Soon after riding across the lake Tai, Ash, Tyson, Joe, and Mimi reach the other side. "And thus your ride on Lapras Ferry lines has come to end please exit to your left and we hoped you enjoyed your ride." Ash joked as Mimi climbed off.

"Thanks for the ride Lapras.",she thanked the transportation Pokémon. Lapras smiles as she goes back into her Pokeball.

"Hey guys!" They look over the hill to see Matt, T.K, and Izzy heading towards them.

"Hey the others!",Pikachu smiles.

T.K runs over. "Ash you're back!"

"Hey T.K!" Ash smiles as he ruffles his hair.

"Good to see you guys again. My you shrunk.",Palmon said to Motimon and Tsunomon.

"Don't rub it in!",they said and turned in a huff.

Izzy then looked at Tyson. "And who might this be?"

"I'm Tyson and this is Pichu." He said introducing himself.

"Tyson's my new little brother." Ash smiled.

"Brother?",the said shocked.

"It's a long story." Ash and Tyson said at the same time.

"Well you guys will have to tell us all about it." Matt said.

"You bet, by the way you guys know where Sora and Biyomon are?" Ash asks.

"We thought you guys might've seen her." Matt said.

"That's weird. It's not like her to just disappear now all of a sudden.",Tai frowned.

"Actually I might of saw Sora.",Mimi said getting everyone's attention.

"Really? Where?"

"Back at the Geckomon castle but I must've been dreaming.",she said remembering.

"Maybe she just didn't want to or maybe she can't.", Matt said suddenly his Digivice starts to beep indicating she was nearby.

"Sounds like she's somewhere around here.",Tai looked at his.

"Come on. The signals this way!",Izzy said. And the group went on their way. As they looked for her the sun started to go down.

"Sora!" Tai yells

"Sora where are you!" Izzy yells

"Why don't we find a place to rest for the night? My legs are hurting along with every other part of me." Joe complained

"I can't move another inch." Mimi said dropping to her knees.

Ash looked at Matt. "You sure that's her signal?",he asks.

The blonde nodded. "Yeah but I don't know we can't find her."

Suddenly Patamon heard something. "What's wrong?" T.K asks

"Something's coming!" Patamon said as the noise gets louder. Suddenly a giant bee like Digimon appears out of the trees and flies toward them.

They quickly ducked. Ash takes out his Pokedex. "Flymon an insect Digimon his special attack Deadly Sting sprays Poison Stingers."

"Poisonus stingers?!" Eevee said scared.

"Everyone don't let it sting you!" Pikachu yells.

"Tsunomon Digivolve to Gabumon!"

"Pepper Breath!"

"Blue Blaster!"

"Marching Fishes!"

"Poison Ivy!"

The four Digimon fire their attacks but Flymon is too fast for them and dodges with ease.

"Deadly Sting!",He launched them at Mimi and Palmon and they dodged it quickly.

"Noctowl Psychic!" Ash throws out Noctowl who stops Flymon in midair when suddenly Birdramon appears.

"It's Birdramon!" Motimon said.

"Meteor Wing!" Birdramon burns the trapped Flymon alive causing it to crash to the ground.

"If Birdramon is here so is Sora!" Tai said.

"Noctowl follow Birdramon!" Ash yells. Noctowl nodded and flew after the mega bird. Ash ran ahead with Tai, Matt, Tyson, and T.K right behind them.


Meanwhile Sora was running through the forest trying lose them when Ash, Pikachu, Noctowl and Eevee appeared blocking her from all sides.

"Sora, why are you running?",he asks her. She turns to try and run away when Tai, Matt, Izzt, Tyson and T.K arrive.

"Sora do you not like us anymore?" T.K asks.

"No it's not that." Sora said when Biyomon lands in front of them.

"Sora why don't you tell them." Biyomon suggests.

She nodded and explained. "It happened after Ash and Tai disappeared. I left to find them, but then I saw some strange looking Digimon talking to someone through I think it was a portal."

"So did you hear what he was saying?" T.K asks.

"Yeah he was talking about our crests." Sora said.

"Our crests?" Tai asks.

She nodded. "They all have a different meaning. Tai you have the crest of Courage. Matt has the crest of Friendship. T.K has the crest of Hope, Izzy the crest of Knowledge, Joe the crest of Reliability, Mimi the crest of Sincerity, Ash has the Crest of Aura and mine is...the crest of Love."
Tai smiles. "The crest of Love that's perfect for you Sora."

"No it's not! It's like me at all!",She snapped at him.

"But Sora it is like you you're always thinking of everyone else." Tai said

"Not I'm not! I don't care about anyone! The truth is you don't know the first thing about me so back off!", Sora yelled shocking everyone.

