Flamedramon's Destiny
Another digimon fanfic by: Imp24
Chapter 2"My Evil Twin"
"What are you talking about?" asked Hikari in a surprised voice.
"The digimon looked like Flamedramon. Not only that, he seems to be as powerful as Imperialdramon." Replied Gatomon in a faint voice.
"He just swift right through us like we're just pile of papers!" added Hawkmon.
"There's something wrong here. Why is he looking for Veemon?" asked Davis as he tries to figure out what situation are they're in to.
"I don't know…he just asked a simple question, but we can't tell him as you know, we couldn't trust him. He got angry and just burned us like dust." Replied Patamon as he tries to get up.
"Why don't we return to the real world and rest for a while? These digimons look pale." Suggested Yolei. The others agreed and raised their digivices. The portal opened and out they go together with their digimons.
Meanwhile, when they disappeared, a dark figure came and stares at the point where the portal appeared a few minutes ago. The figure resembles the shape of Flamedramon, which you know; he's the one who slashed apart the three digimons.
Real World
The digidestineds are staying at Daisuke's place for a while since that's the nearest place from the digital café. They're at the living room, each of the digidestined are taking care of his/her own digimon. Their digimons are lying down peacefully at the sofa.
"I don't understand. Why would a digimon do such a thing? I mean, we defeated the great masters of evil in the digital world…we couldn't possibly expect another one." Daisuke said as he stares outside the window thinking about the tragedy. He looked down at the poor digimons. They looked like as if they've been through a violent war.
"Don't worry, Daisuke. I'm sure we can find out what had happened. For a meantime, let our digimons rest," convinced Hikari as she rubs Gatomon's forehead with a wet blanket.
"Veemon, do you have to do anything with this kind of situation?" asked Takeru.
Veemon thought about it first but he said, "I don't remember having an evil twin."
"This might have to explain with something that had happened when Flamedramon was first born." Takeru said as he stares at Patamon lying deeply on the sofa.
"I'm not sure. Flamedramon came from my digi-egg of Courage, which I received a few months ago."
"Well, we couldn't just leave it like this, or else other digimons will get hurt too." Said Yolei as she tries to warm Hawkmon with her gentle arms.
"Ouch! Hey! Don't squeeze me too much!" yelled Hawkmon.
"We'll go there." Murmured Daisuke.
"What did you say?" pardoned Hikari.
"We'll go there and ask him face to face…why?"
"Are you crazy? That digimon just swiped our digimons in one hit!"
"Well do you think that will solve the problem? I know even virus type digimons couldn't just kill someone without a reason."
"You're right. But let's rest for a while…"
Davis agreed to Hikari as he sat down on the chair. He suddenly remembered his homework. Daisuke ran upstairs not saying a word. The digidestineds exchanged glances wondering why he just dashed in his room. Daisuke popped his head out and said, "I've got something to do. Um, you could stay here for a while if you want."
"Oh no, that's okay. We could go home by ourselves now." Said Hikari carrying Gatomon on her arms. "You have to work on your extra homework anyway…right, Davis?"
"How did—but what…" Daisuke said not believing what Hikari just said.
The three friends of Daisuke walked out of the house slamming the door shut. Daisuke first looked troubled, but he just ignored it and closed the door in his room.
The next day, like any other day, was school day. Daisuke had to hurry up for school. While he's putting his socks on, he took a quick glance on Veemon sleeping soundly on the bed. I think he's going to be alright, Daisuke thought. Then he took out his bag and ran out of the door.
Meanwhile, a few minutes later, Veemon woke up scratching his eyes. He looked around the room knowing that Daisuke went to school today. He jumped out of the bed and saw something that caught his attention.
"It's Davis' digivice… I have to give it to him." Veemon said staring at Daisuke's digivice lying on the desk.
Veemon took the digivice on the desk and ran outside.
When he's crossing the Internet café, the digivice glowed and shook. Veemon stopped looking at the digivice. He wondered why it is glowing. He glanced at his right side where the Internet café is standing. When he walked nearer at the café, all the computers are glowing too. He trembled not knowing why this is all happening.
Without warning, Veemon was sucked in through the door heading towards the computer. Veemon tried to struggle to escape, but the some his cells are already sucked in the computer. Finally, he went inside the computer without any caution.
Veemon arrived at digiworld unconscious. When he woke up, he's in a large cave filled with endless darkness.
