Authors Note: Alight let's pretend that Ai and Mako didn't know about Impmon digivolving into Beelzemon. This chapter takes place after Takato found the portal in the last episode and Impmon is back with Ai and Mako.

"Ai, Mako what are you guys doin?" said a violet color digimon walking towards the twins. They turned around and smirked maliciously and went deeper into the box and pulled out what looked like a mask.

The digimon, Impmon was confused until they turned around suddenly and screamed with a kind of mask on. It looked like a skull with…blood? Well whatever it was it did a good job for giving Impmon a heart attack.

"What was that for? Did ya wanna kill me or something?" Impmon glared. Mako and Ai laughed and rolled on the floor in hysterics.

"Impmon, don't you know anything about Halloween?" asked Mako, a now 6 year old boy with walnut hair and eyes. Ai looked exactly the same but in a pony tail of the chocolate like hair.

"Hal-ow-een? What the heck's a Halloween?" asked Impmon putting his hands on his hips.

"It's a holiday where you scare people and become someone your not." Replied Ai while taking other stuff out of the box. "Me and Mako are dressing up and going to go trick-or-treating. You can come too and not be hidden because everyone will think you're in a costume!"

The explanation gave Impmon his trademark smile. Mischievous thoughts entered his mind from 'Badaboom' Geomon, to lighting Renamon's tail on fire.

"This Halloween sounds interesting…" said Impmon walking on the rooftops of West Shujkin. "I could probitaly pull off some good pranks." He looked down below him to notice a couple kissing.

"Duty calls." He muttered as he jumped down and prepared for a lot of screaming.

Over the past week pumpkins, decorations that resembled skulls, bats and ghosts started to appear on people's houses.

"Does everyone go trick-or-treating?" Impmon asked Mako. They were trying to come up with a good costume for Ai while Ai was making a costume for Mako. Only Impmon knew what they were both making so Ai doesn't turn Mako into a princess and vice versa.

"Yep most of the kids some adults and teens too but usually it's to trash the pumpkins of take us kids out." He replied drawing out the costume. It was going to be an Impmon costume he decided but instead of the red bandana and the evil smiley face it would be pink gloves and bandana with a happy smiley.

Impmon nodded and went downstairs to see what Ai was up to. Along the way he started to suddenly remember about them not knowing about him being able to digivolve.

"I should tell 'em about me" he whispered to himself but shook his head. No doubt they were going to be terrified of his digivolved form. Maybe when they're older he would tell them.

"Whatcha up to Ai?" asked Impmon as he sat down beside her. She had that thoughtful look in her eyes as she colored with a blue crayon.

"Finishing up Mako's costume." She replied, putting down the blue crayon. The girl lifted up the picture and showed it to Impmon. "What do you think?"

It was Impmon costume of course with green bandana and gloves with an angry smiley face on it. Impmon would have laughed and told Ai about her costume but it would be hysterical to see their reactions on the day. A thought came to Impmon about his digivolved form.

"Hey Ai? What would you think of me if I digivolved?" he asked quietly. Ai looked at him in question as Impmon rambled on. "I mean like if I grew stronger? Would ya still like me?"

"Impmon we would still love you if you digivolved remember when you turned from Eimon to you? We didn't hate you then so why would ya hate you now?" Impmon somehow understood her answer even though ironically it was more questions.

"I was just wondering you know." He sighed and went upstairs to check on Mako to see if he did something that Ai didn't like. Sure enough he put several guns on the costume.

Finally the day of Halloween has arrived. Kids were excited beyond belief while parents took their aspirins early and put on warm clothes. Impmon smirked when he saw Mako dressed as another Impmon in green while Ai in pink.

"How do we look?" The costume wasn't that bad they spray painted the fur from the previous costume from last year. What were they? Chicken? Cow? Aw, who gives about it?

"You know the plan right Impmon?" asked Mako. Impmon nodded and smirked jumping out of the window.

"Bye mom, dad!" the twins both yelled in union grabbing their pillow sacs and ran out of the door in a flash.

"Okay Impmon we just go up say 'trick or treat' and get our candy." Ai said as they walked up the drive way. After leaving Impmon had a disgusted look in his face.

"Who gives apples on Halloween?" he sneered picking up the fruit on a stick.

"It's a carmel covered apple, they are really good." Replied Mako.

The pattern continued until they were almost two blocks from their house. Impmon started to feel the strain in his legs and suggested to go back home.

"One more house please?" asked Mako while pouting. Of course them being Impmon's tamer he just couldn't say no.

Suddenly the air started to chill more and the trio shivered. The D Arc started to beep red. Impmon's green eyes narrowed around him.

"What's wrong Impmon?" asked Ai worriedly.

