Hello, here's a new chapter everyone.
Shoutout to MadDogLucario96, Whiteling, and DigimonAT0318 for the reviews.
Got nothing much to say now though there is one thing... we lost a mighty warrior today. RIP Peter Mayhew, our favorite Wookiee.
Anyways, lets keep going.
Chapter 50: Commander of Evil! Demon!
Hikarigaoka District, Nerima Ward, Tokyo, Japan. December 26th, 2002. 2042 Hours.
P.O.V. – Daisuke Motomiya
We all stayed on the roof of the truck as it came to a complete stop just before it ended up plowing through Demon. Truth be told, I wish Mummymon floored it, but who knows what that could've done and Osamu and the kids safety and well-being is our number one priority. Right now, the truck just continued to remain idle with the engine running while Demon just stared into the driver's seat; not paying any attention to us which was fine by me. He soon chuckled which I swear, I could feel that chill in my bones. This guy was probably the worst guy we've ever faced… well, Ken and I perhaps. I think Ross would put this guy on par with the Dark Masters perhaps.
"I've come for the Dark Seed." He finally spoke as his eyes narrowed, still looking at the truck's cabin.
"This guy really makes me nervous…" Ken whispered to me.
"Yeah, same here man." I told him.
"First time you stare down the devil is the hardest." Ross tried to give us some sort of words of wisdom.
"Still can't believe he got all the way here though…" I said before the back of the truck opened up and then we saw a pale man in a purple trench coat hop out and come around front until he stopped right next to the doors of the truck's cabin.
"Demon himself welcoming us is a rare sight." This guy's voice is kind of unnerving as well. "What happened to the others? Did those brats get them?" Wow… this guy isn't showing any fear what so ever in the face of this Digimon. Guess the others took care of the rest of Demon's creeps if he's here… but where are they now… we could certainly use their help.
"I would choose my words carefully if I were you." Demon's gaze zeroed in on that man.
"Daisuke, what's the Dark Seed?" V-mon whispered as we ducked down as low as we could on the truck. V-mon and Wormmon had returned to their normal forms.
"No idea." I explained.
"Whatever it is… it's clearly related to Osamu-chan if that's what Demon wants." Wormmon said. Made sense. Demon wanted him earlier so I'm guessing that Dark Seed is something inside him.
"Anyway, we need to find a way to rescue Onii-san and the others." informed Ken.
"You guys formulate that. I'll contact the others." Ross then pulled out his D-Terminal and started typing.
P.O.V. – Takeru Takaishi
We were driving away from the hospital with Shuu when my D-Terminal went off in my hands. I opened up and checked to see who had sent it.
"It's from Ross-san." I told Iori. "Demon… in Hikarigaoka!?" I nearly dropped the D-Terminal when I read that. "Sorry, but we need to hurry to Hikarigaoka!" I insisted to Shuu.
"Got it. I'm very familiar with Hikarigaoka." Oh, yeah, forgot for a second that Shuu lived with Jou while he was at Hikarigaoka that night of our first Digimon encounter. He soon hit the gas and we made our way quick to Hikarigaoka.
"Another battle will begin…" Iori looked guilty, like he was still torn up about what we did earlier in the night.
"Will you be okay?" I asked.
"We have no choice, right?"
"You don't have to force yourself. If it comes down to giving the order, I'll easily make it for you in your stead, Iori. You shouldn't think of it as an obligation."
"Yes, I know. That is what I have decided myself."
"It's alright, Iori! Just leave it to me!" Armadimon assured him.
"Yeah, we're with you!" chimed in Patamon.
"Right." Iori nodded but he still looked unready to do what probably will need to be done again. "Thanks." Shuu hit the gas even more as we moved way past the speed limit on our way to Hikarigaoka.
P.O.V. – Hikari Yagami
Miyako and I were riding Aquilamon high in the sky as we were trying to find the truck that Archnemon was keeping Osamu and the other children. We soon got a message from Ross on the D-Terminal which informed that Demon had appeared in Hikarigaoka. I asked Miyako and Aquilamon to turn direction towards there which they did and now we were on our way there.
"Hikarigaoka… where I first arrive after entering Vamdemon's gate." Tailmon informed.
"And where I first found a Digiegg." I added. "Why Hikarigaoka?" I questioned as I knew that it was one of the last places in this city that needed yet another Digimon encounter. "Is something going to happen there again?" Miyako looked at me for a moment before looking forward once again.
