[Digimon Tamers Opening "The Biggest Dreamer" plays]
A World Apart! Advance Toward the Wind!
The city of West Shinjuku was now put under siege as a result of the digimon invasion that has been occurring. It hasn't been this bad ever since Virus was threatening to destroy the two worlds seven years ago.
But this time around, there are now Tamers to aid the Digi-Destined in the battle against the Devas. On one side, the Tamers went to confront the boar beast known as Vikaralymon. The Digi-Destined were confronted by Shintomon and Buddamon elsewhere, as they sought to see the true depth of Kari's full power. And they got it as she and Gatomon fused to become Celesta X.
Most importantly, the Tamers were now going prepared in the battle against Vikaralymon. The pig looked over to see War Growlmon, Rapidmon and Taomon.
"Phew! What's that smell?" Rapidmon asked, "I'm about to gag over here."
"Well, what do you expect? It's a pig," replied War Growlmon.
"This is something not worthwhile to look at. I hope we end this battle soon," said Taomon.
"War Growlmon!"
"Rapidmon!"
"Taomon!"
The three ultimates responded as they were powering up with flashing auras surrounding their bodies, demonstrating their true hidden powers. Viakaralymon would only look on while his data was somehow being released into the sky, and at the same time, influencing the Juggernaut.
*************************************************************************************
Celesta X stood her ground, as her glowing aura was getting brighter. Shintomon and Buddamon were both shocked at what they were looking at. A very rare fighter in their view and something never seen, but they knew that this technique was quite powerful. They were showing great interest in her.
"So, is this what you wanted?" asked Celesta X, "I'm at my full power. And you did say something about how long this could last? What did you mean by that?"
"That!" exclaimed Shintomon.
He points up as the whole group looked up to see the mysterious boy coming right down at Celesta X with an energy drainer in one hand.
"Alright. Time to show you what I'm made of," Celesta X said while powering up an attack.
But just as she was about to fire her attack, Shintomon cried out and held his hands out. He manages to send a magical spell that froze Celesta X in her place; Tai jumps off and goes to confront him.
"What the hell was that for?! You just froze her in place!"
"I want you all to keep back! Now!"
Celesta X couldn't move a muscle and was helpless as the boy jumps onto Celesta X's back. He then stabs the energy drainer into her side, which caused her to scream out in bloody murder. Shintomon held Tai back while the others went into try to stop the energy drainer. But Buddamon was able to stop them with an energy field.
"You all will stay out of this. Trust us, we know what we're doing," said Buddamon. "Just hang in there, Hikari. It will all be over soon."
Celesta X was literally screaming to the top of her lungs while the mysterious boy was draining more of her energy with the device that he was using. A bright aura of light was sucked right into the device and the process was almost complete. Tai growled in anger and could only watch as his own sister was crying out.
"He's killing her!" TK exclaimed.
"No. Just trust me. It will be all over soon," replied Shintomon.
The mysterious boy releases the device from Celesta X's side and then leaps down onto his feet. He looks right down at the device and gathered as much energy as he could get. An evil smirk comes across his face.
"Ha. Now we have enough energy for my master's needs. My work here is done."
With that said, the boy goes hovering up into the air. The Digi-Destined watched as he quickly flies off into the distance. Tai runs over towards his fallen sister and kneels to her side. TK goes over and helps Tai pick up Celesta X. Since nearly all of her energy was drained, she quickly defused back into Kari and Gatomon. Tai looked down and noticed that Kari was pale and drained of her energy.
"Shintomon. We have to get her some medical help! She's lost tons of energy and she could die."
"No."
"Listen to yourself, Shintomon! Your just going to leave Kari like this?" TK asked frantically.
"I say no, because my assistant, Buddaman, shall heal her. Buddamon, if you will."
"Yes."
Buddamon goes walking over towards Kari's fallen body and then places his hand over her head. Suddenly, a bright aura was glowing in his hands and the light was starting to cover Kari's body, as if she were already being healed.
"So, what's the deal? Why did you let that creep drain Kari of her energy?" asked Davis.
"She could have killed in the process," Ken replied.
"No. His intentions were not to kill her but to gather her energy for the Dark One. We must find him as soon as possible."
"But we've got a Deva out there hell bent on destroying the city," said TK, "We just can't leave the Tamers to battle him alone."
"I believe the Tamers have this on in the bag. They won't need your help, Digi-Destined. Buddamon and I have all of their battles against each of the Devas, and they've proven to be much stronger than any of you were during your early days. Even their ultimate level digimon have proven to be just as strong as a first level fusion warrior."
"Wow, they must be some super powerful if they're power levels are that high," said Tai, "But I agree, lets leave this with the Tamers. We've got more issues to deal with."
Buddamon finishes healing Kari and quickly sits up while looking over to the skylines. Kari opened her eyes and sits up while holding her head. Tai and TK go over to lift her up onto her feet.
"What just happened? Huh? I'm back to normal? But how?"
"You got drained of your energy by a Deva," Shintomon said, "Yes, that was no ordinary boy. It was a Deva and I also know a reason why he came here. He seeks to find the power source of digivolution itself."
"The power of digivolution? Was kind of course could he be looking for?" asked Kari.
"Calumon," muttered Leomon, "Its Calumon! He's with the Tamers as we speak! If that Deva were to get to Calumon, then the Dark One will also gain the power of digivolution and who knows what kind of an army he could create with that kind of power."
