The Legend of the Spirits
Chapter 4: An Old Enemy Returns
Kari's POV
Once again, Kari was at school teaching her first class, Kouji and Zoe's class. It was a Thursday morning and it was raining heavily outside so it made her class very restless. Kari knew that when it rained, she could not ask her class to read out a passage because the rain would be too loud. That was why, to keep her class focused, she decided to give them a full English paper.
There were groans, mutters and even some curses from the class when she gave out the thick stacks of English papers. Kouji and Zoe, as hardworking as ever, did not say a single thing and just took the paper from Kari. "Okay class. I will give you one hour and fifty minutes to complete this paper (A/N: That's the time they give us for a full English paper excluding composition paper). The paper will end at ten thirty, then you will go for your recess," Kari said.
Looking at the clock, it said eight thirty-nine in the morning. Kari wrote down the starting time and the ending time of the paper on the board and when the time was eight forty, she announced that her students could start the paper.
Kari sat down on her chair and while occasionally checking on her students, she thought about what she had told Izzy the previous day. Kouji was almost confirmed as one of the new Digi-destined. Zoe might be one and Kouji's other friends would be the Digi-destined too. Izzy had researched on the Legendary Warriors and through the book and his Digimon programmes in his laptop, found out their names and elements and that there were in total ten Legendary Warriors.
Agunimon, BurningGreymon and Aldamon were the Legendary Warriors of Fire, though Izzy could not figure out why there were three of them. Some had two only and some had three in their elements.
Lobomon, KendoGarurumon and Beowulfmon were the Legendary Warriors of Light.
Kazemon and Zephyrmon were the Legendary Warriors of Wind.
Beetlemon and MetalKabuterimon were the Legendary Warriors of Thunder.
Kumamon and Korikakumon were the Legendary warriors of Ice.
Loweemon and JagerLoweemon were the Legendary Warriors of Darkness.
Ranamon and Calmaramon were the Legendary Warriors of Water.
Mercurymon and Sakkakumon were the Legendary Warriors of Steel.
Arbormon and Petaldramon were the Legendary Warriors of Wood.
Grumblemon, everyone had laughed at the name, and Gigasmon were the Legendary Warriors of Earth.
Suddenly, the thunder rumbled very loudly, like loads of wine glasses crashing to the floor. At this age, none of her students should be scared of the thunder, but Kouji surprisingly jolted and cowered in fear. He gave a shout of something that was pain or fear or something and Zoe and Kari were beside him immediately.
"Kouji, what's wrong?" Zoe asked softly.
"Zoe... The Darkness is back... We've gotta go back... Call the others, now!" Kouji muttered softly, making it barely audible to Kari. Zoe seemed to understand what Kouji was trying to say through his gritted teeth.
"Miss Kamiya, may I have the permission to bring Kouji to the sick bay?" Zoe asked, concern shining in her eyes. The rest of the students who of course did not hear what Kouji had mumbled, seemed shocked and surprised. Some murmurs were heard from some of the boys too.
"Zoe, just get everyone out of here, now! He's back. For me. I'm not gonna let him hurt the others. I'll be fine," Kouji retorted, more firmly this time.
Kouji gave Zoe a smile, the first one Kari had ever seen so far in her year of teaching him. Zoe nodded and shouting to the rest of the class to get out of the classroom immediately. Of course, no one moved. Why would they? None of them saw any danger and why should they believe Kouji?
Zoe persisted to get the rest out of the room while Kari bent down and asked Kouji, "Who's here? What Darkness are you talking about?" Kari's mind raced with possibilities. Maybe that was a Digimon, the Warrior of Darkness!
Kouji glanced at Kari, a cold and hard stare. "None of you should know. Get out while you still can!" Kouji said.
Before another word could be uttered by anyone, the wall to the left of the classroom near to where Kouji sits exploded into pieces.
Kouji's POV
Kouji would never have expected a Digimon to appear in the Human World, but that was exactly what happened that day when he was in the middle of English class in the middle of a practice paper. How unfortunate could that be? A DIGIMON was appearing in front of humans. Bokomon did say that Digimons could not survive in the Human World, didn't he?
