Digimon Season 2.5 "Digimon Adventure 03"
Episode 20: "The Fairy of Light"
.:Net Ocean, Digital World:.
"What're you doing here?" Dawn jumped up off the ladder and onto the roof, closely followed by Dan.
The Undead King simply smiled remaining still. "You thought you'd left me for dead back in Star City didn't you? A nice surprise huh?" he chuckled. "It'll take more than a little brat and her pet dinosaur to defeat me."
Dawn growled in anger, gritting her teeth and clenching her fists tightly.
"How did you find us?" Dan gawped as he stood behind his best friend.
A small chuckle escaped the Undead King's lips. "When you flea in something that can be seen from outta space it's not that hard to track you down boy." He spoke a little sarcastically.
Dawn clenched her fists harder. "Alright sarcastic! You want another fight, you're gonna get it!" she pulled her goggles up over her face and placed them on her forehead.
"I wouldn't get so eager if I were you." The Undead King formed a red stream of energy that resembled a whip. "Our last meetings may have gone your way. I went easy on you. But now I will give you just s sample of my true power." He leaped into the air and brought the energy stream back before thrusting it at the two children.
"Look out!" Dawn exclaimed as she and Dan both jumped if different directions barely missing the attack that struck the roof of Blimpmon. It left a scorched hole in his metal.
The Undead King landed back onto the roof. "My attack is scolding hot. Just one small touch would give you excruciating pain." He retracted his whip and formed two large spheres of energy in his hands. With two quick movements he threw one to the left and one to the right.
Dawn threw herself to the floor, cringing slightly as she landed on her front, her bruised ribs not fully healed from her fight with Datamon. She felt the force from the blast as the attack struck the roof.
Dan jumped to the right, clearly avoiding the attack meant for him which flew through the air before falling into the ocean below. "You know, you need to work on your aim." He commented.
The Undead King growled. "I've had enough of your cheeky attitude goggle boy." In a split second he created a smaller energy ball and bowled it forward towards the Motomiya boy. The small attack struck just inches away from his feet.
Dan stumbled back a few steps but got a little too close to the edge. "W-whoa...." he waved his arms frantically trying to regain his balance as he felt the back of his heel go over the edge of Blimpmon. He glanced over his shoulder to see nothing but ocean below...
"Dan!" Dawn scrambled to her feet and ran over. She grabbed her best friend's hand and pulled him back to safety. "That was close."
The Undead King laughed quietly. "Are my attacks a little too quick for you? And that is just a sample of my power. You two brats would be dead before you hit the ground if I used my strongest attack."
"You're bluffing!" Dawn shouted, her eyes narrowing.
A chuckle escaped the Undead King's lips. "I assure you child I am not bluffing."
"I thought you were going to let me have a little fun with the tykes?"
Dawn and Dan both looked up at the sound of a new voice. Above them, draped over a higher part of Blimpmon, was a tall female Digimon.
She stood up and her appearance was illuminated in the moonlight. She had the figure of a slim woman, wearing a red outfit with a black belt, and her huge black cape blew in the strong breeze. A large rose head with green leaves covered the top part of her head and thick yellow vines were wrapped around her neck, arms and legs.
The Undead King looked up and smiled. "Of course, Rosemon X. I never go back on my word." He took a step back towards the edge of Blimpmon. "
"You really are a coward!" Dan exclaimed angrily. "You can't even stay and fight us!"
"Believe me, I would love to stay and eliminate you two myself but I have unfinished business to attend to."
Rosemon X smiled and placed her right hand on her hip. "Do not worry. I'll be sure to take good care of these two."
The Undead King smiled glancing at his henchwomen. "I know I can always rely on you Rosemon X." He then leaped up into the air and seemingly vanished from sight, his laughter echoing across the vast ocean....
Rosemon X elegantly jumped down from her position and landed on Blimpmon's roof. She chuckled under her breath and began to walk across to the children. "Hello darlings." She spoke mockingly. "I must say I'm going to enjoy tearing you two cuties apart."
Dawn clenched her right fist, raising it a little. "Just you try it!" she taunted angrily.
