"We gotta go save them!" Said Takuya.

"Wait. We can't jump in the battle head first. We need a plan." Said Nayna.

"Really? Last time I tried to make a plan, Koji almost beat me up." He said sheepishly as he and Koji shared an amused look.

"Don't worry. This time I'll make the plan. If he wants to fight…" She said passing Koji who was looking at her. "Bring it on."

Suddenly, Ahadi appeared in front of her.

"I could go to inspect the place where they went, if you want, my Queen." He said.

"That'd be great, Ahadi."

The lion rose and became a small reddish sphere that floated away. He returned in a short time.

"There are only the two. They have no allies. They arrived in a village. The inhabitants are trying to protect something…"

"Where?"

"There." He said turning his head in the direction where could be seen in the distance a huge plant.

"Let's go."

"I wouldn't do that." Someone spoke.

They looked around as the sound of screeching on tracks was heard.

Looking behind, they found that Mole had returned. It wasn't just him, some other Trailmon appeared.

"Yeah, tracking 'em down might be dangerous even." Angler said.

"Hey, Trailmon." Takuya smiled as he ran over to the burgundy Trailmon.

"You might as well just forget them." The burgundy one said as they walked over to him.

"But our friends..." Takuya insisted.

"Maybe they'll send you a postcard someday." Angler said.

"What?" Takuya asked.

"And why shouldn't we go after them?" Zoe asked.

"Yeah, we need to save them." Koichi said.

"They were probably taken to Beanstalk Village…" Said the green one.

"Beanstalk Village?" The goggle head asked.

"Bingo. What would you call a village with a humongous beanstalk growing up right in the middle of it; Bean Town?" The burgundy one asked.

"Right..."

"All right Trailmon, who wants to be the lucky one to take us to Beanstalk Village?"Takuya asked.

Angler, the burgundy Trailmon, a green Trailmon and black Trailmon all looked freaked out by that question and slowly started to go back down the tracks.

"I, uh, gotta do laundry." The burgundy Trailmon nervously said.

"I've got a buffing appointment in Breezy Village." The black Trailmon said.

The kids moved off of the tracks as they watched the Trailmon all drive away.

"Come on, help us out!" Takuya whined.

"A trailmon can do laundry?" Asked Nayna confused.

"Asking the real questions, huh?" Said JP

"That's just great. Now what?" Zoe asked.

The sound of snoring alerted them that there was someone else, they walked over to the tunnel and walked down it to find a sleeping trailmon and it looked like the one that Takuya had raced with.

"Sounds like he's counting some sheep." JP said.

"More like buffalo." Zoe said.

"Well, whatever he's counting, he's our last chance." Takuya said.

"Rise and shine! All aboard for Beanstalk Village!" JP yelled cheerfully hoping to wake him up.

It didn't work, so Takuya jumped over and started tickling the Trailmon, JP grinning as he followed his example.

"It's metal… How do you think that will work?" Asked Nayna a bit confused.

Trailmon then sneezed loudly, sending the two boys flying back, Koichi helping JP up while Bokomon looked over Takuya.

"Hey, what was that about? I'm trying to get some shut eye here." Trailmon complained.

Zoe then went all cutesy and moved over to him, her hands clasped together as she winked at him.

"We just love that you're so outspoken. You think a big tough Trailmon can help me out?" She gushed making him blush and smile.

"Why sure. You can just call me Wormy." He said.

JP had hearts in his eyes in amazement with how Zoe worked while Takuya looked on in disbelief and Nayna looked even more confused.

"Kill me now…" She said, Koji looking at her amused.

"Actually, we all could use your help. We need a ride to Beanstalk Village." Koji said turning back to the trailmon.

"No. You practically scare my wheels off yelling at me and now you expect me to give you a lift?" Worm asked as he looked annoyed and started moving back.

"Well, that sure would be nice of ya." Takuya responded.

"Listen, I' never been there and besides, I need more rest. Nap time and don't wake me, goodnight" Worm said as he moved off to the side to sleep.

Bokomon then spotted something on Worm and ran over to him, wiping the dust off of his plate to reveal what it said.

