The two teens and their Digimon took in their surroundings and from what they could see they were in a jungle region of the Digital World and in the distance they could see smoke coming from a small village.
"It looks like that village is in trouble." Davis said.
"That's the Koromon village and you're right." T.K. replied.
"Well what are we waiting for? Let's go save them." Patamon asked, Davis and T.K. nodded then pulled out their D-3s.
"Digi Armour Energize!"
"Veemon Digivolve to… Raidramon: The storm of Friendship."
"Patamon Digivolve to… Pegasusmon: Flying hope."
Davis climbed onto Raidramon's back and T.K. climbed onto Pegasusmon they then headed toward the village as fast as they could, unbeknownst to them that their every move had been watched.
'Hmm it seems that the DigiDestined of Courage and Friendship and the DigiDestined of Hope are the only ones who have taken my bait?' The Digimon Emperor thought to himself as he watched his enemies head toward the Koromon village and be the heroes yet again. He then let out a small chuckle.
'No matter I will get the rest of them later.'
The Koromon village was in absolute chaos and panic as controlled Tyrranomon and Snimon were pursuing the Koromon in groups. One Tyrannomon had cornered a small group of Koromon and was about to engulf the helpless Digimon in a fireball of oblivion but before Tyrannomon could execute his attack a massive bolt of azure thunder struck him in the back stunning him, which gave the Koromon time to flee. After Tyrannomon recovered from the shock he turned around to see the DigiDestined of Courage and Friendship standing next to Raidramon.
"Why don't you pick on someone your own size you overgrown lizard?" Davis taunted.
"Uh Davis in case you haven't noticed we're not exactly the same size." Raidramon told his friend.
"Aw man why'd you have to ruin the mood?" Davis whined.
Davis then let out a small sigh. "Just get the Dark Ring of him." He told Raidramon while pointing to the Dark Ring around Tyrannomon's chest.
"Right." Raidramon charged at Tyrannomon with great haste while Tyrannomon charged toward Raidramon.
"Fire Blast!" Tyrannomon shouted as it fired a round of fireballs at Raidramon but Raidramon quickly dodged the attack then tackled Tyrannomon to the ground.
"Electric bite!" Raidramon then bit into the Dark Ring and broke the ring apart with his razor sharp fangs, freeing Tyrannomon from the Dark Ring's evil influence.
"Way to go Raidramon." Davis cheered. Raidramon turned toward Davis and a look of shock appeared on his face.
"Davis behind you!" Raidramon warned. Davis turned around to see another Tyrannomon charging toward him and Raidramon was too far away to save him. Meanwhile Pegasusmon was flying above the village and was against a swarm of five Snimon while T.K. watched below.
"Star Shower!" Pegasusmon then released a barrage of stars from his wings that managed to hit three Snimon while two managed to avoid the attack.
"Slamming Attack!" The Snimon shouted before charging at Pegasusmon with a full body tackle and before Pegasusmon could react the Insect Digimon slammed into Pegasusmon, sandwiching him and causing him to let out a small cry of pain. "Pegasusmon are you alright?" T.K. asked, concerned for his friend.
"I'm fine." Pegasusmon replied. "It will take a lot more then that to beat me."
"Watch out!" T.K. warned as the Snimon were going to ram into him again from the front and behind, however this time Pegasusmon was ready for them.
"Equus Beam!" Pegasusmon shouted as he fired a beam of green energy at the Snimon coming from the front, stunning the bug and causing it to lose its focus. Pegasusmon quickly flew upward, catching the other Snimon off guard, which resulted in the two mantis Digimon to crash into each other and fall down. Tyrannomon had almost caught up to Davis and was about to strike the teen but before he did the Snimon that Pegasusmon had just beaten fell from the sky and slammed into Tyrannomon's head, knocking all three of them out.
"Thunder Blast!" Raidramon roared as he fired a shot of lightning from his horn, which hit the Tyrannomon and Snimon, breaking the Dark Rings around their chests.
"Now that's left is the Control Spire. Raidramon do the honours."
"My pleasure. Thunder Blast!" Raidramon then fired another shot of lightning from his horn at the Control Spire, breaking it to pieces and freeing the Koromon village from the Digimon Emperor's tyranny. Meanwhile the Digimon Emperor and Wormon had seen the whole fight play out on his screen. Wormon looked up, expecting to see Ken furious that Davis and T.K. had beaten more of his slaves and destroyed another one of his Control Spires but instead he was smiling, which only confused the small bug.
"Master why are you smiling?" Wormon asked. "I would've thought for sure you'd get angry that Tyrranomon and Snimon failed to beat the DigiDestined." In response to Wormon's statement Ken started to laugh.
"This was all part of my plan Wormon. I knew those useless fools would fail me I only ordered them to attack the Koromon to lure the DigiDestined to me." The Digimon Emperor then got out of his throne and walked out of the room.
'Now that I've lured out those Digipests stage two of my plan can begin.'
