-Sometime later-
In the party the Digidestined were dancing with their dates, to which TK and Izzy, drew up their courage and asked Catherine and Mimi if they wanted to dance with them, which made the girls blush at first, but remained cool and gladly accepted, making Patamon, Floramon, Tentomon and Palmon smile to see their partners working their way up in revealing how they truly felt.
While glad to see Catherine happy, Floramon was curious and asked the other Digimon. "Are all human mating rituals this complicated?"
"Not all of them are. Take Tai and Sora. After she and Matt broke up, Tai took it upon himself to make sure Sora wasn't too upset and spent a fair amount of time with her, before Sora admitted she was a little glad she and Matt broke up, so she could be with the one she truly loved." Biyomon replied, looking over at the Digidestined of Courage and her partner, who were sitting on the couch and locked in a loving kiss.
"And a similar thing happened with Davis and Kari." Veemon said, quickly swallowing a handful of candy, before telling Floramon. "For sometime Davis had shown a great interest in being Kari's boyfriend, doing all kinds of crazy things to impress her. But after he realized actions wouldn't be enough, he took the time and wrote a letter, telling Kari exactly how he felt about her, which seemed to do the trick because they are boyfriend and girlfriend now."
"The things Davis wrote were quite sweet." Gatomon commented, before saying as she embraced Veemon.
"Almost as sweet as the letter you gave me." The Digimon of Light then commented and kissed Veemon, smiling as she tasted the remnants of candy in Veemon's mouth.
However, the party was soon put on hold when somebody asked. "May I interrupt this party? I didn't want to miss the party and miss the real fun."
The sudden voice caused the Digidestined to stop dancing, while the Digimon stopped eating and turn around to see who had said that
"Oh no that's Witchmon, we need to be careful against her. Not only is she quite the trickster, but with her Aquary Pressure, she attacks with a blast of water of such high pressure it is enough to penetrate steel." Tentomon said in warning.
Bracing himself for a fight, but curious, Tai asked. "What do you mean by you don't want to miss the real fun?"
"You will find out soon. When the hands of time reach the count of the first Digidestined, their true forms shall be revealed." Witchmon replied as she smirked, looking over at the clock on the wall and saw it was 7:59.
"What are you...?" Davis began to ask, but found he couldn't finish his sentence when he felt something was happening to him.
And he wasn't the only one, for the rest of the Digidestined felt same thing, causing Witchmon's smirk to remain on her face, before she started to laugh.
"Right on time." She said, watching as Davis and the others then collapsed onto all fours, grasping their heads and chests, while crying out in pain.
Concerned for their partners and friends, Veemon and the other Digimon ran over to their respective partner.
"Davis!" Veemon called in concern, unable to do anything but watch horrifically as the costume around Davis' body constricted around his body tightly, while the material around his neck began to spread upwards, where it covered his mouth, but did nothing to muffle his screams.
Seeing their suffering, Veemon and the other Digimon turned to face Witchmon and glared at her.
"What did you do to them?" Gatomon questioned in demand, wanting answers after watching the material that made up the pretend cat ears expand, ooze down and cover Kari's head completely.
"Oh, I just thought I'd make them feel what it would be like to be a wild Digimon and ruin their party." Said Witchmon, sounding proud of herself, shocking the Digimon, before they turned and saw their partners changing rapidly, to which the suits on each Digidestined tightened around their forms up to the point it looked like their actual skin, the various detailings such as Tai's mask, the false feather around Sora's forehead and the false drill on Cody's costume took on a more realistic appearance, while their cries died down and left the Digidestined in place, resting on their hands and knees.
"uhh... guys, are you ok?" Tentmon asked in a concerned tone, both for their friends and themselves.
"We feel ok." Izzy replied, ignoring the headache he had, before the others looked at the Digimon, only Tai, Matt, Davis and Kari were still on their knees, concerning their friends and causing Agumon to ask. "Tai are you ok?"
"Hey Matt, can you hear me?" Gabumon asked
"Come Davis get up. " Veemon said, worried and confused as to why he, Tai, Matt and Kari were still motionless.
"Kari, please answer me. Are you ok?" Gatomon asked in concern, before she, along with the others heard growling, making everyone think at first it was Veemon's stomach, but looking over at Tai, Matt, Davis and Kari, they saw them on all fours, snarling like wild animals.
"Looks like this is going to be good show." Witchmon commented as she sat on her broom, loving the confusion, worries and conflicts that the Digidestined were experiencing.
And a delighted smile appeared on her face as Tai and Davis stood, letting their claws out, while Matt and Kari remained on all fours, to which Kari let out a hiss sound and Matt actually howled.
"This is really bad. What are we going to do?" Joe questioned as he, Gomamon and the others watched as the four continued to look at them like they were natural enemies they planned to take down.
As Tai, Matt, Davis and Kari were about to attack their friends, upon seeing Jun, who now looked exactly like a silver furred Renamon, Matt stopped.
"Matt it's me. Jun, your girlfriend." She said in a gentle tone, seeing anger and rage on Matt's now wolf-like face, but could also see confusion in his eyes.
"We need to..." Izzy began to say, but stopped suddenly when Tai lunged at him, making the Digidestined of Knowledge jump back, a little surprised that he managed to get away from the attack.
Another attack came at them, only it was from Davis, who went for TK and tried to slice the Digidestined of Hope with his claws.
"We need to hold them back while one of us takes on Witchmon!" TK called out, while doing his best to avoid Davis from tearing him to pieces, causing Patamon and Veemon to assist as they got behind Davis and tugged at his tail, surprising them when both found it had a solid density and thrashed around from being touched.
"Yolei, Catherine, Jun and Sora you take on Kari. Me and Izzy, take on Davis. And Joe and TK will take on Tai and Matt." Ken said, quickly taking role as the new leader of the Digidestined.
"Wait. So I have to take on Witchmon myself? " Cody suddenly questioned, his tone full of fear, until he saw Armadillomon step beside him.
"Don't ya worry Cody. So long as I'm with ya, you'll never be alone." Armadillomon stated, making Cody nod as he felt his confidence return.
"Guys, let's see if we can still Digivolve or Armour Digivolve, except for you guys." Ken said, making the Digidestined nod, while Agumon, Veemon, Gabumon and Gatomon understood that with their partners acting on behalf of the enemy, they were incapable of Digivolution.
"Let's give it a try. Digi-armour Energize!" Cody and Yolei called out, before both Digidestined were encircled in powerful auras word was here Armadillomon and Hawkmon
"Armadillomon Armour Digivolve to... Digmon, the Drill of Knowledge!"
"Hawkmon Armor Digivolve to... Shurimon, the Samurai of sincerity!"
Seeing the bond Cody and Yolei shared with their Digimon helped them achieve their Armour forms filled the remaining Digidestined with hope and determination, making them feel more confident in themselves and confident they could stop Witchmon and save their friends from the cursed costumes that were manipulating them.
"Digivolve!" Ken, Mimi, Izzy, TK, Catherine, Joe and Jun all called out, feeling a great power unleashed from each of them and into their Digimon.
"Wormmon Digivolve to... Stingmon!"
"Palmon Digivolve to... Lillymon!"
"Tentomon Digivolve to... Kabuterimon!"
"Patamon Digivolve to... Angemon!"
"Floramon Digivolve to... Blossomon!"
"Gomamon Digivolve to... Zudomon!"
"Silvermon Digivolve to... Kyubimon!"
