Shadows of the past

Chapter 29

From what remains

Takato PoV: Ah my head, it feels like I got ran over by a Locomon. I open my eyes to see a wooden ceiling of an unfamiliar room. Ryu what happen? "I'm not sure, Ruby seen to gives off an extreme amount of mana." He said. I heard the door open as Rika and Hikari came in. "Takato/papa!" They shout as they came to my side. Hikari jump on mee to pull me into a hug that I gladly return. "Don't cry kiddo I'm here." I said as I comfort her. I turn to Rika. "How long was I out?" I ask. "About 2 days, your mana was all use up, your lucky your not dead Goggle head." She said as she sat next to me. "What happen with the invasion, with that flash?" I ask worry. "It was Ruby she stop it all." She said. That right, she saw Pyrrha die and let out that light from her eyes. "How did she pull that off?" I ask. "Uncle Qrow explain it to us. Turn out me and Ruby come from a bloodline call the silver eyes warriors. We have the power to turn Grimm to stone or in some cases destroy them. I was able to tap into this power when I unlock Sakuyamon sliver mode." She said.

"And Ruby must have tap into her." I said. "Yeah, she turn that dragon Grimm you were fighting into a statue." She said. "What about the others, are they ok?" I ask. She let out a sigh. "I wish I could say that Takato. After the flash, we went to get you guys from the tower. Not long after that Weiss's dad and Jerico mom show up and took them back to Atlas. Not to mention when Blake came to, she ran off to who know where with Ryo, Alice, Koga and Sven on her tail. Argo went to see if she can find out anything. Yang is depressed as hell about losing her arm and worst her will to fight. And worst of it all, Kenji betray us!" She shout. "He what?" I ask. "Turn out Cinder wasn't the one in charge, Kenji mom was, whoever she is. And get this, his sister and his pals are Tamers too." She said. "Others Tamers? Did Erika knew about this?" I ask. "No, she claim that she wasn't ware of them, I doubt that thou." She said.

"It also turns out that Angela partner Vupimon is Renamon sister." Rika said as Renamon appear. "You still need to explain that for us." Rika said. "I thought she was dead, it was a few months before I met you Rika. Our village was attack whil I was gathering food. The village was wipe out by the time I return. I believe I was the only survivor. To believe Vupimon was alive all this time and is now our enemy. What has happen to you little said as she look out the window. Rika put her hand on her shoulder. "You didn't know." Rika said. "It just another thing to deal with I guess." I said as I got up. "Did you find any sign of Pyrrha?" I ask as I got dress. "Only her crown, we gave it to Jaune since they were pretty close." She said. "I never got to tell him how I felt about him." A voice said. We turn to see Pyrrha spirit sitting in the corner. "She was at the tower looking over you and Ruby. So far, only us and our Digimon can see her." Rika said. I went over to Pyrrha and got on my hands and knees.

"I'm so sorry Pyrrha. It I was stronger I could have save you." I cry as I felf a her hand on mine. "I don't blame you, I did my duty." She said as she smile at me. "That you did, now I must do mine." I said as I got up. "Your going to sent her to the soul society?" Rika ask. "I have to, you know what will happen to souls that stay for to long in our world." I said. "Can I say goodbye to the others?" Pyrrha ask. "But they cannot see you." Renamon said. "I have something for that, I just some time to get it ready." I said. "Alright, I'll go chck on the others." Rika said. Rika PoV: Takato headed out back to speak to Ruby and Yang dad Taiyang. I look around to see everyone was taking it easy since everything that happen. I look to see Jaune looking at Pyrrha crown. "Looking at it won't bring her back you know." I said as he sigh. "I know, It just I wanted to be the shield to protect my friends and yet I fail to protect the one who was the most important to me." He said.

"Oh Jaune." Pyrrha said sadly. "Don't think it your fault vomit boy. Pyrrha knew the risk of being a huntress. If I could, i would take her place." I said. "Then you be the one who dead." He said. "Maybe so, but at least those I care about would live. That what Pyrrha did for us. She die so we could live. If she was here, she would say don't let this stop you keep moving forward." I said. "That does sound like something I would say." She said. Jaune face harden as he got up. "Your right, Pyrrha would tell me off if she saw me like this. I want to honor what she fought for. Thank you Rika. Come on Ludomon, I got an idea." He said as they walk away. "That was real kind of you." Pyrrha said. "He just need a kick to the pants." I said as I head out side, I saw Ruby on the porch. "You ok?" I ask as I sat next to her. "I been better." She said. "It ok to cry Ruby, everyone need to every once in awhile." I said. She look to me.

