It's Saturday 4th March 2000, 7 months since Tai Kamiya, Matt Ishida, Sora Takenouchi, Izzy Izumi, Joe Kido, Mimi Tachikawa, Takeru "TK" Takaishi and Kari Kamiya's adventure in the Digital World. Life went back to normal sometime after Myotismon's invasion of the real world but now Izzy has spotted a Digimon on the internet, infected with a virus before it hatched from its egg. So it looks like the Digi-destined are gonna come out of retirement to face this new challenge, if only most of them weren't so busy right now. We now go to Tai's apartment.
Kari (Narration): Across town, Tai and another Digidestined Sora were facing their own problems, a sort of...lovers quarrel.
Unfortunately, Kari is right; Sora Takenouchi is in a foul mood. She walks by a couple of kids playing ball and stops to stare at Tai's apartment building. It was her birthday last Sunday and a certain present she got from her crush Tai Kamiya made her really upset. What that present was, we'll find out soon but for now it seems she's avoiding the Child of Courage and ignoring his attempts at apologizing, forcing Tai to use email after Sora finally unblocked it.
Tai is in his father's room, using his old man's computer to send his apology email to his crush.
Tai: "Dear Sora, I'm sorry about what happened. I haven't felt this bad since the time I accidentally threw up in your hat and didn't tell you about it before you put it on. I know our relationship has been a little stormy lately, you say you love thundershowers so what's a few raindrops between friends. Love Tai" Tai gets in a panic when he realizes what he just put in. "Love", I mean "From"…I mean… He leans on the chair groaning. Suddenly his nosy sister Kari Kamiya pipes up from behind.
Kari: Who're you writing to Tai?
Tai turns in surprise and in the process switches "From" to "Love" by accident. He tries to cover up the screen.
Tai: It's just an email joke! What're you doing in here, anyway Kari?
Kari: I wanted to show you my new dress; I'm going to a birthday party. Kari holds out a present wrapped in yellow paper and a pink ribbon. I got my friend a pink power ranger.
Kari (Narration): My brother and I had a give and take relationship. I would give and he would take.
As she narrates, Tai attempts to snatch the present away in an attempt to look inside but Kari playfully avoids him.
Tai: Give me!
Kari: Too slow!
Tai: Give me it!
Kari: Sorry!
Tai: Let go!
Kari: Next time!
Tai gives up and turns back to the computer with his hands behind his head as if he's not interested.
Tai: Ah, who cares?
Kari ran up to screen and grabs the mouse.
Kari: If you wanna send an email you have to click this. Click! She clicks the send button, sending it to Sora and it still had "Love" in it.
She makes a dash for the door while Tai could only stare at the screen in shock and horror and turns to her sister in fury.
Tai: I wasn't gonna send that letter!
Kari pokes her head.
Kari: Then what did you write it for?
Tai: Oh…go to your party!
Kari: Okay. She pouts before she takes off. She may be an angel but she's got quite a mischievous side.
Tai moans as a chibi Gojira like monster holding a letter walks from one house to another.
Tai: I can't believe Sora's gonna read my letter.
Seconds later, the Gojira was walking back with the letter, looking sad.
Tai: Wait a minute, unable to deliver. He furiously grabs the table and shakes. I can't believe she's not gonna read my letter! You try to tell a girl you're sorry and your computer sets you down!
He shouts just as his chair slid from under him and falls on the floor.
It's Digi-time again (Tri)
Sora Takenouchi walks by some screens and children wearing yellow helmets. She stops in front of a mirror and takes a look at her hair and hat, deep in thought. Eventually she shrugs it off and heads for home but she misses the jelly like digimon appearing on the screen.
Joe Kido is at his Saturday school right now, making it their early to avoid being for his exam. Though it seems he may have gone a little overboard because he's there two hours early and is sitting on his desk after registering, bored as he reads his textbook.
As for Mimi Tachikawa, something's not right. She got mail and gifts from everyone but nobody has bothered picking them up. Is she even home?
Izzy Izumi is desperately running sprinting to Tai's place while carrying his laptop.
Matt Ishida and Takeru Takaishi 'TK' are watching baseball on TV in their Grandmother's house. The old and senile women give them some food which TK is delighted to have but Matt doesn't seem as fond. Matt notices that one of the scores has gone whack and is increasing rapidly.
Kari Kamiya and her friends stand in front of her birthday friend Senri's door. Kari pushes the button and the doorbell rings. The door opens to reveal Senri and her mother.
Kari & friends: Surprise! They hold out their presents and she becomes giddy with excitement.
Tai Kamiya opens up the fridge after giving up trying to send the email and his mother Yuuko is placing the groceries on the table.
…
Tai: Mom, can I make a complaint?
Yuuko: Mm-hmm.
Tai: While Kari's eating birthday cake right now and all we have is leftover tofu.
Yuuko: I can make you a cake Tai, hand me an egg please. Tai is regretting what he asked.
Tai: No…
Yuuko: I needed to use up the rest of the wheat germ anyway.
The doorbell rings after Tai picks up the egg.
Yuuko: You get the door and I'll start on that cake.
Tai obeys and opens the door to reveal Izzy who's in a state of urgency and desperation.
Tai: Izzy, you're all sweaty, what's wrong?
Izzy: Well it's…about the egg.
Tai: Huh?
Izzy: The egg has already hatched. In response, Tai looks at the one he's holding. Not that egg! A Digi-egg!
They're in Tai's room having an ice-cream and looks at the new Digimon on Izzy's laptop.
Izzy: My Digimon Analyzer doesn't even recognize him.
Tai: Looks like a cross between a jellyfish and a contact lens. Izzy takes a look at the email address.
Izzy: I think its part Digimon, part Virus.
Tai: A Digimon with a virus so?
