Chapter 30: The Beginning of the End

Yolei was laying on the bed in the room. She kept trying to figure out a way out but without Hawkmon she couldn't take on Oikawa on her own. Though if it was just Mummymon and Arukenimon she could get by them without a problem. She couldn't believe the power she felt coming from Oikawa when he came back. He said one of the flowers had bloomed from the spore in Noriko's neck. Yolei sat up when she heard her door being unlocked.

"Come with me you brat."

"Why would I willingly go with you Arukenimon?"

"Because boss wants you clean and changed for today."

"What is today?"

"He said it is a surprise. Now come with me before I make you come with me."

Yolei got off the bed and walked toward Arukenimon. She decided that she will follow the orders of her for now. If she was leaving this place that would mean the others will be there too and she would have a chance to get away from them. Yolei walked into the bathroom and couldn't help but wonder if this place had hot water.

'This place has been abandoned for a while now. How am I supposed to get cleaned up?' Yolei turned the water on and while the water was coming out slowly and while it wasn't hot water it wasn't cold either. She figured she needed to be quick before it did turn cold.

"When you are finished you will change into what the boss has bought you."

Yolei didn't respond. Which didn't matter Arukenimon didn't care if she said anything or not. She quickly washed her hair and cleaned all the dirt off her skin. When the water started to turn cold she turned the water off. There were two towels left for her. She quickly wrapped her hair in one and the other around herself. Yolei looked to the door and saw the dress bag hanging there. She walked over and unzipped the bag. Her eyes widened. She was looked at a long white dress.

"A wedding dress! Is he insane?" Yolei then looked around for her own clothes. "Arukenimon must have taken them when she brought the dress in. This means I have no choice but to put it on."

At Heighton View Terrace Ken, Davis, Kari, T.K and Cody were watching as some of the kids started to just show up there. Joe, Izzy, Matt and Sora showed up.

"Where is Tai?"

"He and Mimi are keeping an eye on Noriko, Kari. They just want to be sure she will be okay."

"That is a good idea. So any idea why all the rest of these kids are starting to show up here?"

"Well this is where one of the gates are to the Digital World."

"But didn't BlackWarGreymon seal this gate Davis?"

"Well yeah but these kids don't know that. Or Oikawa for that matter. He walked away before BlackWarGreymon made the sacrifice to help us."

"And if Oikawa shows up thinking he can open the gate we can hopefully get through to the rest of those kids and save Yolei. If he is planning on going to the Digital World he will have Yolei with him."

"Great idea Ken!"

"I just want her back."

"We all do."

Ken then turned to Kari. She has been almost just as depressed as he has since Yolei has been gone. Thought no one was as upset as Hawkmon was. He wasn't walking much to anyone. Though he had to admit that Kari and himself were pretty good at hiding it from the others. He knew they also had to be strong to help those kids. To try and save them from Oikawa and the powers of Darkness. Ken also knew that Yolei was holding her own and he knew he had to as well.

"Look here come so more kids."

Ken looked and saw that two more kids had appeared. While they were showing up slowly he knew it wouldn't be long until all the kids were there along with Oikawa not far behind. Ken then felt like they were being watched. He looked up to one of the buildings but there was no one there.

"Ken is everything alright?"

"Yeah Wormmon I thought I saw something."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah I'm sure. Thanks for checking pal."

"Anytime Ken."

By the time Ken looked back up from Wormmon all the children aside from Noriko had arrived. "Noriko isn't with them."

"Maybe since Oikawa already harvested her spore he really doesn't need her anymore."

"Do you really think so Izzy?"

"Why else wouldn't she be here T.K. I mean the spores must have told these kids to be here on this day. If hers is already taken by Oikawa then she wouldn't know to be here."

"Izzy does have a point little brother. And besides with the gate closed here they don't have a chance to get away from us."

"I really hope you're right Matt."

"Yeah me too."

Just then Izzy's cell phone rang. When he answered it and he was surprised to hear his mother. She was saying that she brought him and his friends some sandwiches. Izzy hung up the phone and told his friends he would be right back. When he returned with his mother everyone thanked her for the food.

"Izzy is there anything more I can do to help?"

"Yeah mom you can go home where it is safe."

"Oh."

"I'm sorry mom. I just want you to be safe because I love you."

