Goku: Hi everybody!

Piccolo: First, the driving test and now this? Isn't that enough, Son?

Coral: By the way, Goku's full name is Son Goku for all you DBZ newbies.

Max: So, what brings you two here?

Goku: We want to check out the Tamers fic. Plus, we just got back from that drivers exam. Whew, it's such a pain.

Piccolo: Driving isn't my style I should have resumed with my training.

Coral: At least, you tried something new. Hey, Kaka-err, Goku. I don't know what I should call you. I am a saiyan after all.

Goku: It doesn't matter what you call me. I'm already used to Vegeta calling me that name.

Coral: Well, since I don't want to associate myself with that jerk, I'll just call you Goku.

Goku: Fair enough.

SSJ4T: Is that all, because we should get started with the fic. All you readers go and read the fic. You'll get a kick out of it! Enjoy the fic!

[Digimon Tamers Opening "The Biggest Dreamer" plays]

Indramon's Horn of Desolation! The Card Out of the Blue!

The Shinjuku Central Park is just as peaceful and quiet as ever. Now Devas have been attacking as of late. So this gave the Tamers a chance to strategize their plans and think of an off to combat against the next unsuspecting deva appearance. But they realized that each deva that has appeared have been much stronger than the last.

Rika, Henry and Takato were discussing this issue over at the park, while Jeri, Kazu and Kenta were playing with Guilmon and splashing water on him. Guilmon was able to splash water back over at them. He splashes water over at Kazu and Jeri, while Kenta stood there laughing. But that would not last long as Guilmon lifts his tail and then slashes water onto Kenta, which made the other two children laugh.

Just on the other side, The Tamers, along with Terriermon and Renamon, were standing by the trees while discussing the deva issue.

"Those Devas keep popping out everywhere. I wonder why they such a vendetta against us. Why did they even want to fight the digimon and nothing else?" Henry pondered.

"Well, its our job as Tamers to stop these Devas," replied Takato.

"Ugh. That's so ridiculous. Why does it have to be just us that have to stop them? Why can't you two go work with those Digi-dodoes to help you? I'm expecting something better for a challenge," said Rika.

"Well, it's going to be impossible if we leave the Devas to continue their destructive wave of terror. This Dark One they foretell is really serious about destroying humankind," said Renamon.

"Hey, Takato! Come in and play with us! You're making us look bad over here," Kazu cried out.

"Come and get wet! You look so lost over there," Kenta said.

"I'll be there in a minute," said Takato, "You want to join us, Henry?"

"Sorry, but, I got other things to do. I'll catch you later, ok?"

Henry goes walking off with Terriermon following at his side. The goggle boy looks over at Rika.

"What about you, you…"

But as soon as he was about to finish asking his questions, Rika simply goes walking off as if she were already saying that she 'didn't want to play'. Takato looks back over towards the lake where Guilmon and the other three children were playing.

"Watch out, guys! I'm coming in!"

Watching from high above a tree branch, Impmon was looking down at them with a very bored look on his face. He couldn't stand seeing Guilmon being used as a pet towards the children, as he likes to call them. They were just pets in his view.

"Jeez. Just how long are they going to keep this act up? I'm about to hurl over here!"

***************************************************************************************

Meanwhile, back over at TK's apartment, the pehone rang and TK went over to pick it up.

"Hello. Takaishi and Kamiya residence. TK speaking."

"Wow, little bro. You still haven't learned have you."

"Matt?! Is that really you?!"

"You bet. Mimi and I are just arriving back from our tour. I discussing this with Mimi and we wanted to know if we could stop by in town to visit. You know to see ya'll and to catch up on things. We haven't seen each other for a long while anyway."

"We sure haven't. You're more than welcome to come by for a visit. Kari and I will be here practically all day."

"So. Did you get by third base and made the home run yet?"

"Huh?"

"C'mon. You even said that you would get by third base since the last time we saw each other. So, how did she like it?"

"Oh, yeah. Third base. Lets just say, that I've already made a couple of 'homeruns' over these past couple of months."

"Man, TK! You're such a pimp! Ha! I never knew you had it in you!"

"Neither did I."

"Well, you and Kari are going to get a huge surprise once we get there. You'll be flipped."

"Well. I'm looking forward to that. So, is your hair still the same or did you have to cut it?"

"Leave the hair out, dude. Besides, rock stars really need to keep their hair and Mimi is really enjoying the tours. I never knew that she would become a fan of rock music. Your going to notice some changes in Mimi once we get there."

"Well, just stop by anytime. We'll be waiting. I'll tell Kari the good news."

"Alright man. Keep in touch and keep nailing those 'home runs'. Later."

"See ya."

TK hangs up the phone and Patamon flies over towards him.

"Who was that TK?"

"That was Matt. Him and Mimi are going to stop by and visit. They just got back from a big tour," said TK.

"Cool. That means Palmon and Gabumon are coming over too."

"Oh yeah. I really need to talk to Palmon. We haven't seen each other in ages," said Gatomon, "I wonder how she's doing."

"Did you just say Matt and Mimi are coming over," Kari asked.

"Yeah and they're coming from a big tour. Isn't that just great?"

"That's great, TK. We should really have a big Digi-Destined dinner, what do you say?"

"Sounds great. We should decide what we should make though."

"How about some of that homemade pizza that I made a couple of weeks ago?"

"Cool, but this time let's leave out the anchovies."

*************************************************************************************

Elsewhere, Impmon was seen jumping onto nearby rooftop houses with a huge smirk on his face. He was bouncing from rooftop onto rooftop, but little did he realize that he was being followed. Calumon was the culprit following him. Impmon stops at his tracks and then turns around to face Calumon with an angry look on his face.

"Would you quit following me?! You little puff-cheeked butterball!"

"I was just going to see what you were doing. Looks like your looking for some people to play with."

"Yeah, play with humans, that just makes so retch…"

But just as he was about to finish up his sentence, he could hear a low laugh coming from another direction. He turns towards a nearby parking lot and could hear more dark laughter. He sees a digital field forming and goes over to see who was laughing.

"Who's laughing at me?! C'mon show yourself! Al right! I'm coming over there myself!"

Impmon hops over several rooftops in order to make it over towards the parking lot and jumps right through the digital field. He lands onto the ground and then looks towards the figure that was laughing at him.

"Who's in there?! Come out and show yourself, coward! You were laughing at me. Who are you? Aren't you going to face me!"

"You mean me?"

Impmon looks right up at what seemed to be a horse, but this one was as tall as a small house. It was purple and had a shell on his back. He continued to give a low chuckle, which infuriated Impmon even more.

"Would you stop doing that already?! Jackass!"

**************************************************************************************

Joe was taking an hour break after a class he had. He looked at his watch and had plenty of time to get a bite to eat. Gomamon stuck his head through Joe's backpack.

"Ack! Can't breathe! Why don't these packs get zippers which leaves holes to breath through?"

"You know I can't let my fellow classmates take a look at you."

"I don't know. Those girls might jump all over this cute lil thing. Why don't you introduce me to any of these girls?!"

"For obvious seasons. They'll think you're too adorable."

"Hey, can you blame them?"

Suddenly, Joe's digivice started reacting. He looked through it and was picking up a signal reading. Gomamon felt an uneasy ki from a hear distance. His fur was starting to stand at its ends.

"What's wrong, Gomamon?"

"I'm sensing a really strong power. It's got to be another Deva. TK and Kari told us to keep an eye out for these things."

"That's right. They told us last night."

"Let's go check this one out! Last one there has to clean up the house!"

Gomamon scurries off towards the Deva's location. Joe ran to catch up to his digimon partner.

"Hey, wait up! You run pretty fast when you get excited."

**************************************************************************************

Back over at Hypnos, inside the underground cyberspace, the people were now tracking down signals coming from a Wild One, which happened to be the horse creature.

