"TYRANT FIST!" Ogremon exclaimed, his fist surrounded with a black energy and launched it at Meredith.
"Meredith!" The Digidestined and Lopmon screamed, as the fist was inches away from Meredith.
"AH!" Meredith shrieked, and closed her eyes, ready to endure the pain, but after a few seconds, she noticed there was nothing. She opened them to see Mistymon in front of her, the fist having went straight through his armor and stopping before hitting Meredith.
"Mistymon!" She shouted, and ran to his front, with Ogremon backing up, surprised.
"OH NO! Logan, we gotta do something!" Joey yelled, and began flapping his hands, hitting the Coredramon in the face, who let him free in response and grabbed his nose.
"You're right! Eat this, Lizard-Breath!" Logan responded, and kicked Coredramon in the stomach, causing it to let him go and stumble back into the other Coredramon, letting go of Richard and Chase as well and falling over.
The Digidestined surrounded Mistymon, whose Data was leaking out through the whole in his chest.
"Mistymon, are you okay?" Logan asked, but the Magical Knight only coughed out data in response.
"L-logan...I always thought….YOU were reckless...But to think I did THIS….hahahaha." Mistymon replied, before de-digivolving back to….Wizardmon!?
"WIZARDMON!" The group screamed, tears forming in their eyes. Wizardmon began de-digivolving even further until he reached Fresh level, Mokumon.
"I'm sorry for leaving you so early on your journey as Digidestined, but…. I couldn't let you be killed, Meredith… Well….good….bye." Mokumon finished his last words before bursting into data, that flew away, dissipating into nothingness.
"W-Wizardmon! NO!" Meredith cried, and began sobbing into her hands, with Chase rubbing her on the back, crying a bit himself. Joey began crying loudly, wailing to high heavens. Richard sniffed a little before tear drops began falling, with Logan holding back the tears, his face turning red.
"No….NO!...Ogremon," Logan began standing up and charging towards Ogremon. His eyes began glowing orange, with his Digivice glowing black. Koromon began glowing orange as well, making the pink ball confused. "You…have taken away one of my dearest friends...AND NOW, YOU WILL PERISH!"
"Logan….you….yes...He WILL perish….For taking Wizardmon way….taking our friends away….he will NOT be forgiven...EVER!" Koromon screamed, and Logan began screaming in anger, with the Digivice shooting a dark light at Koromon, breaking the jar and hitting him.
"Koromon digivolve t-t-t-t-t-t-to…." Koromon began glitching out, his data being corrupted. He began Warp Digivolving to Ultimate level, which was caused by him and Logan being perfectly in sync with their emotions….of rage..
"I have failed...I let one of my friends die! AND YOU WERE THE CAUSE OF IT! I WILL KILL YOU AND YOUR KING! NO MATTER HOW STRONG HE IS HE WILL PAY! KOROMON, DARK DIGIVOLVE!" Logan shouted, and Koromon began forming into a much larger Tyrannomon with armor forming onto him. Instead of the regular orange light, it was a grey light, which he burst out of revealing he was the corrupted metallic dinosaur Digimon….MetalTyrannomon.
"METAL TYRANNOMON!" The beast roared, and slowly stomped up near Logan. Joey looked up at the Ultimate level in fear.
"He reached Ultimate!...But not in the good way. Guys...I think this is similar to what happened to Terriermon and me in the lab. We were so determined to show our worth and protect the ones we love, that we became perfectly in-sync with our emotions, so he Digivolved without my drive. I think we can all do it after sharing the same experience with our Digimon, and Logan has done it!….But with a negative emotion. And now...rampage is going to ensue." Joey explained, with the others looking at Joey in shock.
"That sounds really cool, big bro! But….this isn't! We have to do somethi-" Richard began, but he was interrupted by Chase.
"No. If we step in, MetalTyrannomon will kick our butts. Even with that whole In-Sync Emotion thing. We just have to let them blow off this steam." Chase stated, which resulted in a angry Richard.
"What!? Chase, don't be stupid! I know we're new at this thing, but so is he! We can stop him!" Richard countered, and took out his Digivice, which was glowing light blue. It then sent a beam of light at Betamon, busting him out of the jar.
"Richard is right! Betamon digivolve to….Seadramon!" The serpent screamed, and charged at MetalTyrannomon.
"W-we….we did the In-Sync….uh, In-Sync Charge! That's what happened with you, right Joey?" Richard asked his brother, proud of himself and his Digimon partner.
"Yeah! You guys were really courageous to do that!" Joey exclaimed, and was filled with pride. Terriermon felt the same way, and a green light was shot from Joey pocket directly at the Digimon.
"Terriermon digivolve to….GARGOMON!" The dog Digimon shouted, and began firing mini-missiles at Ogremon and MetalTyrannomon.
"BACK OFF!" Logan yelled, and MetalTyrannomon fired missiles back at the two Digimon, blowing them up into oblivion. The two Digimon reverted back all the way to the Fresh level from that attack, with their Tamers running up to them and dashing back.
