With one section of the Thunder Temple to go, our heroes are just one step away from reaching the Dark Temple. Will they find their answers or their friend Ravio? They must first defeat the Thunder Captain before they can find out.


Ben, Summer Takumi and Arata stood in the final area of the Thunder Temple. Ben's choice of Pokemon this time was his newly recruited Electrode and Summer brought her new Granbull.

"Let's clear this as fast as we can." Summer said. "Ravio's waiting for us. I know it!"

They looked in front of them. The pathway split into three. The left and middle paths were watched by Beldum the right path had a Luxray. All three paths had a Warpzone.

"Okay, where to first?" Ben asked.

"Let's stay away from the right path." Summer said. "I've had enough of running away from Luxrays."

"Okay then. Let's take the left path. First we gotta deal with the Beldum."

"Okay!" Terriermon ran over to it. Terrier Tornado!" Takumi's Digimon partner shot a small cyclone that flew into Beldum making it spin repeatedly, and get dizzy.

"Granbull, Crunch!" Summer's Pokemon did not hesitate when hearing her orders and ran over to the Pokemon biting it three times. It dropped to the floor unconscious.

"Okay, let's go." Ben lead the way down the left path and to the green WarpZone. They landed in a square room. Two angry Beldum rushed towards them. "Look out!"

Ben and Summer ducked as they charged towards them. They turned around for another attack. "RUN!" Ben and Summer yelled as they ran towards the other end of the room.

"Wait for us!" Takumi grabbed Terriermon as he and the others followed. They ran into the green WarpZone on the other end of the room and once they were in the clear they stopped to catch their breaths.

"That was close…" Arata breathed.

Ben looked up. "Yeah. But now where are we…wait…" It took little time to recognize it. The pathway splitting into three. The knocked out Beldum on the left path, the Luxray on the right. "What the heck?! This is the same room we started in!"

"I guess we can't just take any route." Takumi said.

Summer sighed. "Oh well. Let's go for the middle path next."

"Hold on a second Summer." Arata said. "Maybe we should try taking the odd one out."

"What do you mean?"

"Arata's right." Takumi nodded. "There is one path with a different Pokemon guarding it. And a stronger Pokemon at that. Wouldn't it make more sense to have the stronger one to guard the right pathway?"

"I guess that makes sense…But that means getting past the stronger Pokemon."

"Not a problem."

DIGIVOLUTION

"Keramon Digivolve to…Bakemon!"

"Terriermon Digivolve to…Ikkakumon!"

Both Takumi and Arata's evolved Digimon charged towards Luxray. The walrus Digimon rammed his horn into it and the ghost slipped behind before latching onto it's back. "Physical Drain!" The Luxray's actions started to slow as its energy was stolen. Ben captured it easily.

"Alright, let's see where this take us." Ben said. They went through the gate and landed in a room identically shaped to the one they were just in, however they immediately noticed the glowing Porygon Z.

Arata stepped towards it. "Looks like we found todays pick. Let's get him!"

"Harpoon Torpedo!" Ikkakumon shot a missile at it, but the Pokemon evaded the shot.

"Pichu, Thunder Shock!" Pichu twanged his ukulele and a bolt zapped it.

"Let's try that again." Takumi said. "Ikkakumon!"

"Harpoon Torpedo!" Ikkakumon fired again and this time the missile made contact and exploded. While it was on the ground, Summer captured it.

"One down." Summer looked at the three paths ahead. "Where to now?


Kira, sighed to herself as she stood alone in the plaza with Nokia.

The gate opened and Tanvir returned with Fei and Ami. "No luck?" Agumon asked.

Ami shook her head. "No. And we looked everywhere."

"Yuugo and Yuuko are with the Steelhead. They said they wanted to look for a bit longer with them." FanBeemon said. "But I honestly don't like their chances. I doubt he's still in the Forrest."

Nokia sighed. "Ravio…where are you? Takumi…Please hurry."


Ben and co stood in front of the active red WarpZone. "Well, this is it. You guys ready?"

Everyone nodded. "I hope the captain knows where Ravio is." Summer muttered.

"If not, we'll at least get access to the Dark Temple where Sabios is." Arata replied. "We'll end everything there."

The team nodded as they entered the WarpZone and went into the final room in the deepest part of the Thunder Temple. They ascended to the arena where a man with bright yellow armor stood next to an Electivire. He had a neckless with a yelloe stone with a bright yellow crystal inside. "So, you have made it this far. I am Brotos. Captain of the Thunder Temple."

