The demon’s roar was so loud that it blew away the rain around it.

The roar could be heard from Kaede’s village, even with the storm still bellowing.

“What’s happening out there?” asked Tai.

“Whatever it is, it can’t be good!” said Matt.

Kari felt a shiver run through her back.

Miroku could feel it as well, “The demon’s aura, it is stronger than ever now!”

All the others felt extremely worried about the fighting team out there, especially after that big lightning bolt struck.

“Do you think they’re all right?” asked Sora.

“Ouch!” cried Mimi “Something’s biting me!” and she swatted her cheek.

“Argh!” groaned a tiny voice.

It was Myoga, and he fell flat on the ground, which made Mimi yelp as she hated bugs. “Somebody kill it!”

“No, don’t!” shouted Sango, and she picked Myoga up.

“Thank you, my dear.”

The Digi Destined we’re amazed as they gawked at him.

“A termite that can talk?” said Izzy.

Myoga looked most insulted.

“He’s not a termite, he’s a flea.” said Shippo.

“Yes,” grunted Myoga “A flea that barely managed to ride out the storm and make it here with this life because he has valuable information regarding your friends.”

Everyone quieted down and gave him their complete attention.

“That’s better…”

Myoga then explained…

“While traveling the lands on a flying crow, I happened to see your comrades free the dormant demon. I must admit I was most surprised to see more unusual creatures in this era, but not the least bit surprised that Lord Inuyasha was the lead of this group.

As I observed the battle, I could see things were not going so well, especially after the storm struck.

Then I noticed Kagome lost some sacred jewel shards, and the demon absorbed them.

I knew I had to quickly race here to inform the rest of you about this! Though, I must admit, I am still rather surprised to find new humans here as well.”

Everyone was horrified!

“We have to go out there!” cried Ken “We have to help them somehow?”

“Ken’s right!” agreed Yolei “We can’t just sit around like this.”

“Agreed,” said Sango. She came out from round the bend, all fitted in her armor.

“Wow! Nice outfit.” said Joe.

“Thank you.” replied Sango

Miroku stared sourly and grumbled.

“Maybe our destiny powers can help fight the demon?” suggested Cody.

Tai felt ready to smack himself for forgetting about their destiny powers, “Well, we can try, but we don’t know what affects it’ll have on demons like these.”

“Well, there’s only one way to find out.” said Matt “Who’s ready?”

Everyone stood, looking brave and prepared.

“For TK,” Kari said to herself, and then strangely she thought of Davis and how much she wanted to make it up to him, and right the wrongs she did that lead to all this.

“Wait! What about the storm?” Izzy asked.

“Leave that to me.” said Miroku “I’ve got an idea how to subside this storm.”

With all said Sango and Miroku mounted Kirara and took off high into the sky.

Miroku then pointed his right hand straight up at the sky, “WIND TUNNEL!” and began to absorb all the clouds and moisture into his hand, weakening the storm to the point of total clearing.

The Digi Destined were astonished by Miroku’s wind tunnel.

“I knew he said it was powerful,” said Ken “But this is insane!”

“It’s worse than you think.” said Shippo “But never mind the details.”

As the storm subsided, the rain stopped falling and the winds died down.

The teams in the field didn’t seem to really notice or care as they were gawking in fear at the new super demon, and how much larger and stronger it was!

“Oh, great going, Kagome!” growled Inuyasha.

“Hey, it wasn’t my fault!” protested Kagome.

“Stop it both of you!” snapped Robin, “We need to focus so we can beat this thing!”

Cyborg tried to scan the monster with his wrist-com, but the demon’s readings were off the charts.

“I say we blast him with everything we got!” he then suggested.

“I don’t know if that is a good idea,” said Twilight “But at least we can try!”

Discord grabbed tons of uzis and rocket-launchers out of seemingly nowhere. “Time to rock-and-roll, kids!” he growled.

The others all stood together and powered up their own special skills and dark aura together.

Kagome and Inyasha stood well back, and Sesshomaru actually leapt out of the way too, wanting to see this for himself.

All at once, the ponies and the Titans unleashed their power, straight at the demon! The combined energy waves formed into one colossal force!

But the demon’s eyes twinkled sinisterly, and its body began to glow with magical aura of its own.

“That’s Princess Luna’s aura!” cried Starlight.

The demon had projected a magical wall around itself, shielding itself from the blast.

“No!” cried Kagome “That shard I tainted with the Princesses’ mane must’ve given Equestrian powers too!”

The demon then opened one of its huge mouths and actually began to suck up the energy like a milkshake, and then it opened its second set of jaws, and the inside of its mouth was glowing brightly.

“WATCH OUT!!” screamed Rainbow.

