Digimon 2: House of Horrors Series

Part Eight: The End?

Note: I'm so so so so so so so so so so sorry for rushing the story! I'll try to juice it up later!

"Gazimon nodded and jumped out of Adrian's arms. "Ready partner."

Adrian held his digivice to Gazimon and the little rabbit glowed.

"Gazimon digivolve to…Devimon."

Mimi screamed and jumped back. "Tell me you're joking!"

"It's okay," Devimon told Mimi. "I won't hurt you. Now, get going."

Adrian pulled on Mimi's coat. "Let's go, we have a lot of land to cover."

"Just great!" Mimi pouted, but she took off after Adrian."

"We've been running for an hour already, can we stop?"

"We've only been running for ten minutes," Adrian said. "And we're almost there; his castle is on the horizon!"

"I see it," Mimi said, panting. "But it's too far away! It'll take another hour to get there!"

"Devimon," Adrian said, running backwards. "We need you to get us to the castle!"

"He can't hear you," Mimi said, confused as to why he was screaming. Behind them, Adrian could see Devimon emerging from the forest, fighting off the Vilemon that came through. Mimi stared.

"I stand corrected."

"Evil wing," Devimon said and the Kuwagamon dissipated. Matt shut her eyes, but regretted it as she fell forwards on her face. Adrian stopped and he kneeled down next to her, helping her stand up.

"It isn't going to work out between us," Adrian joked. Mimi looked perplexed.

"I didn't think there ever was," she said, allowing him to help her stand up. "Now then, where is your digimon?"

"Right here," said Devimon as he flew behind them, and then swooped them up, flying quickly to Demon's castle.

"She's doing that thing with her eyes," Kari said, frowning.

"Try to bring her back," TK said, taking a step away from Demon. This was it. This was how it would end. "Katrina's digimon is the only one who's not frozen."

"Well, we need a plan," Izzy said. "This isn't a very good situation we're in right now!"

"Well digidestined," Demon said. "I guess this is the end. I wish it weren't so easy though. Farewell, digidestined."

Izzy moved closer to TK. "Take me."

Demon cackled. "The eldest first, I see. Well then, I'll make sure to end this quickly."

Demon's arm turned into a sharp blade. He took a step closer to Izzy and brought his arm back. Izzy shut his eyes tight, but opened them when he felt nothing. Demon was distracted by something behind him. Izzy looked over his shoulder. Adrian and Mimi were standing there, Devimon behind them.

"Missed me?" Adrian asked Demon. Demon growled.

"You and that traitor," Demon said. "I guess I'll finish off you first."

"Be my guest," Adrian said, taking a step aside. Devimon stepped forward. Izzy held onto TK's shirt collar to keep him from lashing out. Devimon turned to look at Adrian.

"Demon's an ultimate; could I go ultimate?"

Adrian nodded as he jerked his crest off of his belt loop. It glowed tan as he held it up to his digimon. Devimon glowed.

"Devimon digivolve to-!"

The champion level digimon grew slightly bigger, but he remained the same.

"IceDevimon."

"Go get him," Adrian said as he ran to Katrina.

"Free the other digimon," IceDevimon ordered. Demon laughed. "It's a shame; you made such a cute pet. Well, this fight will be dull. How about I free the digimon and you guys fight me?"

Demon snapped his fingers, and four statues appeared from the ceiling. The stone melted as the statues neared the ground, and soon three rookie digimon and a champion landed on their feet.

"Gatomon!" Kari called as her cat ran to her, tail ring trailing behind her.

"Tentomon!" Izzy said as his red bug digimon flew to him.

"Alright, Patamon!" TK said.

"Palmon!" Mimi said, watching Adrian as he talked to Katrina.

"You have to help IceDevimon," Kari said. "Digivolve to champion!"

Three digivices glowed as three digimon were surrounded in light.

"Patamon digivolve to…"

"Tentomon digivolve to…"

"Palmon digivolve to…"

"Gatomon?" Kari asked. Gatomon shook her head. "I can't, remember?"

"Oh yeah," Kari said, lowering her digivice.

"Angemon!"

"Kabuterimon!"

"Togemon!"

