For the Tamers, that envoy didn't take much time in arriving. Less than a minute after the rocket had blasted off, the gateway came to life and a giant red 'bird' flew out of it. It wasn't long before Takato realized who it was. "Grääny?!?" (A/N hope I spelled that right) "You look...different, more powerful." Grääny did look different. It was bigger than a bus, and its wingspan was about 20 feet. In the middle of each wing was a small head, similar to its main one, but with closed eyes. Near the rear were wings about the size of its original ones, except they had rudders on top. "Yes," Grääny said, "I have digivolved." "I knew you were really a digimon, but how; you sacrificied yourself to allow us to mode change." "When Guilmon dedigivolved, most of the data that had made up me was released, and Ebonwumon (I think that's the turtle soveriegn's name) reformed me." By that time it had landed, and it opened its mouth and asked the Tamers to get inside. Their partner digimon were already there. "Hold on tight!" Grääny closed its mouth and headed into the gateway.

When they exited, they saw nothing but complete and total desolation. What was clearly once a bustling metropolis had been reduced to nothing but crumbling ruins. Even the sky was dark, as though the sun had ceased to shine. No sooner had they begun to take in their surroundings than 11 humans and an equal number of digimon fell out of the gate. One look and the Tamers knew that these were their heroes, their idols. The digidestined were a couple years older than they remembered, but it was clearly them. Both groups of people began to galk at each other, which was interrupted by Kiowata appearing out of nowhere. "I see you have all arrived safely. If you will direct your gaze over there, you will see your enemy." "It's-it's him." Kiowata continued, "As Mr. Ichijoji has noticed, it has taken the form of Milleniumon. I have done my part, it is now up to you to do yours." "Right! Agumon!" "Agumon, Warp Digivolve!!" "Tentomon, Warp Digivolve!!" "Patamon, Warp Digivolve!!" "Paildramon, Mega Digivolve!!" "BioMerge Activate!!" In a matter of seconds, the sky above the ruined city was filled with mega digimon. "May the Great Spirit (Native American name for God) smile upon you and your digimon, and may we one day smoke the peace pipe together and look back on this battle as the most glorious of victories!" Kiowata shouted as they all charged into battle against their common foe.

"Take this: Metal Wolf Claw!" MetalGarurumon fired off hundreds of missles, and 'Milleniumon' was soon covered with solid ice. "Here, let me thaw you out; Terra Force!" No sooner had WarGreymon's attack broken the ice than 'Milleniumon' fired the cannons on its back, sending both digimon flying into a nearby skyscraper, which instantly collapsed. "Oh no, WarGreymon! Huh?" Tai looked down and saw that his heart was glowing with his crest symbol. The same thing happened to Matt. They aimed their digivices at the wreckage, and Omnimon burst out of it and began attacking. Unfortunately, even Omnimon's attacks had no effect on their enemy, and its aim was impossibly good. Kiowata was having no better luck with his laser guns. "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!" "What was that?" "Look, something's happening to Kiowata, he's...disapearing." "When the being wins in my time, I will cease to exist, and this battle will be for naught." Kiowata said, in great pain. "My worst fears are true, it can be defeated by nothing less than a Supreme level digimon." "Supreme level?" "None exist in your time, however, if your destinies are realized and the ultimate power source is unlocked, then you can forge one from your own indominable spirits. I will show you that which you will need to know and cannot deny if you are to defeat the creature." he said, extending a hand towards two of the digidestined. "I had promised to let you find out for yourself, but there is no other way." Suddenly, those two stared straight for a long period of time, as if they were seeing something so vital that they could not look away. "Remember this, digidestined," Kiowata said as he faded away into nothing, "You may now be fated to lose, but if all have faith in the power you have within, your destiny can be changed. If you do so, I might ret-" "He's gone." "No, he never was."