Izzy: Are you kidding? If it stays on the internet it could wipe out all technology as we know it.
Tai: If it just hatched, how do you know about all this stuff?
Izzy: This kid I met on the internet emailed me, his name is Willis and he lives in Colorado. I don't know where he gets his information. He's smart though; he's only in elementary school but he's already taken classes at Colorado State.
Tai lowers his eyebrows in jealousy.
Tai: So what, I'm in junior high school and I take classes at junior high school.
A beeping occurs and they look to see the jellyfish digivolve into a creature with 5 pointy toes. It now looks like a cross between a jellyfish, contact lens and a hand.
Izzy: Look, the jellyfish digivolved!
Tai: He's sending an email. A new window appears. It says "I'm hungry!" What, am I supposed to call for a pizza?
The Digimon was in a maze of letters, gobbling them up as if he was Pac-Man.
Izzy: Oh no! He's eating computer data! And when he's done in this buffet line he's gonna look for a database with more food.
Tai: More food! What does he expect to find, a grocery store!
(Time Skip)
Yuuko is at Tai's door with two shakes on a tray.
Yuuko: Tai, I made beef jerky shake!
Tai: No, thanks Mom!
He opens the door and squeezes past his mother.
Yuuko: Where are you going?
Tai: We're going to use Dad's computer!
Izzy runs past to.
Yuuko: Don't you want your shake!
Izzy runs back and takes a sip out of one of them much to her delight.
Yuuko: I'm glad someone appreciates my recipes.
Izzy: Thanks Mrs Kamiya!
He catches up with Tai who's in Susumu's room carefully trying to move his computer.
Tai: We gotta be careful with my Dad's stuff!
Izzy: Get outta my way. Izzy puts down his bag and laptop. He picks up the computer without caring about making a mess. A Digimon is eating the internet and you're worried about a few books!
Tai: But my Dad likes his mess where it is?
Izzy: We'll have more capabilities if we network our computers together.
He turns both computers on and gets to work in connecting them.
Tai: Hey Izzy, why don't we just call up the Digimon on the screen and then hit delete. Izzy turns to him in annoyance.
Izzy: Don't you think I tried that!
Tai: If this thing is so dangerous maybe we should call someone important like the principal or Bill Gates or something.
Izzy: They won't listen. That kid Willis warned his internet carrier about the new Digimon, they said "great, let's sign him up and give him 50 free hours." Izzy finishes connecting to the internet. Alright, we're online!
Unfortunately, when he brings up an image of the Digimon it's revealed to be much bigger. It now resembled a normal jellyfish with a round head and long tendrils. It also had two arms and its antennas were longer. Its body is mostly purple and it has soulless black eyes.
Tai: He digivolved again?!
Jellyfish Digimon: My name is Keramon.
Izzy: I think he's at the Rookie level.
Now Tai begins to sweat and take the situation seriously.
Tai: This soon? He's digivolving too quickly!
Izzy: He's probably at a fast food website.
Tai: Now what?
Izzy: Nothing now.
Tai: You mean we have to sit here and watch that thing eat the world at a house and home page. He has head down in depression. I wish Agumon was here to help us. Noise blares out of Izzy's laptop.
Agumon: Tai…
Tai: I can almost hear him now.
Agumon: You can hear me now.
Tai: It's like he was here.
Agumon: I am here.
Tai gets up in a rush, realizing he is hearing his partner's voice.
Tai: Agumon! Where are you?! I can barely hear you, take me off speaker phone!
Izzy: It's a transmission! Tai walks over to Izzy on his laptop. From the Digital World!
A new window reveals chibi version of Gennai and Tai's partner Agumon who jumps with joy at the sight of his human partner again.
Agumon: Tai! Tai! Tai is overjoyed.
Tai: Agumon.
Izzy: And he's with Gennai!
Gennai: It's been a long time.
Izzy's partner Tentomon appears from a cloud of pink smoke.
Tentomon: Don't forget me!
Izzy: Tentomon!
Tai: Who else is there?
A door opens up and the other Digimon come out to line up with Agumon and Tentomon. A new Digimon in red and white armor was with their partners. This new Digimon is ShineGreymon, a mega level Light Dragon Digimon.
Gabumon: Gabumon!
Biyomon: Biyomon!
Gomamon: Gomamon!
Palmon: Palmon!
Patamon: Patamon!
Gatomon: Gatomon!
Gennai: We need to talk. Something's threatening the internet.
Izzy: We know; the Digimon's already causing major problems in our world.
Gennai: I'm not sure if it is a Digimon.
Agumon: But it is dangerous; the evil Dark Masters were cupcakes compared to this guy.
Tai: That's it then, let's do it!
Gabumon: We found a way to enter the internet.
Patamon: We'll help you guys because you're the best friends we've ever had.
Biyomon: And you helped us save our world, so now it's our turn.
Tentomon: What better way to express friendship than to save your world.
Tai and Izzy are touched by the risk their Digimon pals are willing to take just to save their world.
Izzy: Tentomon…
Tentomon: Please don't get so emotional.
Tai: Thanks a lot guys! You won't be alone; we'll be right here on the computer. Izzy, Digivice.
Izzy: Izzy smugly brings it out. I'm one step ahead of you Tai.
Tai grins and grabs his goggles.
Tai: Our Digivices will help you Digivolve and together we'll squash that bug! He straps on his goggles as a sign of his determination.
The Digimon cheer with joy. A couple of transporters appear and Agumon and Tentomon head inside.
Gennai: It'll take a minute for Agumon and Tentomon to get on the internet; my motor's older than I am.
Tai: I'll call the other Digi-destined so their Digimon can help too.
Tai goes over to the living room.
Moments later, he's on the telephone. The first one he's calling is Joe.
Tai: Hi, this is Tai Kamiya; can I speak to Joe please? Speaking is heard on the other side. A test?