Rosemon X giggled a little spitefully. "A feisty little thing aren't we?" she taunted. The two friends backed up as she grew closer and she giggled again. "There's no need to be afraid of little old me. I'm not going to hurt you that much. I'll be sure to make it fast and almost painless."
"We're not scared." Dawn retorted her fists still clenched tightly. Her and Dan were still backing up, but were starting to move in different directions.
Rosemon X continued to move in on them. "Just stay still, and you won't hardly feel a thing...." She lifted her right hand up. "Thorn Shoot!" She shot out sharp thorns from her palm.
"Ahh!" both Dawn and Dan threw themselves to the ground, barely missing the attack. The thorns blasted into Blimpmon and there was a low rumble as the huge Digimon growled in pain.....
The whole of Blimpmon shuddered roughly and Agumon's eyes suddenly sprung open. The little rookie Digimon sat up straight and looked around. "Hey did you guys hear that?!" he exclaimed jumping to his feet.
The others slowly began to stir and wake up. MJ slowly sat up rubbing her eyes. She picked up her yellow digivice that lay beside her and pressed the top button that lit up the screen. "Agumon its 1am."
Suddenly there was another explosion and Blimpmon shook from side to side.
Margaret bolted up straight. "W-what was that?" she asked.
"Wait." Veemon spoke up looking around. "Where are Dan and Dawn?"
Patamon felt a strong breeze from behind him. He hovered in the air and turned his attention to the other side of the room. "Hey look the emergency hatch is open."
"What?" all the children and Digimon were now on their feet. MJ picked up her digivice and clipped it on her belt before placing her hat on her head. "You don't think they've....."
Agumon sprinted across the room and stepped out onto the ledge. He peered down at the ocean below. But then suddenly there was a familiar cry from above. "Dawn!" he leapt out and scrambled up the metal ladder as fast as he could.
"Hey wait for me!" Veemon shouted following the overgrown lizard closely.
Up on the roof Dawn and Dan backed away from Rosemon X who proceeded towards them. She held one of her vine whips in her right hand loosely and let it blow in the slight breeze. She grinned as she paused about hundred yards away from the two children.
"You don't scare us!" Dawn exclaimed tightening her fists.
Rosemon X giggled. "Is that so? Then why are you backing into the corner like a couple of cowardly mice?" she questioned. "Let's just get this over with." She raised her whip high into the air and two DigiDestined flinched....
"Dawn!" "Dan!"
Both turned their heads to the sound of their names being called. "Agumon!" "Veemon!" the two children grinned in unison.
Rosemon X averted her gaze to the two rookie Digimon who had arrived on the roof. "Two more darlings to contend with huh?"
Veemon gawped and took a step back. "That's Rosemon X, a mega Digimon!"
Agumon growled showing his claws. "What's going on here? What do you want?"
Dawn glanced at her Digimon partner before turning to glare at Rosemon X. "Agumon just kick her butt off this airship!"
"Right." Agumon stormed forward as Dawn reached down for her digivice.
"Not so fast." Rosemon X smirked devilishly. "Ivy Hug!" One of her whips became hard and sharp and she drilled it into the top of Blimpmon. His whole body shuddered before many smaller vines sprouted out from his roof and wrapped themselves around Dawn, Dan, Agumon and Veemon.
Dawn cringed as the vines tightened themselves around her body, trapping her arms. She struggled as she tried to reach her digivice that was clipped on her green belt. But her fingers wouldn't stretch far enough. "A-argh... Agumon you h-have to d-d-digivolve..." she stammered.
Agumon closed his eyes as his body was squeezed tightly. "I c-can't unless you release the d-digital ri-ng...."
The Kamiya girl closed her eyes tightly and tried as hard as she could to stretch her fingers but all she could manage was to brush her fingertips over the top of the digivice.
.:Thunder Mountain, File Island, Digital World:.
The huge metal doors swung open and the Undead King strode in and marched down the long dark main hallway. As he made his way up to his private room his servants and henchmen all froze and backed up against the wall allowing him to pass freely.