"A moment Mister Worm, your plate says otherwise." Bokomon said.

Curious, the rest ran over and smiled at what the plate read.

"You're the Beanstalk Village express. My guess is you were still a little sleepy and just forgot where you were going, right?" Takuya asked.

Worm looked surprised and a bit embarrassed at that and shook his body making them jump back as his plate fell off.

Zoe had a look of disbelief on while Takuya pouted in annoyance, JP frowned.

"What a giver." Zoe sighed.

"He's all heart." Takuya quipped.

"I know what will make him change his mind." Said Zoe getting everyone's attention. "A good clean up will make anyone happier and more giving."

"Doubt that… "Said Nayna.

"Well, it deserves a shot...I guess..."Said Takuya.

Seeing Koji, Nayna wanted to go to talk to him but Koichi beat her to that and went to his brother. She sighed and went back to her work.

After all, Worm took off and they managed somehow to embark him.

Suddenly Worm then pulled the breaks making Takuya's face hit the window as the rest of them swayed or fell down from the force of the sudden stop.

"Now what?'' Takuya asked.

They got outside and walked to the front of the tracks only to stare in annoyance and surprise at the canyon in front of them where the tracks were missing.

"Oh man." Zoe whined.

"I'm kind of tired. Sleeping bye, nappy time." Worm yawned.

"Well, I'm tired of your attitude, Worm boy!" JP yelled at him.

"Attitude, shmattitude. If there was tracks, I'd be more than willing to take ya across." Worm said, but they ignored him as they huddled up and started whispering to each other.

Takuya had come up with an idea and was telling the rest.

"Now that's a plan. Good plan." Neemon chuckled quietly as Patamon zipped around.

They all then pulled out of the huddle and laughed as they faced Worm making him flinch nervously.

"W-What's going on?" He asked slowly backing up.

They all then cheered as they ran over to the tracks behind him and started using poles to tear then apart to use to complete the tracks in front.

"Whatever you're doing, it's not funny! Hold up, if you tear up that rail, then how am I gonna get back to where I belong?!" Worm yelled nervously.

"We need this to repair the track ahead." Takuya said as he and the boys carried the rail they pulled off over to the front.

"Now you can't run away." JP said.

"Sit tight." Koji said.

"This'll just take a sec." Zoe smiled.

Soon enough, all of them were working together to fix the new tracks while Worm just watched the kids work together.

Again, Nayna wanted to go to help and manage to talk to Koji but again, Koichi was the first one.

Takuya walked over in front of the trailmon to grab some rope that they had been using to tie the rails together and hammered the tracks down into the metal.

"Hey human?" Worm asked.

"Hmm? What Worm?" Takuya asked.

"Tell me, why you guys so hot on getting to Beanstalk Village anyways?" Worm asked.

"We gotta save our other friends that got snatched up by the Royal Knights. They were heading towards Beanstalk Village." Takuya explained.

"And they have an even bigger task; saving the Digital World. Without the help of these brave humans, our world would already be gone." Bokomon added in urgently.

"What a useless cause." Worm said.

"What?" They all asked.

"You can't fight that; sooner or later those Royal Knights will turn everything into data. Stuff's disappearing every day. The land I run on is starting to look like Swiss cheese and my friends…I tell ya, my boiler starts burning whenever I think of all my buddies that have gone down for the count. Let's face it; your friends have probably already been scanned. You might as well just pack it in." Worm said.

His words made all of them look down in sadness.

Creaking made them turn to see Takuya was still working on trying to get the tracks fixed.

"Takuya." Zoe said.

"Hey, didn't ya hear me? Give it up." Worm said.

"I'm not ever gonna give up. Tommy, Katsuharu and the others are waiting for us to rescue them. I'm not gonna let them down. If we just keep believing in ourselves and going forward we'll win." Takuya said as he then turned to the rest.

"We'll do whatever it takes to save this world, right?" Takuya raised a fist in determination.

"Yeah, you bet." JP said.

"That's right." Zoe said as she ran over with tears in her eyes and looked like she wanted to hug Takuya.