"There's another Digimon around." He replied looking around. Suddenly a white fog enclosed around the trio. "Stay with my guys! I'll protect ya."

"Oh really you pathetic creature?" came a haunted voice. Impmon saw a ghost like creature floating above it bore sever cloths and a scythe floating magically beside it.

"I'm Phantomon and I shall take over this world on the day of evil!" it cried glowing black.

"Not if I can help it you piece of scum." Impmon replied. "Summon flame!" he cried as a large ball of fire blasted at the evil digimon but it didn't do a scratch.

"He must be an Ultimate!" cried Ai. Mako nodded and yelled,

"Be careful Impmon!"

The ghost like digimon turned to the Impmon look a likes.

"So you humans want to be digimon eh? Well I can help you there. Dark Matter!" he cried spreading a red and black fog over the twins.

"Ai! Mako! No!" Impmon dashed into the fog but felt suddenly strange his whole body was shaping differently as if he was digivolving but the power was suddenly decreasing.

"What's going on Impmon!" cried Ai. Mako screamed too.

"I dunno!" he replied trying to get them out of the fog but it was no use. Finally darkness consumed them all and they fell somewhat asleep.

"Wake up!"

Impmon stirred a little. Just a few more minutes…wait a minute. Everything was coming back to him now. Slowly he opened his green eyes and looked at the sky. It was pitch black. Not a good sign.

"Ai, Mako?" he whispered standing up but he fell down again. He suddenly felt different, as if he couldn't keep his balance. He tried again and this time succeeded with a little swaying.

"Impmon! Over here!" Ai called running to him, something looked different about her. Of course she had an Impmon costume on but it looked so…real now.

"Ai where's Mako?" asked Impmon, but Ai soon stopped and took a step back while Mako came running beside her.

"Ai? Ai what's wrong?"

"What happened to you?" she asked slowly walking over to him. He grew a worried and confused expression as he looked at his hands. Five fingers were looking straight back at him. This was not good.

"What happened to me?" he asked slowly. This was confusing.

Ai pointed to a fountain down the road and Impmon wasted no time and ran to see what that stinkin' thing did to him. Ai and Mako ran behind him but was somehow able to run faster than him. Impmon noticed something about their tails, they went limb and fake they twisted and turn almost like it was…alive.

If felt like an age before Impmon came to the fountain and stared at his reflection. He couldn't speak since fear was holding his voice down. He wasn't a digimon anymore but he was a human! Instead of his purple fur he had peach like skin, his eyes were still green but his hair was bright red flopping down on his eyes. So that what it was… His attire didn't scare him but it was sure different. Purple shirt and shorts with the same smiley on. His red bandana and gloves were still on him too.

"When I see that creep I'm gunna rip him apart!" he yelled. Breathing heavily he suddenly thought of something. If he was a human then Ai and Mako are…

"You guys musta been turn into Digimon just like I turned into a kid!" he cried.

"You look more like a teen actually." Ai said while Mako nodded. "So what are we going to do now?"

"As much as it pains me to say this," Impmon now took a deep breath. "We gotta go get help from the others. Let's start with Takato and pineapple head first."

"Hello Matsuda bakery how may I help you?" Takato asked as the trio entered the building.

"Wow those are good costumes!" He commented handing a piece of candy to Ai and Mako who frowned.

"They aint in stinkin' costumes" said Impmon. Takato gasped and looked at the teen.

"Impmon? Is that you? Wow that is a really good costume! Are these guys your friends or something?"

"Takato! It's us! Ai and Mako!" cried Mako. He felt a little frustrated but didn't notice until he sent a ball of flame towards the red Digimon that came running down the stairs.

"Mako!" Ai cried. "Don't do that!"

"Sorry it's kinda hard when you just turn into a Digimon!" he snapped back. The two engaged into a fight once again pulling at each others hair and occasional fireballs.

"Whoa what happened to you guys?" Takato asked as he patted out a couple of the fires. The twins continued to engage in battle. Impmon explained to Takato while getting out two glasses of water and filling them up. He rushed over to the twins and dumped both glassed on each of their heads.

"Will ya guys knock it off for a sec?"

"Sorry Impmon." They both muttered and sat down.

"Takatomon what are we going to do?" asked Geomon the red dino digimon.

"I dunno boy we should call the others and patrol the city for Phantomon." He replied casually as he picked up the phone. Impmon smacked his forehead. Not only will everyone know that he turned into a stinkin' human but it will lead to suggestions including him turning into Beelzemon which he didn't want to twins to know yet.

"Nuh no" he said putting the phone back but it was too late Takato was already talking to Rika.

