anxious of facing me again? Well, I'm more than happy to oblige."
"You're in for a surprise," the fire warrior stated as he de-transforms back into Takuya. "Here's a little something I've been saving up until now! Execute!"
"He's going for it, Chakkoumon!" Blitzmon said.
"What is doing?" Kurama pondered. "Does he really think he can put up another effort against this fiend?"
"I don't care as long as somebody knocks that bird's screws loose!" Yusuke calls out.
[Fusion Evolution dub instrumental theme]
Takuya held his D-Scanner and scanned it across his hand. A twist of fractal data started to twirl all around Takuya's body as he prepared for his evolution.
"Execute!! Fusion Evolution!!"
The boy's clothes were ripped away as the spirits of his beast and human forms encircled him. Standing in the boy's place was a red armored warrior with a wave of shaggy, orange fiery hair. His face looked exactly like Agunimon. On his back was a pair of eagle-like wings, which were thanks in part of Vritramon. His elbow blades glistened with a wave of fire torching at the sides of his body. The warrior lets out a war cry and calls out his name.
"Ardhamon!!"
[End theme]
Ardhamon charges towards Horusmon and goes for a head-on attack. However, Horusmon was able to dodge out of the way and slashes at the fusion digimon. Ardhamon dodges each slash accordingly and forms a massive sphere in front of him.
"Eat this! Solar Wind Destroyer!!"
"What?! No! I can block this out!"
Ardhamon sends the blast with full force towards Horusmon. The eagle digimon flies out as the sphere followed him. He turns and gives it a few slashes from his sword. Unfortunately, each slash were incapable of incinerating the sphere. Horusmon phases away and allows the sphere to shoot straight up into the heavens straight above.
"Damn! That was close! You nearly had me there! I commend you, legendary warrior. However, my offer still stands. I'll be waiting over at the twin buildings in Shinjuku. I hope to see you there."
With that said, Horusmon vanishes from sight and leaves everyone on the battlefield behind. Hiei sheathes his sword and holds his wounded back.
"You going to be ok, Hiei?" Kurama asked.
"That cut looks pretty bad," Yusuke said. "Damn, we would have had him."
"I'll be fine. I've had worse," Hiei replied. "Until we meet again, Horusmon."
"I don't know about you guys but I'm totally free tonight," Ardhamon said. "That guy isn't getting away with this. What do you say?"
"You can count me in," said Blitzmon.
"Ditto for me!" exclaimed Chakkoumon.
"That punk owes me a rematch," Yusuke said. "You know I'm in."
"These fools don't realize the risk they're taking. This is simply another trap," Hiei thought. "Then again, I'm willing to get another shot at that bird. Nothing has held me back before. Maybe I can show him a little demonstration I've been saving up for a long time…"
Unknown to everyone around him, Hiei's hands started becoming encased with a flare of dark flames. A grin forms on the demon's face at the sight of the flames.
"This one's especially for you, Horusmon…"
"Are you coming with us, Hiei?" Kurama asked. "I know you're dying for some vengeance."
"Yes... I have a little something in store for him. Just you wait and see," Hiei said with a sinister smirk.
"Something tells me we're going to have a rough night," Ardhamon said.
"Just the way I like it," Yusuke remarked. "It's on tonight."
*********************************************************************
Somewhere within Shibuya District: 11:20 A.M.
Rei was watching more images of her past childhood, including those of her child self being welted by a man who looked like her father. She tried to shake off these illusionary images and turns away.
"No! These images aren't real. Pharaohmon, if you think these stupid images are going to break me down mentally, then you're mistaken!"
"Oh, am I? According to you're memories, you've had quite some experiences with this man you call a father…"
Suddenly, another image appears before Rei. It looked to be another image from the past. However, she didn't remember seeing anything related to this sort.
"Now what? That looks like my father with another woman. This looks very recent, because my mother passed away years ago. And… that girl!"
Rei's eyes widened as she got a good look on a girl. She looked like a younger image of Rei, except this girl has red streaks through her raven hair. The Senshi of fire was completely stunned by the girl standing next to her father and the woman.
"What's this supposed to mean?"
