Spirit Jerebis: Zealon Feranin 1: Return of the Islamic Nation

Episode 3: "Entry into Crescent Gang"

Previously on Return of the Islamic Nation: Ken and Osamu in the Dark Ocean, the rest of the DigiDestined in the Digi-World. Back to A.J. and his dimension. No more for the DigiDestined here. On with the conclusion.


FIVE YEARS LATER...

A.J., aged 15, rushed into his bedroom. He had Zomo on and Muchiya around his right wrist. The special crescent, Sentinel bag was around his back. Tosha was there.

"O.K. Mom. My first day of school... Third school year." A.J. smiled.

"Crescent School?" Tosha asked, turning around.

"Yeah and Helen is going to be there all year." A.J. cheered.

"What's the matter with you and that girl anyway?" Tosha asked.

A.J. sighed, "Mom, I'm 15. It's possible that I'm in love her. I promised I would tell her, when we got to spend the third year together as members."

"Like last year. Helen fought with someone; you looked away for a moment or two and started laughing? Next day, her mom came with her and scolded you all?" Tosha asked.

"I've regretted laughing and not doing anything." A.J. replied.

"Yeah. You were afraid of people or students finding out of your crush on her. Jereiph Scorpion knew though." Tosha reminded.

"I swear I'm going to get back at him this year, feranin to feranin." A.J. growled.

"You want to celebrate?" Tosha asked.

A.J. turned away.

'Helen has been with Carl for the last two years. Maybe longer. I've got to think of something for her to give me a chance.' He thought.

A.J. sighed; he turned back to Tosha. He shook his head and left.


Stan stopped his bike in his family's driveway. He sighed getting off. He was going to ring the doorbell but someone opened the door for him.

"Simon?" Stan asked.

Simon nodded.

"Aimer bro!" Stan greeted, smiling.

"Aimer Sig!" Simon yelled.

Simon jumped into his older brother's arms. Tom: Stan's father, appeared.

"Who are you?" Tom asked.

Just then, Ann appeared to see what was going on. She recognized Stan right away and remembered him.

"Don't you remember your own son?" Ann asked.

Tom blinked, "What?! Stan?"

Stan smiled, "Yep dad! It's me Stan."

"Come on in then Stan!" Tom welcomed.

Stan entered the house carrying Simon. He went right into the guest room. Simon took his seat beside his older brother on the couch, with his brother's help.

"Where have you been?" Tom asked.

"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you." Stan replied.

"Try us." Ann urged.

Stan sighed, "Alright. I've been in the..."

"Aren't you tired from your long stay there?" Ann asked, interrupting.

"Yeah. I've missed you all." Stan nodded.

"Your room is with Simon. You'll share it with him." Tom explained.

Stan nodded.

"Why don't you show it to him? Sorry son, we had dinner. We didn't know you were coming." Ann apologized.

"That's O.K." Stan shrugged, following his brother.

Simon took the lead to the kid's bedroom. One they reached the room, Stan went up into the upper bunk bed. Simon was about to ask Stan a question, but Stan went straight to sleep; he was extremely tired.


Time passed as morning came. In no time, Stan and Simon went to Crescent School in Beverly Hills. They took the school's bus, that's Simon and Stan were registered on.


The bus' driver, Harold Jones was in a sober mood. Stan thanked him, leaving the bus once at school. Harold Jones didn't even look at Stan.

"What's his problem?" Stan whispered.

Simon shrugged. They knew where to go. A.J. noticed them, his eyes flared. He marched straight towards him. Jereiph Scorpion got to Stan and Simon first. The spark of rivalry flared in A.J. Jereiph stood in Simon's way. Simon was in the lead as Stan was behind him.

"Sig? He's bad news." Stan whispered.

"I've noticed." Simon whispered.

Stan saw A.J. then. A memory flashed.


"ZONEMON CREVOLVE..."
"... CENTERMON!"

"GREEMON CREVOLVE..."
"... GRASLMON!"

Stan was back in the 5th Oasis, in the Digi-World, with A.J. and his copedam. A flare was in A.J.'s eyes, one that Stan knew he would always recognize and remember.

"You think you can invade wherever you like you fucker?" Stan asked.

"Name's A.J. Actonal. What's yours?" A.J. asked.

"Stan Otomy." Stan growled.