"Okay see you soon." Takato said hanging up the phone with a childish look on his face. "Rika's calling everyone and we will all meet here."

"Great just great but look I gotta tell ya something before my tamers learn how to hear." Takato and Impmon walked into another room and spoke in whispers.

"I haven't told them I can digivolve yet and it's best for them not to know…at least not now. And don't come askin for reasons it's my business ya hear me?" Impmon spoke the last part with his usual snotty attitude. Takato sighed and nodded and said he would tell everyone else.

First people to arrive were Kazu and Kenta along with Jeri and their digimon.

"So where are the twins?" asked Kazu before hearing a small voice.

"Up here" called Ai who she and Mako were on the ceiling rafters and were walking around. Kazu called for them to come down but the two just stuck out their tongue and kept on walking around up there.

"So that must mean the kid here is Impmon." Kenta said pointing to the teen in purple clothes who was scowling darkly.

"I'm not a kid!" he shouted and attempted to 'Badaboom' him but remembered he was a human now.

"Momentai!" a familiar voice called out. The group looked to see Terrimon, Lopmon, Suzie, Henry, Rika, Ranamon, Rio and Cyberdramon.

"Momentai yourself bunny. How would you feel if you turned into a human and had to make sure these guys wont burn down the whole building?"

"Had you realized that Impmon is acting more…grown up?" asked Rika towards Renamon. Renamon nodded and looked up towards the twins.

"I see you guys learned some of Impmon's skills." The two nodded.

"You guys get down here!" Impmon called down but was greeted by a small fireball whizzing past his shoulder. "Do you want me to get a hose again Mako?"

After some grumbling, yelling and most of all laughing from Terriermon the whole gang was sitting around with a huge map of the city in the middle. Impmon felt odd as he was listening Takato and Henry argue of where everyone should go. He should have had that urge to go out and jump around but he didn't. These human feelings are confusing-wait if he felt human feelings then Mako and Ai would want to explore everywhere. Plus with Phantomon out he will no doubt fight them and he could never forgive himself if he lost his only tamers.

"Okay Takato's group takes the north, our group will take the east, Rika's group takes west and Impmon's group takes south." Commanded Henry as he took Terriermon, Lopmon, Suzie, Kenta and Marineangelmon. Takato and Geomon took Jeri, Calumon, Kazu and Gaurdrmon. Rika and Renamon took Rio, and Cyberdramon. That left Impmon and his tamers.

"I'll be fine I can take care of myself and these guys." He said after an altercation. "C'mon guys lets go and don't wonder off." The trio walked out of the bakery and turned left heading south.

"I have to agree he is acting more like a grown up." Henry said while everyone else nodded.

"C'mon Impmon we can take that stupid Phantomon!" cried Ai who was hopping from tree to tree. The trio was in south of Tokyo in a small park searching for anyway to get back to normal.

"You guys have no clue how to control that power you have!" cried Impmon who was running after them. Suddenly he lost his balance again and tripped.

"And you don't know what its like to be a human; especially a teenager human. I hear they cry from time to time." Said Mako who landed beside Impmon.

"Well you can be sure that I will not cry." Said Impmon closing his green eyes and took a deep breath. The last thing he needed was to let these emotions run wild. "And you should be controlling those powers. The last thing you need is to burn the whole city down with them. But I can understand if you can't because you guys are too weak it takes a real digimon like me to control them."

Suddenly Impmon heard female voices. Quickly he told Mako and Ai to hide in the tree above them. He turned around and saw about three girls walking across the park. One near the front had medium blonde hair with side bangs and wore a princess costume. Another had brown curly hair and wore a revealing cat costume while the last one also had blonde hair but it had streaks of brown and she wore a mouse costume.

Impmon noticed that they were looking at him. He desperately hoped that they would keep on walking. Unfortunley no one heard Impmon's plea as the girls started to walk towards him.

"Hey I haven't seen you around here. Are you from another part of the city?" the princess asked.

"Uh, yeah," Impmon said quietly the less talk he did the less they know.

"Hey you're kinda cute are you taken?" asked the mouse. The three girls laughed as well as two other voices. Impmon was blushing like crazy and shook his head no.

"Well come with us. Were heading to a party and its gunna have drinks and all of the good stuff." The cat girl took Impmon's arm and the princess took the other while the mouse girl walked beside the princess.

"Uhh listen I would love to but-"Impmon hadn't heard any more laughing and if he were them he would be in hysterics. Something was wrong. He got out of the girl's gasps and looked up in the tree to see no one.

"Wait till I get my hands on them." He muttered dangerously. Phantomon could be anywhere and they were playing this stupid game of hide and seek.

"Uhh I gotta go." Impmon said but he sighed in dismay as the three girls just ran after him with eerie red eyes.

