"This place could really use a good bus system." Joe says as he, Kyle, Tai, Sora, and their Digimon stand by the edge of Infinity Mountain.
Meanwhile Matt, T.K., Izzy, Mimi, and their Digimon had finally arrived to find the others staring out at the ocean.
"Yeah but it looks like we're at the end of the line." Matt says as he and T.K. walk over to their friends with their Digimon.
"We're doomed! Trapped on an island…we'll never get out of here. I knew I wouldn't like camp but would my folks listen? No, I wanted to go to summer school." Joe says on the ground.
Meanwhile a Black Gear flies through the sky.
"Another Black Gear," A humanoid lion like Digimon says with black long pants and a sword attached to the back says and continues walking along Infinity Mountain.
"I sense danger." The lion Digimon says but then a green ogre like Digimon wielding a big club attacks him.
"Leomon, you may be mighty but now you face me. Your kind-hearted leadership is unimpressive." The ogre Digimon says charging at Leomon.
"Ogremon, you truly are the most evil of the bad Digimon. There is no limit to your ruthlessness." Leomon says as he pulls out his sword and clangs it with Ogremon's club causing the two weapons to get knocked out of their hands.
"Grrr…no asked you here. No one wants you here. I strongly suggest you go now! While you still can." Ogremon says.
"The endless attacks of Black Gears which keep dropping from this mountain are turning perfectly peaceful innocent Digimon into monsters and I have come here to make it stop!" Leomon says raising his fists.
"What a joke! You have been warned." Ogremon says and raises his fist as well and shoots out a dark purple energy blast from his fist while Leomon shoots out an orange energy blast from his fist.
As the attacks collided, the surrounding rocks exploding into rubble.
"Both of you stop! Cease this foolishness! I command that the two of you work together for not fight! You will work for me!" A mysterious voice says to them.
"I will never do that." Leomon says.
"Neither will I!" Ogremon said.
"Be silent! For I am Devimon, ultimate ruler of the demon underworld. You must obey my every command." Devimon says.
"Sir, you don't need that joker. I can handle whatever you need done without anyone's assistance." Ogremon says sounding confident in himself.
"I think not. It is the DigiDestined kids we will be fighting." Devimon says.
"The DigiDestined? Where are they?" Leomon asks.
"They're already here on Infinity Mountain. Now go find them and destroy the entire group." Devimon orders.
"Destroy them? I'll destroy you for having threatened the DigiDestined! Fist of the Beast King!" Leomon says sending an energy blast shaped like a lion's head at Devimon but it goes right through him.
"Please Leomon, I'm not asking for your assistance, I'm demanding it. Now prepare for The Touch of Evil!" Devimon says as his arms sprouts out of the ground and stabs Leomon in the back infusing him with dark energy.
"Hahahaha now you will obey my every command!" Devimon says coming up from the ground behind Leomon.
"Yes…I…will…obey." Leomon says under Devimon's control.
Meanwhile with the DigiDestined, Tai was sitting on the edge looking through his telescope.
"Hmm." Tai says taking in the view through his telescope.
"What 'cha doing?" Agumon asks his partner.
"Making a map of the island. That way we can know where we are and where we've already been." Tai says and continues to draw on his piece of paper.
"Yes that works in theory. What? Did you say map or mess?" Izzy asks.
"No question, man. You are the Dude of Doodles." Matt says.
"If you follow that map, it will lead you right to a headache." Sora says commenting about her secret crushes drawing skills.
"Well I can read it just fine and that's all that really matters." Tai shouts defensively.
"We don't need a map to know that we're totally lost. I figured that out a long time ago." Joe says still on the ground.
"I just figured out that these gloves don't really go with this dress." Mimi says about her fashion.
"How sad." Palmon says to her.
"I just figured out that T.K. and I are surrounded by downers." Shiro says making a side-comment but then there was a loud rumbling sound.
"What's that?" Matt asks.
"I don't know but I have a feeling we're going to wait here to find out." Joe says remembering that they are stuck.
"A least it won't be a long wait." Sora says seeing Leomon coming up on the other side.