"Zerimon….Good try!" Joey told his tiny green ball of a partner, who smiled slightly.
"Stupid Ultimate...You did awesome, Pichimon!" Richard screamed into his white fish like Digimon's face.
"Yeah, Yeah, just quiet down a bit-pichi." Pichimon responded, groaning.
Meanwhile, Meredith had her Digimon go to Champion by In-Sync Charge as well, but the rabbit monster weren't much better.
"Frozen Blitz!" Turuiemon growled, firing several ice shards at MetalTyrannomon, who slashed her with his metal claws, resulting in her being sent flying back into Meredith, but not before turning back into her Fresh stage, Conomon.
"Nice one, sweetie! We'll win next time!" Meredith cooed to her partner, who smiled in response.
"I told you guys! We can't win! It'd be stupid and up to luck!...but….God, I can't let my own "knowledge" trick me out of helping my friend! Looks like I gotta be a bit more reckless! Veemon, let's go!" Chase called to his partner, and a yellow light was shot out of his Digivice that hit Veemon.
"Veemon digivolve to….Magnamon! Magna Blast!" The armored dragon roared, shooting a golden blast out of his chest that hit MetalTyrannomon directly, knocking him back a bit.
"Shining Gold Solar Storm!" Magnamon screamed, and time and space opened up right above the area, where several golden comet like blasts were sent down into the battleground. Many of them crashed down, some of them hitting the Coredramon, which instantly destroyed them.
"Oh Crap! Looks like I better go!" Ogremon shrieked, and quickly tried running out of the scene, but was caught by a meteor crushing him, and his data was sent flying out.
"Excellent! Now, YOU! You're my friends…..and yet you tried to kill my Digimon partner…...you little bastards. MetalTyrannomon, KILL THEM!" Logan growled, and MetaLTyrannomon turned to the Digidestined.
"This isn't good….Wait, I have an idea! Magnamon, take out the Digivice!" Chase ordered, and Magnamon nodded.
"Magna Punch!" The royal knight tried destroying the device, but when he neared it, a dark energy surrounded him, stunning the Digimon.
"What's going on!? Magnamon, move!" Chase yelled, but it was too late, and MetalTyrannomon grabbed Magnamon and slammed him onto the ground.
"This isn't looking too good…." Magnamon mumbled as he reverted back to his Fresh form, Chibomon.
"And now...you die!" MetalTyrannomon snarled, and lifted his foot up, holding it above the baby Digimon.
"CHIBOMON!" Chase screamed, and held his Digivice out, with it glowing golden. Suddenly, the Digivice shot out another golden beam that hit Chibomon and surrounded him, then came back to the Digivice like a Grappling Hook.
"Thank god...But we're not done yet…" Chibomon reminded his partner, turning to Logan and Metal Tyrannomon.
"How the hell are we gonna stop him!? Our Digimon are too weak to Digivolve anymore, and we're pretty useless on our own! Wait...hold on! Have you realised that the first time our Digimon digivolved was when we were feeling one really powerful emotion or doing some great? I was being knowledgeable, Richard was feeling brave, Joey and Meredith were feeling emotions of Love and Kindness….and Logan wanted to...protect his friends. Friendship." Chase explained, and the others realised what he meant.
"You mean to bring….the good Logan back, we have to make him feel the same emotion or something?" Joey asked his friend, who nodded..
"Quite like that. But...how….Even if we managed to De-Digivolve MetalTyrannomon, Logan's rage would just Digivolve him back! Wait!" "ENOUGH WITH THE WAITS!" "What if we made him realise what he was doing to Agumon? That way he would stop!" Chase responded, and the others understood.
"Yeah, we just have to run over to him and slap him across the face!" Richard yelled, but he was smacked across the head by Joey.
"Really?! And you call ME stupid!" Joey exclaimed to his brother, who whined in response.
"We'll tell him our best memories with him! That'll jog back his good part, right?" Meredith theorised.
"Precisely! Now, let's go! Joey, we'll distract MetalTyrannomon, you talk to Logan first, you've known him longer than any of us!" Chase exclaimed, and Joey nodded, running to Logan.
"Logan, remember when we first met?! I threw my pudding at the wall in Grade 1 so it would fly, but it accidently hit you and pudding was splattered all over you! And then I tried washing you off with my apple juice, then you laughed and poured your Chocolate Milk on me!" Joey called to his friend, who stopped glowing orange for a second, but it came back immediately came back.
"Meredith, your turn!" Joey shouted, and Meredith switched places with Joey, running to Logan.
"Remember in Grade 5 when you agreed to be my boyfriend, and then we broke up the next day and you said, and I quote, 'It's not me, it's you.' You always had a great sense of humor!" Meredith yelled, and Logan stopped glowing again, a bit longer this time, but it came back.
"Richard, you're up!" Meredith said to Joey's younger brother, who nodded and Richard went to Logan with the female running back to distract the beast.