"I love you too. You kids stay safe okay."

"We will."

It wasn't long after Mrs. Izumi left that all the kids were standing there waiting. "Alright I say we go up to those kids and help them."

"Davis we need to wait for Oikawa. If we go up to all those kids now he may not show."

"Sure he will. His ego won't let him stay away."

"But then he might keep Yolei away."

"Oh yeah good point. Sorry Ken."

"It is alright."

Just then Oikawa appeared. "Let's go get him!"

"Davis is right."

Davis and Matt were the first to jump out of hiding. The others not to far behind. They were stopped just short of the children when Arukenimon and Mummymon jumped in front of them. Oikawa then opened up a laptop and started typing.

"Just what do you think you are doing?" Ken asked.

"We are on our way to the Digital World."

"You idiot just because that is what we are doing doesn't mean they have to know."

"Oh right, sorry."

"Leave him be Arukenimon. It doesn't matter if they know. It is too late for them to stop us."

"But BlackWar..."

"Shh Davis. Oikawa doesn't know that. You just said that a few minutes ago. When he tries to open the gate and nothing happens that is when we can make our move. He is be too confused to see it coming."

"Oh great plan T.H."

"Well the gate is almost ready to open. This is your last chance. Is there anything you want to ask me."

"What is the true purpose of the Control Spires?"

"Ah yes. You see the true need to those was to change the borders of the Digital World."

"Why would you do that?" Izzy asked.

"I wanted to weaken the Digital Worlds defenses."

"What purposed would that be to help you?" Cody asked.

"I could always open a gate to the Digital World but there was one problem. Its defenses always kept me from going into the Digital World. So now with the Control Spires and the Dark Spores I will finally enter the Digital World."

"And then what do you need with Yolei?" Kari asked.

"Ah yes Miyako. I knew I needed the last piece of the Puzzle. Arukenimon grab her and her D-3."

"Boss?"

"Do as I say!"

Arukenimon quickly returned with Yolei. Kari gasped when she saw her. She was wearing a pure white wedding dress. It was strapless and it was form fitting. It was a simple style. Though Yolei couldn't speak with a wrap around her mouth. Kari then watched as Arukenimon handed Oikawa over Yolei's D-3. Kari then felt Davis' hand go in her own. Without looking over at him she squeezed his hand back.

"Isn't she lovely. I thought this was the best way for her to look. For she will be the one to officially open the gate and as my bride."

Ken could only glare at Oikawa. He could only hope that BlackWarGreymon's sacrifice would be enough to keep Oikawa out of the Digital World. Ken then look towards Yolei who was already looking at him. He could see the sadness in her eyes. He knew that when the gate didn't open the others would go for Oikawa and the kids and he would go for Yolei.

"Alright my little children are you ready to go to the Digital World?"

"We sure are Mr. Oikawa."

"And are you ready to go Miyako?"

All she could do was growl at him. Yolei then saw that the screen on the computer started to glow. She knew that could only mean one thing that he got the gate to the Digital World to appear. Oikawa then turned to her.

"Arukenimon raise her hands to the computer. I will then put her D-3 in her hands and then we will be on our way."

"Dude does he really think that is going to work?"

"He must Davis just look at how confident he is."

Oikawa then put Yolei's D-3 in her hands. Suddenly behind them a large gate opened and it was nothing but a bright light. "Yes it worked."

"It actually opened?"

"But how if BlackWarGreymon sealed it."

"It must have to do with Yolei. He knew that no matter what she would be able to open it."

"Come children follow me."

Oikawa picked Yolei up and ran towards the gate. The children were right behind him. Arukenimon and Mummymon were trying to catch up to him. Davis and the others took off towards them too but they just made it through before it completely closed. Though Matt, Izzy and Sora didn't make it in time.

"We were too late. They are on their own now."

"Sora it will be okay. We need to get to Tai, Mimi and Joe."

"Matt is right. Maybe, just maybe we can figure out a way to the Digital World ourselves."

A gate opened into a darkened space. Once Oikawa and the Children were through he put Yolei down. The children had started to run and play when one child fell and started to cry. Oikawa then ran up to the boy.

"What is the matter? Why don't you go play with the other children?"

"This place is wrong. This isn't the Digital World."

"What? Of course it is. Why would you say such a thing?"

