//------------------------------// // Ballroom blitz // Story: Digi-Ponies // by Seanzilla115 //------------------------------// "...Sheesh, what's with this place?" Huckmon blinked a bit as he, RD, Noir, and Blanc walked through a rather fancy lookingcity, the buildings having a near medieval feel to them, "It's like something out the dreamland of a super stiff." the digimon added with a slight tone of disgust in his voice. "I know...even the Digimon here look stuck up," RD added as she saw a pair of fancy looking Digimon walk by. "We must have taken a wrong turn somewhere," Huckmon added, "This has got to be some mistake with the universe. right? Someone as great as me doesn't fit into a boring place like this!?" "Calm down, Huckmon. Blanc's looking this place up right now," Noir stated as the smaller of the two Nun-like Digimon was looking through a guidebook/map of sort. "Ahh! Here it is!" Blanc spoek up, catching the three's attention, "This place is Royal city, home to Princemamemon an…" "Snk! I'm sorry, but what did you just say?" RD snickered along with Huckmon. "...Princemamemon a…" Blanc began before Rainbow Dash and Huckmon began to crack up. "Wh...what kind of name is that?!" RD laughed. "Hahahaha! I feel so sorry for this Digimon...ah man! What kind of name is 'Princemamemon'?!" Huckmon cackled, rolling on the floor. "It says here he's the ruler of this place," Blanc spoke up, still looking through the map/guidebook, "He must be someone important to rule a place like this." "Yeah…" Huckmon began, still snickering as he flipped back to his feet, "Haha...but I just...I just can't take a guy like that with that type of name seriously." "Regardless, we need to find someone to give us directions to the next city," Noir spoke up before looking at Rainbow Dash, who had just gotten up, "And find out any info on your friends." "Right, right," RD and Huckmon sighed in exasperation unison. In their short travels together, they had learned that two had a similar approach to things they didn't care for. They acted like little kids. "Well...who in this place could give us directions?" Rainbow asked as she looked around, "Hey you!" she suddenly shouted pointing to someone. "Hmm?" a fancy looking, humanoid flower like Digimon blinked a bit as she turned her attention to the tomboy, "Yes?" Rainbow cleared her throat, before speaking "Do you know where the nearest town is? We need to get there as quick as possible." "...No…" the flower huffed as she began to walk away, "I don't speak to someone who wears such ugly clothing." "Ugly?" Rainbow asked as she looked her cloths over, "These look okay to me...I think?" she said out loud, not wearing clothes as often as real humans actually did since she had no real frame of reference. "I think they look ok," Huckmon commented,"...though, they could be about 10 ,maybe 20% cooler." "Ah, what do you know? You don't even wear cloths!" Rainbow argued. "I still know more than you ever will!" Huckmon argued before the two huffed and turned away from each other. "Ugh...not this again," Noir facepalmed. "Don't worry, Noir-neechan. I'm sure they'll make up in no time," Blanc assured. "True, they do have a sibling like routine already set up." Noir nodded in agreement. "Anyway, how do we ask these snooty jerks for directions, let alone anything if they snuff us for how I'm dressed?" Rainbow asked as she cooled down. "Hmm...oh!" Blanc gasped, "Maybe if we find a someone who knows about clothes, we can disguise ourselves and blend in!" "Disguise?" Huckmon blinked. "...Blend...in?" Rainbow asked as she looked at how well and fancily dressed everyone is, she then shuddered in fear and disdain, "Sorry but no." "Huh?" "I don't do fancy," RD huffed, "Besides, where are we gonna find someone who knows about clothes?" --- "Achoo!" Rarity sneezed a bit, her and YukiRenamon within the same town RD's group was in, "...Well that was rather odd." "What?" YukiRenamon asked, walking beside Rarity. "Are you falling ill?" "I hope not," Rarity replied before looking around the place a bit, "Where are we anyway? Not that I mind the look, but still…" "This is Royal city," YukiRenamon answered quickly. "It is one of the more...what's the word...proper cities we are likely to come across." "I see…" "Yes. This place is ruled by PrinceMamemon a.." YukiRenamon began before rarity froze up. "Prince...did you say…;prince;?" the former unicorn asked. "His name is PrinceMamemon...yes," YukiRenamon replied with a nod. "..We must see him." "Eh?" the snow vixen blinked before blinking once more as Rarity suddenly gained a lovestruck look on her face, "...Rarity?" she asked in both concern and...fear, "Are you perchance a...romantic type?" Rarity didn't' seem to be paying attention as she was busy day dreaming. She didn't know what PrinceMamemon looked like, but she imagined he looked handsome, charming, fit, all the qualities a prince should have..unlike that other prince she once had a crush on, Prince Blue Blood. "Rarity...Rarity?" YukiRenamon continued asking as she waved her arms before her face, "I don't think I'll be able to get her to move anytime soon…" "I'm serious, Blanc! There's no way in Tartarus am I wearing anything fancy or stuck up!" the voice of a certain tomboy snapped. Said voice however was able to snap Rarity out of her dream like state. she shook her head before she turned to see said Tomboy ranting to a white dressed girl while a girl dressed in black and a small dragon like creature just watched with sweat dripping down the sides of their heads. 