Part 11:
T.K. sighed deeply as he continued to stare through the binoculars. He focused in on the guard towers assembled around the pentagon. "They still haven't noticed us yet," T.K. said, turning around,"But I don't know how much longer we can stay hidden. Why haven't our bosses given us the go yet?"
The forces assembled shrugged their shoulders, when they heard a beeping sound. "That's my D-terminal," Ken said, reaching in his pocket. He pulled it out and flipped open the cover. "Its from Izzy."
"What does it say?" Michael asked.
Ken's face dropped. "It-its about Mimi."
"What about her?" Catherine asked.
"S-she's dead."
"What?!" Michael asked.
"A-Arukennimon k-killed her..." Ken drifted off,"But, Wargreymon was able to avenge Mimi."
Michael clutched his fist tight. Tears slowly began to fall from his eyes,"Arukennimon's boss is going to pay dearly for this!What about Tai? How is he handling this?"
"Bad," Ken said,"Izzy's really worried about him."
"I'm not surprised," Michael said,"He really loved her. I hope he doesn't do anything stupid."
Tai stood in front of tree in the park, a solemn look on his face. The wind blew, whipping his jacket around him, but, he kept staring at the tree.
"Tai."
He heard the voice, but he didn't care. He just kept staring at the tree.
"Tai, Tai, can you hear me? Kari told me that you were here."
"Sora," Tai thought,"What's she doing here?"
The red headed girl slowed down her run and slowly stopped at his side. "What are you looking at?" she asked, turning to the tree. Her stomach started to turn with a weird feeling. The bark of the tree had a heart carved into it. Inside the heart were the words, "Tai+Mimi, forever."
"I didn't think they even did this kind of thing anymore," Sora said, with a smile.
"Quit trying to cheer me up," Tai said,"I'm not in the mood."
"Tai," Sora said, placing her hand on his shoulder,"You need to talk to someone about this."
"Why?" Tai asked,"Mimi's dead, what's to talk about? She's dead, my girlfriend, my heart, is gone, forever."
He started to cry softly,"She's dead. She was the only one who ever would have loved me, the only one who could stand me....."
Sora spun him around. "That's ridiculous! There are lots of girls that would love to go out with you, to be with you."
"Like who?" he asked.
"Like me," she said, smiling slightly.
"W-what?" he asked.
"Where is he?" Matt asked, walking through the grassy field of the park,"His sister said that he was at the park, so where is....there is he! Wait.......is that Sora with him?"
He squinted his eyes. "That's her, what's she doing here?!" He started to get angry, but, got himself under control. "I can't lose myself now. As much as I don't like him, and I do even more now that he's stealing my girl, I need him. I can't beat Piedmon alone"
He walked up to where Tai and Sora were talking. "Tai, Sora," he shouted,"Where have you guys been?"
"Matt?" Tai asked, surprised,"What are you doing here?"
"Acting as messenger," he said,"You're D-terminal is off."
"What's the problem?" Tai asked.
"Remember that satellite dish that was on top of the Empire State Building?" Matt asked.
"Of course!" Tai said, with an angry look on his face.
"Well," Matt said, please he was able to get to Tai,"It somehow was able to hack into the defense satellites of the United States."
"What?" Sora asked.
"It gets worse," Matt said,"Joe reports that Infermon has been uploaded onto the military system, along with something really powerful from the Digital World."
"That's got to be Piedmon!" Tai said, taking out his D-terminal,"I'm e-mail Izzy to upload Kari and Gatomon onto the internet, then send Davis into the Digital World to join T.K.'s group..."
"I get it," Matt said,"We'll send the ones that already fought on the internet. I'll e-mail Joe and T.K."
"Good," Tai said,"We'll find Piedmon, and finish this!"
T.K. had just watched Michael and Cody leave, and replaced by Davis, and Sora. "Good," he said, turning to the base,"Now, let's see what secrets are inside that building."
"Agreed," Devimon said, hovering into the air,"Attack!"
The Digidestined and Myotismon's forces charged at the building that once belonged to Arukennimon. The Mekanorimon in the guard towers all turned to the army. "Alarm, alarm," they all sounded,"Enemy attack!"
The all faced T.K. and the others, placing their hands together. "Target sighted. Twin Beam!"
All the Mekanorimon's attacks blasted to the Digidestined and Digimon army. One beam blasted to the right of the group, then one to the left, finally one got lucky and blasted right in front of them. "Darn it!" Davis yelled,"They're aim is not as bad as I thought."
"They're good," Veemon said,"But, I'm better."
"Right, get them!"
"Veemon armor digivolve to Flamedramon, the Fires of Courage!"
"Patamon armor digivolve to Pegasusmon, Flying Hope!"
"Terriermon digivolve to Gargomon!"
"Floramon digivolve to Kiwimon!"
"Biyomon digivolve to Birdramon!"
Pegasusmon, Devimon, and Bridramon attacked from the air, circling around the octagon, blasting the Mekanorimon army that was emerging from every door. Kiwimon and Gargomon planted their feet firmly on the ground, blasting at the doorway, causing hundreds of Mekanorimon to fall as they emerged from the base.
More Mekanorimon poured out, but, Devimon and the Digidestined kept at it, attacking every evil Digimon that emerged. After what seemed like hours, the doorway was empty. "Hmm," T.K. said, as he and Pegasusmon dropped down onto the ground,"I think we got all of them."
"I would agree," Devimon said, landing next to the rest of the Digidestined,"Let us go inside."
The inside of the base was nothing more than a group of long, confusing tunnels, that seemed to wrap around each other. Eventually the group made it to a large, octagon shaped room, filled with mechanical equipment, and a large computer. "I would assume this is the center," Devimon said.
"Yeah," T.K. agreed,"Look, there's a computer there. Maybe we can learn stuff from that."
Catherine pushed through the group and over to the computer. "Let uz zee," she said, typing on the glowing keyboard."I zink I have found zomezing.."
The screen became a split screen, a triangle appearing on the left screen. An image of Tai appeared on the left vortex of the triangle. On the right screen was footage of Tai's battle with Matt, while words appeared at the bottom of the screen, "Zubject: Taichi Kamiya," Catherine read," Clazzification: Digidestined Human, Partner, Wargreymon, Mega Level, currently most powerful Digimon on Earth."
The screen changed. An image of Matt appeared on the right vortex of the triangle, while footage of his battle with Tai appeared. "Zubject: Yamato Ishida," Catherine read from the bottom," Clazzification: Digidestined Human, Partner: Metalgarurumon, Mega Level. It is within 95% probability that these are two members of the Trinity."