"There's no time to waste. We must go and find that Deva right away," said Shintomon, "Digi-Destined, its really up to you whether you want to help us or not. But I would appreciate it."
"Don't worry. You got our support, Shintomon," said Tai, "We'll follow you along."
"But, my power is gone completely?" Kari asked, "I mean I got drained of my energy."
"Your power was restored when I healed you. You should have enough to reach your fusion form again."
"I'll save that for later. I think Gatomon could use a little ultimate level power right about now. Ready for a little angel power, Gatomon?"
"You bet. I'm ready to get this cat out of the bag."
"Lets do it!"
Kari's D-3 glowed as shoots out a beam of pink light over to Gatomon. She now had the power to digivolve herself straight into her ultimate-level form.
[Evolution theme "Brave Heart" plays]
"Gatomon chou shinka!! Angewomon!!"
"You better evolve too, Patamon," TK instructed.
"Right!"
TK's D-3 glowed and shoots out a beam of gold light over to Patamon. He now had the power to digivolve himself straight into his champion-level form.
"Patamon shinka!! Angemon!!"
"This is it, Digi-Destined! This is the moment of truth. Follow me," said Shintomon.
He goes flying off into the distance along with Buddamon. The Digi-Destined each nodded their head to one another, and they one by one followed Shintomon along.
"Hey, Sonja, why did you come along? Its really good to see you again," Kari said.
"Well, I just couldn't let my glory hound husband get himself a piece of the action all the time, so I decided to tag along. I really hate being a housewife. It just doesn't suite me right. I'm a fighter, not a maid."
"Well, you could have asked me before but you said that you had tons of shopping to do. But nonetheless your here," replied Davis.
"Hey guys! Let's have less arguing and more concentrating. We're out to look for a Deva here," Xveemon said.
"Right."
The digimon each boosted up their energy as they quickly flew off into the distance to follow both Shintomon and Buddamon along.
Looking up were two ladies. One of them has long, turquoise hair and the other has golden, blonde hair. They watched the entire digimon fleet soaring through the skies.
"What was that, Kiyone?!"
"Looks like they're about to kick some ass. It's about time something was done about this."
"Um, do you have anymore chocolate pretzels?"
"You're such a pig, Mihoshi."
***************************************************************************************
[Rage Against the Machine "Wake Up" plays]
Back over at the battlefield, the Tamers looked as while their digimon were beginning their attacks on the giant boar Deva. Rapidmon was the first to attack.
"Here try these on for size! Rapid Fire!"
Rapidmon fired away a barrage of missiles over at Vikaralymon, but as each missile made direct contact, they made no effect on the boar. Rapidmon was growling under his breath and couldn't believe his eyes. Vikaralymon retaliated as he spat out black ink at Rapidmon, as it traps him. Rapidmon tried to escape but the ink was too strong and held him tightly.
"Ack! I can't move! This stuff stinks!"
"Talisman of Light!!"
With one wipe of her brush, Taomon sends down a bright beam over at the Deva, but it still had no effect on the giant porker. Taomon was shocked beyond belief. War Growlmon steps right in front of Vikaralymon with his arms stretched out. Vikaralymon spits out a cloud of black ink over at him, but War Growlmon uses his arm blades to cut his way through the ink with tremendous ease. War Growlmon goes charging over towards him, the boar opens his mouth and spits out a huge energy ball. War Growlmon stops at his tracks and watched as the ball was coming towards him. He goes and tries to push it back
"War Growlmon! Try to push and lift it back! You have to power out of it! You must!"
"I'm trying my best, Takato! But he's much too strong. I don't think I can hold back much longer."
As soon as he said that, the energy ball was slowly overpowering War Growlmon and pushing him further back. The cyborg tries with all of his might to reflect the energy ball, but he was slowly losing his footing and his momentum.
The boar Deva manages to spit out another cloud of ink that manages to trap both Taomon and Rapidmon. They couldn't break free and were now vulnerable to Vikaralymon's oncoming onslaught.
"Now! I think its time to open the gate! Your world will be sent straight to hell!" Vikaralymon roars.
The Tamers looked up into the skylines and there were tons of images of digimon behind the Juggernaut. Each one was calling out for the gate to be opened. The children were shocked beyond belief at what they were seeing.
"I can't believe what I'm seeing," Henry said.
"The two worlds are about to collide with one another. If that were to happen, then we might as well kiss ourselves goodbye," said Takato.
"This could be it you guys!" Rika replied, "Well, at least, we went down trying."
"No. I won't give up. We won't give up. Besides, we have to prove our worthiness to the Digi-Destined. I have a good feeling that we could be just as good as they are, or even better," Takato said.
"Well, I guess its safe to say that your 'old pal' Yamaki is messing with the sky again, Henry."
"I hate to say it, but you might be right."
**************************************************************************************
Back over at Hypnos, Yamaki and Mr. Wong were still having their argument over the use of the Juggernaut program. But it seems Yamaki was winning the argument thus far and wasn't about to stop his program anytime soon.
"Your responsible for all of this. It was you that created the digimon and now one of your creations is out there destroying the city as we speak," Yamaki said.
Mr. Wong looks over at a computer monitor and noticed Vikaralymon on the screen. His eyes widened in disbelief at how advanced his artificial life form had now become. He thought this was just a bad dream, but it was all reality. There's nothing dreamy about this.
