EL Digital Saviors 14

Here it is readers the final battle with the Digidestined VS Devimon! Can our heroes extinguish his evil or will they be corrupted by his dark power? Read on and find out! Rated the same as before K+ for mild swearing, moderate Digimon on human/Digimon on Digimon action violence, and rude/crude humor. I own nothing since Digimon is owned by Bandai/Toei Company/Saban and Elfen Lied belongs to Lynn Okomoto. Just remember readers I'm hopelessly insane. Also here are the pairings which include obviously Kouta/Lucy-Kaede, Patamon/Salamon, Kanae/Alex, Renamon/Tentomon, Mayu/Nana, Jason/Yuka, Aiko/Junpei-JP, and finally Kazemon-Zephyrmon/Bando. Here it begins... The start of the battle for humanity's future has begun as Dance with the Digital Devil Part 2!

-chapter 14 - Dance with the Digital Devil Part 2

When we last left our heroes they were pinned down on the beach around the city's lighthouse due to Devimon's Touch of Evil. But the sadistic demon type wasn't through yet in fact he was just beginning their descent into servitude to him. Appearing from out of the overcast clouds were numerous giant jet black colored metallic of jet black energy burst from the gears and blasted the group of youths. ''My Black Gears will further corrupt your precious Digimon accomplices into my powerful slaves! The rest of you will just be their tamers of destruction! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHHH!''

The evil demon type let out a maniacal evil laugh enjoying the pain and suffering he was inflicting on his victims. Just for amusement he increased the power of his Touch of Evil via the Black Gears. The energy blasts got even bigger as Devimon sneered, to an outside observer one might think Devimon was enjoying the suffering he was putting the Digidestined through. Well they'd pretty much be right. "FEEL MY TOUCH OF EVIL! LET IT YOU CORRUPT YOU ALL! DOWN TO YOUR VERY SOUL!" Devimon shouted over his hapless victims.

Far from bending under some evil digital tyrant's powerful whims Lucy forced herself up fighting against the might of the power increase the Touch of Evil received from the Black Gears. ''Ahhh... ARGH! N... NEVER!" The pinkette screamed as she fought Devimon's corruptive Touch of Evil. Using her vectors she forced his corruptive energy off her body.

Once free she went about slowly but powerfully forcing his attack away with her powerful telekinetic vector hands. It was a show of force unlike none of her teammates had ever seen before! Her vector abilities must be extremely powerful much more than they thought previously. With Devimon in a state of surprise he let up on his Touch of Evil attack. In short the power it had on the group ceased.

"No... I refuse! I'm not evil! None of us are... Least of all me, I've fought my darkness I won't let it poison me!" The pinkette growled out glaring at the evil devil based Digimon.

"Impossible! Every Diclonius hates human beings how can you be so different!? How can someone of your kind be without deep dark evil desires, no insecurities, hatred, or psychological weaknesses! It can't be!" Devimon sputtered shocked how one of these horned mutants can love humans so much instead of despising them. It was impossible! This girl should be hating humans for how horridly her kind was being treated... especially at the institute! Here she was instead defending them, living with them like a friend! Humans and Diclonii could never be friends just as Digimon and Diclonii couldn't be friends!

Again Devimon mentioned the word Diclonius? What did it mean the group wondered? Was their good friend Lucy one of these supposedly violent humanoids?

The second the rosette shoved off the energy coming from the Black Gears, it was a small distraction but just enough for the Guardromon to send off a Guardian Barrage at the menacing gears destroying them outright. With Devimon's power booster destroyed and him being distracted everyone by sheer force of will fought off his Touch of Evil and recovered back to full strength. "Well ya just met one wiseguy! Guys I think we've found our second wind all together attack him full on!'' Kohta shouted leading the attack. He also climbed on Geogreymon's shoulders.

Devimon and Geogreymon's clawed fists slammed into one another as a powerful grapple started up between the two. Something was fueling the Digidestined and giving them the power to oppose his might but what was it?! He should be superior to these scum. The dinosaur's eyes blazed with a ferocity as he went right for the attack! "Here have some of this! Mega Burst!''

His eyes full of fury Geogreymon let loose a huge blast of hyper charged Mega Flame right in Devimon's face at pointblank range which soon engulfed his entire upper body. Zooming high above the flightless dinosaur Devimon panicked when he saw he was directly in the sight of Angemon. And he looked to be on the holy warpath!

The devil figured the only way to win this battle was to summon more Black Gears and increase his Touch of Evil's power. "Touch of Evil! Head my calling Black Gears! Death Hand!'' Devimon roared out as the gears' black lightning supercharged the unholy blast of energy he slung the angel's way.

"Angel Staff!'' Angemon called out using his staff to swat away each blast of lightning that got near him. He zipped, bobbed, and weaved through his flight path avoiding Devimon's Death Hand blasts.