Myotismon then appeared in the last vortex of the triangle, while footage of Myotismon battling a group of Mekanorimon. "Zubject: Myotismon, Clazzification: Vampire Digimon, Ultimate Level, but, he doez have a Mega form. Probability within 90% he iz final member of Trinity. If these zree were to converge, probability iz over 99.9% Piedmon would be desztroyed. He iz being held in zee prison section of zis base."
She turned around and looked at the others. "What doez zis mean?"
"I don't know," Devimon said,"But that is why they captured Myotismon, and erected the Dark Towers, to keep Kamiya and Ishida's Digimon from Digivolving.
Suddenly, they heard a beeping sound, and T.K took out his D-terminal. "What is it?" Davis asked.
"Its from Matt," he said,".....Oh no!"
"What is going on?" Sora asked.
"The world is at danger," T.K. said,"About to be destroyed, and there's nothing we can..." He looked up to the computer screen, that still had the Trinity on the screen. T.K. quickly typed a message in the D-terminal.
"What do you mean?" Willis asked.
T.K. read the reply to the e-mail he sent. He nodded, approvingly, then ran out of the room.
Everyone looked at each other, then charged after T.K.
"Yahoo!" Gatomon cheered as she as Kari flew through a multicolored tunnel,"We're going back in!"
Kari looked around the tunnel that lead to the internet,"Where are the others?"
"Right here!"
Kari and Gatomon turned to the right and saw Ken, Yolei, Michael, Derek and Cody. "All right!" Yolei said with a smile,"The A-team is going to show that jerk Infermon what a mistake is was to mess with us the first time! HA!"
Michael and Betamon hovered over to where Kari and Gatomon were. "Um, Kari," he said,"Is..ah..Mimi..really..."
She nodded sadly. "Yes, she's gone. Oh God, I miss her so much."
"How's Tai?" Michael asked.
Before Kari could answer, the tunnel ended, and the Digidestined emerged in a large cylinder shaped room, like before, only this one had construction beams floating everywhere. One of the large i-beams, had Infermon crawling up it. Six black screens appeared behind Kari and the others, with Tai, Matt, Izzy, Joe, Lady Devimon, and Phantomon on one screen each. "There he is!" Tai cried out.
"Let's get him," Kari said.
"Gatomon digivolve to Angewomon!"
"Wormmon digivolve to Stingmon!"
"Hawkmon digivolve to Aquillamon!"
"Betamon digivolve to Seadramon! Seadramon digivolve to Megaseadramon!"
"Crabmon digivolve to Coelemon!"
"Armadillomon digivolve to Ankylomon!"
"I am awaiting for the arrival of my master," Infermon said,"Do not interfere."
"He's teasing us," Ladydevimon said.
"Get him!" Tai ordered.
Angewomon pulled her bow back, and fired her Celestial Arrow, that knocked Infermon off of the I-beam, then Aquillamon shot underneath the virus Digimon, and hit him in the back with his Grand Horns. While Infermon was flying back up into the air, Stingmon attacked, showering him with a flurry of kicks. Infermon crashed into a group of I-beams.
"I think we got him," Lady Devimon said.
Infermon suddenly jumped up from the I-beams, and tore into the Digidestined Digimon. "Spider Shooter!"
He shot Angewomon, Stingmon, and Aquillamon, throwing them away from the battle. Megaseadramon, Coelemon, and Ankylomon than started their attack. Infermon tore through them, however.
"They're getting slaughtered!" Matt said.
"Enough of this playing around!" Tai said,"Let's show Infermon what it means to fight against Megas!"
"I've got you," Matt said,"I'm uploading Gabumon there right now."
Tai nodded, and turned around. He saw his faithful Digimon at his side,"You're up."
Infermon grabbed Megaseadramon's tail, and swung him around, crashing him into Ankylomon and Coelemon.
"This isn't good," Kari said, watching her Digimon slam into a pile of floating debris,"He's killing, just like before."
Suddenly, a circle of the wall disappeared, and two Digimon emerged into the room. "Agumon?" Kari asked.
"Gabumon!" Yolei cried.
"Kari," Izzy said,"Get prepared to exit the Internet. We're sending you to Genai's house. Tai and Matt will handle this now."
"You've got it," Kari said. She and the rest of the Digidestined exited through the tunnel.
Tai and Matt's screens reappeared. "Now," Matt said,"Its time to Digivolve!"
"Agumon..."
"Gabumon..."
"...warp Digivolve to..."
"Wargreymon!"
"Metalgarurumon!"
All over the world, all eyes were turned to their computer screens, and all mouths were at the floor, as they watched two unforeseen Mega Digimon began to battle the threat on the internet.
In China, a young girl ran from her computer and stuck her head out the window. She called out to her three older brothers that were fighting against what they called a Mojyamon. "Guys, you have to come inside and see this!"
"We're kind of busy right now!" her oldest brother called out,"The world is at war with the Digital World, remember? We've been fighting non-stop since early this morning, right?"
"I know that," the girl said,"But, there are battles in the computer! Two Megas!"
"What?"
"Its true," she said, nodding,"They're fighting against the virus one. What should I do?"
"Send an e-mail," one of the brother's said,"Let them know they have our support."
"Okay," she said, turning back to the computer.
Hundreds of e-mails from all over the world poured into the Ishida and Kamiya computers. It was just a task for Izzy to keep an eye on the internet battle, and read all the e-mails.
Inside the internet the battle between the two megas and Infermon continued. Metalgarurumon fired his missiles at Infermon, twisting him in the air. Wargreymon then attacked, flipping Infermon the other way. Infermon got control of himself, and jumped off of the I-beam and began to crawl along the wall. Metalgarurumon opened his missile tubes and fired.
Infermon jumped out of the way, dodging the attacks.
"I think we're winning," Ladydevimon said, with a smile.
"No, we're not," Joe said over the chat room box.
"What?" Tai asked.
"The U.S.A just launched two Nuclear Missiles, heading towards this city!"
"What?" Tai and Izzy asked.
"They have no explanation for it," Joe said,"But, considering that Infermon in in the U.S.A defenses systems..."
"Gotcha!" Tai said,"Wargreymon destroy Infermon, now!"
"You got it," Wargreymon said, placing his claws together.
"Let me put him on ice first," Metalgarurumon said, opening his missiles again. "Ice Wolf Claw!"
The missiles charged at Infermon. He tried to get out of the way, but, it wasn't fast enough. Infermon was frozen solid under a thick sheet of ice. Wargreymon placed his claws together, and spun at Infermon, shattering him into a billion shards before he disappeared.
"Yes!" Tai said, throwing his hands into the air,"We did it! We beat him."