The demon fired the power right back out at everyone, and even though the teams dodged, the force hit the ground with such strength, it made a forceful shock wave that blew everyone back hard and make the ground shake!

The royal couple fell over, and when they looked up again, all the fighters were barely struggling to get back up. The force-wave had hit them really hard.

They were still alive, but that demon began to stomp its way towards them all.

“Here it comes!” cried Fluttershy.

“Everybody, run!” cried Starfire!

Everyone scattered away, except Cyborg, “Ah, shit!” he shouted “My leg mechanism got screwed in the blast!”

He was completely stuck, and couldn’t get up.

“Cyborg!!” cried Robin.

“Help him, quick!” shouted Twilight, but it was too late...!

The demon extended its newly empowered mane, and enveloped Cyborg like a blanket.

“CYBORG!!!” shouted Robin.

Everyone watched in horrors as the demon crunched up its mane like paper, brutally crushing Cyborg’s bones and pieces, all which were left behind, drenched in blood and oils.

Starfire burst into tears, “Cyborg!!”

The ponies were beyond devastated, and Kagome was really upset.

Inuyasha was furious, and clenched his fists quivering and growling, “He didn’t deserve that!” Now he was determined more than ever to get back at the demon!

Sesshomaru, of course, showed now sympathy at all, but even he could tell the demon was now far too strong for himself to take on like this.

The demon roared and looked ready to spew more acid venom.

Knowing the acid would be more dangerous than ever with the demon’s increased powers, Sesshomaru leapt away.

The others could see this too and quickly leapt up high in the air, and those who couldn’t fly were carried by the others.

The demon unleashed its acid, which was glowing brightly with burning energy-- almost like lava, which spread across the field.

The fighters were all safely up in the air and didn’t get hit, but Starlight suddenly noticed down below, “The royal couple!”

“We forgot them!” cried Applejack.

It was too late to even try to go back and save them.

Kimo and Tusyu braced themselves for the end as the burning substance was about to splash them, but the end didn’t happen.

“What’s going on down there?” asked Discord.

Everyone then saw, as the couple did, that they had been shielded by a wall of light and darkness caused by the Digi Destined, who came rushing over the hills just in time and used their powers to save the couple.

“Are you alright?” asked Tai.

Kimo and his wife nodded, but were astounded by these strangers.

“Who are you?” asked Kimo.

“Well, gee… you’re welcome.” grumbled Matt.

Miroku and Sango came soaring in on Kiara and waved to their friends. Shippo was riding by on his toy horse with Myoga atop his head.

“Where is Cyborg?” called Miroku, but he immediately then saw the remains of Cyborg’s corpse in the field-- scathed and melted by the acid.

“Oh, no!” cried Shippo.

“Oh, my!” said Myoga.

There was no time to grieve however! That demon roared and looked ready to cause more destruction than ever.

The Digi Destined then stepped forth.

“What are you guys doing here?” called Inuyasha.

“We’re going to help you!” called Yolei “We’ll combine our powers with yours, and it may be able to stop him!”

Robin suddenly remembered, too, “Raven’s power is infused with Dark Angel power, and the demon is using Princess Luna’s powers-- darkness.”

Starfire realized too, “In all of the stress, we had forgotten, we too can absorb the darkness.”

“Now you remember, huh?” groaned Inuyasha.

The two remaining Titans stood together, hand-in-hand, and blasted Raven’s power at the demon.

But the demon shielded itself with a magical wall matching the power perfectly.

“It’s not working!” cried Ken.

“Well, it looks like it’s up to all of us then.” said Cody.

Sora agreed, “Let’s use our destiny powers, and maybe we can weaken the demon more.”

The Digi Destined all stood in a line, and joined their hands together.

All at once, their bodies were shrouded in the light of destiny, combined with the energy of the Dark Ocean.

“Fire!” shouted Tai, and he and his team unleashed their powers.

The demon, unsurprisingly, conjured up another wall of light to shield itself, and then prepared to absorb the energy being thrown at it again…

…But Robin and Stafire snuck up behind the demon.

“Now, Starfire!” shouted Robin.

“For Cyborg!” hollered Starfire, and together she and Robin used Raven’s power to strike the demon’s mane and began to absorb the darkness from it, and the demon began to lose some energy allowing the Digi Destined’s power to break through and blast it hard in a big explosion.

“They got it!” cried Pinkie Pie.

But Kagome could still sense the jewel shards, and the demon burst right out of the smoke, weaker, but nowhere near defeat!

“It wasn’t enough!” cried Shippo.

Inuyasha growled, “We’ve got to get the jewel shards out of its body!”

Kagome could see all the shards embedded in the demons right arm!

“Aim for his right arm!” she hollered to everyone.

“Yeah, easier said than done!” called Discord.