"Sir, we're picking up several huge signal readings from that just recently came from the Juggernaut core."

"Riley? Are you getting anymore readings on this anomaly?!"

"No, its already bio-emerged and it seems as though this Wild One isn't alone. There's signal coming from another one."

"Another one?!"

***************************************************************************************

The horse looks right down over towards Impmon with a sneer. Impmon could only look up and gulp, but he kept his fears to himself and didn't want the horse to sense his fear. The horse continues on laughing.

"Would you just stop laughing at me?!"

"I'm laughing for a good reason. I just can't stop laughing at such a pitiful digimon you turned out to be."

"You take that back!"

"I just don't see why you are unable to digivolve since you already have a human at your side, traitor."

Impmon gasps and then looks back to the old days when he was an actual partner to two little twins.

Flashback

The twins looked over at each other angrily and were tugging on Impmon as if it was a contest of tug of war, and Impmon was used as the rope in this situation. The twins were arguing on who should have authority and ownership over Impmon, but they seem to not want to compromise this time around.

"Impmon is mine," the boy exclaimed.

"No, he's mine! I saw him first," the girl replied angrily.

"Finders keepers. He's with me. He's mine!"

"Impmon, you better tell him that you're mine."

"Take it back. You tell her that you're mine."

"Impmon! Impmon!"

"Impmon!!"

"Ack!! Knock it off!!"

End of Flashback

Impmon gasps even further and then sniffs himself. The horse simply laughs at him and was able to smell the stench of human order coming from Impmon, which brought the final conclusion that Impmon was hanging around with humans.

"You got a human partner, but yet, you are still unable to digivolve. Well its too bad, you'll never be able to digivolve. Never."

Impmon could only look over at the giant with angry fueling in his eyes and his fists clenching. There was a low growl coming from Impmon as he punches the ground.

"Stop it! I don't want to listen to you anymore! You better butt out of my life. I'm not the human lover that you claim for me to be."

Just then, both Rika and Renamon made it over towards the Digital Field in time as they saw both Impmon and the horse confronting each other.

"Another Deva? Lets check this guy out."

Rika pulls out her D-Ark and then quickly gets a hologram image of the horse, plus several statistics on him.

[Indramon. Ultimate-level. Deva. Special Attack: Horn of Desolation]

Joe and Gomamon found the Digital Field. Gomamon peered through the fog and sensed two digimon. The curious sea mammal scurries through the Digital Field.

"Wait! You don't know what might be in there! Man, I need to jog a little more."

"Who the heck is that guy?" Rika asked. "It must be another one of the Digi-Destined…"

Gomamon finds himself in a confrontation between Impmon and the Deva. He looks across and notices Renamon.

"Just what the heck is this?" Gomamon asked. "I really need to get out more."

"Well. It seems that you brought friends and pathetic human along. I must say. You sure can defend yourself, weakling," Indramon said.

"These two digi-poodles are just here to watch me pummel you into oblivion! You just better watch your mouth, mule face!"

"Who's he calling a digi-poodle?!" Gomamon thought.

"Ha. We shall meet again."

With that said, Indramon slowly vanished into the digital field and he managed to say a few words just before he was departing away from the battleground.

"You do not belong here in this plane of existence, weakling. We shall meet again."

Impmon looks on as the digital field floated away and he growled under his breathe. He turns around to face Renamon and Gomamon with an angry look on his face.

"Yo, fox-face! You and that human friend should have not come here! I was about to fight him alone! I don't need your help! This was none of your business. The same goes for you too, pee-wee!"

"Pee-Wee? At least, I didn't get punked out like you did," Gomamon snapped. "Pee-Wee, my butt."

"I'll have to agree with him, Impmon. You did get punked out. You're simply a rookie. You are not even strong enough to battle a powerful deva such as Indramon. You can't digivolve."

"Who ever heard of a digimon that doesn't digivolve?" Gomamon replied.

"Who freaking cares?! I'm out of here!"

Impmon goes jumping up and over a nearby fence as he goes heading out leaving both Renamon and Gomamon behind. He managed to shout out something before leaving.

"I will prove to the world that I am the strongest!"

"Is he delirious? Does he really think that he can become the strongest?" Rika asked.

"Either that or he's got a serious case of paranoia," Joe said.

"That's his opinion and in his mind, he thinks he's the most powerful being in two worlds. I say we just let him believes at who he is. But reality will come back to strike him."

"Like they say, lightning tends to strike you twice," Gomamon remarked.

"I don't think that's how it goes," Joe said. "Oh by the way, you're that Rika girl, right?"

"Yeah and why do you care? You're one of those Digi-Destined, aren't you?"

"Whoa. Whoa. Some attitude you got there. Yeah, I'm a Digi-Destined. This is Gomamon. He's a bit of a wise ass."

"At least this wise ass can throw in a little humor here and there. I'm quite charming."

"Uh huh," Renamon replied. "Rika?"

"Geez. I've never meet anybody so cocky, yet, brave at the same time. Well, Impmon better realize that he's making a big mistake at messing around with these Devas," Rika thought.

**************************************************************************************

Back over at the underground cyberspace network, the Hypnos group was able to tap into the Deva communications. Riley was the first to inform Yamaki of this discovery.

"Sir, there is something that you should check this out. I was able to send a virus on the signal that I located. And I just received something from the signal itself."

Yamaki looked at a monitor and was reading through some old, binary writing that looked like codes, but Yamaki was able to quickly translate them and was shocked at what he discovered.

"Devas… An invasion of Devas?"

Suddenly, the group looked over to see Yamaki banging on the monitor and letting out some insane laughter.

"Heh. Heh… Just as I thought, these digimon communicate through primitive binary machine lanuage. This Deva language was easy to translate. It can even be translatable by "more evolved humans."

Yamaki finally began to snap as he roared and kicked away a nearby chair that was sitting next to him, in order to let out all of his frustrations.

***************************************************************************************

Back over at the park, Takato and his friends were still playing with Guilmon. They were now playing a new game of hide and seek. Takato started it off by kicking a can and Guilmon went over to attempt to catch it. This allowed Takato and his friends to go hiding somewhere within the park forest.

"He won't be able to find us in here," Kazu said.

"Lets not be sure. He has a good sense of smell."

"Yeah, he can sure smell your stinky arm pits all the way from over there. Geez, now I can even smell them," Kazu remarked, "Ack. You're making me choke, chumley."

"Ha. Ha. Huh, hey. Who's that?"

Takato goes pointing out over towards a weird-looking boy with a small hat and a rather, oval-shaped head. Takato and Kazu were looking at the boy and were not too sure of what to make of him.

"Have you seen that kid before?" asked Takato.

"Never. This is the first time I've seen him. He must be new. He must be one of your friends," Kazu said.

"No way. My friends don't look as weird as he does."

The mysterious boy turned around and then looked right over towards the boys. A lifeless look was coming from his rather small, beady eyes.

Just then, Guilmon was able to find the boys.

"Hey! I found you! Huh? Is he apart of the game too? I've never seen him."

"Neither have we. But, lets at least talk to him. He seems friendly enough," Takato said.

"Yeah, if you were demented or something," remarked Kazu.

Kenta and Jeri came running by as they caught up to the other three. They soon turned to see the strange-looking boy.

"Is in the game too?" asked Jeri.

"No, but we're going to try to least talk to him. Hey there, what's your name, kid?" Takato asked.

Suddenly, the strange-looking boy gave a loud shout and it caused the Tamers to cover their ears frantically and caused them to jump back. The boy laughs at them and then runs away deep into the forest.

"Whoa! That is one weird kid," Kazu said, "He must have problems."

"Um, so, are we still going to play or what? Who's it anyways," asked Kenta.