"Don't worry Leomon is our friend." Patamon says.
"With big teeth." T.K. says hiding behind Kyle's leg.
"He just uses them for smiling." Patamon says.
"He's a just leader and role model for all Digimon." Gabumon says.
"I want the children." Leomon says shocking them all.
"Call me paranoid but I think it's time we run!" Joe says seeing Leomon pull out his sword and just over the gap and chases the DigiDestined back up the mountain.
As they continued to run Tai's map blows out of his pocket.
"My map!" Tai shouts and chases after it.
"Tai forget the map!" Agumon tell him but Tai doesn't listen.
Just then Leomon makes it up to the top and Tai automatically stops.
"Pepper Breath!" Agumon yells sending a fire ball at Leomon and burns Tai's map in the process.
Leomon blocks the attack with his sword and Tai and Agumon run off with the others.
"Sorry about your map." Agumon apologizes.
"That's okay; at least it didn't fall into the hands of the enemy!" Tai says as they continue to run down the Infinity Mountain.
"Don't slow down Joe! He's right behind us!" Matt shouts running behind Joe but then Ogremon appears from behind a rock and blocks their way.
"And just where do you think you're going?" Ogremon asks causing them to stop.
"Well children so good of you to stop by." He say as they stop.
"He look hungry to you?" Patamon asks hiding behind Gabumon.
"We're too small to eat! And I'm full of junk food!" T.K. says.
"Well he's not against a little snack." Gomamon says.
Mimi looks behind them to see Leomon there.
"Make it easier on yourselves, give up now…or else!" Leomon says raising his sword.
"I don't see an exit." Matt says.
"This proves that well executed teamwork is efficient even for bad guys." Izzy comments.
"But Leomon has always been Ogremon's worst enemy. What's happened to him?" Dracomon asks standing in front of Shiro ready to protect him.
"Ready Leomon? Die!" Ogremon yells and jumps at the DigiDestined as well as does Leomon.
Just then the eight Digivices glow brightly.
"Agumon digivolve to…Greymon!" Greymon says.
"Gabumon digivolve to…Garurumon!" Garurumon says.
"Palmon digivolve to…Togemon!" Togemon says.
The three Champion Level Digimon attack Leomon stopping him before he can attack the DigiDestined.
"Gaomon digivolve to…Gaogamon!" Gaogamon says.
"Biyomon digivolve to…Birdramon!" Birdramon says.
"Tentomon digivolve to…Kabuterimon!" Kabuterimon says.
"Gomamon digivolve to…Ikkakumon!" Ikkakumon says.
The four Champion Level Digimon attack Ogremon stopping him before he can attack the DigiDestined as well. Unknown to them, Devimon was up on the rock above watching them carefully.
"They've all digivolved." Devimon says after what he just witnessed.
"Come with me T.K." Matt says taking T.K.'s hand.
"Let him have it Greymon!" Tai says to his Digimon.
"Nova Blast!" Greymon sends a massive fireball at Leomon but he manages to withstand it.
"Needle Spray!" Togemon provides assistance.
"Kyle." Joe says and Kyle nods understanding what Joe was getting at.
"Gaogamon!" Kyle shouts.
"Ikkakumon!" Joe shouts as well.
"Spiral Blow! Harpoon Torpedo!" The two Champion Level Digimon attack Ogremon together.
"Listen up! Everyone all together now!" Tai orders.
'They've learned the secret of teamwork. This group of seven attacking together is quiet dangerous but why hasn't the Patamon digivolved?' Devimon wondered.
"Are you ready?" Tai asks them but then the rocks above suddenly exploded.
"Avalanche! Watch out!" Joe shouts.
"Spiral Blow! Howling Blaster! Meteor Wing! Electro Shocker! Nova Blast!" The five Champion Level Digimons fire their attacks at the incoming rocks causing a huge dust cloud to form.
"Oh wow! Everyone okay?" Tai asks.
"Oh yeah like a day at the beach." Matt says.
"With fun in the sun." Shiro adds.