"S-Sora..this isn't you. Why are you acting like this?",Ash said.

"I'm sorry Ash it's just that my crest won't glow. I don't have any love." Sora said looking at her crest.

"Don't have any love?",Tk asks. "But don't you love us?"

"This don't make any sense.",Pikachu said.

"I don't get why do girls have to get so emotional when it comes to love?" Tai asks.

"Tai shut up." Tyson said.

"What I was just trying to be funny." Tai said

"The Digimon thought I was funny too he said I would never make the crest glow." Sora sulked.

Ash and Pikachu remembered something. "Did that Digimon had wings and looked like a small bat?"

"Yeah why do you ask?"

"Sora, DemiDevimon is a liar he's been messing with all of us from the beginning he's just messing with you." Pikachu said.

Sora shook her head. "No..what he said is true.",she tells them about when she was on the soccer team and her mom wouldn't let her go and said all he mom cared about were their reputation as flower arrangers. "My mom said I should give up Soccer and work in the family business, that's all she ever cares about. She doesn't understand that's why he said I grew up without knowing what love is!" Sora stands up about to throw her crest when Ash runs over and grabs her arm.

"Sora don't!" Ash yells.

"Ash let go of me!" Sora yells.

"No I'm won't! Even if this is true or not, you shouldn't believe one word from that little devil told you!",Ash said. Once he said that Sora then burst into tears and cried.

"Ash you made her cry." Tai said.

"Just let her." Matt said.

T.K walks over. "Sora thank you."

"Th-thank you?",she looks at him though still had tears.

Tk nodded. "When we were about to eat those mushrooms you stopped us from erasing our memories.",he said.

"We knew DemiDevimon was up to no good so we secretly followed him, we were even at the restaurant where you were working Matt." Biyomon said

"I had no idea." Matt said shocked.

"You two didn't have to hide." Tai said

"Sora needed to be alone for awhile but she didn't want to be away from you all." Biyomon explains.

"Sora thank you for watching over all of us, but please don't leave I don't like when we're all separated." T.K said.

"T.K's right Sor. It wouldn't be the same here without you.",Ash said.

Sora whips her tears. "I'm so so sorry." Then Joe, Izzy, Mimi, Palmon, Gomamon, and Tentomon run over. "Hey guys!"

"What took you so long?" Tai asks.

"Sorry but Joe fell in the river." Mimi said.

"Well you were the one who was tired, hungry and had to sit down every 5 minutes." Joe said.

Sora smiles. She missed this. She saw Ash calming them down.

Little did they knew, DemiDevimon was watching them. "They're all together huh? Better tell Myotismon." He grins.


That night they were all resting by the fire when DemiDevimon appears. "Already asleep huh?" He pulls out a needle. "Myotismon will be so proud of my work maybe I'll get a promotion. Demi Dart!" Devimon throws the needle but just as it was about to hit Sora it stops in midair. "What the?!" He looks up to the trees to see Noctowl was using Psychic. "You?!"

"I saw you coming hours ago so Ash kept me on guard duty in case you tried anything. Now let's see how you like." Noctowl turns the needle around and it strikes DemiDevimon in the butt causing him to scream in pain.

That scream made everyone get up and saw DemiDevimon. "Ash was right!",Tk said.

Suddenly as a dark cloud covers the moon a chariot flies over them and drops a coffin revealing a vampire like Digimon.

"What is that?" Tai asks.

"Digi Destined your journey ends here." It said.

"That's him! He's the thing I saw talking with DemiDevimon!" Sora points.

"He's no thing he Myotismon!" DemiDevimon said

"Myotismon?" Ash said and pointed his Pokedex at him. "Myotismon a ghost Digimon. Myotismon cannot demonstrate its powers outside of the night, and its power is cut in half during the daytime."

"Hey get that thing fixed! It's Lord Myotismon!",DemiDevimon said.

Myotismon laughs silently. "Your journey has come to an end. Grisly Wing!" Myotimon said as bats appeared

"Pepper Breath!" Agumon yells

"Blue Blaster!" Gabumon yells

"Air Slash!" Noctowl yells

"Shadow Ball!" Eevee yells

"Thunderbolt!" Pikachu and Pichu yell

Many of the attacks called off the bats. "It's take more than some dumb bats to kill us!",Ash said.

"Hmm..so you are the boy with those non-Digimon." Myotismon said.

"That's right and I'm not going to let you win." Ash said as his eyes glowed.

"Motimon Digivolve to Tentomon!"

"Palmon Digivolve to Togemon!"

"Gomamon Digivolve to Ikkakumon!"