Takato was now beginning to become a little more suspicious of the boy, but Guilmon didn't seem so comfortable when the boy was around, as if Guilmon knew something about him that the other children don't know.

On the other side, a boy with a pyramid-shaped necklace was putting together what looked like a card deck. Yugi was setting up the last of his new cards to modify his entire deck. The Battle City tournament was well less than a week away.

"I must enter this tournament to face my destiny. I'll do whatever it takes to find out the hidden secrets of the past, Yami. I owe this to you."

"Thank you, Yugi. We also must beware of the recent monster appearances. I sense a great power behind it. A power not even I can comprehend."

"Whatever it maybe, we'll face it together."

**************************************************************************************

Back over in the city, Impmon was causing havoc as usual and doing what bullies usually do, and that was picking on others. This time around, he was jumping on cars on the road.

"Ha! Ha! You can't do anything to me, you pathetic humans! I own you! I own you! You don't own me! Hey! What's this, a girl with an ice cream cone?"

Impmon jumps down and lands right in front of a little girl, who was eating her ice cream. She looks over at Impmon with a look of bewilderment.

"I'll take that! Thank you."

Impmon snatches the ice cream cone out of her hands and with one gulp, swallows the ice cream cone. The little girl began to cry as the father looks down at Impmon angrily.

"Hey! I paid for that bubble gum raspberry nut crunch!"

"Huh? How about a Ba-Da Boom upside the head crunch?!"

Impmon shoots out a fireball over at the man's shoulder, which caused him to start to panic and run off with his daughter. Then the whole crowd started to panic and run away in fear of what Impmon was going to do next.

"And I've got one for everybody!! Ha! Ha!"

The little virus starts shooting out fireballs towards the crowd, as they continued to panic in fear. Impmon started to laugh maniacally and making sure everybody got his message.

***************************************************************************************

"So, what are we going to do about this, Joe? We have one of those Deva creeps out there. There's no telling when he'll come wrecking havoc."

"I don't know. We just have to keep our eyes peeled and make sure to keep your senses alert. Man, I still haven't gotten my lunch."

"Better hurry. We have twenty minutes until the next class starts. Sucks to be you, huh?"

"Well, first things first! We'll check this Deva later. I just hate running back and forth!"

"I don't know. I think it's the perfect exercise."

Joe sprints off into the square market center to grab himself some lunch, but he was forced to run back to the university to get to his next class. School life has and always will be a pain in the rear.

**************************************************************************************

Back over at TK's apartment home, TK was sitting on the couch while watching television as he waited for his brother to eventually arrive. Just as he was about to go to the kitchen to help Kari put the finishing touches on the pizza, the doorbell rang.

"I'll get it!"

TK walks over towards the door and then opens it to see none other than Matt and Mimi. Matt comes charging in and gives TK a side headlock while TK was struggling to release himself from the hold.

"Who's your, daddy? Who's your daddy, TK?"

"Heh. Not you."

TK goes and takes Matt down with a leg sweep, while at the same time, releasing the headlock. TK was catching his breath as he drops an elbow on Matt. Mimi looks on with a smile on her face while walking in with Gabumon and Palmon.

"And he's down for the count!" exclaimed Gabumon.

"Whoa, looks like I beat you this time around, Matt."

"You were just lucky."

"Yeah, right."

"Mimi! Welcome back," Kari said.

The two girls exchanged hugs as Kari looked down at what Mimi was holding in her hands. It looked like a blanket of some sort.

"Don't mind me asking but what's in the blanket," Patamon asked.

"Oh, well this is the surprise that I have been wanting to show you for all this time," Mimi said, "Behold, our little boy, Dimitri."

The group all gasped as they looked over towards the blanket. Mimi unveiled the blanket and inside was a little baby boy with eyes much like her father's, light blue just like the blue heavens. And her face looked just like her mother's plus a small patch of blonde hair was visible.

"Aww, he's so cute! So, how long have you had him," Kari said as she held little Dimitri in her arms.

"About seven months. I really never expected to be a mother or have any kids. But I learned to accept it. I'm glad you like him."

"That's great. We forgot to mention that Ken and Yolei are staying with us for a month. So they should get back here in an hour or so."

"We met them while we were in tour over in Tokyo. And their little girl is adorable," Mimi said.

"Well, how does it feel being a father, Matt?"

"All I got to say is that its hard work and make that you always look after your future kids."

"Have you and Gabumon been training during these past few years?"

"Practically all the time when we don't have rehearsal or shows to perform in. We've practically perfected the ability to fuse. It's unbelievable. You should see it, but have you been keeping up?"

"Well… I… Kari and I have been going easy these past few years…"

"Oh that's too bad. Don't worry. You two are fast learners anyways. You proved it when we were fighting Virus. And Kari really proved all of us wrong."

"Thanks for the compliment, Matt."

"I smell pizza. Is that what we are having for dinner," asked Gabumon.

"It sure is," Kari replied. "It will be done in a few minutes. You guys take your seats. We really need to catch up on our lives. It's been a long while."

"I agree. So Palmon, has Mimi been a good mother?" Gatomon asked.

"I really never thought about that," Palmon replied, "But she's been fantastic."

"Wow! Your own son eventually becomes a very strong fighter over in the future time period," TK said, "It must feel really cool."

"It is. You can never imagine how much he has grown over these few months," Mimi said, "But that's no surprise. He's a hero in his future time. I really hope he's doing well."

"Yeah, I sure miss him," said Matt, "And I almost treated him like dirt."

"But the bottom line is that you loved him as a son," Kari said, "And he will always think about us. Remember, he even said that he would come to us if we ever needed his help."

Matt nodded in agreement and could easily remember those seven years ago when he and Dimitri were teaming up against the evil artificial, Virus. And he could also remember when he went off after Virus nearly killed his son.

"Dimitri. Whatever you are. I just hope you and your mother are doing well in the future world. I'll never forget you. Thanks."

"Alright! Pizza is ready," Kari stated.

"Yeah!!"

***************************************************************************************

Back over at the center of the city, there were a group of cop cars surrounding a small car with Impmon standing on top of it. Each officer pulled out their pistols as they pointed over towards Impmon. But the devious little rookie just smiled at their attempts.

"Put your hands up in the air! You have the right to remain silent!"

"Ha! You really think that those toy guns are going to scare me off! You guys must be a bunch of idiots if you think pissy ass toys are going to shoo me away. So, here's a little present I got for ya'll."

Impmon quickly smiles and a small flame appears at the tip of his finger. He tosses it over towards the cops as they scattered. Impmon simply laughs at their futile attempts.

"And here's another for ya!"

But just as he was about to throw the flame over to the cops, a mysterious figure appears out of nowhere and snatches up Impmon with lighting quick speed. The cops were caught off guard, as they were ready to open fire.

The figure tosses Impmon into a nearby underground bridge. The figure turned out to be Renamon, who was looking down at Impmon. Renamon was holding onto the back of his bandana.

"Impmon. Stop trying to think that you are stronger. You are being blind. You are only making matters worse and getting hurt. Is that what you want?"

"Well, at least, I'm not like you while you take orders from that weakling human. I don't need any human partners!"

"But she was the only one that helped me to digivolve."

"I don't care if I wanted to digivolve or not! The truth is that I don't need anybody! You got that, fox face? I'm glad that I left those little brats behind!"

"Impmon?! Did you just say that you once had a partner?"

Impmon was quickly caught off guard at what she just said. He wrenches back and then punches Renamon right in her face. Impmon jumps down while Renamon was rubbing her bruised cheek. Impmon was kneeling down onto the ground and pounding his fist while crying.

"I want to get stronger! I want to digivolve! I want to reach the next evolution! I don't care what it takes! I will have it!"

