Chapter 69

 

 

Death and Revelations

 

 

          Cody, Armadillomon, Mimi, Joe and Gomamon were running down the streets of what looked like a war zone. “I can’t believe all the destruction!” Cody exclaimed.

          “I can’t believe we aren’t being attacked.” Mimi replied. “Where are the legions of digimon?”

          Joe smiled. “Probably trying to keep the locals in line. Ken always had away of rousing people for the common good.”

          A roar from behind them turned the group. An enormous blue dinosaur digimon, with a bone head for one hand, and a metal skull for the other. “Looks like one is left.” Gomamon observed.

          “You guys go!” Armadillomon turned and faced his opponent. “This Deltamon’s mine!”

          Joe nodded at Cody and his companion. “Good luck. Come on!”  Mimi, Gabumon and Gomamon followed Joe, leaving Armadillomon and Cody to fight Deltamon. They heard the cry “Armadillomon digivolve to…ANKYLOMON!” being shouted, then heard a battle take place. Joe wanted to go back and help, but without some sort of weapon, he didn’t have a chance. 

Joe and his group made good time to the ammunition building. “Well, let’s go.” Mimi exclaimed.

Joe turned the door. It was unlocked. “No.” Joe exclaimed.  “Something’s wrong.”

“What is it Joe?” Gomamon asked. Gomamon had learned to trust Joe’s instincts.

“Just a hunch.” Joe turned to Mimi and Gabumon. “You two stay out here, in case it’s a trap.”

“But Joe…” Mimi began.

Joe went over and lightly grabbed Mimi’s chin. He placed a single kiss on her lips, holding it for a moment. “I love you Mimi. Just be careful.”

Mimi nodded and smiled. “You too.” Mimi looked at Gomamon.  “Both of you.” Mimi watched as the pair disappeared into the warehouse.

 

 

Joe walked deep into the warehouse. His hand groped the side of the wall, and flicked a switch. “We’ve got to hurry, I don’t how safe Mimi and Cody will be.” The room burst with light. “Blast!” Joe cried as he walked up to the door to the main storage area. “Solid steel! And I don’t have time to pick the lock.”

          “Leave it to me.” Gomamon smiled. This was as good a chance as any to show Joe what he could do. “Gomamon digivolve to…IKKAKUMON!”

          Joe blinked in surprise as his little digimon friend turned in to a massive white furred sea creature. “Whoa, I admit I am impressed.”

          “Thanks Joe!” Ikkakumon replied in a gruff voice. “Now for the door.  Harpoon Torpedo!” The horn on Ikkakumon’s head shot forward, and burst apart. A missile collided with the door, shattering it into metal splinters.

          Joe covered his face as the explosion vibrated in the room. “Don’t think that I still can’t take you.” Joe smirked as he walked through the hole, now large enough to accommodate Ikkakumon.

          “Never crossed my mind.” Ikkakumon followed Joe into the massive room.

          “Now this is my kind of place!” Joe looked around. Izzy stored massive amounts of weapons in case it ever became necessary to arm a human army. Joe walked over to one of the crates, and wiped away the dust.  “Magnums. Just what the doctor ordered.” Joe ripped off the top, rather effortlessly. He took two weapons, and slapped in a few rounds.

          “Find everything you need?”

          Joe whipped around. Standing at the end of the row of boxes, was the child Izzy assumed died in camp all those years ago. But this was a nightmarish version. Izzy was wearing a black and red costume, complete with a long flowing cape and skull shaped belt buckle. Even more frightening were the deep red eyes staring at him thought the black aura of energy.   “Hell!” Joe shouted.

          “You’ll be there in a second!” Izzy shouted. “Did you really think I would not have deduced you would head to my weapon’s cache?”

          “Harpoon torpedo!” Ikkakumon fired, hoping to catch Izzy off guard.

          Izzy was consumed in the explosion, but he walked out of the smoke, not the least bit scathed. “You’ll have to better than that!”

          “Whatever you want!” Joe whipped out his newly acquired acquisitions. Bullets rained with uncanny accuracy at Izzy, but merely rebounded of Izzy’s dark aura harmlessly. Izzy just smiled, not even flinching. “Change of tactics!”  Joe shifted his aim, and fired. Bullet after bullet hit the power box behind Izzy, causing it to explode in a fury of sparks. “Ikkakumon! Regroup!”

          “Harpoon Torpedo!”  Ikkakumon fired again, hitting Izzy in the darkness. There was a second explosion, but its purpose was to distract Izzy. Ikkakumon de-digivolved to Gomamon, and ran into the crates with Joe.

