Chapter 34
It's his and Jager's birthday today. He'll be turning fourteen today and he's a bit nervous about it. He still remembers about how today might be the end of him aging as well as him looking the way he does. He knows that it'll be a while before they find out if they're aging or not, but today could be the day when his Antibody activates, along with Patamon's.
He told Kari about everything five days after Jager told him. She was very supportive and they have only grown closer since. They have also started going official six months ago. It was Kari asked him to be her boyfriend and he said yes. It had been on of the happiest days of his life.
He closes his eyes and tries to calm down. He takes deep breaths and counts to ten before exhaling. He does this for five minutes and he soon finds himself calming down. He opens his eyes and glance at where Jager is waiting. He sits down and asks, "How long do you think we'll be here for?" Jager snaps out of his thoughts and answers "Might be a couple of hours." "What are you thinking about?" He asks. "About the last demon lord." His brother says. He is interested in this. "You guys haven't talked about that one yet. Maybe you could tell it while we wait?" He asks.
(--------------------------------------Jager------------------------------------------)
"You guys haven't talked about that one yet. Maybe you could tell it while we wait?" His younger brother asks him. He smiles a bit at this and nods. "The last demon lord was Barbamon. He was an expert at casting spells. Surprisingly, Revmon and I decided to for go trailing through the surrounding area of the base…"
(-/-/-/-)
He sits on Shalindramon's back. He stares at the volcano that is Barbamon's base. They had decided that it was too much of a hustle to try and sneak into the base. They decided on the direct approach for this one.
Currently they have eight Airdramon on Shalindramon's tail. They have been dodging attacks from them and have also countered attacked too. They use to have eighteen Airdramon tailing them; the ten were victims of Shadow Beam and Star Storm.
"There! By the crystal!" He shouts and points. "On it!" His partner says. Soon they are diving towards the crystal. They enter the cave system without the Airdramon being able to follow them. They continue to fly through the caverns until they found a good spot to relax at. His partner had been doing some fancy flying for the last hour and Shalindramon needs his rest.
His partner transforms back into Revmon and they then just sit down. He takes out two water bottles and tosses one to Revmon. They gulp down some of the water and then he puts the bottles back into his pack. They rest for another ten minutes. Then they got up off the ground and Revmon Armour Digivolves into Shalindramon. He climbs onto his partner's back and they're off.
They travel for a good three hours, evading attacks from Meramon and DarkLizardmon. They finally come to a platform in the middle of lava pit. They land there and his partner transforms back into Revmon. They both were feeling the heat.
They study the platform when crystal things appear. Revmon dodges the rocks thrown by the crystal things. Then Revmon uses Air Slasher to send the three flying. "I'll have to improve that spell." A voice says.
Revmon and him are now on their guard. "Well I might as well introduce myself, I'm Barbamon." A Digimon appears before them. Barbamon holds a staff in his one hand and nothing in the other. The robe that the demon lord is wearing is mostly blue with red designs on it. Barbamon's wings were also red too. All in all, Barbamon isn't that tall for a mega level Digimon.
"Lets make this quick, shall we? I have a world to conquer you know." Barbamon says in a bored voice. He sighs and Revmon moves forward. "Revmon Warp Digivolve to… SangRyuumon!" The great red dragon towers over everyone.
Barbamon then says, "Pandemonium Lost!" The attack hits SangRyuumon and his partner snorts and takes a swing at the smaller mega. Barbamon teleports out of the way and Barbamon attacks with Pandemonium Lost. His partner bats the attack away and snaps at Barbamon.
"This could be much harder then I first thought it would be." Barbamon says as he dodges another swipe of his partner's claws. Then Barbamon bangs the end of his staff onto the ground. Barbamon chants and a shape appears out of the ground. It's a dragon like being made out of lava.
He just stares at the thing Barbamon summoned. It looks to be Chinese dragon. There's stem coming off the fake dragon. Its feet were already burning the ground it's standing on. The thing the tries to roar but no sound is heard from it. The thing is smaller and more snakelike then his partner, he just hopes that SangRyuumon will take that into account.
The fake dragon charges his partner and SangRyuumon uses his tail to attack. The metal blade enters the lava creature and then SangRyuumon sends it into the air. His partner then uses Forgotten Chaos on the thing. He looks at his partner's tail blade and finds that other then it looking a bit red, it looks fine.
"Bravo. But now you can't use that lovely attack again." Barbamon says. "Why not?" He asks. "I just scanned the attack and have put up a shield to divert the attack into the volcano. You use it and this volcano erupts. You wouldn't want that now, would you?" Barbamon says dryly.
"Find, Blood Curse!" His partner growls out. He watches as something comes out of his partner's body and surrounds Barbamon. The stuff is red and takes the shape of small dragons. They attack Barbamon, the mega tries to fend them off, but they soon overwhelm the demon lord. The small red dragons tear Barbamon apart.
