Chapter 3: First Test
Construction Site (9:47 a.m.)
Leon stood in the digital field, less then 10 feet from the digimon he'd created. Moving with a little more caution, he slowly approached the demon beast; when he was two feet from him, Leon finally spoke.
"DeathGazimon?"
The digimon turned to face him. "Yeah, that's me, who the hell are you?" he replied casually.
"Your Tamer." Leon said, holding up his D-arc.
DeathGazimon just stared at him for two long minutes then, suddenly, he launched himself at Leon with his claws extended. Leon didn't even try to dodge the attack, he knew DeathGazimon was just as fast as Renamon, he just stood his ground and waited for the pain. It never came, at the last possible second DeathGazimon checked his swing and the deadly claws passed within centimeters of Leon's jugular.
"Sorry" DeathGazimon said "But I had to test you."
"For?"
"Bravery" he replied "And you passed, I would be honored to be your partner." he bowed.
Leon smiled "No" he said "The honor is mine" and extended his hand which DeathGazimon shook.
- - - (Susie)
Susie held Lopmon tightly, slightly afraid for her life. She had seen the strange digimon leap at the boy, she had never seen him before, and just barely miss. The next thing she knew they were shaking hands.
"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!" Terriermon shouted so loudly that the ones closest to him, Impmon and Marine Angemon, had to cover their ears.
The boy looked at him strangely "What are talking about?"
"What'd ya mean 'What am I talking about?'?" he shouted, though not as loudly as before. "Freakymon over there just attacked you and now you're friends. Are you...
WHAM!
Whatever Terriermon had been going to say was interrupted when the strange digimon back-handed him. The bunny/dog digimon was thrown backward four feet and rolled another two. The other digimon quickly closed the distance between them and stood menacingly over Terriermon.
"Look" he said "My name is DeathGazimon, and I don't take kindly to attempted humor like yours." he placed the tip of one of his claws on Terriermon's chest "Understand?" the lite green digimon gulped and nodded "Good." DeathGazimon removed the claw and walked back to the boy.
Susie nervously pulled out her D-arc and pointed it at DeathGazimon.
'Error: No Data Available' flashed on the digivice's holographic display and Susie let out a small gasp.
"What is it Susie?" Lopmon asked in a low whisper.
Susie lowered her D-arc to Lopmon's level to show her the error message.
Lopmon was confused and slightly afraid. If they had no data on the digimon then they had no idea what he was capable of, or how to stop him.
- - -(Leon)
Leon had watched DeathGazimon attack Terriermon with no remorse.
-Had to happen sometime he- thought as his partner walked back to him.
"So" the demon beast digimon began "What's your name, Tamer?"
"Leon" he responded so only his partner could hear. "Let's get outta here"
Leon started toward his, or rather Yamaki's, car; as they passed the others, Cyberdramon stepped in front of him.
"Who are you?" he growled.
Leon glared into the cyber dragon's eyes and responded so everyone could hear. "If you want to hear what I have to say, meet me in Shinjuku park; and bring your Tamers, I want them to hear this too."
With his little announcement finished, Leon stepped around Cyberdramon and continued to the car. Five minutes later he was cruising around Shinjuku, just to kill time. Next to him, DeathGazimon sat completely silent; Leon glanced over at his partner, trying to read his face. He had no luck, the digimon had made his face an unreadable mask; Leon opened his mouth to speak but didn't get the chance, for at that second the world around him dissolved and he felt himself falling.
When the sensation finally stopped, Leon couldn't tell where he was. It was too dark to see and so quiet that he could hear his own heart pounding in his chest. The air around him was completely still and dry, and it was colder then the dead of winter. There was also a tangible feeling in the air, something Leon had never felt before yet knew beyond a shadow of a doubt what it was. Evil.
Hypnos (9:53 a.m.)
Yamaki had come to about 6 minutes ago and was sitting in the ops. room, brooding.
-When I find that kid, I'm going to snap his neck- he thought sadistically.
"Sir" Riley's voice broke through his murderous musings "There was an energy spike a few seconds ago." she continued "Off the charts and at least five times as powerful ans one of the devas."
"Track it!" he ordered
"I can't, sir. It disappeared before I could pinpoint its location."
Yamaki's hand went to his lighter again, something big was happening and he was powerless to stop it, well, maybe not.
