Chapter 15: Trip Down Memory Lane (part 5) WarGreymon War

After entering BlackWarGreymon’s next memory, Princess Twilight, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna found themselves in what looked like a street. Thick snow covered everything they saw, all from the distant woodland to the nearby house.

As the three looked around their surroundings, they noticed that the sky looked somewhat different to the Digital World and quite similar to their own world.

“Ok, don’t get me wrong, but I think we’re in the human world,” Twilight said to the Royal Sisters. After mental comparison, the older Alicorns agreed with her.

“Indeed. This area seems different to what we have seen so far,” Luna said.

Celestia meanwhile was staring at the snow covered trees.

“Wow, even the snow is just like the snow in Equestria,” She said to herself.

But quite suddenly, all of them were interrupted by a familiar voice.

“They’re nearby, I can sense it. Perhaps now I will finally find the answers I seek.”

Luna was first to turn her head to see BlackWarGreymon walking through the woods and towards the house. Despite his imposing statement, the blue Alicorn couldn’t help but feel relieved at BlackWarGreymon’s condition. The brouzes on his skin were healed, the scratches were gone, the dents were nowhere to be found on his armour and his Brave Shield was restored. It was almost as if he was completely new again.

Soon Twilight and Celestia also spotted him and after joining Luna, they followed him. Although their minds were questioned as to why the Digimon was in the human world, the three mares remained silent. The only noise they heard was the crumpling sound of the snow as BlackWarGreymon took every step, leaving huge three-toed tracks behind him.

Then he stopped walking and stared at the house, leaving the princesses in a state of confusion. But their confusion only perked up when the Mega level Digimon summoned his Terra Destroyer orb and threw it at the house. Destroying the side of it.

“Why is he destroying a house!?” Twilight asked, but got no answer.

Then just as BlackWarGreymon threw another red orb at the house, the mares noticed Arukenimon and Mummymon leaping out of the smoke. The two Digimon only had enough time to see the oncoming orb smashing its way through trees and towards them. They ducked just in time as the red sphere struck the house the second time, sending more dust, smoke and debris into the air.

As the smoke cleared, the two Ultimate level Digimon got the chance to see who was responsible for the attacks. But only to wish they hadn’t.

“It’s BlackWarGreymon!” Arukenimon exclaimed in alarm and disbelief.

“Oh no!” Mummymon said, but was joined by BlackWarGreymon.

“Oh yes.”

Luna was the only one who quietly chuckled at BlackWarGreymon’s choice of words at the right time.

“So, we meet again,” BlackWarGreymon called out to the two disguised Digimon.

“And this time, we’re ready for you,” Mummymon declared before he and Arukenimon transformed into their real forms. It seemed they were going to fight him for a change.

“Ready to be defeated again, you mean!” The black Digimon said as he got his claws in battle position, making his creators back off in fear.

Then to the princesses’ surprise, a new voice spoke out.

“So this is the informus BlackWarGreymon?”

Appearing through the smoke, stood a tall man wearing a long purple trench coat. His voice was deep, his hair was long and black, his face was very pale and his eyes were almost completely featureless.

The three Alicorns couldn’t find out why, but just looking at the man creeped them out.

‘Who is he. BlackWarGreymon never mentioned him to me,’ Twilight thought to herself before hearing the strange man again.

“Just what do you hope to accomplish here?” He asked. Then the armoured Digimon gave his answer.

“I wish to look upon the face of my creator.”

Hearing what he said confused the on-looking Alicorns.

“But isn’t Arukenimon his creator?” Twilight asked, but again got no answer. The Royal Sisters were also confused by the mystery.

“You come all this way to see what you already seen then. I gave you life from just the tiny hairs on my head,” Arukenimon spoke up, seemly telling the truth. But BlackWarGreymon thought otherwise.

“Perhaps, but who gave you life? And who is your creator Mummymon?”

The question left both the Alicorns and the two Digimon greatly confused. But the man spoke out.

“It was me.”

Both Arukenimon and Mummymon were surprised to hear the answer. Twilight was equally surprised.

‘What! But how!? He’s just a human. Or is he really a Digimon?’

Twilight’s thoughts were interrupted when the tall man spoke again. Explaining himself as he approached the three Digimon.

“I made both of these Digimon by turning my DNA into data. So you see BlackWarGreymon, I’m the creator you’ve been searching for.”