          “Joe!” Izzy called out as the explosion died out. He held his right hand overhead, and charged a bolt of energy. A ball of light glowed in his hand, illuminating the entire complex. “You can’t hide forever!” Izzy considered firing into the various boxes, but there were explosives and ammunition here.  No sense doing more damage than what was absolutely necessary.

          Joe and Gomamon were hiding as Izzy walked by. “Izzy…” Joe scowled. “Out of all the people.”

          Gomamon placed a paw on Joe’s knee. “I know. But what do we do now?”

          Joe looked at the box in front of him. In the darkened warehouse, he could make out one letter and one number. C4. Joe breathed in. “Hold him off for as long as possible. I just hope this box has everything I need.”

          “You’ve got it Joe!” Gomamon tried to sound brave, but Izzy just radiated power. It was a suicide mission, but that didn’t matter. "Wait till you see my ultimate form!"

          Joe looked back. He knew no matter how strong Gomamon could get, Izzy would be stronger. Joe looked down at Gomamon again. “Good luck my friend.”

          “You too.” Gomamon replied. Gomamon walked out from behind the crates. “Hey Izzy!  Let’s see what you've got!”

 

 

Joe and Gomamon had been gone for some time, leaving Gabumon and Mimi alone. Gabumon sat down against the wall, and Mimi joined him.   After a bit of an awkward silence, Mimi spoke. “Penny for your thoughts.”

“Money’s useless nowadays.” Gabumon tried a vain attempt at humor.

“You know what I mean.” Mimi replied, raising an eyebrow.

“I was thinking about how I envy Gomamon.” Gabumon replied.

“How so?” Mimi asked.

“All my life I searched for my digidestined, expecting, well, someone like Joe.” Gabumon answered.

“The world’s not ready for two Joes.” Mimi chuckled, also trying to lighten the mood.

“But someone like Joe. Look at Gomamon, he’s proud of Joe. He’d do anything for him, because Joe would do anything for him.” Gabumon sighed.

“So why are you looking for Matt now?” Mimi questioned.

“Because, I believe, deep down, there is someone like that in there. I just think Matt’s forgotten the boy who would do anything for his friends and family.” Gabumon closed his eyes.

Mimi thought about Gabumon’s confession. She smiled and rubbed the top of his head. “If it helps any, I am a little jealous of Joe.” Mimi confessed. “Gomamon is loyal to him, and is Joe’s best friend. Of course me and Gomamon are friends as well, but Gomamon and Joe seem to share a special bond.” Mimi shrugged her shoulders. “Guess it’s a guy thing. And me….” Mimi shook her head. “I have a homicidal Council of Five member.”

“You’re Palmon’s digidestined?” Gabumon’s eyes were wide in surprise. “But how did you know?”

“I always knew I think from the first time I saw her. Joe tried to hide it from me. Even when Ken revealed who she truly was, Joe tried to cover up the fact. The big lug still tries to protect me. But I had a feeling when I first saw her.” Mimi looked at Gabumon. “I do feel responsible, not being there.  But I looked her in the eyes. I saw how she enjoyed shooting Biyomon in the wing. How she enjoys the power she has…and the suffering she gave.”  Mimi placed a hand on Gabumon’s shoulder. “I know she was your friend years ago. But your friend died, and only Epsilon, the Council of Five member, is left.” Mimi confided.  

Gabumon shook a little. He guessed, he always believed deep down, Palmon was still good. But Mimi confirmed his worst fears. Palmon was gone, the Palmon he knew. “And…Matt?”

 Mimi took a deep breath. “I don’t know. Maybe Gamma, Matt, can be saved. You would know that better than anybody. But whatever happens, I am glad to have met you Gabumon.”

Gabumon smiled. “Me too.”

          “Well lookie what we have here.” Gabumon and Mimi looked up.  Lillymon was leaning on Matt’s shoulder, with a sly smile on her face.

          “I do believe that’s my digimon you have there.” Matt looked down at Gabumon. Gabumon had the oddest look on his face. Like he was trying to find the right words to an impossible question.

          “Oh, don’t worry Matt. I can be your new digimon. I am much more fun than that stuffy old Gabumon.” Lillymon planted a quick kiss on Matt’s cheek. “He can keep that pink haired twit.”

          Mimi rubbed the bump on her head as she stood up. “The last digimon I wanted to see.”

          “So mean to your digimon.” Lillymon smiled. “No wonder I switched digidestined, right Gamma?” Lillymon ran her hand threw Matt’s blond hair.

          “So I’m a digidestined.” Mimi stated. “Just like Joe.”