Suddenly, Renamon turned around and noticed a digital field appearing far off in the distance. She could feel a nearby ki presence of a digimon.

"Its a digital field. He's back…"

"Huh?"

***************************************************************************************

Fortunately for Joe, his class was cut short due to an on-campus activity. This gave him a chance to take it easy for the rest of the day. He walks off campus and starts his walk towards the parking lot across the street.

"Another boring drive back home we go…"

"It couldn't be that bad. I managed to burn some CDs to make our drive a bit more enjoyable."

Suddenly, Gomamon felt tense and turned towards the left side of the parking lot. He felt the presence of the same Deva, Indramon. Joe didn't need to be alerted either, since his digivice was going off.

"Man, there's never a dull day here in this city, is there? Gomamon. It's back to action for us!"

"About time, too! Ladies and gentlemon, Gomamon has left retirement!"

**************************************************************************************

Over in town, people were starting to panic as they were running away from the digital field. Rika pushes through the crowds as she was heading towards the digital field as fast as she could.

"Ugh. There's never a dull day here."

***************************************************************************************

Henry was about to depart from the train as he got off and then a signal was quickly picking up from his D-Ark. He knew that a Deva was nearby and he luckily had Terriermon with him.

"There just never seem to be a dull day around here. Oh well, no rest for the wary."

The boy headed out towards the location of the digital field.

***************************************************************************************

Takato was sitting over at the park with Guilmon after his friends had just left for the day. Just then, Calumon comes hopping by.

"Hey, Calumon. Whatca doing here?" Takato asked.

"Looking for somebody to play with. And looks like you could use some fun."

"Sorry but I already played with a couple of friends of mine. I'm pooped out. But, I do got a question for you, Calumon."

"What do you want to know?" asked Calumon.

"I want to know if you have anything to do with the digivolutions for our digimon. I mean, they only digivolve when your around. Why is that?"

"Hmmm. Beats me?" replied a very confused Calumon.

"I mean. What if the digimon were able to digivolve when you're not around," said Takato.

Unfortunately, this only saddened Calumon as he turned away in sadness.

"Ohhh, so you don't want me around?"

"Why do I always get stuck with the most difficult digimon?"

Just then, Takato's D-Ark started going off and then he looks over at it as picks up an energy signal. Guilmon sniffs the air and feels a powerful energy level over in the city. Guilmon heads off with Takato chasing him along.

"There's never a dull day around here!"

**************************************************************************************

Back over at the middle of the city and within the digital field, Impmon was standing off while facing against the great Indramon. Rika and Renamon stood at a corner while watching the rookie attempt to face off against the ultimate-leveled Deva.

"Alright! Now I'm going to show you all, who is the strongest! I'm going to teach this punk a lesson! I hope your ready for a whooping, you ass clown!"

Indramon just stood there while chuckling to himself at the incompetence of Impmon.

"Now! Get ready for your biggest whooping! And you two better stay out of this!"

"But Impmon, you're simply no match for him. You're facing a ultimate-level Deva. You're signing your own death warrant."

Just as Renamon was about to approach him, but Impmon quickly turned to face her and tosses a fireball over at her. This stopped Renamon at her tracks.

"I don't need your help or your pity. Now stay out of my way!"

"I'd be happy to take you two myself."

"Hey! She has nothing to do with it! It's just you and me! Lets get this started!"

Impmon starts to power up as an aura forms around him and he places his two fingers on his forehead. He then concentrates on a form of energy and points down to the ground. A medium-sized fireball hovers from the ground and stops in front of Impmon. He pushes back and then shoots it out towards Indramon. As the fireball hit Indramon, it only fizzled on his armor as Indramon chuckled.

"Ooo! That tickled."

"What?! Its not possible!"

With that said, Indramon rears back and then delivers a devastating kick to the face of Impmon. The impact of the giant's foot sends Impmon flying backwards. Impmon slowly gets to his feet and runs over at him, but Indramon quickly kicks him away again.

"Ha! You're just a weakling! Ya, hear me, you purple pony! Your nothing but a weakling!"

"Well shall see, you little traitor."

Indramon rears back once again and delivers another kick to the face of Impmon. Indramon looks down and smiles with satisfaction.

"So, what do you got to say? Any last words before I absorb your data?"

"Yeah. Your kicks are so weak that a freaking old lady could hit harder with a bag of groceries! I bet your so-called Dark One is one better! Ha! Ha!"

"Grr! I will not allow you to insult my master."

With that said, Indramon delivers yet another kick to the face to Impmon, sending him flying back. The Tamer boys had just arrived in time to witness the punishment being inflicted upon Impmon.

"Hey! What's going on?" asked Takato.

"Looks like we're in the line of fire," said Henry.

"In the line of fire? More like the bursts of flames to me," exclaimed Terriermon.

"Impmon has been fighting this Deva himself and he doesn't want our help. He's going to get himself killed," said Rika.

"Impmon! We got to help him," Guilmon said.

"No. We must respect wishes," replied Renamon.

"I wouldn't want to wish this on anyone. Not even, Impmon. C'mon, Impmon! You can do it," exclaimed Takato.

"Give him with everything you got," Henry shouted.

"Hey! I don't even need your support! Now beat it-"

But Indramon was easily able to cut him off and sends Impmon flying back towards a nearby brick wall. Indramon goes over and picks up Impmon. He simply slaps him away and sends him flying down onto the ground. Impmon lands face first and there is a small crater at where he lands. Indramon walks over towards him and then kicks him away into another brick wall. Impmon looked just about out and was getting ready to be vanquished. The Tamer boys tried to go to help him, but Renamon holds out an arm as if she were blocking them away.

"Now time to finish this! This world won't miss another weakling!" Indramon said, as he was ready to stomp him out of existence.

"You guys! We got to do something before its too late," exclaimed Takato, "Now! We have to save him, Renamon."

"Not this time. Just wait a few moments…"

"Hang on!" a voice called out.

The Tamers turned to see Joe catching up to them. Rika easily remembered him earlier in the day.

"Hey, whoa re you?" Takato asked.

"So, you know Kari, too? I'm also a good friend of hers," Joe replied. "I've brought some company. Zudomon!"

With that said, a towering walrus-like titan with a muscular body and a tortoise shell on it's back appeared. Gomamon had enough to eat and was able to use his energy to evolve straight to ultimate.

"Whoa! I have that monster on one of my cards!" Henry said.

[Zudomon. Gomamon's Ultimate-Level. Vaccine Type. Special Technique: Zulcan's Hammer]

"Zudomon? Wow! That's his digimon? What do you think? I'm placing my bets on this guy," said Takato.

"You guys get your digimon to digivolve while Zudomon distracts him! Go!" Joe ordered.

"Another slave to be punished?" Indramon pondered. "Very well. Show me your power, traitor!"

"With pleasure! Zulcan's Hammer!"

Indramon was more than ready to catch the blast with his shell, but he watched as Zudomon diverted the blast around the Deva.

"Talk about a rebound!" Joe exclaimed.

Indramon was caught by the blast. Zudomon sprints forward and clobbers the Deva. Indramon starts reeling, which allowed Zudomon to clothesline him. Impmon looks on with astonishment.

"And that could have been me! I could have digivolved and laid the smack down on that pony's ass!" the tiny imp thought.

**************************************************************************************

The Digi-Destined has just finished eating pizza and were ready to kick back to continue their conversation. But Gabumon sat up as he felt a high energy level from far away and could sense Indramon's presence.

"Matt. Looks like there's some kind of digimon activity over in the city. We better check it out," said Gabumon.

"Are you sure? There's a digimon nearby?" asked Matt.

"Yes and we must check it out," said Gabumon. "Zudomon is there, as well."

"Joe is there?! We should go with you. It's the Tamers and they may need our help," Kari said.

