Chapter Twelve: Forest Terminal and the Sad Good Bye
"We finally made it" J.P complained.
We stood by the train tracks near a sign that said 'FOREST TERMINAL'
"Where a Trailmon?" I questioned.
"Maybe they're on their way here." Suggested Takuya.
"Who cares there a restaurant here" J.P cried.
A bird like digimon with a tail of a bush appeared. He told us the first meal is free. We all went in to eat. The order we sat in is: Takuya, Koji, Zoe, J.P, me, Tommy, Bokomon, and Neemon. The bird broke the eggs and the fell in our bowl and sizzle.
"Thank you" We all said and dig in.
Taking a small bite I put the rest back down. "Thank you this is a wonderful meal, but I'm afraid we just can't take it. For you see we feel bad for eating such great food and not being able to pay for it." I lied.
"Don't worry its fine." The bird said.
"No we feel just so bad." I insisted.
"O but let me warn you if you're going to the Forest Terminal then be careful I hear that no one has come back yet, and it's very dangerous." The bird warned.
"Thank you." I said and we left.
"Man Akira. Are you good at smooth talking or what?" J.P said
"Why thank you" I said.
We walk up towards the stairs on the tree. The first stop "There's two roads which one do we take?" Takuya asked.
Tommy D-Tector showed a map and pointed to the right. We followed that direction till we hit a place where there was trees covering the rest.
"Are you sure it's this way?" I asked.
J.P D-tector shone this time and the trees bend out of the way. We walked until we couldn't see the steps no more.
"I wish the fog will disappear it's getting hard to see." I complained.
"Hey maybe my D-tector can do something." Zoe said dragging hers out. It shone and the wind blew the fog away it revealed a crystal like palace. Koji's D-tector opened the first group of doors, followed by Takuya's.
Sorcerymon led us towards Seraphimon, "The prophecy said that one day a group of humans will one and save Seraphimon from the frozen ice." Sorcerymon explained. Our D-Tectors shone and I pointed the light towards the ice as did everyone else. Seraphimon was freed. Takuya and the rest of us started questioning Seraphimon. Seraphimon explained the legend about the wars. Similar to that, that Bokomon told. Except there was a difference. The difference was: One digimon wanted to become a legendary warrior, but wasn't so it joined Lucemon and the 11th warrior had to beat it before she could help the rest. The 11th warrior wasn't originally a warrior just a digimon who helped.
After the explanation Seraphimon has one more thing to say to us. "Thank you for your hard work and now listen carefully there is one more favor I would like you to do." We all listen intensely. "Go home" Seraphimon said.
"What?" We yelled unbelieving. "We won't go home especially after what we saw what Cherubimon had done to this world." Takuya said.
"To destroy homes and loved ones; to corrupt them and turn them against their families, their friend, their own kind. I can't just stand here and do nothing. I know I have been useless so far, but I can't stand this. I came to this world unknown to what I was here for. But now I see that this world is in great danger and it needs help. I WILL lend a hand if I can and if I can't I will still do it." I said my voice raising.
"Akira…" Zoe said quietly.
"We are legendary warriors, we can help," Takuya said. "And besides we don't know how to get back."
The crystal like wall shattered and in came Grumblemon, along with four new digimons I never seen. "So here is where you are." Grumblemon grunted. "Give back beast spirit now"
Takuya, Tommy, Koji, and J.P spirit evolve into their human spirits. Zoe backed up. I took my rod out and held it in defense pose in front of Zoe. Zoe knew how to fight but she hasn't done it in a real battle yet, nor was she ready to and I was definitely not ready to vs. the questions. "Who are you" I shouted at the new comers.
"This is Ranamon, Witchmon, Mercurymon, and Arbormon." Introduced Grumblemon.
"These are the wits that you lost too." Mocked Ranamon. "Draining rain." A black cloud flew overhead of Agunimon, Kumamon, and Beetlemon. The cloud started to drop rain. The three cried in pain.
"Dianamon where are you?" cried Witchmon. I flinched and luckily only Seraphimon seems to noticed.
"Seven stars." Seraphimon called, ready to help us.
"Dark reflection." Mercurymon said using his irony shield he threw the attack back at Seraphimon. Seraphimon got hit and his fractal code was taken by Mercurymon. Seraphimon was back in to an egg form.
"Seraphimon!" I cried.
"No, it's all over." Mumbled Sorcerymon.
"Can't we revive Seraphimon, if we have his digiegg?" asked Zoe grabbing his digiegg.
"Yes! That egg is our last hope, get it to Ophanimon." Sorcerymon said with sudden hope. Zoe ran behind the warriors and so did I. The warriors stood in front protecting the egg, Zoe and I. I clutch my rod and held it in defense mode in front of me and Zoe.
Sorcerymon pressed a red button and the wall behind us disappeared. Socerymon led up through a corridor and onto a Trailmon. It was a getaway train.
"Come on Socerymon" I shouted.
"No. I must make sure that they don't follow you." Socerymon said his last brave words and closed the door.
"NOOOOOOOOOO!" screamed Zoe and she burst into tears. I held her close and gritted my teeth at the wall as we all know what will happen.
"Soceryemon" I yelled as we sped up.