Arata scanned the Pokemon. "That's an Electivire. A fully evolved Electric Pokemon. It's supposedly headless of enemy attacks and can let loss over 20,000 volts of power through it's two tails."

"Brotos…who's really pulling the strings here?" Takumi asked. "Is it Ellios or Sabios?"

"The Steelhead answer to no one."

"Well we all know that's a lie." Arata scoffed.

"Think what you want. That is none of my concern. All that matters is that you are a nuisance to his-OUR plans!" The Oracle clapped his hands together. "And I will personally have you removed!"

"This is it guys. Get ready!" Ben said.

"Ha! We took down three captains before!" Summer smiled. "This'll be a cinch!"

"It is true that you have defeated Pagos and the others." Brotos said. "Even though you may be children…I will hold nothing back!"

"Who are you calling children you yellow trash can!?"

"Wow. Summer does not like being called that." Takumi muttered.

"We're Top Rangers." Ben whispered. "It's kinda embarrassing for her when people treat her like a kid."

"I'll show you who's a kid creep! Capture on!"

Ben and Summer shot their Stylers towards Electivire. The captain held his hands close together over his head. The Electivire mirrored his movements. A storm of massive lightning bolts rained down around the area.

Everyone started running around franticly dodging thunder. "Yikes!" Ben yelled. "We'll never get past this guy like this!"

Takumi put on his goggles. "Ikkakumon, time to Digi-

"Look out!" Arata tackled him to the ground right before he could be struck by lightning.

"Oh, come on! He's not even giving us a chance to Digivolve our Digimon!"

"I know better than to underestimate, someone who defeated three captains." Brotos said.

"We just need to get an opening…" Ben muttered as they jumped around lightning.

"Good luck with that."

Then two bolts came down right on top of Takumi and Arata.

"GYAAAAAAAH!"

"AAAAAAAAAH!"

Both of them collapsed onto the floor. Summer stopped moving and turned towards them. "Takumi! Arata!"

"Summer, look out!"

Just as Ben tried to warn her, her Staraptor flew above her just in time to intercept a bolt. It squawked and fell to the ground.

"Staraptor!"

"Summer, don't stop moving!"

As the Rangers dodged bolts, and their remaining Pokemon tried to get close to Electivire only to be chased away by lightning, Arata weakly looked up. "Takumi…? You hanging in there?"

"Sort of…Gah! I…Can't move…"

"Oh, great…"

"Takumi!"

"Arata!"

Ikkakumon and Bakemon ran over to them. "Guys…Sorry…" Takumi groaned. "Don't…worry about us…"

"He's right…you two…should be helping Ben and Summer fight…" Arata added.

"We can't help it!" Ikkakumon said. "When I see you hurt, I get so worried that I can't concentrate!"

"Heh, heh…I guess I can't be mad over that…" Takumi chuckled faintly. "I feel the same when I see others get hurt."

"I don't want to see my friends get hurt either…I guess that's what I think about every time I Digivolve. Now that I can fight with you again, I want to help as many people as possible."

Takumi slowly put a hand over his partner's paw. "Me too."

Bakemon floated over to Arata. "I don't want to let my pals down."

Arata smiled. "Me neither…when I regained my memories, I promised myself I wouldn't lose my friends again…never again…"

Ben and Summer were still dodging lightning. "Ben…I'm getting tired…"

"We can't dodge this forever…We have to do something…"

While distracted by his thoughts Ben jumped back and landed awkwardly, before falling over.

"Ben!"

Electivire looked right at the Ranger, ready to strike. Ben braced himself knowing a bolt was about to land on him.

"You're finished! Hmm?" Bortos noticed a shine in the corner of his eye. He looked to his left and Arata was back on his feet, hoisting one of Takumi's arms over his shoulders. The two of them were glowing yellow and blue. "Impossible! How can they stand after taking that blast?!"

Takumi laughed. "Don't underestimate the power we share with our Digimon. The power of our teamwork!" Ikkakumon and Bakumon stood proudly at their side. Takumi slid his goggles down as Arata took his Digivice out from his pocket.

DIGIVOLUTION

From Takumi's hand and Arata's Digivice two lights rose up and descended onto the Digimon.

"Ikkakumon Digivolve to…Triceramon!"

"Bakemon Digivolve to…Pumpkinmon!"