In his room, two Hagurumon X were floating in front of four large computer screens. One screen displayed a huge map of the entire Digital World while the other three showed different places.
"Whoa... reports have come in saying the Ice Palace has been destroyed and there is no sign of IceDevimon." One Hagurumon X spoke breaking the silence.
"What?!" the other exclaimed.
The first Hagurumon X pressed a few buttons on the keyboard in front of him and an image of the Freezeland appeared on the bottom left screen. Where the Ice Palace once stood was now a pile of broken ice.
"Re-wind that tape from that area." The second Hagurumon X demanded.
The other Hagurumon X re-wound the tape a few hours before playing it back. Images played on the screen of Tai, Sora, Stacey and the Digimon fleeing the palace before it suddenly exploded before them. The two Hagurumon X continued to watch and Tai picked up Koromon and turned to the others.
"It's nice to have you back Garurumon." Koromon's voice played over the speakers.
The two Hagurumon X then noticed Garurumon in the bottom right of the screen as Stacey wrapped her arms around his neck hugging him.
"The boss is not gonna like this...."
Then as if on cue the door flew open, startling the two, and the Undead King entered. "Any word on Garurumon X?" he spoke as he walked across the room.
Hagurumon X quickly knocked off the image from the Freezeland and both of them turned to face their leader completely silent.
The Undead King casually walked over to the small window and gazed out over the vast deserted land. "I'm surprised he hasn't reported back yet. I thought he would have disposed of that traitor by now."
"Uhhh Boss-"
"I left Rosemon X in charge of those other brats." He cut in. "If I know Rosemon X those children will be shark bait by now." He chuckled to himself. He turned around to face his henchmen. "So, has there been no word on Garurumon X?"
The two rookies glanced at each other afraid to speak. The Undead King took their silence as a no.
"Well get in contact with him. I want to know his location." The Undead King began to walk across the room towards the door. "He's one of the best trackers I've got. He should have caught up with that girl by now.
"Boss... I'm afraid that's not possible...." one of the Hagurumon X spoke up, his voice a little shaky.
The Undead King stopped in his tracks. "What?" he slowly turned back around to face the two. "Are you refusing orders?"
"N-no!" the other rookie replied. "I-It's just we can't get in contact with him. It's not possible anymore."
The Undead King slowly walked towards them. "And why not?" he said threateningly.
Hagurumon X gulped and slowly turned around and turned the bottom left screen back on. The screen lit up and the image of the group in front of the Ice Palace appeared. The video started playing and Koromon's voice was heard once more.
"It's glad to have you back Garurumon."
Hagurumon X paused it and neither two of them turned to face their master who was stood right behind them. They could feel his glare.
The Undead King growled and shoved in between them and began typing away on the keyboard. His eyes narrowed and he gritted his teeth as he scanned the entire Digital World for any trace of Garurumon X's signal. The results came up blank and that's when he noticed the crest hanging around Stacey's neck.
He stood up straight, his fists clenched. The two Hagurumon X remained silent behind him. "Go and gather the new herd of Digimon that was captured this morning. These two aren't getting away that easy." He turned around to see the two rookies hadn't moved. "Do you two want to end up the same fate as your former boss Machinedramon? MOVE!"
The two Hagurumon X jumped and scrambled for the door, bumping into each other a few times.
"And to think I wasted an X antibody upgrade on them." The Undead King muttered under his breath as he continued to glare at the image of Stacey and Garurumon.
.:Net Ocean, Digital World:.
"It's too quiet up there. I can't hear a thing." Margaret spoke, gulping back a lump in her throat as she gazed up at the top of Blimpmon. She glanced back at her best friend. "They should have been back down by now."
"You know what Dawn and Dan are like. This is probably one of their practical jokes." MJ replied, before she turned to walk back in when Margaret stepped out onto the ledge and climbed onto the ladder.
"Margaret!" Gatomon darted forward, dashing past MJ. "Margaret, what're you doing?" she demanded as she stepped out onto the ledge.
Margaret was already half way up the ladder and did not hear her Digimon. There was a suddenly flash of lightning, followed by a rumble of thunder. The Kimura girl paused and glanced up at the clouds above before continuing to climb. She slipped a little on the last step before scrambling up onto Blimpmon's roof. "Dawn!"