Devimon was caught up in attacking the angel he forgot about his pink haired partner. She'd snuck behind him and used her special gloves to charge up her countermeasure. "Hey Devimon let's see how tough you really are! Feel my power! Hand of Fate!''

The highly charged blast was then fired from the girl's outstretched fist. The blast dead center hit Devimon right on his back. Before he could even counter that Guardromon then let loose a round of Guardian Barrage missiles which hit an unsuspecting Devimon right square in the chest dead center. Kabuterimon zoomed in and called forth his counterattack! ''Beetle Horn Attack!"

The force of his hardened horn dead on in the head sent Devimon reeling back who fell to one knee. He was more powerful than this! The human scum and their Digimon accomplices were making a Monmon out of him!

''C'mon everyone we're Digidestined! The ultimate team! We won't let anyone beat us!'' Kohta shouted rallying everyone behind him.

This struck a chord in Devimon. The bonds were strong between the Digimon and their partners but where was it coming from? Even Devimon was barely harmed by Kabuterimon's attack but they still had the notion they could defeat him. How? ''They all have mutual trusts that never wavers, no matter how hopeless this battle is they keep the same utmost positive attitude. Where do these fools get such faith from?'' He pondered and was utterly confused by it... The talk of friendship, trust, love, hope, dreams, and heart were nothing but utter nonsense. In short they were foreign concepts to him.

''How can you all just head into battle with no chance of winning?" Devimon desperately asked as the previously mentioned concepts were very alien to him. They didn't make sense! How can sentimental garbage beat him?

''Huh?" Mayu repeated not sure she heard right as she was riding piggyback on Kyubimon.

"You mean you got no chance Devilman.'' Jason added as he was on board his Aquilamon express flight.

Sunflowmon scooped up Kanae and Yuka who added even more information to Devimon on humans. ''Let me tell you something about the human heart and spirit. It gives us the opportunity to ride up above the odds even when they're not in our favor. And hope is no illusion... everybody needs hope and love.''

JP now on back of Guardromon had more to say. ''And frankly Lucy has more heart and spirit than anyone I've ever seen.''

Since the pinkette could fight on her own alongside Angemon she figured she'd have the last words. ''That's what we've been trying to force down yer throat Devimon! Human potential is something that never stops flowing from our bodies and minds as long as we never give up!''

"Childish nonsense! You're on a fools quest!'' Devimon roared out in rage. He'd show these fools just how stupid these brats were trying to send a loss his way. They picked the wrong fallen angel to pick a fight with!

"That nonsense is gonna be kicking yer ass in a minute!" Kanae spat.

Taking flight Sunflowmon sent off a blast of Sunshine Beam at Devimon who recoiled from the attack. It got him hard on the chest again. Kyubimon ran along the beach sand then launched off a Fox Tail Inferno volley that bombarded the digital devil. The nine-tailed fox called out to the evil type Network minion. ''Ready to give up Devimon? If not its only more pain we'll dish out on you.'' The multi-tailed fox half lectured.

Devimon couldn't believe this! Now the fools were lecturing him like he was at the In-Training level. How were they so sure they could even beat him?! The powerful ruler of the mighty Black Gear system!? The group's attacks were making mincemeat out of him. "This is IMPOSSIBLE! I am... Invincible! No one can conquer me, I am Devimon master of the Black Gears!''

"Ah shut up every supervillain thinks they're invincible! You forget good eventually always wins over evil!'' Aquilamon shouted as he used a Grand Horn to ram into Devimon at full speed but Devimon caught the attack but was sent skidding through the beach sending sand flying everywhere.

Devimon gave the bird type champion a hard throw sending Aquilamon landing in the waters' edge. Guardromon and Geogreymon sent off a volley of Guardian Barrage missiles and a powerful ramming charge from his Horn Impulse which the devil countered with a Death Hand and backhanded Geogreymon away from him. It seemed Devimon still had some tricks left up his sinister sleeves.

Devimon threw out more of his Death Hand attack hoping to strike down these ignorant fools once and for all. ''Death Hand!" He shouted out as he blasted more unholy energy from his long outstretched hands which pushed back Kabuterimon but was still hit by his Electro Shocker ability.

Charging headlong at the digital devil Geogreymon roared out his next plan. ''Horn Impulse!" Geogreymon roared as he charged with his gigantic horns and pulverized into Devimon with a powerfully painful headbutt.

The evil villain recoiled from the blow as Aquilamon, Kyubimon, Guardromon and rushed headlong into battle next as Aquilamon went off on the warpath. ''Blast Rings!" He screeched out as he released a thundering roar as he fires off ring-shaped beams.

The beams hit Devimon just as he's also impacted by Kyubimon's Dragon Wheel move. Guardromon ran in next shouting what could be called a potential victory chant. "Who's the baddest mon around? Who's the smartest mon in town? Guardromon, that's me! Who'll drive Devimon into the ground? And never let old JP down? Guardromon, that's me!''