"I think I need a facial." Mimi said.
Tai looked behind him to see all of their Digimon had dedigivolved.
"Agumon! Speak to me!" Tai shouts running over to his Digimon.
"We aren't wounded Tai, we're all just a little exhausted." Agumon replies.
"Two digivolvetions in one day no wonder." Tai says.
"Poor Biyo." Sora said.
"Come on Gaomon." Kyle says to his Dog Digimon.
"Hey what happened to the bad guys?" Izzy asked.
"They just disappeared." Tai says.
"Are you sure?" Palmon asks.
"Do you think that avalanche knocked them off the cliff?" Gabumon asked as Joe walked over to the edge.
"Hello. Unless they can fly they're goners." Joe says.
"Neither one of them had wings so I'm sure they weren't air worthy." Sora says.
"Nothing is logical here; anything is bound to happen including flying monsters." Joe says.
"For once you might be right Joe." Kyle says.
"Something bothering you?" Agumon asked Tai.
"It's that avalanche. I just can't figure out what set it off." Tai says staring up at the place where the avalanche started.
"Stress accumulates until a crack develops and with access weight the terra firma becomes not so firma." Izzy says using big words, again.
"You think so? It looked to me like something blasted it loose." Tai says as they continue down the mountain.
'They are more powerful than I expected but I shall strike when they are exhausted and destroy them all.' Devimon says and starts snickering.
The sun had once again begun to set and the DigiDestined were walking through the forest.
"I'm intrigued that our Digimon were about to digivolve twice in one day." Izzy says.
"Well it was sure lucky for us that they were able to do it." Shiro says.
"I think the Digimon are growing stronger. I wonder if that's a normal part of their evolution or if we're bringing out something special in them." Sora says.
"A fascinating hypothesis. If only we could test it." Izzy says.
"I think today was too much for them." Matt says.
"Matt's right. Poor Gaomon's dragging his feet." Kyle says seeing his Digimon trudging behind him.
"And Palmon's looking very tired." Mimi says.
"I've been tired before, don't worry." Palmon says.
"Admit Palmon we need to stop and rest." Gaomon says.
"You know be perfectly honest, I think that would be a good idea for all of us." Joe says.
"Rest where? I don't wanna sleep on the ground." Sora says.
"Look! A mansion!" Joe says seeing a building in the distance.
"Or maybe it's a hotel. Come on!" Tai yells and they all run towards it.
"We may have found other life forms. Look at the grounds I mean someone had to have mowed the lawn." Izzy says as they stop just outside the forest.
"What a place I just can't believe my eyes. It's just too good to be true." Tai says.
"I hope they have a hot tub. Just as long as it's not too hot." Joe says.
"You guys can stay here all day if you want but I'm gonna find me a kitchen to raid!" Kyle yells running towards the mansion with Gaomon behind him.
"Shame on you for even thinking of robbing this place Kyle!" Joe says running ahead of him with Gomamon in his arms.
"You're just mad cause I thought of it first, Joe!" Kyle says trying to catch up with him.
"Wait you guys! Don't just go charging in there, it might be dangerous." Tai warns them but they don't listen and kept running.
"Hey was this on your map?" Agumon asks.
"Hmm, somehow I don't think so." Tai says to his Digimon.
"Go ahead Joe open the door." Kyle says.
"Maybe we should knock first." Joe says nervously.
"Joe nobody knocks on the door to a hotel." Kyle says.
"This place should be on your map." Agumon says.
"Agumon if you recall you burned up my map." Tai says.
"Oh right." Agumon says sweat dropping.
"Well here it goes." Joe says and opens the door.
"I don't see a desk clerk. Anybody here?" Joe shouts but receives no reply.
"Looks weird." Tai says walking inside with Sora.
"Feels weird." Izzy added.
"Well it doesn't look or feel weird to me." Joe says walking further inside.
"Perhaps my definition of weird is different from yours." Izzy says back.
"I'm with you." Sora says.
"Think about it, are we safer out in the open woods with no shelter or here in a sturdy building we can defend from attack?" Joe asks them.