Once Barbamon is gone, the volcano begins to erupt. He quickly climbs up his partner's hind leg. He makes it to the back of his partner before his partner takes off. SangRyuumon breaks through the top of the volcano, they soar above the erupting volcano. They soon leave the area after a good two minutes. They didn't look back.
(-/-/-/-)
He finishes up the story. "I didn't know that SangRyuumon had another attack other then Forgotten Chaos." TK says. He shrugs and says, "Revmon just likes to use the one. As a mega, Revmon has three attacks. Other then Curse Blood and Forgotten Chaos, there's Eternal Chaos. This attack engulfs a large area. It totally corrupts the data of the surrounding area. I had him show me it once and believe me; it took Gennai and me three years to sort out the bugs and to repair the damaged data. It was also the first time that I ever seen Azulongmon so angry."
(----------------------------------------TK------------------------------------------)
He just looks awed at this bit of information. "You got a sovereign angry?" He says. His brother just nods. "And you're still alive?" He asks. "Yip." Jager says. He just shakes his head, trying to get over the fact that Revmon could have so much power.
The door opens and Joe says, "It's time." They exchange a glance before he steps through the door. They had been locked in a room cause someone thought it might be more of a surprise that way.
He walks into the room and looks surprise at the cake and about how many presents there are. There were also other Digidestine other then their group. It was in January of two years ago that they found out about other kids partnered with Digimon. The reason that they hadn't ran into them in the Digital World was simple, they didn't know how to use the Digi Port, so they've been hiding their Digimon partners since Spiral Mountain appeared in the skies around the world. When Gennai did try to reach them, they only thought it a hoax. It wasn't until Mimi finding a Betamon who is Michel's partner did they become aware of them. With Gennai's help, they tracked down the others and taught them how to access the Digi Port. They also made new friends along the way. Though Jager and Revmon did admit that they knew that there were others who have been partnered with Digimon, they just didn't know if they still were around in this timeline.
He greets people and then continues to look around, hoping to find Kari. He spies Guilmon X talking with Ken and Izzy. He's stunned at that, but continues to look around. He notices that Sora, Mimi, and Yolei were also not around. He looks for Tai and asks, "Kari?" Tai grins and says, "Kitchen." "Thanks." He says to Tai. He leaves Tai and Matt alone and heads for the kitchen.
He opens the door and tries to walk into the kitchen when Yolei shuts the door. "You'll just have to wait, lover boy. We need all the hand we have and you whisking your princess away will have to wait." Yolei tells him. He sighs and turns away from the kitchen.
Before he enters the room again, Patamon finds him. "Happy Birthday TK!" His partner says to him. "Thanks Patamon. Where's Jager?" He asks. "Over with Joe and Sharon." Patamon answers. Patamon then takes his usual spot on his head.
He finds Jager talking with Joe and his girl friend. He didn't know how the story went, but Jager helped Joe meet up with Sharon at a Halloween party years ago. If anyone was to be Joe's best man at his wedding, it will be Jager.
"Hey man! Happy Birthday." Davis says. He turns to find Davis behind him. Davis has grown over the two years and now has a better relationship with Tai, now that Davis gave up on Tai's sister.
Also when Davis, Cody, and Yolei were told about Jager's past, they took it real well. Davis tried to pump info about girls and Yolei just hugged Ken real close. Cody just shrugged it off. It should be noted that Yolei and Ken had been trying to connect on their own, without Jager ever mentioning about Ken and Yolei dating, so learning that they had, only made Yolei think that they were destine to be together.
"Thanks, Davis." He says. "No problem." Davis says and they talk for a bit. Then they separate, Davis when to find his French girlfriend and he went to get something to drink.
More people come up to talk with him and to wish him a happy birthday. He moves around the room, either being dragged about or of his own will. Then he notices that someone's coming from the kitchen. He sighs as he finds that it's just Sora. He watches with amusement as Tai sweet talks his girlfriend. He watches as Sora leads Tai on for a few minutes before heading back to the kitchen. Matt slaps Tai on the shoulder and tells Tai something. He just shakes his head and continues on moving through the room.
(---------------------------------------Revmon-------------------------------------)
He grins innocently as the food appears. He knows that Jager's doesn't believe him but Mimi interferes with Jager moving towards him. He looks around for Matt; he watches as Matt rolls his eyes as his girlfriend leads Jager towards where TK is.
He slowly makes his way towards his spot by Jager. He hopes that by the time he reaches Jager, his partner will be too busy to glare at him. He really needs to get Jager a girlfriend. He knows that whatever feelings Jager has for Kari, they didn't transfer to this Kari.
He pulls out his chair and listens to everyone finish singing Happy Birthday. They then started eating, the signal for the others to begin. He decided to get help with finding Jager a girlfriend. He knows that Mimi will be thrilled with this.