Joe is still slumping on his desk, bored and wishing the clock would go faster.
Tai: He's the only kid I know who'd volunteer for Saturday school! Well, when he comes home or when you get a phone call from him can you tell Joe to get to my house straight away; it's an emergency and we really need him.
Joe is getting even more bored now.
Joe: Good grief, at this rate I'll be a wrinkly old man. First I'm late for my last test and now I'm too early for this test. I don't think there's a single teacher here yet.
Speaking of teachers, a man walks by and is surprised when he spots.
Man: Excuse me, may I help you?
Joe gets up from his desk with his usual nerves taking over.
Joe: Uh…my name is Joe Kido; I'm here for the test.
Man: A little early aren't we?
Joe: Well…uh…you see I was late for my last test so I tried coming earlier, though I think I may have overdid it a bit.
Man: I can see that, though you do seem to be quite enthusiastic about this. He smiles and sighs. I suppose since your here it wouldn't hurt to let you take the test early.
Joe throws his hands up.
Joe: Oh no sir, its fine; I-
Man: Relax, it'll be fine, we've had plenty of cases like this before so it's no issue. Here's the test paper. The teacher hands out the test paper to Joe. Good luck.
Joe takes a deep breath and sits down. He immediately gets out his pen and pencil and gets to work.
Since Joe is unavailable, Tai attempts to call Matt and TK instead.
Tai: Hi, is Matt or T.K there? Speaking is heard on the other side. They're visiting their Grandmother in the country? Do you know her phone number? More speaking is heard. Thanks. He hangs up and dials in the phone number.
Izzy: Hey Tai. Izzy was by the table while Yuuko was looking through the fridge. Any luck yet?
Yuuko: Would you like a glass of potato juice Izzy?
Izzy: Great, I'd love some.
Tai: Tai finishes dialing and prays for someone to pick up. Be there, be there, be there, be there, be there, be there, be- ooh! Someone picks up. Hello there!
The one on the phone in Shimanne is Matt and TK's grandmother Kinu. Tai speaks on the other line.
Tai: This is Tai.
Kinu: You're selling ties?
Tai: No, my name is Tai. I'm looking for Matt or TK.
Kinu: That's a coincidence; those are my grandkids names.
Tai: That's great, are they there?
Kinu: Mm-hmm.
Tai: Right now?
Kinu: Mm-hmm.
Tai: Can I talk to them?
Kinu: I'd love to talk to them too, they're here visiting.
Tai: Please, I need to speak to them right away!
Kinu: Okay I'll tell them. Unfortunately the senile old lady hangs up by accident before turning to the two brothers. Kids!
Back in Odaiba, Tai has a strange look of annoyance on his face and he angrily glares at the phone.
Tai: I…can't…take this…
Izzy drinks more of Yuuko's beef jerky shakes.
Yuuko: You know Izzy; I can never get Tai to try out any of my recipes.
Izzy: I think they taste great.
Yuuko: Wanna try my spinach cookies.
Tai: I've got Mimi's machine!
Okay, not only has no one bothered to pick up the mail but Mimi's house is completely empty. She has stuffed animals placed neatly on her bed but her voicemail can be heard.
Mimi: "Hi, it's Mimi, I'm so glad you called, let's get together for lunch, leave a very short message after the beep." The beep occurs but then happens again a second later before Tai could even speak, much to his frustration.
Tai: He groans. That girl loves to talk.
Izzy looks over to Tai.
Izzy: Who did you try to call just now?
Tai: Mimi, but she's not answering.
Izzy: Oops, guess I forgot to tell you…
Tai: What?
Izzy: Mimi's on vacation.
Tai runs over and bangs his hands on the table.
Tai: What!? Vacation!? Where!?
Yuuko brings out a postcard from her pocket and shows it.
Yuuko: Oh that reminds me.
Tai: Huh?
Yuuko: You got this postcard in the mail from Mimi.
Tai: What?! Tai runs over in shock and snatches the postcard from her Mom. Izzy walks over to take a look as well.
Izzy: What does it say?
Tai: She's on vacation…In Hawaii! Oh…Mimi…
In the beach of Hawaii, the sky is beautiful and the sun gives a heavenly shine for everyone to enjoy. People are sunbathing, swimming and making sandcastle but the one who's really having the time of her life is Mimi who's saying what she wrote in her postcard as she enjoys sunbathing.
Mimi: Hawaii is paradise! I don't have a care in the world and I'm wishing you were HERE! She laughs in enjoyment. That is so Mimi.
Tai has another comical strange look on his face and Yuuko and Izzy just sweat after reading the postcard.
Tai: Great, just great…
Izzy: Yep, that's definitely Mimi alright. Only she could write something that carefree. But who cares, just phone her using her cellphone.
Tai: Yeah, but I don't know her new cellphone number. Izzy grins.
Izzy: I do. She gave it to me before she left. Here. He gets out a small paper and offers it to Tai who exclaims with delight.
Tai: Izzy, what would I ever do without you!? He takes the paper and runs back to the phone. He quickly dials in the number and prays Mimi picks up this time. Come on…pick up.
Mimi continues having the time of her life in Hawaii.
Mimi: I am so envious of everyone who lives here, Nashville is great and all but it's nothing compared to this. I wish Matt was here with me; it'd be so romantic for the both of us. The sun's feels good and everyone's happy. I'm not leaving this chair for anything.
She couldn't be any more wrong, especially when she hears her cellphone ring in her bag. She takes it out and answers the call.
Mimi: Hello, this is Mimi speaking.
Tai: Mimi, is that you? Mimi is delighted when she recognizes the voice.
Mimi: Tai! It's so good to hear from you! Did you get my postcard?