"Because this is wrong. It is all wrong."

Then the darkness of the area lifted to reveal that they child was right. It wasn't the Digital World. He heard Arukenimon and Mummymon fighting and when he turned to look he saw that the Digidestined had followed him.

"Where are we? Where did I bring us if this isn't the Digital World?" He then turned to Yolei. He went up to her and removed the wrap from around her mouth. "What did you do Miyako? You were supposed to bring us to the Digital World."

"Ha like I would do that willingly. I don't care who you are, you are not turning the Digital World and the Real World to darkness. I won't let you."

"You bitch."

Oikawa then slapped Yolei hard enough to have her lose her balance. Before she even hit the ground someone had caught her. When she looked to see who it was she was met with blue eyes.

"Ken?"

"It's okay Yolei."

Oikawa looked down at the two teens. "You had one job Miyako. Help me rule the Digital World."

"I would never rule with you."

Oikawa turned to the kids who had all started crying. Ken knew this was his chance to get Yolei away from him. When he returned to the others Kari immediately threw her arms around her friend. All they kept hearing were the children crying and Oikawa asking what he did wrong and asking where they were if they weren't in the Digital World?

"So where are we Yolei?"

"I don't know Cody. When he had Arukenimon force my hand to the computer screen all I could think about is him not getting to the Digital World. I didn't know we would end up in a completely different space."

"HA HA HA you are smarter than I thought Miyako. You may have kept me out of the Digital World but you couldn't save these children."

"That voice, it sounded like mine."

"Of course it did Oikawa. I have been using your body as a host until I was able to be at my full strength."

"Using my...what do you mean?"

"Don't you remember? It was when the Digital World was shown in the Real World in the sky. You were so far into your our own sadness and darkness I knew you were perfect."

"My own sadness? You mean you used my sadness for the loss of Hiroki?"

"Of course I did. And now that I am strong enough I no longer need your body."

Just then Oikawa grabbed his stomach in pain. Energy shot of out of his body and landed right across from him. There stood a double of him. The double then turned to the crying children. Just then the real Oikawa fell to the ground unconcious.

"Oh yes keep crying. It won't save you."

"Stay away from those kids!" Davis yelled.

"Don't just stand there you fools! Attack them!"

"Oh yes right. Snake Bandage."

"Acid Mist."

The double Oikawa then started to harvest the Dark Flowers from the other kids as they bloomed. Each time Davis and the others tried to get to the kids to stop him Arukenimon and Mummymon would stand in their way. Double Oikawa then turned to the Digidestined with the most evil smirk.

"Now then, allow me to reveal my true self." he said now in a voice that no longer sounded like Oikawa.

"Wait I know that voice."

"Gatomon?"

"That is Myotismon."

"Very good my pet. But I am not the Myotismon you remember."

"Dude look he is transforming."

"Yeah but into what. Myotismon or VenomMyotismon?"

"T.K you don't think?"

"I hope not Kari."

"Actually you can call me MaloMyotismon."

MaloMyotismon then reached out and grabbed Arukenimon. "Master what are you doing? I have been your faithful servant."

"What do you think I am doing?"

"I don't know."

"Oh but I think you do."

It was then that he started to attack Arukenimon. Mummymon kept trying to get to her but MaloMyotismon was able to keep him away. When it came to his last attack the Digidestined heard him ask her what she really wanted at that point. They could hear her begging for him not to do what he was about to do. With a final smile to her he attacked and then she was destroyed. The Digidestined could only look away in fear.

"Arukenimon? You killed her."

"I only did what she was thinking. She wanted to be as far away from me as she could be. So I granted her wish."

"I will kill you myself. I will avenged my dear Arukenimon."

"You think you can beat me?"

"I know I can. Snake Bandage."

"You are weak. Play time is over. Crimson Mist!"

The red smoke went all around Mummymon. It seemed at though the mist completely disintegrated Mummymon. Yolei and Kari put their arms around themselves. Hoping it would somehow help the feeling of dread all around them. Cody was saying to himself that it was a horrible nightmare he wanted to wake from. Even T.K was talking about how he had never been so afraid before.

"Kari I think it is time for me to Digivolve."

"You can't."

"What why?"

"I won't let you fight. I can't lose you. I can't watch you get get destroyed."