"But… I never designed that… That's just not right…"
***************************************************************************************
Rika was shuffling through her cards and noticed that she had nothing but a bunch of useless cards that would not help Taomon.
"Oh these cards suck! I can't find the proper one for Taomon!" Rika exclaimed, "Its useless! I can't even help Taomon."
"No, Rika. I believe that it's the cards that always help our digimon," Henry replied.
"What do you mean?"
"The power for our digimon isn't gained through our cards, but in the power of our beliefs. I think this because each time that we really needed our digimon, they have always been there to save us from thick and thin, no matter how great the crisis is."
"Henry is right. I felt War Growlmon's pain before and there was a connection between us, as if our souls and bodies were connected into one mind. Its time to show our digimon our love and trust we have for them. Then we could use those attributes to make our digimon stronger."
***************************************************************************************
Back at Hypnos, Mr. Wong noticed his own son on a monitor and had a look of fear on his face. He feared for his own son's survival and couldn't stand being around Yamaki any longer. He couldn't stand being away from his son and taking away Terriermon just to please Yamaki and his goal of eliminating every single digimon in the real world.
"I can't stand this anymore! Henry is out there and he needs me! I can't stand this anymore!"
"Ha. Face it, Janyuu. There's nothing you can do as long as the Juggernaut is still running. Looks like I win this little game. Say goodbye to your digital pets."
Mr. Wong finds his way out through an exit door and several security guards were running up to them.
"Hey you! We can't let you leave the premises!"
"I'm sorry. But forgive me for doing this."
As soon as he said that, Mr. Wong knocked one guard down with a chop to his head and takes the other two down with thrusts into their abdomens. Mr. Wong walks away and heads out towards an elevator that would lead him down to the ground level.
"Hang on, son. I'll be down there shortly. I promise."
**************************************************************************************
Meanwhile, over at the battlefield, Taomon was able to create a shield for herself and Rapidmon. This would be a way to protect themselves from another one of Vikaralymon's attacks.
"I hope this shield will be strong enough to hold off that pig's attacks," Taomon said.
"I just hope your ying doesn't get yanged," Rapidmon replied.
Just away from the battlegrounds, Jeri, Kazu and Kenta were walking through a temple shrine. Calumon was with them, in Jeri's arms. Jeri looks down and notices Calumon muttering himself in fear.
"Calumon?"
"Oh no. I don't want to play that game. I don't want to go back. No. I don't. Please no."
"Calumon? What are you talking about? You're talking weird."
"Don't let them get me, Jeri. I don't want to go back."
The Juggernaut was now beginning to have its effect on every single digimon, including Vikaralymon. Even the Digi-Destined's digimon were being effected.
"Kari! I can't seem to hold my form much longer."
"Davis, what's happening to me?"
"Ken!"
One by one, each of the digimon's bodies were slowly fading but they managed to remain stable at the very moment. Shintomon took note of this and looks up into the skies.
"Its not what I think it is, is it," Shintomon asked, "Its that program again. It erases digimon out of existence. Hurry, we must avoid it at all costs."
"But what is this program?" Tai asked, "And how come our digimon are being erased."
"Its the Juggernaut program. It's a program intended to delete all digital life forms and that even includes digimon. Even us supreme guardians are not immune to it," replied Buddamon.
"It doesn't seem to be effecting me," Sonja said, "That's because I'm not made of data like you guys are."
"We can't let that distract us from searching for that Deva," said War Greymon, "What do you say guys? Enough of this moping around and get our attention back on what we're looking for."
"Agreed. We can't let anything hold us back," Metal Garurumon replied.
They each nodded their head in agreement, which brought a smirk across the face of Shintomon.
"Lets allow the Tamers to take care of the pig Deva, and we can buy them some time as we search for that other Deva. Maybe we still have a chance of catching up to him. Lets go."
With that said, the group flew out as they continued their search for the Deva that drained Celesta X of her energy earlier ago.
Back over at the battlefield, the shield that formed around Taomon was slowly beginning to get deleted by the Juggernaut program. Rapidmon could only look on in horror at what he was seeing.
"Our ying is getting yanged! Crap! I shouldn't have jinxed ourselves!" Rapidmon exclaimed.
"Damn! I can't seem to make it any stronger," Taomon said, "Its getting deleted."
"Taomon! No! It's going to delete you!"
"Rapidmon!!"
"Henry!!"
The young boy turns around to see his own father running up towards him while catching his breath. Henry goes running to his father and then points over to Rapidmon.
"Dad! They're about to get deleted! We have to do something, before its too late."
**************************************************************************************
Back over at Hypnos, Yamaki stood triumphant as he was soon about to claim victory over the digital life forms.
"Yes! Soon, all digital life shall be deleted. Nothing will stop me from achieving my goal."
But as soon as he said that, the whole room was starting to get covered by a bunch of Zeroes and Ones. Something was also happening to the Juggernaut program as well.
"Sir! Something is happening to the Juggernaut program! It seems something is overloading the system," Riley said.
"Ugh! Its that binary machine language again," replied Yamaki.
**************************************************************************************
Elsewhere, the same two women who were strolling through the park during the day the rat deva bio-emerged were seen in different outfits.
"Should we attempt to help them?" the lady with the turquoise hair asked.