The demon spewed out more burning acid, which prompted Cadance, Twilight and Starlight to erect protective barriers around every single group everywhere-- even the royal couple!

The acid passed, and nobody was hurt, but Cadance, Starlight and Twilight were panting in exhaustion.

“Are you three okay?” asked Applejack

“A little tired, is all.” said Twilight.

“That cost us a lot of power,” added Starlight.

“We can’t keep this up much longer.” said Cadance “Our magic won’t last like this.”

“Oh, you’re just full of good news.” grunted Inuyasha.

Still, neither he nor the others were willing to back down yet.

“I’m going in!” shouted Inuyasha, and he bounded straight for the demon.

“Inuyasha!” called Kagome.

“Has he gone mad?!” cried Miroku.

“Just keep him distracted!” shouted Inuyasha.

The others realized, and then agreed.

The demon roared at Inuyasha and prepared to spew more acid at him.

“Oh, no you don’t!” thundered Rainbow Dash, and she soared straight at the demon’s huge head, yelling like a mad pony, and gave it a huge kick hard across its huge cheek.

…Rainbow got hit with recoil, and clutched her aching hind hooves, “That really smarts!” she groaned.

“Let’s blast it!” shouted Joe.

Everyone in every team began to fire small blasts at the demon.

“Aim for its eyes! Try to blind it!” shouted Sango.

The teams heeded her advice and shot by the demon’s face. The bright flashes from all the light attacks and explosions did blind and stun it.

This gave Inuyasha his big chance as he bounded up the demon’s huge body, and leapt along its right arm.

“TAKE THIS!!!” he shouted as he raised his sword hard and slashed with all his might, creating a huge gash in the demon’s arm, and all the shards came falling out.

“He got the shards!” cried Kari.

Sesshomaru watched in near disbelief, “Impressive.” he grumbled.

He then noticed Cyborg’s remains were sitting near him, and though it wasn’t in his best interest, he decided this was an important reason, and he grabbed the Tensaiga-- the magical healing sword!

Inuyasha landed on the ground and swiped the shards in his hand. “So much for that!” he gloated.

But then, he could hear a distinctive growling.

“What the hell…?!” cried Inuyasha, and everyone else gawked in horror.

“It can’t be!” cried Tai.

The demon had not inverted to its normal self, even with the shards removed from it.

Its right arm even healed magically!

“How can this be?!” cried Starfire “Removing the shards was not enough?”

Twilight figured there was one explanation: “Princess Luna’s magic!” she cried “The shard may be removed, but the pony magic is permanently infused into it!”

This greatly concerned everyone, especially Robin and Starfire, only they had the power to absorb dark aura, and just the two of them would not be enough to do the job.

…That wasn’t the worst of it.

Everyone was starting to feel rather exhausted from overusing their powers, not just against the demon, but during the war against the Dark Angels in the present-- which did not go well at all.

All their powers were running low, and could never hope to be recharged.

“Discord, can’t you send that thing off to a distant realm?” asked Fluttershy.

Discord shook his head, “I don’t even have enough to power to cook a meatball, let alone send this thing anywhere else.”

“You shouldn’t even if you could.” called Cody “Then you’d be subjecting other people to its wrath.”

Twilight could tell by seeing everyone, they could all combine their powers together for one final thunderous blast. After which they would be completely drained and have nothing left to even light a fire.

There was still one problem though…

“We need to weaken the demon just enough and then blast at it!” Twilight said.

“But you can’t!” cried Kagome “If you use your powers to weaken it, you won’t have enough to wipe it out.”

“Can’t we just divide up?” asked Yolei “You know, some of us weaken it, and some of us attack?”

Izzy shook his head, “It won’t be strong enough either way.”

“So what CAN we do?!” cried Matt.

The demon let out a roar and looked ready to charge.

The royal couple shuddered, and feared this was it for their friends, and then what would become of them too?!

“Princess!” hollered a voice. “Princess Tusyu…!”

The Princess knew that voice anywhere, and she looked straight up, and saw him come soaring in.

“Nobunaga…!”

Lord Kimo gasped, “I… I can see him!”

All the fighters looked up, and they could all see him too!

“My word!” said Myoga.

“Is that a dark angel?” asked Shippo.

Mirkou, Sango and Kiara were speechless. This was their first time ever seeing such a creature!

“I don’t get it.” said Kagome “How can everyone see him?”

Nobunaga hovered over the demon-- which could also see him, and roared at him too, but Nobunaga was no worried at all. Even in tangible state, he could not be injured.

He then clapped his hands together, and his body shrouded in dark aura, which he fired at the demon, and began to absorb its dark powers, while at the same time draining its energy.

The demon wouldn’t go down without a fight and began to struggle against the force-- using its own dark aura against Nobunaga’s!

