Till There Was You
Chapter Nineteen
“Now, listen carefully, because I'm not going to repeat myself,” Lynxmon said.
Crouching on the ground before her, Jessie, James and Meowth waited for the Feline Digimon to elaborate. Behind them, the imposing figure of Pantheramon stood, watching them and ensuring they didn't try anything.
“We're looking for a Dragon Type Pokemon,” Lynxmon explained. “It doesn't matter which one so long as it's a Dragon.”
“What do you need a Dragon Pokemon for,” Jessie asked.
“That is none of your concern, human,” Pantheramon growled, causing them to flinch. “All you need to do is tell us where we can find one.”
“I don't suppose either of you have one,” Lynxmon asked.
“Um, I'm afraid we don't,” James said. “Dragon Pokemon are rare and among some of the strongest Pokemon around. We've never been lucky enough to get our hands on one.”
Pantheramon glanced down at Meowth. “I highly doubt you're a Dragon.”
“Not me,” Meowth said. “But I know where you can find one.”
“Go on,” Lynxmon prompted.
“There's this Pokemon trainer named Cynthia,” Meowth explained. “She's the Pokemon League Champion, the strongest trainer in this region. And it just so happens she has a Garchomp, which happens to be a Dragon Pokemon.”
“You don't say,” Lynxmon said. “And where can we find her?”
“Well, she'd either be at the Pokemon League or traveling around the Sinnoh Region,” Meowth replied.
“So you don't know for certain,” Pantheramon snarled. “You three are completely useless! I should end your miserable lives here and now!”
“Would you settle down,” Lynxmon yelled. “We're not going to settle anything by hacking them to pieces!” She turned her attention back to Team Rocket, her eyes narrowing. “Think carefully. Have you heard anything regarding this Cynthia's where abouts?”
They remained silent, trying to remember any details they had heard recently regarding Cynthia. With the threat of death hanging over their heads, they knew they had to come up with something and fast.
“Wait, I just remembered something,” Jessie spoke up. “I heard that Cynthia is going to be in Celestic Town.”
“Celestic Town,” Lynxmon said. “That's where those orbs were kept. Why would she go there?”
“She has an interest in the legends regarding Palkia and Dialga,” Jessie said. “No doubt she's there to study them.”
Pantheramon and Lynxmon moved off to the side to discuss what they had heard, leaving Team Rocket to themselves.
“Is Cynthia really in Celestic Town,” James whispered to Jessie.
“Not really,” Jessie replied. “I just made that up. But by the time they find that out, we'll be miles away from here.”
“Good plan, Jessie,” Meowth spoke up. “Oh, here they come.”
They turned their attention back to the two Digimon.
“Alright, we're heading to Celestic Town,” Lynxmon said.
“Great,” Jessie said. “Well, we'll just be on our way then. Good luck with whatever it is you're doing.”
Pantheramon glared at her. “You three are coming with us.”
“What,” James said.
“You heard me,” Pantheramon replied. “You three are going to guide us to this Celestic Town and point out Cynthia to us when we arrive.”
“B-But,” Jessie protested.
“It's either that, or you die,” Lynxmon pronounced. “Your choice.”
“Well, in that case,” James said. “Shall we get going?”
Lynxmon tied Team Rocket up to prevent them from escaping. With them secured, the two Digimon forced them to march.
“It could be days before we reach Celestic Town on foot,” Jessie said.
“Then I suggest you save your breath for walking,” Pantheramon said.
They moved on, Team Rocket scared out of their minds. They knew the moment they arrived and there was no Cynthia, then Pantheramon would kill them for sure.
“What are we going to, Jessie,” James whispered.
“I don't know,” she replied. “It's going to take a miracle to get us out of this.”
Solaceon Town/Ruins...
Mewtwo was the first to awaken. His eyes opened and for a moment he thought he had gone blind. Then he remembered where he was: The Solaceon Ruins. He had come here with Renamon to see the Unknown. The Unknown had then attacked him and Renamon, and then...What had happened after that? Everything was a blur from there.
He sat up and then created a glowing orb to light the area up. He gazed around, seeing no sign of the Unknown. He spotted Renamon lying nearby. He stood up and went over to her.
“Renamon? Are you alright,” he said, shaking her gently.
Renamon stirred and sat up, moaning and rubbing her head. “I...think so. What happened? I don't remember anything after the Unknown...Wait! Where are they?”
