Chapter 7 is here!! :D
Chapter 7: The Great Escape
Serph and Swept looked up at the shadow. It was a human and that person had a digimon with them. The sun was directly over the human's head, so they couldn't tell if it was a he or she. But for sure, there was a digimon with the person. The person moved closer to them and than their identity was revealed. It was a girl with shiny black hair, smiling at them. Her eyes were light blue and her face was gentle and happy. Her skin was tan a bit, and she was about 6 feet tall, a bit shorter than Henry. She wore a flower apron, a jade necklace, a light blue long skirt, and a white sleeveless shirt. She wore white gloves and a red hair clip shaped as Hello Kitty's face. She smiled at the two, and her digimon came out and smiled at them.
"Hello, sorry for that. I'm Jenny, Jenny Nguyen." Her smile was graceful as she reached out her hand for a hand shake. "This is my digimon, Gem." She smiled as her digimon, Fufumon, jumped off her shoulder and landed in front of the two other digimons.
"Nice to meet you!" Gem exclaimed, happy as she could be.
Swept and Serph looked at each other. They didn't talk to them for some while, it was quiet.
Meanwhile, Henry and Alice were thrown into a dungeon cage. Henry woke shortly after their were thrown into the dungeon, after the guards had left. Henry yawned a bit and stood up. He was confused, they weren't in the city anymore, they were in a different place. The walls were made of bricks and stones, all had cracks in them and were movable. Vines were everywhere, as far as the eye could see, tangling with the cage's rusty old bars, and parts of the wall. Torches were hanging along the narrow strip of wall placed before every cage. There was a small bench, that hanged from two chains. The dungeon was dark, lonesome, and depressing.
"Where are we..." Henry asked softly. The flames flickered and danced as Henry stood at the cage bars and just looked at the spiral stair case that was in front of him.
"We are in the dungeon of the great master..." A voice said.
Henry turned around and looked into the darkness that was around the corners. An Apemon came out of the shadows. His fur was brunt, his face was beaten, and his voice was filled with sorrow. "The great master...?"
"The Great Master, soon to be ruler of the digital world. The Great Master has these powers that could control the digital world, along with kill digimon, control them like a puppet, and revive digimon. He is basically a god in this world." Apemon said. "He is the strongest so far, not to mention his guards. The Ancient Warriors, The Royal Knights, even the Devas work for him."
Henry was speechless. The Great Master seemed to have a lot of power, not to mention his guards. The Ancient Warriors, warriors that control the elements. The Royal Knights, some of the strongest digimon in the face of the Digital World. The Devas, the digimon that follow the Chinese Zodiac, each balanced of power, except when it is the year of that animal.
"I know what your going to do, your going to try to escape. Don't..." Apemon said, returning into the shadows a bit.
"Wait...Why?" Henry asked. "Why, have you given up?" Henry just knew that Apemon gave up already. He gave up hope, gave up to see the digital world again. Henry didn't sound like himself anymore. More like his father or mother. "Just tell me..."
"After many times of trying, I don't see the need to. It will all end up the same, defeat, torture, and suffering..." Apemon disappeared into the shadows and Alice started to wake.
Henry knew, that something had to be done...
Outside of the castle, Serph, Swept, Gem, and Jenny, were discussing a plan. Since Serph and Swept couldn't digivolve, it was up to Jenny and Gem to stall the guards, and make sure that they didn't get caught. The plan seemed to be flawless, perfect would be a better word, but than everything changed as a piece of paper floated by.
"Huh? What's this?" Jenny picked up the piece of paper. "Does it happen to be that your tamers are Alice and Henry?" Serph and Swept nodded. "Than this is bad. We only have until moon raise."
"Why?" Swept asked her, snatching the piece of paper from her hands. "O no, your right...They are going to be killed tonight..."
"This is really bad than!" Serph exclaimed. "Change of plan, Jenny, we will go find our tamers, while you guard the door to wherever they are. Got it?" The three nodded. "We're going to raid the castle..."
The sun was high up in the air, the heat got intense and unbearable. The wind rushed by the four, as they hid among the rocks, waiting for the front gate guards. They were just standing there, Vajramon was one of them, the other was a Volcdramon. They stood there, as if they were just waiting for something to happen.
"No use, I doubt that they would move..." Serph whispered softly. "But there is a way, we need to distract them for us to go through." He turned towards Jenny. She nodded. "Let's go than..."