The fighters were astonished and a bit confused that Nobunaga was actually helping them.

“Hurry…!” Nobunaga shouted “Attack while you can!”

The fighters all snapped to their sense and prepared to deliver the final blow!

“Hey!” Inuyasha called “I’ve got an idea! Everyone, focus your powers and fire them at me!”

“What?!” snapped Twilight.

“Is he crazy?” added Tai.

But Kagome knew what he was planning and urged the others, “Just do as he says!”

Robin and Starfire gawked at one another.

“Well, alright. This better be good.” said Robin.

All the fighters then grouped together standing in a straight line, while Inuyasha stood far away from them at a specific angle, with the demon in view far ahead of him.

The fighters all channeled as much of their powers as they could, and fired it straight at Inuyasha in a huge burst.

“Inuyasha!” cried Shippo, but Inuyasha just stood there as the power headed right at him, and he held up the Testsusaiga.

He knew Raven’s power, and the essence of the Dark Ocean, and the Dark Zone itself was mixed into the surge.

“That power is unfused with demonic aura!” he snarled “Which means, I can use it to my advantage.”

The blade of his sword began to conjure the powerful twister winds.

“Look!” cried Miroku “The Backlash Wave!”

“He’s to deflect the power towards the demon,” said Sango “…But with the power of the Tetsusaiga added to make it stronger!”

“BACKLASH WAVE”

With a huge thrust of his sword, Inuyasha struck the force hard, and deflected it straight towards the demon...

…And Nobunaga while he was still close to it!

“NOBUNAGA…!!” Tusyu screamed as she ran towards him, but her husband held her back while he watched in horror himself…

…The blast consumed the demon and Nobunaga, resulting in a huge explosion that was very bright and shook the lands.

The entire group hit the dirt and covered their eyes until the stress had passed.

Tsuyu was the first to open her eyes.

“Nobunaga?

…Nobunaga?!”

She feared the worst, but then she could see him looking back at her-- naturally unharmed-- and he smiled rather lovingly at her.

Tsuyu wiped the tears from her eyes, relieved he was alright.

The others all slowly got back up.

“Is everyone alright?” called Twilight.

“I think so…” groaned Ken.

Discord was clowning around as usual, pretending to have lost his head, and directing his body to pick it up and put it on right.

“The demon, it’s gone!” cried Kagome.

Everyone looked, and surely enough, there was not a sight of the demon anywhere. Just a few bits of bones, specks and puddles of blood, and the demons head lying on the ground with parts of its mane still intact.

Pinkie Pie felt really sick to be looking upon a demon’s corpse, but everyone else was relieved it was over, especially since now they could take the hairs of the demon to unlock the time magic.

Inuyasha clipped off loads of the hairs with his claws. “Okay, I think we’ve hung around here enough. Let’s get back to Kaede’s village.”

Suddenly, there was a small groaning sound,

“Ah… man…!”

Starfire and Robin’s hearts each skipped a beat, and they couldn’t believe their eyes.

“Cyborg?” called Robin.

It was him alright, fully alive, all his wounds healed, and his mechanisms were all fixed.

The Digi Destined couldn’t believe it.

“I thought he was killed!” cried Sora.

The ponies were astonished too, “It’s a miracle!” cried Starlight.

Kagome had a suspicion however, and it was confirmed as she looked way out ahead, and could see Sesshomaru far in the distance. He clutched the Tenssaiga and sheathed it before heading off.

Kagome couldn’t help but smile thankfully for what he had done.

Cyborg rubbed his eyes, “What’s going on here?”

Starfire rushed over and hugged him really tightly, weeping, “Oh, Cyborg! You are alive! I had thought we had lost you!”

Robin hugged him too, and cyborg suddenly remembered, “My legs didn’t work, and then I was covered by that brute’s mane and I was--”

He would have panicked and thought he was dead had his friends not calmed him down and assured him that he was alive and well-- though they still had no clue as to how.

…Kagome didn’t bother to explain. It wasn’t important now.

Everyone else was so happy to see him alive.

“Ahem!” groaned Inuyasha “Are we going to get going or what?!”

“He’s right. We still have a job to do.” said Tai.

With that, everyone headed for Kaede’s village. The royal couple tagged along so they could have a rest and be resupplied with horses and escort to continue their own mission.

Nobunaga went with them too, still hoping to do his one little thing!

Along the way, Inuyasha looked across the field and could swear he saw Kikyo standing on a hilltop, but when he looked again, she had already gone.

“What’s wrong?” asked Kagome.

Inuyasha hesitated, and then answered, “It’s nothing.”

Kikyo was most impressed that the teams were able to beat that demon; something that she herself was never able to, hence why it was sealed.

Without much left to consider, she just headed off.
