Chapter 16

" I don't believe it, why would she stay close like this but not let us find her? It makes no sense. " Tai says, looking at the reading on his digivice. There was a cluster of eight near him and then Sora's loan dot.

Selena frowns as Sora's emotions rush over her, " Goddamned winged bowling ball! He got to her. I don't know precisely how but he has her doubting herself. Jay, Tai, you know her best. "

Jaden grins, " Come on, Tai, let's go get Takenouchi back in the game. "

" On it, Jay. " Tai says, the best friends and Agumon head off towards Sora while Selena's eyes widen even as she frowns. Without even a thought Selena was off and moving, intercepting and redirecting the attack that had been heading towards her father. Kazemon curses, " Darcmon, don't tell me you're that same one. "

Takuya twirls his D-Tector around in his right hand, his brown eyes hard and unforgiving, a flurry of fractal code looping around his left hand, " Execute… Fusion Evolution! "

Those that were still there watch Fusion evolution for the first time, the parts of the H and B Spirits of Flame spinning around Takuya and then the two merge, creating something new, " Aldamon! "

Selena somersaults to her left and comes up with her left hand surrounded by four loops of data, " Execute… Beast Spirit Evolution! Ahhhhhh! Nǚhuǒyànshòumon! "

" Nǚhuǒyànshòumon is a mouthful. " Aldamon says.

" Tempest Twist! "

" Pyro Barrage! "

" Atomic Inferno!

Davis throws a wall of rock up in between his fellow warriors and Darcmon, his eyes narrowed, " This is Murmukusmon, right? "

" That's right. " Kazemon states.

" Dancing Sword! "

" Wildfire Tsunami! "

Nǚhuǒyànshòumon curses when she gets kicked away, her eyes glowing red briefly. She reins her anger in, as she could not afford to lose control of her beast spirit. The princess of flames glares at the returning enemy of the previous generation of Legendary Warriors. It took Koji and her dad to ultimately put this idiot down. Damn shape shifters, although it looked like Murmukusmon was stuck as Darcmon. Still, they had to stay alert.

Meanwhile Jaden, Tai, and Agumon manage to corner Sora, " Sora, you should damn well know by now that I will always be able to find you. Not to mention DemiDevimon is a damn trickster like Pagumon. Hell, he's a small fry in comparison to Myotismon, whom he's working for. Myotismon is basically a vampire digimon with big ambitions. If the Darkness King would be up and mobile he would never have even attempted this. He won't fear me, he'll be wary of, but not fear me. " Jaden says.

" I will never get my crest to glow, Jaden. "

" Bullshit, my mother stood for love and friendship, Takenouchi, her parents hated her yet she's one of the most loving people out there. You are not the sum of your parents, Sora, you are your own person! " Jaden fires back.

Tai and Agumon just stand aside, Jaden was the person for this job, Biyomon joins them, " I've kept trying to tell her this, but she refuses to listen. I hope your friend can talk some sense into her. "

" No one out stubborns a Kanbara except another Kanbara. " Tai states firmly, " Jaden'll talk her around, or piss her off, whichever comes first. "

Jaden looks at the red head wearing a yellow sleeveless shirt, blue jeans, and a blue hat, " What do you know about it! " Sora shouts at him.

" I know that my parents loved my siblings, this world, and myself so much that they were willing to die to protect us and Digiworld. I know my paternal grandmother loves Lena and I desperately, but she goes about showing it in the wrong way. My cousin Takato loves his biological family and adoptive family equally. He'd love to meet Uncle Shinya, but he can't because he's still in a state of suspended animation. You at least still have them, dad only woke up recently, you haven't been without for six damn years, Takenouchi! "

Sora's eyes widen as Jaden tears into her, " My little brother has been brainwashed, odds are either Lena or I will end up fighting him! I was too slow to protect them both six years ago, dammit. So you just stop feeling sorry for yourself, Lena and I have far more baggage than you do! "

" Or Sora pisses Jaden off. Didn't think that was actually a viable option to choose from. " Tai quips.

" Jaden, you're right, you and Selena have both just kept moving forward, even if it was hard. I have to do the same, because I do love all of my friends. "

Sora's crest glows red and just then a wave of bats attacks them. Jaden shrouds them all in shadows and then disperses them, " Highest level you can go, now! Execute… Spirit Evolution! "

Mirroring Koichi Jaden scans the data and soon Jaden Kanbara is replaced with, " Gepardmon! "

" Agumon digivolve to…Greymon. Greymon digivolve to…MetalGreymon! "

" Biyomon digivolve to…Birdramon. Birdramon digivolve to…Garudamon! "

" Shadow Meteor! "

" Giga Blaster! "

" Wing Blade! "

Myotismon counters with Nightmare Wave, and follows that up with Crimson Lightning. Gepardmon bats it away with his weapon even as MetalGreymon attacks with his claws. Garudamon sends a punch the evil vampire's way only for it to be dodged. Gepardmon leaps into the shadows and tackles Myotismon out of the sky. Myotismon crashes into the ground painfully and then rolls out of the way of the Shadow Sword.

" You are a more worthy opponent than I thought at first, my prince, but you are still a child. "

" Shade Crescent! "

" Nightmare Claw! "

" Shadow Meteor! "

" Wing Blade! "

" Mega Claw! "

This attack nails the vampire and he is forced to retreat. Gepardmon curses but then he grins once the vampire is gone, ending his evolution, holding up the Crest and Tag of Light. " Nice, Jay. " Tai says.

Juuban:

Molly watches her young godson from afar for the moment. She was going to make them pay for putting him through this, for taking him from his siblings, damn near killing his parents. That was when Sailor Mars attacks a child for defending Sailor Moon. Molly dives into an alley way, looks all around, and then transforms. Sailor Psyche's attack slams into the Martian brutally, " Get out of here, kid. They were only using Sailor Moon so their fights would be easier. "

The little girl races off and then Psyche gets slammed by a wall of water. She curses, she didn't want to fight her godson. Stormmon glares at the woman attacking his auntie. She had no right, " Soul Searing! "

Stormmon screams as the attack connects with him, until a moment when he was two can be seen. His eyes widen as his screams stop, then he gets back to his feet, the attack had knocked him off of them, spinning to face Mars, " You all brainwashed me, turned me from my true path, I am Stormmon, the Prince of Water, second generation Legendary Warrior for the Digital World, I am my mother's son! Geyser Minefield! "

" Soul Stinger! " Sailor Psyche calls out.

Mars curses, she hadn't thought Psyche would be able to free him. When she looks again they've disappeared. Taiki Kanbara curses fiercely and starts making his way to Odaiba, that was where he was going to be needed at the moment. He was finally back on track and nothing was going to turn him from his family again, sure, he was raised by his maternal grandparents as a son, but they had treated his mother like garbage. They had no right to treat him like a prince, though technically he was, when they had treated her like a second class citizen.