          “Sure looks that way.” Lillymon smiled.

          “And you’re my digimon.” Mimi remarked.

          “Your ideal partner.” Lillymon twirled in a circle. “So what do you think?”

          “If you’re a reflection of myself, I just realized something.” Mimi shook her head. “I am a complete bitch.”

          “You wound me.” Lillymon clasped her hands together. “Let me return the favor!” Her hands morphed into her flower cannon.

          “Back off Lillymon.” Gabumon walked out from behind Mimi. He took his place next to Mimi.

          “My old protector.” Matt shook his head. “I see you’ve changed sides. You should have stuck with me, the winning team.”

          “I am sorry Matt.” Gabumon stood in front of Mimi, and held his hands wide. “But I can’t let you hurt anybody else!”

          “Too bad you can’t stop me.” Lillymon’s hands morphed back to normal as she bent down one knee. Lillymon coyly patted Gabumon on the head. “It’s not like a rookie could stop me.”

          “You’re absolutely right. I don’t have a chance as a rookie.”  Gabumon smiled as he looked at Matt. “Gabumon digivolve to…GURUMON!” Lillymon fell backwards as the massive blue-white wolf took place.

"What?!" Lillymon was knocked back as Gurumon form pushed her with his massive head. She regained herself as she hovered in front of the champion.

“Forget to remove your digivice?” Mimi smiled at Matt.

“Blast!”  Matt grabbed the digivice from his belt, and the crest he had with him as well, intent on throwing them away.

“Not so fast!” Mimi jumped forward and grabbed Matt’s hands.  “We’ve got one more level to go.” Gurumon's form began to morph in front as Matt struggled with Mimi.

“Stupid girl!” Matt pushed Mimi off him with a serge of strength.

“Not a ladies man, are we Gamma?” Mimi fell against the wall, as Gurumon blinded everyone with a flash of light.

“Gurumon digivolve to…WEREGURUMON!” The werewolf turned to Lillymon. “Now are we ready to fight.”

“Oh yeah.” Lillymon smiled. “And I was afraid this was going to get boring.” Lillymon gestured for Weregurumon with one finger. “Come on Wolfie. Let’s see what you’ve got!”

“How’s this!” Weregurumon sprung forward with his powerful legs, and pulled his fist back. A powerful right punch flew threw the air, causing cracks to fill the wall the punch connected with.

“Now that was telegraphed!” Lillymon flew straight up the wall, and brought her hands together.

Weregurumon dug his claws into the wall, and using his momentum, pushed up on the wall, flying straight up. His legs wrapped around Lillymon’s head before she could get a shot off. “Then how's this?!”  Weregurumon threw down with his legs, throwing Lillymon full force.   “Wolf’s Claw!” Weregurumon’s claws blazed with red energy, sent downwards towards Lillymon.

Lillymon flapped her wings suddenly, hitting the cement but slowing her speed enough to roll with the impact. She rolled to her knees as Weregurumon’s energy left a hole where she was a moment ago. Lillymon was showered with gravel. “Not bad!” Lillymon got to her knees, and aimed her weapon at Weregurumon, who was in free fall.  “Flower Cannon!”

A blast of energy seared towards Weregurumon. He tried to shift his position, but couldn’t in mid air. “Ooofff!” Weregurumon grunted as the blast hit him in the stomach, and the force of the impact sent him straight up.

Lillymon flew as fast as she could, catching up to Weregurumon at the apex of his flight. “And down we go!”  Lillymon raised her hands over her head, and brought them down on Weregurumon’s head. Weregurumon went tumbling to the pavement below. “Flower Cannon!” Lillymon fired another blast, connecting with Weregurumon on his way down. Weregurumon hit the pavement hard, turning back to Gabumon as his energy left him.

“Ooohh…” Gabumon got to his feet, but stumbled.

“You really should learn to fight.” Lillymon landed in front of Gabumon. Gabumon got up, but was slammed back down as Lillymon stepped on him with one foot. “Living with Gamma all those years really made you soft.” Lillymon aimed her cannon at Gabumon. “Sorry old friend, but I guess I have to finish you. No hard feelings.”

“Epsilon wait!” Matt shouted. “He was a valuable servant to me.”  Matt placed a hand on her flower cannon.

“You heard Izzy’s orders.” Lillymon shook her head. “He should have stayed with you in the first place.”

“Plant bitch!” Lillymon turned her head, and regarded Mimi.

“Oh, you.” Lillymon smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ll get you next.”

“I don’t think so.” Mimi held out a digivice. It fell off Lillymon when she rolled on the pavement. “Lose something?”

