Darkness and Light: Requiem cont...

"Give up and come back to me," demanded Hikari as she glared daggers at her evil half. The dark Hikari smirked.
"So the two angels are here. Big deal. If you remember clearly, I easily blew off Omegamon with ease. What makes you think those two can stand a chance?" she replied. Takeru furrowed his eyebrows.
"We'll find a way to defeat you. I promise," retorted the good Hikari. Her dark half smirked and shrugged her shoulders.
"Oh come on! I'm stronger than last time. Even know at her adult level, BlackTailmon can easily knock over your little hussy of an angel right now," she uttered sarcastically.
"Who are you calling a hussy?" hissed Angewomon. BlackTailmon raised her claws to her angelic counterpart as her partner raised her index finger.
"Enough, BlackTailmon, finish off those pathetic angels," he demanded as BlackTailmon charged forth. Angewomon flew up and HolyAngemon used his staff as a shield to reflect BlackTailmons attack.
"Not bad, HolyAngemon. Figures you'd be able to harm me since you are one of the most powerful of all perfection types," complimented BlackTailmon as she charged towards him again. HolyAngemon used his excalibur to once again deflect her claws.
"Enough of this, go back to Angewomon and merge with her," he pleaded. BlackTailmon breathed loudly as she extended her claws once again.
"I do only as Hikari commands me," she shouted. Hikari's dark half used her crest to power BlackTailmon's tailring for an even powerful attack. BlackTailmon jumped towards HolyAngemon again, this time evading his sword, making it spring out of his hands. She slashed HolyAngemon in his chest, making him fall to the ground, as she scurried past his falling body towards Angewomon.
"Angewomon!" screeched Hikari as BlackTailmon instantly appeared in front of Angewomon and slashed her in the helmet with her paw, making her fly towards in the direction where HolyAngemon fell.
"How can that be? BlackTailmon is lower leveled compared to Angewomon," mumbled Takeru.
"I told you dopes already. The crest of darkness is more powerful than it was before. She can fight her light half, even at her perfection form," stressed the dark side of Hikari.
"I thought that if one gets hurt, then so the other," thought Takeru out loud.
"There is a fine line between blood and binary. Hikari and I are flesh, Tailmon and BlackTailmon are made from a bunch of ones and zeros. Figure it out. Why else would I have sent BlackTailmon to fight if that were the case?!" hissed the dark half of Hikari. The other chosens gulped.
"How do we stop them? It sounds pointless right now we can't seem to use our crest," gasped Sora as she burried her feared face into a nearby tree. Takeru and Hikari glanced back at her.
"It's not that hard. You've been able to use your crest before! Do it again!" shouted Takeru. Taichi winced his face.
"You make it seem all that easy! You heard what dark Hikari said earlier! We can't use them! She even took out all of our digimon, including Omegamon!" he screamed back. Ryo stepped forth between them.
"We can. I'm sure there is a way to stop them. Hikari-san and Takeru-san were able to use the powers of the crest that laid dormant within them. We just got to figure out how to use ours," stated Ryo. BlackTailmon used her tailring and the crest of darkness to power up her attack again.
"Neko Punch!" she shrieked as she punched Angewomon in the stomach. Hikari's eyes widened in horror as she watched Angewomon being attacked. Takeru couldn't take much more as clenched his fist.
"HolyAngemon! Please help Angewomon!" screamed Takeru. HolyAngemon flew in the air folded his wings over his body. He then extended his excalibur and summoned up energy.
"Heaven's Gate in attack form!" he shouted out as his sword exploded in light. The light surrounded BlackTailmon, making her fall to the ground. Angewomon gasped in astonishment. Hikari ran over to Angewomon as she stared down at the black cat. The dark Hikari smirked and put a hand to her hip.
"It's about time he stepped up. However, I'm afraid that he won't get in the way this time," said the gothic Hikari assuringly. Takeru gritted his teeth and glared at her.
"Don't tell me you plan to make her fight more! She's down. After an attack like that, there is no way she'll be able to fight us anymore. Give up, you've lost," demanded Takeru. Dark Hikari glanced at him and gave him a serious look.
"I won't. Just because BlackTailmon went down like that, it took two perfections to weaken one adult? How pathetic. If you don't remember, BlackTailmon has more capabilities now that I pocess the dark crest. Isn't that right BlackTailmon?" she asked mischiviously. BlackTailmon slowly raised herself off of the ground. All of the chosens, and the two angels, gasped at the sight before them. BlackTailmon now had glowing red eyes.
"W-What is...this?" panted Hikari in fear. Dark Hikari raised her crest in the air and smiled.
"Now BlackTailmon! Become the form you've been lingering!" demanded Dark Hikari. Hikari grimaced.
"You know that Takeru-kun has defeated LadyDevimon before! He can do it again!" she shouted in anger. Dark Hikari grinned.
"Who said she's going to become LadyDevimon?" she said slyly. Suddenly, dark red light emitted from the crest and fell over BlackTailmon.
"BlackTailmon...warp shinka..."
Everyone shielded their eyes from this evil light that filled the area. BlackTailmon's body started to change shape to a much more feminine shape.
"LILITHMON!"