"Guys wait!" Ash yelled but all the Digimon charged.

"Super shocker!",Tentomon lets out electricity.

"Needle Spray!",Togemon released her needles.

"Harpoon Torpedo!", Ikkakumon fires torpedoes. All attacks hit Myotismon, causing an explosion. Myotismon appeared from the dust, not even a scratch on him.

"Pathetic, you're moves aren't even strong enough to damage me! Crimson Lighting!",He created a glowing red whips and slashed all the Digimon. Making them fall to the ground.

"He's so strong." Tai said in shock.

"I gotta help them I'm the only one left!" Ash turns around to see Sora holding back Biyomon from going to battle.

"You can't Biyomon, you'll end up like them!"

"Sora why can't you understand?!" Biyomon yells causing Sora to pause in shock.'J-just like my mom..she was thinking of..me first.' Sora thought.

"Let her Sora." She heard Ash. "I'll help her."

"What are you going to do?" Sora asks.

Ash takes a deep breath. "Go Heracross!" The stage beetle appeared. "Heracross Mega Evolve!" Ash yells as a light shines on Heracross.

They saw Heracross's shape change and then the light exploded. Mega Heracross had thin orange markings now rim its head, hands, and shoulders, A half-circle, orange marking over its eyes. It now has a long, pointed nose that curves slightly upward. Its back now lacks wings and is completely yellow. The horn on its head has grown into a large, simple spike with two smaller spikes on the front.

Everyone gasps. "What just happened?" Tyson said surprised.

"Now that's backup." Matt said

Sora stands up. "Biyomon...go get him."

"Biyomon Digivolve to Birdramon!"

"Meteor Wing!"

"Pin Missile!"

"Crimson Lightning!" Myotismon breaks through Meteor Wing, but Heracross flies in and blasts Myotismon with a barrage of needles causing him to scream in pain.

"Nice! Heracross!",She said to him.

Sora was in awe. "Whoa that was...amazing."

Ash smiles. "I've got your back Sora."

Sora but her hand to heart and was touched by his actions.

"You got nothing to fear. We're all gonna get through this.",he said reassuring her.

Sora smiles. "Ash how do you know?"

"Cause when I first saw my dad after 10 years he showed me that parents have different ways of showing us they love us but he helped me through it and I'll help you through it." Ash smiled.

A few tears come down her eyes as her crest glows. And so did Birdramon.

"Birdramon digivolve to...Garudamon!", they all were amazed by Bidramon's newest evolution.

Myotismon is blinded by the light emitting from Garudamon. "What is that light?!"

Garudamon picks up Sora in her hands. "Sora your love I feel so much of it."

Sora teared up. "Biyomon..you look amazing."

Ash's Pokedex dinged. "Garudamon, the Ultimate Digimon. She is the guardian deity of justice and order who loves the natural environment. Her special move is Wing Blade."

Ash smiled. 'I knew you had it in you Sora.',he thought.

Myotismon growled. "The crest of love had to activate right when I was about to claim victory!"

Garudamon glares at Myotismon. "I will protect Sora, Wing Blade!",a red bird like aura appeared and came towards Myotismon.

"Mega Heracross, Pin Missle! Pikachu, Thunderbolt and Noctowl, Pyschic!",Ash yells.

The four attacks combined and slam into Myotismon sending him crashing into the ground.

"Everyone get on!" Garudamon picks everyone up as Ash returned his Pokemon as they flew away into the distance. Soon they were all resting by a lake.

"Seeing Biyomon act like me made me realize my Mom loved me all along." Sora smiles.

"I told you that stupid bat was just messing with you." Ash smiled.

"And it was your love that helped me to Digivolve Sora." Yokomon said.

She smiles. "You're right."

Ash puts a hand on her shoulder. "I knew you had it in you."

Sora blushes. "Thanks Ash you were pretty amazing yourself I can't thanks you enough." She leans in and pecks him on the cheek causing him to turn red.

"Woah did Sora just..?!",Tentomon and Patamon exclaimed.

"Wow Ash, I didn't knew you were a ladies man.",Matt chuckles.

Mimi growls as she grinds her teeth in anger. 'I know she did NOT just do that!',she yelled in her mind.

"Uh..thanks Sora.",he said rubbing the back of his nervously.

Suddenly a dark cloud covered the sky and they heard a maniacal laughter. "That voice!" Sora panicked as they looked up.

"Myotismon!"

"Foolish DigiDestined with only the seven of you you cannot stop my evil plans and as for you Holder of the crest of Aura prepare yourself I will not send any of my minions after you because I will take your life by myself!" Myotismon vowed.

Ash glares at the sky and his eyes glowed blue. "Bring it Myotismon."