"Yolei?"

"Hawkmon I just got back to you. I can't lose you now."

"But Yolei."

"Come on guys. We need to be strong."

"But Davis."

"No buts T.K! We need to fight. Come on guys. I know you are afraid. I am too but I know what we need to do. We need to push our fears aside!"

"Davis I will fight him alone."

"What dude you can't."

"What why do you think I will lose?"

"Well maybe?"

"Davis you are the one talking about pushing our fears aside."

"You're right ExVeemon! Alright think of this as a soccer game and it is you against the goalie. So you see what I am saying?"

"Nope not a clue."

"Go beat the bad guy!"

"Oh well you could have just said that." ExVeemon then turned to attack MaloMyotismon. At first it seemed ExVeemon couldn't make a hit on MaloMyotismon. Davis started encouraging him and it wasn't until then that he felt stronger. Then suddenly every attack started to hit MaloMyotismon but it still wasn't enough. ExVeemon went in for another attack when MaloMyotismon looked like he was going to go in for a defensive attack.

"Mental Illusion!"

Suddenly there was a bright light and the Digidesined had to close their eyes. When they opened their eyes they weren't where they were before. But they were seeing things that they wanted to see.

T.K couldn't believe it. He had just walked back into his apartment and he saw his father and Matt both sitting at the table.

"Welcome home T.K."

"Well it is about time son. We were going to start eating without you."

"Wow everyone is together! It has been too long since we all ate together." T.K then took a seat next to Matt.

"T.K."

"Patamon you're just in time for dinner."

"T.K don't you see that this isn't real?"

"What do you mean? Of course it is."

When T.K looked towards his family again the image was slowly starting to disappear. He couldn't believe it. Patamon was right. It was just a trick. A trick by MaloMyotismon. It was then that he knew he had to fight. Suddenly through the white of the light Raidramon came through.

"So are you ready to fight T.K?"

"Yes I am!"

Cody couldn't believe it. He was in the Digital World with his father. He was holding his hand showing him all around and all the Digimon. Though the one Digimon he was looking for he couldn't find. He really wanted his father to meet his partner. He was telling his father all about his adventures and his new friends he got out of the process. He didn't just have Yolei as a friend anymore but a bunch more he could rely and confide in.

"Cody."

"There are you Armadillomon. There is someone I want you to meet."

"Cody."

"Armadillomon this is my father. Dad this is Armadillomon."

"Cody your father isn't really here with you."

"Of course he is. He is standing right here."

When Cody turned to look at his father he was gone. He couldn't help the tears that started to fall. Armadillomon walked up to his partner. No not just his partner, his friend.

"Cody I'm sorry. I know you really miss your father and MaloMyotismon is using that against you."

"How dare he! MaloMyotismon will pay for this."

Just then Cody could see a figure coming closer to him through the light. When it came through it was Flamedramon. "Are you with us Cody?"

"You bet I am!"

Kari was sitting under a tree on a bright sunny day. She was watching kids and Digimon playing like it was normal to see everyday. She couldn't help but smile. There was finally peace and no fighting what so ever in sight. She leaned back against the tree and took a deep breath.

"Isn't this great Gatomon? No fighting and Digimon are everywhere you look playing with their partners."

"No Kari this isn't great. This is all a lie."

"A lie? Don't be silly Gatomon."

"I can see through Myotismon's lies Kari. No matter what version he is in. I can see through them. This is all a lie."

Just then all the kids and Digimon disappeared from her view but not long after they did Davis came running through the white light around her.

"Kari please we need you."

"Davis. I didn't see..."

"Kari it's okay. You weren't the only one affected. T.K and Cody are already back and ready to fight. How about you?"

"I am Davis. I am ready."

"I knew you would be." Davis gave her a quick kiss.

Ken was walking through a desert in the middle of a sandstorm. He didn't know where he was walking to but he knew he had to get out of this storm. He stopped when he saw something up head. He couldn't make it out but it looked like a tall tower standing in the distance. As he got a little closer he could finally make it out as a Control Spire. The storm finally stopped and he could finally see the entire scene in front of him.

"That is the Digimon Emperor on that Spire."

"Now that we finally caught you Digimon Emperor we will show you all the pain that you caused us."