"No. Gabumon and I will go alone. There's a chance that Joe is buying some time for those Tamers to get their digimon ready to digivolve. Tai has already told me about these Tamers. But I don't need your help. Gabumon and I will check it out. You guys stay out. Besides, Gabumon ate the most, so he has the most energy. We'll be back ok?"

"You becareful, Matt," Mimi said as she kissed Matt.

"Don't worry. You just hold Dimitri tight until I get back."

"I will."

"Tell us what you see when you get back," TK said.

Matt nodded and then headed out the door with Gabumon following at his side. Matt holds out his digivice and then it powers up allowing Gabumon to warp digivolve into his mega-leveled form.

"Looks like our training just might pay off."

[Digimon Adventure evolution theme "Braveheart" plays]

"Gabumon!! Warp Shinka!!"

Gabumon quickly goes through his full evolutions, from Garurumon to Were Garurumon and finally into the metallic wolf of warfare, Metal Garurumon.

"Metal Garurumon!!"

Matt quickly hops onto Metal Garurumon and they fly off towards the location of the battle. The other Destined looked on while Mimi was holding onto Dimitri tightly.

"Well, he apparently hasn't changed that much," said Kari, "But he's always have been independent."

"That's my brother for ya," replied TK.

"Matt! I also feel other energy levels over in the central district of West Shinjuku. We're heading over there now."

"Well, lets speed it up!"

With that said, Metal Garurumon's aura flares up and he jets off within the speed of light over towards the exact location of the Tamers.

*************************************************************************************

Zudomon goes for a shot with his hammer, but Indramon ducks under and plows him through a brick wall.

"No! Zudomon!" Joe exclaimed.

"Now with that nuisance taken care of. Where were we? Ah, yes. Time to extinguish this weakling."

Indramon was about to stomp Impmon right out of existence but Renamon quickly goes over and snatches up Impmon away just in time. The Tamers looked on with relief. Renamon sets Impmon, but Indramon takes advantage and delivers a kick to the back of Renamon.

"You dare to save this weakling? Now you will pay for your insolence!"

"Go for it, guys!" Joe called out.

"Alright guys! Its time to take this creep down," Takato said, "Its digivolve time!"

The three Tamers each pulled out their cards and then slashed them through their D-Arks.

[Card Slash theme "Slash!" plays]

"Card Slash! Super Evolution Plug-In S!"

[Digimon Tamers first evolution theme "Evo" plays]

Evolution!!

"Guilmon shinka!! Growlmon!!"

"Renamon shinka!! Kyuubimon!!"

"Terriermon shinka!! Gargomon!!"

"Wow! So they use the cards to help their digimon digivolve? Unreal!" Joe said.

Impmon was struggling to get up to his feet but to no avail. His body was battered and beaten to a bloody pulp.

"I can't even feel my own body. But I'm not going to let some pony beat me around!"

"Now, let me show you what the true power of a Deva really is," Indramon said as he summoned his shell and held it right in front of him.

The three champions all stood together as they faced off against the ever-powerful Indramon. They all began to power-up as auras around their bodies flared up. They each unleashed their attacks upon Indramon.

"Pyro Blaster!!"

"Gargo Laser!!"

"Fox Tail Inferno!!"

As soon as these three attacks were being fired over towards Indramon, the shell that he was holding was able to absorb and gather the energy within. This caught the digimon by surprise, as did the Tamers.

"He absorbed the attacks!" exclaimed Takato.

"He could have done that with my Zulcan's Hammer blast!" Zudomon stated.

"Looks like we're in trouble," said Henry.

"Now! You really think those pitiful attacks were enough to do me in? Pathetic. Now, let me demonstrate my true power…"

As soon as he said that, he grabs his horn and then places it in his mouth while holding his breath. He blows and then unleashes a ray of powerful energy towards the Tamers' digimon.

"Horn of Desolation!!"

The energy was enough to send all three of the champions flying back as the Tamers looked on with shock and horror. Impmon quickly got to his feet and then goes running over towards Indramon.

"You want me dead?! Well, come and absorb me! I'm ready for you!!"

"Ha. So be it. Prepare to meet your doom!"

Impmon goes charging right over towards Indramon, but he was quickly caught off guard as the left foot of Indramon kicks Impmon away.

"This is not good. I guess slacking off from training didn't do us any favors," Joe replied.

"So? Who's next to challenge my-"

"Giga Missiles!!"

Indramon quickly turns around and then gets nailed right in the face by several missiles. Indramon goes stumbling back as he fell down to the ground. The Tamers looked up to see none other than Metal Garurumon hovering in the air with a blonde-haired young man with a smirk on his face.

"What?! It's Matt!" Zudomon exclaimed. "Joe! Look! It's Matt!"

"Matt? What the hey-"

"So you must be the Tamers? Impressive. Your champion digimon are pretty powerful. But leave this to us. We'll take it from here."

"Who is that guy?" Henry asked.

"Not your welcoming committee, that's for sure," replied Gargomon.

"That's another one of Kari's friends, Matt. I've only heard about him from Kari. She says that he's one of the Digi-Destined to fuse with their digimon. So, we might get the chance to see a fusion warrior for the first time," Takato said.

"We'll it's good to see him again. I thought he was touring," Joe pondered.

"Well, lets just see how good he really is," remarked Rika, "He doesn't seem that powerful. But his digimon is a mega-level, so I wouldn't start doubting him now."

"So, your one of those Devas? Well, so far, we're not impressed!" Matt replied.

"Insolent human! You dare defy the power of the Devas? I am one of the most powerful of the Devas, sent by the Dark One. I am here to collect as much energy from this pathetic world and wreck havoc upon you human trash."

"Is that so? You're right about one thing. You are powerful. But… Have you realized that the power of the fused kind has already surpassed you? Thats right, the power of humans and digimon working together to become the legendary fusion warriors has come into being. But since you have no idea of what I'm talking about, we will demonstrate."

"Yes, do so. Lighten me, before I kill you."

"So be it. You just signed your own death warrant."

[SSJ Vegeta's English theme plays]

"Now we're getting somewhere," said Zudomon.

With that said, Matt flies down as if he were about to commit suicide but Metal Garurumon starts to power up as a aura flares up around him and his body started to glow. Matt's body started to glow a metallic blue color as well. Indramon looks on with a smirk on his face but then it becomes an open-mouth gasp. The two bodies turned into beams of metallic blue light and then fused together.

"Metal Garurumon! Fusion shinka!!"

Matt let out a loud cry as he and Metal Garurumon fused into one being. Metal Garurumon stood upright and pieces of his armor started to fade away. His wolf-like appearance had now given to a more human-like appearance. Spiky, blonde hair started to appear on his head and his eyes were glowing a red color. A smile formed across his face. The ground all around him started to shatter and cave into the earth. Now there was a blue, metallic aura formed around his body.

The Tamers and their digimon could only watch on in amazement. Indramon was just as shocked. Metalla X opens his eyes and they were purely white with a metallic blue flare coming out of them. A smirk forms across his face.

"Lets dance, deva."

Metalla X hovers from above while looking down over at Indramon, who had a shocked expression on his face. This was the first time that he ever took a glance at a fully powered fusion warrior. The Tamers were just as shocked at what they were seeing.

"No way! Its another fusion… fusion," stuttered Henry.

"Yeah. No kidding," replied Rika.

"His ki level just sky rocketed and Indramon is looking scared," said Gargomon, "And I thought I see the day a Deva gets scared."

"Heck, I'm almost scared to death looking at him, but he looks so cool," said Growlmon.

"It's all over for this Deva," Joe said. "He can kiss it goodbye."

Henry looks into his D-Ark and goes to get information on Metalla X, but to no avail. No data on him.

"I'm not getting a ready of any kind on this guy. But I don't think this guy needs introductions."

