Chapter 13
Renamon's parents stood in shock of the revelation that their daughter's mate was a human. On the other hand, the male Renamon had a disgusted look on his face.
"This is your mate, a pathetic human? What a disgrace." Said the male Renamon.
"Didn't my mate already tell you to shut up?" I asked.
"Do you want a fight?" The male Renamon asked pissed off.
Suddenly, Renamon's father stepped in. "Black Renamon, that's a great idea. Renamon you will fight this human, and when you crush him. You can take the rightful place as my daughter's mate."
"Sounds great to me." Black Renamon said.
"Human, I'm giving you a choice. Revoke your title of being my daughter's mate and run. Or prepare to be badly hurt my him."
"I will not revoke my title, and if this asshole thinks he can beat me. Then lets fight. But I guarantee that I won't lose." I said in a calm yet serious voice.
"Then lets begin human." The Black Renamon said.
I looked over to Renamon and told her, " You've better get to a safer place."
"I'm not going to leave you Adam. I love you too much to do that." She replied while getting in front of me and hugging me.
"Alright, then can you at least stand next to your mother? I don't want you go get hurt."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." She said while she buried her head in my chest. I lifted her head with the crook of my finger.
"I love you Renamon." I said just audible.
"I love you too Adam." She said. I picked her up as if she was my bride and carried her over next to her mother.
"Don't let her get hurt. Okay?" I told her mother.
"Of course." She said and actually smiled at me. And not one of those fake ones. She also had a tender look in her eyes.
"Alright, lets do this." I said as I drew my sword.
"About time." The black Renamon replied. As I got in my stance, I closed my eyes to focus on what I had to do. I knew that my opponent was more experienced at fighting, but we were pretty equal in strength. So it was going to be a fun fight. When I opened my eyes, the black Renamon was cracking his neck and fingers.
"Alright here are the rules." Renamon's father said. "There are no limits and anything goes. The first one that is knocked out loses. Understand?" Black Renamon and I nodded our heads. "Then lets begin."
Black Renamon charged at me with great speed. I stood my ground to block his attacks. He threw a couple of punches and kicks, but I blocked them with ease. While he was back peddling, I swung my sword at his chest to attempt to draw blood. But he manages to stay one step ahead of my blade. After I realized I couldn't land a blow, I stopped and let him back away. I stood there with my Zanpaktou in my right hand. Damn I can't cut him. He's faster than he looks. What am I saying, I have Flash Step. I stood there and slowly made a smile on my face. Then I walked forward and used my Flash Step.
Black Renamon stood there, trying to regain his focus. Damn, this kid is good. I underestimated him. He's fast and just as strong as me. When Black Renamon looked up at his opponent, he was smiling. Then Adam began to walk forward and suddenly disappeared. "What the?" Black Renamon said franticly as he searched the area for his opponent. But he was nowhere to be found. Suddenly he reappeared only six feet away with his blade across his chest ready to strike. But he disappeared again. Black Renamon was standing there motionless, in a state of shock. He quickly shook it off and regained his focus.
I went back to my position were I started. I stood there just like I had before.
"I see you got a couple of tricks of your own. Now its my turn." Black Renamon said. " This attack will immobilize you. So I will end this little fight." He jumped into the air and yelled "Shadow Abyss." The surrounding area became engulfed in darkness. It was like the blackest night thought possible. Black Renamon landed back on the battlefield and began walking towards me. "You'll find that you can't move anything. It's just the darkness taking it toll." He was about fifteen feet away from me. I started to smile again. "What are you smiling about? You're about to lose and that's all you can do? Your more pathetic than I thought."
"You fool, your attack has no effect on me."
"What!? How!?"
"It's because," I said softly, "I AM THE DARKNESS!!" I leapt forward and drew back my sword across my left arm to attack Black Renamon. He had no time to react, so my attack connected. I landed a shallow cut that reached from his right hip to his left pectoral muscle. He stumbled backwards in pain. Black Renamon raised his right hand to cover his wound.
"Arg, damn you human. You're leaving me no choice." He said. Then he jumped into the air and yelled "Black Renamon digivolve to Black Kyubimon." A black egg like structure engulfed him. I stood there ready for anything. When the egg like structure dissipated, my opponent looked like Renamon's parents, but black. He now stood about eight feet high and was about thirteen feet in length. He also had nine tails that were tipped with silver. "Now you have no chance human." Black Kyubimon said with a smile. "Lets end this now. Foxtail Inferno!" Suddenly, black flames began to appear at the end of his tails. When the fireballs got to the size of coconuts, Black Kyubimon launched them at me. These things came in all different altitudes and speeds. I was able to block four of them with my sword, and managed to dodge another three fireballs. But that was only seven out of the nine. Where were the other two? Suddenly, as if an answer to my question, the last two fireballs hit me in the middle of my back. I screamed in agony and collapsed to my knees. I was now breathing heavier and gritting my teeth because of the pain.
"Last chance human, give up now and I will let you live."
"As long as I still draw breath, I wont stop fighting."
"Fine, I guess I will just have to kill you then. Dragon Wheel!" Black Kyubimon launched himself at me and was engulfed into a dragon of black fire. He was coming at me with great speed.
Suddenly a voice popped in my head. Adam!! Call out my name now. Or you will surely die. It was Shruikin. I quickly got up and yelled out.
"Awaken! Shruikin!" Suddenly I was engulfed in a black shield and my sword began to change. The blade disappeared and the only thing that remained was the hilt. Then a black stainless steel pole with interlocking links began to appear and took the place were the blade was. This pole was about seven and a half feet long and two and a half inches in diameter. Suddenly long angles blades began to emerge from the black pole. They looked exactly like blades of a scythe. But they differed in size. The longest one was at the end of my sword, and the shortest blade was near my hilt. All the blades were double edged so there was no escape from their wrath.
After the sword stopped transforming, the shield still remained. Black Kyubimon's attack hit the shield dead on. But the shield didn't budge; Black Kyubimon stopped his failed attack and retreated seventy feet away. The shield disappeared and I stood there with my newly modified sword and unharmed.