"We've still got a problem," Joe said,"The missiles haven't stopped yet, the nuclear bombs inside are still active for detonation."
"Can't the military stop them?" Matt asked.
"Every nation is trying to intercept them," Joe said,"But they're still going to land in less then ten minutes."
"But, if Infermon wasn't the one who was connected to the missiles, who was?" Phantomon asked.
"I am!"
Everyone turned back to their computer screens. Inside the internet battlefield, a new tunnel entrance appeared. A being emerged from it. He was wearing a colorful costume, with two swords in an 'x' on his back. Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon hovered in the air as they stared at him."Greetings," he said,"I am called Piedmon, and I was the one that launched the missiles at your world."
"Why?" Wargreymon asked.
"Because, it will cause a war that will destroy the human civilization, allowing the Digimon to claim the Earth," Piedmon said,"And I will be its king!"
"We have to stop him," Tai said,"Get him Wargreymon!"
Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon charged at Piedmon, but he jumped into the air. He then flipped in the air whipping out his swords. He slashed into Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon's backs. Piedmon then jumped between them, and slammed them with his fists.
"Darn it!" Tai said,"He's creaming them! Come on, Wargreymon."
Wargreymon slashed at Piedmon with his claw, but Piedmon punched Wargreymon in the chin.
"Darn!" Tai shouted, slamming his hands onto the computer counter. The screens changed to a red one with hundreds of 0 and 1 running across it.
"Tai!" Izzy yelled.
"What?" he asked.
"You crashed the computer," Izzy said,"Now it has to reboot!"
T.K. and the rest of his Digidestined team ran into the long hallway in the base. There prison cells lining the walls. All were empty, save for one. "Myotismon?" T.K. asked.
The vampire Digimon raised his head. "I know you, you are Ishida's younger brother."
"That's right," T.K. said,"And we're here to rescue you..."
"Alright!" Izzy said, typing on the keyboard,"We're back on line!"
The image on the computer screen appeared. Izzy sucked a deep breath in, and Tai gasped. On the screen was an image of Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon, floating in a pile of debris. "Where were you two?!" Matt shouted from his screen,"You're sure picked a lousy time to take a lunch break!"
"What happened to them?" Tai asked.
"When you left, Wargreymon lost his processing speed, and Piedmon was able to rip both of them apart!"
"I..I've failed him," Tai said, sadly. He looked at the time that Izzy had placed on the computer screen. "And in eight minutes World War 3 will start, and its my fault!"
Suddenly, in the internet battlefield, more chat room screens dropped down, and all the other Digidestineds appeared on them. "Kari?" Tai asked.
"T.K.?" Matt asked,"Where are you?"
"Where in Gennai's house," T.K said,"And we've got help coming."
Another tunnel entrance opened up. "Now what?" Tai asked. Then, he recognized the figure that emerged from the tunnel. "Myotismon..."
"Myotismon!" Ladydevimon said, happily,"You are free!"
The vampire Digimon floated towards where Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon were slowly coming around. "Yes," he told the screens that were present,"And I have been informed of the situation, how may I be of assistance?"
"We need to find Piedmon," Metalgarurumon said,"But, we don't know where he is."
"I think I may know," Izzy said,"If he was able to launch the U.S. missiles, he must be in the Pentagon."
"I hope you're right," Tai said,"Wargreymon, get to the Pentagon, and stop that clown!"
A tunnel entrance opened and Wargreymon flew into it, followed by Metalgarurumon and Myotismon.
All over the world, everyone that wasn't fighting against the invading Digimon, were watching their computer screens. A high school computer class in America quickly crowded around one of the computers in the room, watching as that member typed away on the keyboard. In Europe, a grade school was also sending Izzy and Joe e-mails. A girl in a hospital room was tracking was watching the three Digimon on her laptop while her roommate was looking on. Buddhist monks, campers in the woods, people from all over the world were watching the battle that would save their world.
After what seemed like forever, the Trinity reached the end of the tunnel that lead to the Pentagon computer system. The inside was shaped like a giant arena, where the thousands of seats were filled with thousands of Mekanorimons, and directly in front of them was a throne shaped seat, where Piedmon sat. "What are those?" Tai asked.
"Piedmon's Army," Ladydevimon said,"Be careful."
"Ha ha ha!" Piedmon laughed,"I am surprised that you managed to find me. However, you're still not going to win this fight!"
"Want to bet?" Tai asked.
"You're afraid of the three of us for some reason," Wargreymon said,"And this Trinity is going to win!"
The Mekanorimon all turned towards the three Digimon and opened fire. They began to doge them. "HA ha!" Piedmon laughed,"Impressive, but, you can't doge them forever!"
Metalgarurumon was pegged in the hind leg, throwing him off balance. The Mekanorimon turned the attacks towards him, blasting mercilessly. Wargreymon flew over to help, but he was attacked also.
"Metalgarurumon, Wargreymon!" Myotismon shouted. He turned at the grinning clown. "Myotismon digivolve to Venom Myotismon!"
Piedmon was slightly surprised, even more so when Venom Myotismon grabbed him by his throat. "Stop firing now, or you will be sorry!"
Piedmon's army stopped, and when the smoke cleared, Wargreymon floated lifelessly, his armor cracked to pieces. Metalgarurumon looked even worse, parts of his armor missing.
"Darn you!" Venom Myotismon shouted, raising his claw, when Piedmon brought his foot up and kicked the massive Mega in the stomach.
Venom Myotismon hovered back, then Piedmon placed his hands together. "Clown Trick!" Venom Myotismon was blown away, the shards of his body floating above Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon.
"Myotismon!" Ladydevimon cried,"No!"
"No..." Tai said, looking at Wargreymon,"No, I have to help him....." He started to reach at the computer screen.
"Tai," Izzy said, his back to him,"The e-mails that are coming in are slowing down your Digimon's speed. I'm rerouting all the incoming e-mails into local memory, that should...Tai?"
He turned around, but his friend was no where in the room. "Where did he.." he turned to the computer screen,"What? How did Tai get inside?"
Tai floated down and landed on top of his Digimon, while Matt landed on top of Metalgarurumon. "Wargreymon," Tai said,"Please....Wargreymon."
"Tai," Matt said,"Why won't he answer me?"
"Keep trying," Tai said, turning back to his Digimon. "Wargreymon, you can't give up yet. Too many people are still counting on you. The missiles are going to fall, and the e-mails keep coming in, they won't stop. I read one from a boy who was just getting out of the hospital after breaking his leg, one from a family that was just reunited after five years apart, one from a girl," he started to cry slightly,"A little girl that just turned five-years-old. All of them as still counting on you! Please, feel their hope, feel their strength!"
