As the room where Takato and Guilmon were filled with light, so did the tunnel where the two had come from.
"Hey, what's with that light?" asked Kazu.
"I don't know, but didn't Takato and Guilmon go down there?" asked Guardromon as he scratched his metal head.
"What did goggle-head and dyno-brain get themselves into this time?" asked Rika. Meanwhile, in the light, Takato and Guilmon were looking around.
"Well bud, looks like Rika's going to blame us for something," said Takato as he looked at the light around him.
"Oh no," said Guilmon as he hid his face by placing his hands on his head.
"Takato Matsuki and Guilmon, you have been chosen to wield our power," said a voice out of nowhere.
"Who are you?" asked Takato.
"And what power are you talking about?" asked Guilmon with a slight tip of the head.
"The power of the nine digicrests," said the voice as the nine symbols appeared around the two.
"Wait, I knew I had seen those symbols before," said Takato as he pulled at car with WarGreymon on it out of his pocket.
"That's the digicrests of courage," said Takato as he pointed at a symbol that looked like a sun.
"Good, since you know about us we don't have to explain," said the voice as the crest of courage flashed its light.
"Now, please hold out both the legendary shield and your digivice," said the crest of knowledge as it flashed.
"By legendary shield, do you mean this gold plate?" asked Guilmon as Takato held the plate and his digivice out in front of him.
"Yes, and now you will have the power to fuse with your human fiends and their digimon's bio forms," said the crest of sincerity as it flashed. The nine symbols then fused into the legendary shield before it fused with the digivice.
"Well that was essay," said Takato as he looked at his digivice. As the light around the two faded, several little streams of light flew out of the digivice and down the tunnel.
"What is that?" asked Kenta as the lights came out of the tunnel. Suddenly, the lights fused with Ai, Mako, Jeri, Kazu, Kenta, Suzie, Alice, and all of their digimon, even the Paomon egg.
"Wh, what just happened?" asked Kenta with a lot of confusion.
"Is everyone alright?" asked Takato as he and Guilmon came running out of the tunnel.
"What did you do Takato?" asked Henry as he checked on Suzie, making sure the light did not hurt her.
"I don't know, a lot of stuff just happened," said Takato. Suddenly, a roar came from outside.
"What was that?" asked Jeri who was a bit scared.
"Nothing good," said Leomon with an angry look on his face.
