Part 4:

"Argg!" Matt yelled, as he shielded T.K. from debris.

"We can't hold them off forever," Weregarurumon said, punching a Gizamon,"We need help."

Lillymon, Angemon, and Weregarurumon were holding off and entire swarm of Gizamon, and Phantomon, and the Dark Knights.

"No one can help you now," Phantomon said,"Your time is up! Shadow Scythe!"

Weregarurumon shielded his face, ready for the attack, but just before it hit, Wargreymon appeared and took the blast.

"Huh?" Weregarurumon asked as the sky was suddenly filled with smoke. When it cleared, Wargreymon was floating there without a scratch.

"Its Wargreymon!" Lillymon said, happily,"Every thing's going to be okay now."

"Hmm," Phantomon said,"It looks like we'll have to redouble our efforts!"

"No problem," Wargreymon said,"I've brought some friends along."

Garudamon and Megakabuterimon flew in behind him.

The Dark Knight of Air flew over on her Unimon, with the Knight of Earth on his Drimogemon, and the Knight of Water on his Megaseadramon. They were topped off with Gizamon surrounding them. Weregarurumon and Lillymon joined the good Digimon. The two sides stared each other down.

"We won't let you escape now," Phantomon said,"We'll beat you, and Myotismon won't have any opposition to this world!"

"Enough talk," Air said,"Let's fight! I want Bird-girl!"

"If you want us," Sora said,"You can have us!"

"You'd better believe it, trader!"

The two sides jumped at each other. Wargreymon slashed down, but Phantomon blocked it with his scythe. Air flew in on her Unimon, and tried to spike Garudamon with his horn. Garudamon flew out of the way.

"Thunder Javelin!" Megaseadramon fired. Weregarurumon held up his hands and blocked the blast.

"I'll show you mine," he said,"Wolf Claw!"

Earth ordered his Drimogemon to attack with his Crusher Bone. It nailed Megakabuterimon in the back of the head.

"Flower Cannon!" Lillymon shouted as she blasted away a group of Gizamon.

Wargreymon stared Phantomon down. "You're finished! Terra Force!" he yelled, firing his attack.

"Time out!" Phantomon said, trying to jump out of the way, but it was too late. He was vaporized.

"Phantomon's gone!" Air shouted,"That means I'm in charge now."

"So?" Water asked.

"Ahhhhhh!"

Everyone stopped their fighting and looked at the one who screamed in such pain. Wargreymon clutched his heart and was emersed in a glowing light as he slammed into the ground.

"Agumon," Garudamon said, flying down towards him,"What happened?"

"Tai," Agumon said, weekly, "Something's happened to Tai."




In the docking bay of Myotismon's castle, two Bakemon floated towards a plane while they were carrying a large square box. They were totally caught off guard when Flamedramon attacked.

"Fire Rocket!"

Two the Bakemon were instantly destroyed. The box clashed onto the hard, metal floor. "Good job," Tai said, as his group ran over to it. He examined it.

"Is that it?" Kari asked.

"Yup," Tai said,"Davis, I want you and Flamedramon to take this and get it back to the HQ."

"What about you?" Davis asked.

"Kari and I are going to get her crest, the real one. Don't wait for us, just leave."

Tai took the lead as he, Kari and Gatomon ran into the darkness.



Myotismon watched the battle raging outside of his castle. He turned around and faced the Digimon Kaizer. "Send the bomb now!"

The Kaizer bowed. "I will do it myself." He pressed the button on his belt, and his face was covered in his armor.

He turned and walked down the hall.


Downstairs, Davis suddenly stop. "What's wrong?" Flamedramon asked. They were carrying the bomb, moving towards the door, when Davis suddenly stopped.

"I thought I heard something," he said.

He was silent for a while longer, then turned his head. A figure slammed the side of his head, causing him to stager back. "The Digimon Kaizer!" he said.

"That's right," the Kaizer said," What do you think you're doing with that bomb?"

"Getting it somewhere safe! Out of your hands!"

"I don't think so!" he said,"Get them, Mojyamon!"

The Bigfoot-like Digimon stampled out. "Ice Cloud!"

"Fire Rocket!"

As the two attacks hit, the room was filled with smoke. When it cleared, Flamedramon was gone, and Veemon was lying there, wheezing. "Veemon, what happened?"

"Digi-Metal of Courage is gone. Agumon must be losing his strength!"


"Come on," Tai shouted as Kari and Gatmon tried to keep up with him.

"Tai," Kari asked,"What's the point of going so fast if you don't know where you're going?"

"I know right where I'm going," he said, insulted. "If we keep going down this hall, we'll eventually, run into Myotismon's throne room. Kari's Crest should be there."

Kari just nodded. Her brother was in charge, not her.

They ran for a bit longer, before reaching the door. "Its in here!" Tai said, as he flung the door opened. They had indeed reached Myotismon's throne room, but, unfortunately, Myotismon was also there.

"Well, well, well," he said,"Look at what we have here."

"Kari," Tai said, "Take cover."

She and Gatomon raced over to the side of the room and hid behind a wall beam.

Myotismon reached inside his pocket and pulled out the crest,"Could you be looking for this?"

"Give us that crest!" Tai demanded.

Myotismon smirked as he crushed the crest. "Opps, look at what I did."