"This is the Dark ultimate form of Tailmon! Driven by the darkness of her heart, confusion, and hatred of light. The angel of darkness, the lustfull, yet powerful Lilithmon!" cheered Dark Hikari. All of the children trembled at the sight of this digimon. "I can't believe it!" yelled Hikari is horror. Lilithmon opened her eyes and spread apart her black wings.
"Lilithmon, destroy the chosens and their digimon. Then go back and destroy the rest of the fallen digimon. I'll be doing my own business as you do," commanded Dark Hikari. Angewomon, HolyAngemon, and Digmon stood gaurd. Takeru and Hikari stood next to each other. Takeru frowned and looked at Hikari, meeting directly with her eyes.
"We had so much trouble taking BlackTailmon down. We may not be able to stop Lilithmon, but we mustn't lose all hope. Your dark half alone was able to use her crest to take down Omegamon, but our crest together should have enough power to help our digimon bring a force stronger than Omegamon," suggested Takeru, hiding the fear he now held. "Takeru-kun, does that mean HolyAngmon and Angwomon become perfection levels?" asked Hikari. Takeru looked back at Lilithmon and nodded his head.
"Yes, at least enough so we can stop your dark half from opening the portal to our world," he explained. Hikari glanced back at the other chosens who stood helplessly and frowned.
"Okay then," she agreed. The two chosens stepped foward towards their digimon and furrowed their eyebrows.
"Angewomon, HolyAngemon, we need you to fight her!" demanded Takeru. Everyone gasped, including the angels. Angewomon whipped her head to face the two.
"Are you serious?! She may be too powerful!" shrieked the female angel. Dark Hikari smirked and put a hand over her crest.
"Listen to your little angel there. She's on to something. Well, I got to go take over the world. Have a nice death chosens," she said as another dark orb swollowed her up and transported itself into the castle.
"Trust us Angewomon! We need your help right now! The other digimon are down and you, HolyAngemon, and Digmon are all we have left right now!" she pleaded. Takeru gave HolyAngemon the same eyes that Hikari was giving Angewomon. Lilithmon stood silent for a moment before deciding to speak.
"Don't bother. Not even the combined strength of two perfections can take me down," warned Lilithmon. Hikari gave the most desperate pleading face to Angewomon, making her tremble.
"Alright, we'll do it," she agreed as she and HolyAngemon turned to face Lilithmon. The other chosen's mouths dropped. Takeru and Hikari raised their digivices.
"HolyAngemon chou shinka...Seraphimon!"
"Angewomon chou shinka...HolyDramon!"
Lilithmon once again stood silent and expressionless as she watched the two angelic digimon transform. The other chosens, minus Daisuke, Iori, Miyako, and Wallace since they've seen the two digimon, all were amazed at the sight.
"This is incredible! I've never seen their ultimate forms before," said Koushiro. "They're so beautiful. Maybe we do stand a chance against Lilithmon after all!" cheered Mimi as her hopes rose. The others gazed in amazement while Lilithmon grimmaced.
"We'll see just how powerful they are when against their own kind," she said as she raised her right hand. "Nazar Claw!" she shouted as she charged and tried to slash the two. The two ultimates dodged and spun around.
"Seven Heavens!" shouted Seraphimon as he attacked Lilithmon, sending her flying into the castle wall. HolyDramon flew foward and summoned the next attack.
"Holy Flame!" she yelled as she charged towards Lilithmon in a spiral fashion. Lilithmon let out a screech of pain. The two ultimates backed away as Digmon made his way through.
"Gold Rush!" he yelled as he let out his drills to puncture her in the stomach. The two digimon stood in a line formation, examining if she was able to continue fighting. Her head hung low, as her purple sleeves waved to the wind.
"Is she knocked out?" asked Miyako. There was a small silence after her questioned, until they heard Lilithmon let out a small laugh.
"Hahaha...you fools...did you honestly think that a few weak attacks like that could harm me?" she mumbled as she lifted her head to show a smile, making the others gasp. "She doesn't even look harmed!" screeched Hikari. Lilithmon lifted herself off of the wall and stood straight.
"Did you honestly think that you stood a chance? The powers of the crest make me one of the most powerful digimon of all. Maybe even the strongest!" she boasted. Takeru started to tremble.
What do we do now?
"Let's end this right now," demanded Lilithmon as she raised her arm once again and directed her aim towards her light counterpart, HolyDramon. "PHANTOM PAIN!"

To Be Continued...

Author's Note: Yay! I've finally been able to update a new chapter of this! (does a happy dance) I've been too busy with school stuff to write this. Sad to say, I probably won't be able to update the next chapter in a while, but I'll try.

Anyways, leave me a review please!