Gatomon joined her human partner and came to a halt right next to her. "W-what is going on here?" she demanded. She sprinted towards the captive humans and Digimon. "Lightning Paw!" she jumped up in the air before bringing her claws down on Rosemon X's vines, first freeing Agumon and Veemon before releasing Dan and Dawn.
The two ten year olds fell to the floor with a grunt. Dawn sat up and got out her crest and D-Power. "Right, now you're gonna get it." She got to her feet. "Digital Ring Release!"
The screen on the orange digivice shone brightly before the small ring was released from inside. Dawn grasped it with one quick swipe before holding her crest up and placing the golden ring in the small slit.
"AGUMON DIGIVOLVE TO... GREYMON!"
"GREYMON DIGIVOLVE TO... BURNINGGREYMON!"
Dan did the same, releasing his ring and catching it in his hand. "Here you go Veemon!" He flung the ring over to where his rookie Digimon stood. Veemon jumped up and caught it....
"VEEMON DIGIVOLVE TO... STRIKEDRAMON!"
As the two Digimon finished digivolving there was a thick bolt of lightning that struck through the sky before the heavens opened and rain began to pour from the clouds above.
The rain did not seem to faze the three Digimon as BurningGreymon and Strikedramon charged forward roaring mightily.
Rosemon X smiled before bringing her black cape up covering the bottom half of her face. She jumped up in the air, spinning around as she did so. Her cape wrapped itself around her body before she stretched her arms out to the sides, opening her cape out wide behind her body. "Forbidden Temptation!" she hovered in the air as a bright flash filled the sky and petals began to appear above her head.
The pink petals floated gracefully in the air at first, before glowing brightly, stiffening up and flying through the air like bullets.
Strikedramon and BurningGreymon were forced to a stop as the petals battered against their bodies, slicing their skin like razor sharp knives.
BurningGreymon grunted. He kept his head down before dealing punch after punch destroying the petals that came his way.
Suddenly there was another flash of lightning and the sky lit up for a split second, immediately followed by a deafening roar of thunder. The rain began to batter down hard making visibility hard.
BurningGreymon punched the last petal away before stretching his arms outwards. "Pyro Barrage!" he fired two solar heat wave lasers from the cannons on his arms.
Rosemon X remained in the air before the whips in each of her hands hardened and she held them like swords. With two quick slashes, she sliced her weapons through the two laser beams destroying them instantly.
Strikedramon leapt up into the air. He brought his right fist back before dealing a strapping punch to Rosemon X's stomach, catching her off guard.
She screeched in pain. "Why you little...." she growled through gritted teeth. "Beauty Shock!" she pointed one of her whips at Strikedramon, which sent out a bolt of lightning.
Strikedramon yowled in pain as the electricity shocks ripped through his body. He plummeted to the ground landing back on Blimpmon with a heavy thud.
Rosemon X landed down on the roof before repeating the attack once more, but used both whips. "Beauty Shock!" Two huge lightning bolts shot out from the tips and slammed into BurningGreymon and Strikedramon. The lightning bolt mixed with the rain just made the attack even more powerful.
The ultimate and champion shrieked in agony and were thrown to the other side of Blimpmon and collapsed in a tangled heap, motionless.
"BurningGreymon!" "Strikedramon!" Dawn and Dan cried out in unison as their Digimon were thrown past them. They were about to bolt towards their fallen friends when Rosemon X suddenly landed in front of them.
"I must say I thought they would have put up more of a fight than that." She smiled down at them. "Now, for you two darlings."
The two ten year olds gasped and spun round on their heel ready to dash away in the other direction. But Rosemon X was too quick and suddenly grabbed them, grasping her hands around their necks and lifting them up off of the ground.
"Dawn, Dan!" Margaret cried out as she stood helplessly at the back of Blimpmon. She watched as the two goggle kids struggled to free themselves from Rosemon X's tight grip.
