Overcoming Darkness. The Final Battle Begins.

Previously on "When Destinies Collide"… Joe and his group found Primary Village, and Elecmon. The small digimon joined the rag-tag team of Digimon friends that they gathered. Knowing that Reye and Serena would be safe for the time being, Joe and Amy set off on their own path, hopefully they would find Matt along the way. Meanwhile Tai and his group made it to the top of Spiral Mountain, and they crossed paths with LadyDevimon. Then, Piedmon made his debut. Can the DigiDestined regroup in time to defeate the final Dark Master? Find out in this chapter of, "When Destinies Collide"…


Ikkakumon and Walrainmon swam up to shore and, once their human partners were on solid ground, reverted back to Rookie level. The group of four walked the shore in search of Matt. But they were having no such luck.

"We've looked everywhere there is to look." Amy sighed.

"And we still haven't found Matt." Joe added.

"Maybe your harmonica playing is keeping him in hiding." Gomamon joked.

Joe chuckled, looking at Matt's harmonica he held, "Everyone's a critic these days."

"Hey Joe!" Amy called. "Over here!"

The teen boy and his digimon walked up to the ledge Amy was and he saw a swan shaped boat.

"He must be close by then." Sealmon suggested.

"But we don't know when he left it." Joe reminded. "I say we keep looking."

"Come on this is the first clue we've seen in a long time." Gomamon whined. "And I would love to see a little get up in the mood."

"I guess I'm still pessimistic." Joe sighed. "Because when we found Matt's harmonica it led us nowhere. But you could be right, he must be around here somewhere."

"That's the spirit Joe." Amy cheered.

"You've become a real man lately." Gomamon added.

Joe knelt down so he was eye level with his digimon, "Oh so you're saying I wasn't a real man before is that it?" he questioned. Joe began to tickle his Rookie partner, "Are you still not man enough to laugh when I tickle you huh?"

Amy and Sealmon laughed. The foursome continued to search for their friend.


On the top of Spiral Mountain, Anubismon and WarGreymon had begun the fight with Piedmon. The three Mega digimon clashed, but so far they were even in skill.

WarGreymon and Anubismon combined their brute force and slammed Piedmon into the side of rock.

"Did that do it?" Mina asked.

Piedmon chuckled and brushed the dust off his shoulders. "Thanks for the sparing match, but now I'm ready for the real fight."

The DigiDestined present held in their anger for the time.

"Let me tell you all a little story." Piedmon said. "Once upon a time there was a group of DigiDestined, then Piedmon destroyed them all. The end."

"No offense to your storytelling, but I would like it better if the ending was different." Izzy criticized.

"It will be." WarGreymon grunted.

"We'll make sure of it." Anubismon added.

"We can't win this fight unless we're all together!" Kari exclaimed.

Catherine looked back at the black sky, "Where are you guys?" she thought.

"Where is everyone?" Tai grunted.


Zhuqiaomon flew above the Digital World, Rini, T.K, Patamon, Super Harmony, and Tigermon on her back. Super Harmony held out her digivice, hoping to get a signal. But so far, she had no luck.

"How much longer?" Patamon whined. "I'm getting airsick."

"The digivice isn't responding." Super Harmony informed.

"But we will find my brother right?" T.K asked. "And the others?"

Super Harmony held her digivice in her gloved hand. "Matt and the others could be anywhere in the Digital World. We may never find them in time." she thought. Piper could feel the tears coming out. She tried her best to hold them back. "The only thing I can say is…Don't worry, we'll find them T.K" Piper put on a smile, so she could reassure the two smaller DigiDestined.

She looked out ahead and saw how dark the Digital World had become. "We have to find them. If we don't come together as a team, we'll never defeate Piedmon." Piper's eyes were filled with worry.


The fight with Piedmon was still going on. And the two chosen Mega digimon weren't doing so good. They attacked head on and ended up crashing into the side of rocks.

"Piedmon is the toughest Dark Master." Nalamon noted.

"We should all fight." Super Jupiter voted.

"No." Tai ordered.

"Why not?" Kari asked.

"The digimon are still too tired from the fight with LadyDevimon." Mina answered. "Let them rest. Then once Piper returns with the others, we can take out Piedmon in full strength."

"I hope they get here soon." Anubismon said.


Matt and Gabumon were walking in a dark cave, completely lost.

"Matt?" Gabumon asked.

"Yeah Gabumon?" Matt answered.