"So, are you ready to dance, Deva?"

"How can you be so confident? You should be kneeling before me… Your power is unbelievable. How are humans and digimon able to fuse into one being?"

"Well. I did a lot of pushups and sits. And I drank plenty of juice."

"Quit toying with me! Enlighten me!"

"Well, if you weren't so busy kissing your boss' ass, maybe you would realize that we're the most powerful being that has ever lived."

"You? You are the most powerful being? What a farce! The Dark One would make you kneel before him," said Indramon.

"Is that so?"

"Yes! You are nothing more than an insolent human! Digimon and humans merging is wrong and I will put an end to this so-called 'fusion warrior' myself."

"You're bluffing my friend. Why don't we get started then?"

"Gladly!"

"Oh, and before you shoot me with that Horn whatever crap you call it, I will warn you now. Your ki level is nowhere near my status of power. I clearly have beaten you."

"Silence and let us begin!"

"Oh no, you don't!" a voice called out.

Indramon turned around to see none other than Impmon running over towards him with his fists clenched up.

"You've got to be kidding me!" Joe stated. "This little guy has heart!"

"He should have stayed down," Zudomon said.

"You still haven't dealt with me yet! You better stay out of this shiny. This purple pony is mine!"

Indramon sneers and then quickly smacks Impmon away and sending him flying over several rooftop houses and onto the other side. A loud crash was heard which caused the Tamers to worry for the little rookie.

"Oh no! Impmon!" exclaimed Takato.

"It looks like Indramon wants Metalla X instead," Henry said, "But we should really go and find Impmon."

"I've never seen a guy as cocky as he is," Rika pointed out, "But then again, I'm no different."

Indramon goes charging over towards Metalla X and goes attacking him with a series of eye beams but Metalla X easily dodges each beam coming his way. The fusion warrior's overconfidence infuriates Indramon. The fusion warrior appears behind the Deva.

"I'm impressed, Metalla X. You managed to get past by deadly beams."

"I don't think you even know what you're up against. It's simple as I say it is. Your powerful, but compared to super powers like Burizalor and Virus, you're a wimp. But unlike him, maybe, you'll prove to be more worthy of a challenge."

"I do not know this Burizalor or Virus you speak of, but if you compare our ki levels being legions apart, then that would mean that you far surpassed us?"

"In more ways than one."

"Is that way he was so overconfident? I now realize that I won't be able to beat him now. But I must return back and return back with this information."

Just as he was about to make his next move, Metalla X reappears in front of him and delivers a tornado kick to the face of Indramon. Indramon goes flying back, as Metalla X goes flying over at him. Indramon manages to stop himself and takes a blow out of his horn.

"Horn of Deso-"

But just as he was about to fire, Metalla X quickly phases out. This catches Indramon off guard as Metalla X appears from above and shoots down a rain of energy blasts that managed to immobilize the giant Deva. Metalla X looks down with a smirk on his face. Indramon was slowly getting to his feet and bruises were covered all over his body.

"Woo! He just got knocked the hell out!" Joe cried out.

"Talk about a lovely sight," remarked Zudomon.

"Well, looks like your horn wasn't able to play the proper tune. You're just going to have to find a better instrument. Now, are you ready for the biggest ass kicking that you're about to receive, Deva."

"I'm not going to be able to beat him at this present form. I will have to return back to refuel my energy and return in my larger form. Laugh it up, Metalla X, but I shall be back."

Indramon looks up and then he flies up, which quickly infuriated Metalla X. Indramon quickly dissipates and turns into a pack of data, but he wasn't deleted.

"He disappeared!" exclaimed Henry.

"Did he just commit suicide?" asked Takato.

"No. He's returning back to the Digital World," said Kyuubimon, "He's going to reenergize and I have a feeling that he won't return the same."

"So, we better be on the outlook at all times. No telling when he returns," said Rika.

"That fight was completely one-sided. Matt could have finished him," Joe said.

"Noe, Joe. He simply wasn't competition for us. We've dealt with tougher foes than that weakling. C'mon, wake up. Now for you Tamers; you three better be on the look out," Metalla X cried out, "There's no telling when he shows up. But here's the deal. I saved you so that I may test out my powers against a Deva and thus far, I was able to handle him with ease. But next time, I want to see you taking him on alone."

"What?! Are you crazy? We're going to get creamed," exclaimed Gargomon.

"Maybe so. But I think you three have a power within you, and you must release it. The Devas are not going to become simple for you guys anymore. One of you three has got to unleash that hidden power. So this is my warning, I do not want you three to screw this up. It's your chance, because I won't be saving your asses next time. Got that?"

They all nodded in agreement, except for Rika, who just stood there with her arms crossed.

"Hey, so you must be Rika. I heard you're the toughest one on the team. I must admit. I was just like you when I was your age. I kind of like that. I'm pretty sure you'll be the one that unleashes their hidden power."

Rika responded by rolling her eyes and looking over towards the Tamer boys. The digimon, except Kyuubimon, just stood there with confused looks on their faces.

"Well I'm off," Metalla X said as he quickly flies off into the distance.

The Tamers looked on as Metalla X was gone like a flash of light. They looked at each other in shock and bewilderment.

"I can't believe that he's just going to leave us hanging out to dry like that. How we can do this ourselves?" asked Gargomon.

"Yeah, he could have just left us some instructions," moaned Growlmon.

"But he's right about one thing," Takato said, "We really have to fight this one alone. We won't know how truly powerful he's going to be, but we're going to have to handle this ourselves."

The other two Tamers nodded in agreement. The digimon also did the same and agreed with Takato.

"Yeah. This time around, it's our turn to prove to the Digi-Destined that we're just as strong, maybe even stronger. Our digimon have gotten stronger to the point that they don't really need to rely on the cards to get the job done. What do you say? Is it agreed?"

They all nodded and a smile forms across the face of the goggle boy.

"You guys did well," Joe said. "Keep it up and you'll be defending the digital world soon. It was nice knowing ya'll. But we better get going. Zudomon. We're heading out."

"It was nice knowing you too, Joe. Tell Kari I said hi," Takato replied.

Joe nodded and hopped onto Zudomon's back. The digimon starts sprinting off towards a safe location. From there, he would de-digivolve back into Gomamon and walk with Joe to the parking lot. They had a long drive out of town.

Growlmon walks right up towards Takato.

"I'm with you, Takato. I always stand by your decision," said Growlmon.

"You got that right, Takatomon," remarked Gargomon, "Shall we, Henry?"

"You bet."

"Rika?"

"Ok, I'm in."

"Tomorrow will be another day. I promise you," Takato said while gazing over towards the sunset. "But I just hope our luck doesn't run out already."

***************************************************************************************

Elsewhere at Shinjuku Park, Davis was playing cards with Veemon while Sonja was training herself in shadow boxing.

"Ace of Spades! I win again, Davis!"

"Damn! You always beat me at my favorite card game!"

"How is that possible?!"

"Not too sure. I guess it's just my luck."

"Luck, my ass."

Sonja stops her long training and walks over towards the two card players. Her eyes glared over towards Davis.

"Um, hi babe. You want to some cards?"

"Ugh, the last time we played, I creamed you."

"I don't know what's more embarrassing. Getting beat by my digimon or my wife…"

"I'm totally serious about this, Davis. Those Devas are popping out everywhere. We have to keep an eye out for them. Starting tomorrow, we're working as a unit. Got it? If or no buts about it."

"Sure, but can't we like get some rest first?"

"Yeah. Yeah. You little baby."

"If I am one, then I'm a cute little baby."

"Oh, Davis. Why do you get yourself caught up in these sort of things?" Veemon thought.