“Hey!” Lillymon completely faced Mimi. “Give it back!” Lillymon angrily shouted.

Mimi pressed buttons quickly on the digivice randomly. “I don’t think so!”

“Why you!” Lillymon brought up her weapon. Suddenly an odd feeling came over her as she felt her energy drain. Her form shrank, and Palmon reappeared. “That’s not fair!”

“Life isn’t fair.” Mimi chuckled. She must have hit the right buttons.  “Get over it.”

“Give me that digivice!” Palmon threatened.

“Come and get it!” Mimi ran off down the alley.

“You bet I will!” Palmon took off after Mimi.

Mimi ran down the streets as fast as she could. She stopped against the alley near the outskirts of the city, breathing heavily. Only then, did she turn to see if she was being pursued. Mimi was surprised, but Palmon seemed to be gone. “Phew…” Mimi wiped her brow.

“Boo!” Palmon’s upside down head popped in front of Mimi. Mimi screamed and stumbled backwards. “That was a lovely chase.” Palmon swung upside down from the charred tree from her poison ivy vines. “Now are you going to give me my digivice back, or do I get touchy?”

“It’s my digivice.” Mimi patted her hip. “And I don’t think my digimon deserves it anymore!”

“It’s not open to discussion!” Palmon held out her left hand. “Poison Ivy!”

Palmon’s trio of vines whipped around Mimi’s legs, pulling her to the ground. Another set grabbed Mimi’s hands. “You’re right, it isn’t!” Mimi suddenly bit down, hard, on Palmon’s vine encircling her left wrist.

“YEOW!” Palmon retracted her vines, and hopped up and down. “That hurt!” Palmon sucked on her vine finger.

“That was the point!” Mimi got to her feet. A smouldering branch lay on the streets, probably from a previous battle. She grabbed the branch, and swung it. The sudden rush of air cause the tip to burst into flames. “Who wants grilled vegetables?!” Mimi waved the flaming weapon at Palmon.

“Enough of this, you are going to pay for that!” Palmon held her hands to her side. “Poison Ivy!” All six of her vines grew, and began whipping at Mimi.

“I’m not afraid of you!” Mimi tried to catch the vines, but every time she brought her blazing weapon close, the vine pulled out of her reach.

“You should be!” Palmon’s vines increased their speed. 

One vine slapped down on Mimi’s cheek, another on her leg. Both left red marks on her skin, but she refused to give Palmon the satisfaction of hearing her scream. “Stop it!” Mimi leapt forward, hoping to catch Palmon off guard.

Palmon was expecting this. Two vines shot down from her left hand, wrapping around Mimi’s feet. The branch was ripped from her grasp, sending up a shower of embers. “Now then you pink haired thief, give me my digivice!

“Not on your…” Another vine wrapped around Mimi’s mouth, silencing the insult. Mimi tried to grab the vine from her mouth, but another two vines encircled her wrists, leaving her helpless.

“I am sure you had something witty to say, but some of us have schedules to keep.” Palmon squeezed tightly, making Mimi squirm uncomfortably. “Now where is my digivice?!” Palmon’s lone free vine worked under Mimi’s shirt.

“Stomph thaft!” Mimi gurgled with the vine holding her mouth shut.

“Oh don’t pretend you don’t like it rough bitch!” Palmon gave Mimi another squeeze. “Your boyfriend did.”

Mimi’s eyes turned wide with rage. “Youth mothfier fufking!” Mimi’s garbled voice choked out with the vine in her mouth. The spires hit her full force, as she wanted nothing to do more than delete her digimon.

“Digimon never see their kids. We’re born in primary village.” Palmon smiled. So making fun of my mother doesn’t hurt me in the slightest.  Speaking of hurt.”

Mimi’s eyes flew wide as she felt the vine snake down her pants and ram up her ass. “Mmmh!” Mimi struggled harder now.

“My vines are very sensitive.” Palmon smiled. “Not as sensitive as my cunt or a dick, but I do enjoy a good fuck with them now and again.”  Palmon forced more of her vine up Mimi’s ass. The other five vines held Mimi in place. “Now how about a good analing?”

Mimi struggled as the vine repeatedly humped her ass, forcing more and more of the green intruder in her. “I’ll kill you!” Mimi managed to free her mouth for a second, before Palmon silenced her again. She cried as the vine hurt her, stretching her ass to the limt, along with the utter indignity.

“Oh, I am enjoying this. Domination is one of my big fetishes.” Palmon walked up, and used the vine on Mimi’s left leg, ripping her shorts to mere tatters. “Although I have a lot of fetishes.” Palmon held Mimi’s leg still as she straddled it. “Rape being another one.”

