Ominous Flame

Chapter 50

Author Notes: Is it sad to say I was hoping this story would be done before chapter 50? I really didn't think this through as per usual. Granted I don't regret the fun twists and turns i've been writing but damn...

Can't i have an idea that doesn't drain me of my time and energy by having a million chapters lol? No? Fine then. Well you all are just gonna have to sit with me and suffer. I do not own Digimon.

3rd P.O.V

"We got them Lord Cherubimon! All of the little darlings are under lock and key in the dungeons~" It had been so long since the celestial digimon smiled down at her with triumph. With pride. Soon all of this terrible fighting would be over.

The paradise they had been dreaming of was on the horizon. 'Very good. Where is Saldomon?' She smiled as she rested her hands behind her back. "I ordered him to watch over our new prisoners. We may have those wonderful barriers, but those brats have shown to be trouble when they want to."

It was a satisfying answer as her master hummed. That pleased gleam still encompassed his eyes. Which meant this was the perfect time for her to ask. "My lord?" His yellow gaze turned towards her, his hand waved.

Giving her permission. "With victory within our grasp, where and when is it that I should tell my fans to move? They've been loyal to me, and to you, and wish to move into your territory." These days the world had resembled cheese with all the fractal code being collected.

Though many offered their love and support for her, she constantly received messages asking where they could find safety. Where they could enjoy their new lives in peace. And though she's manipulated many of them to aid her in the past, she did care.

"It matters not. Nothing will within the next few weeks." Her eyes furrowed, her stomach coiled with anxiety. "W-what will happen within a few weeks?" He mouth twisted, smirking down as his long winged fingers played about on his throne.

A laugh escaped as he turned to the ceiling. "In a few weeks this world will be destroyed. All of the fractal code at my disposal to reform this world and everyone within it." At that the water nymph found herself frozen.

Fear coated her face. "B-but what about our minions? You swore that they would be able to find prosperity under your rule." He had promised. All those digimon in the forest, all of her fans that she visited throughout the digital while on tour, gathering fractal code.

If they die, they revert to a digiegg. Essentially getting a new chance at life. But just because they're able to be reborn doesn't necessarily mean they're the same digimon. Their personalities could be different. It's why there were so many forms they could take.

Different paths meant new evolutions and powers. With slight feelings of deja vu or nostalgia as a way to tap into previous strengths. So many times in the past she heard a soft voice plead in her ear. Telling her to stop.

To stop obeying Cherubimon and help the children. But she ignored it. Because he was her master with a wonderful cause. He promised a future that would be akin to paradise, where digimon were equal. But now...

"They will, but they will need to be remade. We need perfect digimon for our paradise. Digimon that will obey my law without question." Her mind was shattering as she grasps the true intentions behind this war. She was told that Seraphimon and Ophanimon were conspiring against him.

That the rights of the humanoid digimon abused the rights of the beast ones. And that they had attacked him. Sparking the war and the onslaught of fighting. She and her fellow warriors were made with the intentions of ending the war.

Of ridding all that defied their rule. They would take the fractal code and remake the world into something better. "Alright. If that's it, then. May I be dismissed my lord?" Yet hearing him say that he would destroy all of those in this world and remake them in his design made her think of Saldomon.

"You are. Tell Saldomon I need him for a new job." He was created against his will to be Cherubimon's puppet. His feelings and form ripped away in agony. He was going to do that to everyone? Did that include her? "Yes my lord." Would that include Mercurymon?

What about Grumblemon and Arbormon? For the first time since her creation she felt lost and afraid. As she left his room, a shudder went through her, the voice was back. Whispering gentle words that she didn't want to hear.

Shagumon stared at the group with suspicious eyes. "Before my master arrives I got a question for all of you-but more so you boy-who the hell are you? Why does seeing you give me headaches?" Red shifted to each of them, but the moment they laid on Koichi's they stayed there.

"We're your friends!" Tommy was the one who piped up first. His small hands grabbed onto the bars, squeezing with all of his might. "Friends?" At that the warrior of flames scoffed. "Please, if that was the case I wouldn't have been ordered to kill you. Try again." And try again they did.

Nearly all of them in unison(except for the one he had been staring at before) spoke out. Shouting for his attention. "Shut up!" Well they got it. As he blasted a small ball of black and purple flames their way.

He rolled his eyes as they shrieked. His flames weren't THAT hot. "Are you fucking crazy!? You said you wanted answers!" His turned his dry, deadpanned expression towards JP. "I didn't mean all at once. If I didn't have a headache before I certainly have one now."

It shouldn't be that hard to demand answers. 'Th-the answers are already inside you Shagumon.' All of them turned towards Ophanimon. No one could see her with the mask that covered her expression. But she was awake. She was alive. The question was for how much longer.

"Again with the cryptic bullshit. You know lady I'm getting sick of you not being straight with me. One minute I'm going on a rampage and the next I'm able to talk and shift forms. And now with headaches and dreams that make no sense." Shagumon's summoned flames.

Embers that burned darker, more malicious. "I think you're due for another punishment!" They danced around his fingers as he readied himself. "Leave her alone!" Just as he fired Koichi stretched his hand out. His own powers launched from him. Blocking the attack from hitting the damaged celestial.

Everyone found themselves surprised, Shagumon especially as he took in the dark magic that swirled around the human's finger tips. "I'm not letting you do this Takuya." He hadn't intended on striking Ophanimon with anything lethal.

It would've barely tickled her if it made contact. "You really want to start something?" Yet despite being encaged in Cherubimon's sealed prison, Koichi was able to use his own element to counter his. Wait...why does Shagumon automatically know his name? He winced as his head pounded.

His gloved hand reached up, gripping onto his hair. However there was nothing he could say or do about it as he heard footsteps slowly approaching. "Don't say anything about this." Within a flash, the group found themselves wide eyed as flames encircled his being.

"Slide evolution-Saldomon." From man to beast black fire trickled. Just in time for Ranamon to appear, her cheeks puffed out as she slowed her breath. "There you are. Lord Cherubimon needs you now Saldomon." The beast of flames hissed.

A harsh, hot gust spread throughout the room. Yet the chimera digimon obeyed as he extended his wings. With heavy, ground shaking steps, he left the room. Giving Ranamon the chance to breathe. Still ignoring the voice.