"I have to admit you have a point." Matt says as T.K. walks inside and sees something.
"That's beautiful!" T.K. shouts causing Joe to turn around to see the picture of the angel.
"Hmm? Oh yeah." Joe says.
"Look it! It's an angel." T.K. says as he, Kyle, Mimi, and Patamon walk over to the picture.
"What's an angel T.K.?" Patamon asks.
"Something special that watches over you. Kinda like you guys and how mine and Matt's parents found Shiro." T.K. says smiling at his brother who smiles back.
"If this is a spooked out haunted house would there be pictures of angels hanging on the walls? I don't think so." Joe shouts.
"Relax, we just wanna be careful and talk quieter or you'll walk everyone up." Sora says referring to the sleeping Digimon at their feet.
"They're out like a light." Matt says.
"I hope they have a dress shop. I've never worn the same thing two days in a row before." Mimi says as the others walk in and close the door behind them.
"Let's take a nap later." Izzy says.
"Well no grounds. I guess we missed the summer rush." Tai says.
"We keep missing everything." Sora says to him.
"This is one kooky mixed up world. Well let's go." Tai says but then Agumon, Gaomon, and Gabumon smell something.
"Do you smell that?" Gabumon asks.
"I don't smell anything." Matt replies.
"It's the delicious odor of food." Gaomon said.
"Are you sure Gaomon?" Kyle asks his Digimon.
"Very sure and plenty of it." Gaomon says.
"Show us where buddy." Kyle orders in an asking tone.
"It's this way Kyle, follow me." Gaomon says leading them in the direction of the food.
"Wait for us." Sora says running behind Kyle.
"Oh boy." Joe says excitedly.
"Hurry! Hurry!" Biyomon says running next to Agumon.
"Huh? Hey wait for me." Patamon noticing that they all left him behind.
Dracomon lead the DigiDestined to the large dining room where Tai opens the door to find a table piled with food.
"Look at that spread!" Tai shouts.
"Sorry for saying this everybody but this looks like a setup." Matt says.
"Matt is right it could be some sort of trap." Sora says but then they all here the sound of munching and look to see their Digimon eating the food.
"Agumon are you sure that food is safe to eat?" Tai asks his Digimon.
"Everyone is eating buy there table manners is appalling." Mimi says.
"Guess that's because they like it." T.K. says.
"That's it! I can't bear to look any longer! I'm gonna eat it! At least I won't die hungry!" Joe shouts and walks up to the table.
"I'm in." Kyle says as he and T.K. take a seat at the table with Joe.
"On your mark get set…" Joe says and then the three of them start eating like pigs.
"Ah…" Tai says walking up to the others and they all go to the table to eat.
"Lobster matrede is there a table with a view?" Mimi asks sitting next to Izzy.
"Okay if one of us gets sick we all get sick that's teamwork too." Tai says and starts eating with everybody else.
Later that night everyone decided to take a nice relaxing bath.
"Heads up Matt!" Tai shouts and jumps into the water.
"Watch the hair dude!" Matt shouts.
"Is that what that is? I thought some bird made a nest on your head!" Tai jokes making Kyle and T.K. laugh.
"Warm water is perfect for removing soil and epidermis; you know dirt and dead skin?" Izzy says rubbing his head with a towel.
"When my skin gets dirty I just shed it." Tentomon says about himself.
"That would be difficult for me." Izzy tells his Digimon.
"Umm may I join?" Joe asks nervously walking into the washrooms.
"Huh. Hey don't be shy. There aren't any girls here. So far we haven't found any sharks." Matt says.
"No big ones." Tai smirks.
"It looks cold." Joe complains.
"Humans can be so silly." Patamon says.
"Humans aren't the only silly ones. Where's Gabumon?" Tentomon asks.
"He's not silly, just chicken." Gaomon jokes.
"I'll get in but I grantee you won't like it." Joe says as he gets in.
Meanwhile Sora, Biyomon, Mimi, and Palmon were on the other side of the baths and could overhear the boys' conversation.