'Wait..it can't be...' the designer thought before speaking up, "Rainbow Dash?" RD stopped in her ranting when she heard the familiar voice, the tomboy turning her head to see her, "..Rarity? is..that you?" "Rainbow, Do you know that chick?" Huckmon asked as he poked his head into the scene. "..I do but..just to make sure…" RD paused, "Hey Rares..i heard somepony calling your dresses tacky." "T...Tacky?! Why I never! Who is this rude pony that calls my beautiful dresses tacky?!" "Yeah, that's her," RD chuckled, "No pony honestly, I just need to be sure you where you." she replied back. "Hmph! Well you shouldn't have said something like that, Rainbow Dash," Rarity huffed as she turned her head to the left, crossing her arms a bit. "Sorry, sorry," she grinned as she scratched the back of her head, she then noticed YukiRenamon, "Hm..that a new friend of yours?" "..Why yes," Rarity nodded, having calmed down as she motioned to the snow vixen, "This is YukiRenamon, my partner if you will." "Partner?...Snk! didn't know you swung th.." "Don't you dare finish that, Rainbow Dash!" Rarity barked, blushing a bright red. "Yeesh, come on. It's just a jokem" she replied back with a weak smile, she then bent down and picked up Huckmon, "Well in that case, this is my partner, Huckmon." she introduced, "And this is Blanc and Noir," she motioned to the two behind her. "Greetings/Hi," Noir and Blanc greeted, the black nun nodding a bit while the white one waved. "Oi! Put me down!" Huckmon complained before getting free of RD's arms. "I told you I don't like being picked up!" "Sorry..yeesh," RD grumbled a bit before looking back at Rarity, "So..what brings you here?" "Well we came into town to see if we could get a lead to find you and the others." Rarity explained, "But I honestly didn't expect to well...run into you this soon." "Same here," Rainbow Dash admitted, "We're also trying to find any directions to the next town, but…" she paused as she began to growl a bit in annoyance, "But these jerks won't even give us any directions because of what i'm wearing!" "We keep telling you if you try and blend in, things would go more smoothly." "No way! I keep telling you I don't do fancy!" Rainbow Dash argued. "Ano, Rarity was it?" Huckmon asked. "Hmm? Yes?" Rarity asked, looking at the small, dragon digimon. "How did you and your other friends put up with this?" he asked bluntly as he pointed to RD with his tail. "We've managed," Rarity answered before what RD said registered in her head, "Hold on...didn't you wear a few…" "That was for a few occasions. one being the Grand Galloping gala so i could meet the wonder Bolts, two being for that wedding, and three for Twilight's Coronation," Rainbow dash countered. "Those and only similar situations are the only way I'll break that rule, but other then that I don't do Fancy!" "Well I'm tired of having to be stuck in this city," Huckmon sighed. "Besides, if you don't want to put on a dress, then why not dress up like a dude? I mean your body doesn't scream femininity." "...What do you mean?" Rainbow dash frowned as she glared at the dragon. "Well...when I compare you to your friend…" Huckmon said as he put Rainbow and Rarity side by side, an arrow then formed beside Rainbow that went straight up, while the arrow that formed next to Rarity had curves that matched her own, "She's a lot more..feminine and curvy compared to you...especially around the chest area." "You…!" RD began before she looked at Rarity, mainly her chest before looking back at hers. "And my point is proven," Huckmon grinned proudly before RD began growling at him as she was ready to strangle the dragon like Digimon. "...UGH!" the tomboy growled in annoyance as she bent to the ground, a small, depressing aura around her, "Darn it…" "She's...depressed?!" Almost everyone present said in shock at this outcome. "...Know what…" RD spoke up as she got up and turned, "I don't need any freakin big..uh..orb things on my chest! Besides, they'd probably slow me down if I had my wings still." "Well that was a quick recovery," Noir sweatdropped. "Well guess she still is the fastest thing I know," Rarity replied with a slight smile at how quickly Rainbow went from depressed to her default nature, "..Oh! that reminds me, YukiRenamon, let us be off. We still need to head into that castle." "Huh? Why...oh no.." Rainbow Dash facepalmed, "Don't tell you're going to see...snrk. PreinceMamemon..are you?" "Snrk…" Huckmon started to laugh but he covered his mouth with his front claws, keeping it inside. "And what is wrong with that?" Rarity frowned. "Rares...I don't think that'll be a good Idea. Besides, this guy might be another prince Blu…" RD began before feeling a strong killing intent coming from Rarity. "Don't….mention...his...name…" Rarity growled, her voice distorted for a moment. "R….right…" Rainbow Dash sweatdropped as she shrunk down to deformed size as she looked up at Rarity, "Mums the word." "Good," Rarity huffed, he voice back to normal. "Wh...what was that?!" Huckmon exclaimed as he and Blanc hid behind Noir, both nuns holding up a cross towards Rarity. "New to me," YukiRenamon shrugged, not even phased