Mimi tried harder to break free, but Palmon’s vines where taking the fight out of her. Mimi growled and whimpered as Palmon began humping her legs, rubbing her cunt over her smooth calf. “Mmm, that does feel nice.”  Palmon pulled the vines out of Mimi’s rectum. Mimi sighed in relief, until Palmon jammed the vine up her pussy roughly. “Ah, you like that better, don’t you?” Palmon kept pushing more and more of her vine in Mimi’s unwilling cunt.

“Mmbitmtch!” Mimi cried, trying to squeeze her legs together.

“Come on now pinky.” Palmon remarked as she humped Mimi’s legs, rubbing her swollen green pussy lips over the smooth skin. “The spires have taken over now. You should be enjoying this more.” Palmon wrapped her legs tightly around Mimi’s hips. Mimi’s eyes just flashed angrily at her. “I guess you hate me more than I realized.” Palmon smiled. “Good.”

Palmon’s strung her vines wide, pulling Mimi’s legs painfully apart.  Palmon had to use trees as leverage in order to keep Mimi’s hips open.   Two vines kept Mimi’s arms wrapped tightly on she lay on her back. Two other vines were strung out from trees, and kept Mimi’s legs apart. Palmon had become quite adept at using her vines over the years, priding her self on her skills as she ripped Mimi’s white shorts off. “Hmmmm, I guess that isn’t your natural hair colour.” Palmon joked as she looked at the pubic hair on her cunt. Mimi tried struggling harder, but Palmon held her tight. “Now, what would your last request be?”

“Shkin youmm alivffe!” Mimi gurgled

“Oh, you don’t want that.” Palmon smiled as she knelt down between Mimi’s legs, her hands to her sides to keep the vines strung out. “You want this.” Palmon’s long pointed tongue ran over Mimi’s slit. Mimi shuddered involuntarily, and tried to shut her legs. She succeeded in closing her legs part way, but Palmon just retracted her vines more. Mimi’s hips were pulled apart almost painfully hard, stretching her tendons.

“Mmmppphhh!!” Mimi moaned. She tried to bite Palmon’s vines, but Palmon merely kept her jaw shut, preventing her from biting.

"What’s that?" Palmon slobbered. “You want more?” Palmon increased her tempo. The long wet tongue ran all over Mimi’s slit, giving the young girl great pleasure, although unwanted. Mimi protested louder as Palmon was working her to an orgasm. Mimi would hate to admit it, but Palmon was skilled at this. She had been eaten out by Joe of course, but Palmon new just where to go. But the thought of her comparing Epsilon/Palmon to Joe just angered her more. Palmon however enjoyed the fact Mimi was enjoying this and hating it at the same time. “Cum for me, your digimon…” Palmon dirty talked as she oralled Mimi.

“MMmmmmmMMMMM!” Mimi orgasmic scream penetrated her vine gag. Palmon just smiled as Mimi’s cunt became noticeably wetter, licking Mimi the whole time. Mimi’s struggling died down, her body drained from the unwanted orgasm.

Palmon released the vines from Mimi’s mouth as she pulled her pussy juice soaked face away from Mimi's cunt. “So what do you think?”

Mimi growled at Palmon. “I think you should takes those vines of yours…” Mimi smiled. “And go fuck yourself.”

Palmon smirked. “How witty.” A vine whipped around Mimi’s neck. Mimi struggled as the vine wrapped around her. “But I’ve had enough of you.” Palmon smiled as she increased the pressure. Mimi opened her mouth trying to get air, but Palmon merely filled her mouth with her vines. Mimi’s eyes bulged as she tried to breath, grasping at the vines in her mouth and around her neck. Palmon scowled as Mimi’s movements became increasingly weaker, until she finally went limp. Palmon squeezed tighter, long after Mimi stopped moving. Finally Palmon retracted her vines. She walked up to up to Mimi, grabbing her lifeless head by the pink hair. “For some reason I expected more from your death. Closure. Satisfaction. Maybe even remorse? But you are nothing. Just another sad pathetic human who got in my way.” Palmon dropped Mimi’s head to the ground. “I never wanted to be a chosen digimon. I like my life!” Palmon shouted to the skies. “I am EPSILON!”

 

 

“Okay Gabumon.” Matt walked up to his former servant. “Before the trigger happy epsilon gets back, you better come with me. I’m sure I can convince Izzy for you to serve me once again.”

“NO!” Gabumon shot Matt an angry glare.

“No?” Matt responded surprised. “What do you mean no?”