''Death Hand!" Devimon yelled again hitting Guardromon but was hit by Sunflowmon's Sunshine Beam (who was covering him).

By now Kabuterimon had recovered enough to zoom back into the fray as he charged headlong at Devimon! The devil then slugged him upside his exoskeleton covered head. But it only served to make the insect mad. ''Big mistake punk!" Kabuterimon growled as he used all four of his arms to restrain the virus type as he used his Beetle Horn Attack. ''Beetle Horn Attack!" The insectoid called out as he charged his horn with electricity, and headbutted Devimon not once but three times with it.

After getting attacked Devimon recoiled and fell to his knees as the whole group had surrounded him ready to strike him down. He mentally noted this wasn't possible! These fools couldn't have enough power to take him down! Their skills hadn't improved this much to lead to his defeat? ''''

Breaking into a fast run the pinkette figured it was now or never if they were going to take down Devimon or not. Using a Jet Gallop from Centarumon she figured the best way to defeat him was by overkill. The gallop was used mostly to get herself into point blank range of Devimon ready to attack! ''You think you can just run rampages anywhere you want! Most Diclonii would be cowering before you well not me! I'll show just what kind of power a Diclonius is capable of! FINAL SHINING BURST!'' She shouted as she put all her body and soul into inducing a massive eruption.

The attack hit the devil with full force as it engulfed Devimon in a huge fiery explosion sending the devil hurtling into the air, he tried to catch his fall but Angemon zoomed right for him and was ready to end things. ''It's time for you to go Devimon! Here's a parting gift from me to you! SO LONG HAND OF FATE!"

Angemon's gift was a super charged Hand of Fate attack that hit the devil based Network member hard! ''DAHHHH! NOOO!" Devimon roared out as the attack burst through his chest and cut right through his arm that'd feebly tried to defend him. The arm fell to the ground as the data began pouring from the gaping chest hole that was in the devil's chest.

Even though the attack had crippled the evil viral tyrant he still had some threats to give out. ''Mark my words Digidestined this isn't over do you understand me? Its not over. You might've been strong enough to defeat me but your battles are far from over. Evil Digimon are everywhere and there are other Digimon working for the Network, many far stronger than I am... Heheheh I wonder what you'll do when you run into them? And even though I couldn't do it myself I take pleasure knowing it will be all over soon.'' Devimon growled out as he finally broke up into his essential data.

It dissipated into the air and then every last few bits caught fire but it was any normal flame color, it was pure black. All the partner Digimon powered down to Rookie form. Patamon was essentially pooped. ''I think we finally got him. Boy am I beat.''

Hagurumon however fell flat on his back uttering out a basic pained cry. ''Ow. I'm not even ready to get up now.''

Renamon and Agumon went about helping the others back to their feet. Hawkmon was especially bushed. "That was especially unpleasant. I definitely don't want to do it again... not for awhile at least.''

Lucy was very much proud of herself, Patamon, and especially everybody else. But it was time to head out on home. ''WHOO YEAH! That's how ya do it! Well I guess that's a wrap then. Time we head home and celebrate what do you all say! Soda and pizza for everyone my treat!'' Lucy cheered out hoping everyone would join her.

She walked to JP's truck when suddenly Kohta whistled for her to stop right in her tracks and frankly Kanae wanted some answers out of her for once, straight answers and not dancing around the subject. "You got some explainin' to do missy. Look Lucy we know there's something about your appearance you're not telling us. Just what is all that Diclonius crap Devimon was ranting about back then? Look I'm not stupid girl just what is it about?''

"Lucy c'mon... I think we deserve an answer.'' Alex said readjusting his glasses again.

"... " Lucy tried to say something but nothing came out.

The ocean breeze blew her rosy hair everywhere as she continued to remain silent. It was clear by the looks on the Digimon's faces they knew about this one detail about the pink haired girl. And knew for quite some time. It was also clear that Lucy wanted to tell them about it but couldn't think up any ways to best explain it.

She'd hoped to put off this explanation for quite awhile longer but it seemed that plan was just dashed. Patamon on the other hand gave a look which meant it was now time and everyone would understand. "Ah c'mon Luce. They're your friends. Its ok to tell them the truth.'' Patamon said gently reassuring his friends the others should know the truth about their unusual housemate.

''A Diclonius? Is that what you are Lucy?" Alex asked again his mouth still a little agape again showing off his braces.

"Yes I am. It's the reason for the way I look. I understand if you all want me to pack up and leave. I just didn't know how to or when to tell you. You probably think I'm a freak right? Everyone else thinks so. A monster just like Devimon? We're obviously born with the horns on our heads. Plus our hair and eyes are full of a dominant red pigment. We also have an extra set of arms called vectors, they can do these kinds of things." Seeing the looks on the group's faces she demonstrated by lifting up a nearby rock on the beach.

