"We just can't!" Izzy began to freak out, pulling at his hair, "With the combined abilities of all our foes at its command, he's the strongest enemy we've ever faced! Rookie level digimon won't be able to defeat him, no matter how hard they try!"

"That can't be! There's gotta be a way!" exclaimed Tai.

"Will, how did the Chosen Children before us defeat their enemy?" Matt asked me. I shook my head. I knew they fought him, but how they sealed him away…

I didn't know.

Apocalymon began to chant. His eyes glowed a blood red.

...We began to turn into data, simple ones and zeroes.

"This is-" Matt gasped out.

"Oh no!" Izzy exclaimed, "Our bodies are being broken apart and turned into electronic data!"

"What?!" Tai exclaimed.

"Then what is going-" Biyomon began.

"To happen-" Tentomon said.

"To us?!" finished Gomamon.

The transition to data wasn't painful, but it was… terrifying.

We all woke up in a world of white, fully ones and zeroes. We all had survived it.

I listened as everyone spoke about our new location.

Everyone wondered if everything was done. If we had lost. But…

"Don't get discouraged!" Agumon exclaimed.

"Agumon…" Tai mumbled.

"I'll fight to the bitter end!" Gabumon exclaimed, "So don't lose hope!"

"That's right!" Biyomon exclaimed, "There were many times when we thought it was all over. We always stuck together and fought through it!"

"Yes, but we've been broken down into data!" Sora said, "Forget about our enemy, we don't even know if we'll be human again!"

"Even if we can go back to being human, we can't evolve without our crests!" Joe yelled.

"This has never happened before." Izzy said, "How does one deal with having one's data dissolve? No one knows!"

"Then tell me, Izzy-han, did you always know how to win the battles you've faced?"

"That's right!" Gabumon exclaimed, "There's always a lot of firsts in an adventure!"

"We never knew what to do during those other times!" Gomamon said.

"You're right!" Joe exclaimed, "All those times… I didn't know anything about this Digital World… There was always one thing after another that made my heart stop!"

"But because of you and everyone else, we were able to squeeze through it together!" Gomamon exclaimed.

"Yeah. At first, all I could think about was getting out of here as fast as I could." Joe said, "But ever since I got here, I've learned things that I could never have through textbooks."

I'll become a cheerful butterfly that rides on the glittering wind

"There were things that I didn't like and things that made me cry, but…" Mimi began.

And come see you right now.

"Are you glad we became friends?" Palmon asked. Mimi nodded.

"Yeah. I feel like I've become stronger since I met all of you."

It's best to forget the unnecessary things.

There's no time left to be fooling around

"Until I met you, TK, I thought I didn't need to evolve…" Patamon said

I wonder, wow, wow, what can I do to reach these skies?

"Me too. Because I met you, Patamon, I think I understand how important it is to fight." TK said.

But, wow, wow, I don't even know my plans for tomorrow.

"You've always been so sweet to me, Sora." Biyomon said.

"Biyomon." Sora smiled.

"That part of you is what everyone loves about you."

In this world of nothingness that arises out of an infinite dream

"Izzy-han, I've learned a lot by being with you." Tentomon said, "Well, there was a few times I felt hurt because you didn't look up from your laptop."

It seems as if our beloved desires will lose.

"Tentomon." Izzy smiled.

But even with these unreliable wings, full of images that tend to stay

"But that's still another part of you that I like." Tentomon said.

I'm sure we can fly

"Yamato." Gabumon started.

"You don't have to say anything. I already know." Matt stopped him.

"Hey, Tai! When we're together, we're invincible, right?" Agumon cheered. Tai grinned.

"You got it!" he exclaimed.

"We can't let ourselves be defeated here." Gatomon said, "If we do, then what was the point of my search for Kari, all this time?"

"Gatomon." Kari smiled.

"I've been waiting so long for the day when I could meet you and protect you, Kari." Gatomon said.

"I'm not one of you… I'm not a Chosen like all of you." Ryo said, clutching onto his Monodramon, "But that doesn't mean I won't fight!"

"For so long, I was insufferable." Sam started, "But now, I have people I want to protect that isn't just myself and Ken. I have friends other than Ryo. I'll protect everyone!"

"I made a promise… My kindness isn't my weakness." Ken said, "I'll be gentle and strong! I'll fight together!"

"Ken-chan…" Wormmon, Ken's little silkworm-like partner, smiled at him with sparkling eyes.

"I was on the wrong side for so long." I said, "But now I'm on the right one. I'm the Chosen of Willpower… I won't let us lose this battle!"

"We're all with you." BlackGatomon told me. The rest of my digimon nodded towards me.

"If I hadn't met Gatomon…" Kari began.

"If I hadn't come to the Digital World…" Joe said.
"If I hadn't gone on an adventure with everyone else…!" Mimi exclaimed.

"We wouldn't be who we are today!" Izzy yelled out.

"You're right! Because our Digimon were always with us..." Matt said.

"Because our friends were with us." TK smiled.

"Because we understood the importance of helping each other out." Sora said.

"Because we learned from each other." Sam said.

"No matter what, we believed in each other." Ryo claimed.

"Because you all knew how to forgive." I said.

"We're strong enough to win!" Ken exclaimed.

"We were able to stay true to ourselves!" exclaimed Tai.

At that moment, I knew that everyone in the whole world was watching us.

"That's right! We can't let things end here!" Tai exclaimed.

"We can't let our adventure go to waste!" Sora exclaimed.

"For our encounter with the digimon and the friendships we've made…" Matt said.

"And for the sake of those we love, who are waiting for us back on Earth..." Izzy said.

"We…" Mimi started.

"Us…" Matt added.

"All of us." TK said.

"We won't look back anymore!" Joe exclaimed.

"We won't let the light within our hearts die out!" Kari exclaimed.

The crests began to glow over our hearts, in different colors pertaining to them.

"This is…" TK gasped.

"Your Crests! The symbols that were carved onto your crests are actually the symbols of your hearts!" exclaimed Agumon.

"Our hearts?" Tai asked.

"Just like the knowledge inside me… and Joe's reliable personality!" Izzy exclaimed, "If we continue to act upon the special qualities of our hearts, then our crests are unnecessary!"

"No, that's wrong." Matt said, "It wasn't the friendship within my heart that suddenly started glowing! All your friendship gathered inside me, and that's what caused my Crest of Friendship to glow!"

"One Crest is for everyone, and everyone's Crest is for one!" exclaimed Tai.

"Then the light inside me… Is for everyone!" Kari exclaimed. Her Crest glowed brighter.

"We're not gonna let you have your way!" Tai exclaimed.