Dan tried to prise her hand from his neck using his own hands but she had a firm grasp on him. He cringed as he felt the grip tighten and looked up to see a sickening glint in the Digimon's eye. It was starting to feel like she was squeezing the life out of him. "Str....... S-Strikedramon!" he managed to choke out.
Strikedramon stirred and opened his eyes, still a little woozy from the attack. He grunted uncomfortably as he pushed himself up off of BurningGreymon.
"Let them go!" Gatomon demanded as she sprinted across Blimpmon's top towards the mega Digimon.
"Forbidden Temptation!" Without moving, Rosemon X summoned upon her rose petals. They appeared in the sky above her in a soft pink glow before hardening and homing in on Gatomon below.
The force from the attack halted the feline Digimon in her tracks and one petal blasted her square in the face which sent her falling back against the floor, doing a backwards somersault before falling limp in a heap.
"Gatomon no!" Margaret ran forward and dropped to her knees beside her fallen partner. "Gatomon, speak to me." She begged before looking up at their opponent wide eyed.
Rosemon X chuckled under her breath. "Too easy." She laughed. "Now, time to dispose of these two little darlings." She turned and began to walk to the edge. She stopped and stretched her arms out and dangled the two children over the edge of the huge Digimon.
"Ahhh!" Dawn and Dan both cried out and squirmed in the mega Digimon's grip as another flash of lightning lit up the rough sea below...
"N-no!" Margaret suddenly leapt to her feet and bolted forward. As she did, something began to glow underneath her jumper. She came to a slow stop once she noticed the light and pulled out a small heart shaped locket that she wore every day. It contained a picture of her father inside, and right now it was glowing.
Margaret took hold of it in her left hand as it began to change shape. It grew bigger and changed into a round flatter gold object. Once the light faded around it, Margaret could see her mother's crest, the crest of Light, was engraved in the middle.
Dawn cringed and tried to loosen Rosemon X's hand from her neck. "R-release the ring M-Margaret..." she managed to choke out. "... and p-place it in y-you're c-c-crest."
"Huh?" Margaret looked down at the crest in her hand. The crest of Light was still glowing a faint pink colour. She slowly reached down and unclipped her digivice from her yellow belt. Glancing down at the screen she saw a small gold ring flashing. Before she could react, the screen shone and the ring burst out from inside. It hovered in the air just in front of Margaret's face.
Dawn coughed as she was finding it harder to breathe. "M-Margaret.....!"
Margaret hesitated a little at first before reaching up and taking hold of the ring. She carefully placed it in the slot of her new crest and Gatomon felt a new burst of energy....
Rosemon X glanced to her left. "Ugh.... what now?" she muttered.....
"GATOMON DIGIVOLVE TO.... KAZEMON!"
The light around Kazemon faded and she landed on Blimpmon's roof with a loud thud. She folded her wings in and placed her right hand on her hip. She was smaller than Rosemon X who would tower over her if stood directly next to her.
The two female Digimon remained still staring each other out. A flash of lightning ripped through the sky, illuminating their features. Kazemon's eyes were narrowed in a very infuriated look whilst Rosemon X sported a sly cocky smile.
Margaret gasped as she looked at her newly evolved partner. The rain continued to pour down. Her wet hair was beginning to stick to her face. She glanced down at the crest that hung around her neck, taking the place of where her locket used to hang.
She took hold of it and a few tears mixed with rain fell from her eyes and landed on the round shaped object. Her locket had gone. The one thing she had of her father's memory and kept close to her heart had disappeared just like that.
Rosemon X laughed spitefully. "A little girl in a fairy costume is not going to stop me."
Kazemon snarled. "This 'Little girl' can pack quite a punch." She taunted. "Now let them go before I wrap that vine whip around your neck."
Rosemon X released a loud, screechy cackle. "Oh I'll let them go sweetie, don't you worry." She turned away from Kazemon and outstretched Dawn and Dan a little further over the edge.
"Don't even think about it."
The mega Digimon turned to see BurningGreymon and Strikedramon standing either side of her. Strikedramon had his fists clenched and BurningGreymon had his cannons pointing directly at her.