Centermon jumped towards Graslmon, but Graslmon leapt into the air, avoiding it. Stan quickly raised his arm, blocking A.J.'s kick. Stan jumped back.

"Not bad." A.J. nodded.

"You're not bad yourself." Stan agreed.

"Defender's Rage!" Graslmon yelled.

"Atom Center!" Centermon yelled.

The two attacks collided, exploding. An energy beam hit the ground, exploding like a nuclear bomb. It sent the four flying in opposite directions. Centermon decrevolved back to Zonemon; Graslmon decrevolved back to Greemon.


"Hey! Isn't that?" Watermon asked, from the bushes.

"It seems so. Stan Otomy. Ann and Tom's kid." Steve replied, whispering.

"He's back from the Digi-World." Watermon whispered.

"To enter..." Jereiph started.

"Put your stupid comments out of your fists and shove them in your ass!" Stan growled, interrupting.

Stan sensed danger from Jereiph, he was fearful of Simon getting hurt. No use. Jereiph elbowed Simon in his left cheek, swiftly, sending him collapsing in pain on the grass. Simon couldn't help but cry.

"Simon!" Stan whispered.

He leaped towards Jereiph, but Ryan and Peter held him back.

'It's time. Stan might be my enemy; I know his strength is equal to mine. It's time the two of us forgave one another.' A.J. thought.

"Face him like a man, you son of a bitch!" A.J. growled.

Jereiph turned to him.

"If it isn't the one who loves Helen." He mocked.

A.J. looked around him quickly. They were all there. Carl was with Helen, the two heard what Jereiph said to A.J. Kevin; Alan; Brian; Samantha; Mark; Fred and Amanda also heard.

"That's none of your concern." A.J. growled.

Jereiph laughed. A.J. charged. The next thing A.J. knew was that he was sent flying back, fast. He went through the school wall.

"Twinkle Field." A.J. whispered.

He went unconscious. The wall collapsed on him, burying him alive.

"A.J.!" Kevin; Helen and Amanda all yelled.


The entire group looked upwards, towards the sky. They gasped, seeing someone on the roof. The person jumped all the way to the ground.

"Nasser Actonal. Don't worry about A.J.; he'll be fine." Nasser greeted.

"Don't you think of trying that again!" Jereiph warned.

"Trying what again? You mean what you did to A.J.? You did it?" Nasser growled.

Nasser had that flare in his eyes, after all it was A.J. Stan noticed it and remembered it from the 5th Oasis.

"It wasn't your fault. I forgive you." Stan commented.

Ryan and Peter double punched him in the stomach. Jeramel blocked Nasser's way.

"If you want to get to the boss, you'll have to face me." Jeramel grinned.

'Neither was it yours. I forgive you as well friend.' Nasser thought.

"It would never be an honor, for you to be the first I fight." Nasser chuckled.

"How about two?" Harold asked.

He was side by side with Jeramel. Nasser shrugged.

"The more, the better." Nasser sighed.

"You lousy bastard! Face him like a man! Don't hide behind your men like a wall..." Stan growled.

Jereiph hissed. He rapidly turned around and sent a flying punch to Stan's chin. The impact sent Stan backwards out of Ryan and Peter's arms. His back collided into a tree as he went unconscious.

"Stan!" Simon and Samantha yelled, both rushing towards him.


Nasser sensed Stan's true personality, in physical form. A person on the top of the tree, which Stan was knocked out from, knew of Nasser's knowledge. He swiftly leapt to the ground in front of the unconscious Stan; Samantha and Simon.

"There will never be a day when I'm happier to beat someone up." The person grinned.

Jereiph growled. Simon sobbed. Samantha stood up.

"Who are you?" She asked.

"Kathif Otomy. Don't worry about Stan; he'll be fine." Kathif replied.

Nasser grinned. He charged towards Harold and Jeramel while they weren't looking. The two turned their heads to see what Nasser was doing, it was too late for them to counter; block or avoid. Nasser moved in between the two with ease, during a moment Nasser elbowed the two of them back in their necks, knocking them to the ground.

"Ryan... Peter... It's your turn by me." Kathif grinned.

"Don't you dare touch him!" Helen and Alan yelled together.

"Or what?!" Kathif growled, turning to them.

Helen backed down. Alan stood firm. Nasser sweat-dropped.

"Or you'll be facing me." Alan replied.