"Are you okay, Aquilamon? Aren't you tired?"
"I'm fine, but… what about you, Miyako-san?"
"Me? I'm okay now!" Is she really? She just watched her partner kill their first Digimon.
"Yeah… now I'm okay." Miyako thought to herself. "Let's hurry!" She ordered as Aquilamon kicked up his wings.
P.O.V. – Ken Ichijouji
"Don't make this harder and just hand it over. Otherwise, I'll just take it by force!" Demon told the man as Ross tapped us and nodded that he sent out the message to the others. Now we just got to hope nothing gets violent for a few more minutes until they arrive.
"Now, don't be so impatient, Demon." The man held his arms up as if to try to cool him down, but I get the feeling this Digimon is anything but calm. He then turned his head back towards the rear of the truck. "If you want it that badly, take it." He snapped his finger and Archnemon got out of the truck and headed to the back. This was a surprise. We were already surprised to see that man in the truck along with Archnemon and Mummymon… but with that… it was clear that somehow he actually commanded them! How can a human like him control those two sadistic, homicidal monsters? Archnemon climbed back on board and soon pulled out Osamu. Okay, well, at least he's still alive and looks unhurt; but he currently had a dark look on his face and had his hands tied up behind his back.
"Now that I've implanted the Dark Seed into the kids, I don't need Ichijouji Osamu. Do as you please with him." Oikawa thought to himself. Archnemon pushed Osamu forward as he was being led towards Demon like a lamb for slaughter. What did they want with him? Did they already get it? Is that why they're handing him over? Well… we weren't going to let them have that chance!
"V-mon Head!" V-mon jumped down and struck Archnemon in the head.
"Beat Knuckle!" Monodramon came down right after him and hit her too right in the stomach while she was stunned.
"Sticky Net!" Wormmon's attack finally tied her up as the rest of us went for Osamu which Ross got to first and pushed him out of the way.
"This is gonna cost you a crate load of money that you don't have!" Ross said as he helped untie Osamu.
"First of all, thanks for the rescue, and two, what?"
"Sorry, Jedi Knight: Dark Forces Two reference; I couldn't resist."
"Guys, now!" Daisuke ordered as we all jumped for a safer location.
"V-mon, evolve! XV-MON!" "Wormmon, evolve! STINGMON!" "Monodramon, evolve! STRIKEDRAMON!"
"Now, hand over the Dark Seed!" Demon floated off the ground and headed right for us. All three of our Digimon jumped forward to stop him; only for him to stop and hold up his hands that shot out purple flames that blew all three of them away. Monodramon crashed into the street, XV-mon hit the side of the truck and Stingmon went into the bushes.
"Osamu-san, leave this to Ken and me. Go with Ross-san and get out of here!" Daisuke told him.
"No, I won't. Those children…" We all looked over to truck and saw the kids in the back that looked like they had been quite rocked by XV-mon's crash. "Because of me…" As soon as Osamu said that, that man got a glare on his face.
"Oh, yes… I'll take the other children as well." Demon said as he turned back to the man.
The man's angry look soon turned into one of a sly grin once again.
"Can't let you do that." On cue, Mummymon jumped out and cocked his rifle before aiming while Archnemon turned into her true self to assist him.
"Insects!" Demon shouted as he dashed right towards them; easily knocking them out of the fight. This guy was strong… really strong. I looked over to Daisuke and we both nodded.
"XV-mon!" "Stingmon!" "Jogress Evolve! PAILDRAMON! Desperado Blaster!" Paildramon opened fire on Demon who just stood there in the street before he was riddled with shots and engulfed in a cloud of smoke.
"Did we get him?" I asked aloud as I couldn't see anything. To our horror, when the some cleared, Demon was now towering over us as he was much bigger; perhaps as tall as Shakkoumon. All he did was then give out a sinister chuckled as he looked down on us.
"Harmonious Spirit!" A bright beam of light struck him in the back as Shakkoumon slowly floated from the other side of the street. Demon growled as Shakkoumon opened up his hands and looked like he was inviting him to fight him. A car hit the brakes hard not too far away from Shakkoumon and Takeru and Iori got out of it with Shuu.
"We must defeat that Digimon no matter what!" declared Iori.
"Go for it!" Takeru cheered on Shakkoumon.