"No, Neptune. This is their battle. They will eventually learn how to defeat their enemy."
"They're just children…"
"Very special children. We must not interfere."
With that said, the two Sailors vanished within the darkness of the park forest.
Over at the temple shine, the mysterious boy confronted the three kids. Calumon looked over at him with a frightened look on his face.
"What do you want?! We don't have time for you," Kazu said.
Jeri looked over at the mysterious boy and looked deep into his beady black eyes. She held Calumon tightly like a mother protecting her child. The mysterious smiles and then peers over towards Calumon. He then started to speak. Everybody was able to hear his voice, even the people over at Hypnos. It was as if he were speaking to everyone telepathically.
"As you all know, it was you humans that created us and the world that we lived in. But it's such a shame that not only have you managed to destroy your own world, but also managed to destroy ours. So, we've managed to evolve and adapt to our environments. The only way for us to survive was to destroying anyone or anything that threatens to destroy us. And you're holding a key to that problem. We digimon have something planned in store for you. So as of now, we really don't care what you do to this world for soon it will be ours for the taking."
Jeri stood there and started to back away while holding tightly onto Calumon. The mysterious boy points his finger over at the children and then over to Calumon.
"You have something that I want."
**************************************************************************************
Deep down in the underground sewers, Impmon was still muttering to himself and bashing himself for being such a total failure. But just then, a turned around to see a digital gate opening up and he could hear a voice coming out of it.
"What's the matter? Are you feeling sorry for yourself?"
"No! And who the hell are you? What do you want?!"
"I have a key to your problem with digivolution. I can help you attain this power. But you have first enter this digital gate and I will tell you everything you need to know."
"Huh? Why should I trust you?"
"It's for your own good and I could give you what you long craved for. Isn't that what you always wanted?"
"I guess you do have a point… Maybe I can consider on your deal."
**************************************************************************************
The mysterious boy walks his way over towards Jeri and Calumon as he began humming to himself, but Kazu and Kenta cornered Jeri as if protecting her. But the mysterious boy continued to walk up towards them still humming a tune.
"What do you want from us?" asked Jeri.
The boy stopped and turned his head in a 180-degree rotation as he quickly replied to their question.
"Just give me what I want."
"What is it that you want?" Jeri asked with fear in her eyes.
"No, please! I don't want to go back! Don't let them take me! Please, don't," Calumon said as if he were begging.
Suddenly, a strange aura surrounded the mysterious boy and his body quickly started to transform. He became more monkey-like and stood there with an orb in his hands. The three children looked on with shock at what they were seeing. The mysterious kid turned out to be a Deva.
"I am Makuramon."
"Whoa! That was some tripped out crap!" remarked Kazu.
Makuramon lets out a scream that managed to echo throughout the city, and everybody was caught off guard by it.
Shintomon stopped at his tracks as the others stopped as well. Shintomon turned around towards the location of the temple shrine and felt an enormous ki level coming from Makuramon.
"The Deva that we have been looking for has released his full power. That Deva was the monkey, Makuramon. It seems that he has found Calumon."
"No! We got to go stop them!" exclaimed Tai.
"No, wait. I have a feeling that the Juggernaut won't pose much of a threat any longer."
"What do you mean?"
"Just watch, Kari. You shall see for yourself."
With that being said, Makuramon goes leaping up into the air as he quickly throws the orb into the skylines above and watched as the orb reverse the polarity of the neutron flow. As a result, this caused massive shockwaves to occur within the building of Hypnos. Several explosions were occuring and the entire place was soon falling down. There were explosions heard and the crew workers were each beginning to abandon the building as soon as possible.
"Yamaki! There's a complete failure within the system! We have to evacuate now!" exclaimed a co-worker.
Talley goes falling out of her chair and lands hard on her backside. She manages to get to her feet and goes to pull Riley out.
"I knew something like this was going to happen," exclaimed Talley.
"We have to get out of here now!"
"Stop right there! Are you abandoning your duties?!"
"Sir, I've now realized that my life is much more important than your cause. Get out of here, sir. Its all over."
The building was starting to explode from the outside as well. The workers were quickly getting themselves into nearby elevators in order to evacuate as soon as possible.
Yamaki turns around and notices Riley looking over towards him. The man sighs in disbelief and looks down.
"Riley. Get out of here, before its too late."
She nodded and goes running out of the building, leaving Yamaki by himself. He soon goes walking out and then had a disappointed look on his face. His goal had been shattered and his hopes of deleting every single digital life forms has collapsed before him.
**************************************************************************************
"Its over! The Juggernaut has been put to a halt. We can now make our move. Makuramon probably has sensed us from the far distance and knows that we're after him. But we must go and find him before he gets away," Shintomon said.
"Right!"
The group goes flying off into the distance as they continued their search for the monkey Deva. Shintomon looked down at the landscape and was picking up several energy levels over at the battlegrounds.
The group looked over to see Vikaralymon regaining his power, as well as Taomon and Rapidmon, whose energy was quickly restored to them.
"I'm back, human filth!! You still wanna play?!" Vikaralymon called out.
[Deftones "Shove it" plays]
War Growlmon was still trying to punch the energy ball back, but was still stuck down onto the ground. Jeri and the others arrived to meet with the Tamers.
"Takato! You won't believe at what we're about to tell you," Jeri said, "But that mysterious boy that we were chasing was Makuramon. He was another one of the Devas."