Tai: Yeah, I did. It was very…you. But anyway, listen we got a serious problem. Mimi doesn't like the sound of this. There's a bug on the internet and it's causing all sort of havoc. Now Mimi's confused.
Mimi: So, what does that have to do with me? Just get Izzy or someone important to solve it, besides I'm not leaving this chair for any reason.
Tai: Not even if I told you that this bug is actually an evil Digimon infected with a virus.
Mimi's eyes widen in shock and she lifts herself up from her chair in surprise.
Mimi: What?! A Digimon?!
Tai: Yeah, and it's eating data as if he's having a buffet. At this rate, technology will be wiped out and we'll be living in the Dark Ages, or worse.
Mimi: I'd love to help, but if you got my postcard then you know…
Tai: Don't worry; you don't need to come back to Odaiba. Gennai contacted us and our Digimon are gonna go into the internet to squash this bug before he does more damage.
Mimi gets serious and forsakes pleasure for the safety of her world.
Mimi: What do I need to do?
Tai: Do you have your Digivice?
Mimi: It's in my bag.
Tai: Find a computer, any computer as long as it has a webcam. Once you do then call Izzy and he'll tell you what to do.
Mimi: Alright. Luckily, I'm good friends with the hotel manager's daughter. She'll give me just what we need. I'm going there right now.
Tai: Thanks Mimi, I owe you one. Sorry to cut in on your vacation. Mimi smiles.
Mimi: Don't worry about it; you guys are my friends; I'm happy to help you out. Plus, it means I'll get to see Palmon again. I'll call you soon. She quickly hangs up and checks for her Digivice. Well, so much for not leaving this chair. She puts her Digivice back, grabs her bag and makes a dash for the hotel but not before telling her parents she was leaving for a bit.
Tai puts down the phone and breathes a sigh of relief.
Tai: Okay, one down.
Yuuko is mixing in the eggs and while Izzy brings out the flour.
Yuuko: You're a real natural in the kitchen, just like me. Now Tai has to phone his sister.
Tai: Mom, I need to get a hold of Kari right way, did she take her cellphone with her.
Izzy: So do I have enough of this stuff?
Yuuko: Beats me, it's the first time I've used flour to make a cake.
Tai: Mom! Yuuko turns to Tai.
Yuuko Of course she has it, in case of emergencies.
Tai: Emergency. He rummages for his Mom's number and picks the phone up. What does she think this is?
At Senri's house, the birthday girl is in front of her cake and her friends are right there for her.
Kari's friends: Happy Birthday!
Noriko: Make a wish! Blow 'em up! Senri takes a deep breath but just as he was about to blow, the phone rings and they to Kari who picks it up. Call them back.
Kari desperately whispers.
Kari: Tai, this isn't a good time, they're about to blow out the candles.
Tai: Who cares about the candles? I need you to come home right away!
Kari: But I can't come home! You don't understand, the magician's coming over later and I already volunteered to be sawed in half.
Tai: Tai is not having it. Forget the magician! I need you to come home in one piece, not two halves; besides it's an emergency!
Kari: I'm sure it's not that big of an emergency, Tai.
Tai: Yes it is! I need all the Digi-destined here! Gatomon can't Digivolve without you!
Kari widens her eyes and speaks loudly.
Kari: Gatomon! This drew the other girls' attention and give looks of confusion. Kari notices and nervously laughs. Sorry, could you excuse me for a second! She quickly goes into the bathroom and speaks to Tai. What do you mean!? Tai what's going on?
Tai: An evil Digimon is on internet causing hundreds of problems! Izzy and I need help; Agumon and Tentomon can't fight alone. Kari is horrified to hear this.
Kari: Why didn't you say that in the first place! I'll try to come but I don't know how to leave the party…yet…
Tai: Do you really need to ask that? Just lie, make up an excuse.
Kari: Kari gets anxious and panicky. What?! Lie?! But I hate lying, there has to be another way.
Tai: Always the angel, aren't you…look, just tell them I got sick or fell down the stair and you have to go to the doctors to see me.
Kari: But Tai?!
Tai: Tai is getting increasingly frustrated. Kari, if you ever wanna see your toys again, get home right away and help, please! Gatomon and everyone else need you!
Kari: Kari groans anxiously. Why did this Digimon have to attack today? I really don't wanna go, but at the same time I don't wanna let Gatomon down. She finally comes to her senses and gives in. Okay, I'm on my way. But can we at least try to make this as quickly as possible so I can make it back in time for the magician and cake?
Tai: Yeah, yeah, yeah! Just come over and help us and we'll try and get this done real quickly. If we can do that, then you can go back to your party as if nothing ever happened.
Kari: Ok, that's fine.
Tai: Thanks sis.
Kari hangs up and went back to living room. She gives an awkward and nervous expression and attempts to cover it up with a laugh.
Kari: I'm really sorry everyone, I have to get back home; something really important just came up. She quickly bows. I'll be back as soon as I can, I promise! She quickly puts down the phone, heads for the door and puts on her shoes but not before giving them one last look. All of the girls are confused. Thanks for inviting me, bye!
Kari exits before they could say anything so she wouldn't have to make an excuse. She makes a dash for her home but she's in a bad mood.
Kari: Just my luck! An evil Digimon threatens to destroy the whole world on the same day my friend's birthday party is happening. I really hope they aren't mad but right now Gatomon and Tai need me.
Tai breathes another sigh of relief.
Tai: Okay, now all that's left is…He was dreading this moment. Hey, Izzy! Izzy stops pouring out flour. Kari's coming and Mimi's finding a computer but I can't get anybody else on the phone. I want you to call Sora for me.
Izzy is clearly confused; he doesn't know about Tai and Sora's dilemma.
Izzy But you and she are best friends, plus you're both in love; it makes more sense for you to call.
Tai: Just do it! He tosses the phone and Izzy barely manages to catch it. Izzy dials the number and Tai sits down in a bad mood at the thought of Sora. Yuuko turns to her sun.
