Chapter 14

This is there fifth mission since they got to Bright Dawn. This one is a bit different then the other missions though. This time they were going up against a mega level Digimon. The Digimon is called a Boltmon. The one that they're send to find and stop is named Guts.

To find Guts was kind of simple. Just follow that trail of destruction. This trail leads them towards some hill. They wonder if Guts was order to lead them here, or just wanted to fight them here.

He looks at Jinx and then over a where Lan is. He then says, "You think this will be hard?" Lan turns his head and looks at him. "Worst, I think. I think that if we were able to go ultimate, then that might even some of the odds out, but just as champions…" Lan just trails off. He sighs and he might not like the fact that Lan's observations matched his own.

They have been living at Bright Dawn for a good two weeks now. He knows that as the time approached that they'd be given harder missions, but he wonders if they were ready to face this Guts. It didn't matter that there were two of them; he's seen what one mega level Digimon named Tundra, who's a Vikemon, could do. He shivers slightly at the memory, for there had been a good many Digimon, both as champions and ultimates, and they couldn't match the power of Tundra.

He didn't like that idea of fighting someone that's not only crazed, but has that kind of power to back it up. He looks over at Jinx, as if knowing what they were thinking Jinx then says, "I'll stay here." He then pats Jinx on the head when the white Digimon lands. "Just be safe." He tells Jinx. Jinx smiles and just nods his head.

Lan then leads the way towards the hill. He only hopes that they'll come out this alive. They soon get within sight of the hill and the lone figure on it, waiting.

They Digivolved and then they split up. He moves to his right to get behind Guts. He takes his time getting into position. He's nervous, but he's determined to follow through with this plan of action.

He then hears the signal and speeds up the hill. He finds Lan biting down on the large axe that belongs to Guts. On seeing him, Guts then simple moves a bit and swings his axe towards him. He leaps into the air to evade the attack. He then uses Storm Blades on Guts. They hits and after tossing Lan off his axe, Guts then counters his attack by simply uses his axe to send his swords away.

He then dodges a series of slash attack from the axe. He watches as Lan then trips the mega level Digimon. They both watch as Guts rolls down hill. The axe lands in a tree. They glance at each other before charging in. He stops and goes back for his twin swords.

The set that greets him when he begins his descend wasn't pretty. It looks like Guts decided to use Lan as a punching bag. He charges blindly into the fight, hoping to stop the attack on his friend. He soon uses Cyclone Fury on Guts. The mega level Digimon gets many direct hits.

Then he dodges out of the way of an attack. He tries to retaliate but Guts just wouldn't let up. Then a something was glowing to his left. They both pause and turn to watch in stunned silences as Lan Digivolves.

Where there once stood a lion like Digimon, there was now a pissed off feline Digimon. The Digimon stood well over twenty feet tall and fifty feet long. The Digimon's eyes were still green but where there should be white, they were yellow. This Digimon's fangs were not covered, for they were too long for the lips to cover. Said fangs seem to be a good four feet long. This Digimon didn't have mane, only black strips on a dark red coat. On the head of this has two horns in a row, the first starts at the brow line and the second appears a good foot after the first one. This Digimon was huge and very much dangerous.

His goes for his Digivice. He finds it around his belt and takes it out and scans the ultimate form of Lan.

SangLigermon

Ultimate level Digimon

Vaccine type

Demon Beast. Attacks are Hell's Desert and Fire Gate.

He swallows as a bit. He had to admit that he was getting worried about this. Lan then says in a low, but deep voice, "Enough games, Guts! Time to finish this!" Guts laughs insanely and says, "You think you'll win?" Lan answers, he feels the sound in his very chest, "You don't know what you're dealing with." Guts just snort and say, in a mocking tone, "You're the great Digidestine, here to restore balance to this world. It just some stupid story and legend! You're nothing!"

With that Guts charges Lan. Lan then closes his eyes and says, in a calm tone, "Fire Gate." A gate appears before Guts and before Guts could to anything, Guts is pulled inside. He watches as Guts' axe deletes itself.

He just stands there, staring at his friend. Then Lan turns to look at him. "I'm that scary, huh?" Lan asks. He scratches the base of his skull and says, "I'm just happy you're in control." Lan snorts and then he glows again. In SangLigermon's place was now a Kovumon stood. He lets himself transform back into Aroomon.

They then both just sigh in relief. "You know, you are just one scary Mon." He tells Lan in a matter of fact voice. Lan just sighs and looks tired. They then head to find Jinx. They did what they were supposed to do, Guts is no longer a threat.

(--------------------------------------Lan--------------------------------------------)

He sighs as they reach Bright Dawn. It took them a good two days to get back here, and he couldn't wait to have a bath and just soak in the warm water.