"Wow…From a walrus and a ghost to a dinosaur and a pumpkin." Summer said. "Didn't see that coming." She took out her Styler. "Triceramon is a Ultimate Level Data Digimon. Is skin is one of the toughest among organic Digimon It's charge dan even destroy the sturdy bodies of mineral Digimon."

Ben scanned the other. Pumpkinmon is also a Data Type Ultimate. It Despite it's appearance it has a powerful offensive ability. What's more is it's face rarely changes expression making what it is thinking a complete mystery."

"Electivire, strike them down!" The Thunder Captain's Pokemon raised its hands into the air.

"Oh no you don't."

"Trick or Treat!" Arata's Digimon threw a huge pumpkin at it. It crashed on top of it, and trapped it's arms and head in it.

"What the?!" Bortos couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"He can't shoot thunder at us like that." Arata grinned. "Ben, Summer, now's your chance!"

"Right! Go Electrode!"

"Granbull!"

As Ben and Summer looped their Stylers around the Electivire, their Pokemon started to close in.

"Rollout!"

"Thrash!"

Electrode spun in place before charging into the target and bounced off of it. While Electivire stumbled back just as Granbull rammed into it. When it fell over the pumpkin slipped off.

Bortos growled in annoyance. "That's it! I've had enough of these games!" The Thunder Captain tapped his crystal and held his arms up in an X. Then in front of him in a X. He swung them to the right, then held them in front of him in an odd curve shape with open palms. "Gigavolt Havoc!" Electivire roared and electricity sparkled around it. Ben and Summer pulled their Stylers back just in time. The Pokemon fired a huge thunder bolt toward them.

"Triceramon!"

"Tri-Horn Attack!" Takumi's Digimon stormed towards the attack with him horns. The attack stopped him in his tracks for a bit. He roared as the lifted his head up and threw the Z-Move into the ceiling, blowing a huge chunk out of it. Then he charged and rammed Electivire. Triceramon keep going until he smashed it against a wall.

Electivire slumped down to the ground. Ben and Summer finally finished catching it. "That's the end of that." Arata said.

The captain brought a hand to his aching forehead and gasped. "I've been dreaming…I was fighting some strangers…and those strangers were you. Now my heart is full of pain…"

"I'm afraid that was no dream." Arata said. "More like a nightmare. And it isn't over yet."

"What do you mean?"

"Before we explain, you haven't seen Ravio around by any chance, have you?" Ben asked.

"Ravio? Ellios's son? Not recently, why?"


Ben, Summer, Takumi and Arata returned the plaza with the Thunder Captain in tow. Tanvir bowed. "Thunder Captain, long time no see. Judging from what I see, you must have already understood what you've done…"

"These people have told me everything." Brotos replied. "How did I let myself do such horrible things…? Well, no time to waste now. You must go to the next temple right away. Poor temple oracles and Pokemon…" The man held his hands out a chanted as he glowed gold. "There, you should be able to go to the Dark Temple now."

"Sweat." Ben punched his palm. "Time to show this Sabios freak what's what."

"The Pokemon in the Dark Temple are extremely tough. You must stay focused at all times."

"Thanks for your help." Takumi said.

"By the way, Thunder Captain…Have you seen Ravio?" Tanvir asked.

Brotos looked at him. "No, I haven't…I heard he's missing for your friends here."

"Oh, that's unfortunate. We are desperate to get some clues…"

Celebi looked down. "Bii…"

"Tanvir! We've got a clue!"

Yuugo, Yuuko and a worried Steelhead ran over to the crowd. "When we were coming back in, we found a letter lying on the other side of the gate! It's a letter for you, Tanvir."

"For me?" Tanvir walked over to the siblings and took it. "This must be from Sabios." After looking at it a bit he gasped.

"Well? What's it say?" Fei asked.

"Don't just stand there and leave us in suspense!" Terriermon said. "Read it to us!"

Tanvir sighed before reading our loud. "I just found Ravio in Teakwood Forest. He's injured, so he's under our care now. Ellios, his father, is too busy to deal with him. I myself have so many things to take care of, too. Please come and get Ravio."

"Huh…Seriously?" Summer asked. "He's going to give him back just like that? Maybe we were wrong."

"Let's hear the rest of this before we decide." Yuugo said. "Continue Tanvir."

"No need for you or Kira to come, Tanvir. Ben and Summer alone will do. Sabios."

"Huh? Me and Ben? Why?"

"Warning. Potential of this being a trap to capture our only means to secure the temples: 98.76%." Hagurumon said.

