In the last chapter:
T.K. and Kari were thinking about their feelings for each other, (also, Devimon sees their thoughts and plans on tearing them apart and destroying them by using Angewomon as an experimental guinea pig.) and how proud they are of their digimon. T.K. was more aware of the fact that if ever Angemon and Angewomon were to fight, it would tear them apart. At the DigiDestined's reunion camp in the DigiWorld, Kari asks T.K. what he thinks of Angewomon. Stay tuned to find out what his answer is…
"I've been training her so hard recently. She's so powerful and loyal… she would go to any length to protect me. I would do anything for her in return, too… do you have the same partnership with Angemon?"
"Of course," T.K. answered without hesitation as soon as he heard Angemon's name. "He is my lifelong partner, my best friend, we've become so close and we would do anything for each other."
"That's good," Kari smiled at him, wriggling closer.
Suddenly, Tai and Matt popped up from behind them and almost put their hearts in their throat.
"Ooh… together alone," Matt taunted.
"I sense a bit of romance in the air…" Tai held his hands out dramatically as if he was performing a romance piece by Shakespeare. Kari and T.K. both frowned at their childish attitudes.
"Oh, cut it out! We were talking about Angemon and Angewomon!" Kari blushed, although she was telling them the truth.
"Yeah…" T.K. nodded. "How we've become so close to them and how loyal they are…"
"Hey, you four!" Davis shouted, beckoning them to come. "We're going on a small hike then we're going to set up camp. Hurry up!"
"I hate hikes!" Mimi complained, linking her arm around Sora's. "There are bugs and worms! Plus the humidity is bad for my skin!"
"Not only that, who knows what kind of bad Digimon are out there," Cody added hesitantly.
Nevertheless, they walked on, looking around them as the rainforest seemed to grow.
"I'm tired!" Agumon complained, falling onto the ground.
"Hang on Agumon!" Gabumon and Gomamon rushed over, helping him up.
But once they did, a hammer flew out of nowhere, hitting them and they fell down themselves, bringing poor Agumon with them. The hammer flew back to an ugly green hideous creature, with long white hair falling upon his back and huge threatening fangs jutting out of his mouth, whose face to them was all too familiar.
"Ogremon!" all of them shouted.
"Hi DigiDestined," he said mockingly. "I'm glad you remember me, for you will also well remember that the last time we battled you had very well defeated me. Well, kiddies, it's only fair if I get to crush you too."
Agumon ran forward but Patamon and Gatomon stopped him.
"We'll handle this," they whispered. "We won't take chances. If Ogremon is here Devimon can't be far. And we're the only ones who can stand up to Devimon."
'Those two are more intelligent than I feared,' Devimon thought, floating above watching them.
"Patamon, Digivolve to… ANGEMON!"
"Gatomon, Digivolve to… ANGEWOMON!"
'Now's my chance," Devimon thought, shouting, "TIME FREEZE!"
Suddenly, all of time was frozen. Nobody moved except for him and Ogremon. Colors became dull and hard as time itself hardened, and all things became adamantine. Silence ate away all noise, and Devimon flew down and stood in front of Angewomon.
"Here it is, boss," Ogremon handed him a small sack filled with a soft purple powder.
Devimon held out his hand as Ogremon poured some of it onto his hand, then held it out to Angewomon as he gently blew it towards her.
"When you absorb this mystic powder, you shalt find the love to hate, though not aware of ancient wonder, you may know what lies your fate. Come, Ogremon. TIME PROCEED!"
As Devimon and Ogremon left, the time swirled back into motion, abruptly jolting the DigiDestined and Digimon into life. The whole group awakened without missing a beat, unaware of what had just happened.
"Where's Ogremon?" Angemon looked around confusedly. Suddenly, Angewomon turned against him so violently he was taken aback.
"If you were watching, you would have seen, you clumsy oaf!" she yelled.
Everyone in the surrounding was silenced. Everyone was too shocked at what they had just heard to say anything, unaware that the mystic powder was taking effect.
"You let him get away, you STUPID!" she shouted again.
"Me…?! You weren't watching either! Why are you blaming me?"
"That's right!" T.K. yelled, forgetting all common sense. "He didn't do anything wrong!"
"How dare you speak to Angewomon like that?" Kari stepped forward angrily.
"Because Angemon is right. He is my lifelong partner and I know him better than you do. I would do anything to defend him from stuck-up snobs like your Angewomon!"
"You're the stuck-up snob!" She gave him a furious slap across his face. "I will do anything to defend my Angewomon from the influence of total jerks like you and your Angemon! Let's go Angewomon!"
"You slapped my brother! You'll pay for that you sissy!" Matt yelled at Kari.
"Don't you call her a sissy!" Davis and Tai moved forward defensively.
"Well, obviously she is isn't she. She doesn't have any other defense except to slap T.K. because she knows he can't hit her back just 'coz she's a girl!"
"Don't lay a hand on her!" Davis yelled, stepping in front of Kari over-protectively.
"Yeah!" Tai pushed him quite hard. "T.K. only has himself to blame for calling Angewomon a stuck-up snob!"
Matt pushed him back. "This wouldn't have happened if you had been watching too you dork!" He copied Angewomon's voice in a taunting manner.
"Don't make fun of Angewomon and don't call Tai a dork!" Davis stepped in front of both Tai and Kari, trying to be a hero.
"Enough! Let's all settle this like-" Joe began.
"NO!" Tai, Kari, Matt, Davis, T.K., Angewomon and Angemon yelled in unison.
"Can you seven settle your differences later?" Joe said, more pissed. "Let's go set up camp!"
"Hmph, see if I want to share a tent with you tonight," Tai and Davis said to Matt the same time Matt said it to them.
"You won't be hearing me talk to you anymore. You just won't listen, and I don't want you to hear me," T.K. and Kari said to each other in unison.
"You won't be on my Christmas present list this year, I can guarantee it," Angewomon and Angemon snapped in unison as they turned back to Patamon and Gatomon.
Joe rolled his eyes as the seven of them walked on with their noses in the air. Although T.K. hasn't realized, his premonition of the conflict between Angemon and Angewomon had become for real.
To be continued…
