I asked Demijoshuamon. "This fog is too thick for me to do more than eat it like soup." Demijoshuamon said. "And I can barely find a smell." Tabbymon said. "It's no good." I said, letting out a sigh. "This fog is thicker than an Ogremon's skull." "Ogremon?" Pinkie Pie asked. "Champion-Level, Virus-Type. A skilled fighter." I responded. "I told you about that Digimon last time I was here." "Oh, right." "Joshua, I still can't find anything." Demijoshuamon said. "What should we do?" Tabbymon asked. "Hmm." I said. "Demijoshuamon?" "Yes?" Demijoshuamon said. "You and I will scout ahead. Tabbymon, you and Pinkie Pie stay here until we contact you." "On it." Tabbymon said, letting out a purr. "Let's go." I said running into the fog. *** "No way!" Jeremy said. "Way! I've seen it happen before." Rainbow Dash said. "It can fit." "You are talking about fitting a massive thing into an awkwardly small hole." "I'm sure that Joshua wouldn't think it was that big." Pyrodramon said. "But I think Jeremy's right." "Of course you'd agree with him over me." Rainbow Dash said. "What are you carrying on about this time Rainbow?" Asked Applejack. "She keeps insisting that she can fit one of Infernodramon's fangs into a well." Jeremy responded. "And can you?" Twilight asked. "Of course not." Jeremy said. "Even when he was young, Infernodramon could easily be mistaken for a small hill. It's a wonder how the place we landed when we came to town wasn't flattened." "Are you sure you weren't thinking about that dream you had the night Joshua and Blizzarddramon left the last time they visited?" Rarity asked. *** "So, what do you think?" Demijoshuamon asked. I knew what he was asking about, but I took a few moments to think about it. "I feel..." I started. "That we had better keep going." We kept traveling through the fog for what felt like hours. As we went deeper into the fog, I got a sneaking suspicion that we were being watched from afar. We proceeded down a side path towards a bog, only to stop when we met an unexpected enemy. Puppetmon. "Well, well, well." Puppetmon said. "Who'd of thought that you would find me. Well, let's do this! Hippymon! Go for the girl." "We have to save them." Demijoshuamon said. "We can't get to them in time." I said. "We have to send the power to Tabbymon so he can digivolve." "Right." *** "It's true." Tabbymon said. "I don't think that it would be possible." Pinkie Pie said. "Well it is. And I can--" "What is it?" "Look out!" Tabbymon said as a bolt of blue lightning came striking down. "Tabbymon Digivolve to... Phantomjoshuamon!" "Oh you spiteful little fur ball!" Hippymon roared. "Hold on." Phantomjoshuamon said as he grabbed Pinkie Pie. "Ice Shuriken!" Phantomjoshuamon declared aiming the attack at a nearby tree, knocking it down. *** "Ready Demijoshuamon?" I asked. "Ready!" Demijoshuamon said. "Demijoshuamon Warp Digivolve to... Icedragonmon!" "Puppet Pummel!" Puppetmon roared. I was uncertain as to which variation it would be, but Icedragonmon managed to dodge it. With that menacing puppet on the lose, we'd have to be at our best. "Cold Wave!" Icedragonmon roared, losing a wave of frigid air from his maw. "Is that the best you've got?" Puppetmon boasted. "Drill Nose!" "Ice Ninja Blade Strike!" Phantomjoshuamon said, coming in the nick of time. "Thanks, Phantomjoshuamon." Icedragonmon said. "Any time." "You broke my nose." Puppetmon said, trying to hold back a sob. "You shall pay! Get 'em Hippymon!" "Right." Hippymon said. "Hippymon Warp Digivolve to... Arcticdramon!" "Phantomjoshuamon, go!" Icedragonmon said. "Get Pinkie Pie to safety! I'll handle Arcticdramon!" "You want me to get Jeremy?" Phantomjoshuamon asked. "Sure. We could use all the help." "Got it!" Phantomjoshuamon jumped into the tree-tops. "Now you die!" Arcticdramon roared. "Ice Stream of Chaos!" "Hades Force!" BlackWarGreymon roared boosting his X-Antibody form. "How! What!" Puppetmon stammered. "WHY!" "That's not all." BlackWarGreymon said. "Now!" "Right." WarGreymon said. "WarGreymon Ancient Digivolve to... The Ancient Dragon of courage: AncientGreymon!" "NO!" Arcticdramon roared. "IMPOSSIBLE!" Puppetmon whined. "Arcticdramon, Puppetmon." AncientGreymon started. "You are accused of terrorizing the local citizens. You will be deleted for your crimes. Omega Corona!" "NO!!!" Puppetmon shouted as his data was incinerated. "No! This isn't fair!" Arcticdramon said, turning tail and running. "I was supposed to be the one on top this time. I was supposed to absorb the power that Blizzarddramon has! I was--" "Going to be defeated for the billionth time this month!" I said. "Admit it, you can't beat us." "You may have won this battle, but the war ain't over." Arcticdramon roared in the distance. "Are you ok?" Jeremy asked, coming a bit too late. "And is BlackWarGreymon in his X-Anti-Body form?" "Yes, and yes." BlackWarGreymon answered. "And, is that...?" Infernodramon asked motioning towards AncientGreymon. "Yes." AncientGreymon said. "I have enabled the ancient spirit of flame inside me to burst out and change me into something stronger." "Ha!" Icedragonmon said. "BlackImperialdramon's gonna have an even harder time beating us now!"