"I think we've been in this cave a little to long." replied the digimon. "I still don't know what you mean by you're trying to find yourself but I would appreciate it if you didn't look in here. Can we hurry up?"

"Sure, whatever." Matt sighed. He remembered when T.K had told everyone that he could take care of himself, back when Puppetmon had kidnapped him and Catherine.

"I've been living a lie." Matt said.

"You're not a real blonde?" Gabumon asked.

Matt sighed. "I used to believe that I had one purpose in life, to protect my little brother." he admitted. "I used to think he needed me, but really I was the one who needed him. Sure it made me feel good to think I was the only one there for him, but in reality, Piper and everyone else was there for him as well."

"Let's talk about this outside." Gabumon voted. "There's something strange in the air."

"That's why Tai made me so mad, I thought he was trying to take T.K away from me. He acted like a better big brother than I ever was." Matt continued down the cave path.

Gabumon was right on his heels. "But you don't have to act. You are TK's brother."

Matt stopped and slumped down the side of the cave wall. "Tai may be real bossy and hard headed sometimes, but he never treated T.K like a child. Which is how I've always treated him. But really, I'm the one who's childish." Matt wrapped his hands around his knees and buried his face in his arms.

A dark mist began to creep up behind Gabumon. And soon it surrounded Matt.

"I can never go back to being their friend." Matt said, his blue eyes had turned to a darker shaded.

"You have to!" Gabumon exclaimed. "If all of you don't get back together then the Digital World will be destroyed forever!"

"They don't need me." Matt said to his partner.

"Come to your senses Matt!" Gabumon yelled.

"Go away." Matt sighed. "I wanna be alone." He continued to fall deeper into the darkness of self pity.

Gabumon's red eyes filled with tears. "Forgive me." he sighed. The wolf/lizard digimon bit down on Matt's leg.

"Ow!" Matt exclaimed, jumping up. "What was that for?"

"Listen Matt, you have got to stop comparing yourself to Tai." Gabumon spoke. "It's like ice cream: he's vanilla, and you're rocky road. Sure he may act like an older brother to T.K but he can never break the bond that you two brothers share." tears were spilling down Gabumon's face. "Besides, don't you think it would break my heart if your weren't here? I didn't spend my whole life waiting for you just so you can wallow in self pity."

"Gabumon." Matt sighed.

"But if you really want to be left alone then I'll respect your wishes and disappear. But only if that's what you really want me to do." Gabumon added.

"No, I don't want you to go." Matt responded. "Sorry, I never meant to hurt you." Matt's hands clenched into fists. "I've never let anyone get close to me before, not since my family split up. I figured if my family didn't want me, then I would just keep to myself. And I swore I would never let anyone see me cry. But really, all I wanted to do was cry."

"Then cry." Gabumon said. "Let it out."

Matt tried to stifle his tears. "I hate being alone."

"I know just how you feel." Gabumon said. "I wandered around the Digital World without a lot of friends, but when I found you I knew I would never be lonely again." the digimon wrapped his arms around Matt and let out his tears too.

Matt smiled at his digimon. "Yeah. After all you're the reason I came to the Digital World. And here I am lost in this dark cave and you're still right by my side. That's the sign of a true friend. Now I realize I have friends, that includes T.K and my parents." "It also includes Piper and all the others. And as long as I have Gabumon, I'll never be alone anymore."

The dark mist the surrounded Matt released its hold. It turned into a small vortex, hovering above Matt and Gabumon.

"What is that?" Matt asked.

"It's been around you this whole time." Gabumon answered. "You mean you haven't noticed it until now?"

"Not at all." Matt replied. "It's pitch black, like the feeling I had in my heart just a minute ago. I've been caring it around with me this whole time, now it's ready to swallow me whole."

"Like Jonah and the Whale?" Gabumon questioned.

"But it can't hurt me because I'm not alone anymore." Matt said. He knelt down to eye level with Gabumon. "I want to thank you Gabumon, for always being there for me." the two partners embraced each other in a hug. "Let's make a pact right now. Gabumon and Matt, friends for life."

The dark vortex disappeared and Matt stood up. "Do we have a deal?" he shook Gabumon's paws. "A handshake makes it official."

"Will a paw shake do?" Gabumon asked, referring to his paws.

"And I promise not to complain anymore." Matt added.

"Now don't start that, if you need to say something, say it. Don't bottle everything up." Gabumon told him.