"Dual Sonic!" Silphymon's attack ran out of the night sky and a bright purple light shaped like her came screaming down and blindsided Demon. He growled out in pain once more as he turned his head and looked up to her. We could see Miyako and Hikari had been left on the roof of a nearby building overlooking the street.
"Good luck, Silphymon!" Miyako cried out. Meanwhile, Strikedramon rejoined us and looked ready to fight again but Osamu held up his hand.
"Hang on… you're no good right now in your current form. Just stay here and protect us." Osamu advised.
"Sure could use Guilmon right now…" I heard Ross mutter to himself. "Bad time for me to have a lapse in judgment."
"Fools…" Demon's eyes narrowed. "Let me show you a new level of power." He held up his hands once more as he channeled a fireball in them. "Flame Inferno!" A large wall of fire scorched down the street right towards Paildramon. Once again, Daisuke and I were on the same wavelength about what to do next.
"Paildramon, ultimate-evolve! IMPERIALDRAMON!" The wave of fire split into three directions and overwhelmed the Digimon fast. Imperialdramon was handling it okay, but Shakkoumon had been knocked onto the ground and Silphymon was being chased through the air by a trail of fire. Imperialdramon charged through the flames and tackled Demon while Shakkoumon sucked up the flames and expelled them like he was a tea kettle blowing steam.
"Positron Laser!" Imperialdramon fired his cannon at point-blank range and sent Demon flying into the air.
"Harmonious Spirit!" Shakkoumon joined in with his attack.
"Top Gun!" All three of their attacks collided with the Dark Digimon. Surly, that had to do something.
"Did we get him this time?" Daisuke optimistically questioned.
Our answer came when the smoke cleared and Demon didn't look like he suffered a scratch as he laughed once again.
"Is this the level of your best attacks?"
"No way…" Daisuke exasperated.
"Why… why!?" Iori loudly cried.
"I can't believe all three together couldn't beat him!" Miyako shouted from the roof.
"It's as I feared… he's one damn powerful Ultimate-Level Digimon." Ross expressed his fear. If that's honestly the case… we're in some serious trouble.
Ichijouji Residence, Tamachi District, Minato Ward, Tokyo, Japan. December 26th, 2002. 2103 Hours.
P.O.V. – Third Person
At around the same time, Kaito and Ruki were watching the news but both were feeling very nervous about everything that was going on of late, especially since both their sons hadn't arrived home yet.
"Today, since this afternoon and until now, in Ginza, Takeshiba, Ikebukuro and Nerima, there has been a monster scare, causing widespread panic…" The news anchor reported.
"What in the world is going on?" Kaito thought to himself as he continued to watch.
"Dear!" Ruki spoke up. "Dear, we should call the police!"
"Don't worry. The monsters are around Nerima. There's no reason for Ken or Osamu to be there."
"But what if they've been kidnapped?" Fear for her boys gripped her. "What if they were taken away like all those other kids?"
"Calm down. Ken and Osamu are alive and fine. I'm sure of it. I'm sure they're at a friend's place and can't come home because the trains stopped working." That wasn't truly helping her nerves.
"But I told them to call if either of them were going to be late…" She buried her hands in her face and started to cry.
"Boys… what are you up to? Are you involved in all this?" Kaito continued to think while trying to support Ruki.
Hikarigaoka District, Nerima Ward, Tokyo, Japan. December 26th, 2002. 2104 Hours.
P.O.V. – Daisuke Motomiya
"So? Will you come with me, Ichijouji Osamu?" Demon gave out his threatening request once again. Osamu took a step forward before Ken grabbed him.
"You can't go! Don't do it, Onii-san!" Demon merely chuckled.
"Let me change your mind, then." He held out his hand and that fireball ignited in it… and was pointed right towards an apartment complex! He was now threating to destroy it and kill so many people if Osamu didn't come with him!
"Stop!" I screamed out. He ignored me and launched his stream of fire right at the building.
"Imperialdramon, Mode Change! Fighter Mode!" Imperialdramon jumped up and activated a shield to deflect the vast inferno that was being sent towards the building.
"That's…" I muttered as I recognized the shield. "The light that surrounded us when we flew around the world…"
"This is as far as you get!" Imperialdramon declared. He then aimed his arm and turned the shield inward, sending the whole attack right back to its sender. Demon kept it back from engulfing him.
"What child's play." He taunted.
"It won't last long!" Imperialdramon worried as he kept trying to put more steam into the shield. "What should we do, Daisuke, Ken?"