"No! Al right! That's it! War Growlmon! We're taking this porker down, now!"
"Takato? He's about to get deleted if you don't do something," Henry said.
"I know. Its time to toughen up! I can't stand being at the sidelines. I'm going to help War Growlmon, whatever it takes! Nothing is going to hold me back!"
"That boy definitely has the power, Buddamon. And I have a feeling that his power will far surpass those of the other Tamers."
"You really think so, Shintomon?" asked Tai.
"Yes, Kari had taught him to control his emotions when giving his digimon a much needed power boost. It was done when you and War Greymon were working together. And it definitely did favors for you sister, Kari. Now, it will do the same for Takato. Watch and you'll know what I mean."
The group looked down over at Takato, who was screaming out to himself. War Growlmon was still struggling to push the energy ball back, but Takato quickly clenched his fists and continued to scream out. What he was doing was trying to reach down inside of himself and getting in tune with his primal self that would soon empower War Growlmon.
War Growlmon felt Takato's power and quickly powers up with a glowing aura flowing through his body. He screams out and slashes right through the energy ball. War Growlmon gets into a stance while facing off against Vikaralymon. Takato was still screaming as War Growlmon continued to approach Vikaralymon.
"Fusion Ball!!"
With that said, War Growlmon goes flying right through the energy ball and slashes through it with ease. Vikaralymon looked on in shock. War Growlmon goes charging and then grabs a hold of the pig's tusks.
"Alright! We got him now, War Growlmon!" exclaimed Takato.
The other Tamers screamed as well to give Takato more motivation to make War Growlmon as strong as possible, but they screamed in order to help out their own digimon.
"Would you guys stop wit the screaming?! Geez!" remarked Rapidmon.
"It's happening. Takato is the one," Shintomon said, "There's no mistake, he's going to be the next that surpasses the other Tamers. He's demonstrating that power as we speak."
"Whoa, he must be the most powerful Tamer then. That pig is toast!" Davis said,
"Go for it, Takato! You can do it!"Kari said to herself.
While screaming, Takato used his energy, which allowed War Growlmon to push Vikaralymon off of his feet and onto his side. Vikaralymon was unable to get to his feet and struggling to get up, which allowed War Growlmon his chance to attack. His breastplates opened up as a red massive energy beam comes shooting out towards Vikaralymon.
"Atomic Blaster!!"
War Growlmon kept the blast straight on with Vikaralymon and watched as the monster's body was slowly dissipating into small bits of data. A huge explosion occurred as the last bits of Vikaralymon's data slowly faded away. War Growlmon stood there while catching his breath.
"Whew, that was one mean sausage machine."
"Oh my… This has now become a war between the two worlds! I can't believe that this is really happening," Mr. Wong said.
The Tamers each sighed a relief as their digimon went over towards them.
"Way to go, War Growlmon! We nailed him!" Takato exclaimed.
"That's my goggle head," Rika muttered.
"Hey guys!" a voice called out.
They looked up to see none other than Kari along with the other Digi-Destined, those being Matt, Tai, Ken, Davis and TK.
"Whoa! I can't believe what I'm looking at. The same warriors that participated in the War Games seven years ago," Henry said, "There's War Greymon, Metal Garurumon, Angemon, Angewomon, Xveemon, Stingmon, Leomon and I've never seen that young woman with them."
"Oh don't worry. That's just my wife," said Davis, "She decided to tag along. She sided with us during these past seven years."
"More like the other way around," replied Sonja.
"Hey, wasn't my fault that you wanted to be with me. Besides, you always found me pretty damn hot."
"Please… You're not hot… I just married you for the money," Sonja marked.
The Tamers all laughed at their arguing and that brought Shintomon's attention over to Takato.
"You did very well out there, Takato. There's no doubt that you and Guilmon have more hidden powers within you. Soon, you will bring that out."
"Wait a minute, how do you know about me and Guilmon? And just who are you?" Takato asked.
Just then, Jeri and the others go running up towards Takato, but just then a mysterious figure phases out of nowhere and snatches Calumon from Jeri's hands. The young girl turned around to see Makuramon holding Calumon in one and the energy drainer in the other.
"Help! Takato! Guilmon!"
The Tamers turned around to see Makuramon with Calumon and the drainer in both of his hands. The Digi-Destined looked on as their digimon growled as if ready to attack. Shintomon and Buddamon stood their ground while looking over at Makuramon.
"Since you weren't able to give me what I wanted, I had to take it. This creature doesn't belong here. It belongs with us and he's going to be quite useful to us," Makuramon said.
"You give him back, monkey boy!" Rika exclaimed.
"Calumon is our friend and not some piece of property," Takato said.
The goggle boy goes lunging for the monkey, but he managed to phase out of the way and hovers up into the air. Calumon goes struggling under his grasp as he calls out to his friends.
"Calumon!! No!!"
Leomon growls and quickly phases away. He goes flying right after Makuramon and powers up several ki blasts over at him, but Makuramon deflected each with his hands. Just as Makuramon was about to enter through the digital gate, a strange silhouette appears out of nowhere and was shaped like that of a being. Several small darts come shooting out from the silhouette and into Leomon as he goes flying down with the darts covering his body.
"Leomon!! No!" Jeri exclaimed.