"Er, yeah what he said!" Kira added. "The words may be polite, but this must be a trap to lure Ben and Summer!" As she said that Takumi pulled Arata and Ami over to him and started whispering to them.

"But what if Ravio really is injured?" Nokia asked.

"We'll find out soon." Ben said. "Let's go Summer."

"Right."

Tanvir looked at him. "Ben? This is obviously a trap. Are you sure you're going alone?"

"We have no choice. Pokemon Rangers can't abandon innocents in need just because of a little danger."

"Ben…" Kira muttered. "Summer…"

"Neither can Cyber Sleuths." Takumi said. "Ami and I are going with you."

"Then we're going too." Yuuko said.

Nokia stepped forward. "Yeah! Hang on Ravio, we're coming!"

Takumi shook his head. "Sorry, guys, but the four of us are going alone. We'll take Celebi just in case, but I want the rest of you to stay here."

"Huh?!"

"It's nothing against you. It's just that if we mess up, we'll need backup."

The girls looked ready to object when Arata stepped in. "Give it a rest you two. They have a plan."

"They do?" Nokia asked. "Isn't Kyoko the one with a plan all the time? I don't know if they can pull that off…"

"Uh, rude!" Ami had her hands on her hips with a grin. "Did you forget who learned from Kyoko in this group?"

"I think it's more a matter of how much you listen." Yuuko replied.

"We aren't Nokia, we don't just run off on our own without a saying word, or wait until the last minute to give the signal to act!"

Nokia looked at Ami. "What are you-

Takumi teasingly grinned at her. "Plan to stop Leopardmon ring any bells, Nokia Express?"

"Oh, come on!" Nokia growled. "Will you let that go already?! I apologized, didn't I!?" Everyone else started laughing.

"I don't know how I can laugh at a time like this…" Kira giggled. "Somehow…with you guys around I just feel this will all work out."

"We'll save Ravio guys." Takumi said. "I promise. Celebi, you with us?"

"BiiI!"

"Be careful." Yuugo said. "If Sabios can control the other oracles and even the captains, who knows what else he'll do."

"We got it." Takumi replied. "Come on, let's go."

Once the team went through the door Ben turned to Takumi. "So, what exactly is your plan?"

The junior detective grinned. "Remember when you went to Daybreak Ruins for a prisoner exchange with Red Eyes?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Before I say, let me tell you a story Ami and I heard from Kyoko once."


In a clearing in the forrest, Sabios waited patiently with two Steelheads. One of which were tightly gripping Ravio's arms.

His head lifted when he heard footsteps. Ben and Summer were approaching with Pichu and Staraptor. "You must be Ben and Summer?"

Ben glared at him. "And you're Sabios. The oracle who from what I hear is only good at talking too much and nothing else."

The man smirked. "I have my reasons for asking you to come alone. Those two, Tanvir and Kira betrayed us. They don't wear armor like we do. I cannot trust those two."

"Look who's talking!" Summer yelled. "Where's your armor? Or do you not bother since all you can do is rant?!"

"I wear my armor under my cloths."

"Hmm…Betrayed you?" Ben asked with his eyes closed as if in deep though. "Eh, not the way I would put it."

"Oh, then how would you put it if I may ask?"

He went back to glaring at the man. "They're too mature for it. Unlike you and your brainwashed Steelheads, they understand that controlling Pokemon is a major responsibility that you can't handle!"

"Oh? Yet I hear you two control Pokemon even without armor? Are you perhaps saying you're more mature then we are?" Ben and Summer detached their Stylers from their wrists. "What are those?"

"These are our Capture Stylers." Summer said. "These are futuristic devices that let us communicate with our Pokemon."

"Interesting. So that's how you defeated the oracles."

"Sabios, you can have these but leave Ravio out of this!" Ben said as he and Summer tossed the disks at his feet.

The man looked down and picked them up. "Ben, Summer, people change their minds more often than you'd imagine. I'm thinking now that I want to keep Ravio…I'd like him to work for me."

Ravio shuddered. "What are you talking about?!"

"Ravio here is quite useful indeed. I managed to lure you out here, didn't I?"

"Ben! Summer! Run! Don't worry about me!"

"I'm afraid it's too late for that. The evil source…I think it's time for you two to leave the stage!"

Ben grinned. "Before you do that, did you know Summer here and I were not the only ones who came from the future?"

"These "Digimon" and their handlers, yes? Ravio told me as much. I'm no fool Ben. I still know too little about these Digimon. I didn't want them coming because I didn't want to bite off more than I can chew."