"When I was in Pre-School and you were teaching me how to ride a bike, and then I learned it, then we drove past Joey and laughed at him because he didn't know how?! You were the best at helping others out!" Richard screamed, and Logan paused. This time, the glowing stopped for a good minute.
"We did it!" Richard shouted, but as soon as he did, the orange aura returned and the youngest member groaned, then swapped with Chase.
"Logan! When I first moved here, you were always there for me! Helping me out! Introducing me to all of the people who would become by best friends! And you ARE my best friend! Because we admit each others mistakes! Because we tell each other what's going on! Because you're like a brother to me! And I…..I hate this Logan, because he's not our Logan! Logan is the person who deserves his role….as the leader of the Digidestined!" Chase hollered, and something immediately snapped inside Logan.
"AGH! GET OUT! STOP!" Logan screamed, and the aura flew out of him. It then burst into data, along with the dark glow of his Digivice. Suddenly, the Digivice produced and incredible, white light, with several Digimon's data flying out of it and into the fog, where it began combining with the fog itself.
"What the hell?" Joey asked himself, and noticed that MetalTyrannomon was closing in on his brother and Meredith. He instantly ran towards the beast and jumped on it's back.
"STOP IT AGUMON! COME DOWN! Can't you see you're hurting your….friends!?" Joey shouted inside the beast's….ear? Whatever it was, the armored dinosaur stopped slashing and thrashing around, and began de-digivolving, with Joey hopping back off it's back.
"Oh….." The Digimon mumbled as he slowly reverted all the way back to his Fresh stage, which was Poyomon, a white little ghost like Digimon.
"Er…" Logan grunted as he fell to the ground, weak. Chase and Joey ran up to their friend and helped him up.
"What's going on…? I just remember….Ogremon killing Wizardmon….And then I got...trapped somewhere. All I could see was bright orange, and a huge dark figure slashing and hurting Digimon and people…" Logan grumbled, causing the Digidestined to become confused.
"Wha-? But just a few minutes ago you were beating the crap out of our Digimon and all those bad guys with MetalTyrannomon!" Joey explained, making the leader now confused.
"How? I wasn't doing anything! It was like somebody else was doing everything that you're saying….and I...uh, I think I know who." Logan responded, pointing up to a gigantic, blue dragon like Digimon, that was formed from the fog and the orange and black auras.
"Oh crap baskets….it's…..it's…" Joey began, sweat dripping down his forhead.
"Deltamon. Made out of Logan's anger, and the fog. He may be a baby….but he's probably stronger than Devidramon." Zerimon finished, wiggling around in Joey's hands, absolutely terrified.
"How are we gonna beat him? He's like….all of our Digimon times 20. And right now, they're in their Fresh stages….If only Wizardmon was here…" Logan mumbled, and looked up at the monster, scared.
"We try. We stay determined! We do everything in our power to stop him." Richard said, and his Digivice began glowing. Pichimon jumped up out of Richard's palms and growled.
"Pichimon digivolve to….." Pichimon glowed dark blue, and started forming into Seadramon, but for some reason larger.
"Seadramon!" The beast roared, and Richard noticed a blue aura around his partner, then grinned.
"We did it….In-Sync Charge. Before...it wasn't a true In-Sync charge. But now...it is. And we're gonna kick this guy's butt! Or rather tail!" Richard shouted, and Joey and Meredith nodded.
"Yeah! I'm not letting this guy hurt our friends! We can't let him! We may be filled with kindness and love….and we're gonna put those emotions to use!" The pair yelled, and their Digivices glowed their respective color, as did their Fresh staged partners.
"Zerimon/Conomon digivolve to…" The two Digimon began forming into Gargomon and Turuiemon, but larger and with their weapons bigger as well. They then burst out of the light, green and pink auras surrounding them.
"Gargomon and Turuiemon!" The Digimon duo exclaimed, and Chase looked at Chibomon, smiling.
"We may not be the strongest on the team...But we do have one thing. Intelligence. And we're using our strategic minds to beat this monster….RIGHT NOW!" Chase told his partner, who grinned back and nodded. Veemon and Chase's digivice started glowing golden, then began transforming.
"Veemon digivolve to….," Veemon began growing in size, with armor being added onto him and his body getting more muscular. The Digimon burst out of the light, surrounded in a golden aura and exclaimed his name, "Magnamon!"
"Poyomon, I know I...dark digivolve you. I may not have actually seen it...but I felt it...and I'm truly sorry….But we can't give up….We just...can't… Because we have to protect our friends." Logan said to his Digimon, who gave a small smile back, then started glowing orange.
"Poyomon digivolve to…." The small white baby monster grew into a much larger version of Tyrannomon and roared, slashing at the air and roaring. It stomped over to Alphamon then emerged out of the light glowing orange, "TYRANNOMON!"
"Here we go….everything is on the line….Like always!" Logan hollered, and their monsters charged into battle.
