Digimon: Elemental Mages

Ray of Light

The second of six crystals that Nefertimon had requested returned to Ophanimon's palace had been found – a sparkling diamond in a diamond shape that now belonged to Bridgit. Our heroes continued through the forest at hand until they approached a fairly large pond just as Bridgit finished explaining all about what she understood to be the situation with the digimon. There was no seeable way across the pond except to walk around the other side, and most of them were quite tired.

"Oh, let's take a break!" suggested John, while his sister pulled off her sandals and sat on the edge of the pond, splashing her feet in the water. Bunimon also was at the water, cleaning her paws which had become very muddy from all of the walking.

"We definitely have earned it," Bridgit agreed, "although we should keep an eye out for danger. You never know where an opponent might be hiding."

"Oh, come on, Bridgit!" Bobby called as he pulled a small net from the picnic basket (yes, he carried it all that way) and waded into the water, obviously trying to sample the local aquatic wildlife. "Be a little less cautious for once!"

Butterstarmon followed Bobby to the pond and asked, "What are you doing, Bobby?"

"I'm seeing if there are any aquatic bugs around to study around here. Are there any creatures in this world other than the digimon?"

"Nope. It's just us digimon here – well, other than you humans of course."

Rhenna stared at a fallen log that sat next to the water. Tan walked over to her and asked, "What's the matter, Rhen? Why are you staring at this log?"

"I was just thinking," she replied, "that if we could carve it somehow, it might make a decent boat – you know, to get across this pond and maybe explore the other side."

John sat down a few feet away from his sister and fell asleep, leaning against the fallen log that Rhenna had been staring at. Canismon walked up and sat down next to his partner, muttering, "So much for Bridgit's warnin'."

Bridgit also sat down by the pond. As she was looking at the water, thinking about what had happened earlier, her diamond began to glow a soft white. As if things couldn't get any stranger still, she saw something in the water. In fact, she was looking at what was happening somewhere else. The scene was of a large, black demon-like creature telling orders to two other creatures. They looked sort of like crosses between dragonflies and wasps, and they could have possibly been twins except for the fact that one was a golden-brown and the other was sort of a silvery gray. The two creatures then nodded and turned around. Then, the two of them headed off in one direction, and then Bridgit realized something.

She pulled away from the vision, and stood up. "Everyone," she announced, "we have to get away from here. There are a couple of evil digimon headed our way! We have to move!"

Everyone began staring at her, except for Tan, who walked up to her and said in her face, "And how would you know that?"

She answered in the only way she could. "I'm not sure – I think it was this diamond. You would know all about that type of thing, wouldn't you, goggle-head? Either way, I saw two evil digimon, they're coming, and we have to either get away or risk a fight."

Tan retaliated, "Well, if that's true, why didn't I see that coming, huh?"

Raptomon flew between the arguing humans and replied to his partner's words, "Don't you think that the powers that you two have might be at least slightly different? You have fire, she has something else. And who knows? Miss Rhenna will probably end up being able to…"

"Um, everyone?" Jennie interrupted, looking behind her and seeing something. "I think Bridgit was serious!"

Two digimon were flying through the forest right for our heroes. Both of them had the body of a dragonfly and the stinger of a wasp, although one of them was a golden-brown color –

Yanmamon

Level: Champion

Attacks: Thunder Ray, Insect Ohm

- and the other was sort of a silvery-gray color.

SandYanmamon

Level: Champion

Attacks: Desert Storm, Flying Break

"Now do you believe me?" Bridgit asked Tan stared in shock.

John, who had woken up when Bridgit made her announcement, shouted, "Everyone, stand your ground! Let's see how powerful these things really are!"

"Raptomon, digivolve to Goyledramon!" (I only put the special digivolution brackets when they are digivolving to that level for the first time.)

"Pyro Tsunami!"

"Golden Horn!"

"Lightning Storm!"

"Razor Wing!"

"Star Storm!"

All of the attacks were aimed squarely at the opponents, but at the last second, both of them dodged every single attack!

"Let's see if I can tie them up," Bunimon shouted. "Pink Ribbon!"

The ribbon shot toward the opponents and wrapped tight, harming both insects.

"So, your ribbons can heal allies, create a shield, and harm opponents! That's useful stuff," Jennie observed.

Both Yanmamon and SandYanmamon laughed, however, and said, "Is that the best you've got?" They then broke free of the ribbons, sending little pink sparkles in random directions.

SandYanmamon twirled around and cried, "Desert Storm!" causing a large sand storm which blinded the children. Then, Yanmamon flew close to Bunimon and shouted "Thunder Ray!" which shot a large thunderbolt from its tail aimed straight for the little rabbit. It hit squarely before Bunimon could react, and she screamed in pain.

Butterstarmon cried, "I'll clear the storm. Whirling Wind!" The tornado did clear the storm, but revealed something shocking.

Bunimon lay on the ground struggling to stay alive. Jennie ran over to her and picked her up, saying, "Bunimon, what's wrong?"

Bunimon struggled to open her eyes and whispered, "I… I'm sorry, Jennie. I couldn't dodge that attack…" She then evaporated into little bits of data, although no fractal code or egg was visible.

"BUNIMON!" Jennie cried, and then started crying.