Suddenly, a bright glow appears in front of Jeri and a D-Ark comes floating into her hands. The Tamers looked over in shock at what they were seeing.
The Digi-Destined were just as surprised. They couldn't believe that Jeri had just received a D-Ark.
Leomon landed right in front of Jeri and she runs right over to him.
"Don't tell me that this is happening. Jeri is now Leomon's tamer," Davis asked.
"I thought I'd never see the day," replied Tai, "But its happened."
"Hang on, Leomon! I'm going to save your life," Jeri said as she held out her newly acquired D-Ark over the fallen body of Leomon.
Leomon awakens with his newly healed body and looks over at Jeri.
"Thank you… Young one…"
"You're welcome…"
The digital gateway was closing up as Makuramon continued to laugh manically with Calumon in his possession.
***************************************************************************************
Later that day, the fire departments and the police had arrived to investigate the scene, but there wasn't anything they could do but look at the destruction caused upon the city of the once beautiful West Shinjuku.
The Tamers and the Digi-Destined all looked up into the skylines and could see no trace of any digital gates. War Greymon and Metal Garurumon came flying down over to their partners letting them know that there weren't anymore digital gates.
"Well this just plain sucks! We can't even do a damn thing about this," Tai said, "And now for what we know, this 'Dark One' probably has that energy and is using it to create some sort of super powerful being that could wipe out the two worlds!"
"Not only that but he also has Calumon, not to mention the key source to digivolution itself," replied Kari, "And there's nothing we can do now. Its hopeless."
"No it isn't," said Takato, "We have to go anyway. We have to go to the Digital World. Its the only way to save Calumon and stop this 'Dark One'."
"Yes and there is a way," Shintomon stated, "There is one digital gate still open."
"Where? The only one I know of is over at the summer camp we went to many years ago," said Tai.
"No. There is an another and it lead into another digital world, much different from the ones you Digi-Destined have gone to many times. I've been into this new digital world myself and that is where we must be heading."
"But where is this digital gate?" asked Rika.
"Somewhere within this city. We must spread out and find it, if we plan on getting there sooner," Buddamon said.
"And I shall explain everything that you need to know, especially the true purpose of the Dark One's conquest for Calumon's power. I will tell you tomorrow, but for now, we must take a rest and Tamers, it is time to let your family know where you are heading. They have every right to know. Will you do that?"
The Tamers all nodded in agreement.
"Good. Its settled then. Digi-Destined, we shall meet up tomorrow then."
Shintomon and Buddamon go hovering up into the air as they flew off into the far distance away from the city. The Tamers and the Digi-Destined both looked on. Tai and Kari confronted Takato.
"You were great out there, Takato. And I just want to let you know to never give up and your digimon will become strong enough to aid you through future battles. Just believe in yourself and Guilmon's abilities," Tai said.
"Not a problem, Tai. We got that covered."
"You simply always seem to amaze me, Guilmon. Keep it up," Kari said.
"But I wonder what Shintomon has to tell us about the Dark One's true intentions," said Matt, "I guess we'll find out tomorrow morning then."
"And tomorrow is just another day to come," replied Takato.
***************************************************************************************
Elsewhere within the city, Yamaki looks on with a saddened look on his face. Hypnos has been demolished and Yamaki's goal of eliminating all digital life has all but gone down the drain as a result.
"Its over…"
***************************************************************************************
The dark figure looked on at the destruction inflicted on the city of Shinjuku. He simply smirked at the thought of the humans showing fear.
"Master. Makuramon has done his job well. He's captured Calumon and bringing the supply of energy from the planet's strongest warrior."
"Excellent work. Return back to the base at once. We have important matters to attend to."
"Yes, sire. Phase one of our operation has been completed."
As soon as he said that, the figure disappears. There was obviously something going down and it seemed that it was planned since digimon have been mysteriously bio-emerging. The Tamers and the Digi-Destined have no idea that they have been watched.
**************************************************************************************
The Next Day…
After a very hellish day after the attack from Vikaralymon, the city was basically laid in ruins. Families were forced to move out and find shelter elsewhere after all of the clean up was complete. But clean up would take up a lot of time as far as this devastation was concerned.
People from all over the city came over to help rebuild the devastation left by Vikaralymon.
"Things have gotten much more quiet ever since the attack the other day. It was much too quiet. But I don't really know how long that might last though, considering the fact that more Devas are still out there. And not to mention the fact that Calumon has been kidnapped. For the defense of the world and for our families, we knew that we had to find the Digital World. Shintomon even said that there was one digital gate hidden within this city and until we find it, I think that it is the proper time to let our families know where we are heading. It is only right for them to know of our whereabouts. We have no idea of what this Dark One is really up to, but we have to stop him before he forces Calumon to unleash digivolution, which could spell disaster for us Tamers and the Digi-Destined alike."
The top portion of the Hypnos building was basically in ruin, but the building remained standing. Thankfully, it did not collapse like the WTC in New York years ago. Every worker was not present at the very moment, not even Yamaki. Most of the damage has been internally inside of the building rather than the outside. This pretty much sums it up for Hypnos not being a threat to the digimon anymore.
As each of the Tamers met up with their family members, they were questioning their children and were more than happy to see each of them safe. Takato began to wonder how he was going to tell his parents about going into the Digital World. Rika soon began to doubt that she would tell her mother about going into the Digital World. After all of this, the Tamers decided to go on to look for the digital gate, themselves, in order to get that out of the way.