“Exactly what I mean! No!” Gabumon glared at Matt. “I never realized how bad it was out here, living in that mansion of yours! I never realized how far gone you actually were, to be a part of something like this!”

“It’s not like you have any choice!” Matt replied. “Serve me, or they’ll kill you! I’m Matt, your digidestined! The choice should be easy!”

“You were Matt, but you changed! Whatever stands in front of me now, it’s sure isn’t Matt!” Gabumon’s rant continued. “And if Matt no longer exists, then I don’t either! Only the monster Gamma is left!”

“Watch how you talk to me!” Matt warned.

“Why should I care?!” Gabumon growled. “You obviously don’t.  You don’t care about anything! You selfish, heartless, creature!”

“Quiet!” Matt struck Gabumon across the face hard.

Gabumon didn’t seem to notice. “Go ahead! Hit me harder! Prove to me Matt is gone!”

“I said QUIET!” Matt struck Gabumon harder, drawing blood.

“I was right!” Crimson fluid dripped from Gabumon’s nose. “Face it!  No one wants Gamma! Not Me, not your parents, not TK!”

“QUIET!” Another blow. “QUIET!!” A second strike. "QUIET" A third. A fourth. A fifth.

Gabumon’s face was now a bloody mess. His right eye was swollen shut, and his left was only open by a narrow slit. Blood dripped from his nose and cracked lip. Gabumon’s voice dropped low. “Look at you. Look at what’ve you become. Do you think TK would want to see what has become of you?”

Matt raised his hand over his head to hit Gabumon again. A drop of something dripped on to his cheek. Matt stopped, the sudden sensation breaking his anger filled rage. He brought his hand to his cheek, and stopped.  He slowly turned his hands around. They were covered in blood.  Gabumon’s blood. “I...I…did this to save him. My family.”

“Did you really?” Gabumon accused. “When you hit me, was that for TK? Was it?!”

“I…I…I…” Matt couldn’t stop looking at his hands. The blood wasn’t Gabumon’s. It was every son, daughter, mother, and father, anyone who suffered at the council’s hand. The blood became an ocean, deeper than Matt could see.

“You saved TK by killing Matt!” Gabumon went on. “So go on!  Finish me off, if that’s what Gamma wants!”

Matt began to shake. He looked up at Gabumon’s face, a horrible mess, caused by him. The digimon didn’t even try to stop him. “I…I…” Gabumon’s eyes seemed to pierce at his soul. Tears began to well up on Matt. "I’m sorry!" Matt blurted. He wrapped his arms around Gabumon.  “I’m sorry! What have I done?!”

Gabumon wrapped his arms around Matt’s back. Even with all the pain he was in, he smiled. “It’s all right.” Gabumon comforted as the years caught up on Matt

Matt cried for who knows how long. Gabumon didn’t say anything.  He didn’t need to. Finally Matt calmed down. “Gabumon…What have I done to you?” He ran his hand over Gabumon’s mangled face.

"It doesn’t matter. I have my Matt back." Gabumon smiled.  Suddenly there was a flash of light. Gabumon’s eyes flew wide open in surprise. Matt fell backward as Gabumon screamed, and watched, as he broke apart in a hail of blue, yellow, and white dots.

“NO!!” Matt screamed, as his new and old friend completely broke apart.

“That was good Gamma!” Lillymon’s hands morphed back from her flower cannon. “The tears were a bit over the edge I admit, but you kept Gabumon around.” Matt was speechless, he was shaking. “Oh don’t worry, I’ll be your digimon from now on.” Lillymon ran a finger under Matt’s chin.  "And I am much more fun then Gabumon is" Lillymon flew up in the air.  “But right now we have some digidestined to find!” Lillymon shouted as she flew up in the air.

Matt watched as Lillymon flew over the buildings and out of sight. A few stray atoms flew past Matt’s nose, before disappearing completely.  Matt looked at his hands. Gabumon’s blood was gone, disappeared when he was destroyed. But Matt could still see the crimson stains, running deeper and deeper. Gabumon’s death, everyone the Council had hurt, all of that blood was on his hands. Matt was overcome. He did the only thing he could do. He fell to his knees, and cried.

 

 

“Steel Tail!” Ankylomon’s massive tail sung again. Deltamon caught the tail in his bony skull, but was clearly struggling to hold him in place. The two had been battling for some time.

          “Come on Ankylomon!” Cody cheered. “This Deltamon is a pushover!”