"But did you know they're actually from another world? It's pretty cool actually. We've learned a lot from them."

"I have no time for-

"Ah, ta, ta! Just humor me for a bit. See before we got here, Takumi told me about an old war tactic from his world long ago called the Trojan Horse."

"Trojan Horse?"

"Yup." Summer smiled. "What happened is during a war a bunch of soldiers pretended to desert and gave their enemies a giant wooden horse, saying it was an offering of their gods."

"Who in their right mind would do something so foolish? Something like that must have taken so much of their time and resources to build. Just to give it to their enemies?"

"Because once it was allowed into the gates of the enemy city, a bunch of soldiers hiding in it opened the gates for their allies from the inside and allowed them to attack."

Sabios sighed. "While I will not deny interest in this story-I myself am rather fascinated by military tactics-What does it have to do with the matter at hand?"

Ben grinned. "You're not the only one who can be deceiving, chump. For all you know you might have been tricked just now."

"What are you- Sabios froze in mid-sentence. He looked at the Stylers as they glowed. "What is- The gadgets flashed, blinding him and he felt a grip on his wrists, making him drop both of them.

"Surprise, jerk!" Ami kicked Sabios in the shin making him scream. Then Takumi punched him in the face, knocking him back, onto his rear.

Sabios looked up in shock. "What the-How did you-?!"

Takumi looked up. "Sic em guys!"

Sabios looked above them to see Rapidmon and Lillymon.

"Golden Triangle!"

"Flower Cannon!"

Rapidmon fired a green laser that impacted near Sabios sending him hurling and screaming into a tree. The blast radios from Lillymon's shot knocked one of his Steelhead away. Both Digimon aimed for the last one but he held Ravio in front of him.

Just then a bright light appeared near Ravio. The boy saw his friend appear near him. "Celebi?! Are you under a spell?"

"Bii!" Celebi's light grew brighter before disappearing with Ravio.

Sabios sat up and stared at where the boy once was. "I didn't even do anything…"

"Of course, you didn't moron." Ben smirked as Celebi reappeared behind him and Ravio. "Did you really think we didn't plan this out?"

Sabios got up and glared. "Celebi! How dare you steal my precious hostage! Argh! I'll just take care of you all, then!" Both his Steelhead got up.

Takumi scoffed as he and Ami tossed the Rangers their Stylers. "Yeah right, you sore loser. You three nut jobs against all of us? Not likely."

"You fools! I too had this planned out! I have Steelheads all over the forest gathering here now! It is you who is outnumbered!"

"Is that so?" a young girl's voice asked from a distance.

"The one to leave the stage…is you, Sabios!"

Sabios turned around and was shocked to see the Forrest and Fire Captains approach from behind. With them were Yuuko, Yuugo and Fei with Tangrowth, Tyranatar, RizeGreymon, Datamon and CannonBeemon.

Takumi grinned. "So, what took you guys? Stopped for ancient Oblivian takeout?"

"Is that a thing here?" Yuuko asked.

Yuugo chuckled. "Sorry about that. We didn't want to attack them with Ravio in their grasp."

"Without a hostage you're just worthless trash." Fei grinned at the terrified Sabios. "I'm gonna enjoy takinin' you out!"

"Hey, save some of him for the rest of us." Then from the east Arata, and Nokia walked over to them with the Ice and Thunder captains. They were with Infermon, MetalGreymon, WereGarurumon, Abomasnow, and Electivire.

Flegos glared at Sabios. "Using a child as a shield…how dreadful of you!"

Nokia folded her arms. "Yeah, shame on you, creep! We thought the TRUE captains should teach you a lesson!"

"We four are not the only ones enraged." Pagos added.

The Pokemon around them roared. The Digimon took aim at Sabios. "So, you want to surrender now?" Arata grinned. "Please say no, we brought all these Digimon and Pokemon to beat on you with! And all those Steelhead losers you brought along were hardly a warm up!"

"Look! Sabios, what are you going to do now?" Dasios asked.

Sabious growled. "How humiliating…! I'll retreat for now by using my armor's power." His hands glowed purple. "But first…"

"Think we'll just let you run after all you did!?" Takumi sprinted towards him with Ami.

"Takumi! Ami! Wait!" Rapidmon flew towards them with Lillymon close behind.

"A little something to remember me by!" Sabios held his hands out and two purple embers flew into Takumi and Ami's chests, making them stumble back.