"What is there to cry about, My team is broke up, our sister lost her arm, my boyfriend is the enemey, and worst of all, Penny and Pyrrha are dead! Why! Why, did this have to happen." She said as she started to sob. I pull her into a hug. "It okay sis, Kenji gave me a message for you. He said he truly do love you." I said. "He does?" She ask. I nod. "Yes, as for Penny and Pyrrha, we'll find who kill and make them pay I promise." I said as I wipe her tears. "Thanks you." She said as we saw Takato talking to Taiyang. Takato was using his sword to crave something into the yard. What are you up to Goggle head? Takato PoV: "You sure this won't kill my glass?" Taiyang ask me. "I'm sure Mr. Xiao long." I said as I continue to crave on the ground. "Please call me Tai, man it still hard to believe my late wife got sent to another world, got remarried and had another kid." He said as he look to the girls. "It how the world works sometimes, that should do it." I said. On the ground was a large channeling circle. "So, what is it?" He ask.

"Something to give us some closure." I said as I look to Rika. "Rika, could you go get everyone please." I call out to her. "Sure, I'm on it." She said as sshe went inside. A few minutes later, she came out with everyone. Even Yang was out of bed for this. "So, what you need Goggles?" Zoey ask. "And did you do to our yard?" Yang ask. "This is a channeling circle to a spirit arte Muzet taught me." I said. "Spirit arte?" Hiro ask. "That right, from what she told me, it will let us see any spirit in the area." I said. "So, why set this up now?" Keisuke ask. "Because there someone who need to speak to us." I said. "So how odes it work?" Ruby ask. I look to Pyrrha. "Go stand in the middle." I said as she move into place. I stab my sword into the circle. "By the power of the great spirits, grant us the gift to see those who has passed on from this life. Spirit realization!" I shout as the circle glow blue and there was a flash of light. When it clears everyone was shock. "Pyrrha!" They shout.

"Hello everyone." She said. "But how?" Ren ask. "She been with us since the flash on the tower. I thought it would be best to let her say goodbye before I sent her off." I said. "Sent her where?" Nora ask. "One of my duties as a soul reaper is to send the souls of the departed to the afterlife. If I don't over time Pyrrha will become a hollow." I said. "Is there no other way?" Biyomon ask. "Sorry, no so please keep it quick." I said. Pyrrha look to her team. "Ren, Nora, you have been some of the truest and kindest friends I ever have. It was an honor to fight along side care of each other." She said. "We will." Ren said as Nora cries into his shoulder. Pyrrha look to Jaune. "Jaune, meeting you was the greatest moment of my life. You were always so kind and sweet, you put every one else over yourself, it because of that that I fell in love with you. I just wish I could told you sooner." She said. That when Jaune did something we didn't expect of him. He kiss Pyrrha. Damn go Jaune, I'm proud of that dork.

When they part he look at her. "I love you too Pyrrha, I wish I could have realize it sooner. I'm sorry, guess this is goodbye." He said. "I never did like goodbye, I prefer see you later." She said. "Then see you later Pyrrha." He said. "See you everyone." She said as everyone try to keep it together. Pyrrha look to me. "I'm ready." She said. I reach into my coat and pull out a note and hand it to her. "What this?" She ask. "It a letter of introduction and a vouch for you. I call in a few favors I have on the other side. Once you cross over, head to the Seireitei, it a massive dome, you can't miss. There, speak to one of the Gatekeepers and show them the letter, He'll should call a certain white hair runt I know to help you get settle." I said. "You sure?" She ask. I smirk. "Oh he will, he owned me big time for saving his girlfriend, so are you ready?" I ask as I draw my sword. "I am." She said. "Seeya later Pyrrha." I said as I tap her fore head and she turn into a blue ball of light. She floated to the sky and disappear. "She gone." I said. "I hope we can see her again someday." Ruby said.

"Why wait you can join her now Hellfire!" A voice shout suddenly as we heard gunfire. "Get down!" I shout as we all drop to the ground as gunfire shot over us. When it end we got up to look at who did that. It was a tall man in a dark black pine suit with a black coat hanging from his shoulders. His face was cover by a black wolf mask with a white horn and long hair. There were a pair of bat wings on his back and a tommy gun in his hand. "A Digimon." Ludger said. I held up my D-arc. "[Astamon ultimate level demon man Digimon. A vile crime lord that will gun down anyone in his way with his hellfire attack.]" I said. "Damnit right now, none of us are in any shape to fight." Hiro said. He right were still recovering from Beacon. "Quite the service you kids did for your friend. Fitting for a weakling like her." Astamon said taunting Pyrrha. "What." Jaune said anger by this. "I mean, the red head broad die because she was weak. It the rule of the world, only the strong will live." Astamon said.