"Okay I'll complain every once in a while but only to you." Matt rephrased.

Both friends chuckled and soon they found themselves out of the cave and somewhere else.

"Uh, correct me if I'm wrong on this one, Matt, but weren't we just in a big, dark cave a minute ago?" Gabumon asked.

"That's right. And we were completely lost." Matt answered.


"Hey!" Sealmon exclaimed. "Look who I found!"

Amy, Joe, and Gomamon rushed to the end of the path and saw what Sealmon was so excited about. The small digimon had found Matt and Gabumon.

"Matt!" Joe called. The group rushed down and rejoined up with their friend.

"Joe. Amy." Matt breathed. He was very excited to see his friends.

Joe turned to Gomamon. "I told ya. Who's the man now?" he turned back to Matt. "I said to myself, 'Joe if you stick to your own path sooner or later you should bump into Matt.' I'm just glad it happened before I retired."

"It's good to see you guys." Matt said.

Amy smiled and pulled out the harmonica. "Here, we found it at Primary Village." she handed Matt his harmonica.

"Thanks." Matt replied.

Amy and Joe smiled.


Piedmon threw his swords and they stuck the two Mega digimon. They fell to one knee, breathing heavily.

"They're exhausted." Izzy said.

"I can't watch this anymore." Kari cried, covering her eyes.

"Lita we have to help them." Zapdomon said, looking at her partner.

"I agree." Lita replied.

"All of you stay where you are." Tai ordered.

Catherine, again, glanced back at the sky and behind her. "Mom, where are you?" she thought. "I hope you're alright." Catherine's blue pale blue eyes quivered with worry.


Zhuqiaomon flew overhead, with the DigiDestined on her back, on the lookout for Matt and the others.

"Down there!" T.K pointed down below them. He pointed to the swan shaped boat.

"That's Matt's boat!" Piper exclaimed.

"Take us down there girl." Rini ordered.

"You got it." Zhuqiaomon said.

The phoenix digimon descended down to land and reverted back to her Rookie level form. The group looked around for any trace of Matt and Gabumon.


"What's on your mind Catherine?" Nalamon asked.

Catherine had walked a few ways away from the others and continued to stare. She was hoping to spot a sight of her mother and the others.

"I just hope my mom's okay." Catherine said. "Remember what she told me as the last bedtime story before we traveled back here Nala?"

"Yes." replied the digimon. "The story of when she really knew how she felt about your dad during this time in her life."

Catherine nodded.


{Flashback}

Catherine climbed into her bed and Nalamon curled up next to her. Her mother, Piper, sat down next to her and tucked her in.

"Mom, will you tell me about the time when you realized that you had deeper feelings for Dad?" Catherine asked.

"That's the story you want me to tell you tonight?" Piper asked.

Catherine nodded.

"Alright then." Piper said. "Well it was during the end of our journey in the Digital World, I was looking for him, but at the same time I was doubting myself."

"More like blaming." Tigermon chimed in, jumping up on the bed.

"Why?" Catherine asked.

"I can't really remember why, but Tiger is right. I blamed myself for the group splitting up back then." Piper said. "I can only remember few details. The first thing, the main thing I remember was being trapped in darkness. The darkness in my own heart. I could faintly hear Astrate and Tigermon. But I was just too trapped to listen."

"Then you heard dad's voice?" Catherine questioned.

Piper nodded. "Yes. I heard his voice, then I saw him." she went on. "I saw him in a golden light, and it illuminated everything around me. Your father took my hands and told me that whatever I was saying or thinking wasn't true."

Catherine and Nalamon's eyes were twinkling. Tigermon rubbed against Piper's arms.

"The next thing I know." she went on. "I was laying in your dad's arms. His eyes were looking right into mine, and I think my heart literally skipped a beat. I felt like we were the only two people in that cave. Just remembering how his eyes were looking at me, full of relief that I was okay."

"How romantic." Catherine sighed.

"Yeah." agreed her mother. "Well I'm sure you might witness that for yourself. Just don't tell me that I told you this."

"I won't. But can I tell Rini?" Catherine asked.

"Yes." Piper kissed her daughter goodnight.

{End Flashback}


"Tai!" Catherine called.

The goggle headed brunette turned his head. "Yeah Cat?"

"I'm going to go find Piper and the others." she replied.

"Alright, just be careful." Tai said.

Catherine gave a thumbs up. "Ready Nala?"

