Chapter 3

The Clash of Digital Titans

Back in the Primary Village everyone is looking at the monstrous DigiMaster wondering what the heck was going on including Keith and Patamon.

"And I thought Whamon was big," said Patamon.

"What kind of mess has Gyro gotten himself into?" wondered Keith.

Suddenly, he saw MegaGargomon fly up. Everybody started making comments about the fact that the rouge Mega Level Digimon being there at the same time a gigantic monster appeared.

Keith said, "MegaGargomon? Things must really be bad if he had Terriermon digivolve into MegaGargomon. Even though I never saw Terriermon digivolve into MegaGargomon with my own two eyes I could always tell it was Terriermon. However whenever I saw him as MegaGargomon Gyro was never around. At least I know that Gyro knows about Terriermon's Mega Level form. Question is why doesn't the DigiMaster just ban Gyro instead of attacking him. It just doesn't make sense."

"Do you really think this is just some online game?" asked Patamon.

"I'm not sure anymore," answered Keith.

Back at the DigiMaster's estate MegaGargomon used Gargo Missile which causes him to fire his shoulder missiles at his enemy. They exploded on impact causing a bunch of smoke to cover up all of the DigiMaster in sight. Suddenly, the DigiMaster's giant hand arose out of the smoke and slashed MegaGargomon causing him to fall down. They hit the ground hard.

"We need to be more careful Terriermon," said Gyro in MegaGargomon's mind.

"Right," said Terriermon.

MegaGargomon got up and flew up quickly to the DigiMaster's chest and he punched with Power Pummel hitting him straight in the chest. Even with the shockwave Power Pummel created, he didn't even budge an inch.

"Is that all you got?" taunted the DigiMaster as he slapped MegaGargomon into the wall, "Had enough yet?"

"Heck no," replied MegaGargomon as he got out of the wall and rose up some more.

MegaGargomon opened up all the weapon compartments on his entire body and fired every weapon in them. This attack is known as Mega Barrage. This caused another explosion. Once again the DigiMaster was unphased and he grabbed MegaGargomon just as his weapon compartments closed.

"Any last words digidestined?" taunted the DigiMaster as he started squeezing the life out of MegaGargomon.

"Aww man that hurts," said Gyro in MegaGargomon's mind.

Back in Primary Village, everyone is watching the fight with horror on their faces especially Keith.

"Aww man. MegaGargomon is getting his butt whooped. I wish there was something I could do," whished Keith.

Suddenly, a couple of Digignomes appeared right in front of Keith.

"Hey do you guys know any way I can help Gyro and MegaGargomon?" asked Keith to the Digignomes.

Suddenly, the Digignomes grabbed Keith's D3 and started flying away.

"Hey get back here," exclaimed Keith as he gave chase.

"Hey don't forget me," exclaimed Patamon as he flew to catch up to Keith.

The Digignomes lead Keith straight to the DigiMaster's estate and gave him back his digivice right at the entrance. Then, they flew away.

Keith looked around and said, "Oh I get it. Those Digignomes were trying to help me. (He tighten his grip on his digivice) Patamon are you ready? We're going to help Gyro and MegaGargomon."

"I'm ready. Do what you need to do," answered Patamon.

"Got it. Digi-Armor Energize!" exclaimed Keith.

Suddenly, a beam of light came out of his D-Terminal and went into his digivice where the Digiegg of Hope came out of.

"Patamon Armor Digivolve to…" said Patamon as he began to fuse with the Digiegg of Hope.

Fusing with the Digiegg of Hope allowed Patamon to Armor Digivolve into Pegasusmon.

"Pegasusmon, Flying Hope," exclaimed Pegasusmon when he was done digivolving.

"You ready Keith?" asked Pegasusmon.

"Yeah, I'm ready," replied Keith as he hoped on Pegasusmon.

Pegasusmon took flight and started flying towards the DigiMaster who was still squeezing the life out of MegaGargomon.

"Aww man, this hurts. Luckily this armor is so resilient," cried Gyro in pain in MegaGargomon's mind.

"We need to find a way out of this situation," cried Terriermon also in pain in MegaGargomon's mind.

Suddenly, Gyro's digivice which is also in MegaGargomon's mind started going off and it showed the radar in a green data circle.

"According to my digivice someone else is nearby," stated Gyro.

"Let's hope it's somebody here to help us," cried Terriermon still in pain.

Suddenly, the DigiMaster's hand got hit by Star Shower. Star Shower is Pegasusmon's attack where he hits his foes with a cluster of stars. This injured the DigiMaster just enough for him to loosen his grip on MegaGargomon allowing him to escape.

"So you decided to help after all," said MegaGargomon once he was free of the DigiMaster's grip.

"That's right MegaGargomon. However, quick question. Where is Gyro?" inquired Keith.

"I'll explain later. For now, just help me fight the DigiMaster," replied MegaGargomon.

"Keith how dare you defy me for this rouge player. You got three seconds to leave here and forget all about this before I ban you," ordered the DigiMaster.

"No. I don't who you are or what this place really is, but I can tell that this is definitely no online game now. I don't what you're planning to do with this place but I bet it isn't anything good. So no, I'll stick by MegaGargomon and Gyro's side no matter what," defied Keith.

"How dare you defy me you insolent pest! Consider yourself banned!" exclaimed the DigiMaster angrily as he shot a beam at Keith.

Suddenly, Keith's digivice started going off. Keith grabbed it and it suddenly made some sort of barrier that shielded him from the blast.

"What is going on?" demanded the DigiMaster.

"I'll tell you what's going on. Keith is also one of the Digidestined. That's what going on," replied MegaGargomon

"But that isn't possible. I was the one who gave him his digivice. That means that he should be just one of my pawns," denied the DigiMaster.

"The will of the Digital World is strong and it will always find a way. Most likely whenever you will about to give Keith his digivice and D-Terminal, the Digital World switched it out at the last minute with the real thing so he didn't get one of your fakes. In fact, for all you know you could have given the rest of the Digidestined their digivices," explained MegaGargomon.

"No it can't be. Well if it is true. (He slapped MegaGargomon, Pegasusmon, and Keith into the wall causing MegaGargomon to split back into Gyro and Terriermon and Pegasusmon to split back into Patamon and the Digiegg of Hope which returned to Keith's D-Terminal.) Then eliminating you both should stop the threat of the Digidestined once and for all," said the DigiMaster as he prepared to step on them.

Right before the DigiMaster foot was about to make contact with their weakened bodies, Gyro managed the strength to draw a card, slide it through the card and choked, "Di…gi…mod…i…fy. Tel…e…port act…ivate." Right when the DigiMaster's foot landed, they teleported to the Forest of Irrelevant Road Signs.

"Why didn't I hear the squish of their bones shattering?" wondered the DigiMaster as he raised his foot up.

He was shocked to see that they got away.

"NO! They got away. Well, they haven't heard the last of me. I will get them for this," exclaimed the DigiMaster.