“They're gone,” Mewtwo said. “I can't sense their presence anymore.”
“What did they do to us,” Renamon asked, getting to her feet. “Why did they attack?”
“I don't think they attacked us,” Mewtwo speculated. “Considering we have no injuries and appear to be alright. Still, if that wasn't an attack, then what was it?”
“I'm amazed they overpowered you,” Renamon said. “Your psychic powers are the strongest I've ever seen.”
“I appreciate the compliment,” Mewtwo said. “But considering the vast number of Unknown that assailed us, even that was too much for me to repel. At any rate, I think we should get out of here.”
“No arguments here,” Renamon said. “I imagine the others are wondering where we are.”
They exited the ruins, leaving behind it's mysterious inhabitants.
A few moments later they returned to the campsite outside of town and were surprised to see their three Digimon companions were gone.
“That's strange,” Renamon said. “Where did they go?”
Mewtwo glanced around, wondering the same thing. Where had their friends gone? Exploring? Surely they wouldn't have just left without leaving a message at least. He looked up into the sky. Well, it was only early afternoon, so they would probably....Mewtwo started!
“Renamon,” he said. “When we arrived at Solaceon Town, it was evening time, right?”
“Yes, it was,” Renamon replied. “But what does...” She fell silent as she suddenly realized what he was implying. She, too, glanced upward. “Wait a minute! How can it be early when it was evening when we entered the ruins?”
“Perhaps we were out longer than I suspected,” Mewtwo surmised. “And if that's the case, then maybe our friends are out looking for us.”
“There you are!”
Mewtwo and Renamon turned to see Gatomon, Leomon, and BlackTigramon heading towards them. Gatomon halted in front of Renamon, relief evident on her face.
“Where have you two been,” she asked. “We were worried sick about you.”
“We were at the Solaceon Ruins,” Mewtwo explained.
“While we were there, we were attacked by some Pokemon called the Unknown,” Renamon added. “They knocked us out. We just came to a little while ago. Sorry we worried you. We only just realized we've been unconscious all night...”
“All night,” Leomon interrupted. “You two were gone longer than just one night. You've been missing for three days.”
The Digital World-Myotismon's Keep...
Emperor Leomon approached the foreboding gates. Just past them was the dark fortress belonging to the vampire king, Myotismon. Though Myotismon was just an Ultimate level Digimon, Emperor Leomon had a healthy respect for the undead Digimon and they had kept to their own territories. He was also aware that Myotismon could also Digivolve into the powerful Mega Level form, VenomMyotismon. Therefore, he would attempt to bargain with Myotismon for the Black Digi Pearl. Still, he was prepared to battle for it if need be.
Halting before the gates, he watched as the two giant Devidramon standing at the gate stirred. They growled at Emperor Leomon, approaching him aggressively. The Lion Digimon met their approach with no hesitation. Raising a claw, it began glowing with energy.
“SOVEREIGN FIST,” he shouted.
A massive orb of energy shot forth and slammed into one of the Devidramon, destroying it in a flash. The second Devidramon faltered, a little hesitant to attack after witnessing it's companion's demise.
“Really, now, was that necessary?”
Emperor Leomon looked up to see a hooded and cloaked Digimon wielding a scythe floating just above him. Icy blue eyes stared down at the Lion Digimon.
“Phantomon,” he greeted. “Your guards should know better to attack an unknown opponent.”
“They're just doing their job,” Phantomon replied, floating down further until he was level with Emperor Leomon. “But that aside, what brings the Beast King to my master's humble abode?”
“I've come to speak to your master,” Emperor Leomon said. “Is he in?”
“He's inside right now,” Phantomon said. The gates opened and he gestured towards the castle. “If you'll follow me.”
The Lion Digimon followed Phantomon, leaving the remaining Devidramon at the gate, greatly relieved it had survived.
Inside, the castle was dark, save for a few candles and torches. Cobwebs hung in the corners of the ceilings and a chill hung in the air. Emperor Leomon knew it was an unnatural chill, a chill that denoted the presence of supernatural forces. And the strongest source of that chill was further inside. Phantomon led him through several rooms and soon arrived at the master chamber. Resting in the center of the chamber was a large coffin. Emperor Leomon knew just what was inside.
“Master,” Phantomon addressed the coffin. “You have a visitor.”
