The Two Coronamons

Chapter 10

I wake up before everyone else, or at least I thought so.

"Ah, so you're awake!" A voice says behind me, scaring the shit out of me.

"AGH!" I exclaim as I turn around to see Gravimon.

"Sorry friend, but I just got to have a word with you!" He says and I follow him upstairs. He sits on a large throne that looks oddly comfy. "So, to start things off, I know you are leaving today. But, there is one thing I would like to ask of you."

"What is it?" I ask him.

"I was wondering if you could burden yourself with Lalamon." He says, frowning slightly.

"Why?" I ask him.

"She is a very adventurous digimon, and keeping her locked up here has really taken a toll on her happiness, which pains me as a dad. I know letting her go would hurt me but I also know that it would make her thrive and make me proud. So Derin, I have seen your character and would love for her to be on your digimon team. Would you do that for me?" He asks, sincerity lacing every word.

I nod my head. "Of course!" I say and out comes Lalamon from one of the many bookshelves.

"Oh my god!" She yells, zooming right at me and knocking me back a bit, my balancing skills flying out the window. "Thank you so much!" She squeals and goes to hug Gravimon as well. She flies back downstairs and me and Gravimon both nod at each other. I climb down the ladder and Whispered and Coronamon are up now because of Lalamon telling them everything. Whispered looks really tired and Coronamon's just smiling away. We all walk outside together and I look back to see Anubimon and Gravimon standing behind.

"Aren't you coming, Anubimon?" I ask and he looks to the ground and then back up.

"Derin, I've known you for about two weeks, and it has been great. Right now though, I would like to stay with my general and help him. He can't go through this alone. But I know how much power you hold and you are going to do great things." He says and nods.

"Thank you, Anubimon. But I'm going to miss you" I say, sadness creeping into my voice. Anubimon expands his arms and me and the others all hug him. After the hug he kneels down.

"Now listen Derin, I want you to head to the right of this tree. It will lead you to the beach area, and you bound to find another general there. I just bet on it!" He says enthusiastically. I smile back at him and nod.

"Got it!" I say and walk a bit away. "Thank you Gravimon and Anubimon!" We all yell.

"May our paths cross again!" Gravimon says waving us goodbye as we make our way to the right of the tree, after a few moments the tree's presence. Another lush jungle trip, here we come!

(MEANWHILE)

The lair is drenched in shadows. The silence breaks with the sound of heavy deep footsteps. The dark knight himself comes into view. Scurrying in front of him is a vampire digimon with combed short blonde hair. His blue outfit has a bat on his chest and he has a black cape on. His purple lips twist into a smile.

"Myotismon." Axeknightmon starts, "It's good to be back. That meddling human freed me but now he and his wretched digimon are on one obstacle of a path." He complains, his dark voice booming from the cave walls.

"What is he doing, my lord?" Myotismon asks.

"They are on their merry little path to warn all the ex dark generals about my newly rediscovered presence. Oh how irritating humans are." The Knight groans slamming the base of the ax on the ground, causing a slight rumble.