"Are you joking?" Kathif asked.

"Dead serious." Alan replied.

Kathif glanced at Nasser. Nasser nodded to him. Kathif sweat-dropped, understanding.

"You're going to get it then." He hissed.

Nasser quickly interfered as he blocked Kathif's kick. Alan was shaken. Nasser shook his head firmly.

"Deal with Ryan and Peter. I'll deal with Jereiph." Nasser urged.

Kathif sighed, nodding. He rushed over to Ryan and Peter. He punched them both in their stomachs as they knelt forwards. Kathif spun backwards, kicking Peter and Ryan in their chins. The two fell backwards on the grass; it wasn't painful. Kathif was easy on both Ryan and Peter. For the fresh respect towards Nasser and not wanting to have Helen and Alan against him. Kathif couldn't say the same for Nasser.

Jereiph got the beating that was always coming to him. Nasser was hard and rough, he gave tremendous pain to Jereiph. Nasser threw Jereiph into the air with a low punch to the chin. While in the air, Nasser hopped back standing on his arms. Jereiph came down but Nasser was ready for him, with his arms Nasser leapt into the air kicking Jereiph back into the sky. Nasser didn't stop as he flipped straight, going higher into the sky, catching up with Jereiph.

Jereiph was spinning and flipping in the sky at once. Nasser spun his body with his right arm out. His arm made contact with Jereiph's skull in the back. Jereiph fell to the ground on his stomach barely conscious. Nasser and Kathif were both surprised that Jereiph survived all that. They both started to get suspicious on Jereiph. Sensing the principle, who was also the owner, and the employees of the school coming towards the sight.

The two nodded to each other and leapt in different directions, disappearing.


Helen and Alan went to check on Ryan who was shaking his head. Carl was with them, making sure Ryan was O.K.. Lance Latsiwt: principle and owner of Crescent School, came out to see the Scorpion Gang knocked out. He was amazed and completely clueless. Jeff Germ: the janitor of the school, checked up on Jereiph.

"You stupid kid! You got it coming and serves you right." Jeff nodded.

Trish Chatica checked up on Ryan and ignored Peter.

"You O.K. kid? That's what you'll get for becoming a member of such a gang." Trish shook her head.

Carl rolled his eyes, while Helen and Alan just stared at her, sweat-dropped. Tiffany went over to check on Stan. Stan was completely aware of what happened. He kept silent though.

"That's a strong beating you took." Tiffany commented.

"Hey!" Samantha complained, being pushed back by Tiffany.

"He's my older brother." Simon commented.

"That's nice." Tiffany smiled.

Kim and Laura were near the hole and rubble of the wall.

"Hey! Is anyone under that?" Kim asked, turning back.

"A.J. is!" Helen replied, standing up.

"What?!" Laura yelled.

"It can't be." Kim gasped.

"You two think anyone survived?" Amber asked.

"Not under such rubble." Laura gasped.


Lance stood at the center of the site. He got everyone's attention.

"Internal investigation is going to start of this incident. School is continuing on as normal though." Lance announced.

Moans and complains were heard. They were silenced by the rubble moving. A rock was pushed aside as an arm appeared. It stretched out and grabbed a side of the top of the rubble. A.J. pushed himself out, building rocks being pushed aside. A.J. stood up. A loud applause was heard with some joyous sobbing. Jereiph saw it all and slammed his fist into the grass. A.J. smiled. Helen was going to rush to him excited but two things stopped her. Carl and Amanda.

Carl held her back, shaking his head. Amanda rushed towards A.J. immediately embracing him. Jereiph stood to his feet. He pointed towards the two.

"I don't know how you survived but this isn't over between us." Jereiph hissed, walking away.

'You can bet on that Jereiph Scorpion, this time though I have friends supporting me.' A.J. thought.

Harold; Jeramel; Peter, and Ryan walked away with him.

"Ryan?" Alan asked.

Ryan stopped a moment, but quickly continued on. Stan went over to A.J. with Samantha and Simon. Kevin was hopping around. A.J. was on steady ground, as he was away from the rubble, everyone gathered around him except for Scorpion Gang; Carl and Helen. Stan was able to get side by side with A.J.

"Twinkle Field?" Stan asked, whispering.

A.J. nodded.

"You're lucky." Stan smiled.

"I sure am." A.J. agreed, smiling.