Yuuko: Are more friends coming over, I'll make three beans salad.
Tai: Nobody's coming over Mom.
Yuuko: Oh…that's alright; I only have two beans anyway.
A few moments later, Toshiko is on the phone with Izzy.
Toshiko: I'm sorry, Sora's not home but I'll tell her to call Tai's house as soon as she gets back. Speak of the devil, Sora herself opens the door and comes in, taking off her sneakers. Oh, hold on, she just walked in. I'll put her right on.
Izzy hears everything being said over the phone.
Toshiko: Sora, I think Tai wants to speak to you.
Sora: I'm not home!
Toshiko But I already told him you're here.
Sora: Then make something up! I don't care what you tell him!
Toshiko: But Sora, I- And with that, Sora storms off into her room and slams the door. I'm sorry, but you have the wrong number, goodbye.
She hangs up and Izzy looks at Tai whose drinking coke he got from the fridge Yuuko merely watches while mixing the egg.
Izzy: Sora said she's not home. Tai scoffs. Did you two have an argument?
Tai: None of your business.
Izzy: You must've been a real jerk if she doesn't wanna talk to ya. This sets Tai off and his cheeks become hot. He glares at the Child of Knowledge.
Tai: I didn't do anything! Izzy realizes he's stepped into dangerous territory.
Izzy: I meant that in a good way. Tai gets up in a furious manner.
Tai: I can't believe she's still mad at me! This whole thing started over a lousy hairclip! Grr! His entire face becomes red and it looks like steams coming out of his ears. Give me that piece of junk! Izzy yelps when Tai snatches the phone and he begins dialling in fury.
Yuuko: Uh oh. Yuuko can tell this is about to get ugly.
Tai: So you wanna play hardball, huh? Well two can play at that game! The phone rings and Toshiko gets on the line.
Toshiko: Hello.
Tai: This is Tai Kamiya! Don't bother making excuses, I know Sora's there and I won't take no for an answer! She speaks. Well don't hang up, If she doesn't pick up right now, tell her I said "Fine! I'll tell Biyomon you don't care about her anymore!" I'll wait!
Izzy: Mrs Kamiya, what…did I just witness?
Yuuko: What you're witnessing Izzy is a lover's quarrel.
Sora is sitting in her room with her laptop on her lap. She checks to see if she got any new emails and twiddles with a hairpin with a flower decoration it.
Sora: He better have written me.
Laptop: Greetings. You have no new mail. Ok. Sora clutches the hairpin tightly.
Sora: No! Not okay! Stupid Tai! She slams her laptop shut and begins shouting to herself. I'm so upset with him right now and he's got some nerve calling me after the way he insulted me! I've spent all week avoiding him at school; I don't even wanna talk to that jerk! Sora calms down when he hears a knock on the door. Come in.
Toshiko comes in with the phone.
Toshiko: Sora, Tai is on the phone. He wants to speak to you. Sora groans in annoyance.
Sora: I told you to tell him I'm not here! I don't wanna talk to him right now. Toshiko becomes worried; she is fully aware of the argument.
Toshiko: Sora, can't you let go of this ridiculous argument. Besides, Tai knows you're here and he told me to tell you if you don't pick up, "Fine, I'll tell Biyomon you don't care about her anymore!"
Upon hearing this threat, Sora becomes outraged.
Sora: WHAT!? She snatches the phone and begins yelling at Tai, prompting her mother to leave her alone for a bit. You wouldn't dare!
Tai: Hey, don't be such a drama queen; this was the only way I could get you to pick up.
Sora: You know what; it might sound like I'm hanging up!
Tai: No, no! Don't hang up Sora; this is a Digimon-related emergency. Sora widens her eyes in shock when she hears the word "digimon" but replaces it with anger.
Sora: This better not be a joke Tai!
Tai: It isn't! I swear! There's an evil Digimon on the internet and it's eating up data as if it were buffet, causing all sorts of problem. Gennai contacted us and is sending our Digimon to fight it on the internet but we need everyone's help!
Now Sora is confused.
Sora: I don't get it.
Tai: Look, Izzy will explain it better. For now how about we call a truce and put this stupid fight behind us for the greater good. Please I'm begging you to believe me Sora; I'm telling the truth. I'm putting my Crest on the line here!
Sora: You don't need to do that. Fine, let's call a truce for now. I'll come over to your place right away.
Tai: Thanks, and sorry about the threat earlier.
Sora: It's okay, but I'm still mad at you about the stupid thing you said last week.
Tai becomes red with anger again as Izzy and Yuuko watch in concern.
Tai: I can't believe you're still mad at me Sora! This whole thing started over one lousy hairclip!
Now Sora becomes comically red with anger too.
Sora: You were the one who insulted me you big jerk!
Tai: I wasn't insulting you, I was…you know what, forget about it. Just come over.
Sora: Fine…Stupid Tai. She hangs up and runs out of her room in a hurry. Mom, I'm going out! I'll be back in a bit.
Toshiko: Okay!
Sora quickly puts on her sneakers and runs out.
Tai puts down the phone in a huff.
Tai: Sora's coming too. But she called me Stupid Tai…yep, its official, she's still angry.
Izzy: You know you really need to resolve this ridiculous argument.
Tai: Shut up Izzy. Yuuko continues mixing the eggs.
Yuuko: So is it true there's a Digimon on the internet.
Tai: Huh?! Tai didn't notice that her mother was listening.
Yuuko: You two weren't being very secretive about it and considering who you've been trying to call, I figured that it had something to do with Digimon.
Izzy: Yeah, I guess we weren't doing a good job in keeping it a secret. Tai gives Yuuko a guilty look.
Tai: Sorry Mom, I just didn't want you to worry but I have to do this. His mother merely smiles.