**************************************************************************************

Next Morning

Takato was sitting in the underground tunnel while watching over the three champions. They hoped that they de-evolve back into their rookie forms. Unlike the Digi-Destined digimon, these three can de-evolve at various times, whether it is a short or long amount of time.

Elsewhere, Rika and Henry were looking all over within the city limit at the area where Impmon could have landed. As they walked along, they found a small crater-like hole.

"Whoa. I think we found ourselves a little clue," said Henry, "Look at that hole."

"Yeah. Wow, he could have been killed if he fell even harder than that. He must be all alone without a partner to care for her," said Rika.

"Rika, you do have a heart."

Rika gasps and simply turns away from him while trying to hide her friendly side.

***************************************************************************************

Elsewhere, Matt was standing outside with a determined look on his face as he gazing up into the skies. TK and Kari came walking out.

"Hey, Matt. So, did you really think it was the wise choice to handle this Deva situation on their own?" asked TK.

"Yeah. There's simply no reason why they wouldn't be. It's time for them to prove their worth. If they're as good as you make them out to be, I want them to handle a situation on their own, much like we did against our past enemies."

"I agree, TK. They may just be kids, but they're Tamers. Nobody ever thought we could have saved the two worlds from various evil forces but we did just that, even when we were kids. We always risen to the occasion," said Kari.

"Ok, you guys maybe right. I just kind of over exaggerated there. So, you think that Deva is going to come back?"

"I have a feeling that it may come sooner than you think," Matt replied, "But for our sake, lets hope that they can get the job done right."

**************************************************************************************

Back over at the park, Takato had finished up looking after the digimon and went over to hang out with Kazu and Kenta. They were walking along a trial as they were conversing. But little did they realize that the mysterious boy was sneaking up behind them.

"So, why did you guys need to see me? Spill the beans," Takato said. "Is it an update on Dungeon Dice Monsters?"

"Nope."

Kazu quickly pulls out a blue card with a dinosaur label on it. It was colored blue and was custom made.

"Ta-da! So, what do you think?" asked Kazu, "I kind of figured you guys could use it to Matrix evolve."

"What? You think this could work? I don't think it would work on my digivice."

"But I did everything you told me. I even drew in the outlines."

Suddenly, the mysterious boy comes popping out and went to grab the blue card, but Takato quickly backed while and held the card away. The boy growled and then ran off with super fast speed.

"Man! That is one weird kid! And here I thought Kenta was the weird one," Kazu said.

Takato simply looks at the card and then thought to himself.

***************************************************************************************

Henry and Rika continued their search throughout the city but they found no traces of Impmon. They would soon eventually give up after hours of walking around the same city limits.

"I actually wonder if Impmon even survived that impact fall myself," said Henry.

"I agree. He shouldn't even be out here in his current condition. But this is hopeless. Lets just get back to Takato and full him in on the news."

**************************************************************************************

Mr. Wong was sitting in a desk and was sitting at the place where he and his old college buddies were working on the first actual 'A.I.' programs. But just then, he heard an alarm go off and several workers running towards one location. He walked out to investigate and wondered why they would be running and panicking at the same time.

"I wonder what all of the commotion is all about."

As soon as he followed them in, he walked in to see what seemed to be an underground secret headquarters. It was in fact, the Hypnos system.

"What… What is this place?"

Just then, a man with a suit goes walking up to his side and began to explain to Mr. Wong.

"You have nothing to fear," said Yamaki, "This has been designed to survey the locations of digital fields and surveying communication networks from all over the globe. The network we are using is called the Yuggoth, where we trace the locations of digital beings we call 'wild ones' and we do anything we can to wipe them out of existence and insure the safety of this plane of existence. The reason for these beings entering our world is through the digital field itself. We can define these digital fields as Earth's Electromagnetic Field Interacting with Digital Information that's forming False Proteins.' In other words, digital beings you call digimon are appearing in our world."

***************************************************************************************

Just then, outside within the city of West Shinjuku, the horse Deva Indramon appeared and was now bigger than ever. He was as tall as a forty five-story building.

The Tamers were now at the scene of the crime where Indramon was visible and causing a huge waves of panic among the people.

"Digivolution time," Takato exclaimed.

[Card Slash theme "Slash!" plays]

They all pulled out their cards and then slashed them through their D-Arks.

"Card Slash!! Super Evolution Plug-In S!!"

[Digimon Tamers first evolution theme "Evo" plays]

Evolution!!

"Renamon shinka!! Kyuubimon!!"

"Terriermon shinka!! Gargomon!!"

"Guilmon shinka!! Growlmon!!"

The three champions all powered up with aura flares surrounding them. They ran over towards the Deva. Kazu and Kenta looked on as they cheered for the Tamers. Jeri stood there while holding Calumon in her arms, which began to look worried. The mysterious boy was looking on as he sat on the side of the bridge while looking up at the helicopters soaring the skylines. Impmon watched on while hiding inside a cart and looked on over at the helicopters.

Gargomon was the first to attack as he shoots out a barrage of Gargo Lasers over at the giant Indramon. Kyuubimon then follows it up with a Dragon Wheel plus a Pyro Blaster from Growlmon. The digimon looked on with shock as neither of their attacks unable to penetrate through Indramon. He was not only bigger but was stronger than before.

"Nice little trick, weaklings. But now playtime is over!"

"I don't think. We're not done yet," said Henry.

[Card Slash theme "Slash!" plays]

The blue-haired boy pulls out a card and then slashes it right through his D-Ark, giving Gargomon a much needed energy boost.

"Card Slash!! Power activate!!"

Galgomon powered up and goes flying up at Indramon and shot out another barrage of Gargo Lasers, but it wasn't effective against the tough armor of Indramon. Indramon simply slaps him away and sends the gun bunny towards the bridge as a loud crash was heard. As soon as he landed down onto the ground, Gargomon tried shooting at him but he had ran out of bullets. Henry would only look on with shock and looked through his cards.

[Card Slash theme "Slash!" plays]

Henry pulls out another card and then slashes it through his D-Ark.

"Card Slash!! Recharge activate!!"

Gargomon powers up and let's loose another powerful barrage of shots over at Indramon. This allowed Takato and Rika enough time to make their next move.

[Card Slash theme "Slash!" plays]

Takato pulls out a card and then slashes it through his D-Ark.

"Card Slash!! Strength Activate!!"

Rika pulls out a card and then slashes it through her D-Ark.

"Card Slash!! Hyper Speed Activate!!"

Growlmon and Kyuubimon both powered up as the ground around them shook and rocks began to float. They headed out to go lend Gargomon a helping hand against the powerful Deva.

Meawhile, Sonja and Paildramon look on from a far distance. This is what Sonja was referring about. Her idea was to get involved in a Deva battle.

"Ready, guys? Because there's no turning back," Sonja said.

"I'm with you," Paildramon said. "Time to open a can of whoop ass!"

**************************************************************************************

Back over at Hypnos, Yamaki was leading Mr. Wong towards a room where a group of people was sitting at their computers. Mr. Wong looks over to them and could easily recognize them. They were indeed his old college buddies; the ones who helped him work on the 'A.I.' project.

"Oh my… I can't believe it's you guys! Dolphin! Babel! Daisy! Curly!"

They all stood and they greeted their long-time colleague and friend. It has been a very long time since they seen each other since the shutdown of their 'A.I.' program.

"Its so good to see you all back."

"You all are here for a reason," Yamaki said, "And that is to help us wipe out the digimon from this plane of existence."

"But, where's Shibumi? Why isn't he here?"