"Ack!"

"Eek!"

Both of them looked at themselves and felt unharmed. But there was this…strange feeling building up inside of them. Takumi looked up at him. "What did you- Sabios snapped his fingers, and black fire spread around Takumi and Ami as they both grasped their chests in intense pain. "Guh! GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"

"Ahh! KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

"Takumi! Ami!" Rapidmon and Lillymon landed near them as they fell to the ground writhing in pain.

Ben glared at Sabios. "What did you do to them?!"

"Until we meet again." Sabios held his hands together and chanted before he and his Steelhead disappeared in a bright light.

"Wait! Sabios!" Ben ran towards them, but by the time he got near the light it disappeared. "Dang it!"

Summer ran to the downed Sleuths. "Takumi! Ami!" The others ran over to them. There were twitching with their eyes squeezed shut and their hands at their chests.

"What happened to them?!" Ravio panicked.

"What's going on?!" Arata asked. "Takumi! Ami! Say something!"

"Wh-what do we do?!" Nokia asked. "They're in pain!"

"We need to get them to safety! Now!" Dasios said. "Tangrowth!"

"Electivire!"

Both the Forrest and Thunder Captains' Pokemon walked over and gently picked up Takumi and Ami in their arms before everyone ran back towards Cocona Plaza.


Kira hugged Ravio. "Ravio!"

"Kira! Tanvir! I'm so sorry for making you worried!"

"Hey, it's not your fault Kira and Yuuko are so gullible." Arata chuckled.

"That was uncalled for." Yuuko glared.

Kira didn't care about Arata's remark. She was just happy Ravio returned safely. "…I see that story in the letter about you being injured was just a lie. I'm glad though. Wait…Ravio? Did you hurt yourself?"

Ravio looked at himself. "Oh, this? I was biting my lip the whole time Sabios was talking to me so his spell wouldn't work on me!"

Ben chuckled. "If I had to listen to the old man rant for so long, I'd be biting my lip too, if it meant getting my mind off the migraine."

"Ha! Ravio, you are one tough as nails kid, ya know that?" Fei smirked. "Pretty smart too."

"Except the decision you made to go to the forest alone at a time like this." Kira said. "That's not being brave, understand?"

"Bii…" Celebi looked sadly at Ravio who hung his head.

Kira sighed. "Someday, Ravio, when you obtain true wisdom and courage, I believe you can be as great as the Pokemon Rangers."

"Great? Me? Heehee…You really think so?" Ravio looked at the Rangers. "Can I become like you two?"

"I can easily see it." Ben smiled. "Courage and stupidity are a delicate balance. It's important to remember that. But being a Ranger isn't just about being smart or brave. There are other qualities you must have."

Summer bent over to get at eye level with the boy and smiled. "And you have the most important of all of them! A strong connection to Pokemon!"

Ravio smiled and looked at his best friend. "What do you think, Celebi?"

"Bi!" The Pokemon flew around him happily.

"Well now that saving Ravio is off our to do list that just leaves two more things to take care of." Keramon said. "Getting his old man back to normal and smacking Sabios down once and for all!"

"Too bad we lost two of our big guns." Fei muttered.

Just then Nokia and Yuugo returned. "How are they?" Summer asked.

Yuugo sighed. "Unconscious. Both of them."

Nokia looked down with her hands clasped together. "Takumi…Ami…It's just like before…what if…what if they don't wake up this time?!"

"Relax. They will." Arata said. "I know it. They always make it back, don't they?" he added, trying to smile.

"The Wise Woman, Forest Captain and two of his best medics are doing everything they can for them." Yuugo said. "Let's believe in them."

"What about the other captains?" Tanvir asked.

"They went back to their temples, to try to clean up the mess Sabios made." Agumon replied.

"I see."

"So, it's just the seven of us for taking on the Dark Temple, huh?" Summer asked.

"The Dark Temple is the last one before the Light Temple." Kira said.

"We won't even need to go there if we find Sabios and pound him into the dirt in the Dark Temple." Fei said.

Arata nodded. "I'm with you. I won't forgive him for hurting two of my pals and toying with people's lives."

Ben nodded. "Then let's go in there and get him. This one's for Takumi and Ami!"

"RIGHT!"


And with that, two more temples to go, but the last one will probably be two chapter tops, so I'd say we're in the home stretch of this arc. And now we have my perisomal least temple in the game. Will Ben and the others fare better then me despite being down two Cyber Sleuths? Find out next week!