“Then I am a product of the real world, not the digital one. Interesting,” BlackWarGreymon stated.

“Yes, I think you’ve gotten what you came for, haven’t you. So now leave us!” The man ordered, making the princesses think of him being very rude. But BlackWarGreymon wasn’t listening.

“It’s all beginning to make sense to me now. I’ve been searching for answers in the Digital World, trying to find the meaning to my existence. But have been able to find nothing to ease my pain. And now I know why.”

The princesses paid close attention to what he was about to say.

“I was created from you. Just like Arukenimon and Mummymon were. We’re part of the real world, foreign to the Digital World. We do not belong there.”

The mares’ eyes, as well as Arukenimon’s and Mummymon’s, were widened as hearing every word BlackWarGreymon said. But the man grew tired of it all.

“If you’re done philosophizing, then goodbye.”

As the man turned to face away from BlackWarGreymon, the black Digimon raised his right arm, pointing his claws outward to his right.

“I’ll leave. As soon as I’m done here.”

The words caught the man’s attention as he looked back at the Digimon, hearing him out. But didn’t expect the kind of answer he received.

“Foreign objects must be eliminated.”

The Alicorns felt another wave of fear from hearing BlackWarGreymon’s powerful words, noting that he was being serious.

The man however, thought it was some kind of joke.

“What are you talking about? I’m not a foreign object.”

“But you are. You belong in neither the Digital World or the real world. You upset the balance of both!” BlackWarGreymon said with a visible gleam in his right eye. A sigh that he was actually dead serious.

“Upset the balance?” Celestia asked, unsure of what BlackWarGreymon’s intentions.

Twilight and Luna were unsure if he was about to do an act of good or just plain crazy. Mummymon however was starting to worry and pointed his gun at the black Digimon.

“This guy’s talking crazy! Do you want me to…uh…take care of him for you, boss?”

However, the Digimon got no answer.

“Boss?”

The man could be seen twitching while showing an angered glare.

“A foreign object!? I give you life and this is how you repay me!?” The man shouted, seeming that he lost his calm demeanor.

“What’s going on?” Arukenimon asked, unsure what was happening.

Even though it was all a memory, the three princesses couldn’t help but take a small step back from what might be a fast approaching battle.

It didn’t took long, because BlackWarGreymon started to charge at them with his right arm extended. Intending on impaling the trio of evil.

But to the mares’ surprise, the three-way melee was immediately halted by a familiar child-like voice.

“Wait! Wait! WAIT!!”

All eyes looked to one direction and spotted non-other than Agumon, along with his human ally.

‘It’s Agumon!’Twilight thought to herself. Quite surprised for him to turn up at the right time.

“YOU! I remember you,” BlackWarGreymon said to the small yellow Digimon.

“Let’s talk about this!” Agumon suggested, hoping that the Mega Digimon was in the mood to listen.

“There’s nothing to talk about!” BlackWarGreymon said before resuming his attack.

But then immediately, catching the Alicorns by surprise, Agumon started to glow a bright golden colour, before uttering out his famous words.

“Agumon warp-digivolve to…”

What the Alicorns were seeing was yet another truly amazing sight. A Rookie transforming straight into a Mega.

The golden light completely engulfed Agumon. And as it faded, it revealed someone although similar, but entirely different. He looked exactly like BlackWarGreymon, but the massive difference was his colour scheme. Instead of black, his skin was orange. Instead of yellow hair and yellow cords, his was red. Rather than having yellow eyes, his was green. The armour on his chest as well as his three-horned helmet were a shiny chrome silver. But the biggest difference about him that really got the princesses attention, was his Chrome Digizoid armour. It was as gold as the sun. Although his Brave Shield looked identical in shape as BlackWarGreymon’s, it had a symbol covering it. The Crest of Courage. Celestia in particular found the symbol fascinating, since it somewhat looked like a sun. The other difference about him was his voice, which was deeper than his artificial counterpart. Which was evident as he finished his sentence.

“…WARGREYMON!!!”

Sparks flew when WarGreymon’s claws clashed with BlackWarGreymon’s, blocking his attack.

As the two Mega Digimon wrestled for strength, the Alicorns were stuck in a state of shock and awe. They never thought they would get to see the golden warrior in the flesh. But there he was, in the way of his dark counterpart, letting the man and his two Digimon followers escape.

“It’s going to be a good fight. Maybe we should stay,” Mummymon suggested.