He could still recall the smell of fear that came off of Chaud during his time as SangLigermon. He knew that he grew to be huge, but didn't know if he likes the fact that he could scare his friends as an ultimate. He remembers the power that he had at his disposal. He felt like he could take on the whole world and win. He didn't know just what to make of all that power, but he knew that he had a job to do.

He wonders if it's normal for him to Digivolve into demon beasts. He still was a vaccine, but he just doesn't get the fact that the two could go together. He's happy that Chaud got over his fear of his ultimate form, for he has come to treasure Chaud's friendship.

He smiles a bit as he wonders just what it'll be like to be human again. He's gotten a taste for battle and he kind of enjoys the rush he gets. He knows that it'll never be the same if he uses a Navi. It's not that he enjoys the danger, it's making a difference and that he could affect a lot of things by just fighting for a cause.

They shy away from the crowds, they didn't really know just what to make of their popularity and he was kind of scared by it too. They make to the castle by evading the popular areas of the city. They pass through the doors as the guards just wave them through on sight.

They soon find Alex, they report to her, and describe the fight and how they got rid of Guts. Alex takes the news well and they then find their way to their rooms. They split up, Chaud and Jinx going into their room and him going into his.

Soon he as a bath running and at the right temperature too, then he gets undressed and slips into the tub. He soon relaxes in the tub. After a good thirty minutes he gets out of the tub and puts on a robe. He then head to get some rest before dinner.

-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-

He looks at the group of Digimon that was to be their last assignment. Unlike him, Chaud has yet to go ultimate, but he's not worried about that. He figures that when the time is right, Chaud will Digivolve.

They attack the group of Digimon and within the hour, they were the victors. He feels kind of sad that they had to delete them, but they have been tracking this group for two days. This group tried to conquer a village but they managed to stop them before they could send in the second wave.

He looks mournfully at the area that they just turned into a battleground. He turns to find Chaud also deep in thought. Jinx just looks sadly around as well. He then slowly moves towards Chaud and then puts his hand on his right shoulder. Chaud turns to look at him and for a minute, it's like they both were in agreement. They have had enough, and they'll win their final battle. They well not let more innocents be pressed in to slavery by this Lord Arthas. They'll show this Digimon that his reckoning was here at hand.

(---------------------------------------Chaud---------------------------------------)

He sighs as they finally make it through the defences of this castle. He glances at Lan and finds that Lan sends him an encouraging look. He smiles slightly and then returns to the task at hand.

He thinks back to the information that they received five days ago. Lord Arthas is an UnKirralmon. Also Arthas is an undead mega. According to Lord Yama, UnKirralmon were a good ten feet tall and humanoid in appearance. This mega level Digimon not only is made up of bones but also has some flesh on some of his parts. They also learnt that this mega level Digimon has a pair of bone wings with fire making up the rest of the framework, like feathers.

He looks worriedly at Jinx who's hovering between Lan and him. He just prays that Jinx'll survive this. He then pushes those thoughts out of his head and reminds himself that they can and will make a difference.

They soon find some large doors and then they move and push gently on the doors. He then peeks into the room beyond them and finds that room is huge. He doesn't see anyone in the room and he then pushes the doors some more to open get through. He enters first with followed by Lan and finally by Jinx.

They look around the room as they move closer to the centre of the room. He's already a champion, but Lan hasn't Digivolved yet. He glances at Jinx and finds the Jinx was already finding a spot to watch from. A small smile appears on his face.

Lan then Digivolves into a champion. Then Lan stiffens and yells out, "I know you're here! Show yourself!" This is greeted with laughter that sends chills up and down his spine. "So, there are only two Digidestine? I would have thought that there would have been more sent against me! I am the great Lord Arthas, soon to be ruler of this world and in time, enslaver of humans as well." Lord Arthas says.

He narrows his eyes at that last bit. They'll stop him long before that ever happens. He draws both of his swords and gets into a fighting stance. Lan just Digivolves again into SangLigermon. Soon the mega makes an appearance.

Lord Arthas looks just what they were told, right down to the fiery wings. The clothing looks ragged and should be turned into rags. The open coat that this mega wears is a dark brown in colour. The pants were even worst off, for they truly were tatted beyond belief. Lord Arthas has flesh on his face, so they could easily see the twisted smile of this deranged mega. He also notices how some of the flesh just seems to hang there. This whole thing kind of reminds him of Halloween, surprisingly enough.

To Readers:

Sang means Blood in French, so that means that SangLigermon kind of translates into BloodLigermon. Hope you like this chapter and thanks for reading my story.