by what just happened. In truth..she had a feeling it was Rarity's 'other self' that popped up for a moment there, but...this just felt like ones regular killer intent when something you really don't want to talk about comes up. "m...maybe w...we can make this work…" Blanc spoke up, catching everyone's attention as she and Huckmon left the safety of Noir's back, "R...Rarity wants to head into the castle, and we need information and directions." "No no no no no no, NO!" Rainbow argued as she put the dots together, "I am not going to some snooty castle just so Rarity can meet some prince dude with a comedic name!" she snapped as Huckmon began to snicker to himself, "So count me out!" "But Rainbow, we…" "Nuh uh! No way! You're not going to get me in a stupid, fancy…!" --- "Dress…" the tomboy grumbled, wearing a dress that was a dark blue in color and appeared to be strapless but had a yellow pendant in the front of her chest that had a light blue halter strap around the back of her neck before it billows out into a strip of cloth over the front of her dress and her sides. Her hair was pulled back into a ponytail while she had her bangs combed around the right side of her face while she had two braids along the sides of her head framing her face made up of the orange and yellow colored locks of her hair. "You caved in surprisingly easily," Huckmon noted, sitting in a dog like manner next to her as the two were within the main hall within the castle. "Don't remind me," Rainbow dash frowned, "...And where the heck is Rarity, Blanc, Noir, and Yukireanmon?!" "Heck if I know…" Huckmon shrugged before noticing four figures walking up, "..Speak of whom…" he began before he spotted them and let his jaw drop disproportionately to the floor. Rarity was wearing a black dress that was slim and form fitting, perhaps too form fitting around certain curves, it had two straps that went over her shoulders and were covered in white beads, and connected to front of her gown by two blue diamond like pendants. Her hair was pulled back into a loose bun with a fan like clip keeping it bound, she the bangs of her hair swept over the right side of her face while she had a lock of hair framing the left with a diamond like hair clip set just above her left ear. YukiRenamon was wearing a kimono that was a soft ice blue while Blanc and Noir wore a dress that was similar to Rarity's, Blanc's being a soft white while Noir's was a deep midnight black. "Huckmon...you'll catch flies like that." Rainbow chided as she bonked him on the head making him return to normal. "Right right…" Huckmon grumbled, rubbing his head a bit. "I'm rather surprised Rarity-san was able to make these so quick," Blanc noted as she looked at her dress a bit. "Well it's not that surprising. This is her job back home," Rainbow replied as she stood back up. "Eh? really?" "Yup," Rainbow replied as she put her hands behind her head, "She has to be one of the best I know. But doesn't change the fact this isn't my style." "I see...Rarity-san, did you…?" Blanc began before blinking when she noticed Rarity was daydreaming again, "..Rarity-san?" "...Something tells me she's daydreaming about what the prince looks like..again," YukiRenamon spoke, sweat dropping a bit. "Seriously…" Rainbow sighed as she walked up to her. "Rares wake up!" she shouted as she started shaking her rather roughly. "This is not the time to daydream!" "huh? Wha…?" Rarity blinked a bit, snapping out of it, "what happened?" "You were daydreaming on what the prince looked like!" "You do realize he may not even be human like?" Huckmon added. "...a girl can dream...can't she?" "Ugh…" RD facepalmed before a fanfare was heard. "Well this looks like the moment of truth," Noir said as they(along with the rest of the Digimon within the room* all turned to the origin of the fanfare. "Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, his royal majesty! the golden prince himself, PrinceMamemon!" a Goblimon(?) in armor declared as he and a few more motioned to the doorway. The Door then opened up and almost instantly Rainbow Dash and Huckmon had to cover their mouths to hold the fits of hysteria in. Because the figure standing there was a yellow sphere with arms and legs, said limbs clothed in blue sleeves, with white gloves and black dress boots adorning the ends, his shoulders had golden yellow epaulettes, that kept a red cape attached to his back, said cape had a white interior with a cur lined collar that stuck up, it also had a gold crown on top of his head, but his face just made Rainbow Dash and Huckmon's attempts to hold in the laughs all the more harder, he had two large eyes with thick eyebrows and spiral marks on what appeared to be his cheeks and a cleft lip as he flashed a smile his teeth having a glint as he did. "...Rarity, he's a improvement over blueblood!" RD laughed. Rarity didn't respond as she gawked, her eyes blank while her mouth was a gape. Her...her vision of what the prince looked like..shattered. She felt like she had turned to stone right on the spot. "...Think we would've saved her a lot of trouble if we told her what Mamemons look like?" Blanc whispered to Noir. "Probably best she figured it out this way." YukiRenamon said having heard them. "I'm sorry…" Huckmon said getting everyone's attention before he fell to his back laughing hysterically, "Bwahahahahahahahah! Oh