Agumon nose sniffed and somehow sensed something was there that the human eye couldn't see. "Well it looks like Agumon can tell it's there." Kohta noted.

"Yes animals and Digimon know they're there despite the fact that they're invisible.'' Lucy confirmed. ''Look you all must think I'm sort of freak right? Everybody else does... "

''Why didn't you tell us sooner?'' Yuka asked gently. Her dark eyes full of friendly concern not anger.

Lucy however turned to look out into the dull grey skies that'd settled over the beach front. Waves lapped on shore, but still Lucy couldn't face them all. After all how could she tell everyone just what kind of freak she really was when she first met them. "Why didn't I tell you all sooner you say? How could I? Because you don't know what's it like living in a world where everybody even adults hate you unconditionally. A world where people just go out of their way to make your life a utter nightmare...a place where people are so cruel they tried to murder my dog in front of me just to make me suffer. Face it everyone I'm a freak! I've no place to belong much less a place in the world that's why. Everybody who sees my horns thinks I'm ugly.'' She sniffled as a tear rolled down her cheek.

Then suddenly Lucy started crying like a baby with tears going everywhere. Kohta and everybody could see this had been eating at her for quite a long time well before she met them all. Patamon couldn't stand seeing his partner so upset. ''Oh no... '' Patamon muttered flying to his now crying partner trying to cheer her back up. "Lucy if you keep crying I'll start too. C'mon cheer up.''

On top of people treating her like crap, having no friends, and hating her it seemed she also had a very poor self image. This caused by years of bullying and torment, Alex could see how the poor girl must've felt all these years after all he was a nerd. She said she spent 7 years in the human world but spent the last thirteen in the Digital World. Her only real friends were the Digimon.

Kohta couldn't stand to see Lucy bawl like this. He wrapped his arms around her and told the truth about he saw her. ''Actually I think the horns look cute on you. C'mon Lucy please stop your crying. I don't like seeing pretty girls cry.'' He said as his blue eyes met her crimson hued ones.

Looking up at him Lucy blinked her tear filled eyes. She thought she heard him say she was a pretty girl. But that couldn't be right since no boy in her entire life had ever called her that before. Salamon said it as a joke so that didn't count. ''You... you think I'm pretty? Why? I'm a freak.''

Hoping to give Kohta some help Alex figured he'd tell her a few things about himself. ''Lucy I kinda know how you feel. Look at me I'm short, nerdy looking, wear braces, good with computers, and love comics, video gaming, and sci-fi flicks. If it wasn't for Jason and JP teaching me a few martial arts moves I'd be getting tons more swirlies in school.''

''True he would.'' Jason added.

After drying her tears away Lucy looked at everybody around her. She wasn't expecting this reaction from them. They still accepted her even after finding out what she was? The voice simply couldn't believe it. "No impossible! This can't be... This has to be a mistake!'' It ranted and raved in her mind.

''Oh shut up.'' She said telling it off. "Anyways are we still hungry? I say we celebrate our first victory over Network. The defeat of Devimon! Who's with me?''

Everybody cheered their good albeit unusual friend on. Everybody activated their Digiport feature sending the Digimon back to the Inn ahead of them as everybody piled into JP's truck and drove off for home.

-to be continued

Ok so how was this chapter? Action packed enough? Bold enough? Rushed? Or crap? Anyways now that the story's first major arc is done and over, the Digidestined now united can get ready for their. Chapters 15 through 17 will be dealing with the major forces of the facility. The likes of Kakuzawa Jr., Kakuzawa Sr., Kurama have been watching all the attacks of the Network. They've found the first attack on the beach connects a rogue Diclonius girl to these monsters calling themselves 'Digimon'. How will this play out?

How's the pseudo soundtrack holding up? I'm keeping it because the songs set the mood listen to them on Youtube while reading I think you'll like the atmosphere they create. Also now the Digidestined know Lucy's secret and thankfully the others willingly accepted her knowing she'd good reasons for not explaining. She'd simply no idea on how they'd react.

This has been writer TURP and I hope you folks are enjoying my crazed crossovers. Please look into Yokohama Night Monsters, Neon Genesis Nightwarriors, Power Rangers Dimension Legends, ELG The Series, Diclonius Goddess of Steel, and Maverick Hunter KLN to satisfy your craving for bizarre crossovers. This has been TURP "The Crossover Writer" and now slightly less insane phasing out people later.

PS: Let me know what to do by voting on my polls there're contests there. Please I'd like to know more people are reading this since I'm not writing for my health. I'm writing this cuz I enjoyed Digimon when I was younger. Also this might be my last update for a few weeks as PC issues have yet again shown their ugly head and causing problems. Anyways peace out until then readers.