"Even if you ask me…" I said as I couldn't think of anything. The rest of the others rejoined with us. The shield cracked a bit but the fire was sucked up by Shakkoumon who expelled it once again.
"You obstinate fools!" shouted Demon.
"Damn it! Now what!?" I questioned.
"Why…" Takeru growled. "Why did you appear? Why can't you leave us be? If you're part of the darkness, stay in the world of darkness! Don't come out as you please!"
"He's a villain, Takeru-kun." Ross told him. "His only desire is to see darkness engulf everything."
"It may be too late, but…" Iori turned to us as it looked like he may have come up with an idea. "Can't we send him back to the Digital World somehow?"
"Right!" Miyako agreed immediately. "I think Shuu-san has a laptop in the car! If we open the gate with it…" Demon interrupted as he gave out a sick laugh.
"That won't be necessary!" We looked up at him and he held his hands up while still keeping the shield and fire away from him. Above him, a purple mist formed before a foreign land appeared in it… it was the Digital World. "See, I opened the gate just like you desired."
"He can open the gate on his own…" muttered Miyako.
"How do you think we entered this world in the first place? Chasing me back to the Digital World is meaningless! I can appear at any time using my own will, fools."
Miyako soon fell to her knees in despair with this sudden revelation.
"It's no use… we can't win."
"Hey, what are you talking about?" I shouted at her. "We can't give up! There has to be a way we can beat him!"
"Please stop trying to console us." Iori spoke up.
"What? You too, Iori?" Ross questioned. "Don't you dare quit on us now!"
"But it's true, isn't it?" He actually had tears building in his eyes. "Even Imperialdramon, Silphymon and Shakkoumon fighting together can't beat him. Sending him back to the Digital World is useless. What other way is there? It's the end!"
"We can't say that, Iori-kun! There has to be a way! There just has too!" insisted Ken.
"I got it…" Takeru said as he continued to lock his eyes towards Demon. "A place where he can't return from… Neither the Real nor Digital World… If we could find a place like that…" Hikari gasped.
"The Dark World."
"That's it! It's supposed to be different world beyond the Digital World. If we lock him up there, I don't think he'll be able to get out easily."
"Hold on!" Ross stepped up to Takeru. "You want to send him to Digimon Cthulhu?"
"It's probably our only chance, Ross-san!"
"Maybe… but I fear we'd create an unholy alliance somewhere down the road…" Ross went quiet for a moment. "You're right, best chance we've got considering we don't have the strength to kill Satan over there."
"Even then… how do we open a gate to the Dark World?" Miyako asked as she still was on her knees. "Can we even do something like that!?"
"Well…" Hikari hesitated. "Right… back then, being take there had nothing to do with my own will."
"No one wanted a gate to open." chimed Takeru.
"I knew it… it's impossible." Iori admitted defeat. Demon chuckled once more.
"As I said, just give me the Dark Seed. If you do that, I promise to return to the Digital World and never appear in your world again."
"I doubt that!" Ken shouted at Demon before turning to us. "There's no way we're handing Onii-san over to him and I'm sure he wouldn't keep that promise. Whatever the Dark Seed is that he wants, it won't be good for either world." Ross and I nodded with him.
"I… I…" Osamu finally spoke up again after being quiet for a bit. "I opened a gate with my Digivice once before. To that world." All of us except Ross and Ken expressed shock upon hearing that. "Oikawa said there's a gate point in Hikarigaoka. If that's true, this D-3 may be able to open the dark gate!" He held it up and pointed it towards Demon before it started to shine purple. We soon heard the sounds of waves and saw a black hole in the center of the gate Demon opened up that was getting bigger.
"That's…!" Takeru exclaimed. The hole got bigger and bigger as we saw Osamu starting to sweat. He then screamed out like he was in pain.
Hikari immediately ran over to him and grabbed his arm.
"Hang in there, Ichijouji-san! Don't give in!" She tried to support him. We then saw in the black void dark waves starting to move. "Waves…"
"It may work!" Takeru cried. "Hang in there, Ichijouji-san!" Now Takeru ran over to support him as Osamu continued to grunt out in pain.
"Ichijouji Osamu… Ichijouji-san is fighting his fear of darkness…" Iori observed.
"He's doing all he can to open the dark gate somehow…" Miyako looked up and got off her knees.
"And yet, I…" Iori growled as he closed his eyes.