Wargreymon coughed slightly, and he opened his eyes. "I..I feel them!"
The particles from Venom Myotismon's body that were formed when Piedmon attacked slowly floated down towards the two Digimon. They merged and entered Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon's body.
"Myotismon's energy is merging with Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon's body," Ladydevimon said.
"But..."Izzy said,"Myotismon was a single being....Hmm."
Wargreymon's shield slammed together, then his body pulled into his head. Out of his head formed a long, tube like body. The same thing happened with Metalgarurumon. The top of the tubes floated until they were parallel to each other.
Suddenly, the walls were covered with small boxes, with images of children on them. The images started to glow, and shoot out beams of light that connected with each other in the center of the two tubes.
"They combined..." Joe said.
All the Digidestined and Ladydevimon watched as a new Digimon was formed. "Part Wargreymon..." Kari said.
"Part Metalgarurumon..." T.K. said.
Ladydevimon nodded." Myotismon's energy has enabled them to Digivolve together to become..."
The new Digimon threw his arms away from in front of his face,"Omnimon!" The new Digimon was big, with Tai riding on his Wargreymon arm, and Matt riding on the shoulder of the Metalgarurumon arm.
"So, "Piedmon said,"The secret of the Trinity is reveild. Get that mix-and-match freak!"
The Mekanorimon fired their laser beams at Omnimon. The fused Digimon lifted his Wargreymon arm, and shot it down, emerging a blade. "Transcended Sword!"
"Hurry!" T.K. shouted.
Omnimon raised his sword, then twirled around, blasting the beams of energy back at the Mekanorimon, destroying a large number of them. He then raised his Metalgarurumon arm, and shot is down, making a cannon emerge. "Supreme Cannon!"
He fired the cannon at the Mekanorimon, destroying a massive circumference, then turned and fired at another group, destroying more. Soon, all the Mekanorimon were gone.
"Tai," Izzy shouted,"Get Piedmon, hurry, we're running out of time!"
"There he is!" Matt said, pointing at the wall,"Omnimon, quick attack!"
Omnimon raised his cannon, but Piedmon jumped out of the way. Omnimon found him again but he jumped out of the way.
"He's too fast for us," Tai said,"Every time we get him in our sights, he jumps somewhere else. "
"We've got to hurry," Matt said,"There's just..."
"...one minute left," the girl in China said.
"...one minute left," the young boy in America said.
"...one minute left," the school class said.
"Squad leader to command," the person in the jet said, spinning in the air,"We were unable to intercept the target, the missile will impact, I repeat, the missile will impact!"
Izzy nervously tapped against the edge of the keyboard, as he glanced up at the timer on the computer screen. "We have the power to destroy him now, but we don't have the time we need to find a way to slow him down. If only we could....that's it!"
"What's it?" Joe asked, from his computer chat box.
"I'm going to infect Piedmon with as many Dark Rings as I can."
"But, they won't work on a mega Digimon..."
"No," Izzy said,"But they will slow him down." Izzy's fingers ran across the keyboard, calling up Sam Ichijoji's computer files. He constructed as many Dark Rings as he could inside the computer system, then raised his finger back. "You're finished!" he yelled, hitting the enter button.
Back inside the stadium, Piedmon landed on the wall. He grinned wickedly to himself as he began to climb up the wall. He moaned loudly when he felt something clamp around his leg. He turned slightly, and felt another thing clamp around his arm. He saw about a dozen of black strips fly out of the tunnel exit and swarm towards him. He tried to get out of the way, but, he found that he now wasn't fast enough. All the dark strips slammed into various places on him and whip around, creating Dark Rings that held him tight.
Omnimon spun around and found Piedmon stuck in place on the wall. "Tai, get him!" Izzy shouted.
Omnimon quickly shot forward, zooming towards Piedmon. "Ten seconds left!" Tai shouted.
"Nine.."
Omnimon flew closer.
"Eight.."
Piedmon got ready to attack.
"Seven..."
In Genai's house, Kari placed her hands together.
"Six..."
T.K. held his breath.
"Five..."
Joe leaned as close as he could to the screen.
"Four..."
Izzy griped tightly to the arms of his chair.
"Three..."
Ladydevimon and Phantomon looked nervously on.
"Two...."
Omnimon was in place. He drew his sword back, and slammed it forward.
"One..."
The sword slammed deeply into Piedmon's head. All was silent, then, Omnimon grinned to himself. "Connection, terminated!" Piedmon growled and his voice grew quiet as the rest of his body melted away.
Izzy looked away from the battle and to the timer on the screen. The last number blinked back and forth from 1 to 2. He smiled slightly to himself, then nearly fainted.
As the missile crashed harmlessly into the Sea of Japan, all Dark Towers around the world vanished, and the Invading Digimon army returned to the Digital World as quickly as they had appeared. The Digidestined cheered and laughed wildly.
Back inside the Kamiya basement, Matt had his mouth over the garbage can. "I...I think I'm going to...lose my lunch."
Tai had the same look on his face. "You weren't on the sword arm."
Suddenly, the room was filled with a bright light, sending all the Digidestined back home. "You did it, Tai!" Kari cheered, running over to him,"You saved us!"
"Matt," T.K. said, "You saved the world."
All through the basement, the Digidestined cheered. Michael gave Willis a hi-five, Izzy and Joe shared a handshake, and Catherine and Derek smiled at each other. T.K. and Kari found themselves staring at each other for a second, then T.K. ran over and hugged Kari tightly, twirling her around in the air.
Tai smiled proudly as he watched the Digidestined celebrate. He then sighed, "I just wish you were here to see this, Mimi. I loved you so much, why did you have to die?"
"Tai," Sora said, walking up to him,"Are you okay?"
"Yeah," he said, sighing,"I..I just wish that Mimi was here."
Sora hesitated for a second. She then took a deep breath and kissed him lightly on the cheek. Tai's eyes were open wide in shock. "W-why did you do that?" he asked.
Sora started to turn a red that was darker than her hair. "I....I guess you were just so depressed, that...that I was afraid you were going to do something....I'm sorry."
"No...no," Tai said, a slight smile on his face,"I kind of like it."
The two started laughing, which Matt saw from across the room. He growled fiercly, and clenched his fist. "Matt?" T.K. asked, walking towards him,"Are you okay?"
"Get the team ready," he said,"We're going to attack the Kamiya team, tonight!"
"W-what?" T.K. asked, shocked,"B-but, we don't need to fight them anymore. We worked together so well... We can even be their friends, if we try."
Matt started at him. "They are still our enemies! We attack, tonight!"