John walked forward, towards the two insectoid opponents, and stated simply, "You will pay for that." He then screamed and ran forward, until Bridgit put her arm in front of him.

"Allow me," she said, tears forming on her eyes as well. Her diamond began to glow a bright white in her hand, and Spikecornmon glowed the same color where she stood.

D I G I V O L U T I O N

"Spikecornmon, digivolve to…" the little unicorn cried as she grew about twice her size and lost most of her spikes from her body, which instead got absorbed into her long, flowing tail. Her horn grew about twice as long as it had been originally, new growths protruded from her back, and her mane became almost of silver… "Pegacornmon!"

E N D D I G I V O L U T I O N

Where the little unicorn once stood was now a beautiful white unicorn with a long, golden horn, a flowing silver mane, and a beautiful tail of gold as well. She stood about as tall as the average horse, but nothing else was average about this stunning mythical beast, especially when you considered the wondrous fairy-like wings that doubled her height when they were straight up in the air.

Pegacornmon

Level: Champion

Attacks: Fan Tail Strike, Rainbow Horn

Even Bridgit was in awe of this magnificent creature, which walked over to her and said, "Let's do this, for Bunimon's sake."

"Right," Bridgit nodded. Pegacornmon beckoned her partner onto her back, so Bridgit climbed on. As soon as her partner was comfortable, the flying unicorn took off and flew straight toward the twin insectoid digimon. Pegacornmon's tail spread out into a fan of little hairs and started to twirl until it was like a fan blade, its movement almost invisible. She flew closer and closer to the evil digimon and shouted, "Fan Tail Strike!" as the hairs struck both creatures and caused them to scream.

As soon as the unicorn passed, the evil digimon nodded to each other. Yanmamon shouted "Insect Ohm!" and a myriad of tiny insect-like creatures buzzed towards Pegacornmon and Bridgit.

"I thought you said it was just the digimon here," Bobby whispered to Butterstarmon.

"Those are digimon. If you look really closely, you can see that they are tiny clones of Yanmamon."

SandYanmamon shouted "Flying Break!" as it flapped its wings as quickly as it could, creating a sonic boom effect.

Both attacks hurled towards Pegacornmon, but her tail was still waving in its fan pattern. So, anything that hit it was chopped to pieces by the blade.

"You ready to finish them off, Bridgit?" the unicorn asked, and Bridgit nodded. The diamond began to glow a bright white color, and Pegacornmon's horn began to glow in all the colors of the rainbow.

Bridgit let loose her attack first, as a beam of light shot forth from the diamond itself aimed directly for the insects.

Pegacornmon shouted "Rainbow Horn!" as a rainbow colored beam shot from her horn, aimed at the same place. The two attacks intertwined, doubling each one's power, and they hit squarely.

Both Yanmamon and SandYanmamon turned into rings of fractal code twirling around their black forms. Pegacornmon landed and Bridgit jumped off, holding out her D-PA. Saying, "This one's for Bunimon," she absorbed the data into the little device and ended this insect menace once and for all.

As both Goyledramon and Pegacornmon dedigivolved, two crystals materialized out of thin air where the creatures had been standing – a deep blue sapphire in the shape of a water drop, and a bright yellow topaz in the shape of a star. The sapphire floated over to Jennie, who was still sobbing, and the topaz floated over to John, who had his hand on his sister's shoulder.

"Bunimon…" Jennie sobbed. As soon as the sapphire landed on her lap, however, it glowed very slightly. Next to her, little data bits gathered together, and a sleeping Bunimon materialized right next to her partner.

John saw, and said, "Jennie, look." She looked up at him, and he pointed to her other side.

Jennie picked up Bunimon, who woke up and smiled. "Why are you crying?" the little rabbit asked innocently. "Us digimon always come back sooner or later."

Bridgit stood watching and thought, 'I guess, at least when it comes to our digimon partners, we can get them back easily if they're killed, just by tapping into the powers of these crystals. These things really are more than meets the eye.'

Jennie hugged Bunimon happily, and John looked happily towards his own partner. Everyone else smiled as well. (Yes, even Tan, although he turned away before anyone had the chance to get to look.)

Dewmon waited a few more seconds, and then said, "How about we look for those other crystals?"

Rhenna suggested, "Let's look on the other side of that pond. Of course, we'd need a boat…"

Bridgit heard the suggestion and looked at the fallen log, which if carved correctly would render a small boat big enough for everyone.

A few minutes later, the log was carved and the boat, carrying everyone, was approximately halfway across the pond. "That was a great idea, Bridgit, to use your laser to carve the log," John said.

"I could have done it," Tan mumbled in an annoyed tone, but didn't say anything else as Rhenna put her hand on his shoulder as if to say, 'It's okay. You can't do everything.'

Who is the demon-like creature that Bridgit saw in her vision? What powers will the twins' crystals have in store? And where are the other two crystals that need to be found? Find out next chapter!

Author's Note: I'm going to try and edit less for now. Thanks for reviewing again, neoKOS-MOS, and the descriptions of the digimon will get better. Of course, you might find that I have a slight… tendency to describe anything having to do with the goggleboy less… but anyway, the next one is a two parter, so I'll put those two chapters up… eventually. Hopefully sooner than later… Anyway, please review nicely.