"Now what do we do?" Kari asked.

"Use this one!"

"Wizardmon!" Gatomon said as her friend flew into the room,"How did you escape?"

"You set me free," he said,"When you opened all cells, you also opened mine. Now, we don't have time to explain this, Kari, here is your crest."

He through to her her crest. She caught it and quickly placed it around her neck.

"Hmm," Myotismon growled,"I should have destroyed you when I had the chance, instead, I sought to make it a grand event. I will not make that mistake again! Grisly Wing!"

"Kari!" Wizardmon cried as the assault of bats flew at Kari. Her and Gatomon were too scared to move.

"Oh no!" Tai said.

Kari covered her eyes so she wouldn't see the moment of her death. Suddenly, she felt a presence in front of her. She took her hands away and saw the back of the person. "Don't.." she tried to say, but it was too late.

The person in front of her screamed in pain as the attack hit him. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! he yelled. He never felt pain like this before. He felt bits of his skin rip off, he felt his stomach nearly cave in, parts of him started to bleed for no reason at all. Then, as quickly as it started, it was over. The person fell over backwards and hit the floor in front of Kari and Gatomon.

"Next time," Myotismon smirked,"Don't get in my way!"

"Oh no," Kari said, holding the hand of the person,"Tai, please be all right."

Her brother struggled to open his eyes. "Are you okay, Kari?"

"I'm fine Tai, you saved both of us," she cried,"Please be all right."

"Kari," he said,"We both know I'm not going to make it."

"Tai," she said, almost in a whipser,"You can't leave. We need you."


Outside, the fighting had stopped completely as everyone, the Dark Knights included, stared at the fallen Digimon. "Agumon," Biyomon said, "What's wrong?"

"No!" Palmon said,"Don't tell me.."

"That's right,"Agumon whezzed,"Tai's life force is fading, soon we will both be in the next world, but while Tai's digivice will become useless when he dies, another one will be reborn in the Primary Village. Use that to bring me back."

"No," Biyomon said,"Please don't go."



"What do you mean?" Davis asked.

"The Digi-Metal of Courage is connected to Agumon," Veemon said,"and Agumon is connected to Tai's Digivice, which is connected to Tai. If Tai goes, then Agumon will too."

"How do you know Tai is dying?"

"Because Agumon would be reborn in the Primary Village if he got killed, thus, the Metal of Courage would still be active, but if Tai dies, then Agumon will go with him. He won't be able to be reborn, thus the armor is useless."

"Tai," Davis said,"No you can't go....."


"....we need you," Kari said, holding her brother's hand.

"Kari," he said,"I want to say I'm sorry."

"For what?"

"For not being a big brother to you. I never was there for you, and never looked out for you, and I'm sorry."

Kari couldn't believe she was hearing this. "Tai, what are you talking about? You were always there for me. You were the best older brother anyone could have ever asked for."

"If I was," he said, weekly,"Then I would never have sent you away. I should have kept you by my side here, instead of off with Matt."

"Tai, you sent me away, because you knew I'd be safe out there. You were thinking of me. You were always thinking of me."

"Then why did I almost kill you when we were little?"

So that was what this was about. She had told him repeatedly, that she forgave him for that, but he could never let that go. "Tai, I knew I was sick, but I went outside because I wanted to be with you, that's why I went outside. It wasn' t your fault. I went outside to play soccer because I wanted to be like you. I wanted to learn how to play."

"Kari," Tai said, almost in a whisper,""I...I never knew, but why would you want to be like me now? I tried as hard as I could, but still, Myotismon took over this city."

"Remember what you told me the last time we saw each other? I was upset because Myotismon was capturing hundreds of kids, just to find the Eight Child? Just to find me? You told me," Its not your fault, its just the way things are. Its called Destiny."

He smiled,"Thank you Kari. Thank you, now I can die in peace. Kari, listen to me, you must stop Myotismon. When I die, so will the Kamiyas. He killed everyone in our family, mom, dad, grandma, everyone, gone. It was him. You are the last Kamiya, you must avenge our deaths. Please stop him."

She started crying, harder. Gatomon had tried to dress Tai's wounds, but he was too injured. Gatomon new he was about to die, and so was Agumon, and the Digi-metal of Courage.

"Take my crest," he said, reaching behind his neck and giving her the Crest of Courage.

"Tai, I can't."

"Please," he said,"Use it to remember me and wear it around your neck, this way, I'll always be by your heart. Tell Mimi and Miko that I love them, and tell Sora, I wish things could have worked out differently. You are my sister, and I will always love you. Goodbye Kari......................."



Outside, Biyomon and Palmon were crying as Agumon started to fade. "Goodbye," he said," And remember......" He disappeared.



Davis took one last look at the Digi Egg of Courage as it vanished from his hand. "Tai," he said, chocking back tears,"I'll avenge you!"


Kari whipped away her tears and regained control of her self. He stood up and stared at Myotismon. "You, you kill without remorse or regret. Millions have suffered at your hands.You destroy families and you destroy love, and you killed my brother! For Tai, and for everyone else you've ever hurt, we will, destroy you!"

"We'll see about that," he said, confidently.

Then Kari's Crest of Light started to glow. "No!" Myotismon said," Not her, no!"

"Gatomon digivolve to Angewomon!"