No kidding, considering that the upcoming battle was said to be one of the most memorable Digimon fights in history.

The three princesses were soon snapped out of their trance when BlackWarGreymon shoved WarGreymon aside.

“Why do you protect him!?” He asked, clearly aggravated by the interfering.

“Because without Oikawa, we’ll never get the Dark Spores out of those kids. Don’t you understand, they’ll stay in there forever if we destroy him,” The human boy said, making the on-looking ponies realise that more evil was going around at the time.

“Then you should have stopped him. NOT ATTACKED ME!!” The angry BlackWarGreymon said before charging at the boy. But WarGreymon was quick to defend him.

“Don’t even think about hurting Tai!”

The mares had clear front row seats for a legendary skirmish between the two WarGreymons. After a quick duel on the ground, the two took their battle to the skies. Forcing the Alicorns to fly after them.

After giving each other quick jabs with their claws and knees, BlackWarGreymon broke the stalemate by giving his golden counterpart a hard three-clawed blow to the face. The action caused WarGreymon to back off.

“STOP! Don’t you remember what we talked about? We should be working together,” WarGreymon said, hoping to talk reason to BlackWarGreymon.

But the dark Digimon responded with an attack.

“Never! TERRA DESTROYER!”

He then fired a stallion sized red sphere at WarGreymon. But the good Digimon brought forth his Brave Shield and deflected the energy ball away. The action left the small sphere hurtling into a large lake, the amount of energy in the explosion under water caused a very large splash that went high in the air.

The Alicorns were still amazed at the amount of power inside the small attack. Truly a sight to behold.

They then spotted WarGreymon flying higher in the sky, with BlackWarGreymon in hot pursuit. Sadness was evident on the princesses faces. They really wanted to see a time in the black Digimon’s past where he was a friend, not a foe.

After another quick duel in the Earth skies, BlackWarGreymon was forced down on the snowy ground, with WarGreymon pinning him down. The golden warrior still wanted to talk his artificial counterpart out of the fight.

“I don’t understand you. Why do you have to fight when we could be friends!?”

“Friendship is weakness! Fighting. Struggle. That is my life.”

The princesses felt a sharp pain in their hearts at what BlackWarGreymon said. Back then, he truly despised friendship. Believing it to be nothing but an obstacle in his way. The mares were glad that the BlackWarGreymon they knew was more understanding, but they wanted to find out when in his past he accepted friendship. And how it was done.

WarGreymon was a good example of a friend. And like a good friend, he kept on trying to reason with the artificial Digimon. He never gave up on him.

“But it doesn’t have to be that way!”

BlackWarGreymon however was getting tired of all the talking.

“Enough!”

Using his left leg, the black Digimon forced WarGreymon out of his hold, sending him tumbling down the snow covered hill. After stopping himself, WarGreymon looked up to see BlackWarGreymon standing on top of the hill, looking down at him.

“There is no need for two WarGreymons in this world! Either you go… or I go.”

The statement left the Alicorns in a state of worry. It wasn’t just an ordinary battle, to BlackWarGreymon… it was a fight to the death! To see who was the strongest. so far, it was a stalemate between the two. All even in power, strength and speed. It was evident when the fight resumed. One moment when BlackWarGreymon was being chased by WarGreymon, the golden adversary flew above his dark rival and slammed his foot onto his back. The sneak attack sent the artificial Digimon falling to the ground.

During most of the fight, Twilight, Celestia and Luna were left speechless. Unable to say anything. They had no idea who was winning. Despite the spectacle, they still felt hurt after hearing BlackWarGreymon’s words. It kept stinging both their minds and their hearts.

The only subject that was on their minds, was when and how did he change. How was it that a being so dark and cruel, became such a good friend to them? They wanted to know. They needed to know.

They were so caught up in their minds that they missed WarGreymon kicking BlackWarGreymon’s Terra Destroyer orb away as though it was a football.

Celestia’s and Luna’s thought patterns were interrupted when they heard Twilight.

“They’re heading towards a city!”

The Royal Sisters looked out to see that the young Alicorn was right. The two Megas were bringing their fight to a populated area. Giving how powerful the two were, it could mean bad news for the unsuspecting people.

“I Know this is just a memory, but I hope nothing bad happens to the innocent,” Celestia said while she, Luna and Twilight flew after them.

By the time the three Alicorns caught up with the two warring Digimon, BlackWarGreymon sent WarGreymon crashing into a wall of a tall building. With the golden fighter immobile, he was wide open to attack.

