Chapter 9

He watches from the vantage point. They finished getting the packs from Matt and Tai's apartments, grabbing something to eat before leaving Matt's though. He watches as WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon's attacks seem not to scratch VenomMyostismon.

"Should we get closer?" Revmon asks. "You want to help out?" He asks his partner. "Not really, but the gate might open right away." His best friend points out. He sighs and nods, not taking his eye's off the battle before them. He gets up and looks for where he dropped the packs. He picks up the three other packs and then follows Revmon off the roof.

Soon they reach the streets and they walk towards the area where Tai, Matt, TK, and Kari will most likely be in. After walking for a good fifteen minutes, they clear the buildings in time to watch, as VenomMyotismon gets defeated. He then looks to his chest to find the Life Cycle crest glowing. The crest glows white. The design of the crest of Life Cycles is simple, it has what looks to be a 6 and a 9 fused together at the circles with a tiny white triangle by at the top space and a tiny solid triangle at the bottom space.

He looks puzzled and both he and Revmon both stop at this. Then he notices particles of VenomMyotismon's data also begin to glow. Then they hear a scream as the glowing particles get vaporized. Revmon then says dryly, "I guess no control spires." He just sighs and finds the crest has returned to normal before continuing to walk towards the group.

They make it in time for the sky to ripple and show the Digital World. He walks up to the group without any of them noticing him or Revmon. He then says, "Time to go." That startles everyone and Joe says, "I thought that I was about to have a heart attack!" "Don't do that! It's bad enough that the sky's gone bonkers!" Mimi states. "Sorry about that, it's just that you guys were out of it." He says in an apologetic tone. "We forgive you!" TK says. "Thanks." He says.

He then places the other three packs on the ground and says, "Here's the packs I promised to get." Matt, Tai, and Kari then each pick their pack up and shoulder them.

Some of the parents show put, Joe's brother also appears too. He watches as the others all say their good byes, he watches as his parents also say bye to Matt and his other self.

"So, what about me?" Wizardmon asks. "You'll be safer here." Revmon answers. He turns and looks at the champion level Digimon. "Sorry, but it's true. When we get back, I'll send you back myself." He promises the wizard. "You think I can't help?" Wizardmon demands. "A lot of Digimon will be getting deleted, Wizardmon. The four Dark Masters are mega level Digimon. It was rough the first time Jager and I witnessed it. It'll be rougher still, for Jager and I will be trying not to fight their battles for them." Revmon tells the other Digimon. Wizardmon then asks quietly, "You'll stop them from getting killed then?" He answers, "That's why we're here. They need to fight the coming battles or it'll be a cheap victory if I let Revmon just takes out all of the Dark Masters." Wizardmon sighs and nods slowly. "I'll trust your judgement in this." The wizard says simply. "Thank you, my friend." He says and Revmon echo's his statement.

"Hey! We're waiting!" Tai yells out. Both him and his partner turn away from Wizardmon and look at where the group has gathered. They walk over and he then enters the column of light first with Revmon right behind him. Then as he begins to float upwards, the others also step into the light.

Soon they are flying through the air. They then find themselves falling through the air and land roughly on the ground. He moves Revmon's tail out of his face and slowly moves his legs, trying not to kick Revmon. Soon they untangle from each other and they then stand up. He looks up at the sky and can see the real world from here.

He then looks around and soon spies spiral mountain. His eyes harden as he remembers everything that they all went through the last time around. He blinks and looks away. He sighs and runs a hand through his white hair.

He then hears TK shout, "Over here!" Both him and his partner turn towards where they heard TK and then move towards that area. His hoping that whatever it is, that it'll take his mind off of what's about to happen.

They find Mimi hugging Chuumon and the other forming a circle around Mimi. He notices that Matt has his hand on TK's shoulder for comfort. He smiles a bit at this and then focuses on what is being decided on.

Soon MetalSeadramon attacks them, he bites the bottom of his lip and then comes to a decision. "Tai! Have WarGreymon attack MetalSeadramon with Mega Claw!" He shouts to Tai. "Huh?" Tai says, but Matt just says, "Just do it!" Tai just sighs and does as he was told to do.

Agumon warps Digivolves to WarGreymon. "You think that you can stop me! Think again fools!" MetalSeadramon shouts. "Mega Claw!" WarGreymon shouts and is soon spinning towards the first Dark Master. The attack hits MetalSeadramon in the mouth and soon WarGreymon drills through MetalSeadramon's whole body. Soon MetalSeadramon is deleted and so is the water area of Spiral Mountain.

"Good job, WarGreymon!" TK shouts out. "That goes double for me!" Tai yells. "Should you have told us how to delete him?" Izzy asks him. He looks guilty and says, "I just didn't watch a good friend of ours get deleted by MetalSeadramon." Izzy's sharp look softens and says, "I guess it's hard reliving some things, huh?" He just nods his head. "That's all the help I can give. The other three are tougher. Plus, I'm not sure how Machinedramon was deleted though, I wasn't there to witness it or Puppetmon's deletion." He admits to Izzy. "I'm sure we'll be extra careful when dealing with them." Sora says. Others listening in to what Izzy and him were saying all nod their heads in agreement.