"Miyako, you idiot!" She did the same. They both ran over and placed their hands on Osamu's arm as well. "I'm scared… is this the fear Osamu-san has been fighting against?"
"Hang in there… please hang in there, Ichijouji-san!"
I soon ran over and placed my hands on Osamu's arm. They really weren't kidding about the fear.
"Come on, Osamu-san… you can do it! We're all counting on you and we know you can do it!" I gave my words of encouragement as Ross joined in.
"You're much stronger than you think, Osamu… you can do this, but you've got to have belief in yourself that you can do it and fight your fears that are holding you back!"
"That's right, Onii-san!" Ken was the last to place his hands in lock. "Don't give up! You're not your old self anymore. You're not the Digimon Kaiser! You're my brother who stood up for me when I thought I was all alone! You were there for me through so much and now it's time I repay that by being here for you, right now! You've been troubled, suffered, and finally broke free of the power of darkness, I saw that first hand. You've atoned for what you did! You have nothing more to fear anymore!" Wow… I never knew Ken could give such a speech. Osamu's eyes opened wide after Ken said that.
"This warmth… is it Ken-kun's heart?" Hikari thought.
"Osamu-san's fear is disappearing…" noticed Miyako.
"Please, Onii-san… Believe in yourself like I believe in you! Like we all believe in you! You can't lose to the power of darkness! We're here for you! Send Demon back to the Dark World!" The D-3 glowed even brighter now. Suddenly that black hole then faded away and was replaced by a colorless world. That must be it! He did it!
"That's… Dagomon's Ocean…" Demon noticed.
"Now! Positron Laser!" "Top Gun!" "Harmonious Spirit!" Imperialdramon fired his cannon while Shakkoumon and Silphymon sent out their attacks which hit the shield and pushed Demon straight back into the gate. All he did however was just chuckle in a sinister tone.
"Insolent fools, you will come to regret this!" The laughed manically as the gate closed on him, trapping him in the Dark World!
P.O.V – Osamu Ichijouji
We gave out a collective sigh of relief before we cheered at what we did. Our Digimon all devolved and jumped right back towards us. I held Monodramon in my arms before I remembered those words that Pedro said yesterday when he was talking about the statue. "{No matter what a person had done… he didn't judged their past. He suffered on the cross to erase and forgive the sins of our past.}" I was thinking that after everything Ken said when I tried to open the gate and fight my fear. I may never be able to forgive myself for what I had done as the Kaiser, but if the others and more importantly Ken could, then perhaps my sins could be absolved after all.
"I understand now." I muttered.
"What, Osamu-chan?" Monodramon asked. I looked down and smiled down at the purple dragon.
"I finally understand now, Monodramon." I replied. "I don't need to feel guilty all the time anymore for the past, for our pasts don't define our futures." He smiled back as I said that.
My thoughts then suddenly remembered the issue back at hand and I turned my attention back towards the truck.
"Ah! The children!" I exclaimed. We saw Oikawa right by it talking to them.
"Kids, Hikarigaoka. Remember this place well." We then heard the sounds of police sirens going off which meant the police were finally on their way. Oikawa took off running and we all chased after him.
"Oikawa!" I shouted at him. We chased him a bit before we saw him get into a white Toyota Vista and drove off. "Damn it…" I cursed as he clearly got away.
"I had a feeling after what Dad said that he had something to do with this… I just didn't have any idea how deep he was in this." Ross said. He then patted me on the shoulder. "Don't worry, they'll get an APB out on him soon."
We all stood on a nearby bridge and watched as the police were taking care of the kids. In the meantime, I explained to everyone what was going on and what had happened. All of them were surprised, especially Ken when I told him he had a Dark Seed too and that his accomplishments were all because of it. He looked so ashamed because of it and mentioned that he had a feeling something was off ever since Archnemon taunted us the day we dealt with my base.
"Hey, the police will take care of them. Let's just go home for tonight and think about what to do next." Daisuke told me. I nodded. There really was nothing more we could do for them at the moment. We then all walked back to the car that was being driven by Jou's older brother.
"We've got a problem… No matter how hard we try, there's only space for one more." I was about to off my seat but Ross pushed me into the front seat.
"Feel free to take mine, I'll either take a train or just have Dad bring the F-150 around."
"You sure?" I asked.