"Why do they have to be so noisy?" Sora wonders.
"Relax. Forget about them." Mimi tells her.
"I've never been so relaxed in whole life." Gomamon says simply floating in the water on the girls' side causing them to blush really hard.
"Gomamon, you're not supposed to be over here!" Biyomon shouts.
"Get back to the boys side!" Palmon says and uses her vines to fling Gomamon over the wall and into the boys' side of the bath.
"Hey let go! Help!" Gomamon yells.
After their bath everyone was now wearing robes and found a room with eight comfy looking beds.
"Haha only thing better is bunk beds!" T.K. says as he and Patamon hop onto one of the beds.
"Boy this is great. Last time I had a bed this soft I was dreaming." Izzy says feeling the mattress.
"Oh how I've missed sleeping on soft silky sheets." Mimi says already in her bed with Palmon next to Sora's.
"I'll tell you what I don't miss, I don't miss hiking to the blazing hot dessert and another thing I really don't miss is starving in the jungle. Oh we are a long way from home. Sorry." Joe says sitting in his bed with Gomamon next to Tai with Agumon who was next to Sora with Biyomon and across from him was Kyle with Gaomon who was next to T.K. with Patamon who was next to Matt with Gabumon who was next to Izzy with Tentomon.
"It's okay Joe. We all miss home and I'm sure we're all wondering if we'll ever get back there." Tai says.
"I bet our disappearance caused a big fuss at school and all over town but we've been gone so long everybody's probably given up looking for us by now." Matt says.
"Mom and dad wouldn't stop." T.K. says.
"I'm home sick. Aren't you?" Mimi asks Sora.
"We'll find our way back. Don't worry Mimi." Sora tells her.
"Let's just go to sleep and try to have nice dreams." Mimi says and everyone then says goodnight to each other.
Meanwhile out in the hallway at the picture of the angel.
'It was so easy to deceive them. Even the DigiDestined appear to have childish and simple minds.' Devimon says in his mind as he comes out of the picture and spreads his wings making Leomon and Ogremon appear.
"Ready?" He asks.
"What a joy to be rid of the DigiDestined at last." Ogremon says.
"And what about you, Leomon?" Devimon asks.
"I cannot disobey your orders." Leomon says still under Devimon's control.
Devimon grins evilly but then hears someone coming from upstairs.
"I can go to the bathroom by myself." Tai says to Agumon.
"I don't mind keeping you company Tai. It's dark and scary here." Agumon tells him,
"For your information I happen to like the dark. Stop treating me like a kid." Tai says and they head to the bathroom.
"I should have known it was you who was afraid to go to the bathroom by yourself." Tai says standing outside the stall Agumon was in.
"Oh Tai don't be upset with me. I'm not afraid. I didn't really have to go. I just came along because I have to protect you." Agumon says.
"Then what are you doing in there?" Tai asks.
"I don't even want to talk about it, Tai." Agumon says.
Unknown to them Ogremon was in the stall next to Agumon's.
"I don't know if that ugly green guy scared you but he really scared me. Who knows where he is now." Agumon says as he comes out of the stall but then Ogremon burst through the door of his stall.
"Now I am going to destroy you both." Ogremon says to them causing them to run out of the bathroom and to the others.
"Wake up everybody! Ogremon's here!" Tai shouts but then sees something in his and Agumon's way.
"I must obey. Destroy them…the children." Leomon says.
"Why do you hate me?" Tai asks.
"He hates you because I commanded him to hate you." A voice says. Tai looks to his right to see Devimon standing on the railing.
"Get ready Tai, now the real trouble starts." Agumon says.
"Agumon who is that?" Tai asks.
"That's Devimon." Agumon tells him.
"He looks bad." Tai says.
"He is. This is the guy who invented the nightmare." Agumon says.
"I have no more use for this imaginary building." Devimon said and then the whole mansion started to crumble away.
Matt slowly opens his eyes to find that the room they were in was no longer a room.
"Wake up everybody something's wrong!" Matt yells causing everyone to wake up.