"Interesting, Rei Hino has no idea who this girl happens to be. My guess is that they've never met. She did mention that her mother passed away. Therefore, her father found another woman and had another child. No wonder Rei is in a state of shock. Can it be that this girl on this image happens to be the same priestess girl who nearly destroyed me? How can a girl have access into the Digital World, unless she entered a Digital Field… Then how did she get her powers and since when did the Sovereigns rely on a human to do their bidding? It looks like I still have more pieces to find to solve this puzzle. My past is beginning to come back to me. Slowly, but surely."
Rei was still in a state of shock at the image of the girl that seemed to be her long lost sister.
"How come I never knew about this? Ok, I admit I never spoke with my father much, but I had no idea I have a sister or so I think. It's simply another mind ploy by you, Pharaohmon! I'm not falling for it!"
Just then, a shadowy figure comes walking out from the darkness and its eyes emitted a crimson glow. Rei turns and faces the mysterious person.
"Pharaohmon! Enough of these mind games. I'm not going to fall for these crappy illusions. What gives you any right to toy with my memories? Do you hear me?!"
"I hear you. However, this is merely a test. I need to know if you happened to be in connection with an enemy of mine that once destroyed me. You are similar to the same priestess girl who aided the Sovereigns to led to the demise of my empire."
"Is that so? Well, you have the wrong person," Rei retorted. "However, I will say that I will succeed where that priestess failed to accomplish. I'm taking you down!"
"I doubt it, because you might not be the one I'm looking for," he stated. "But that girl might be. Who knows maybe I'll pay her a visit."
"Please, that's just an image! She's not real!"
"You think so? You truly are a sad excuse of a sister," Pharaohmon said. "You are willing to abandon family just for the sake of your own self. Pretty selfish if you ask me."
"Why do you even care about my family?! You don't know a god damn thing about me!"
"Such a dirty mouth and you call yourself a Shinto priestess? I have everything I need to know. If you really care for this 'sister' of yours, then you wills top me. It's your choice. But I'm not going to be the one whose heart breaks when she hears the news of her own flesh and blood being slaughtered by a maniac."
"You wouldn't…" the girl said with venom in her tone.
"I would and I will, but in due time. I have a date tonight. If you care to know a little more about you're so-called sibling, then you'll meet me at the twin buildings within Shinjuku district. I hope you have the courage to show up."
"I'll be there. I'll stop you no matter what it takes."
"Well, then. I hope to see you then. Don't be late…"
Rei digs deep into her purse and pulls out an anti-evil seal. She chants her spell and tosses it towards the shadowy figure. As soon it made contact with the figure, everything within Hell's realm vanished in a flash of light. Rei found herself in the middle of the train station again and time had returned to normal.
"Was he simply toying with me? Why wasn't I told about having a younger sister? This is just too confusing… But I have to know…"
The raven-haired girl placed a hand over her forehead and walks about towards the train. She had a lot of thinking to do before planning a visit to Pharaohmon at Hypnos HQ. Little did she know that another group of heroes were going to infiltrate that same building to face off against Horusmon.
Looking on from the crowd of people was an adult woman with long, green hair flowing down her back. She was wearing what looked like a business suit and a pair of high heels. Standing next to her looked like a teenage girl with dark, gothic-like clothing and raven hair. She looks up at the woman with curiosity.
"Setsuna! That was Rei I just saw."
"Yes. I heard everything being discussed between her and the enemy, Pharaohmon."
"It's a good thing you can control time. Are we going to that same place Rei is heading off to?"
"Yes. It's time we find the underlying cause of this. We can't let this enemy continue to torment the souls of the innocent."
*********************************************************************
Shinjuku Park: 12:34 P.M.
The Tamers and Yugi's group managed to come together to think out their next plan. Yami Yugi turned towards Hypnos HQ with curiosity. Takato walks up to the spike-haired boy.
"Why are you looking at Hypnos, Yugi?"
"Is that what it's called? Well, I have a hunch that Pharaohmon will strike in that building next."
"Especially if he plans to use duel monsters as a ploy to lure us into a trap. I have a bad feeling about this, Yami."
Is Yugi right? Pharaohmon obviously has interest in Duel Monsters, but what does Hypnos have anything to do with it? Maybe new technology? Horusmon has challenged the Spirit Detectives and the Legendary Warriors to a showdown at the same facility. Not to mention the fact that Pharaohmon has asked Rei to meet him face to face within the omnious facility. Will there be a revelation behind this long-lost sibling to her? The showdown will commence at Hypnos, but is it merely a trap by Pharaohmon?