Guilmon was taking a long walk in the park and then decided to return back to his shelter home.
"Oh, my feet are starting to hurt. All of this walking around is going to make me pass out. I don't know Takato can run so much; sometimes I can't even manage to catch up to him. Hey, what's up?"
Guilmon started to sniff the air and then headed towards the shelter bunker. He walked inside and began to investigate around. He looked down at his mound that he had dug up which would be his bed.
"Its under this mound. I better take a look at what it could be."
Guilmon goes down and begins digging up from the mound and starts to investigate at what he could eventually found right under his own home.
**************************************************************************************
Back over at Henry's apartment home, Mr. Wong was sitting over at his computer while researching something concerning the artificial life program, and turned to see Henry walking in.
"Did you call me, dad?"
"Yeah. I want to take a look at your digi-whatever it is."
"You mean, my digivice?"
"Yeah. Let me take a look at it."
Henry gave his D-Ark to his father and he began to examine it. Henry sat there and looked over to see Terriermon walking in.
"These digivices. My guess is that these things could only be used to control digimon on the net, not in real life. I was so surprised that these could be used to control the digimon even in this plane of existence. Apparently, somebody wanted children to have them, despite it risking having digimon all over the world like what the pig monster did. But this wasn't the first time, in fact, I remember that there were digimon invading the world seven years ago during War Games."
"I remember that. There were digimon all over the world, and the Digi-Destined were the only ones that were able to stop them to send them back into the Digital World. But back then, they had digivices that were able to open digital gates, but now they aren't able to open up this digital portal that leads to this 'new' digital world. If only Shintomon had left us more detail."
*************************************************************************************
Elsewhere, Jeri and Leomon were talking amongst one another while looking out towards the stars. Jeri took her sock puppet and was the first to speak.
"Leomon, have you been to this digital world? How is it like?"
"The older digital world was beautiful yet dangerous. There I met the original Digi-Destined and we defeated our first enemy, Devimon. Overtime, I had aided them in many battles against monsters such as Burizalor, the artificials and Virus. As far as this new, advanced digital world is concerned, I've only been there once and it is dangerous. It is more dangerous than my digital world. They have their own set of four guardians, but are said to have more power than the four guardians in the older digital world."
"It must be full of adventure too. I know there will be danger, but also some adventure. I just know it."
"You seem little yet you have a very big and brave heart, your heart is like that of a lion's. I'm impressed, tamer."
"So, are you mad that I'm your Tamer. After all, you said that you were a lone warrior."
"No, if you are destined to be my Tamer, then that's the way it is. Much like each of the Digi-Destined are destined to be with their respective digimon, we're no different. With you at my side, you could eventually help make me stronger."
"I guess I could. I will just have to believe in myself to do it, right?"
"That is correct. You are catching on, young one."
"Thanks."
Jeri pick up her sock puppet and then looks up at Leomon with a smile on her face. Leomon looks up back at the stars from above and thinks about how he should protect Jeri since he has never been the partner of a human before.
"This is so new to me. I've always had to fend for myself all of this time, but how is having a Tamer any different. Well, I guess, I'll soon find out."
*************************************************************************************
Elsewhere, Rika and Renamon were starting to have their conversation concerning the Digital World. Rika was still having mixed emotions on leaving her family behind and leaving for another world that may be in even more peril than anybody realizes.
"Rika. I don't think you should go to the Digital World. It's much too dangerous for you to go. Please, I'm telling you this for your safety, Rika."
"Renamon. I have to go. We're together on this one. You and I alone. No matter how great the situation is…"
Just then, she was soon interrupted by the call of her own grandmother.
"Rika! Honey, are you there?"
Renamon tried phasing away but Rika's grandmother came come walking by to see Rika. She turned to see Renamon, who didn't seem all that afraid of the neon-colored fox.
"Rika. I always knew you had a guardian angel, but I never thought it would be a talking fox."
"So, you don't have a problem with her?"
"Not at all. I think he's simply beautiful. So, is this another one of those things that the reporters on T.V. keep mentioning?"
"Yeah, she's one of them."
"I am Renamon. And I am sorry if I startled you and given you any kind of trouble."
"I don't think your trouble at all. I think you make great company for Rika."
"Grandmother, I need to tell you something."
"What is it, dear?"
"I'm going to be going away for a while."
"OK, but don't you think that your mother should have every right to where you are going."
"That's the problem, if I were to tell her myself, she would start to worry and I don't want her to worry for my safety since I will be guarded by Renamon. I think it would be best if you were to tell her. Would you do that, please?"
"I'll do the best that I can but I will do so. Renamon, will you always be there to watch over my granddaughter while she is away?"
"I will protect her with my life."
"I don't want my mother to worry. I'm going to be fine anyway. Renamon will be with me. I just hope she won't take it as hard."
*************************************************************************************
Back over at Domino City, Yugi was getting his finalized deck prepared. The Battle City tournament was set to take place in the morning. He planned to not only win the tournament but to help Yami in his quest to realize his past.
"Tomorrow is the big day… First, I've got to help Joey get his card back and then make it all the way to the finals. This is a must-win situation for me."
"Yugi!"
The duelist realized that the spirit of his puzzle was contacting him. Yugi responded to Yami's call.