“You shall face your doom!” BlackWarGreymon said as he charged up another red sphere, intending to put an end to their fight.

“He’s going to destroy him!” Twilight shouted.

But just as things look bleak, a giant dragon-like Digimon appeared out of nowhere and grabbed BlackWarGreymon with his massive hands.

The princesses couldn’t believe what they were seeing. The new Digimon was a colossus! Probably one of the biggest they had ever seen. Like BlackWarGreymon, his armour was black, but with red, silver and gold colours on his chest, knees and toes. On his right arm was a cannon. His skin was blue, as well as his tail. On his forehead was a golden crown-like crest. And on his back were a pair of massive red dragon-like wings.

His name was Imperialdramon, and he was in Fighter Mode.

His interference caused BlackWarGreymon to cease his attack as Imperialdramon carried him higher and higher, away from the city. They were then followed by WarGreymon.

“UNHAND ME!!! OR FEEL MY WRATH!!!” BlackWarGreymon shouted in protest.

After Imperialdramon reached above the clouds, he let go of BlackWarGreymon. Soon after the black Digimon gained some distance away from the giant, WarGreymon joined the two.

When the three Alicorns caught up with them, they were startled by the fact that they were right in the middle of the three Mega level Digimon. They arrived just in time to hear the golden warrior speaking to the dark one.

“THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE!!!”

Twilight spoke up with panic in her voice.

“He has a point! Just look at that giant! He clearly is a Mega! BlackWarGreymon’s fight with WarGreymon was equal enough! But with that giant by WarGreymon’s side, BlackWarGreymon doesn’t stand a chance!”

She was joined by Celestia.

“I believe so, Twilight. If BlackWarGreymon was wise, he should know he’s outmatched.”

Luna however, thought otherwise.

“That may be true sister, he is outmatched. But he’s no coward. He’s the type who would keep on fighting, no matter the odds.”

Celestia and Twilight were both startled to hear Luna’s words. But soon discovered that she was right.

As on cue, BlackWarGreymon placed his gauntlets together and formed a small red orb in-between them. Seconds later, WarGreymon did the same, but his orb was yellow in colour. At the same time, Imperialdramon raised his right arm at the dark Digimon. Then blue energy began to gather in his wrist cannon.

The Alicorns faces all went pale with dread. Three Mega level Digimon were charging up their most powerful attacks, and the three mares were right in their line of fire!

Using her magic, Luna teleported herself, Celestia and Twilight away. But not before hearing the names of the Digimon’s signature attacks.

“TERRA DESTROYER!!!”

“TERRA FORCE!!!”

“POSITRON LAZER!!!”
………………………………………………………………………………………......

The three princesses reappeared on a shoreline several miles away from the fight, with Luna slightly dazed from using her spell to cover quite a distance, while maintaining the memory.

“Wow, good thinking sister,” Celestia said.

“Yeah, that was a tight spot we were in,” Twilight added.

“Thanks, but what about…”

Luna’s question was cut short when she and the other two Alicorns heard a massive explosion in the distance. They then saw the colossal blast itself as it dominated the skies and lit up the entire area as if it was a miniature sun.

The Royal Sisters had never seen an explosion of power of such magnitude in their entire lives. Just the size of the blast was almost the size of a mountain. Twilight was just as amazed, the explosion made her explosion of magic with Tirek in their first fight look like a firecracker.

It seemed every time the three mares entered BlackWarGreymon’s memories, they continued to underestimate the power of the Digimon.

As the explosion faded away, the princesses all gasped when they saw four objects falling towards the land they were on. With smoke trailing from them. As they fell closer, the mares all knew it was the Digimon. Three were Rookies and one was a Mega, all were knocked out from the blast.

The Alicorns could only watch as the four Digimon crashed to the ground, unable to help.

Then Twilight spoke up, hoping to cheer up the mood.

“Well… at least they’re still alive.”

Her words seemed to had worked. The Royal Sisters grew smiles, glad that the Digimon survived an explosion that could have annihilated everything else.

Then the mares waited patiently for the Digimon to recover consciousness. After what felt like an eternity, one by one, the four Digimon finally woke up. While Agumon, Veemon and a green bug Digimon named Wormmon sat back up, BlackWarGreymon stayed lying on his back. Staring at the sky above.

After clearing his mind, BlackWarGreymon broke the silence.