"You do and we'll tear you to shreds." The dinosaur Digimon snarled.
Rosemon X scoffed a snooty laugh. "No one threatens me. Especially far less superior Digimon than myself."
"I'm warning you!" BurningGreymon exclaimed angrily stepping forward and thrusting his cannon at her. "Drop them!" he demanded.
A sly giggle escaped Rosemon X's lips. "As you wish." she turned her attention away from the ultimate Digimon and looked down at the two children in her grasp. She gave them an evil smile before letting go.
"NO!" Margaret screamed.
Kazemon gasped in shock as she witnessed Dawn and Dan both disappear over the edge. Both children screamed as they felt themselves fall down towards the water below. Kazemon sprung forward gliding through the air. She spread her wings out and soared down the side of Blimpmon as Rosemon X watched on smiling.
With two quick movements she scooped Dan and then Dawn up in her arms before they hit the deep water below. "Urgh... you two have got to cut back on all the candy." She half joked as she opened up her wings further and hovered in the air.
Dawn and Dan didn't answer. They were both frozen with shock from the sudden fall. Their faces were pale, eyes wide and their hair was windswept, even messier than before.
Kazemon flew back up with both children draped over the back of her shoulders. She soared over an agitated Rosemon X before fluttering down and landing next to a relieved looking Margaret.
The two goggle kids fell to the floor in a seated position, still wide eyed.
Rosemon X growled through gritted teeth. "Why you little-"
"I don't think you want to finish that sentence." Kazemon cut in. She held up both hands, stretching out her fingers. "Hurricane Wave!" Long, thin tornadoes erupted from her fingertips. She controlled them before throwing them forward.
"Pyro Barrage!" BurningGreymon fired attacks from his cannons.
"Strike Claw!" Strikedramon lunged forward, bringing his right arm back ready to strike a punch.
Rosemon X spun around quickly. Her cape wrapped itself around her body, shielding her from Kazemon and BurningGreymon's attack before she threw her cape back and blocked Strikedramon's punch by holding her arm in front of her face and pushing him away. She giggled snootily. "Nice effort but you're gonna have to try a lot harder than that." She jumped up into the air. "Beauty Shock!" Rosemon X pointed her whip down at the champion Digimon and fired a lightning bolt. Strikedramon leapt sideways as the attack blasted Blimpmon inches where he was just stood.
The blast caused Blimpmon to shake from side to side. MJ, Jonathon and their two Digimon were thrown about inside and ended up falling to the floor. "W-what's going on up there?" MJ wondered as she grabbed hold of the dining table for support.
Jonathon fell landing on his back as he clutched his laptop to his chest. "What trouble have they got themselves into now?"
"Maybe we should digivolve and go help them." Patamon suggested who was perched on top of MJ's head....
Back outside, Rosemon X continued to defend herself from every attack the DigiDestineds' Digimon threw at her, as well as counter attacking straight after. Once she floored Strikedramon with a hefty kick to the head, she hovered in the air as Kazemon, BurningGreymon and Strikedramon surrounded her from on Blimpmon's top.
She giggled a little as she observed the tiresome Digimon below her. "I have no time to play around with you darlings. This rain is doing absolutely nothing for my hair." She joked, as she ran a finger through her ginger hair.
"Then go take a hike Carrot Top!" Dawn shouted at her, fists clenched.
Rosemon X snarled, her left eye almost twitching in anger. "I've had it with you and your arrogant little attitude child... Forbidden Temptation!" She spun around summoning her rose petals. "I'll take you all out with one blow!" she bellowed. The rose petals filled the sky and hammered down on everyone.
BurningGreymon growled as the petals battered against his body. "I'm sorry but I've had enough of your flower arrangements, Pyro Barrage!" he roared as he thrust his two cannons upwards and fired two laser beams.
The attacks smashed through the storm of petals and caught Rosemon X off guard. She screamed as she was hurtled through the air.
"Tempest Twist!" Kazemon flipped over standing on her hands and began to spin very quickly. She created a strong force of wind that spiralled up and blasted Rosemon X from underneath.
