"Prophecy"
Here is the next chapter. I hope you all enjoy and review!
"Aw, give me a break." Tai groaned as he kicked Myotismon's mask that was on the ground in the middle of the rubble.
"That lousy fog barrier's still up." Matt said.
"So beating Myotismon didn't solve anything." Mimi said when there was a beeping noise.
"Hang on. We've got mail from Gennai." Izzy said as he sat down pulling out his laptop as we all gathered around him.
"Wonderful news, my friends. I may have found the way to defeat him once and for all. All though this looks like a graham cracker, it's actually an ancient text which I've transplanted. 'The sky will be darkened by the wings of many bats. The fallen people will invoke the name of the Undead Digimon King and when the clock strikes the Hour of the Beast, the Undead King will reveal himself in his true form and unveil the beast. Then angels will shoot arrows of Hope and Light at the loved ones of those they have been sent to protect and a Miracle will happen. Please always recycle.' That last part seems weird, but good luck." Gennai said as his image faded away.
My eyes were wide as I thought over the prophecy and my visions because they were so similar.
The bats, darkness, people, fog and the angels.
Have I been seeing the prophecy this entire time without knowing it?
"Well that was about as clear as mud. Can you make heads or tails of it?" Sora asked.
"Uh, well…" Izzy said.
"Listen, Tai. Maybe we should try and find Mom and Dad." Kari said.
"You're right." Tai said.
"I wouldn't mind checking out my place, either." Joe said.
"And I'd like to change my pajamas or a matching robe." Mimi said as we all started walking off, Wizardmon and Kaitoumon following with Mr. Ishida.
"Yeah, let's go. No reason to stay here." Tai said as we all left the area, but I was getting a bad feeling.
(Later…)
We were at the building where Izzy and Joe lived, the red head walking out with his parents.
"All right, can someone explain what's going on?" Mr. Izumi asked.
"It's a pretty long story, but I'll try." Mr. Ishida said.
"Hey, everybody! Wait for me. Sorry I'm late. Huh, aren't we missing somebody?" Mimi asked as she ran over dressed in her normal clothes.
"We're waiting for Joe. He's still upstairs." Sora said.
A few minutes later, Joe and Bukamon came down with some guy named Jim, who is Joe's older brother.
"Find out what's happening at the convention center and we'll try to get through the fog barrier. Right, TK?" Mr. Ishida asked.
We all then split up to do what we were supposed to, the Ishidas going off to search for a way why to take down the barrier.
As we got to the center, we saw a Bakemon flying by, guarding the area.
"There's one of them now. Let's go." Agumon said as he and the Rookies ran off to fight while the In Trainings digivolved.
All of the digimon took out the group of Bakemon, clearing the way for us to go find our parents.
"Excellent. Good work you guys." Tai said.
"Quickly now. We must hurry." Wizardmon said before he gasped and fell to his knees.
"Don't overdo it, Wiz." Kaitoumon said as he helped his friend up.
Walking into the center, we found all of the adults and some kids passed out on the ground.
Spotting my parents, I ran over to them with Tai and Kari, our partners close behind us.
"Mom, Dad? Wake up." Tai called.
"Daddy? What happened to them?" Mimi asked as she looked over her parents.
"They're all so totally still." Joe said as he watched his parents, Jim checking them.
"Are they-?" Joe trailed off.
"No, their pulses are normal." Jim said.
"That's good." Joe said.
The brother seemed to be talking about something personal, so I tuned them out and turned to Wizardmon and Kaitoumon.
"Is there any way we can heal them?" I asked.
"I'm afraid I don't have the type of power to do so. I'm too weak after my previous battles with Myotismon." The spell caster said.
"Oh, well. We'll figure something out." V-Mon said.
Getting up, I walked off to the side to think about the visions I had before, wondering what they could mean or if they could help in anyway.
Just then, everything around me faded out as a vision came of Gizamon jumping on the van that the Ishidas, Patamon and Gabumon were in.