"What happened?" Sora asks as she and Mimi cover themselves up. Devimon then raised his hand causing black and red energy to erupt from it.
"Because together you are strong. I will use my Touch of Evil to scatter you throughout the Digi-World." Devimon says as the bed the other DigiDestined were in float up into the air. "I hope this is a bad dream." Tai says watching.
"Tai! I'm too weak to walk even after all that food I've eaten." Agumon says confusing Tai.
"The food, the bath, the building none of it was real. I created all of it in your imagination." Devimon says.
"Listen you, if you don't bring back my friends you're going to be in really big trouble." Tai shouts.
"That's amusing. My concerns are much more important than your friends." Devimon says.
"That's my only concern. You bring them back now!" Tai demands.
"Bring them back. You insolent brat! You dare to order me? Allow me to show you who's really in control here!" Devimon says and then the whole island starts to shake.
"You see I have discovered the secret of the Black Gears from below. I call them forth to do my biding." Devimon says and then the whole island starts to split apart.
"You and your friends happened upon this tiny island which is just one of the fragments of your world scattered across the ocean. You pretend you are strangers who know nothing of this world but I am aware you are the DigiDestined who are sent to rescue this world from my domination." Devimon says to Tai.
"You got us all wrong. We were just some kids at summer camp who somehow got sucked into your world." Tai tells him.
"Your little act no longer amuses me. It's time to bring an end to the DigiDestined." Devimon says.
"I will destroy them. Everyone." Leomon says. Agumon tries to attack Leomon but ends the other way around.
"Now the boy." Leomon says and then he pins Tai against the wall.
"Yes then the others. One by one. Once the irritating children are out of the way nothing will be able to stop me. Now do it Leomon." Devimon orders.
"As you command." Leomon says pulling out his sword.
"No! Help!" Tai screams.
"Don't waste your breath." Leomon tells him but then Tai's bed crashes a few feet away from them and his Digivice rolls out of it and onto Leomon's feet and starts glowing when it touches.
"What are you waiting for Leomon? Do it!" Devimon orders but then the Black Gear inside Leomon gets driven out.
"The Black Gear, the light drove it out. Devimon no longer has control over Leomon." Agumon says as the light dies down.
"I think you're right. How do you feel Leomon?" Tai asks.
"I am free of Devimon's powers." Leomon says as Tai picks up his Digivice.
"Leomon do you know what this thing is?" Tai asks.
"I can tell you that for me it is proof that you are one of the DigiDestined. The Digivices are powerless in the hands of anyone else." Leomon tells Tai.
"That's right and you are no match for me!" Devimon says and makes the floating beds fall to the ground.
"Do not harm them!" Leomon yells stop Devimon.
"Leomon is helping us. We're going to be fine." Tentomon says as everyone gets scattered to different parts of the once whole island.
"This isn't over Leomon or have you forgotten your old friend?" Devimon says.
"Ogremon!" Leomon shouts.
"Here Leomon!" Ogremon says and attacks him.
"Your soft heart is your weakness which is why we will never join as allies." Ogremon says.
"You may defeat me but the DigiDestined will be out of your reach." Leomon says hinting to Tai what he was about to do.
"No." Tai says.
"Yes! Go now!" Leomon says and slams his sword into the ground causing it to crake sending Tai and Agumon onto a float piece of the island that carries them away.
"Why?" Tai asks.
"You're our last hope. Without you my world doesn't have a chance for survival. My life is insignificant." Leomon says and attack Ogremon knocking him out cold.
"You can escape too." Tai tells him.
"I must prevent Devimon from perusing you!" Leomon shouts to him.
"Be careful!" Tai tells him.
"Feel the Touch of Evil!" Devimon shouts taking control of Leomon, again.
"Leomon!" Tai screams at the lost of his new friend.
The next morning all the pieces of the island had stopped moving fast and were now just drifting.
"The DigiDestined survived our first encounter but it won't be the last. I can promise them that. They must not interfere with my plans they must be destroyed. Will you do this for me Leomon?" Devimon asks.
"Your every order, I shall obey." Leomon says.