"Yep." the lion cub digimon nodded. "Nalamon digivolve to…Lionessmon."

"Melody Crisis Power!" Catherine transformed into Super Melody and headed off to find the others.

"Please be okay Mom. Just please be okay." she thought as Lionessmon ran as fast as she could.


"I hope Matt's alright." Piper sighed.

"Where could he be?" Rini asked.

"Do you think we'll find him?" T.K asked as well.

Piper didn't say a word. "I'm not sure we'll find him in time. No…Tai trusted me to find the others and I won't let him down." she thought to herself.

A dark vortex opened up underneath Piper's white boots. "But could it be possible it's my fault we're in this mess? I mean I'm supposed to keep everyone together, it's my job as Sailor Harmony to do so…"

"Piper!" Rini and T.K exclaimed.

"There's a black thing coming up from the ground!" T.K warned.

"What?" Piper asked.

Suddenly the black vortex opened up and swallowed Piper, Tigermon, and Astrate.

"Piper!" exclaimed T.K, Patamon, Rini, Biyomon, and Diana.


"T.K!" Matt called.

"That sounds like Matt." T.K noticed.

Matt, Joe, Amy, and their digimon appeared not to far away from the two smaller scouts.

"Matt!" T.K exclaimed, happy to see his brother again.

Matt knelt down and T.K wrapped his arms around him. "I've missed you so much Matt." T.K sighed.

"Sorry T.K, I needed time to get my head straight." Matt apologized. "But I won't leave you again I promise."

He picked up his little brother off the ground. "Gee, Matt, you look different. Did you cut your hair or something?" T.K asked.

"No, I just haven't been using as much gel." Matt answered.

"So where is everybody?" Amy asked.

"Some weird dark thing came up from the ground and grabbed Piper and took her down there." Rini answered, pointing down the hole.

"Tigermon and Astrate went with her." Biyomon added.

"Does look familiar Matt?" Gabumon asked.

"Yeah it looks like the same cave we were trapped in before." Matt replied. "The same darkness must have gotten Piper."

"Well let's go down there and look for her." Joe voted.

"I agree." Amy added.

The group climbed down the hole and went on to look for Piper.

"Be careful." Matt warned. "It's fear that feeds the darkness, so don't be afraid."

"Easy for you to say." T.K said.


Down the paths, Piper was slumped against the cave wall. Her body enshrouded in darkness.

"It's all my fault. What good am I to the worlds if I can't keep one lousy group together." she muttered to herself.

"What does she mean?" Tigermon asked.

"I'm not sure." Astrate answered.

"What good am I?" Piper asked. "If I can't keep simple Harmony between a small group of kids, then how can I possibly keep it between the universe?"

"Oh no." Astrate sighed.

"What?" Tigermon asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Piper's white brooch began to turn darker and darker. Soon her entire Sailor Soldier outfit came undone. Her boots and gloves disappeared, leaving her legs and arms bare. The only remnant of clothing were red ribbons covering up where her skirt and top should be. The only solid thing was the brooch on Piper's chest, but the white crystal inside, had gone dark.

"Astrate what happened?" Tigermon asked, worriedly.

"She doubted her power as Sailor Harmony." replied the grey cat. "And because of that, the darkness zapped her energy. Resulting in her Sailor powers dying out."

"What's going to happen to Piper then?" Tigermon asked.

Astrate's ears dropped. "I can say this for sure, you won't like it."

"Why not?" Tigermon was beyond worried for her partner.

"The last time this happened, to her, she ended up in a coma like state for three days. She overused her powers and the result could have been much worse." Astrate said.

"What was the worse thing that could happen?" Tigermon asked.

"She could've died." Astrate said, bluntly.

Tigermon was silent. "Is there anything we can do?" her ears dropped.

"I'm going to go find Matt and the others." Astrate said. "Stay here."

"I will never leave Piper when she needs me." Tigermon said.

"Good." Astrate said.

The grey cat ran back through the cave, searching for the other DigiDestined.


"I hear something coming." Patamon said.

The DigiDestined turned and saw Astrate running towards them. Diana ran ahead and met Astrate.

"What's the matter?" Rini asked.

Astrate caught her breath. "It's Piper. She's in real trouble." said the grey cat.

"What kind of trouble?" Joe asked.

"Where is she Astrate?" Matt asked.

Astrate turned around. "Follow me." the group did as told and followed the small feline.