my god...Bwahahaha!" he went on as he rolled across the floor flailing his legs about. "..Who dares to laugh within my presence?!" "..." RD blinked for a few moments before she began to laugh hysterically as well, 'Th..that voice! S..so high pitched!' "Uh...they have mental problems?" Noir tried to argue, she herself trying not to giggle. "I'm not sure…" YukiRenamon sighed, rubbing the bridge of her nose a bit. "...Hpmh! whatever," the prince scoffed before clearing his throat, "Greetings, peasants! It is I, PrinceMamemon! You all should be lucky to see me within your vision!" "Ahaha...hah…" Rainbow sighed as she finally got over her laughing fit, "Ah oh man, this is just adding fuel to the flames ain't it, Rares?" she chuckled poking Rarity with her elbow. "Ah...ahh…." Rarity whined quietly, her mouth still agap. "He's got just as much of an ego as 'you-know-who,' don't he?" she added with another chuckle, "Ah but in all seriousness, we've shattered your hopes and dreams so can we get directions now." "...r...ri…" "What is this meaning of this?!" The group(including rarity once she snapped out of it) turned to see PrinceMamemon givign a death glare to a small, chef like Digimon. "What is this..this..garbage you dare to bring into my castle?!" the prince demanded as he held a burger and pressed it against the chefs face. "Uh...a burger…" the chef replied nervously.While the figure himself was not very imposing, he still held a position of power. "I know that! How dare you bring hick food here! Guards!" PrinceMamemon shouted, "Send this fool to the dungeon! It is my pet's feeding time anyways!" "Hey wow-wow!" Rainbow shouted in angered shock, "He can't just do that over something so stupid!" "Agreed! I've seen and done my share of stupid! And that takes the cake!" Huckmon added in equal outrage, in truth he found the burgers quite good. "That's how things are around here," a voice spoke, catching the group's attention to see a small, plant like Digimon in a maid outfit. "..What do you mean?" Rarity couldn't help but ask. "Ever since he gained control of the throne, PrinceMamemon has done anything he wanted without any comeuppance…" the maid sighed, It is even worse since he made a deal with Jupitermon..in exchange for not touching Royal Town...PrinceMamemon can treat anyone anyway he wants..especially with that new pet of his." "Pet?" YukiRenamon asked, that part being what bothered her the most at the moment. "Devidramon..a rather nasty demonic dragon," the maid repleid before gulping, "The prince's father had him sealed away...until the prince let him out with Jupitermon's help." "What?!" they all gasped in unison. "Kono…" Huckmon growled in anger as he sent a glare to the prince, "I got a few choice words for him. And by that, I mean I'm going to mess that goofy face of his up!" "Save some for me, Huckmon," Rainbow Dash growled, cracking her knuckles as she was ready to knock that prince's lights out. "No promises…" Huckmon frowned as he bent down ready to pounce but both he and Rainbow were grabbed by YukiRenamon, who dragged them away from before they could start a scene, "Hey! What's the big idea?!" "I was stopping you from doing something really stupid." the snow vixen relied as she kept dragging them till the entire group where in an empty hall she then chucked the two to the ground making them fall in a comedic heap. "What do you mean?! That jerk had no right to…!" Rainbow Dash began. "It is unwise to cause a scene with so many guards about...and second, PrinceMamemon is a Mega level," the snow vixen explained. "...Mega...wha?" the tomboy blinked. "It means he's more evolved than us, you know power wise." Huckmon replied simply as if that where all there was to it. "..." "...ugh, let me explain," Noir spoke up, "There's six levels a Digimon can have. Baby, In-Training, Rookie, Champion, Ultimate, and Mega, the last one being the strongest level a Digimon can obtain." "So what that dork is stronger than all of you?!" Rainbow Dash asked in shock. "Yeah. And just to inform you, there's a level beyond Mega we call Super Ultimate. Thankfully, that prince is incapable of obtaining a status like that." "Alright then...so then what do we do to get him for being a jerk?" "Power is one thing. Knowing how to use it is another." Blanc informed, "Just because he is a higher level it does not make him all powerful, in fact even the rare no level Digimon can surpass even Mega levels such as the Royal Knights...if they train hard enough." "Wow really?" Rainbow Dash asked before she grabbed Huckmon and lifted him up. "Does that mean you could do something like that?" "Beats me...I barely understand it much myself…" he admitted. "Umm...excuse me.." a servant digimon a cutemon asked the gang, "But I could not help but overhear are you a Huckmon?" "Hmm...why yes I am...is...are...whatever you get the point it's a yes." Huckmon nodded shaking his own self induced confusion off. "At long last! Please, overthrow Princemamemon!" "Huh?!" they all gawked. "I mean, you are a Huckmon...hai?" "Uh..I am. But..what does…?" "Hey, what's so special about this guy already?" Rainbow asked as she held Huckmon up. "Huckmon is the legendary savior of the digital world Gankoomon-sama spread word that when injustice is around Huckmon will be there to weed out the evil and unruly." "Eh?!" The