          “Watch it.” Cody turned around, thinking he was talking to a reflection of his, but this reflection was breathing heavily, leaning up against the wall.  Wounds dressed his face, but the most striking difference was the eyes, filled with anger and hate. “That’s my personal protector.”

          “Delta.” Cody completely turned around. This sight of him still sickened him, something he could have become. “And his Deltamon.”

Delta-Cody was leaning heavily against the wall. He was abnormally pale, with a horrible gash on his neck. His shirt neck was stained with a few drops of dried blood. “You son of a bitch…” Delta-Cody coughed.

          “Think hard before you talk about our mother.” Cody brought up his sword.

          “You nearly killed me once, took my place, and then Myotismon nearly killed me a second time.” Delta-Cody brushed the gash on his forehead that Cody inflected on him. It was sure to leave a deep scar. He had another deep rip in his neck, most likely from Myotismon.

          “You brought this on yourself.” Cody didn’t know quite why he still held his sword up high. For some reason, Delta-Cody seemed dangerous, even more so. Like a wounded creature.

          “Idiot!” Delta-Cody spat out. “Self-righteous idiot! It’s easy to be a hero where you come from. I had to struggle to survive, as I am now. And I won’t let you take this away from me. I am Delta!”

          “If I wanted you dead, I would have killed you back in Piedmon’s funhouse. I am better that you.” Cody lectured.

          “No.” Delta-Cody reached under his shirt. “Just more foolish.”

          Cody heart skipped as Delta-Cody pulled out a gun. “Wha…”

          Delta-Cody aimed the lethal weapon at him. “Look familiar? A police issue service revolver. Identical to the one father used before he died in that plane crash. Fitting.”

          Cody backed up, shaking in fear. His own father died differently, shot in the line of duty. Ladydevimon must have changed the time line so Cody’s father wasn’t shot, but died in the plane crash Cody was in. “You…. can’t!”

          Delta-Cody smiled as he took aim. “Yes. I can.”

          Ankylomon was battling furiously with Deltamon. He managed to wrench his tail free, pulling Deltamon off balance. “Take this! Steel Tail!”  Ankylomon swung around, connecting a massive blow under Deltamon’s central head. Deltamon went flying back, his form shaking the pavement.  Ankylomon smiled as Deltamon lay stunned on he ground.

          BANG!

          That one sound drowned out every other noise, seemingly echoing infinitely as Ankylomon turned his head around. Delta-Cody stood a distance away, the gun barrel smoking. Cody seemed to be hanging motionless, when the sword slipped from his hand, clanging to the ground. Then Cody fell, his own body making a deafening thump as it hit. A thin stream of blood ran from under Cody.

          Ankylomon looked up as a combination of tears and hate filled his eyes. Fury welled up in his soul. The spires did not need to work, since Ankylomon was brought to a rage far beyond that of which the dark spires could ever produce. “YOU BEAST!” Ankylomon roared, his voice shattering windows.

          Delta-Cody took a step back unsteadily, his legs threatening to fail as Ankylomon raised himself on his hind legs, ready to crush the life out of Delta-Cody. Ankylomon would not have thought himself capable of killing a human. Until today. “I’LL KILL YOU!”

          “Tri-Force Beam!” Ankylomon’s scream echoed as the combined power of Deltamon’s three heads hit him in the back, covering him in a non-stop blaze of blue energy. Ankylomon fell to his knees as Deltamon’s attack finally ceased. Ankylomon’s massive head fell inches away from Delta-Cody.  Delta-Cody grabbed the wall to keep himself from falling over as the ground shook. Ankylomon slowly shrunk back to Armadillomon, his eyes still wet with tears. “Cody…I’m sorry…” Armadillomon weakly moved his head to Cody’s motionless form.

          Armadillomon tried to get up, but the massive bone head on Deltamon’s arm pinned him down. “Nice try.” Delta-Cody slowly walked up to Armadillomon.

          “How…could any part of you…be Cody…” Armadillomon choked up.

          Delta-Cody placed the barrel of the gun on Armadillomon’s head.  “I’m not. I am Delta.”

          BANG!

 

 

          Joe worked feverishly, hearing Zudomon attacking Izzy. Joe was impressed with the little, no big guy. Izzy was by far more powerful, but Zudomon still was holding his own, buying Joe the time he needed. Joe stood up, grasping his newly built device. Then he turned to another crate.   “I may go down.” Joe ripped the wooden lift off with a grunt of effort. “But I sure as hell am not going down without a fight!”

          “Vulcan’s Hammer!” Zudomon had both hands on the handle of his gigantic hammer, bringing it down on Izzy. Zudomon had been throwing everything he had at Izzy, and Izzy wasn’t even fazed.