END OF PART 11
T.K. sighed deeply as he continued to stare through the binoculars. He focused in on the guard towers assembled around the pentagon. "They still haven't noticed us yet," T.K. said, turning around,"But I don't know how much longer we can stay hidden. Why haven't our bosses given us the go yet?"
The forces assembled shrugged their shoulders, when they heard a beeping sound. "That's my D-terminal," Ken said, reaching in his pocket. He pulled it out and flipped open the cover. "Its from Izzy."
"What does it say?" Michael asked.
Ken's face dropped. "It-its about Mimi."
"What about her?" Catherine asked.
"S-she's dead."
"What?!" Michael asked.
"A-Arukennimon k-killed her..." Ken drifted off,"But, Wargreymon was able to avenge Mimi."
Michael clutched his fist tight. Tears slowly began to fall from his eyes,"Arukennimon's boss is going to pay dearly for this!What about Tai? How is he handling this?"
"Bad," Ken said,"Izzy's really worried about him."
"I'm not surprised," Michael said,"He really loved her. I hope he doesn't do anything stupid."
Tai stood in front of tree in the park, a solemn look on his face. The wind blew, whipping his jacket around him, but, he kept staring at the tree.
"Tai."
He heard the voice, but he didn't care. He just kept staring at the tree.
"Tai, Tai, can you hear me? Kari told me that you were here."
"Sora," Tai thought,"What's she doing here?"
The red headed girl slowed down her run and slowly stopped at his side. "What are you looking at?" she asked, turning to the tree. Her stomach started to turn with a weird feeling. The bark of the tree had a heart carved into it. Inside the heart were the words, "Tai+Mimi, forever."
"I didn't think they even did this kind of thing anymore," Sora said, with a smile.
"Quit trying to cheer me up," Tai said,"I'm not in the mood."
"Tai," Sora said, placing her hand on his shoulder,"You need to talk to someone about this."
"Why?" Tai asked,"Mimi's dead, what's to talk about? She's dead, my girlfriend, my heart, is gone, forever."
He started to cry softly,"She's dead. She was the only one who ever would have loved me, the only one who could stand me....."
Sora spun him around. "That's ridiculous! There are lots of girls that would love to go out with you, to be with you."
"Like who?" he asked.
"Like me," she said, smiling slightly.
"W-what?" he asked.
"Where is he?" Matt asked, walking through the grassy field of the park,"His sister said that he was at the park, so where is....there is he! Wait.......is that Sora with him?"
He squinted his eyes. "That's her, what's she doing here?!" He started to get angry, but, got himself under control. "I can't lose myself now. As much as I don't like him, and I do even more now that he's stealing my girl, I need him. I can't beat Piedmon alone"
He walked up to where Tai and Sora were talking. "Tai, Sora," he shouted,"Where have you guys been?"
"Matt?" Tai asked, surprised,"What are you doing here?"
"Acting as messenger," he said,"You're D-terminal is off."
"What's the problem?" Tai asked.
"Remember that satellite dish that was on top of the Empire State Building?" Matt asked.
"Of course!" Tai said, with an angry look on his face.
"Well," Matt said, please he was able to get to Tai,"It somehow was able to hack into the defense satellites of the United States."
"What?" Sora asked.
"It gets worse," Matt said,"Joe reports that Infermon has been uploaded onto the military system, along with something really powerful from the Digital World."
"That's got to be Piedmon!" Tai said, taking out his D-terminal,"I'm e-mail Izzy to upload Kari and Gatomon onto the internet, then send Davis into the Digital World to join T.K.'s group..."
"I get it," Matt said,"We'll send the ones that already fought on the internet. I'll e-mail Joe and T.K."
"Good," Tai said,"We'll find Piedmon, and finish this!"
T.K. had just watched Michael and Cody leave, and replaced by Davis, and Sora. "Good," he said, turning to the base,"Now, let's see what secrets are inside that building."
"Agreed," Devimon said, hovering into the air,"Attack!"
The Digidestined and Myotismon's forces charged at the building that once belonged to Arukennimon. The Mekanorimon in the guard towers all turned to the army. "Alarm, alarm," they all sounded,"Enemy attack!"
The all faced T.K. and the others, placing their hands together. "Target sighted. Twin Beam!"
All the Mekanorimon's attacks blasted to the Digidestined and Digimon army. One beam blasted to the right of the group, then one to the left, finally one got lucky and blasted right in front of them. "Darn it!" Davis yelled,"They're aim is not as bad as I thought."
"They're good," Veemon said,"But, I'm better."
"Right, get them!"
"Veemon armor digivolve to Flamedramon, the Fires of Courage!"
"Patamon armor digivolve to Pegasusmon, Flying Hope!"
"Terriermon digivolve to Gargomon!"
"Floramon digivolve to Kiwimon!"
"Biyomon digivolve to Birdramon!"
Pegasusmon, Devimon, and Bridramon attacked from the air, circling around the octagon, blasting the Mekanorimon army that was emerging from every door. Kiwimon and Gargomon planted their feet firmly on the ground, blasting at the doorway, causing hundreds of Mekanorimon to fall as they emerged from the base.
More Mekanorimon poured out, but, Devimon and the Digidestined kept at it, attacking every evil Digimon that emerged. After what seemed like hours, the doorway was empty. "Hmm," T.K. said, as he and Pegasusmon dropped down onto the ground,"I think we got all of them."
"I would agree," Devimon said, landing next to the rest of the Digidestined,"Let us go inside."
The inside of the base was nothing more than a group of long, confusing tunnels, that seemed to wrap around each other. Eventually the group made it to a large, octagon shaped room, filled with mechanical equipment, and a large computer. "I would assume this is the center," Devimon said.
"Yeah," T.K. agreed,"Look, there's a computer there. Maybe we can learn stuff from that."
Catherine pushed through the group and over to the computer. "Let uz zee," she said, typing on the glowing keyboard."I zink I have found zomezing.."
The screen became a split screen, a triangle appearing on the left screen. An image of Tai appeared on the left vortex of the triangle. On the right screen was footage of Tai's battle with Matt, while words appeared at the bottom of the screen, "Zubject: Taichi Kamiya," Catherine read," Clazzification: Digidestined Human, Partner, Wargreymon, Mega Level, currently most powerful Digimon on Earth."
The screen changed. An image of Matt appeared on the right vortex of the triangle, while footage of his battle with Tai appeared. "Zubject: Yamato Ishida," Catherine read from the bottom," Clazzification: Digidestined Human, Partner: Metalgarurumon, Mega Level. It is within 95% probability that these are two members of the Trinity."