"Piper? Piper?" Tigermon kept calling her partner's name. "Please tell me what's wrong." she pleaded.

"Tigermon!" called the other digimon.

"Over here everyone!" Tigermon called back.

Astrate returned with Matt and the others.

"Piper." Matt breathed. He stood in front of her. "Piper you need to get up."

But Piper didn't even budge. "It's my fault. The group is split apart because of me." she mumbled.

"That's all she's been saying." Tigermon informed.

"What's the deal with her uniform?" Joe asked.

Everyone noticed the ribbons coming from Piper's dark colored brooch.

"She's doubting herself as the Sailor Scout she is. The darkness is killing her power, and therefore killing her." Astrate said.

"The last time her outfit was like this, she nearly did die." Amy remembered.

"What can we do?" Rini asked.

"Without Piper, we can't defeate Piedmon." T.K added.

"And without her I can't digivolve." Tigermon followed.

Matt knelt down in front of Piper and placed his hands on her shoulders. "Listen Piper, it's the darkness in your heart that created this cave. The negative energy is swallowing you. There is only one way to make this cave disappear, you have to reach down into your heart and erase all the negative feelings you have."

"I don't know if I can do it." Piper whimpered. "Matt what should I do?"

"You have to answer that question on your own." Matt replied. "This isn't the kind of thing you do because you have to do it. Piper it will only work if you want to do it."

"So you're saying that I don't have to do it if I don't want to?" Piper asked.

"Yes." Matt answered. "It will only work if you want to do it."

"I'm so confused." Piper whimpered again. "I'm not strong enough, I can't do it."

"Yes you are and you can." Matt told her. "You can do this, you just have to find it in your heart."

"But what if I can't do it in time?" Piper asked. "The world is in trouble."

"It's not just your job to save the Digital World Piper." Matt reminded. "It's all of ours."

"We're the only ones, who can make a difference." Piper sighed.

"That's it." Matt encouraged. "We need you Piper. But more importantly Tigermon needs you. She can't become Baihumon without you."

"Baihumon." Piper repeated.

"She needs you." Matt repeated again. "We all need you."

Piper lifted her head and her dark purple eyes were lifeless. She wallowed in her darkness. But Matt's words seemed to break through to her.

"The reason we're here is because we're the only ones who can save the Digital World." Piper breathed.

Her eyes closed and she fell forward, into Matt's arms. The dark cloud vanished.

"Piper?" T.K questioned.

"She's okay." Matt reassured. "She'll be fine."

Piper's eyes fluttered open and the life was back in them. She smiled. "Matt, how did you know?" she asked.

"I kinda went through the same thing myself." Matt answered.

"You saved me." Piper sighed. "From me."

"We all need you, so are you ready to save the Digital World?" Matt asked.

"Only if you and the others are right beside me, helping me." Piper answered.

"Always." Matt sighed.

Piper closed her eyes and inhaled. She wrapped her arms around Matt's neck and hugged him. The ribbons extending from her brooch reformed around her body and in a bright flash, her Super Harmony uniform was back together and the cave had vanished.

"Now that is something I will never get used to." Joe sighed.

The group had reappeared in the middle of the forest.


A few ways ahead, Lionessmon came running. Soon Super Melody noticed the others ahead of her. She was about to call out to everyone, but she noticed Piper and Matt, which stopped her.

"What is it Melody?" Lionessmon asked.

"Look girl. At my mother." Melody replied.

"Do you think?" Lionessmon began.

"I think so." Melody interrupted.


Amy saw Sailor Melody and Lionessmon a few feet away from where they were. "Look you guys."

Everyone turned.

"It's Lionessmon and Catherine." Rini giggled.

The lioness digimon joined up with everyone else. Catherine jumped down from her digimon.

"You alright mom?" she asked.

Piper smiled, "Never better."

Catherine ran to her mother and wrapped her arms around her. "I'm so glad that you're alright."

"And I'm ready to fight." Piper said. "How's Anubismon and WarGreymon?"

"They're doing alright, but they need the other Megas." Catherine answered.

"Well then I say we go for it." Biyomon voted.

"Go Biyo." Rini held her digivice.

"Biyomon warp digivolve to…Zhuqiaomon."

Rini climbed onto her Mega digimon, followed by, T.K, Patamon, Joe, and Gomamon. Amy and Catherine jumped on Lionessmon.

"Gabumon digivolve to…Garurumon."