"We were unable to locate Shibumi and its unknown where he is at the moment," Yamaki explained, "But I am here to let you know that you six weren't the ones who created digimon completely. It seems that these beings have an omnipotent master. They call this master the Sovereign or how they like to refer to him as the Dark One. You might have created the design and the framework data of the Digimon, but this higher being was the one who brought them to life. We knew that Shibumi wouldn't be here. At first, I just didn't trust Shibumi but after a while, what he predicted had come true. It first happened many years ago in Odaiba, then results in the Virus incident seven years ago. But now, Hypnos had to earn the digimon's trust in order to lower their defenses. Then from there, we can destroy them."

Just then, Mr. Wong was looking at a computer monitor and saw none other than Kazu and Kenta. A look of worry started to form across his face.

"Oh no! That's Kazu and Kenta, in the line of fire!"

***************************************************************************************

Back over at the battlegrounds, Jeri and Calumon watched as they were crying over the fact that the Tamers were being pummeled and losing the battle against the powerful Indramon.

The three champions all headed out as they charged the Deva once again, showing no signs of giving up.

"We're not going to let you destroy our world!" exclaimed Gargomon.

"You have no right to kill us and load our data just to give more energy for your evil leader!" Kyuubimon shouted.

"Yeah! We refuse to give up and take defeat at the hands of this Dark One! Takato and I won't let you take this world!" Growlmon cried out.

"Insolent fools! You are now going to feel the full wrath of my deva power!" exclaimed Indramon.

With that said, Indramon began to blow parts of the city around him, despite the military helicopters and the Tamers' digimon trying to stop him. It was obvious that military power was useless against the digimon. As Indramon was about to blast a nearby helicopter, Growlmon came out of nowhere and blasted Indramon away with a huge Pyro Blaster that was able to slam against the deva's face. Indramon turned around and nails Growlmon with a swift smack with his elbow.

Just then, Takato was weakening as he fell to his knees and held his arm while grimacing in pain. Kazu and Jeri were able to hold him up just before he was about to collapse. A look of worry came across the faces of both Henry and Rika.

Gargomon and Kyuubimon went over to try to assault the deva, but Indramon also nailed them with swift shots as well. They suffered the same fate as Growlmon did.

Henry and Rika also felt pain flowing through their bodies just as their digimon were nailed with the tremendous blows. It was obvious that the deva's blows were very strong and caused the Tamers to feel their pain. This had happened before when Tai and War Greymon were battling Burizalor. The evil tyrant was beating around War Greymon, and this caused Tai to feel his partner's pain.

"Had enough, fools?!"

Suddenly, two large blasts came shooting out and nailed Indramon in the face. The Deva goes crashing back. He turned and noticed two figures.

"What? More flies stand in my way?!"

"Look! It's Davis and someone else!" Takato exclaimed. "Looks like they'll be buying us some more time!"

"Yes, this is just what we needed," Henry replied.

"Why do you interfere?!" Indramon asked.

"Because you're a Deva and annoy the hell out of us! Desperado Blaster!!"

The shots came in close-range contact with Indramon, which knocked him back. Sonja jumps up and clasps her hands together. This managed to create an energy disk. She throws it and watches it slice through Indramon's side armor.

"Curse you, wench!"

"Nice shot, babe!"

"I was just warming up. You really don't want to catch me in a bad mood," the artificial girl said promptly.

Elsewhere, the mysterious boy was watching on every minute of the battle and there seemed to be a satisfied look on his face during the course of the battle itself. He makes approving sounds when Indramon was inflicting damage to the digimon and disapproving towards the kids attempting to help their digimon. It was obvious that this boy was going for Indramon, but for some unknown reason. However, he was unhappy with Paildramon and Sonja interfering in the battle.

Kazu and Kenta decided to help out the Tamers by handing them some modify cards to help out their digimon.

"Here, you could use this. You better hurry or you're going to lose your digimon, dude. Those two are obviously buying you guys some more time!"

"Thanks, Kazu!" Henry said as he took the cards.

[Card Slash theme "Slash!" plays]

Each of the Tamers took a card and slashed them through their D-Arks.

"Card Slash! Power Activate!" Henry shouted.

"Card Slash! Hyper Speed Activate!" exclaimed Rika.

"Card Slash! Energy Activate!" Takato cried out.

The digimon felt their power increase as they each made their move onto the giant Indramon. Sonja and Paildramon flew to the side to allow the Tamer's digimon to make their next assault. Growlmon shoots several large Pyro Blasters. Kyuubimon sends out a wave of Fox Tail Infernos. Gargomon shoots out a barrage of Gargo Lasers. But none of these attacks had any effects on the deva. The reason for this failure as the fact that the Tamers were using too many modify cards and it was wasting more energy for the digimon instead of giving them energy.

Kazu was looking through his cards, but he only had one left. He pulls out it and it was the blue card that he had made himself for Takato.

"Hey, chumley! I should have told you sooner! Use my card! The one I created for you."

"But Kazu, its just a custom-made. You created it using crayon and card board."

"It doesn't matter now. Just use it," Henry exclaimed, "Our digimon are going to die pretty soon."

"C'mon, goggle head. What are you waiting for a written invitation? Use it," snapped Rika.

Takato looked over at Kazu, then the card and then over to Calumon, who was being held by Jeri. The little digimon nodded his head and a smile forms across the face of Takato. He takes the card and faces the battlefield.

"Alright. I don't know if it will work, but I will try! Here goes nothing!"

Standing on top of a roof, Matt is looking on from a far off distance with Metal Garurumon at his side. A smirk was forming across his face.

"Now you'll get the chance to see Guilmon matrix evolve, babe," Paildramon said.

"Let's see what this matrix fuss is all about," replied Sonja.

[Card Slash theme "Slash" plays]

Takato takes the blue card and then slashes it through his D-Ark.

"Card Slash! Matrix Evolution Activate!"

A frown was forming across the mysterious boy's face as Growlmon was beginning to evolve.

[Digimon Tamers first evolution theme "Evo" plays]

"Growlmon matrix shinka!!"

A red-shaped diamond was in the background as Growlmon was beginning to become bigger in size and armor starts to form all across his body. Blades formed at his sides and his body was half cybernetic. He then powered down and was in his new form. He shouts out his newly evolved name.

"War Growlmon!!"

["The Biggest Dreamer" plays]

Indramon looks on towards the battlegrounds and sees War Growlmon facing him. A look of shock forms across the face of Indramon. War Growlmon powers up his thrusters and unscathed his blades. Takato looks on as he screamed out to give War Growlmon a much needed "power boost". War Growlmon took this to his advantage as he goes charging at Indramon with full speed. The cyborg rams his blades right into Indramon and begins pushing him away.

"Give it up, deva!!"

"Never!! I shall never die!!"

"Oh you will," Takato said, "ATOMIC-"

"BLASTER!!!"

The breastplates on War Growlmon began to open up as he started to power up with tremendous force. A red energy beam comes shooting right out of War Growlmon and right towards Indramon, as the force of the energy was able to push Indramon away. The horse deva lets out a bloody scream and watches as his body explodes into loads of red lifeless data.

"All right! Way to go, Takato! Now that's what I call a smack down!" Paildramon exclaimed.

"Awesome, but I got a favor for you, guys," Sonja said.

"What's that?"

"Come up with some original material, please!"

War Growlmon stood triumphant among the city with the military helicopters flying around him. Takato let out a sigh of relief and fell onto his knees.

"Yeah! You did it, dude!" Kazu exclaimed.

"You were great, Takato!" said Jeri.

"One deva down, another problem solved," Henry stated.

"Way to go, goggle head. You just never seem to amaze me," Rika said to herself.

The mysterious boy was taken appalled by this and quickly disappears out of sight.

"Ha! So, does that make me a tamer, now," Kazu asked, "I saved your lives!"

"Hey, just can it, Kazu!" Rika snapped.

The Tamers managed to defeat one powerful deva without the help of the Digi-Destined, but what other new challenges lies ahead for our heroes? And will the other Digi-Destined make any appearances?