"Gem, digivolve!" Jenny shouted, the guards looked their way. A bright light was shining around the stone.
"I got this one..." Volcdramon said, walking their way. Serph and Swept moved quickly and ran towards the gate, without being seen.
"Fufumon warp-digivolve to...GinRyumon!" With that, the battle started between a champion digimon and an ultimate. Vajramon, laughed a bit.
"This isn't going to be any competition..." He than turned towards the gate to see Swept and Serph, almost going in. "Stop them!" He shouted. "Tera Blade!"
"O crap..." Serph said softly. Both jumping out of the way, the attack burst the gates opened with a huge pillar of clouds and dust raising into the air.
"Chatsuramon stop them!" Vajrimon shouted, running towards the gate. Chatsuramon stood in front of the gate, growling at the two rookie digimons. "Tera Blade!"
"Shuvabojana!" Chatsuramon shouted. The two attacks basically flung Swept and Serph into the air. Wounded.
Than, Gem jumped across the sky, and Jenny grabbed the two digimon and they entered the castle, landing on Gem's four feet, they began to run, they didn't know where but run.
Volcdramon came behind Vajrimon and Chatsuramon. "This is so bad...She is stronger than I expected..."
"She was just a diversion..." Vajrimon said. "Just a diversion..." The three stood there. "The others will handle them..."
In the throne room, the great master laughed a bit. "So they think they will find their tamers...I'm going to make it easier for them...Indramon! Bring me the tamers!" Indramon nodded. Following behind him was a Unimon.
Walking down to the dungeon, footsteps were the only things heard, nothing but that. Indramon walked towards the dungeon cage where Henry and Alice were placed in. Indramon looked in, no one was there. Indramon gasped and took the keys and opened the door. Unimon stayed out, incase of an ambush.
Indramon carefully stepped into the cage, soon in the center. No one was there. He was already nervous. He had failed the Great Master and couldn't take his mind off of the Great Master's common punishment, death. He turned around and than something dropped on him.
"Metallic Fur!" It was Apemon. Henry and Alice ran out of the cage, but stopped by Unimon.
"Solar Ray!" A Centarumon jumped out of the other cage and pinned Unimon to the ground. "Go now!"
Henry and Alice nodded and ran up the stairs, running at full strength, they came out of the dungeon in about a couple of minutes. They entered a large room, filled with statues of the Ancient Warriors on top of pillars. There were hundreds of doors on the side of the walls, probably filled with digimon, working for the Great Master. Henry and Alice slowly made their way through the great big room, making sure not to make a sound. But than the doors bursted opened and a digimon came flying across the sky, landing in front of them. A girl tamer was with it along with Serph and Swept.
"Swept!"
"Alice!" The two were reunited, hugging each other, they looked at the girl.
"Who are you?" Alice asked her. Henry was with Serph, looking at the doors. They were all opened a bit, and you could see eyes, just looking at them, glaring at them.
"I'm the girl who just save your ass..." Jenny replied. She was a bit of a tom-boy at times and had quick mood changes. "And I'm Jenny!" She smiled a bit.
"Strange..." Henry said softly, Serph laughing a bit.
"Well either way, Swept, from now on your name is going to be AK, just like AK-37 or something like that. I was in the dungeon and I didn't remember why I named you Swept, so yeah, I wanted to name you AK from now on!" Alice smiled. Swept was now excited, a new name.
"Okay! From now one I'm AK!!" AK laughed a bit. Than there was a clapping sound behind them.
"Bravo, bravo, bravo..." The clapping stopped and Indramon and Unimon came out of the dungeon, with Apemon and Centarumon with their hands.
"Master." The two bowed down. Vajrimon, Chatsuramon, and Volcdramon came through the gates and bowed also, as they entered.
"Now that your reunited tamers, lets have some fun..." The Great Master's smile brought shivers down the tamers' spine, it was creepy. "Ancient Warriors, awaken from your stones, release your might and wrath on these tamers!" The stone pillars started to shake, and than soon it collapsed down to dust, making clouds surround them. "Vajrimon, Chatsuramon, Volcdramon, Indramon, and Unimon, disappear..." The Great Master waved it's hand and than they disappeared, vanished without a trace. "Now, let the battle begin!" He laughed. There were footsteps and than laughing. Henry, Alice, Jenny, Serph, AK, and Gem looked at each other, back to back, staring out to the dust clouds, shadows started to appear, they were all laughing, was this the end?
