Digimon Frontier X
Chapter 14
Goofstaff again!!
It's been a couple days since our last battle. We've spent those few days relaxing at the castle, or the remains of the castle, refreshing ourselves, and resting, saving our energy. Takuya and Kouji had a huge fight though. Takuya wanted to go yesterday, but Kouji said that we should stay one more day. I know!! Typical boys!! Aw well, can't live with them yet you can't live without them!! It's practically a no-win situation. Polly then decided she was going to have a chat with Kouichi. Honestly, I think the two of them are getting close. My twin sister with my boy friends twin brother. Scary!! But hey, twins usually fall for twins!! Not that it happens all the time! It's just common. I saw Abigail talking with JP and I also saw Amy talking to Tommy. Bastion was busy talking to Bokomon, Neemon and Patamon. As for Zoe, usual, she was talking with Takuya, calling him a knuckle head. And me, I was talking with my sweet Kouji. Telling him how much I loved him and how sorry I was for what had happened. He kept saying it was alright, but I still felt guilty.
It was our final day for staying at the castle. I walked to the gate with a backpack filled with little snacks for us to eat on the way. It was going to be a long trip to Monique's castle,
(Just to let you people that have decided to skip the beginning, Monique is a boy, pronounced, Mon-ee-qu. Now please go to the beginning, because the beginning explains the whole story and I do not want people asking, "What is Hallosmon? Who is Abigail?" Go to the beginning and read every line and every word. It explains everything!! Sorry to those who had to read that that actually read the beginning and on.)
I turned around and smiled as Kouji walked nearby me. Suddenly there was a yell from the castle door. We all twirled to see Takuya, as usual, running for his life from a giant digimon. Another Greymon was after us again. The first one had been sent by me, this one was probably sent by Monique. I growled and got myself ready.
I yelled, "Ready Kouji!!?" Kouji got himself ready too.
He yelled, "You bet!!" Then we closed our eyes, feeling the elemental guardians of the sun and the moon take over us. We opened our eyes to a blood red colour. My eyes shone a bright orangey yellow light, while Kouji's shone a pale blue white light. We were Hallosmon and Masinmon. Hallosmon grabbed her sword and jumped at the Greymon, however this Greymon had really good eye sight. He saw Hallosmon and instantly reacted, by swishing his giant jaw, knocking her into the castle. She let a huge OOF escape her lips. Masinmon growled and dashed at Greymon from underneath, however, Greymon stomped on him with his giant foot. Masinmon let a yelp of pan escape him mouth. Hallosmon was angry now. Flames surrounded her as she jumped at Greymon. Greymon looked up at her, then opened his mouth wide.
He yelled, "Pepper Bombs!!" Then he shot fire balls at Hallosmon. They hit her but she kept going. Her flames had grown stronger, making her speed to Greymon faster. Greymon gasped and let a roar of fear fill the air. Hallosmon got her blade ready, then prepared for the attack. Masinmon has managed to escape, then was over with his friends, knowing there was nothing he could do. Hallosmon landed on Greymon, then slashed her sword down into his head. Greymon screamed and roared in agony. Hallosmon jumped off and grabbed her detector. She scanned the data then twirled around startled as she heard something. There was the sound of clapping hands. A man stepped out of the shadows. Hallosmon gasped as the memory of him came into her mind. Goofstaff!! She got her blade ready and growled. Goofstaff chuckled.
He said, "Very well done! I'm impressed you got Hallosmon back to good. Monique will be most pleased. It shows your strong, stronger than we ever thought. We knew you'd be strong, but never this strong. You've gone past our estimations. Well done!!" Hallosmon growled.
She yelled, "Goofstaff! What do you want?!" Goofstaff cackled maniacally.
He answered, "Monique sent me here to test you. I must say, he will be pleased, ever so pleased. You might get a special visit from him. Although, get this clear. You'll never defeat Monique. Never! Because he's a demon guardian. And demon guardians don't die. Ever wondered why when you saw him, his eyes glowed a bright red? Those were the eyes of the demon." Hallosmon nodded, understanding. Goofstaff walked closer.
Hallosmon gasped yelling, "No!! Don't come any closer!! Back away!! Or else I'll kill you!!" Goofstaff chuckled.
He said, "Is this because you're scared?" Hallosmon shook her head furiously.