The lid creaked open and Emperor Leomon saw a hand pushing it. Once the lid was out of the way, the occupant sat up. The Undead King of the Digital World stood up and stepped out of the coffin. He strode toward Emperor Leomon, never once making a sound.
“Well, well, Emperor Leomon,” he greeted. “It's been a long time.”
“Good to see you again, Myotismon,” Emperor Leomon replied. “Forgive me for dropping by unexpectedly, but there is a matter I wish to discuss with you.”
“Of course,” Myotismon said. “Shall we adjourn to my study?”
“I'll cut right to the point,” Emperor Leomon said, taking a seat in the study. “I am in need of a particular item. One that you currently possess. The Black Digi Pearl.”
“Hm. The Black Digi Pearl,” Myotismon mused, swirling a glass of wine. “A very rare item, hard to come by. I went to a lot of trouble to acquire it. Might I inquire what you want with it?”
“Lets just say it's vital to my plans,” Emperor Leomon said.
“Hmph,” Myotismon smirked. “You're not fooling me, Emperor Leomon. I know full well what your plans are. I've heard you've been seeking a way to penetrate the barriers between our world and the human world. Your portals haven't exactly gone unnoticed. Were you planning to share this information with me? Or with the rest of the Sovereign Council? I doubt they would be happy to learn of this.”
“I could care less what they think,” Emperor Leomon said. “They're content to rule their own domains. None of them are ambitious enough for what I have in mind.”
Myotismon laughed harshly. “So you think. You always were rather arrogant, old friend. You really think none of the others would jump at the chance to conquer another world? Or, is it because you don't want to share the spoils?”
Emperor Leomon leaped from his chair and stormed over towards Myotismon. One massive paw swiped the wine glass out of his hand as the Lion Digimon glared at the Vampire.
“I was the only one to seek the human world, Myotismon,” he growled. “I sought out every scrap of information, I implemented the plans needed to achieve my goals. Therefore the rights of conquering the human world are mine alone. The Digi Pearl is vital to my plans and I mean to have it.” He leaned in closer, bringing his face just a few inches from Myotismon. “Even if I have to pry it from your lifeless hands.”
The Vampire's face took on a harsh glare. “Take care, Emperor Leomon. You might be able to push your minions around, but not me. I do not fear you.” Then he smiled. “But if you want the pearl so badly, then you can have it.”
He snapped his fingers and a Bakemon appeared, bearing a small box. Myotismon took the box and opened it, revealing a perfect pearl, black as night. He handed it to Emperor Leomon.
“Consider it a token of our past camaraderie,” Myotismon said. “May it aid you in your conquest of the human world.”
“How generous,” Emperor Leomon said, suspicion evident in his voice. “Why give this to me just like that? What's the catch?”
“No catch,” Myotismon said. “Personally, I don't care that much for trinkets. After all, worldly possessions mean little to the undead. And as I said, a token of our past alliance.”
Emperor Leomon still looked unconvinced, but he pocketed the pearl nonetheless. “My thanks, Myotismon. Since you were gracious enough to give this to me, I invite you to join me in this campaign.”
“I think I'll pass,” Myotismon replied. “I am quite content with my own territory. But I feel compelled to warn you, Emperor Leomon, the other members of the council might not be as amicable about this as I am. Especially, Him.”
“I'll take my chances,” Emperor Leomon said. “Farewell, Myotismon.”
He turned and exited the study. After he was gone, Myotismon turned to a computer on his desk. Switching it on, he didn't have long to wait before the person on the other end answered.
“Did he take the pearl?”
“Oh, he took it alright,” Myotismon replied. “Though he was rather suspicious.”
“That's to be expected. Still, at least things can move forward now.”
“What I don't understand is why you shared this information with me,” Myotismon said. “What do you have to gain from this?”
“If things proceed as I think they will, then Emperor Leomon will end up destroying himself. And I say good riddance. He has become obsessed with his conquest of the human world that he's not thinking sensibly anymore. Frankly, I fear for my well-being, as well as that of a friend of mine. Besides, he is also acting against the Council, is he not? I felt it best to report it to you.”
Hm, a fair point,” Myotismon conceded. “Very well then, keep me informed of what happens.”
He switched the computer off and poured a new glass of wine. He wandered over to the window and gazed out over the dark land he called his domain. He spotted Emperor Leomon exiting through the gates and beginning his trip back to his own realm. Myotismon watched him leave and raised his glass in a mock salute.
“Farewell, old friend,” he said. “I doubt we will meet again.”