"I mean, let's face it; the Digital World is kind of like our second home." Takuya said.

"Yeah." They all readily agreed.

"You call this place home?" Worm asked sounding amazed.

"And you guys really believe you can save it? You humans got a lot of moxy, but how can you save this place?" he asked.

"I don't have a set plan," Takuya admitted walking "if we humans join up with all you digimon, I know we can do it and before you know it, you'll be back to racing around the Digital World that's in one piece again." Takuya smiled.

"When you put it that way, that sounds kind of great. Guess we better make tracks." Worm said.

"You're gonna take us all the way?" Zoe asked as she stood next to Takuya.

"How about shining me up before we head out?" Worm grinned.

"Not likely." JP frowned as he rammed his elbow into Worm's side.

"All aboard kids, let's move it!" Worm called.

After they were ready, they took off again.

Nayna went in another wagon and sat down looking out the window, with her head on her arms. She heard the door open and close but she didn't bothered to turn.

"Do you need anything?" She asked without looking.

"Are you mad at me again?" Asked Koji sitting beside her.

"No."

"Then why are you acting like this?"

"I'm not acting like...anything...I'm just surprised that you came to check on me and Koichi didn't followed."

"Are… Are you jealous on Koichi?" He asked partly amused partly surprised.

"What?" She said turning to him shocked and red. "No! Don't be ridiculous!" She said looking away blushing even more then looked at the floor. "I am really happy for you to have found your brother...ok?" She said raising her feet on the seat and hugging her knees, she put her head on top of them. "But since you have him...You won't need me around anymore…" She said, her eyes full of sorrow.

He looked at her surprised.

"You know very well your weakness, compared to him though, you are scared of being alone." He remembered Karatimons words again, his eyes widening again then with a sight he put his arm around her, pulling her closer to him.

"Hey, just because I have a brother now, doesn't mean I don't need you anymore. You both are important for me and I care for both of you. He is my brother but you are my girlfriend. I'll always need you." He said rubbing her shoulder.

She didn't say anything, just looked at the floor.

"Hey." He said lifting her chin to him. "I will never forget about you."

"Yeah sure…" She said but she was cut off by his kiss.

She squeaked in surprise, but soon relaxed returning it, letting her hands travel to his chest, grabbing his jacket.

After he broke the kiss, their eyes finally met .

"Seems like you were moody from other reasons too." He said amused.

She didn't said anything. She nuzzled her head into his neck and hugged him, he returning it.

"We're fine now?" He asked looking down at her, the only response she gave was a slight nod next to his neck.

Suddenly, the trailmon picks up speed and turns upside down.

The two fall from their seats. As the loophole ends, Nayna falls on Koji's chest. He grunts from the impact and puts a hand around her as he looks down at her.

"You ok?" He asked.

"Yeah...Luckily I fell on soft…" she said with a shy smile as she got up and tried to get to the others as the road still seemed treacherous.

As the trailmon went into another loop, they were all rolling around in the air while Patamon just floated as he stared at them curiously since he was flying and unaffected by the movements.

Finally, the ride became smoother as they went through a tunnel and on the other end they found the Royal Knights along with the kids and a bunch of Mamemon.

Worm ran right into Dynasmon making him let go of the elder he was holding while Crusadermon jumped out of the way.

Katsuharu, who had his Fractal Code showing around him, fell to the ground as the Code faded away and Teppei was there to help him.

"Katsuharu, Tommy!" Takuya yelled slamming the door open.

Tommy was tied up by yellow ribbons which could only have been used by the Pink Annoyance.

"We're all OK. Can you get this off?" Tommy asked the Mamemon next to him.

"Sure I can." Mamemon said as he used his Smiley Bomb to dissolve the ribbons.

"Great, hey, thanks a lot guy." Tommy smiled as Mamemon held his D-Tector up to him.

"What a fun choo-choo." Patamon giggled while Neemon and Bokomon were lying on the ground looking dizzy and sick.

"Sure, if gravity wasn't our boss." Said Nayna shaking her head.

"My back is bent like a pretzel." Bokomon moaned while Neemon whined.