In a tree, Myotismon's bats flew out and absorbed the data of the Gizamon before they flew off and went to Myotismon's mask.
Gasping, I nearly fell over, but Kaitoumon was there to help keep me upright.
"Dai, what happened?" V-Mon asked.
"She had another vision." Kaitoumon said.
"What happened this time?" Wizardmon asked.
Shaking my head to clear it, I stepped out of the hybrid's arms and looked at the three male digimon with conflicted eyes.
"Myotismon is coming back." I said making them gasp.
"Sora, your mom's awake!" Biyomon cried.
We gasped and turned to see the woman had sat up with her arms out in front of her, her face blank like she was under a spell.
"Lord Myotismon. Lord and master." Ms. Takanouchi said.
"Mom, what is it? Are you all right? Mom?" Sora asked as she ran to her mother's side.
All of the other people started repeating what Mrs. Takanouchi said just as the rest of our team came in, confused and worried about what was going on.
"Stop it, Dad. Snap out of it." Tai called.
"Mom, it's me!" Mimi called.
"What's going on?" Mr. Ishida asked as he and his sons came in with their partners.
"Very odd. Physically, they're still asleep. It's like they're all having the same dream." Jim said.
"Wait a minute! Do you guys remember that prophecy?" Izzy asked as he came in.
"Yeah, it says 'the Fallen People will invoke the name of the Undead King'." Matt said.
"Well, the first part about the bats came true." Gabumon said surprising Sora, Tai and Joe.
"When was that?" Tai asked.
"What did the third part of the prophecy say?" Sora asked.
"That Myotismon will rise bigger and stronger than ever at the Hour of the Beast. Angels will shoot arrows of Hope and Light at the loved ones sent to protect them and a miracle will happen." I said making everyone look at me.
"You had a vision about this, didn't you?" Izzy asked as he brought his laptop out.
I nodded at him, V-Mon placing a hand on my shoulder in comfort.
"Terrific, but what's the 'Hour of the Beast'?" Tai asked.
"666." Mr. Ishida said making us all look at him.
"Six seconds and six minutes past 6:00 pm." He said.
Oh, that's just great.
"Sounds like triple 6…is our unlucky number." Tai stated.
"Once again; how is HE the leader?" Kaitoumon asked making V-Mon and Gatomon jump up to whack him over the head.
My brother pulled out his digivice to check the time and he didn't look too thrilled.
"It's almost time!" he said.
"Quick, get in the van." Mr. Ishida said.
Kaitoumon picked me and V-Mon up, flying off after the others that went into the van since there wasn't much room.
We made it just in time to see a large creature burst out of the TV station, Myotismon looking even uglier than he was before.
"Is that Myotismon?" Tai asked as he, Matt, Mr. Ishida, Gabumon and Agumon got out of the van.
"I'm sorry, but-but he's just an idiot." Kaitoumon said as he set me and V-Mon down.
"He's been taking steroids." Matt said.
"It's his true form. The beast." Mr. Ishida said.
"Hey, come on." Agumon said.
"Right." Gabumon said.
"I'm with ya." V-Mon said.
The three ran up as they started digivolving.
"Agumon digivolve too…GREYMON!"
"Gabumon digivolve too…GARURUMON!"
"V-Mon digivolve too…XV-MON!"
The beast turned to the dino, wolf and dragon, sending out this powerful blast out winds at them just as DemiDevimon came in and the winds died down.
"Where are my manners? Allow me to introduce you to the new and improved VenomMyotismon!" the bat said.
"VenomMyotismon?" Tai asked.
"That's right. The King of the Undead. He's the un and you're the dead." DemiDevimon said.
Hate them.
I hate both of them so much right now.
"More energy. I'm hungry." VenomMyotismon said.
"No problem, boss. There's all those people lying there waiting for ya. Remember to start your day off with a good breakfast." DemiDevimon said.
"I'll begin with a little snack." The giant said as he sucked in winds, the bat being pulled in.