girls of the gang all gawked as they looked at the Dragon like Digimon Rainbow was holding like a puppy dog. "Wait this guy?" Rainbow Dash asked getting a nod in response as she turned Huckmon to face her. "Why didn't you tell me about this!?" "I didn't even know!" Huckmon argued in equal shock. "Yes even your nickname strikes fear in even the mighty Jupitermon." "Nickname?" "Royal 13." "Hey! How come no one told me I had an awesome numbered nickname!?" Huckmon shouted, making some of the girls sweatdrop that this was what made him outraged. "That's what registers the most with you?" YukiRenamon asked as she leaned in with the others for them to all stare at the dragon like digimon. "Well I already knew I was great, I just had no clue I was this famous." he shrugged. "I believe you're looking for Infamous given how the world seems to be at the moment." Rarity corrected. "Still got famous in it!" Huckmon smiled. "My, it's almost like talking to a male version of you Rainbow." Rarity added. "Wait wait...something just occured to me...if Jupitermon fears you...won't he be looking for you?" YukiRenamon asked Huckmon. "Ah…." Huckmon began to think about it for a second before his eyes became blank. "Oh come on you choose now to shut up?!" Noir and Rainbow shouted as they both began to shake and choke Huckmon. "Gah! Mercy mercy!" "Who dares makes a ruckus in my presence!?" Everyone stopped what they were doing for a second and looked up to see the Prince, but they just ignored him and went back to torturing Huckmon. "Don't you ignore me!" Princemamemon barked, his eyes blank and teeth shark like. "Shut up!" Rainbow Dash shouted her head tripling in size actually sending him back with the sheer volume of her voice. "Gah! H..how dare you bark at me! Guards!" Within a second, the girls and Huckmon were surrounded by a large group of guards. "Seize them, and send them to the dungeon!" "Crud!" Rainbow shouted as they all took a step back finally letting Huckmon into full view. "Oh thank god I'm free all I could smell was perfume, I thought my nose was going to burns itself off!" Huckmon stated dramatically as he shook his head. "Less talk, more fight, now!" "Huh?" Huckmon blinked before he looked at the guards, "Ah so you guys want to party with me, alright I'll warn you here and now I prefer the wild life!" he said as he crouched down he then jumped before he crashed into the first guard sending him stumbling down, he then pushed off with his front legs before he aimed his tail at another group of them, "Ikuze!" he shouted as it began to spin like a drill, he then crashed into them sending the guards all flying away making a path through them. "Whoo! Go Huckm-!" RD began before a guard tried to grab her, making her duck as she headbutted the guard from behind, "Nice try, buddy!" "Fif Slash!" Huckmon roared as he slashed his front claws sending even more of the guards flying away several of them PrinceMamemon. He then charged before he tackled into another guard before using him as a stepping stone to jump into the air over more of the guards. "Baby Flame!" he shouted unleashing a stream of fire on them the heat knocking them all out. "Now that was hot." He chuckled as he used his tail to trip another guard sending him tumbling into a second guard knocking them both out. "Its almost like I don't even have to try." he added as he performed a backflip using his tail to smack another guard as if with an uppercut sending him flying back. "You know I feel bad for you guys. Tell you what; I'll turn around and you all gang up on me." Huckmon offered as he turned around and wagged his tail, "Come on~! Once in a life time offer right here." he added as several guards took this chance only for Huckmon to straight his tail out, "Teen Ram!" he called out as he shot back as his tail spun like a drill and his attack drove through the hoard of guards who tried to gang up on him. "Okay...so maybe I lied." he chuckled as most of the guards had been decimated. "You….you...you decimated all my guards!" PrinceMamemon gawked. "Well duh!" Huckmon replied as he faced the prince. "They all stink at fighting! I bet the only thing they've done for you is throw poor innocent people in the dungeon." he said with a growl to his voice. "..You...you….you cur!" Princemamemon growled, his entire body turning a deep, angry red. "Why thank you!" Huckmon said proudly, "I am the cur among curs!" he said dramatically as he stood on his back legs. "Now fight me!" he said as he began charging at the prince who got on his knees crying? Huckmon immediately pushed his legs forward stopping his charge. "Wait...are you seriously crying?" he asked. "Please don't hurt me!" "Hurt you….?" He asked with a twitch to his eye, "Kono…" he growled before he spun on his legs and whipped his tail hitting the prince sending him into the wall. "You should be ashamed to be the level you are and fall to your hands and knees so easily!" he stated in outrage. "And worse you ask me for mercy when you have done so many awful things to innocent Digimon just because they upset you!" he went on, "Baby Flame!" he roared shooting flames at the prince. "...heh…" PrinceMamemon smirked underneath his facade, "Smily Warhead!" "Smily wh…?" --- "Uh…" Huckmon groaned a bit, his eyes replaced with swirls as he and the girls were bounded in chains. "How could