"Go get them," TK, Izzy, and Mimi exclaimed.

"Super shocker!"

Demon jumped away. "Is that it?"

"Without our ultimate digimon, we're useless," Izzy said.

"What can we do?" TK snapped. "Without our crests or Azulongmon's power they can't digivolve."

"I know," Izzy said, his hand on his chin, thinking. "But, there has to be some way…"

"Zero freeze," IceDevimon shouted. A wave of ice shot at Demon. The digimon jumped back in surprise, knocking over BlackGatomon's cage. When it hit the ground, it opened up and the virus digimon ran out. By then, Katrina had woken up, and she was embracing Adrian. Adrian looked at her.

"Ready to kick some butt?"

Katrina nodded. She turned to BlackGatomon.

"You ready?"

BlackGatomon nodded as she glowed lavender. Everyone, even Demon, paused to look at her.

"I wonder what she's going to digivolve into," TK said. "ShadowAngeWomon?"

"We'll see," Izzy said.

"BlackGatomon digivolve to…"

"You fools," Demon said. "My servant is returning to me!"

"You're the fool," Katrina said, holding up her shaking digivice. "This is the end for you. Give up."

"I won't."

"Then prepare to meet your match," Katrina said, spinning around. Her digimon stretched into the size of a woman and the light faded down. Everyone gasped, Kari's face paled.

"BlackGatomon digivolve to…LadyDevimon."

"What is this?" TK shouted. "Return of the enemies? Who are you people?"

"Wait," Izzy said. "That LadyDevimon is…grey. She's the servant of Demon. She's the one I've been seeing in my dreams."

Katrina spun around to look at Izzy. "You're the one having the dreams? I thought Matt was!"

Katrina turned to look at Adrian. "This changes everything."

"Darkness Wave," LadyDevimon called. A wave of dark bats struck Demon. He laughed.

"You think this is enough to beat me?"

"Get him," Katrina said, holding her crest out. Lavender light shot out at LadyDevimon, and LadyDevimon was clutching a spear made of lavender light.

"This is the end for you," LadyDevimon said, her voice was just a smooth and soft as AngeWomon's.

"I'll come back," he said. "You know I will!"

"Darkness Javelin!"

LadyDevimon tossed the spear at Demon and he caught it in his crest.

"Damn you!" he shouted as he started to dissipate. "I'll come back, just wait!"

"We'll be waiting," Katrina said, coolly. "And I'll be waiting to send you back to hell."

Demon's last curse faded away as he vanished. Katrina grinned and turned to the others.

"That's the end," TK said as the other digimon de-digivolved. Patamon fluttered to TK.

"Yah!"

"Look, no scratches," Tentomon said, showing off to Izzy.

"I'm sad I didn't get to help," Gatomon said. Kari hugged her.

"It's okay."

"Mimi! Mimi!" Palmon cried. Mimi hugged her.

"You did great!"

IceDevimon de-digivolved down to Pagumon, Gazimon's in training form. Adrian picked him up. "Great buddy, now let's go home."

"Not just yet," LadyDevimon said. Katrina looked up.

"You did your work. Now, let's go home."

"The Dark Lord is gone," LadyDevimon said, smirking. "It's my turn to have fun now."

"Oh damn," Katrina whispered. "Let's go!"

"Stupid girl," LadyDevimon rebelled. "I'm in control now."

"What's with her?" Kari asked, standing next to Katrina.

"She's rebelling," Katrina said. "We have to stop her!"

"But," TK said. "We can't do anything against an ultimate! And Pagumon's too tired to fight!"

Katrina turned to Kari. "No, Kari has to fight her."

"Why Kari?" Izzy asked, running to them.

"Because," Adrian explained. "Kari's a goddess."

To be continued…

Glimpse: Yes people, it's finally the end of book two. In book three (possibly the final book) the 'goddess' question on everyone's mind will finally be answered. When LadyDevimon goes rebellious, Katrina refuses to help out the others in their last battle: the Prophecy. But, when Katrina accidentally reads it wrong it could cost either Katrina of Kari their life. And, what is Mimi Tachikawa's relation to Katrina Tenaiko? Stay tuned for Digimon 3: Lost Prophecy!