"Hey, hang on! What're you doing?!" DemiDevimon yelled.
He was then pulled into VenomMyotismon's mouth and was swallowed up by the giant.
That is sick.
"He's going after everyone at the convention center." Mr. Ishida said as the giant stomped over to us, heading off to the center.
Keep it up, you guys!" Tai called.
"Digivolve!" Matt yelled.
"Go for it!" I yelled.
"You heard them; let's do it." Garurumon said.
"Yo." Greymon nodded.
"Right." XV-Mon said.
Orange, blue and gold lights hot into the air and covered our partners as they started digivolving.
"Greymon digivolve too…METALGREYMON!"
"Garurumon digivolve too…WEREGARURUMON!"
"XV-Mon digivolve too…V-DRAGOMON!"
The three Ultimates charged at VenomMyotismon, ready to battle.
"Shall we flip a coin to see who goes first?" WereGarurumon asked.
"Allow me." MetalGreymon said.
He blasted his Giga Blaster at VenomMyotismon while WereGarurumon and V-Dragomon jumped up onto the two rockets, riding them over to the giant, then jumped off as the rockets hit.
WereGarurumon used his Wolf Claw as V-Dragomon swung his blade at VenomMyotismon.
"It didn't even phase him." Matt said.
Darn it all to heck!
The werewolf climbed up the giant, jumped up and aimed a kick that sent out a blade of light at VenomMyotismon's forehead.
It cut his forehead open and these gross things, tentacles I think, came out and wrapped WereGarurumon up.
MetalGreymon flew up and cut him loose, caught the werewolf, then used his Giga Blaster one more time, sending VenomM'yotismon tumbling down to the ground.
"Did it work?" Tai asked.
"More energy! I must feed!" VenomMyotismon said as he sat up from the smoke and debris falling around him.
"That answer your question?" Matt asked.
Our partners then came in over to us.
"Matt, Tai, Daisuke. Go to the convention center and warn the others. Don't worry about us. We'll take care of this clown." WereGarurumon said.
"All right, but just watch yourselves." Matt said.
"I'll stay to help out. Go with them, Princess." Kaitoumon said as he pushed me to the van.
My brother picked me up and nearly threw me in the van as he jumped in with Matt and they both slammed their doors shut just as Mr. Ishida tore out of there as fast as he could.
Once we made it to the convention center, Tai ran in.
"Clear everyone out, now!" he yelled as we saw the others just standing around.
"Huh?" they gasped.
We all then gathered outside so the others could see VenomMyotismon fighting MetalGreymon, V-Dragomon, WereGarurumon and Kaitoumon.
"I don't know how long they can hold him off." Tai said.
"Even if we had time, we couldn't move all these people." Jim said.
"You don't understand. We can never outrun him. We have to destroy him." Gatomon said making us all look at her.
"You can count on me." Patamon said.
"Yeah, us too." Biyomon and Palmon said.
"Me three." Tentomon said.
"Hey, make that four." Gomamon said.
"Uh, mm-mm. Patamon's the only digimon I need to come with me since V-Dragomon is already there. The rest of you stay here." Gatomon said confusing everyone.
"Nothing personal, I just want all of you to save up your strength. If my plan doesn't work, you'll all be needed." She said.
"Let's do what she says. She knows these bad digimon better than anyone." Biyomon said.
"Excuse me, I don't mean to be a downer or anything, but how can any of us hope to stand up against that guy? He's bigger than most buildings." Mimi said.
"I've got a plan, like I said. Come on, Patamon, let's fly." Gatomon said as she ran off, the hamster bat following her.
"We're right behind you, Gatomon!" Tai called as he, Matt and Mr. Ishida followed.
TK, Kari and I ran after them, then the Izumi family jumped into the van with us.
"Patamon digivolve too…ANGEMON!"
"Gatomon digivolve too…ANGEWOMON!"