Myotismon then appeared in the last vortex of the triangle, while footage of Myotismon battling a group of Mekanorimon. "Zubject: Myotismon, Clazzification: Vampire Digimon, Ultimate Level, but, he doez have a Mega form. Probability within 90% he iz final member of Trinity. If these zree were to converge, probability iz over 99.9% Piedmon would be desztroyed. He iz being held in zee prison section of zis base."
She turned around and looked at the others. "What doez zis mean?"
"I don't know," Devimon said,"But that is why they captured Myotismon, and erected the Dark Towers, to keep Kamiya and Ishida's Digimon from Digivolving.
Suddenly, they heard a beeping sound, and T.K took out his D-terminal. "What is it?" Davis asked.
"Its from Matt," he said,".....Oh no!"
"What is going on?" Sora asked.
"The world is at danger," T.K. said,"About to be destroyed, and there's nothing we can..." He looked up to the computer screen, that still had the Trinity on the screen. T.K. quickly typed a message in the D-terminal.
"What do you mean?" Willis asked.
T.K. read the reply to the e-mail he sent. He nodded, approvingly, then ran out of the room.
Everyone looked at each other, then charged after T.K.
"Yahoo!" Gatomon cheered as she as Kari flew through a multicolored tunnel,"We're going back in!"
Kari looked around the tunnel that lead to the internet,"Where are the others?"
"Right here!"
Kari and Gatomon turned to the right and saw Ken, Yolei, Michael, Derek and Cody. "All right!" Yolei said with a smile,"The A-team is going to show that jerk Infermon what a mistake is was to mess with us the first time! HA!"
Michael and Betamon hovered over to where Kari and Gatomon were. "Um, Kari," he said,"Is..ah..Mimi..really..."
She nodded sadly. "Yes, she's gone. Oh God, I miss her so much."
"How's Tai?" Michael asked.
Before Kari could answer, the tunnel ended, and the Digidestined emerged in a large cylinder shaped room, like before, only this one had construction beams floating everywhere. One of the large i-beams, had Infermon crawling up it. Six black screens appeared behind Kari and the others, with Tai, Matt, Izzy, Joe, Lady Devimon, and Phantomon on one screen each. "There he is!" Tai cried out.
"Let's get him," Kari said.
"Gatomon digivolve to Angewomon!"
"Wormmon digivolve to Stingmon!"
"Hawkmon digivolve to Aquillamon!"
"Betamon digivolve to Seadramon! Seadramon digivolve to Megaseadramon!"
"Crabmon digivolve to Coelemon!"
"Armadillomon digivolve to Ankylomon!"
"I am awaiting for the arrival of my master," Infermon said,"Do not interfere."
"He's teasing us," Ladydevimon said.
"Get him!" Tai ordered.
Angewomon pulled her bow back, and fired her Celestial Arrow, that knocked Infermon off of the I-beam, then Aquillamon shot underneath the virus Digimon, and hit him in the back with his Grand Horns. While Infermon was flying back up into the air, Stingmon attacked, showering him with a flurry of kicks. Infermon crashed into a group of I-beams.
"I think we got him," Lady Devimon said.
Infermon suddenly jumped up from the I-beams, and tore into the Digidestined Digimon. "Spider Shooter!"
He shot Angewomon, Stingmon, and Aquillamon, throwing them away from the battle. Megaseadramon, Coelemon, and Ankylomon than started their attack. Infermon tore through them, however.
"They're getting slaughtered!" Matt said.
"Enough of this playing around!" Tai said,"Let's show Infermon what it means to fight against Megas!"
"I've got you," Matt said,"I'm uploading Gabumon there right now."
Tai nodded, and turned around. He saw his faithful Digimon at his side,"You're up."
Infermon grabbed Megaseadramon's tail, and swung him around, crashing him into Ankylomon and Coelemon.
"This isn't good," Kari said, watching her Digimon slam into a pile of floating debris,"He's killing, just like before."
Suddenly, a circle of the wall disappeared, and two Digimon emerged into the room. "Agumon?" Kari asked.
"Gabumon!" Yolei cried.
"Kari," Izzy said,"Get prepared to exit the Internet. We're sending you to Genai's house. Tai and Matt will handle this now."
"You've got it," Kari said. She and the rest of the Digidestined exited through the tunnel.
Tai and Matt's screens reappeared. "Now," Matt said,"Its time to Digivolve!"
"Agumon..."
"Gabumon..."
"...warp Digivolve to..."
"Wargreymon!"
"Metalgarurumon!"
All over the world, all eyes were turned to their computer screens, and all mouths were at the floor, as they watched two unforeseen Mega Digimon began to battle the threat on the internet.
In China, a young girl ran from her computer and stuck her head out the window. She called out to her three older brothers that were fighting against what they called a Mojyamon. "Guys, you have to come inside and see this!"
"We're kind of busy right now!" her oldest brother called out,"The world is at war with the Digital World, remember? We've been fighting non-stop since early this morning, right?"
"I know that," the girl said,"But, there are battles in the computer! Two Megas!"
"What?"
"Its true," she said, nodding,"They're fighting against the virus one. What should I do?"
"Send an e-mail," one of the brother's said,"Let them know they have our support."
"Okay," she said, turning back to the computer.
Hundreds of e-mails from all over the world poured into the Ishida and Kamiya computers. It was just a task for Izzy to keep an eye on the internet battle, and read all the e-mails.
Inside the internet the battle between the two megas and Infermon continued. Metalgarurumon fired his missiles at Infermon, twisting him in the air. Wargreymon then attacked, flipping Infermon the other way. Infermon got control of himself, and jumped off of the I-beam and began to crawl along the wall. Metalgarurumon opened his missile tubes and fired.
Infermon jumped out of the way, dodging the attacks.
"I think we're winning," Ladydevimon said, with a smile.
"No, we're not," Joe said over the chat room box.
"What?" Tai asked.
"The U.S.A just launched two Nuclear Missiles, heading towards this city!"
"What?" Tai and Izzy asked.
"They have no explanation for it," Joe said,"But, considering that Infermon in in the U.S.A defenses systems..."
"Gotcha!" Tai said,"Wargreymon destroy Infermon, now!"
"You got it," Wargreymon said, placing his claws together.
"Let me put him on ice first," Metalgarurumon said, opening his missiles again. "Ice Wolf Claw!"
The missiles charged at Infermon. He tried to get out of the way, but, it wasn't fast enough. Infermon was frozen solid under a thick sheet of ice. Wargreymon placed his claws together, and spun at Infermon, shattering him into a billion shards before he disappeared.
"Yes!" Tai said, throwing his hands into the air,"We did it! We beat him."