Ken watched in horror as each Digimon there attacked the Emperor. After the last attack hit the Digimon Emperor then disappeared into peices. The Spire and the Digimon around it too then disappeared. Ken suddenly started to see bubbles everywhere. When he looked back in front of himself he saw a new figure standing there.

"Sam is that you?"

"It's me little brother. I am here to help you."

"Help me?"

"Yes. You can stay here with me forever and I can help you forget this darkness."

"Will you really Sam? Even after everything I have done?"

"Yes I mean it."

Ken blinked back tears and when he looked again Sam was gone and Wormmon was there instead. "Where did Sam go?"

"Sam was never here Ken."

"Yes he was. He was right there where you are. He said he would help me."

"But you already have others helping you."

Ken turned to the new voice. "Yolei?"

"We are helping you Ken. You are with us, your friends, and we will always keep helping you."

"But Sam..."

"Ken I know you miss Sam but you were only seeing him because of your guilt. MaloMyotismon knows that and was using it against you." Ken looked back to Wormmon who was moving closer to his partner. "Sam can still help you Ken." He then looked back at Yolei. She then put her hand over his heart. "He can help you here. I will help you whenever you need it."

Ken just looked at her. He then put his hand over hers that was over his heart. He smiled at her. "I love you."

"I love you too. I may have been afraid to fight before but I am ready to now. But I need you by my side. What do you say?"

"I'm ready. This ends now. What do you say pal?"

"I say let's go join the fight."

"You got it."

Just then Ken looked and he was back with Davis and the others. In front of him were ExVeemon, Raidramon, and Flamedramon. He heard T.K ask how he got all three of Veemon's Digivolutions out and he heard Davis reply saying that he wanted ExVeemon to be stronger and not fighting alone and the Digi-eggs activated.

"So you weren't affected by his attack?"

"No. I think it was because I was fighting against him and showing that I wasn't afraid of him."

"And you Yolei?"

"I think I somehow protected myself with my powers but his attack was so fast I couldn't get to all of you."

"Hey think of it this way with you both on the outside you were able to get us back to reality."

"T.K is right." T.K looked to Kari. "So what do you say we join the fight." Kari then held her Digivice in her hands praying for Gatomon to be stronger. T.K, Cody and Yolei followed suit. Soon all their Digimon were Digivolving to their Champion and Armor Digivoluions. Gatomon and Patamon were also able to Digivolve to Ulimate. Ken allowed Wormmon Digivolve to Stingmon. Each Digimon started to attack MaloMyotismon. Every attack hit him and it seemed like he was weakening. MaloMyotismon stood from the last attack.

"So you think this will be the end of me. Think again! Crimson Mist!"

Before the attack could hit the Digimon and Digidestined the Champion Digimon DNA Digivolved. Shakkoumon sucked up the attack. MaloMyotismon wasn't expecting this Digimon to stop this attack. Imperialdramon then attacked and sent MaloMyotismon flying. But when the smoke cleared there was a hole is the dimension they were in. The Digidestined ran through the hole and they realized they were in the Digital World. When they looked back to their Digimon who followed them it was just their DNA Digivolved forms with them.

"Looks like only the strongest followed us."

"Yolei is right. The power to have the Digimon use all their Digivolutions must only remain in that other dimension."

"I would like to thank you Digidestined. I am now in the Digital World where I am stronger than all of you. And now I will take over both worlds and there is nothing you can do to stop me!"

Kari then put her hands on her head. "The darkness...it's coming...I can feel it."

"Kari put yourself together. I won't let anything happen to you."

"Davis..."

"You gotta believe me Kari."

"Look!"

Davis and Kari then looked to where Cody was pointing. MaloMyotismon then opened another hole. In that hole the Earth was in it's place. MaloMyotismon then raised his arms and a dark smoke started to go up to the Earth. All three of the Digimon then went to attack MaloMyotismon hoping to stop him but the two separate heads on his shoulders attacked. Three balls of dark energy went to each Digimon and they fell to the ground.

"Well it looks like your friends will be unconscious to watch me take over both of these worlds. So sorry."

All the Digidestined could do was watch as the Real World started to get covered in Darkness. 'He stronger than he was before when we fought him,' T.K thought. 'We need a miracle to stop him.'

Okay there is chapter 30. I can't believe there is only one more chapter after this one! I almost don't want it to end.