The two angels flew over us as they went to join in on the fight, me watching as V-Dragomon and Kaitoumon seemed to be doing fine against VenomonMyotismon, but MetalGreymon and WereGarurumon were having more trouble.
"Angels? What's going on?" Mrs. Izumi asked.
"It's kind of complicated." Tentomon said.
"They digivolved, Mom. Angemon is the fully evolved form of Patamon and Angewomon is the same for Gatomon. You see? Well, trust me on this." Izzy said.
"It's nice to have outside interests, but I hope your school work hasn't suffered." Mr. Izumi said.
"Dad, this is the fate of the planet we're dealing with. The survival of the human race. Don't worry; I can take a makeup test for anything I've missed." Izzy said.
In front of us, VenomMyotismon shot out these lights that missed the dino, werewolf, hybrid and angel as they dodged, but the buildings were hit and were vaporized.
"I sure wish I brought the cam corder." Mr. Ishida gasped.
MetalGreymon was punched down to where WereGarurumon were, both of them getting pushed back as they turned back into their Rookie forms.
"What happened to 'em?" Tai asked.
"He must have drained them of their energy." Izzy said.
VenomMyotismon was about to step on Agumon and Gabumon, but he was stopped by Angewomon and Angemon using their Celestial Arrow and Hand of Fate.
The two angels flanked V-Dragomon while Kaitoumon swooped down to the Rookies as the van stopped so we could all get out.
"I shall enjoy devouring you. Angel food in one of my favourites." VenomMyotismon said as Tai and Matt picked up their partners.
"I'm sorry, Matt. We tried." Gabumon said weakly.
"He was just too much for us." Agumon said.
Kaitoumon groaned as he fell to his knees, looking pretty banged up and I ran over to him in worry.
"You better be coming for a hug and not to heal me. It takes too much energy out of you, Princess." He said with a weak smile as one of his golden eyes closed.
I managed a smile for him and hugged him as he said.
"Why is that monster so much bigger than the other digimon?" Mr. Izumi asked.
"Search me. Hmm, I thought he was fully evolved, but he found some way of digivolving into an even higher level. Some kind of Mega-Ultimate level." Izzy said as he checked his analyzer.
"Hey, that's not fair. It's like changing the rules in the middle of the game." Matt said.
"Blondie, this is war. There are no rules." Kaitoumon said.
"You can do it, Angemon!" TK yelled.
"Go, Angewomon!" Kari called.
"Don't give up, V-Dragomon!" I called.
"Wait a minute, the prophecy. That's it. Quick, Izzy, what did it say in there about angels?" Mr. Ishida asked.
"What does the prophecy say?" Mrs. Izumi asked.
VenomonMyotismon sent out his attacks at the three angels, but they blocked them with their staff, wings and sword.
"'Angels will shoot arrows of Hope and Light at the love ones of those they have been sent to protect and a Miracle will happen'. OK, if Angemon, Angewomon and V-Dragomon ate the angels in the prophecy…" Izzy trailed off.
"So then who are the ones they've been sent to protect?" Mr. Izumi asked.
"That must mean TK, Kari and Daisuke. The angels will shoot arrows at their loved ones." Izzy said as my sister and friend yelled out to their partners to keep fighting while I listened to the talk.
"It's simple. Allow me to explain. Say I'm kind of like a Guardian Angel. Whose Guardian Angel am I? Yours and who do you love the most?" Tentomon asked.
"I was getting to that. My mom and dad, obviously." Izzy said.
"Exactly, but TK, Kari and Daisuke not only have moms and dads. They have something else too." Tentomon said.
"They have brothers." Mr. Izumi said.
"In a word; bingo." Tentomon said.
"Why would you want them shooting arrows at their loved ones? Sounds dangerous to me." Izzy said.
"They're angels, Izzy. Maybe they're like Cupid. He was sort of an angel. When he shot arrows, they were arrows of love." Mrs. Izumi said.
"He's a cherub." Kaitoumon muttered.
"Mom, isn't that a little corny?" Izzy asked.