She lost her control and began to fall to the ground to where Strikedramon was waiting. The dragon Digimon surrounded himself with blue flames before putting all of his weight on his right hand. "Striking Barrage!" He kung fu kicked his left leg up and booted the mega Digimon back up into the air.
She screeched as she was thrown through the air and fell downwards, disappearing over the side of Blimpmon.
All three kids grinned. "I think you got her!" Dawn exclaimed.
"Think again darlings!" Rosemon X re-appeared hovering in the air, her arms stretched out and her cape blowing in the wind. She cackled. "I'm a mega Digimon in case you have forgotten. It's going to take a lot more than that to defeat me."
Suddenly two attacks came out of nowhere and blasted the mega Digimon from the left. Everyone turned to see Swanmon and Flybeemon hovering in the air.
"Argh... these brats are more trouble than I thought." Rosemon X muttered to herself.
"White Wing Flapping!" Swanmon flapped her wings fiercely and created a hurricane force gale that swept across Blimpmon and sucked Rosemon X into its whirlwind.
"Rapid Kick!" Kazemon leapt up into the air and stretched her leg out kicking the mega Digimon from behind, before repeating the attack with both legs. With one last swing of her right leg and kung fu kicked Rosemon X square in the face.
The evil fairy Digimon regained her composer fast and counter attacked. "Rose Spear!" using her right whip as a sword she drove it forward aiming for Kazemon's abdomen, but missed and sliced the sharp weapon across the ultimate's bare skin.
Kazemon cried out in pain and fell to the ground, landing on her knees and hunched over, holding her right side. She gritted her teeth and lifted her head up, glaring at Rosemon X through her lilac hair that had fallen over her eyes.
Rosemon X smiled triumphantly and stood in an intimidating manor. "If the little girl can't play, run along back to Primary Village." She mocked laughing to herself.
Kazemon growled and launched herself into the air. She thrust her right leg forward and kicked Rosemon X in the jaw, sending the mega into a backwards somersault in the sky. Just before she could compose herself once more she glanced down below.
"Wildfire Tsunami!" BurningGreymon was storming up towards her surrounded by flames. Before she had time to react, the dinosaur Digimon grabbed her. She wailed in pain as the flames off his body burnt her skin.
BurningGreymon threw her up into the air like a ball before soaring up above her and releasing his Wildfire Tsunami attack as a tempest of flames and wind. It slammed down into the mega Digimon, which sent her hurtling down, crashing onto the top of Blimpmon who rumbled in agony.
The smoke from the impact soon cleared and Rosemon X shakily got to her feet, battered and bruised. She cringed as her body ached all over.
Flybeemon stopped hovering and landed on Blimpmon. He glanced up at the raging storm above them. The rain was still battering down hard and fork lightning ripped through the sky every few minutes. "Hmmm I wonder...." he murmured to himself.
"You kids think you've won.... but I'll have the last laugh..." She floated a little into the air and raised her whip up above her head, ready to release another attack. "It's all over!" But before she could, Flybeemon thrust his stinger upwards.
"Lightning Sting!" a bolt of red lightning was released from the tip and like a lightning rod, Rosemon X's whip attracted the attack. It struck the top of her weapon and the electricity coursed through into her body. She cried out in shock.
Flybeemon landed back down and stood up straight, just as a massive lightning bolt from the storm above ripped through the sky and joined with his electric attack. "Attack now!" he commanded.
"Pyro Barrage!" BurningGreymon fired his cannons....
"Tempest Twist!" Kazemon flipped over standing on her hands and spun around, creating a force of wind....
"Feather Tornado!" Feather's fell from Swanmon's wings and formed into small wind vortices....
"Strike Claw!" Strikedramon slashed his claws with one swift movement, releasing a boomerang shaped energy attack....
All the attacks merged together and entered the huge lightning bolt. The sudden burst of energy inside travelled down through the vine whip and into Rosemon X's body. She screamed in agony as the electricity surged through her insides. Her eyes widened and bulged and it looked as if they were about to pop out at any moment.