“I’m surprised you could defeat me. Even two on one. Though I almost wish you had destroyed me completely.”

His sentence alone shocked the Alicorns to a point that they didn’t want to believe what they just heard.

‘He… wanted to be destroyed!? Was…was he really giving up on life? W-was that how much he was hurting?’ Luna thought to herself, felling deep sadness for BlackWarGreymon after his attempted suicide.

“You’re kidding me. Is that what you’re after?” Wormmon asked, gaining BlackWarGreymon’s full attention, as well as the Alicorns.

“What?” The black Digimon asked, letting the small Digimon explain.

“You mean this whole time we’re been chasing you around, watching you blow up everything blow-up-able. You just wanted to find something to destroy you? Don’t you have anything better to do with your free time?”

“Hmm,” The Mega Digimon said, clearly intrigued with the information.

The princesses were unsure where it was going, but listened on.

“I know all about self-pity. When Ken was the Digimon Emperor, he treated me like fish bait. I almost started to believe the awful things he said, but deep inside I had faith that one day the real Ken would come back to me. I just kept on trying to get through to him. I didn’t give up and neither can you.”

The first part of his story made the Alicorns felt sorry for Wormmon. But the latter part made their eyes sparkle with hope.

“Wait! Could THIS be the time when BlackWarGreymon started to change? To become good?” Twilight asked herself. Celestia and Luna overheard her and smiled, hoping that it was so.

Then BlackWarGreymon turned his head to Agumon, for he spoke next.

“Even if your life is all fighting and struggle, it can still have meaning. I had to fight all my life, but I believed in what I was fighting for. I think it’s that belief, not the fighting, that has given my life meaning. Can you imagine the trouble Tai would get into without me? If all you got in your life is lemons, make lemon pie.”

He then got off topic.

“Hay, I’m hungry!”

After realising where BlackWarGreymon got the whole ‘lemon pie’ thing from, Twilight’s face was continuing to smile bright. She kept believing that the memory was the turning point in the black Digimon’s life.

After BlackWarGreymon looked back at the sky to take in the new information given to him, it was Veemon’s turn to talk.

“And your life doesn’t… you know, have to be filled with a whole bunch of incredibly amazing events to be special. Believe me, some of the best times I’ve had, are just eating, and sleeping, and hanging out with my friends! And the thing is, we could all be your friends if you just gave us the chance to be!”

Then Wormmon joined in again.

“He’s right! Look at Ken, he never thought he could have friends and now he has lots of them. You just need to lighten up a little. Give us a chance.”

It was at that specific moment the Princess of Friendship couldn’t contain her excitement any longer.

“Yes. Yes! YES!!! This must be the moment that everything changed for him!”

The Royal Sisters let out a small chuckle at the lavender Alicorn’s actions. But they too were secretly excited. The three then paid attention to the Digimon’s conversation, just in time to see BlackWarGreymon rising back on his feet.

“I don’t know.”

His choice of words got the other Digimon concerned.

“Please don’t go!” Veemon called out.

“Don’t you want some pie?” Agumon asked, still thinking about food.

“This is all so foreign to me. I must think on it,” BlackWarGreymon said. The princesses noticing that his voice was softer than before.

“Are you sure?” Wormmon asked, hoping that they should be friends right away.

BlackWarGreymon then glanced over his shoulder to look at the three small Digimon.

“I thank you for your advice.”

“You’re welcome,” Veemon responded.

Then BlackWarGreymon said something that made the princesses’ eyes widen and their smiles brighter.

“Perhaps it is time to put aside my warrior ways, they have provided me few answers. And maybe one day, we could even be… friends.”

He then took to the skies to find a place to be alone to think it over. Then the Alicorns overheard Agumon talking to himself.

“I hope so, BlackWarGreymon. I hope so.”

It was at that point where the memory ended. The Alicorns found themselves back in BlackWarGreymon’s mind. After facing the Digimon himself, the princesses were silent while smiling at him. They wanted to hear him say it.

“Alright. I’ve should have stopped to listen to them back in the Digital World to begin with,” BlackWarGreymon said, finally admitting it.

“It probably would have saved you all the trouble,” Celestia said. Her smile had never left her face.

“I guess.”

After another brief moment of silence, Twilight Sparkle spoke up.

“BlackWarGreymon, who was that tall man?”