Soon Puppetmon attacks and they have their Digimon go ultimate, only Tai's partner didn't Digivolve having lost too much energy in warp Digivolving to WarGreymon once again and Revmon didn't attack or Digivolve. They soon meet up with Machinedramon and then find themselves in a stadium.

There they meet a clown that tells a story, only with MetalSeadramon alive and well. He rolls his eyes, as the others get mad at this little story. He watches Revmon out of the corner of his eye. When Revmon ears move slightly up and then down, he lets Revmon Digivolve.

(-------------------------------------Revmon---------------------------------------)

He feels the familiar energy and lets it wash over him. He had heard Piximon flying towards them and knows that the little pink ball of a Digimon will be here within two minutes.

"Revmon Digivolve to … Fylgiamon!" He shouts out. As Fylgiamon, he stands good six and half feet tall, for Jager got bored one day and decided to measured him as a champion and in his other forms too. He looks human but his skin colour is a dark grey, hair and his cloths are black. On his back are two pairs of feathered wings. One set of wings are white with gold tips and the second set of wings are black with silver tips. His eyes are covered with a simple black cloth. He has white sandals on though. He looks to be angel; only he's not really. His nails look to be claws and he has a pair of light purple horns about half a foot long coming out of his forehead. It's more like he's an angel crossed with a demon was how Jager told him, and after taking a look at a picture that Jager took decades ago, he had to agree with Jager on that one.

He then uses his Shadow Illusion attack to fool Piedmon into thinking that there were eight more groups of Digidestine. Soon he finds himself in a floating sphere. He then lets himself transform back into Revmon. He finally feels useful.

"That's amazing!" Kari says. The others also agreed with her. "It's nothing…" He admits modestly. "Not an easy thing, no sirrie, to fool the strongest of the Dark Masters!" Piximon says. He had to admit that Piximon is right about that. Shadow Illusion is a minor attack compared with his other two attacks.

"I see you also have a new friend. I'm Piximon." Piximon says. "I'm Jager Kimura. This is my partner Revmon." His partner introduces them to the little pink Digimon. He notices that the others were surprised at the last name, but they got over it. Piximon studies both him and his partner, and then says, "I'm surprise that you guys were able to defeat a Dark Master already, yes sirrie! You won't get lucky like that again." "But it makes it three Dark Masters to defeat, right?" Mimi asks. "True, but they'll not underestimate you guys again. No sirrie!" Piximon says. He hears Jager sigh a bit and he decides to watch the scenery fly by.

"We'll defeat them! It's our destiny!" Tai suddenly says with confidents. "Yea! We got Courage, Friendship, Love, Knowledge, Reliability, Sincerity, Hope, Light, and Life Cycles on our side, so we'll win for sure." Sora says. The others agree with this, Piximon turns to study Jager and him with a bit more interest on hearing about the crest that his partner possesses.

Then Piximon nods slowly in agreement. "Good luck to you all then, this is your stop." The sphere stops over a forest area, Puppetmon's area. "Aren't you going to help us?" Mimi asks. "Sorry, but I have business else where." Piximon answers, then glances over at him and his partner. The others get the drift and Mimi then says, "Could you take Chuumon with you?" They all turn to look at the pink mouse Digimon. They forgot all about him, truth be told. "Thank you for caring about me." Chuumon says.

The sphere lowers itself to the ground and they then jump out of the sphere. They then turn and watch as Piximon and Chuumon disappear. They remained like that for a good eight minutes before TK says, "We defeated them before, and we can defeat them again." He grins and Joe then says, "It couldn't hurt to look for allies as we go." Mimi then says, "Maybe Joe and me can go look for them, while you guys confront the Dark Master of this area?" "I don't know… I though it'd be best to stick together." Tai says. "Let them go, Tai. We might need the help that they'll find on their own journey." Matt says. He smiles, as they didn't look to Jager for approval.

He stands by his partner's side, just watching as the group talk about it. They then voted on it, with only two votes against Mimi and Joe from leaving the group. It was Tai and Agumon the voted against them leaving. Jager and him didn't vote, so they watch as Mimi, Palmon, Joe, and Gomamon disappear among the trees.

"So, now what?" Tai muses out loud. "We find Puppetmon's place." Jager answers, thus reminding the others that Jager and him were still here. "You know where it is?" Matt asks. "It's been like ages since I been there, and it was only those two times… So not really." Jager admits to the group. They all just blink owlishly at this. "Might as well get searching." Matt says. They all nod in agreement with that statement.

To Readers:

Fylgia is a Norwegian shadow soul, often an individual's guardian spirit. It's seems like a perfect name for Revmon's champion form. For Jager doesn't act like TK would have or thinks along that pattern. True be told, Jager let his grief and anger get the better of him for the first few decades of his rebirth. You'll have to wait to read more about Jager's past; I promise that it'll be worth the wait! Thanks for reading my story.