Matt climbed onto his Champion digimon and held out his hand, "You ready?"

Piper nodded and took Matt's hand. She held on tight around his waist. The three digimon then took off, ready to fight with their friends against Piedmon.


Piedmon continued to attack the other two Mega digimon, but they weren't giving up that easily. The Dark Master attacked again, and this time the resulting aftershock not only injured WarGreymon and Anubismon, but Tai and Mina as well.

"How long can we keep this up?" Mina asked.

"Not for much longer, I can tell ya that." Tai answered.

Piedmon attacked again, it was aimed for the DigiDestined, but the two Megas blocked it.

"Tai! Mina!" called Izzy, who began to run over to them.

"No stay back Izzy. You need to protect Kari." Tai called back.

Izzy sighed. "Tai, look. I know it's important for me to stay here and protect Kari, but in the meantime, who's gonna protect you?"

"He tends to be a bit stubborn doesn't he?" Lita said, crossing her arms.

"Don't worry about me. I'm fine. I've got him right where I where I want him. He's exhausted." Tai managed to say.

"But I can help you!" Izzy yelled.

"Uh. I'm fine." Tai replied.

"That's funny. General Custer said the exact same thing at Little Bighorn." reminded Izzy.

Tai groaned. "Thanks for the history lesson."

"All right, then. Just one thing. How come every time I ask, you never let me join in the fight?" Izzy asked.

But before Tai or Mina could answer, Piedmon threw another attack and struck WarGreymon and Anubismon head on.

All the DigiDestined were shocked.

"They've been hit!" Kari exclaimed.

Armor from WarGreymon's body began to crumbled away, leaving parts of the skin exposed. Feathers came flying off of Anubismon's wings, and her long robe was torn and tattered.

"An…ubis…mon." Mina groaned. Her eyes fell shut and she fainted backwards and collapsed on the ground.

"War…Greymon." Tai collapsed two seconds later.


Piper gasped.

"What is it?" Matt asked her.

"It's Tai and Mina, they're in trouble." Piper answered. "Garurumon can you speed it up a little?"

"I can try." replied the wolf digimon. "Hang on tight."

Garurumon picked up speed and the group raced to the top of Spiral Mountain. They came over a small hill and saw everyone else.


"Tai! Mina!" called Matt and Piper.

"We're back everyone!" Rini added.

Lionessmon joined the others and Zhuqiaomon let Joe and T.K off of her. Garurumon stopped a few feet away from Tai and Mina.

"Mina." Piper breathed, helping her friend.

"Piper." Mina's blue eyes twinkled. "You're alright. I got the strangest feeling..."

"I'm fine, don't worry about me." Piper cut in.

"You're my sister, it's my job to worry." Mina said.

Piper chuckled. "I'm sorry I'm late." she apologized.

"Better late than never." Mina chuckled.

"I never doubted you, not once Piper." Tai told her.

Mina smiled at Tai, and Piper nodded. She looked at Matt. The two helped their injured friends to safety with the others.

Piper took the rose barrette from her hair and in a flash, it turned into the silver rod Sailor Pluto had given her. She closed her eyes. "Celestial…Rose…Rejuvenation…!" she screamed.

A stream of aurora light encircled the two fallen Megas and restored them to normal. Garurumon reverted back to his Rookie level.

"Tigermon warp digivolve to…Baihumon. Gabumon warp digivolve to…MetalGarurumon."

Zhuqiaomon joined the Megas and they formed a line separating Piedmon from the DigiDestined. The Dark Master threw his swords but before they could even make contact with the other Mega digimon, a jade green stream of light interrupted them.


"You weren't going to start the fight without little 'ol me right?" Serena giggled.

"I'm not going to let you mon have all the fun here." Ebonwumon added.

The newly arrived Mega joined the others and Serena reunited with her friends.

"Glad you could make it." Rini giggled.

"I told you I'd find you before the final battle." Serena reminded.

"Where's Reye?" Amy asked.

"She's with the digimon friends." Serena answered. "But she's fine, she'll be here."

Anubismon, WarGreymon, MetalGarurumon, Baihumon, Ebonwumon, and Zhuqiaomon stood ready to fight. They each fired their own attack, showing Piedmon just how ready they were.


Will the six Mega digimon have enough strength to defeate Piedmon, the last and strongest of the Dark Masters? Find out in the next chapter of, "When Destinies Collide"…

To Be Continued…