"It may be corny, but I buy it. All we've got to do is have Angeomon and Angewomon shoot you guys with their arrows of love." Tentomon said.
"Hey, let's not be too hasty here. Besides, there are three angels and only two brothers. Who does V-Dragomon shoot?" Izzy asked.
"Doesn't the prophecy mention Miracles?" Kaitoumon asked.
Everyone gasped as they looked at me.
So then…Matt, Tai and I need to get shot by arrows?
Not sure how V-Dragomon's gonna feel about shooting me.
"What do you think?" Matt asked.
"It's worth a shot." Tai said.
"Well, looks like we're getting shot at." I sighed walking over to them as they both looked worried.
"The Crest of Miracles will keep her safe. Don't doubt her power." Kaitoumon called.
The children of Courage and Friendship sighed in frustration as they accepted this, then we all turned to our siblings.
"Kari." Tai called.
"TK." Matt called.
"You sure you wanna?" the child of Hope asked worried.
"Let's see these arrows of Hope and Light." Tai said.
"You two have got to get them to shoot at us." Matt said.
"They'll only do it if you tell them to." Tai said.
"You really want then to shoot you?" Kari asked worried.
"What if you get, like, dead or something?" TK asked.
"Never happen, right?" Matt smiled as he shared a determined look with my brother.
"Right." Tai nodded.
"OK." Kari sighed as she, TK and I all turned to our angels to tell them the plan.
"Angewomon."
"Angemon, listen up. I know this maybe sounds crazy, but shoot Matt and Tai with your arrows" TK called.
"And you need to shoot me, V-Dragomon!" I called.
The three of our Crests shot out pink, yellow and gold lights, going up to our angels as they transformed into bows and arrows.
"You too, Angewomon." The child of Light called as the three angels flew over to us.
"Dai, I love you, which is why I need to ask…HAVE YOU LOST YOUR FREAKING MIND?!" V-Dragomon yelled.
Yeah, I knew he'd act that way when he heard this.
"Just do it. My Crest will protect me. Trust me, V." I said pleading with my eyes.
He met mine, seeing how serious he was and sighed as he backed down, agreeing with my decision.
"He's right." Angemon said.
"Sounds crazy, but…" Angewomon trailed off.
"Wait, you sure about this?" Gabumon asked.
"What if that prophecy's all wrong?" Agumon asked.
"DON'T MAKE IT HARDER ON ME!" V-Dragomon screamed.
"You guys want a Miracle to happen or not?" Tai asked.
"Yeah, Miracles require a little faith." Matt said.
"Scared, Tai?" he asked my brother as they both smirked.
"No, not at all. How about you, Matt? Dai?" my brother asked.
"Terrified, but I'll get over it." I said.
"Of course not, piece of cake, but maybe I'll just…hang onto Daisuke since she already said she was scared. It might help calm her down." Matt said.
"Yeah, right. I'll do the same. She needs the support." Tai said as they both took my hands as our Crests glowed orange, gold and blue.
Looking up, the three angles knocked their arrows and aimed at us.
Meeting V-Dragomon's eyes, fear flashed in them.
I gave a smile and he returned it as it seemed to calm him down.
"One Miracle…" Angemon said.
"Coming up." Angewomon said.
"If this doesn't work, I'm killing someone." V-Dragomon said.
They released the arrows, the three white lights sailing through the air and then I felt an white hot pain piece my back, gasping as my Crest glowed to make the pain fade away and it did the same for Matt and Tai as our Crests glowed even bright than before.
Agumon was covered in orange light as Gabumon was covered in blue light and finally V-Dragomon reverted back to V-Mon as he was covered in white light.
"Agumon Warp digivolve too…WARGREYMON!"
"Gabumon Warp digivolve too…METALGARURUMON!"
"V-Mon Warp digivolve too…ULFORCEVEEDRAMON!"
After the lights faded away, we all stared in awe and amazement at the three new Mega level digimon.
"Whoa, cool." Tai said.
To be continued…
