Chapter 17: Light Consults With Combination Of Powers

Last time on Digimon, the Demon Lords were in a battle with the DigiDisteneds and the Royal Knights. Justin's Crest and D3 Digivice was glowing so brightly in the battle that Justin got his partner to Mega Digivolve to the Super Ultimate level and nearly destroyed the Demon Lords, but it caused him to loose consciousness and he finds himself with the dreaded Apocalymon and the leader of the Demon Lords, Lucemon. He came back to find out he was out for three weeks and now there are a few people who believes that there is more than Justin than it appears.

Two days have past since Justin came out of his coma and now there is distress in the team, because he has met two evil Digimon. But that wasn't all, Kari and Cody were keeping a weary eye out for him incase anything bad happens. Pichimon has now Digivolved into Tsunamamon and is now very protective over Justin after that night when Justin told him what happened. But still, Justin wanted to find out what the two DigiDisteneds wanted, so he volunteered for guard duty that night.

'I'm guessing that Cody and Kari are going to come to me tonight.', thought Justin as he caught the suspicious looks from said DigiDisteneds.

*CHANGE OF SCENE*

Later that night, while everyone was sleeping, except for Omnimon-X, Gallantmon-X and Alphamon, who were having a heavy conversation with each other, Justin was sitting on a stump near the fire, tending it. Tsunamamon had also fallen asleep as he was still an In-Training level.

"I know the two of you are their, but all I will say is this: I cannot tell you everything, but I can tell you a few of the things. However, one of you will have to go to sleep, and that will have to be you Cody.", Justin said, startling both Cody and Kari.

"How did you know we were behind you when we didn't even make a sound?", Cody asked.

"Instinct, I guess. It's something I learnt when I was still back home where I first met Lansdevi.", Justin replied.

Cody nodded and then went back to where Armidillomon was, leaving Kari and Justin behind.

"I want to know what happened when you passed out, give me every details.", Kari said.

Justin thought for a while and then shrugged.

"I will tell you what happened, but not all the details. I think you'll be disturbed by the things that I saw, trust me.", Justin replied.

Kari thought for a while, then said, "If its that bad, you don't have to tell me.".

Justin nodded and then explained, "Well, I first remember waking up in darkness and fire. I thought I was in a similar area as the Dark Ocean, but it was more dreaded then the Dark Ocean. As you know, I was in the place called the Wall of Fire. I saw two Digimon, called Apocalymon and Lucemon. I told everyone that they Digivolved into a higher level and I only escaped by a portal opener that's in my Crest. Apocalymon Digivolved to Apocalymon Creepy Mode, and he was in his true form. No polygon for his body, no giant claws, just a whole body. If you know what his upper body looks like, then you can be able to tell what the over part looks like. It's Lucemon that I won't tell you. All I can tell you is that he Digivolved into Lucemon Chaos Mode and he has the power to combine Light and Darkness.".

"Lucemon can really do that? But how, isn't he a Demon Lord?", Kari asked.

Justin chuckled at this.

"I thought so at first, but after I saw him Digivolve, then I thought different.", Justin said.

"Is this how you were able to get out of the Dark Ocean?", Kari asked.

Justin nodded.

"What I told you was the truth, and nothing more.", Justin told her. Kari nodded, but when she looked at Justin, she realized there was something bothering him.

"Justin, what's bothering you?", Kari asked.

Justin gave a small chuckle, but Kari could tell it was forced.

"Am I that easy to tell if something's bothering me.", Justin asked.

Kari shrugged.

"I'm not sure, but I can tell that something is bothering you, and it's similar to the time when Piedmon and LadyDevimon fought", Kari explained.

Justin looked down, feeling a bit nervous.

'Can I really trust her enough to tell her about me and Daemon? I don't know, because I'm so confused. Daemon double-crossed me, but in fight, he helped me Digivolve Tsunamamon to the Super Ultimate. But can I really trust her?', Justin thought.

"It's OK, you can trust me Justin. I am the bearer of the Crest and Digi-Egg of Light, aren't I?", Kari asked.

Justin looked up and saw no lie in her face.

"I'm not sure I can trust anyone anymore, I'm to confused.", Justin confessed.

"It's all right, you can trust me.", Kari said, trying to encourage him.

Justin just sighed.

"Very well. I am the reason Daemon is not in the Dark Ocean anymore.", Justin said.

It took a long time for this to sink in, and Kari didn't believe it, in fact she didn't want to believe it.

"You're joking, right?", Kari asked.

She gasped when Justin slowly shook his head.

Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in Justin's back as something hit him hard.

"I knew you couldn't be trusted. Ever since that first trip to the Dark Ocean, you've been acting strange.", a voice said from behind Justin.

Justin spun around and saw Cody was holding a long, bamboo stick.

"Do you really know that was really sore.", Justin stated matter-of-factly, rubbing his back.