you lose to a wimp like him?!" RD exclaimed. "He got me by surprise! okay?!" Huckmon argued. "How the heck was I to expect that!?" "Clearly we were too soft with you on your training," Noir frowned, "You're getting ten times the dose." "Aw come on~!" Huckmon complained worming around in the chains that kept him from moving. "Silence!" Princemamemon shouted, sitting within his throne, which was pretty much all golden, "For harming me and my guards..I sentence you all to thee dungeon!...except…" he paused before pointing at Rarity, "You." "Me?" "You will be my bride!" "Eh?!" "Oh this should be good," Rainbow Dash grinned a bit as she relaxed and waited for the show to begin. "Most of the women of this town bore me. You on the other hand...are quite the beauty. Thus, you shall be my bride and queen! Together, we will make this town the utopia of all the Digital World!" "Wh...I...I would never even dream of marrying someone as ugly as you!" Rarity snapped. "...Then how about a deal? You marry me, and I'll..let one of your friends live and be your personal servant," PrinceMamemon offered. "You honestly have no chivalry, do you?" Rarity frowned, "How can such an evil thing such as you even begin to call yourself a prince?" "Because...I obtained the throne from my father after his...'accident.'" "...Wait...you mean you…?" Rarity began with wide eyes, anger starting to boil in her as a faint, dark aura briefly appeared around her. "Ah…" Huckmon began to whine, "It hurts so much…." he complained. "What?" "The sound of him talking…" he explained. "One more word out of you, and i'll feed you to my pet, personally," PrinceMamemon warned, not noticing the dark aura that was slowly creeping up Rarity's body. The former unicorn never met someone so..so vile in her left. This so called prince...he...he was even worse than Blue Blood! "So then, my dear...do we have a deal?" PrinceMamemon asked, "You become my bride and I'll let your friend live and become your servant?" "Why you…" Rainbow Dash growled as she and YukiRenamon both struggled against their restraints. "Rainbow Dash..YukiRenamon..stop," Rarity ordered, making the two stop, "...I'll handle this so called prince personally." "Huh?" RD blinked before she and the rest of the Digimon were nearly blown back a large pulse of dark energy. "Wh..what is this?!" PrinceMamemon exclaimed as he struggled to stay on his throne. The Burst of darkness seemingly becoming even stronger and stronger until it was too much to handle and the Prince in title was sent flying off his throne. The Walls that the chains where attached to where shattered in turn freeing everyone. The four Digimon that were freed landed on their feet as YukiRenamon caught Rainbow Dash and let her down on the ground. "Ahh...much better," a voice spoke, one YukiRenamon recognized while RD paled a bit. "'Oh no...y..you gotta be kidding me...' the tomboy thought in shock as she slowly turned to the sight before her, "No way…" she gasped at what she saw. "Whoa…" Huckmon gawked at the display of power. "Her again…" YukiRenamon frowned, 'That Nightmare...' "Again?" RD asked upon hearing that, "What do you mean again? You mean Rarity did this once already?!" "Yes…" "Aw great! Just when I thought that dang Nightmare Force was finally gone!" "Gone?" the snow vixen's turn to ask came. "Long story." "Wh...wh...what are you?!" Princemamemon demanded, fear in his voice as he hid behind his throne, scared of the killing intent Nightmare Rarity was unleashing...and she wasn't even trying too. Nightmare Rarity developed an amused look in her eyes that mixed with a dangerous one as well. "Why isn't it obvious?" she asked raising one of her hands up. "I'm a nightmare," she said with a mischievous laugh. "Let's hope you don't wake up too soon," she added as she raised her arm forward and unleashed a powerful pulse of darkness that destroyed the throne Princemamemon used as a shield, making the prince scramble back in fear now that his sanctuary was gone. "St...stay back! i..I warn you! D..don't make me unleash my pet on you!" Nightmare Rarity chuckled as she faded away into what looked like black mist, for a second the arrogant prince let a small sigh of relief free from his lips. "Now now, no need to be so scared...no one really gets hurt in a...nightmare," her voice said from behind the prince. "GAHAHAHA!" Princemamemon screamed as he jumped back in fright, seeing Nightmare Rarity staring down at him. "See. You're not hurt...yet…" she smiled as dark mist began to form from behind her. "Come now. What happened to your holier-than-thou personality? This scared infant one is so boring to scare don't you know," she added as the mist began to encircle the prince. "..Th...that's it! I warned you! D..Devidramon!!!!" he screamed in fear as the dark mist completely enveloped him only a muffled scream escaping the dark mist. But a hole in the ground opened as something flew out of the ground and landed before Rainbow and the four Digimon by her side. Standing before them was a tall pitch jet black colored Digimon, its body seemed both dragon like and Gargoyle like in appearance, its legs where long and powerful with three large clawed toes, it had a long tail with club like end to it's tail, its tail was covered in bindings and the base of the tail seemed to be stitched to it's body, its body was thin