"We've still got a problem," Joe said,"The missiles haven't stopped yet, the nuclear bombs inside are still active for detonation."
"Can't the military stop them?" Matt asked.
"Every nation is trying to intercept them," Joe said,"But they're still going to land in less then ten minutes."
"But, if Infermon wasn't the one who was connected to the missiles, who was?" Phantomon asked.
"I am!"
Everyone turned back to their computer screens. Inside the internet battlefield, a new tunnel entrance appeared. A being emerged from it. He was wearing a colorful costume, with two swords in an 'x' on his back. Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon hovered in the air as they stared at him."Greetings," he said,"I am called Piedmon, and I was the one that launched the missiles at your world."
"Why?" Wargreymon asked.
"Because, it will cause a war that will destroy the human civilization, allowing the Digimon to claim the Earth," Piedmon said,"And I will be its king!"
"We have to stop him," Tai said,"Get him Wargreymon!"
Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon charged at Piedmon, but he jumped into the air. He then flipped in the air whipping out his swords. He slashed into Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon's backs. Piedmon then jumped between them, and slammed them with his fists.
"Darn it!" Tai said,"He's creaming them! Come on, Wargreymon."
Wargreymon slashed at Piedmon with his claw, but Piedmon punched Wargreymon in the chin.
"Darn!" Tai shouted, slamming his hands onto the computer counter. The screens changed to a red one with hundreds of 0 and 1 running across it.
"Tai!" Izzy yelled.
"What?" he asked.
"You crashed the computer," Izzy said,"Now it has to reboot!"
T.K. and the rest of his Digidestined team ran into the long hallway in the base. There prison cells lining the walls. All were empty, save for one. "Myotismon?" T.K. asked.
The vampire Digimon raised his head. "I know you, you are Ishida's younger brother."
"That's right," T.K. said,"And we're here to rescue you..."
"Alright!" Izzy said, typing on the keyboard,"We're back on line!"
The image on the computer screen appeared. Izzy sucked a deep breath in, and Tai gasped. On the screen was an image of Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon, floating in a pile of debris. "Where were you two?!" Matt shouted from his screen,"You're sure picked a lousy time to take a lunch break!"
"What happened to them?" Tai asked.
"When you left, Wargreymon lost his processing speed, and Piedmon was able to rip both of them apart!"
"I..I've failed him," Tai said, sadly. He looked at the time that Izzy had placed on the computer screen. "And in eight minutes World War 3 will start, and its my fault!"
Suddenly, in the internet battlefield, more chat room screens dropped down, and all the other Digidestineds appeared on them. "Kari?" Tai asked.
"T.K.?" Matt asked,"Where are you?"
"Where in Gennai's house," T.K said,"And we've got help coming."
Another tunnel entrance opened up. "Now what?" Tai asked. Then, he recognized the figure that emerged from the tunnel. "Myotismon..."
"Myotismon!" Ladydevimon said, happily,"You are free!"
The vampire Digimon floated towards where Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon were slowly coming around. "Yes," he told the screens that were present,"And I have been informed of the situation, how may I be of assistance?"
"We need to find Piedmon," Metalgarurumon said,"But, we don't know where he is."
"I think I may know," Izzy said,"If he was able to launch the U.S. missiles, he must be in the Pentagon."
"I hope you're right," Tai said,"Wargreymon, get to the Pentagon, and stop that clown!"
A tunnel entrance opened and Wargreymon flew into it, followed by Metalgarurumon and Myotismon.
All over the world, everyone that wasn't fighting against the invading Digimon, were watching their computer screens. A high school computer class in America quickly crowded around one of the computers in the room, watching as that member typed away on the keyboard. In Europe, a grade school was also sending Izzy and Joe e-mails. A girl in a hospital room was tracking was watching the three Digimon on her laptop while her roommate was looking on. Buddhist monks, campers in the woods, people from all over the world were watching the battle that would save their world.
After what seemed like forever, the Trinity reached the end of the tunnel that lead to the Pentagon computer system. The inside was shaped like a giant arena, where the thousands of seats were filled with thousands of Mekanorimons, and directly in front of them was a throne shaped seat, where Piedmon sat. "What are those?" Tai asked.
"Piedmon's Army," Ladydevimon said,"Be careful."
"Ha ha ha!" Piedmon laughed,"I am surprised that you managed to find me. However, you're still not going to win this fight!"
"Want to bet?" Tai asked.
"You're afraid of the three of us for some reason," Wargreymon said,"And this Trinity is going to win!"
The Mekanorimon all turned towards the three Digimon and opened fire. They began to doge them. "HA ha!" Piedmon laughed,"Impressive, but, you can't doge them forever!"
Metalgarurumon was pegged in the hind leg, throwing him off balance. The Mekanorimon turned the attacks towards him, blasting mercilessly. Wargreymon flew over to help, but he was attacked also.
"Metalgarurumon, Wargreymon!" Myotismon shouted. He turned at the grinning clown. "Myotismon digivolve to Venom Myotismon!"
Piedmon was slightly surprised, even more so when Venom Myotismon grabbed him by his throat. "Stop firing now, or you will be sorry!"
Piedmon's army stopped, and when the smoke cleared, Wargreymon floated lifelessly, his armor cracked to pieces. Metalgarurumon looked even worse, parts of his armor missing.
"Darn you!" Venom Myotismon shouted, raising his claw, when Piedmon brought his foot up and kicked the massive Mega in the stomach.
Venom Myotismon hovered back, then Piedmon placed his hands together. "Clown Trick!" Venom Myotismon was blown away, the shards of his body floating above Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon.
"Myotismon!" Ladydevimon cried,"No!"
"No..." Tai said, looking at Wargreymon,"No, I have to help him....." He started to reach at the computer screen.
"Tai," Izzy said, his back to him,"The e-mails that are coming in are slowing down your Digimon's speed. I'm rerouting all the incoming e-mails into local memory, that should...Tai?"
He turned around, but his friend was no where in the room. "Where did he.." he turned to the computer screen,"What? How did Tai get inside?"
Tai floated down and landed on top of his Digimon, while Matt landed on top of Metalgarurumon. "Wargreymon," Tai said,"Please....Wargreymon."
"Tai," Matt said,"Why won't he answer me?"
"Keep trying," Tai said, turning back to his Digimon. "Wargreymon, you can't give up yet. Too many people are still counting on you. The missiles are going to fall, and the e-mails keep coming in, they won't stop. I read one from a boy who was just getting out of the hospital after breaking his leg, one from a family that was just reunited after five years apart, one from a girl," he started to cry slightly,"A little girl that just turned five-years-old. All of them as still counting on you! Please, feel their hope, feel their strength!"