Preview
Takuya: Yo! This is Takuya Kanbara, legendary warrior of fire! On the next chapter, we'll be heading off to these twin buildings in Shinjuku where myself, Junpei and Tomoki will face against Horusmon in a rumble!
Yusuke: Don't forget about us. He owes me a rematch.
Hiei: Horusmon, it's time for you to be introduced to you're worst nightmare.
[Suddenly, a black dragon made from flames surrounds Hiei as Horusmon looks on with utter horror.]
Lobomon: Forgetting about us already? Let me have a shot at this punk! Execute! Fusion Evolution! Beowulfmon!
Takato: Yamaki is willing to help us out. He told me that a group of digimon has infiltrated Hypnos. Pharaohmon has to be behind this!
Yami Yugi: I don't know what he's scheming, but there's a good chance he's looking for some technological devices to create duel disks just like Kaiba.
Rika: But why has he taken an interest in dueling us?
Lance: Dueling you? No, I merely set a trap for you! Attack my Scrabmon! I have a little date with a certain Sailor bitch.
Sailor Mars: Pharaohmon! I know you're here! Show yourself, you coward!
Lance: As you wish…
Sailor Mars: But you're a boy! You've taken refuge inside that boy's body!

*********************************************************************
17: Well, that ends another chapter. Not bad. I like this Pharaohmon! Continue the torture, my friend!
Coral: Sicko, you killed SSJ4T! Bastard. Anyway, it's time to answer those reviews! First off, Winged Knight asks if the other four spirits will get fusion evolutions? No, we don't have plans to for now. But who knows?
17: I'll take the next crappy question…
Coral: Be nice to our guests! No, I'll take the questions. Crimson G. has a bunch of questions. First, he asks if Impmon or his Tamers will show up? Yeah, they'll show up after the Hypnos chapter. Is Suzie ever going to appear? Yeah, after the Hypnos chapter. Will Yugi use polymerization to fuse both War Greymon and Metal Garurumon together? Maybe. ^-^
17: Pfft, you have a way of answering questions, saiyan.
Coral: Shut the hell up, android trash! Crimson G also asks if Leomon will return to Jeri? No, there are no plans to resurrect Leomon. It's pretty cliche because I've seen many fics where Leomon is brought back. But who knows? You might see him come back. As for Shadow games, well we've already seen Pharaohmon summon a sort of Shadow Realm in this chapter, so we'll be seeing plenty of those along the way. Youkai Youko, thanks for the compliments. ^_^ Would we like to use Inumon in this series? Hmm, that sounds good. After the Hypnos chapter is done, we just might add in some custom characters. We'll be sure to email you.
17: But I killed SSJ4T! Sorry, but he can't answer you're email. ;)
Coral: No, because I will! Now Fett asks if Megidramon's uncorrupted form might make an appearance in the D-Frontier series? Maybe. Nothing is set in stone yet. Now Kell Shock asks if Guilmon will ever use the Gallantmon form? We've decided to let Guilmon have two mega forms. He has a choice which form he'd like to use in battle. TC, don't worry we realize that Chaos Dukemon vs. Gallantmon is a cliché. We have a new form for the fake Megidramon. Thank you for the Hiei information, Joseph D. Hale. Looks like you'll be getting you're wish for Dragon of the Darkness Flame in the next chapter. ^^
17: Yeah, whatever. I'm in charge and SSJ4T is dead for good!
[Suddenly, the entire room goes dark and bells start to toll. 17 sits up and looks around. He then turns around and finds words written on the wall. They are written in blood. The message says: You can't kill what's already dead, 17. You shall rest in peace. Signed, you know who]
17: Damn, don't tell me…
Coral: He's coming back to reclaim his rightful spot. You just triggered his dark side. Sucks to be you.
17: Bah, this is just an ominous message! He's not coming back.
Coral: Well see. Thanks for the contributions and comments, reviewers! We appreciate each of them, though we did receive a flame message from a fucking flamer. Don't worry, we've erased this anonymous review. Sorry this chapter was late, but we've had things to do. Until then, peace out everyone! ^-^