Yuuko: Don't worry about it, I understand, this is too important for me to say no. Besides, I know you'll be fine, just be careful, okay.
Tai: I will. Tai smiles at his Mom.
Yuuko: Words can't express how proud I am of you and your sister, son.
Tai: Thanks Mom. By the way, can you see Sora and Kari out the window?
Yuuko: Yuuko looks out the window and spots the girls running towards the building. Yes, they're both approaching the building right now!
Tai: That's great. He turns to Izzy. Izzy, contact Gennai and tell him to send Biyomon and Gatomon into the internet to join up with Agumon and Tentomon.
Izzy: On it! Izzy gets up and runs over to Susumu and Yuuko's room.
Yuuko: I'll make you some more beef jerky shakes. You can't save the world on an empty stomach. Tai is uncomfortable with his mother's recipes
Tai: Uh…sure Mom.
Just then, the door opened and Kari and Sora walk in.
Kari: Hi Mom, I'm home!
Sora: Good morning Mrs Kamiya!
Yuuko: Welcome back Kari, hello Sora. After taking their shoes off, Sora stops the moment she sees Tai. The two of them stare at each other uncomfortably and awkwardly. It's obvious from this point there is high tension between the both of them and are trying to be formal without speaking about the issue.
Sora: Oh…very long and awkward pause. Hi, Tai.
Tai: Um…hey Sora…how's your day been?
Sora: Fine. You?
Tai: Lame. Kari can't help but butt in.
Kari: Wait, you two are talking to each other now?
They both glance at Kari before turning back to each other with cold expressions and then turn their backs with their arms crossed, scoffing. Luckily, Izzy stops another argument from taking.
Izzy: Sora, Kari, glad you could make it. Kari and Sora smile at Izzy.
Sora: It's great to see you Izzy.
Kari: Yeah, so what do we need to know?
Izzy: Well… As Izzy explains the situation, Kari walks over to Tai and tugs on his shirt, grabbing his attention.
Kari: Hey. Are you okay?
Tai: Yeah, I'm fine.
A few minutes later, Miko is standing in front of the computer. She turns when she notices, Tai, Sora, Kari and Izzy (holding a tray of beef jerky shakes) is coming in.
Kari: Miko, get down from there, girl. Miko moves out of the way and they sat down. Izzy gets to work and they intently stare at the computer.
Sora So that's the new Digimon?
Kari: It looks like a cross between a jellyfish and a bug.
Tai: That was my first thought. At any rate, Agumon, Tentomon, Biyomon and Gatomon should be on the internet by now!
Agumon, Tentomon, Biyomon and Gatomon are traveling through a beautiful network of tunnels at high speed.
Tentomon: Does this information super highway have a rest stop, I've gotta go potty!
Agumon: You should've gone before we left, just hold it!
Biyomon: We're almost there!
Gatomon: Come on, let's squash that bug before the world loses its nine lives of technology!
They see their partners who are appearing on hundreds of screen ahead. Sora and Kari are ecstatic to see Biyomon and Gatomon again.
Sora: Biyomon!
Biyomon: Sora!
Kari: Gatomon!
Gatomon: Kari! I've missed you so much!
Kari: I've missed you too!
Biyomon: Sora, I'm so happy to see you again!
Sora: Me too! It's been so long!
Tai: Now that you ladies have said hello, let's get to work. You're gonna need a password!
Izzy: You can use mine to get on the internet! "Prodigious"!
Digimon: Prodigious!
The password is typed in and they entered the internet.
It was a giant room filled with images of gears and Ferris wheels on the wall.
Agumon: So this is what the internet looks like, they need new wall paper.
Gatomon: I think it looks cool.
Tentomon: I hope this doesn't take too long; it's my bath night.
Biyomon: And Agumon and I had dinner plans, right sweetie.
Agumon: You bet we did.
Tai: Focus.
Gatomon: Hey, look I can see him!
Keramon was on the floor of the room eating fax of data.
Izzy: There he is, go get him!
Biyomon: It looks like we got the drop on him.
Tentomon: He doesn't know we're here yet.
Agumon: Let's sneak up on him quietly.
Unfortunately, Tentomon attacks without hesitation.
Tentomon: Super Shocker! He blasts a bolt of electricity and shocks Keramon, messing him up.
Biyomon & Gatomon: Tentomon!
Agumon: That's quietly!?
Biyomon: Spiral Twister! Biyomon fires a green spiral of flame.
Gatomon: Cat Laser! She blasts pink lasers from her eyes and they make a direct hit.
Agumon: Pepper Breath! He blasts 3 balls of flames and they explode on their target.
Keramon turns around silently growling and unscathed.
Tai: Huh? That should've worked but it didn't it!
Gatomon bounces of the wall and blasts off to the bug digimon with her fists clenched and ready.
Gatomon: Lightning Paw!
Keramon decides to fight back and counter.
Keramon: Bug Blaster!
Keramon blasts out energy bullets and Gatomon avoids the first two but the third one hits her paw, blowing off her glove and making her scream in pain. Kari exclaims in shock and worry.
Kari: Gatomon!
Gatomon opens her eyes and continues flying towards the bug with her other paw ready. She vengefully slams her fist into his face and sends him crashing into the wall. Gatomon still feels the pain in her right arm and clenches it in pain while groaning.
Kari: Gatomon, are you alright?
Gatomon: Don't worry, I'm fine.
Energy bullets are fired from the smoke and they strike Gatomon. She screams in pain as she is sent flying up the room but luckily Agumon is there to grab her.
Agumon: You okay?
Gatomon: Yeah, thanks bro.
Tentomon: Look! The smoke clears and Keramon has his back turned.
Biyomon: He isn't hurt at all.
Keramon actually twists his head to the back, disgusting the digimon and the kids.