"What do you expect?", Cody asked sarcastically.

Justin sighed at this.

"I know that neither of you trust me, but Daemon offered me something I couldn't refuse.", Justin said sadly.

"What's that, the Digital World?", Cody asked. Justin shook his head.

"No, it's the thing I asked from the Royal Knights. What I asked them, they said it was impossible, but Daemon said he could do it.", Justin replied.

"Do what?", Kari asked.

Justin sighed heavily and said, "Open a gate back home. To the Real World.".

Kari and Cody looked at each other and Cody shook his head, disgusted at what he heard.

"So, you're telling me that you have a D3 Digivice, but you don't know how to open a gate?", Cody asked.

Justin was offended by this.

"Hey, what's that supposed to mean? Don't forget that my Digivice looked like Tai's before we defeated Piedmon and that it then turned into a 'D3', as you call them, after I got that Digi-Egg of the Combination of Powers!", Justin said, showing the hurt in his voice.

"Oh, yeah. And you haven't been near the TVs in the Digital World either.", Kari said, looking a bit ashamed at herself.

"Yeah, but that still doesn't give you the right to release one of our sworn enemies from the Dark Ocean!", Cody said, raising his bamboo sword again.

Justin just sighed again.

"Look, I was under stress. I thought I was stuck in this world forever and Daemon promised me that he can show me a way to open a gate back to the Real World. Do you have any idea how long I've been away from home, from my friends, from my family?", the boy said, sighing again, "Look, I was desperate. I miss my family to much, you have no idea how much this means to me, how much it hurts me to be away from home, you don't know the pain I'm in.".

Cody lowered his bamboo-sword, looking ashamed of himself for not understanding the older boy's feelings, whilst Kari just smiled.

"You think so?", Kari asked.

Justin looked up to see what Kari was talking about.

"Wha?", he asked.

"I've lost a dear friend to Myotismon, more friends to the Dark Masters, nearly died because of my sickness while being attacked by the Dark Master Machinedramon, nearly got killed by Apocalymon, actually been deleted by Apocalymon, nearly killed by Daemon and nearly losing to MaloMyotismon, who nearly won by covering both worlds in darkness. Do you think I don't know now, hmm?", Kari asked.

Justin looked down to his feet, not looking at the two in front of him.

"I guess you're right, but it's still been a year since I've seen my family, and they most probably think that I'm dead. It's just too much for me", Justin said and in the next second, he was crying his heart out into Kari's shoulder.

Kari looked at Cody, who then understood what happened, and he left the two alone.

Kari tried her best to comfort the poor soul, who was still crying on her shoulder, as best as she could.

"It's… all… my… fault… that… Daemon… is… released! I… will… never… see… my… family… again!", Justin said between sobs.

"Don't worry, I won't let that happen. You'll see your family again, soon enough,", Kari said.

Justin looked up into Kari's eyes and asked, "Y… you really… mean it?", Justin said, trying to stifle his crying.

Kari nodded and helped by wiping his tears away.

Justin gave a small smile.

"Thanks, for everything.", Justin said softly.

He then leant up and kissed Kari softly on the lips.

It was a small, but quick kiss that made Kari sigh in happiness.

"That's for guiding me back to the light.", Justin said, before he fell asleep in her arms.

Kari just sighed happily and kissed the boy in her arms on the forehead, falling asleep as well.

*CHANGE OF SCENE*

"At least the Child of Light has brought Justin back to his senses, because we need him to help in freeing the other Sovereigns.", Alphamon said.

Gennai nodded.

"I agree. It seems that Kari and Justin are going to be with each other for a while now.", Gennai added, smiling slightly.

They both went towards Gallantmon-X and Omnimon-X to tell them what happened.

Will Kari be able to keep Justin on the right path? And will he, Kari and Cody tell the others about Daemon? And what sort of new friendship has been awakened between Justin and Kari? Find out next time on Digimon Digital Monsters!

Looking out a dirty old window, down below the cars in the city go rushing by.

I sit here alone and I wonder why

Friday night and everyone's moving, I can feel the heat but it's moving, heading down.

I search for the beat in this dirty town

Downtown the young ones are going

Downtown the young ones are growing

We're the kids in America, oho

We're the kids in America, oho

Everybody live for the music-go-around

Bright lights, the music gets faster. Look boy, don't check on your watch not another glance.

I'm not leaving, honey not a chance

Outside a new day is dawning. Outside Suburbia's sprawling everywhere.

I don't want to go baby

New York to East California

There's a new wave coming, I warn you

We're the kids in America, oho

We're the kids in America, oho

Everybody live for the music-go-around

Ohhhhhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhhhh. Let's go!

Ohhhhhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhhhh. Yeah!

We're the kids

We're the kids

We're the kids in America

We're the kids

We're the kids

We're the kids in America