The Digimon understood the nature of the question. For he was responsible for Arukenimon’s and Mummymon’s creation. And in turn, was responsible for HIS creation.

“He’s a human named Oikawa. And he was the one responsible for the conflict in the Digital World at the time.”

The Alicorns gasped at hearing what he said.

“He started it all? But why?” Twilight asked him.

“Well at first, I thought he just wanted to upset the balance of the Digital World. But later on, I found out that it was more than that.”

“What was it?” Luna asked.

“That he wasn’t the one pulling the strings. He was in fact being controlled by an evil Digimon. He just didn’t know it himself.”

“An evil Digimon?” Twilight asked in disbelief. “Do you know who it was?”

BlackWarGreymon thought for a short while. Strangely, he knew who it was without even meeting him in person. He then pieced together all he knew, into an answer.

“Yes. His name was MaloMyotismon. And he took over Oikawa’s mind, created Arukenimon and Mummymon, created the Control Spires, tricked a boy into becoming the Digimon Emperor and upset the balance of both worlds, just to return to the Digital World.”

The princesses were shocked by the complexity of the evil Digimon’s plan. It was enough to put someone like King Sombra to shame and would make Discord’s head spin. MaloMyotismon must have been a genius.

“He did all that… just to go back to the Digital World?” Celestia asked while slightly baffled at the plan.

“Yes. But not while I had anything to say about it.”

“You stopped him? How did you do it?” Luna asked, clearly impressed.

“Well I…”

BlackWarGreymon immediately stopped mid-sentence before he could say anymore. After remembering what really happened on that day, he felt a sudden but small pain in his chest. He then placed his right arm on his chest plate while trying to think of something else to say. But found it difficult to do so.

“I…I…”

The mares noticed his sudden lack of response and grew increasingly concerned. Then Twilight recognized the way BlackWarGreymon put his hand on his chest. It was the exact same reaction when he was asked how he came to Equestria in the first place.

Although confused, the purple Alicorn didn’t like seeing BlackWarGreymon acting so off. So she thought of something that could ease his pain. But it might also reinforce it.

“You don’t have to tell us. Because we’re about to see it for ourselves in your memory.”

BlackWarGreymon flinched at first, knowing that the one memory he hoped to avoid was about to be witnessed. The very memory that he thought would break the princesses! He knew the day would come for them to see the truth, but he had hoped that it would be much later. And as much as he wanted to deny it, he couldn’t stop his friends from entering his final memory. The three had come so far and it was too late for them to turn back.

“F-Fine. If you want to see it for yourselves……then so be it,” He said, his voice had a hint of sadness.

What was unsettling to the Alicorns, was that they detected the sadness in his voice. Meaning that something big had happened on that day.

“I know you all have questions you want to ask me,” BlackWarGreymon said before pointing to the next orb of light. “And that memory will answer them for you.”

As well as his voice, the princesses noticed that even the Digimon’s eyes seemed saddened.

“BlackWarGreymon… what’s wrong?” Luna asked in concern, but the Digimon didn’t answered back.

Twilight then remembered something. As well as BlackWarGreymon’s same reaction with his hand on his chest, she remembered that Fluttershy figured out that something bad happened to him.

‘BlackWarGreymon, what is it that you’re not telling us?’

“Well if you want to go? Then go. I’m not stopping you,” BlackWarGreymon said as he looked away from the Alicorns. The three suddenly felt more sympathy for him.

And for him to be acting so out of the ordinary, the princesses even felt regret.

“BlackWarGreymon. If… if it’s something you don’t want us to see…”

Celestia was interrupted by BlackWarGreymon himself.

“No. You might as well see for yourselves now. You may never get another chance to do so.”

As the three received his permission, they decided to go for it.

“Don’t worry. I’m sure everything will turn out alright in the end,” Twilight said hoping to cheer the Digimon up.

As the princesses approached the orb of light that lead to the memories, the three were puzzled as to why it was to why it was the final one.

“Why is there only one left?” Celestia asked.

“Maybe BlackWarGreymon’s hiding the others,” Luna said before looking back at the Digimon. But the hint of sadness in his eyes and his behaviour made her think that there may be another reason. “Or maybe there’s something more to it.”

Luna then thought to herself.

‘If he wasn’t acting like this when we found out he was once evil, then we might be expecting something…worse.’

As she continued to look at BlackWarGreymon, she saw him turned his back to them with his head hung low. Not from sorrow and regret, but from pain and sadness.