Tai: My neck just hurts looking at that.
Kari: Gatomon's attack didn't even phase it.
Sora: Hold on, Keramon's sending us an email.
They receive it.
Tai: It says, "So, you like to play games, huh?" We go back to the internet where screens of the kids have appeared. I've got a bad feeling about this Agumon.
Sora: Is he mocking us?
Kari: If this is a game, then it isn't fun.
Sora: It's clear though that we can't beat this creep the way we are now.
Izzy: You'd better Digivolve, all of you, now.
Digivolution theme (Movie)
"Digimon!"
The Digivices beam light high above. Kids who're watching this battle around the whole world are gasping in shock and awe at the digivolution sequence.
Agumon: Agumon Digivolve to…!
Biyomon: Biyomon Digivolve to…!
Tentomon: Tentomon Digivolve to…!
"Digimon, Digital Monsters, Digimon are the Champion!"
"Digimon, Digital Monsters, Digimon are the Champion!"
The kids watch images of Greymon, Birdramon and Kabuterimon appear. Next moment, Agumon, Tentomon and Biyomon are rapidly spinning in their Digi-zone and transform.
Greymon!
Birdramon!
Kabuterimon!
…
One by one, Greymon, Birdramon, Kabuterimon and Gatomon bounce off the wall and make a beeline for Keramon who flying along the floor. Keramon turns and charges up.
Keramon: Bug Blaster!
Keramon blasts out a couple of energy bullets but the 4 Champion level Digimon evade. He may be able to put up a good fight against 1 Champion but he can't do so with 4.
Kabuterimon: Electro Shocker! He blasts out 3 balls of electricity that Keramon barely manages to evade.
Gatomon: Cat Laser! The cat blasts more lasers from her eyes but Keramon dodges again.
Birdramon: Meteor Wing! Birdramon closes her wings and launches a couple of fireballs but once again Keramon avoids getting hit. Fourth time's the charm and he's tired.
ShineGreymon: Glorious Burst! ShineGreymon spread his gigantic wings and fired concentrated light energy.
Greymon: Nova Blast! Greymon spews flames from his mouth and lands a direct hit.
Keramon is damaged in a cloud of smoke and the Digi-destined exclaim with pride.
Sora: Alright! You clobbered him!
Kari: Yay!
Tai: You guys make this stuff look easy! Izzy isn't as enthusiastic.
Izzy: Uh…hold that thought. Something shocking happens.
Keramon: Keramon Digivolve to…Infermon! Keramon's image goes blurry and is replaced by something entirely different.
The smoke clears up to reveal Keramon has digivolved to a red and white spider with 6 legs and he's very angry. The Digi-destined are in disbelief.
Tai: No way, he's Digivolved again!
Sora: How much abuse can that creep take!
Kari: Talk about a growth spurt!
Izzy: I've never seen this before! Now he's at the Champion level like Greymon, Kabuterimon, Birdramon and Gatomon.
Kari: That's okay. It's 4 on 1, right?
Tai: Right, we can still take it!
Greymon and the other Digimon land in the wall and get ready to attack. Infermon turns and snickers. He makes the first move and jumps high into the air.
Greymon: Whoa!
Infermon bounces from the wall and ceiling multiple times. He turns to his opponent and attempts to body slam them. They dodge at the last second and attack.
Greymon: Nova Blast!
Birdramon: Meteor Wing!
Kabuterimon: Electro Shocker!
Gatomon: Cat Laser!
They all launch their attack and make a direct hit, pleasing them.
Greymon: Yeah!
Kabuterimon: Alright!
Birdramon: Good job!
Gatomon: That oughta put his lights out!
The smoke is blown away when Infermon blasts through unscathed much to their shock. He locks in his limbs like a turtle and proceeds to ram into them. Greymon and the others try to launch a flurry of attacks but they bounce of his armour. He flies right past him and Gatomon attempts a physical strike. She blasts off and clenches her paw with her only glove left.
Gatomon: Now you're mine! Lightning Paw!
She slams her fist into spider but all it does is causes her to scream in pain while clutching her wrist.
Kari: Gatomon!
Infermon unlocks one of his limbs and knocks off her other glove before slamming her stomach. It sends her flying back to the others and she screams in pain again. Luckily she's caught by Birdramon.
Birdramon: I've got you Gatomon!
Gatomon: Thanks. She's released but Infermon isn't finished.
Greymon: He's stronger than a Champion!
Infermon unlocks all of his limbs and bounces off the wall.
Infermon: Spider Shooter! He brings out a cannon head from his mouth and blasts 8 deadly bullets.
They all attempt to evade but one by one Birdramon, Kabuterimon and Gatomon get hit and shout in pain.
Greymon: Kabuterimon! Birdramon! Gatomon! Greymon gets hit too and shouts in pain.
The Digi-destined are filled with horror and worry.
Tai: Greymon, no!
Sora: Birdramon!
Kari: Oh no, Gatomon!
Izzy: I think I've got it figured out now. He's bypassed the Champion level and digivolved straight into the Ultimate level! He's too strong for our Digimon now!
Sora: No way! That thing digivolved twice!?
Izzy: He must've devoured more data than we thought!
Kari: Now our Digimon don't stand a chance!
Tai: Then they're just gonna have to Digivolve again!
Kabuterimon: This Digimon is new. We'd better hurry before he gets the idea to attack!
Ultimate Digivolution theme (Movie)
"Digimon!"
Every kid in the world watches Tai, Sora, Izzy and Kari's Digivices turn solid orange, red, purple and pink. They shoot out beams of light that blast through their tags and the Crests of Courage, Love, Knowledge and Light spiral into the air but Infermon had other idea.
Infermon: Not so fast! He grunts and jumps off the wall just as they Digivolve.