          Izzy held out both hands as the hammer fell on him. His feet were driven into the ground up to their knees, but Izzy was otherwise unharmed.  “Pathetic!” Izzy pushed up with all his strength, throwing Zudomon off balance as his hammer was wrenched from his grasp. “A waste of my time!”  Izzy’s aura fired a blast of dark energy originating from his hand, hitting Zudomon in the chest. Zudomon turned back into Gomamon as he went sailing into the wall. Gomamon’s head made a sickening thump as it collided with the wall. “And where is that worthless partner of yours?”

          “Right here!” Izzy turned his head as high calibre rounds bounced of his shield. In the darkened warehouse though, Izzy couldn’t see his opponent firing. The flashes from the gunfire creating a strobe like effect, seemingly everywhere at once.

          “Come on Joe!” Izzy regarded the bullets as nothing more than a mere rain. “Show yourself!”

          “What ever you want!” Joe came out from behind a box, discarding the automatic weapons.

          “Prodigious!” Izzy flung out his hands as dual spheres of black energy cackled from them.

          Joe ducked the blasts and rolled as the boxes behind him shattered into splinters, sending assorted handguns all over the floor. Joe was up on his feet, fast, impressive considering the bulky flamethrower strapped to his back. “Fry!” Joe shouted as he doused Izzy in burning flames.

          “Impressive.” Izzy’s face appeared from the blazes. “No mere human ever lasted a half a second against me in combat.” Izzy just smiled as the flames, hot enough to melt steel, licked at his black aura. “But it’s still futile.  You can’t win Joe.”

          Joe scowled as the flamethrower finally ran out of fuel, blackening the floor and wall around Izzy, even partially melting the surrounding area, but not much else. “How could you do this Izzy?!”  Joe flung the heavy tanks off his back, making a loud clanking sound throughout the warehouse.

          “You remember me?” Izzy chuckled. “I am touched.”

          “I remember you Izzy Izumi.” Joe walked forward. He was a fair bit taller than Izzy, but Izzy wasn’t the least concerned about his height. “I remember how terrible I felt after you left the camp. I remember seeing Ladydevimon’s face on the screen, and I remember finding your parents to find out what happened to you. They said you had disappeared. I believed after you ran off from camp, that Ladydevimon killed you.”

          “Well now you know the truth.” Izzy floated up, so now Joe looked up at him.

          “The truth?” Joe gripped his fists tightly. “The truth was I was devastated! Crushed! I blamed myself for letting you die in the forest! I vowed that I would never let anyone die again!”

          “And you did that very poorly, letting Ken perish and all.” Izzy closed his eyes and shook his head..

          “All my life, my Church, my training, my underground.” Joe went on.  “All of it was for you! Dedicated to the child I let die, but who was actually responsible for this nightmare!”

          “The dark irony of it all.” Izzy chuckled. “It is quite delicious.”

          “My brother and father died in a make-shift hospital you ordered destroyed for helping the underground’s wounded!” Joe’s one good eye welled with tears. “My mother killed herself, unable to go on in this world…”  Joe’s voice grew soft. “I considered ending it as well. But I made a promise, to help as much as possible.”

          “And it was all for naught.” Izzy began to laugh slightly. “I may have made you, but you and the other digidestined made me first. I am not that Izzy you left to die back in camp. I am the Digimon Emperor!” Izzy turned his head, and fired a blast of energy. Gomamon, who was just getting up, opened his eyes just as the energy sailed towards him. He howled as the energy washed over him. White atoms floated gently away as Gomamon’s scream died in the hollow walls.

          “BASTARD!” Joe jumped at Izzy.

          Izzy’s hand whipped around from the deleted digimon, and grasped Joe’s neck. Joe grabbed Izzy’s arm as Izzy began to squeeze. “When you arrive in Hell.” Izzy squeezed even harder, cutting off Joe’s air supply. “Tell them Izzy sent you.”

          Joe smiled as blood trickled from his lips. Dropping one hand from Izzy’s neck, he placed it in his pocket, and pulled out a small remote. Joe had learned many things from the various members of the underground.  Electronics, radio signals, and explosives. He laughed as he pushed down on the trigger button. “Tell them yourself.” Joe coughed, shortly before he was engulfed in a massive explosion. 

The C-4 exploded with a deafening blast, setting of more explosions as the ammunition caught fire. The entire mountain shook as an entire square block of Izzy’s lair vanished from the face of the earth.

In the center of the raging inferno, a single figure slowly walked out of the blaze. “Not today Joe.” Izzy walked out of the blaze. “Not today.”
