Digimon

Roses are red

Violets are blue

I don't own digimon

So please don't sue

My Digimon characters:

Saori, Janie, BlackSorcerermon, BlackWitchmon, Sorcerermon, Phariemon, MagnaDragomon, WarShurekimon, MegaLubimon, Driggmon.

Lopmon is from Tamers, Diaboromon from the digimon movie Diaboromon Strikes Back.

This IS the last chapter.

Chapter 14: The Battle

"What's that?" Hikari puzzled.

"Only one way to find out" said Taichi walking through it.

Everyone followed.

"Is this paradise or WHAT?" Miyako exclaimed glancing at the white pearly clouds and the huge palace.

"What's that?" cried Saori pointing at the castle.

They all walked over to it.

"Can we enter?" squealed Mimi.

"There's a sign on the gates" pointed Iori and they all walked over to it.

"It says:

'Thou shalt not enter.

He who knows

That Hope is the Light which keeps us alive

That Light is the Hope which keeps us going

He who knows that thou shalt not live without Darkness.

He who knows that Darkness is an object to measure Light

He who embraces Darkness and welcomes Light

He who knows that Light never dies just fades and then resumes,

Only thou shalt enter the castle of Eternity' "

There was a hushed silence.

"What's it mean?" Miyako gasped.

"I think I know what it means" said Saori in a quiet voice. "It's time for me to tell you something, guys" she began.

"Four years ago, about the time you entered the digiworld" pointing at Taichi "I too came here only in a different place. That time I met Gennai like you did too. Later I went back to France leaving Lopmon here. Once there I found out that a certain pop start named Yamato Ishida had died. I came over to Japan to check whether it was true, and I found that they were rumors coz he hadn't released an album in three months! But when I went back to France I saw Nanna and Nanny taking their last breath. Then I went to the digiworld for consolation where I found Lopmon…………in terrible condition. He had been in a battle and had come off worst. I was in depression, first the big shock about Yamato, then Nanna and Nanny and now Lopmon? And then I knew that however hard I tried to believe that life was an orchard of Light I couldn't ignore the fact that the apples were of Darkness. That's when I realized that the harder I was trying to get away from Darkness in the race, Darkness was faster than me. And I accepted Darkness. And lo and behold! Lopmon was completely fine in a moment. I think that's what this poem means that the ones who understand it the most will get to go up there" she completed, pointing at the pearly white castle.

"But how do we decide THAT?" moaned Mimi.

"That is a good question kids" said a holy voice.

"Phariemon" cried the kids rushing over to her.

"Phariemon we finished…" began Ken.

"I know" replied Phariemon.

"As to the riddle you must bring here an object" said Phariemon

"Which object?" asked Takeru.

"Fire cannot burn it, water cannot drown it, yet it hurts, and is painful" said Phariemon before saying "You have precisely one hour, within the amount the first two who have brought the thing to this plant will enter, and those who haven't will I'm afraid have to lose their nearest and dearest ones. Remember if two members DO bring the object everyone will be saved" Saying this she disappeared.

"One hour is she crazy are we supposed to do that on every object we come across. Come then Agumon and Gommamon. I need you to drown and burn every object then we see if it causes pain" growled Daisuke.

Saori giggled before taking Lopmon off.

They had decided they would all search in different directions hard when there are thirteen People and only eight directions.

Time left:

0:55 mins

Taichi was searching like crazy behind every bush.

0:50 mins.

Yamato fell down from the tree getting many scratches and to top that Gabumon fell on him.

0:45 mins.

Sora looked around the castle but she couldn't find it.

0:40 mins.

Koushiro looked in through the windows.

0:35 mins.

Mimi looked here and there.

0:30 mins.

Zudomon and Jou scanned the lake.

0:25 mins.

Daisuke shred every plant he could lay his hands on.

0:20 mins.

Miyako flew higher and higher above the castle towers.

0:15 mins.

Iori and Drillmon operated underground.

0:10 mins.

Saori looked on as Rabbitmon climbed high trees.

0:05 mins.

Takeru flew higher opposite Miyako.

0:01 min.

Ken and Hikari walked to the podium again.

He thought about his mother who would get frantic again. She thought of her brother who always watched over her. He thought of Daisuke who was his first friend. She thought of Miyako the first one to understand her. He thought of Wormmon, the one who had been with him from his Emperor Days. She thought of Gatomon, the first time she had seen her in park. And as they thought of their digimon a perfect splashing sphere fell from their eyes onto the plant below.

Everything suddenly went dark as Ken and Hikari looked up and saw Phariemon.

"Congratulations digidestineds two of your members have delivered the thing" and as she said this the DDs scattered here and there wondered who it could have been.

"And now it is time for all of you to return except the two deliverers" she said.

"Who are they?" Ken inquired.

"Ken and Hikari. That which cannot be burnt, which cannot be drowned, yet causes unbearable pain is the splash of a tear dedicated for a dear and near one" she said.

Everyone gasped as they heard who delivered it and then Taichi shouted.

"So you mean to say they aren't coming back with us?"

"I'm afraid not Taichi, their home's here now, and will rule forever, till two new ones arrive to take their place" she replied.

"NOOOOOOO" Taichi cried.

Everything was fading fast for Taichi, Yamato, Sora, Koushiro, Mimi, Jou, Takeru, Daisuke, Iori, Miyako, Saori, Agumon, Gabumon, Biyomon, Tentomon, Palmon, Gommamon, Patamon, Veemon, Armadillomon, Hawkmon, Lopmon, Gatomon and Wormmon.

"Will we be allowed to see them Phariemon?" Gatomon cried.

"Yes" replied Phariemon before everyone blacked out.

"Figures though, I mean they lived up to that sign on the castle didn't they?" Taichi asked.

They were all back in the vacation home except the digimon who were in the digiworld.

"This castle is great isn't it?" Ken laughed.

"I wonder whether they'll hold a coronation ceremony………" Hikari muttered