but powerfully built as well, its shoulders seemed to be padded by natural shell like skin, its left shoulder had skull like marking engraved into it, while its right had spikes poking out, its long arms where gangly and had leather bindings over it's forearms, he had red colored claws while the back of its left hand had a symbol etched on to it, it had two set of wings extending from its back two smaller ones lower on it's back that appeared to be vestigial in size, and he had two larger wings higher on his back from its shoulder, that seemed to be worn and torn with holes in them and wrinkle/ridges that gave a feathered design, finally its lizard like head rose as its two pairs of crimson red eyes glared at the four Digimon and one Pegasus turned human standing before it, two small wing like ears twitched as it listened to the sounds of their hearts beating, its grey mouth slowly opened as razor sharp teeth where licked by the red tongue in its mouth as the dangerous jaw hungered. The Digimon roared in primal rage as its foul breath reached the noses of the five standing before it. "..Oh man...that's a BIG dragon," RD gulped a bit while Nightmare Rarity…she wasn't even phased by it. "That's no dragon it's some kind of demonic beast from the pits of the underworld!" Huckmon shouted as he put his hands to the side of his face. "I don't know whether I should be scared, or excited because I get to fight this thing!" "..Dash dear?" N. Rarity spoke up, "Why don't you, YukiRenamon, and your little dragon deal with it?" she then turned her gaze back towards the shaking Princemamemon, "I'm not done with him yet." "Oh come on!?" Rainbow Dash complained as she put her head in her hand. "Seriously you awaken dark powers and I still need to deal with this…? Alright Huckmon you get your wish, go get em!" she ordered pointing at Devidramon. "...Digivolve me first, and ya got a deal," Huckmon grinned in excitement as he stood straight waiting for the transformation. "Oh. Thank you for reminding me," N. Rarity spoke up as she held her Digivice up, which was now a dark purple and pitch black color, "Rainbow Dash?" "..uh..r..right," RD nodded a bit as she pulled her own Digivice out. --- =HUCKMON/YUKIRENAMON-SHINKA!= =BAOHUCKMON!= =FROSTKYUUBIMON!= --- With that the two flashed and evolved into their next forms and stomped the ground as the two newly evolved Digimon glared at the demonic dragon Digimon. Devidramon roared in confusion as it crouched down ready to attack, but it was beaten to the punch quite literally as BaoHuckmon slammed his right claw into the demon dragon digimon sending him stumbling back as Devidramon tried to get back to his feet, FrostKyuubimon jumped over BaoHuckmon and then slammed into the demonic dragon from above keeping him pinned to the floor. BaoHuckmon raised his arms as crimson flames began to pour from his mouth, "Burn Flame!" he roared as he unleashed the flames just as FrostKyuubimon blurred out of the flames path letting Devidramon get enveloped by flames that sent the demonic dragon crashing into a wall that soon began to melt over Devidramon making it roar in pain as its skin was seared by the flames and molten stone that fell around it. "Did that get him?" Rainbow Dash asked as she, Noir and Blanc took covered behind a pillar. After a moment of silence, Devidramon roared as it bursted from the rubble, not caring its skin was being burnt. "Oh, come on!" Rainbow Dash cried as BaoHuckmon slashed the demonic dragon with his claws, sending it tumbling back with each blow. He then ducked out of the way as FrostKyuubimon tackled into Devidramon before she flipped back and used the Digimon as a stepping stone with all four of her legs before pushing and jumping away making Devidramon stumble back before BaoHuckmon charged again as he swung his left claw hitting the demonic dragon across the jaw sending it stumbling back even more before BaoHuckmon turned and swung his tail allowing the blade to slash Devidramon across the chest sending him flying back as a red streak formed in the air from the slash of his tail. Devidramon was sent tumbling and rolling back across the ground until it hit a wall. FrostKyuubimon then pressed on as she charged and extend all of her tails straight back before slamming them into the ground and used the force to help jump forward before tucking forward like a ball and eventually begin to roll and then finally crash into Devidramon like a cannonball sending him through the wall. "GRAAAAAGGGGH! EVIL EYE!" Devidramon roared as it unleashed a dark crimson red beam from all four of its eyes. "Burn Flame!" BaoHuckmon roared as he unleashed a burst of crimson flames but the beams proved too strong as they dispersed the flames before two beams hit both evolved Digimon sending them flying back with little resistance into the wall and out the other side. "Ah...I feel like I was hit by an entire building…" BaoHuckmon groaned as Devidramon charged and crashed into him as the two dragons began to bite and claw at each other violently and crash into walls in the process. FrostKyuubimon quickly shook her head to rid herself of the temporary daze before shouting to Baohuckmon, "Move!" "Got it!" BaoHuckmon replied as he pushed Devidramon off him. "Togetsuryu!" FrostKyuubimon shouted as ice blue flames engulfed her, changing into the shape of a