Margaret cringed and turned away as Dawn and Dan watched on in amazement. Rosemon X's screamed continued as her body exploded into a swarm of data. All that was left was her black cape that slowly floated away in the wind and down towards the ocean.
Everything fell silent as all the Digimon de-digivolved back to their rookie forms and the rings returned to their respective digivices. The only sound was the rain beating onto Blimpmon's body and into the ocean underneath them.
Salamon walked up to her human partner. She had a slight limp and a small cut across her stomach.
Margaret smiled. "You did great Salamon. I'm proud of you. You-" she stopped in mid-sentence and her smile soon faded as her eyes cast down to the new crest around her neck. She held it in her left hand before sighing and dropping to her knees and lowering her head. From all the hype of the battle she had forgotten what used to hang around her neck.
Dawn and Dan were stood at the edge of Blimpmon's top watching Rosemon X's cape float in the water before it got bogged down with water and slowly sunk. "Ha, we sure showed her." Dan bragged as he placed his hands on his hips triumphantly.
Dawn grinned and pulled her goggles down back around her neck. "Uh huh. We've just defeated a mega Digimon. Surely we can show that Undead King who's boss now. Heck, maybe that's why he keeps running away every time we meet because he knows how strong we are."
"Excuse me but don't forget the weather played a big part in finishing Rosemon X off." Tentomon spoke up from behind them. "If it wasn't for that bolt of lightning we wouldn't have had the power to destroy her."
"Ah c'mon rain on our parade why don't ya?" Dan responded. "It was mostly our strength that took her down. We were all over her before that bolt of lightning struck. It was just amount of time before we finished the job."
Dawn was half listening to her best friend. She had spotted her cousin. Margaret was on her knees with her head down and seemed to be holding her new crest in her hand. Salamon was stood next to her. The Kamiya girl walked over and knelt down in front of the Kimura girl.
"My locket...." she heard the older girl whimper. "It's... it's really gone...."
Dawn glanced down to see the crest. "Is that where your crest appeared from?" She knew about the small locket Margaret kept around her neck. But she didn't know at the time that had transformed into the crest. "Well....." the brown haired girl began but stopped for a moment before scooting closer to her cousin. "....you could say... .... t-that, well... Uncle Tenchi kinda helped us just then." She stuttered a little at first, unsure if what she said would help.
Margaret slowly lifted her head up. Her face was streaked with both tears and rain that was still falling but had eased off a little.
Dawn smiled a little. She took hold of her cousin's crest in her own hand. "Yeah." She continued. "He gave you the light and power to help Gatomon digivolve and rescue me and Dan. I know the locket and photo have gone, but Uncle Tenchi will always be in here." She held the crest up. "Every time this lights up you'll know he'll be right here with you."
Dan and Veemon both glanced at each other with a surprised look. This was a side of Dawn anyone rarely saw. Even as her best friend, Dan rarely saw past the tough manner she usually showed.
Margaret began to show a small smile. She sniffed and wiped the raindrops off her nose. "Yeah... I guess you're right. Thanks Dawn." She glanced down at Salamon and patted her on the head before getting to her feet. She then smiled. "Well, how about we go back inside and get some more sleep?"
Dawn stretched her arms outwards and yawned loudly. "I second that." She yawned again. "Man, I'm exhausted."
"I'm not surprised. It's almost 3am." Patamon piped up.
"We won't be arriving at File Island for another day so we have plenty of time to get fully rested." Tentomon added.
"And re-energized. I hope Burgemon makes more of those burgers for breakfast." Dawn grinned as the children and Digimon began to head towards the ladder.
"Burgers for breakfast?" Patamon questioned, raising an eyebrow.
Margaret giggled a little as Dan and Veemon began to climb down the ladder. "She'll eat anything in the morning." She commented before following them down. "One time she had ice cream for breakfast."
"Hey!" Dawn shouted down before she climbed onto the ladder. "I was five, Mom and Dad were both in bed and that was the only thing I could reach!" she exclaimed as everyone made their way down the side of Blimpmon and back inside.
The rain had now almost completely stopped and the wind had died down. The moon made a brief appearance through a break in the clouds as Blimpmon continued on his long journey to File City....