Jaune step forward. "You stup the fuck up!" He shout at the crime lord. "He let out a whistle. "A wise guy we have here, upset about What I said about the weakling?" He ask. "Pyrrha didn't die because she was weak, She did because she did was right." Jaune said. He clench his fist tightly. "And I'm not gonna let you mock her death you bastard!" He shout. "Oh and how are you going to do that kid?" Astamon ask. "I'm gonna be strong for Pyrrha sake. I won't let anymore of my friends die. I will protect everyone!" He shout. "And I will be his shield tto do this!" Ludomon shout as one of Jaune cards glow blue. "Do it Jaune." I said. "Right, let go Ludomon." He siad. "With pleasure." He said. "Digi-modify Matrix Digivolvtion activated!" He shout as he swipe the card through his D-arc.

Matrix Digivolvtion

Ludomon warp digivolve to Raijinludomon

Raijinludomon was as tall as Astamon, he was cover in gold armor with blue lightning bolts edges. His shields were on his shoulders with the kanji for thunder on them. He has e blue horns on his head. Hiro check his D-arc. "[Raijinludomon ultimate level weapon Digimon. He'll protect what he beileve in with his messar arms and lighting buster attacks]" He said. "Take him down Raijinludomon!" Jaune shout. "Understood." The Digimon said.

Raijinludomon vs Astamon

"Big deal that you Digivolve, let see if your strong enough to handle this Hellfire!" Astamon shout as he open fire on the weapon Digimon. Raijinludomon was able to dodge all of the shots. Astamon growl as he then grins and look at us. "Shit!" I shout as the gangster shot at us. Raijinludomon jump infront of us and form a lighting barrier to protect us. Raijinludomon then jump and kick Astamon in the chest. "You will not harm them Messar arms!" He shout as he shot his arms off as they slam into Astamon causing his gun to fly into the air. Raijinludomon direct his arms to shatter the gun and return to him. "My gun!" Astamon shout. "Finish it." Jaune said. "Right Lighting buster!" Raijinludomon shout as he shot a lighting beam from his claws. The attack slams into Astamon causing him to cries out as he was blasted into digital dust. Only a small crater was left. Raijinludomon turn back to normal. "Well, that was a thing." Zoey said.

"Ah sorry about the mess Mr. Xiao long." Jaune said nervously. "No it alright, I was planning to redo the yard anyway. Who knows, maybe I can finally put in that pool, you already dug the hole for me." Tai joke. "That dad for you." Yang said. "Let head inside, we need to talk." I said as we went inside. One we all sat down except for Yang who went back up stairs. "So what the problem?" Nora ask. "Our next plan of action, from what we know about Cinder, Angela and Kenji, they are most likely in Mistral." Rika said. "You want to find them." Ren said. "We do, we still have no clue who they are working for or why. They destroy Beacon, it has to be more then just ffor the power Cinder stole." I said. "So, were heading to this misty place to beat them up, cool let go." Rina said. "No, only myself, Rika, Elize, Ruby, Jaune, Ren and Nora are going. We'll draw les attention if a smaller group goes." I said. "What about the rest of us?" Zubamon ask. "The rest of you are staying here until Yang can get back on her feet." I said. "What for, blondie can take care of herself." Zoey said.

"No, she can't my sister lost more then just her arm at Beacon. She lost her confidence and her will to fight. That not an easy wound to heal from. Please look after her." Rika said with a concern tone. "Don't worry we will." Keisuke said. "There also the fact Astamon attack us here, I'm worry they will go after the others." I said. "And with the CCT down. there isn't a way to contact them." Milla said. I turn to Ludger. "Ludger I need you Milla and Jude to take the girls back to Spyros." I said. "You sure?" He ask. "It what best." I said. Hikari grab my leg." No, Papa I want to stay with you and Mama." She beg. "We know sweetie, but it too dangerous right now. We don't want to see you get hurt." Rika said as she hug her. "Do you promise to come back?" Hikari ask. "We do." I said. "When do we leave?" Jaune ask. "As soon as possible." I said. The next day our teams were outside. "Are we set?" I ask. "We are next stop Mistral." Ruby said. "Then let get this shit started." I said as we started our journey. Normal PoV: Erika walk toward the woods behind the house. There she saw a man in white roges.

"Everything is going as you said." Erika said. "Yes, the current danger is growing stronger. The remaining crest bearers must awaken soon if we have any hope of stopping what coming." He said. "It will be difficult since several of them are on the side of darkness." She said. "True, there are 3 group of Tamers, one thta are the guardians of light. One that are on the side of evil and one that aid the light from the shadows. In the end they must become one." He said. "I hope so Gennai for all of state." Erika said feeling regret for lying to her friends.