dragon as it charged forward at Devidramon. "GRAAOOOHHH!" The digimon roared in response as it raised its arms up "CRIMSON NAILS!" he roared as he jumped forward and crossed his arms leaving multiple red streaks in a Large X pattern before him he then crashed into the ice blue flames before it exploded large icy mist as FrostKyuubimon was sent to the ground before BaoHuckmon caught her in his claws. Devidramon landed on the ground as he was caught in a thick layer of ice. "You ok?" Baohuckmon asked the nine tailed snow vixen. "I will live…" she replied as BaoHuckmon set her down to stand on her own four legs. "Did we get it?" the good dragon Digimon asked, still worried as he raised his claws incase. "..G...GRAAAAGGGGGGGHHHH!" Devidramon roared as the ice shattered, the demonic dragon roaring before it fell to one of its knees. "Seems it's still at it." FrostKyuubimon said as the two got back into a ready stance, "But it also appears to be weakened." "Think we could finish it off if we kept at it?" BaoHuckmon asked with exasperate breaths. "..No…" FrostKyuubimon replied as she watched Devidramon weakly get up and used its wings to lift itself into the air, the demonic dragon flying away, "Its retreating..for now." "Yeah...but is that a good thing or a bad thing?" BaoHuckmon asked worried as he dropped to all four, no longer battle ready. "Ah...man that thing has a wicked bite…" he breathed out as he and Frostkyuubimon reverted back to Huckmon and YukiRenamon respectively. "Indeed. And it's claws cut deep too." YukiRenamon grunted as she grabbed her shoulder that had a minor cut to it. "Ah...well I'm glad it's gone now." Huckmon panted as he shook his head before standing back up before Rainbow Dash and the sister Digimon ran up to them as Rainbow got down next to Huckmon and began to check on him. "You alright?" she asked as Noir and Blanc tended to the snow vixen. "Hah...I'll live…how's Rarity doing?" "...Uh….well…." --- "Can't sleep….nightmare will eat me...can't sleep...nightmare will eat me…" Princemamemon repeated as he was in a fetal position, his entire body a pale white. "Heh...is it wrong I don't feel sorry for this douche?" Huckmon asked as Rainbow Dash was carrying him with permission this time. "Nope...I feel the same as you, buddy," the tomboy answered. "So where is Rarity?" Noir asked as they finally turned away from the comatose Prince. "Oh~" Rarity's voice groaned as she walked in from the shadow's, holding her throbbing head as she was back in her regular clothing, "What happened?" "Rares…" Rainbow Dash said seriously as she leaned in to glare at her. "You have got a lot of explaining to do." she threatened. "..What do you mean?" "What do I mean?!" she shouted. She then pointed the the pale white Princemamemon, "Oh I don't know! Maybe it has something to do with the fact you turned into that….that dark version of you and scared this jerk so bad he will probably be scared of his own shadow." she stated in one quick breath. "So hmm...I don't know you tell me what I mean!" "..I...I did that?" Rarity asked with wide eyes. "Yeah y...wait...you..don't remember?" Rainbow Dash gawked as she accidentally dropped Huckmon. "Ow…" he cried. "Memory loss too...oh come on!" RD cried holding her head. "Not so loud…" Rarity winced as she held her head, "My head feels like it went through an entire session of Pinkie pie's endl…" she whined. "Your head hurts?!" Rainbow Dash countered. "I get the feeling this might go on for a while." YukiRenamon stated as Blanc bandaged her shoulder while Noir picked up Huckmon. "..Wait…" Noir spoke up as she spotted something on PrinceMamemon's cape, "There's a note on the cape." She then bent down and pulled the note out as she and Huckmon read it. "..These are directions to Alpha city," Noir gasped a bit, 'Did Rarity's..other self scare the info out of that 'prince'?' "Cool, ladies we're off the Alpha city!" Huckmon shouted, raising on of his claws up before wincing, "..after we rest up." "Sounds like as good a place as any," YukiRenamon replied as she rolled her shoulder to numb the pain slightly as she and Blanc walked up to the others. "Wait...Does this mean I can finally...well.." RD paused as she motioned to her dress. "Yes. You can change back into your normal clothing." Noir replied, Rainbow grinned happily at that. "Yes!" she shouted as she threw the dress off forcing Noir to cover Huckmon's eyes, "Finally!" "R...Rainbow dash! Put some clothes on this instant!" Rarity exclaimed, blushing up a storm. "What I'm wearing those panty things…" Rainbow countered, the tomboy(much like she said) wearing a pair of cyan panties and a cyan sports bra. "Regardless, you...you..just put your regular clothes back on this instant!" "Stop nagging me will ya! I'll do it just give me a second to enjoy the fact I don't have to wear that dress anymore!" she argued as Blanc handed her the tank top she normally had on before giving her her pants, "thanks." "No problem." "Ugh…" Rarity groaned a bit while thinking, 'hopefully Twilight and the others are doing ok.' she hoped in her mind. --- "Hpmh..so it seems two of Sparkle's friends dealt with that pathetic excuse of a prince," the cloaked figure within Jupitermon's main chamber huffed, seeing the events that transpired in Royal town,"No matter. What awaits Sparkle in the next town..will be quite haunting."