"Pull everyone off non-essential tasks and put them on a city wide scan; if this happens again I want to know!" he demanded, his anger at Leon momentarily forgotten.
"Yes, sir!" Riley said, then rushed to fallow the order.
-I may have to pull those kids out of school- Yamaki thought -but only if it's absolutely necessary.-
Dark World
Leon stood in the blackness, unsure of what to do and afraid to make a sound. A moan from his right caught his attention.
"Hello?" he said, feeling along the hard ground for the source.
His hand met a long blade that led to a furry arm and eventually a rib cage over a fur covered chest, DeathGazimon.
"Hey, buddy, you okay?" Leon asked, shaking him slightly.
"Damn it" he moaned "Where the hell are we?"
"Your final resting place!" shouted a truly demonic voice. "And I am your executioner!"
The area around them was flooded with a blood red light and Leon could finally see where they were. It was reminiscent of the Colosseum in Rome but more ornate with gothic columns and a gigantic torch at the highest point burning with a red blaze. Standing at the far end(where Leon was facing) was a figure in a black cloak holding two samurai swords.
DeathGazimon growled lowly "I'm not afraid of you!" he shouted.
"Neither am I!" Leon yelled out. That was an out right lie, but he wasn't going to admit his fear.
"That's your second mistake" the figure said in his demonic tone "And thinking you could fight me was your first!" he charged at them with impossible speed, his swords spread wide.
Tamer and digimon dived out of the way and barely managed to avoid the deadly blades. The cloaked figure turn around instantly and swung on of his swords at Leon who jumped back, the tip coming within inches of his stomach. DeathGazimon leapt at the dark figure with his claws arcing downward like five blades. The man blocked with one sword and attacked with the other, slicing the digimon across the chest. DeathGazimon was thrown back but his external rib-cage protected him from most of the damage.
"Hey!" Leon shouted "Pick on someone your own size" He rushed at the figure, who turned and slashed Leon; he ducked under the blade and rammed his elbow into the man's chest. The man staggered backed, momentarily stunned.
"Dark Blade!" DeathGazimon slash the air in front of him and a blade of pure dark energy flew from his hand toward the man. The figure dodged to the left, his temporary weakness gone.
"Now, I'm mad" the dark figure shouted and ran at them again.
This time, when the other two dodged, DeathGazimon swept the man's feet out from under him. Once the man was down Leon spun him to look at him face to face.
"Who are you!" he shouted, pulling the man's hood down. He gasped in fright at what he saw, under the hood was...
himself.
"Impossible" Leon said
"Believe it" said the dark Leon kicking his counterpart off him. "Now then" the dark Leon continued as he stood up "I think it's time I ended your pathetic existence" he raised on of his swords and began the downward swing.
"NO!"
DeathGazimon leapt at the dark Leon and slashed across the upraised arm. The dark Leon howled in pain and dropped the sword, which the real Leon picked up.
"I shall not be defeated!" the dark Leon shouted as he rushed them again.
"Dark Blade!" DeathGazimon's attack struck the dark Leon, causing him more damage and forcing him to stop.
"My turn!" Leon yelled as he charged at his dark counterpart.
The dark Leon raised his sword to defend himself but the real Leon batted it away with his own and rammed his fist into dark Leon's gut. Dark Leon staggered back and Leon stabbed his double in the chest, not stopping till the entire blade had pierced him. Bolts of black lightning played across dark Leon's body as it began to disappear. Leon watched with a mixture of horror and shock as the black electricity traveled though the sword, up his arm and was absorbed into his chest; after a few minutes the light show stopped and Leon collapsed to his knees, breathing heavily.
"Hey" he heard DeathGazimon say "You okay?"
"I'll live."
Before either of them could say anything else, the world around them dissolved and they, again, found themselves falling though a void.
Eternity
"He has passed his first test; he faced the darkness inside of him."
"Now he must face his second test."
"Not yet, let him rest first"
"Very well, he will have one day's rest"
"Then he shall face his second test"
"Agreed"
A/n: Just to let everyone that reads this story know, school started five days ago so my updates are gonna be less frequent.
Calumon: Aww... that's sad.
Me: Don't worry, my little friend, it'll take a lot more then my senior year to stop me writing.
Calumon: Yay, a new friend (starts dancing around)
Me: O-kay, that's enough for now; see ya.