"What the- you aint humans!" Impmon cried backing up a little. The girls smiled as they changed into floating ghosts.

"Great just great! I have to find Mako and Ai!" he started to run as hard as he could. Surprisingly he could run pretty fast.

"Stupid feelings, stupid human form. STUPID PHANTOMON!" he yelled as the ghosts were catching up to him. Impmon started to consider where the kids may have gone. Home? Nah they have to be somewhere high, a building…Got it!

Impmon started to climb the fire ladder of the apartment. This apartment had one of the highest views and it was easy to get to. It was the most common place he went to when he left Ai and Mako.

Sure enough the two were on the ledge sitting down staring into the midnight sky. A full moon shone and almost hypnotized him. He took a step and they turned around.

"Impmon!" They cried running to them. They stopped just before running into them. Their brown eyes were filled with tears and Impmon could see why. Several scratches and messed up patches of fur covered the two.

"What happened?" Impmon asked but he had an idea of an answer. Mako told half of the story while running off they met a ghost digimon and got beat up pretty badly. They tried fighting them but they were too powerful.

"I wish I was human again!" Ai cried hugging Mako and Mako did the same thing.

"And I wish I was a digimon again. I have no clue how you humans handle these emotions and be able to keep balance."

"Were sorry for giving you a hard time. It was just that we had this feeling to go out and jump run do something!"

Impmon smirked and told them it was natural for a digimon to feel that way. Suddenly the twins embraced Impmon who blushed a little. A white glow started to emerge from Mako and Ai as they turned back to normal.

"Yes! Thank god having a tail felt weird." Ai said taking off the hood part of her costume. Mako did the same thing and smiled.

"But what about me? I don't want to be a stupid human anymore!"

"Ah, there you are." Came the familiar haunted voice. Impmon turned around and glared at Phantomon.

"You again! This time I'm going to kick your butt all the way to Canada!"

"You? Hah! A pathetic human can't do a thing but watch as I haunt this whole world!"

Impmon was furious now. He can't let Mako and Ai get hurt along with everyone else! He had to change back somehow! His will started to rise.

"I won't let you hurt anyone! Especially my tamers who can be a pain once in awhile but are really great humans and take care of me even though I had been such a selfish jerk!" A white light surrounded Impmon as he shrank and turned into his digimon self.

"Impmon your back!" Mako and Ai started to race towards him but Phantomon grabbed them both and floated towards the edge of the building.

"Well this happily ever after was nice and all but I should end it now. See if you can save them now Impmon!" Phantomon laughed insanely as he dropped the two children who screamed to their deaths below. They didn't notice that their D Arc started to glow slightly a white light.

"Ai! Mako no!" Impmon cried jumping off the building too. He had to digivolve now! If he didn't- well he can't think of what will happen. The familiar energy of turning into his mega form returned.

"Impmon digivolve to…Beelzemon Blast Mode!" the biker digimon flapped his black wings and flew straight down to catch Mako and Ai. They shrieked when they found themselves in his grasp.

"Relax guys it's me" he gruffed as he flew upwards barely missing the pavement. The children were too terrified to answer but nodded their heads.

"You wanna mess with me punk?" Beelzemon called taking out his guns. "Well here you are!" he shot several gun shots until Phantomon started to die and loose his data. The white digimon ghosts started to fade away as well suddenly but leaving an ear piercing shriek. Beelzemon let the data get away and turned around towards Mako and Ai who were whimpering.

"I'm sorry you have to see me like this guys." He muttered kneeling down. "I just didn't know what you may have thought of me like this. I can understand if you guys don't like me anymore." He closed his three green eyes and put his head down. Instead of Mako and Ai crying they felt them hugging him.

"Beelzemon we would never do that! Just because you digivolved doesn't mean we don't like you." Ai said smiling.

"In fact you look so cool! What can you do? Huh?" Mako asked while Ai nodded. Beelzemon smirked and told them to climb on.

"You better hang on cause it's gunna be a wild ride!" he flew off the building and took off for their next destination: home.

The ride was incredible to Mako and Ai. Their digimon could fly, ride a super cool bike, shoot guns and even had this special attack called the Chrona Blaster! And best of all: he was in his mega form!

They landed in the backyard and Beelzemon turned back into Impmon. The three breathed in relief as they walked in. Impmon jumped on the roof and walked into their room from an open window.

"Hey mom! Sorry we were late!" they cried running upstairs and shutting the door. Their mom however was asleep while watching the movie Nightmare Before Christmas.

As the trio fell asleep Impmon thought of today's events and came to a final whispered conclusion. To him it summed everything up.

"Halloween is one weird holiday."