She answered, "It's called giving you a chance to save yourself." Goofstaff laughed again. Hallosmon was getting sick of that laugh, in fact, she was getting sick of all of this!! This had to end! Now!! She closed her eyes, concentrating. Then she burst her eyes open and lunged at Goofstaff. Adrenaline coursing through her veins. Goofstaff however was fully prepared for the attack and swung a high kick at Hallosmon jaw. Bulls eye! He got her smack underneath the jaw. Hallosmon landed on a crumpled heap on the floor. Goofstaff walked closer to her steadily breathing body. Hallosmon squinted an eye open, but just barely. Everything was a huge blur. Goofstaff grabbed her by her hair. Hallosmon let out a little yelp in pain. She was still trying to get her breathe back. Goofstaff turned his head angrily at the woods.
A huge pack of Garururmon appeared. He threw Hallosmon at the lead Garururmon. He got her then placed her on his back. The others grabbed rope with their giant mouths and wrapped her so she wouldn't fall off or escape. All the gang could do was watch in horror. Because they were greatly outnumbered. The lead Garururmon howled and then the pack ran off probably carrying Hallosmon/Hannah to her doom. Once they were gone Masinmon finally realised what had happened. He ran at Goofstaff with all his power and furry behind him, then attempted to attack him. Goofstaff however was well prepared and blocked the attack. Masinmon couldn't move. Goofstaff chuckled.
He said, "You know, for Hannah's boy friend, you can't protect her very well, huh, can you?" Masinmon filled with furry and rage! He grabbed his smaller blade with his free hand and attacked. However Goofstaff dodged and knocked Masinmon to the ground.
He said, "What good are you if you can't protect one silly little girl. Aw well, you won't have to worry about her any more. We'll take good care of her. Unlike you!" and he walked away laughing hysterically. Masinmon grunted as he sat up. He closed his eyes and went back to Kouji. Kouichi saw how upset he was and ran to his twin brother. He bent to Kouji's level and put a hand on his shoulder.
(Kouji's P.O.V.)
I felt like crap, and that's an understatement. I let them get Hannah, then they're going to something terrible to her!! I couldn't live with myself if they tortured her. I felt something went go down my cheeks. Oh no!! I'm crying!! Can't cry! This won't help!! I can't stop the tears!! I grit my teeth together and bit my lip to stop myself from crying. Suddenly I tasted blood. I'd bit my lip open. I looked up. I saw Kouichi's eyes looking at me with concern. I felt it coming, the big throb in my throat. I sniffled. Kouichi suddenly pulled me into a brotherly hug and that was when I snapped. I started crying, grabbing onto Kouichi's jacket making his shirt wet.
Kouichi was stroking my hair and whispering, "Sh. It's okay. There's no need to cry, we'll get her back." I sniffled again.
I said, "b-but I-I I'm th-the re-reason w-why sh-she's g-gone! I-I c-could o-of st-stopped th-them f-from t-taking h-her!!" and I started crying more. Kouichi's eyes softened more and started patting my back to comfort me. I'm glad I had a brother to take care of me, I doubt I could see Takuya, my best buddy, doing this. Everyone would get the completely wrong idea. That was a funny thought, but I was too upset to laugh. Hannah was gone, and it was all my fault!!
(Hannah's P.O.V)
I woke up in darkness. I felt something furry by my side. I jumped awake to see myself stuck under a huge Garurumon. It appears he had fallen asleep while guarding me. Maybe this was my chance to escape. I desperately tried to wiggle my way out but it was really hard because this Garurumon weighed over a hundred tonnes, well least it felt like a hundred tonnes. And that was a huge understatement. I managed to sneak out and started trying to find the exit. It was just too dark. Suddenly light was shone into the room, and I finally realised it was cave. I ran to the exit, thinking my friends had finally found me. I gasped in horror at who was really at the door. It was Goofstaff. He chuckled in his usual way.
He asked, "Planning on escaping did we?" Suddenly the Garurumon woke up snarling and lunged at me, but I couldn't bring myself to face him. He bit his sharp fangs right into my back, between the shoulder and the neck. I screamed in pain and collapsed to the ground, bleeding badly. Goofstaff laughed when suddenly I heard a hissing voice.
He said, "Goofstaff!! I gave you specific orders not to hurt her!! And yet you disobey me!! You no longer have any use now to me anyway!!" I grunted and looked up to see Monique at the exit and Goofstaff looking at him terrified. Monique raised his hand and the held it at Goofstaff. He closed his fist. I saw Goofstaff's eyes widen. When Monique released his grip Goofstaff fell to the floor dead. I was quivering in fright, but refused to scream. Monique walked to me.
He bent to my level and said, "Sorry about that, here." His hand started glowing and my wound healed. I was totally confused now. He was the bad guy, yet he had just killed his own soldier for me, he apologised and then he healed my wound. I looked at him. He smirked, I gasped, then, it came, the scream!!
CLIFF HANGER!! HAVE TO CHECK THE NEXT CHAPTER. IT WILL BE UP SOON!!