This Digimon was not just a normal Digimon. It was not a friendly one either. Since Kouji's attachment to Light was very strong, he could sense the imbalance of Light and Darkness. When this Digimon had appeared, Kouji had felt this bang of energy that hit him like a two-ton brick. This was no ordinary Digimon. Using logic, he should not even be here, not even in the Digital World, because he was part of Kouichi, and Kouichi was already here. That Digimon, was none other than Duskmon.
The minute he destroyed one wall of the classroom, Kouji instinctively covered his eyes using his right forearm. Debris flew everywhere. Basically, he had no idea how, almost the whole class, except Zoe and Miss Kamiya, were crowded in a corner of the classroom, the furthest area from where Duskmon had destroyed. When there is debris, there would most likely be a lot of dust particles.
It was certainly like a scene in the movies- an evil villain steps out from a place where he had just destroyed, dust flying all around him. Duskmon was a blur figure in the background, but Kouji knew it was Duskmon. The seven gigantic eyeballs, a pair on his feet, knees and upper arms, and one big one on his chest. The long blonde hair that was whipping around because of the impact from the blast he had unleashed at the wall. And of course, the blood-red swords that was extended from his forearms.
Anger flared up in Kouji. His blood was boiling and he could feel it. How dare Duskmon come to the Human World to wreak havoc? "Duskmon! What are you doing here? You can't survive and the Human World and neither can you survive when Kouichi is here!" Kouji shouted at Duskmon, walking forward to face the Digimon but not too close to him. Kouji did not need to turn back to know that Zoe was rushing everyone out of the classroom.
However, he heard Miss Kamiya mutter, "A... a Digimon?"
Kouji asked Miss Kamiya while still glaring at Duskmon in the eyes, "Miss Kamiya, you know about Digimon? Zoe, get them all out of here, including Miss Kamiya and explain to her only about my situation now. She knows about Digimon. Zoe, get yourself out of here, out of this school, then text the others. It's better if only one gets hurt."
Kouji could hear from the shuffling of feet that Zoe was doing just what he had asked, though Zoe would not want to leave Kouji alone. But, Kouji was determined not to get anyone hurt and Zoe knew that. "Huh. Being protective now of your friends, eh, Kouji? I have always thought that you would be a loner and would always be a loner," Duskmon teased.
"I have friends now you creep. Answer me! Why are you here?" Kouji demanded.
Duskmon's voice had gone from teasing to seriousness. "Ever since I was reborn, I could not find comfort because YOU were still alive. However, you were in the Human World, so I gain permission to come here for the sole reason to destroy you. Without you, the world will be shrouded in Darkness. You are the Light and it is my duty to destroy the Light! Deadly Gaze!"
The eyeballs on Duskmon's body glowed red and he fired a beams of red light at Kouji. Fortunately for him, he had gone for Kendo lessons and he was agile but he could not go on forever. Kouji leaped to the side and the spot that he had been standing on burst into flames. He was a mere human and Duskmon was a Digimon. Of course Duskmon would win.
At that moment, Kouji knew that Duskmon was just playing with him when he was using his Deadly Gaze. "Duskmon, you know very well that I do not have my Spirits. This is unfair!" Kouji yelled over the destruction.
"I don't care about fairness. I just want to kill you. As a human, you will not be as irritating as when you are Lobomon. Lunar Plasma!" Duskmon growled. Using his sword, he formed a red moon and rushed towards Kouji. As agile as he was, Kouji would certainly be outrun by a Digimon as strong, powerful and quick as Duskmon. Kouji had only managed to move to his right a little before the most searing pain could be felt on his left arm.
Duskmon had sliced Kouji's arm vertically, leaving a deep, twenty-centimetres long gash on his left arm. The pain he felt was horrible, like coal that was heated until it was glowing orange-red was pressed to his left arm. Kouji did not know how, but he managed to suppress his shout of pain. He covered his wound with his right arm, hoping in a failed attempt to stop the blood flow. His blood was trickling down his arm and through his right hand too.
"How wonderful, the smell of your human blood, especially from a human who has given me so much pain!" Duskmon roared. 'I have to get him to stop now. I don't have much time. I'm losing too much blood!' Kouji thought frantically. Of course, he kept a straight face so that DUskmon could not read his feelings. Kouji glanced around the classroom and suddenly, he had an idea. A dangerous one that might just work.