"It's fine… I need to talk to him anyways. Take care guys. Hikari, I'll see you back at the apartment tonight." He then walked away and pulled out a cellphone.
We were quiet for a bit as we drove back down towards the bay.
"Um, about that Dark Seed…" Hikari spoke up. "What will happen to the children that have it?"
"Well, they'll probably be like Ken at first. They'll become smarter and more athletic… Since they all want to be like the old me…" I said.
"Is it possible that maybe it won't take hold? Maybe they'll just end up like me…" Ken expressed some slight hope. I shook my head.
"If it's my Dark Seed… then…"
"Don't tell me… they won't all become Digimon Kaisers and Kaiserins, right?" Miyako feared.
"I don't know…" I buried my face in my hands.
P.O.V. – Third Person
"Youshizawa Takashi-kun, age seven. Kawada Noriko-chan, age ten. Shibata Hiroshi-kun, age eleven." The news reporter was reading off the names of the kidnapped children who just had been recovered. But Ruki was still crying.
"Where are they?" She cried.
"Okay, I'm calling the police." Kaito stood up. He was just about to pick up the phone before the front door opened.
"Osamu-chan? Ken-chan?" Ruki lifted her head and looked towards the hall.
"We're home." Osamu said as their parents ran the corner and Ruki quickly embraced her boys.
"Ken-chan! Osamu-chan!" She started to cry again.
"Mom… you're smothering us…" Ken muttered.
"Boys! Don't do things that will make your mother cry!" chastised Kaito.
"We're sorry, Dad." Osamu apologized.
"What…are you involved with?" Both brothers looked at each other and nodded. It was time for them to come clean… about everything.
At the same time, Shuu finished up dropping off the rest of the group at their homes and apologizing for keeping them out so late.
"So, when I realized, it was already this late." Shuu explained to Daisuke's parents as he was the last one to be dropped off. "I sincerely apologize.
"No, no, thank you very much for driving him home!" Daisuke's mother, Hinata, said.
"Well then, excuse me." Shuu took his leave.
"Take care."
"Thanks a lot!" Daisuke waved as the door was closed.
Daisuke walked into the living room and saw Jun with a smile on her face.
"Hey, what's with you?" He asked.
"Daisuke-kun, you're friends Ichijouji Ken, right?"
"Uh, yeah… you already knew that."
"Well…" She ran her hand through her hair. "His brother… Ichijouji Osamu… he's single right?" Daisuke's eyes widened.
"W-what's wrong with you, Jun? Stop messing around! I thought you only had eyes for Yamato-san…" Jun grew a frown upon hearing his name and huffed.
"I'm over him."
"What?"
"At the concert… when everything was going crazy… he was right there… he had a chance to run into my arms, grab me and take me to safety… but he only just ran by me like I was nothing."
"Well, he was more concerned with the Digimon attacking than running into your arms." Daisuke thought. "Or… it could be that he never actually cared about you in the way you wanted him to." Daisuke said aloud to her. "Did that ever occur to you at all?"
"Whatever… but I'm done with him! Rock stars are just too high maintenance. Geniuses are where it's at!" She declared. "~Osamu-chan…" She sang as she danced into her bedroom. Daisuke groaned.
"Oh, gods… better give Ken and Osamu-san a heads up from now on…"
Back at the Ichijouji residence, Osamu and Ken spent the next few hours talking with their parents and explaining everything involving the Digimon. They didn't hold back and omit anything. They explained about what had happened during the night and Osamu's disappearance; about the Dark Seed and the Kaiser. To say their parents were shocked was an understatement. Finally, the two of them got up and walked to Osamu's room where Monodramon and Wormmon were waiting.
"Mom, Dad… these are our Digimon partners." Osamu said as he kneeled next to Monodramon while Ken picked up Wormmon.
"Pleased to meet you two, my name is Monodramon." "Good evening. I'm Wormmon."
At the same time, the kidnapped children were being returned home of their folks and while things looked normal for the time being, they all were ticking time bombs. Merely pawns in a sick game that Oikawa was playing.
"This is good." Oikawa said as the car being driven by Mummymon continued driving further north. "All the rituals are now complete. Now we just have to wait for the time. The time when the Dark Seeds grow in the dark depths of the kids' hearts, and then we'll reap those Dark Flowers."
He chuckled as the car kept on its drive…
Well, this isn't good for anyone.
Got nothing much to add for this chapter so see you all around for the next one.
"Push the button, Frank."