Greymon: Greymon Digivolve to…! Greymon's left arm turns into a large metal claw.
Birdramon: Birdramon Digivolve to…! Birdramon is engulfed in flames and her new face emerges.
Kabuterimon: Kabuterimon Digivolve to…! Kabuterimon becomes larger and his head turns into an axe shaped horn.
Gatomon: Gatomon Digivolve to…! Gatomon transforms into a beautiful blonde woman.
"Digimon, Digital Monsters, Digmon are the Champions!"
Infermon is closing in for the kill.
Angewomon! The rest of her garments appear and her helmet attaches.
MegaKabuterimon! His wings combine to form a large shell.
Infermon is closing in.
"Digimon, Digital Monsters, Digmon are the Champions!"
Garudamon! Her right claw emerges from the flames.
MetalGreymon! He sprouts bluish-purple mechanical wings and grows red hair.
Too late.
"Digimon!"
…
The kids gasp in shock.
Izzy: They've gotta Digivolve faster!
Infermon blasts more bullets from his mouth and one by one they make a direct hit. MetalGreymon, MegaKabuterimon, Garudamon and Angewomon all scream in pain. They're covered in cloud of smoke created from the explosion. Infermon laughs sadistically and he crawls into an exit hatch which just opened up. The kids are worried for their Digimon's safety. ShineGreymon followed Infermon down the exit hatch.
Tai: Agumon! Say something!
They're all fine but they're utterly dejected and injured.
Agumon: Don't take me out coach!
Sora: No, Biyomon!
Biyomon: I'm sorry, Sora. He was too strong.
Kari: Gatomon, please say you're alright! Gatomon's gloves are back on.
Gatomon: I'm fine, but my nine lives and my pride aren't.
Izzy: Tentomon!
Tentomon: I'm fine, just one question: Who's Tentomon?
We go back to the real world where the kids are relieved.
Izzy: They'll be okay guys; they just need to rest for a while.
Sora: Kabuterimon was right to worry. That thing attacked us while they were Digivolving!
Kari: Yeah, that was cheating! Though do you think he may have accidentally given Infermon the idea to…? Izzy angrily cuts off.
Izzy: Hey! Don't even go there! That virus planned that out from the beginning, it's not Kabuterimon's fault.
Kari: Kari nods at Izzy. You're right Izzy, I'm sorry.
Izzy: It's okay. He gets on his laptop.
Tai: Tai drops down. I can't believe that 4 Digimon at the Champion level weren't enough. He pounds his fist on the floor. We're never gonna be able to defeat this thing!
Kari attempts to confront her brother and even Sora does so despite the tension between them.
Kari: Hey, don't say that Tai cheer up. It'll be alright.
Sora: Kari's right Tai; you're the first one to say we should never give up.
Tai: You're right, thanks.
Izzy: Check this out; we're getting emails from all over the world.
Tai, Sora and Kari turn in surprise.
Sora: Wait, people were actually watching this?
Izzy: Yeah, here's one from the kid, Willis in America. It says "Izzy, I'm sorry, find a way to slow him down."
Now everyone is really confused.
Kari: Huh?
Tai: What does he mean 'his fault'?
Izzy: I don't know.
Kari: Izzy…She points at a strange email address on the screen. What's that email address, it's completely different.
Izzy: It's Infermon, and he's emailing us too. He clicks on it and it reveals Infermon's image and he's saying "Hello" hundreds of time.
Sora: "Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello!"
Tai: Why's he saying "Hello" over and over again?
Kari: Maybe he has mental issues; then again he's already crazy.
Izzy: Look at the address. They turn to the email address he's using. He's at the telephone company taking over all the phone lines. If we lose our phone connections we're finished; it's the only way we have access to the internet.
Infermon was in a field of data filled with millions of switching phone numbers.
Sora: Oh no! That means we won't be able to contact Matt, Mimi, TK or Joe either.
Tai tries to quickly dial in the phone numbers.
Tai: I've gotta warn everyone! He gets on and puts it on speaker.
Kari: Try Matt.
Phone Lady: All circuits are busy, try again later.
Tai: Oh, great, it's busy. He dials another number. Mimi.
Phone Lady: All circuits are still busy, try again later.
Tai: Come on, how could that be busy too?
Sora: Try Joe. Tai dials in Joe's number but it fails too and the lady is getting annoyed.
Phone Lady: All circuits are still busy.
Tai: Don't tell me. Let's try Matt again.
He dials in Matt's number again but the lady has had it and yells at the top of her lungs, causing Tai, Sora and Kari to have hilariously pale, horrified and strange expressions.
Phone Lady: DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME!?
Tai: But…
Phone Lady: IT'S BUSYYYYYYYYY!
Tai: I'm sorry lady.
They turn to Izzy with pale expressions.
Sora: Izzy, we have a problem.
Kari: A really big problem.
Tai: All the phones are dead!
Izzy: That Digimon did it!
Tai: Not a single call can get through!
They get shocked when the phone suddenly rings, prompting Tai to pick up.
Infermon: Hello, did you program me? He laughs maliciously.
Tai: It's Infermon…
Telephones and mobile phones all over the world were ringing and people picked them up. Infermon was turning every phone number he was calling red in the data field as Kari narrates.
Kari (Narration): Talk about speed dialling, Infermon was looking for someone. He was calling every phone number in the world.
Sora: Why's he phoning everyone in the world?
Tai: His long distance bill will be enormous! Izzy gasps when a window disappears and beeping sound comes from his laptop. What?
Izzy turns in a robotic and melancholy fashion. Just as the others were earlier, he has a sweaty, hilariously pale, horrified and strange expression. He even talks like a robot.
Izzy: Connection…terminated… Tai, Kari and Sora turn around with similar expressions.
Tai What…next…?
Sora: It's…over…
Kari: We're….doomed…