"Why am I here?" asked Veemon to himself.
"Don't worry, brother. I will not hurt you." Echoed a voice coming from the deep holes of the cavern.
"Who's there?" asked Veemon again with trembling body.
The dark figure came closer; the light passing through the hole spreads the figure revealing its true self. Veemon popped out his eyes as he sees another Flamedramon standing right in front of him. The creature's armor is more of the color of darkness. His helmet is colored dark violet, the light reflected his shimmering horn. The fire design displayed on his dark chest armor is longer and darker than the original Flamedramon. His claws attached to the round and dark armor gloves glittered like silver. His eyes are more evil and redder than the usual. His scales are tinted dark blue, which shows his dark form.
The evil-looking Flamedramon roams around and tries to look at the face of Veemon. Veemon got up and looked at him back. He tries to remember if he knows that digimon or not. But still…nothing came out of his head.
"You haven't changed, Flamedramon." The dark Flamedramon finally whispered.
"How do you know about me? And my name is Veemon!" yelled Veemon as he tries to prepare a fight.
The dark Flamedramon laughed so loud that the cave shook so hard. He looked closely at Veemon and said, "Yes, you ARE Veemon. But that doesn't make any similarity to Flamedramon."
"What do you mean? I am the one and only Flamedramon. Daisuke gave me the power to evolve into him," answered Veemon.
"The one and only? Hahaha! My dear child, I have a favor to ask you."
"What do you want?"
"I want you to digivolve into Flamedramon and see my face! Let's see if you can recognize me."
Veemon not knowing why, he agreed and digivolved into Flamedramon since the digivice of Daisuke is there. When he finished digivolve, Flamedramon stood up and looked at his identical twin. But still, Flamedramon doesn't remember anything familiar about him.
"My brother…I'm so glad to see you again!" said the dark Flamedramon as he tries to come closer to Flamedramon.
"B-brother? What are you talking about!" yelled Flamedramon trying to step back.
"Have you forgotten about our relationship?" asked the dark digimon.
"I cannot remember anything…"
"Let me tell you this clearly. You see, it's true you were born from a digi-egg. But there's a history before that."
"A history?"
The dark digimon walked across Flamedramon looking at the light on the hole above and said, "Before that digi-egg went into your so called, digidestined, and before all the tragedy of the digimon emperor and before all the digidestineds have come into the digiworld…we were there, brother. We were there, happily living together."
Flamedramon looked back at him and thinking that this guy's insane.
"I was…alive before all the digidestineds came?" asked Flamedramon.
"Yes, that's true. Many years ago, the digiworld was still a simple land and they were creating digi-eggs. One digi-egg had fallen from the sky and when it hatched, two digimons were born. That was us as baby digimons."
"You mean we are…twins? We've been born together?"
"We grew up together and lived happily together. One day, we digivolved into Champion type digimons…and now and then, we became powerful as usual."
"But what happened to you? Why are we separated from each other?"
"That's the sad part…a few months after we digivolved, a powerful digimon came by. A digimon who controlled the whole digiworld. He said he wanted to make a sacrifice so that the digiworld will remain alive. He'll only choose the virus type digimons. But he made a mistake…"
"What kind of mistake?"
"He chose you to be the sacrifice! I tried to defend you, as you tried to defend yourself. But the digimon god couldn't believe us and he…he…killed you unmercifully!"
Flamedramon looked down the ground trying to remember…
"I still cannot remember anything…"
"That's the point! You vanished into thin air! I tried to look for your digi-egg but I cannot find it anywhere. The digimon god said that you deserved to be killed because only one of us must be alive so that…no chaos will happen…"
"So we were…abandoned because we're too violent?"
"Yes. We killed so many digimons because they're jealous of our powers. I was abandoned too…they kicked me out of the land full of digimons and I lived all alone by myself now. And one day, I saw a glowing violet crystal standing in front of me. It's the power of ultimate energy. I know what I have to do…and what I must do is to avenge you, brother! So I was possessed by the power of the crystal and I received the dark powers of the night. Now, I will forgive no one, and my destiny is too destroy this digiworld!"
"No…you can't…"
"And finally, I have found you, brother…I know I remained the same level so that it can serve as a remembrance for the two of us. I cannot digivolve further now, but my powers are indestructible…"
"So…what are you going to do next to me?"
"…Come with me, brother…join me and together, we will rule this land!"