"Tommy, are you OK?" Zoe asked the boy as he came over to the others.

"Yep." Tommy smiled.

Crusadermon was up on the beanstalk and sent out her ribbon to get the kids, but Worm spat out a pillar of flame to destroy it.

"Takuya, Koji, you've gotta do it." JP said.

Koji and Takuya both nodded while the others pulled out their D-Tectors and fusion digivolved.

"How amusing. You two insist on being thrashed by us again?" Dynasmon asked.

"This time your impudence will be rewarded more appropriately. We will not show you any mercy." Crusadermon promised.

EmperorGreymon stabbed his sword into the ground as the lines of flames went out and he called on his Pyro Dragons, the flames turning into dragon heads that went after Dynasmon who used his Dragon Throwing to eliminate them.

MagnaGarurumon took to the air and used his Magna Rockets on Crusadermon, but she spun around to avoid getting hit.

MagnaGarurumon kept on firing his missiles and bullets at her, but she used her ribbons to protect herself from the hit then she used her ribbons to grab Koichi and held him in front of her making me hesitate.

"And check you pathetic pawn." She said.

"No, let him go!" Zoe called.

MagnaGarurumon then stepped closer and he did not look very happy that his brother was being used.

"Stop, don't you hurt him!" he demanded.

"What? I see. You can't attack because you wish to protect this human." Crusadermon said as she tightened her ribbon around Koichi making him cry out in pain.

"Koichi!" MagnaGarurumon called.

Suddenly a disk hit Crusadermon in the back.

She turned around only to see Nayna with another two disks in hand.

"Heard him." Let him go. She growled.

Crusadermon laughed looking at the girl.

"You want to play too?"

"You don't want me to play." She said throwing the other two disks at the pink digimon, trying to cut the ribbon that was around Koichi but Crusadermon protected herself with other ribbons.

EmperorGreymon growled as he turned to help them, but Dynasmon grabbed his shoulder and pulled him back, his other arm going around his throat.

"If I were you, I'd be more worried about myself." Dynasmon threatened.

"Release him you witch!" MagnaGarurumon growled.

"How dare you!" Crusadermon yelled as she shot out her ribbons to smack him, but Nayna used another disk and cut them away.

JP, Tommy, Katsuharu and Zoe all started cheering for them to attack her and beat her.

"Your slings and arrows fall short for I am beauty personified compared to you homely humans." Crusadermon said.

Zoe, JP and Tommy all frowned in disbelief at that.

"Wow, take a bow." Zoe said unimpressed.

"Yeah, she's all that." JP quipped.

On top of Worm, the Mamemon were climbing up onto the beanstalk.

Nayna got annoyed with the pink digimon, with a growl she made a much bigger disk that she threw at her but she dodged it but Nayna smirked as the disk returned and pierced the Royal Knight in the back making all the ribbons to be cut, freeing Koichi, he falling back and landing in the Magnagarurumon's hand.

"Thanks a lot Koji." Koichi smiled up at his brother.

"Why sure. Anytime, brother." MagnaGarurumon said.

"Aw, brotherly love is grand." Crusadermon gushed but in a more dignified manner.

Zoe, JP and Tommy staring at her in disbelief.

"I think her helmet's on too tight." JP pointed out.

EmperorGreymon was then slammed into the beanstalk by Dynasmon.

"I am rather enjoying this." The Evil Knight said.

"Enough doddling. We can't keep Lord Lucemon waiting." Crusadermon said.

"Then let's just finish this." Dynasmon said.

Crusadermon then went to use Fist of Athena on MagnaGarurumon and Nayna while Dynasmon went to use Dragon Thrower on EmperorGreymon.

Nayna jumped away while MagnaGarurumon got hit in the stomach.

"Heads up, EmperorGreymon!" JP called as EmperorGreymon was then hit next.

"Takuya, Koji!" Zoe cried.

"The time has come." Dynasmon said.

"Your demise will be glorious." Crusadermon said.

"Think again!" Said Nayna jumping in front of them as she created a dozen of the fire disks ready to launch them.

