NOVEL WEB -Chapter 25-

<3rd Person - POV>
“Freeze Fang!”
“Lightning Fur!”
A small silver-colored hedgehog was fiercely fighting a large jet wolf in the middle of the hot desert. Electric spikes shot out towards the wolf, which, with the utmost ease, dodged each one before lunging towards the hedgehog.
Squinting, the hedgehog quickly wrapped itself into a spiky ball, quickly dodging the wolf's large bite by the skin of its teeth.
However, having missed the bite, the madman's mouth filled with sand.
“Blueg...” The wolf, BlackGarurumon, began to twitch uncomfortably as it spat out all the sand it had mistakenly bitten. “What the... shit... blueg...”
“Hahaha!” Suddenly, a mocking laugh made the wolf's eyes sharpen as he turned his head and watched the silver hedgehog roll around in the sand, letting out loud guffaws.
“You're going to pay for this...” BlackGarurumon growled angrily as he shot a murderous glare at Herissmon, who simply seemed to laugh even harder at the wolf's reaction.
“Um... I think it's your fault this time, BlackGarurumon” A nervous voice caused the wolf to look up to see Patamon flying above them with noticeable exhaustion. The timid Digimon, sensing the wolf's murderous intent directed at him, quickly explained himself out of fear of being part of his brutal training. “I mean, uh, you were the one who attacked too low, and that's why you ate sand”
“Tch...” The wolf simply clicked his tongue, unwilling to acknowledge his mistake, before stopping and looking off into the distance. “What's that?”
Brushing tears from his eyes, Herissmon looked with amusement at BlackGarurumon. “Whew... wh-what's the matter, did that sand dry your brain?... hehe...”
“No... I hear it too” Patamon nodded as he descended and perked up his big ears. “It sounds like, uh, forget it; I don't know what that sound is...”
“Huh?” Herissmon blinked in bewilderment, but before he could say anything, a shout interrupted him.
“Hey! Noah's awake already!” TK exclaimed as he quickly approached the group of Digimons with a smile on his face. He walked over to BlackGarurumon's side causing the big wolf to look at him with a raised eyebrow. “He said he thinks it would be a good idea to leave the church to replenish the food and to keep looking for the others—uh, the other humans, I mean.”
'Looks like he noticed that problem too...' thought the big wolf with an inward smile before looking at TK. “Hey TK, can you ask Noah to-”
Brrummm...
BlackGarurumon raised his head to watch in confusion as a strange tube-like figure quickly approached them. “What is that?”
“It looks like... a truck?” TK's confused voice caught the wolf's attention.
“A truck?... what the hell is that?... Never mind, never mind” BlackGarurumon muttered skeptically before turning his gaze to Herissmon, who was squinting at the strange vehicle that was rapidly approaching them. “Herissmon, go get Noah!”
“Okey-” Suddenly large dark wires came out of the ground and wrapped around Herissmon tightly, pinning him tightly to the ground.
“What is this?!” the hedgehog shouted loudly as he tried to cut the wires with his barbs, but these didn't seem to have any kind of effect on said wires.
“What-”
Before the wolf realized it, his paws had already been grabbed by the dark wires, keeping him firmly pressed against the ground. Out of the corner of his vision, he managed to watch as Patamon was also caught by the wires in mid-air.
“BlackGarurumon!” TK exclaimed in fear as he tried and failed to free BlackGarurumon from the wires, but they seemed as if they were attached to the big wolf's body!
And as if that realization was a strange sign, suddenly the truck loomed imposingly in front of them. Quickly, they all held their breath as they fixed all their attention on the big, strange monster made of metal....
“OHHHHHHHH! YEAHHHHHHHH!”
... and in the blink of an eye that sense of danger and dignity was shattered by a strange scream coming from the truck.
BlackGarurumon looked at TK in confusion, only to see that the boy was just as confused as he was. The two shared a glance before turning their attention back to the truck... talking?
“From all corners of the world, his name resounds! He has won hundreds of titles throughout his career! Your beautiful singing is irresistible to the sexiest Digimon!” Exclaimed the voice with great enthusiasm as suddenly the truck began to be covered in smoke, and the back seemed to slowly open up forming a sort of platform resembling concert platforms, only much smaller. “It's nothing more or less than...”
“ETEMON! THE KING OF THE DIGIMON!”
The smoke suddenly cleared; it was as if the force of the voice was powerful enough to clear the smoke easily, revealing an orange monkey with sunglasses and a cocky grin on his face.
“I MEAN... ME!” Exclaimed the self-proclaimed King of the Digimon as he let out a big laugh and pointed his thumb at himself.

“Who are you?” BlackGarurumon asked as he squinted at the eccentric monkey. Despite being trapped by these strange wires, the big wolf didn't feel in any real danger right now.
“Are you deaf puppy?!” Etemon asked with a scowl before bringing a hand to his chin and muttering aloud “Hmph! That was anticlimactic... should I make the entrance again? No, that would be silly, it wouldn't have the same impact as the original reveal so readers and viewers wouldn't like it...”
Shaking his head, Etemon turned his attention back to the group of Digimon with a big smile, as if nothing had happened. The others just gave him a puzzled look, feeling too puzzled to interrupt the strange Digimon again.
“As I was saying... ETEMON! THE KING DIGIMON!” The sexiest star in the movies exclaimed as he twirled his microphone in his hands before pointing it at the group. “I'm here to look for some dirty little humans who have sneaked into my territory without my permission! So let's make this quick okay?! I have places and women to visit!”
Growling menacingly, BlackGarurumon sent an unfriendly glare at the monkey.
“There aren't any humans here! So beat it, you stupid clown!”
Etemon simply glared at him silently. Both Digimon stared at each other in a staring contest before Etemon averted his gaze,
“Oh I see...” Etemon paused for a second before scratching a cheek and turning away, looking deeply embarrassed. “I'm so sorry... s-sorry for the inconvenience-”
SMASH!
“Guh...”
“That's what you thought I'd say isn't it!” Etemon exclaimed angrily as he stomped hard on BlackGarurumon's muzzle forming a small crater around it. “You think I'm a dumb puppy?! I could use your fur for my new couch if I felt like it! Is it that your mother didn't teach you about respect or was she too fat to teach you basic manners?”
'W-What time did he move?!' BlackGarurumon thought in disbelief as his mind seemed to fade from every blow received from Etemon. '... this clown... is... very strong...'
“Hey! Leave him alone!” Herissmon exclaimed as he sharpened his barbs to the maximum and shot lightning bolts in a pathetic attempt to free himself from the stupidly resistant wires. “What are these things and what are they made of?!”
“Glad you asked bob!” Etemon gave them a huge, bright smile as he struck a pose that seemed to focus his muscles as large wires shot out of the ground and posed next to him. “These beauties are my latest creation! The Dark-Webs! With these babies I can monitor the entire continent with no problem! Everything! Twenty-four hours a day for the entire week, for every month of the year!”
“So you're a stalker?!”
Herissmon's sneer immediately made the wires tighten sharply, cutting off Herissmon's voice on the spot.
Etemon gave him an innocent smile even though a dark aura seemed to surround him.
“Did you say something bob?”
“Muoh ahre a hasdd...”
Etemon smirked and sneered as he watched the air escape from Herissmon.
“I thought so.”