Wargreymon coughed slightly, and he opened his eyes. "I..I feel them!"
The particles from Venom Myotismon's body that were formed when Piedmon attacked slowly floated down towards the two Digimon. They merged and entered Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon's body.
"Myotismon's energy is merging with Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon's body," Ladydevimon said.
"But..."Izzy said,"Myotismon was a single being....Hmm."
Wargreymon's shield slammed together, then his body pulled into his head. Out of his head formed a long, tube like body. The same thing happened with Metalgarurumon. The top of the tubes floated until they were parallel to each other.
Suddenly, the walls were covered with small boxes, with images of children on them. The images started to glow, and shoot out beams of light that connected with each other in the center of the two tubes.
"They combined..." Joe said.
All the Digidestined and Ladydevimon watched as a new Digimon was formed. "Part Wargreymon..." Kari said.
"Part Metalgarurumon..." T.K. said.
Ladydevimon nodded." Myotismon's energy has enabled them to Digivolve together to become..."
The new Digimon threw his arms away from in front of his face,"Omnimon!" The new Digimon was big, with Tai riding on his Wargreymon arm, and Matt riding on the shoulder of the Metalgarurumon arm.
"So, "Piedmon said,"The secret of the Trinity is reveild. Get that mix-and-match freak!"
The Mekanorimon fired their laser beams at Omnimon. The fused Digimon lifted his Wargreymon arm, and shot it down, emerging a blade. "Transcended Sword!"
"Hurry!" T.K. shouted.
Omnimon raised his sword, then twirled around, blasting the beams of energy back at the Mekanorimon, destroying a large number of them. He then raised his Metalgarurumon arm, and shot is down, making a cannon emerge. "Supreme Cannon!"
He fired the cannon at the Mekanorimon, destroying a massive circumference, then turned and fired at another group, destroying more. Soon, all the Mekanorimon were gone.
"Tai," Izzy shouted,"Get Piedmon, hurry, we're running out of time!"
"There he is!" Matt said, pointing at the wall,"Omnimon, quick attack!"
Omnimon raised his cannon, but Piedmon jumped out of the way. Omnimon found him again but he jumped out of the way.
"He's too fast for us," Tai said,"Every time we get him in our sights, he jumps somewhere else. "
"We've got to hurry," Matt said,"There's just..."
"...one minute left," the girl in China said.
"...one minute left," the young boy in America said.
"...one minute left," the school class said.
"Squad leader to command," the person in the jet said, spinning in the air,"We were unable to intercept the target, the missile will impact, I repeat, the missile will impact!"
Izzy nervously tapped against the edge of the keyboard, as he glanced up at the timer on the computer screen. "We have the power to destroy him now, but we don't have the time we need to find a way to slow him down. If only we could....that's it!"
"What's it?" Joe asked, from his computer chat box.
"I'm going to infect Piedmon with as many Dark Rings as I can."
"But, they won't work on a mega Digimon..."
"No," Izzy said,"But they will slow him down." Izzy's fingers ran across the keyboard, calling up Sam Ichijoji's computer files. He constructed as many Dark Rings as he could inside the computer system, then raised his finger back. "You're finished!" he yelled, hitting the enter button.
Back inside the stadium, Piedmon landed on the wall. He grinned wickedly to himself as he began to climb up the wall. He moaned loudly when he felt something clamp around his leg. He turned slightly, and felt another thing clamp around his arm. He saw about a dozen of black strips fly out of the tunnel exit and swarm towards him. He tried to get out of the way, but, he found that he now wasn't fast enough. All the dark strips slammed into various places on him and whip around, creating Dark Rings that held him tight.
Omnimon spun around and found Piedmon stuck in place on the wall. "Tai, get him!" Izzy shouted.
Omnimon quickly shot forward, zooming towards Piedmon. "Ten seconds left!" Tai shouted.
"Nine.."
Omnimon flew closer.
"Eight.."
Piedmon got ready to attack.
"Seven..."
In Genai's house, Kari placed her hands together.
"Six..."
T.K. held his breath.
"Five..."
Joe leaned as close as he could to the screen.
"Four..."
Izzy griped tightly to the arms of his chair.
"Three..."
Ladydevimon and Phantomon looked nervously on.
"Two...."
Omnimon was in place. He drew his sword back, and slammed it forward.
"One..."
The sword slammed deeply into Piedmon's head. All was silent, then, Omnimon grinned to himself. "Connection, terminated!" Piedmon growled and his voice grew quiet as the rest of his body melted away.
Izzy looked away from the battle and to the timer on the screen. The last number blinked back and forth from 1 to 2. He smiled slightly to himself, then nearly fainted.
As the missile crashed harmlessly into the Sea of Japan, all Dark Towers around the world vanished, and the Invading Digimon army returned to the Digital World as quickly as they had appeared. The Digidestined cheered and laughed wildly.
Back inside the Kamiya basement, Matt had his mouth over the garbage can. "I...I think I'm going to...lose my lunch."
Tai had the same look on his face. "You weren't on the sword arm."
Suddenly, the room was filled with a bright light, sending all the Digidestined back home. "You did it, Tai!" Kari cheered, running over to him,"You saved us!"
"Matt," T.K. said, "You saved the world."
All through the basement, the Digidestined cheered. Michael gave Willis a hi-five, Izzy and Joe shared a handshake, and Catherine and Derek smiled at each other. T.K. and Kari found themselves staring at each other for a second, then T.K. ran over and hugged Kari tightly, twirling her around in the air.
Tai smiled proudly as he watched the Digidestined celebrate. He then sighed, "I just wish you were here to see this, Mimi. I loved you so much, why did you have to die?"
"Tai," Sora said, walking up to him,"Are you okay?"
"Yeah," he said, sighing,"I..I just wish that Mimi was here."
Sora hesitated for a second. She then took a deep breath and kissed him lightly on the cheek. Tai's eyes were open wide in shock. "W-why did you do that?" he asked.
Sora started to turn a red that was darker than her hair. "I....I guess you were just so depressed, that...that I was afraid you were going to do something....I'm sorry."
"No...no," Tai said, a slight smile on his face,"I kind of like it."
The two started laughing, which Matt saw from across the room. He growled fiercly, and clenched his fist. "Matt?" T.K. asked, walking towards him,"Are you okay?"
"Get the team ready," he said,"We're going to attack the Kamiya team, tonight!"
"W-what?" T.K. asked, shocked,"B-but, we don't need to fight them anymore. We worked together so well... We can even be their friends, if we try."
Matt started at him. "They are still our enemies! We attack, tonight!"
END OF PART 11