"Royal Knights, stop!" the elder Mamemon cried as he ran. "The key you seek is at the top of the beanstalk. It is a golden pod and when you take it from there, the lock will be undone." He said pointing upwards.

"Elder One." Zoe spoke on worry.

Dynasmon then flew up to retrieve it.

"Once the key is found, the land will once again sleep peacefully." Elder One sighed.

Four golden glimmers then came down from the top meaning Dynasmon had slashed open the pod.

Slowly, the beanstalk started to show its Fractal Code as Dynasmon flew down.

"The Code has been colored by the beauty of friendship." Crusadermon said as she jumped up.

Worm then drove around the beanstalk with everyone inside of him, MagnaGarurumon jumping on top of Worm while EmperorGreymon took to the air and flew off as the land started to come apart.

Once they made it to the broken track, they de-digivolved and stood with the others as they looked out to see Dynasmon toss the datasphere down to the Dark Area where Lucemon was sleeping, then the two Phony Knights flew off.

"It's completely gone." Takuya observed.

"The beanstalk and your village too." Tommy said.

"It's sad; Katsuharu, now you and your friends must leave this world." Elder One said.

"Not without taking you Mamemon. We'll find you a place to live." Katsuharu insisted.

"We will not leave the Digital World. This place is our home. Our village was destroyed, but we can always find another place to build. But if we were to lose dear friends like you that would truly be a tragedy. We can always plant another bean and nurture its possibilities. Elder One smiled as he opened his fist to reveal a glowing seed. Who knows? This one may even grow as big as this one that you planted Katsuharu." He said.

Back in Steel Town, Katsuharu, Teppei, Chiaki and Teruo were ready to go back to the Human World.

"Why are all of you staying here?" Chiaki asked.

"Well, we still got a lot of stuff we need to take care of here." Takuya said.

"Hey, Tommy, why don't you come back with us?" Teppei offered.

"I want to stay right here and help save this place. We have lots of digimon friends just like you do and we can't let them down." Tommy said.

"We're counting on ya." Katsuharu smiled.

"Thanks." Tommy smiled.

"Well, good luck." Teppei said hesitantly as he, Teruo and Chiaki looked a bit sad.

"Yeah, we're going back home. Be careful you guys." Katsuharu laughed as they boarded their trailmon.

Stopping, he then turned back to us.

"Tommy, sorry for trying to force you in before. You can shove me inside this time." He offered as he showed off his back and jabbed his thumb at it. "Go for it." he said turning his back to the boy.

Laughing playfully, Tommy then pushed Katsuharu into the car and closed.

"Whoo! The Earth bound express is leaving the rails!" Worm said as he blew his whistle and started moving.

"Well, I guess it's our time to move…" said Nayna as they got another trailmon.

"I guess…" said Takuya as everyone boarded it.

Everyone looked at the moving scenery outside the window.

"We lost again…What if we won't be able to save the digital world?" Said Koji sighting looking at the floor.

"Well, that is some optimism… " Said Nayna sitting by the window where he was leaning by the wall.

"Hi, everyone, who wants some yummy burgers? Everything free for our heroes." Came a Burgermon in.

The others, all went in another wagon where a Burgermon prepared them some food, in the wagon remaining just the two.

"Don't you wanna go to eat? You fought a lot…"

"Not hungry." He said looking out the window with a frown on his face.

"Hey, don't worry. I know that you and the others will manage to defend this place. I really believe in you…"

He looked at her surprised.

"Thanks…" He said with a smile but he was surprised by Nayna who raised and kissed him. For the first time she being the one kissing him. Breaking the kiss for a moment looking at her then, with a smile, he kissed her back, as his hands went around her waist and in her hair, keeping her close.

"Hey, Ko-oh…" Said Koichi entering the wagon but seeing the two stooped.

The two watched him surprised then at each other and broke apart blushing.

"Koji…" Said Koichi grinning.

"Koichi, you say something to someone and I swear…"

"Calm down bro, I know about you two since I came into the group." He said and left.

"What…"

"Yeah…Told you he was the ass from between you two."

"He was teasing you about this?"

"Yeah, thank you very much for believing me."