"Yami? Is something bothering you? We have to stay intact for tomorrow's event."
"I understand, but the attacks from Shinjuku have quietly fizzled. It looks as thought it will be safe."
"That's good to know. Those monsters have been appearing in Sinjuku for nearly a whole month!"
"I feel that was just the tip of the iceberg, Yugi. A far greater power will make it's presence felt soon. It not only will threaten Shinjuku but the entire world."
"You told me this the other day. You said that a fearsome power would reawaken and threaten the entire universe."
"Yes. But, we don't have to worry. There are a group of heroes, who will take a stand and do what it takes to defeat this dark power. We must focus on our destiny. We have to defeat the dark power that threatens to take the Millennium Puzzle. We can't let that force gain more power than it already has."
"You're right. I'll never forgive that coward for attempting to separate us. We must stay in synch and triumph. No matter how great the crisis is."
Yugi grasped his Millennium Puzzle while mentally preparing himself for his greatest challenge to date. Tomorrow will mark the beginning of the Battle City matches. Yugi has to be in tip-top form in order to realize Yami's true destiny.
*************************************************************************************
Takato met up with Guilmon later that day as the crimson-colored dinosaur was leading his Tamer all the way towards his shelter home.
"Takato! You won't believe what I found. It was hiding under my home this whole time."
"What? What did you find? Maybe some of that bread that you accidentally left buried?"
"No. No. It's much better than that. Just follow me along. You're going to get a big kick out of this!"
Takato walked inside and noticed a hole that Guilmon had dug earlier ago. Guilmon pointed down and Takato begins his search among the dug-up debris.
"What did you dug for? Dinosaur bones?"
"Just take a look for yourself…"
Takato gasped in disbelief at what he was seeing before him. He peered through and saw a large portal. He quickly came into the realization that it was a digital portal.
"Guilmon! I can't believe you found it!"
Guilmon was about to place his hand near the portal, but Takato snatched his arm away from it.
"Not yet. We better go tell the others about this. But first, I have to go ask my parents for permission. They should have every right to know about where we are heading to."
"Right, and maybe your parents could make a bread shaped like me. Guilmon bread! Yay!"
Takato nodded as he walked off with Guilmon. They were heading out of the park and towards the bakery, where Takato would meet within his parents and introduce them to Guilmon himself. It wouldn't be easy, but then again, nothing is ever easy as far as a digimon was concerned.
**************************************************************************************
[Dark anonymous plays]
Meanwhile, deep within the two worlds, Makuramon was holding a cage of some sort with Calumon trapped inside. He flew through the mysterious void while holding both the cage and the energy drainer. A smile comes across her his face as he peered right at Calumon.
"Soon, my little friend, you shall give my master the power he needs to unleash his latest scheme and you will give him the energy that he needs the most. You're going to be spending a very long time with us in the digital world. The two worlds shall be ours for the taking, and you will be responsible for it."
Calumon could only stand so much as he covered his ears, preventing him from listening to Makuramon's ridiculous rambling.
Elsewhere, Impmon was penetrating right through the portal and manages to fly down through the vortex. His body was still beaten and battered after his encounter with Indramon. He could barely feel his own arms and legs moving, making him very vulnerable.
"So, this is heaven? But once I'm in heaven, I'm supposed to feel like a million bucks. Oh well, its better than dying in the other world, anyway. But I wonder what he'll do to give me the digivolution that I long crave for. Now all of that will soon pay off."
**************************************************************************************
Meanwhile, the Digi-Destined had all gathered over at Kari's apartment home, plus there was a dinner for them all to enjoy for themselves during the discussion.
"Ok. So we know what we must do. We have agreed that us Digi-Destined must help out the Tamers in every other way in this journey into this new digital world. We won't know for sure what we'll be up against but we will work together through thick and thin," said Tai.
"On question, who's going to look after the kids?" asked Davis, "I mean Yolei and Ken can't leave their kid behind. Not to mention Mimi and Matt."
"I'm staying here," said Mimi, "Don't worry. I couldn't even catch up with your guys as far as having a strong digimon is concerned. Besides, I have a child to take care of."
"The same applies for me too," said Yolei, "Ken, I want you to be careful out there."
"Don't worry, honey," Ken replied, "Wormmon and I will come back safe and sound. I promise."
"And you better come back too, Matt. I don't want to have to make a tombstone for you if you don't happen to come back," Mimi said with a smirk on her face.
"Very funny. I doubt we will get killed. I have a feeling that this whole journey will be a piece of cake. Those Devas are not a match for Metalla X," Matt said.
"Sora, what do you think? You want to come?" Tai asked.
"No, I'll be fine. I think you, Kari, TK, Davis, Ken and Matt are more than enough anyways."
"Ok, thanks for letting me go. Are you sure that you can handle coaching an entire team while I am away?"
"Sure. Just leave it to me!"
"And I just got a call from Takato," said Izzy, "He said its over at the park under Guilmon's own home."
"Wow, who would ever guessed that it would have been under his home this whole time," said Patamon.
"And here we were looking all over the city," said Gatomon, "But that big bread-gobbling buddy of ours managed to find it."
"Who knew?"
"So, Izzy, did you happen to find out more on the cards?"
"As a matter of fact, TK, I did. You see, from what I found out. The cards happen to give the Tamer's digimon a boost of power needed during a course of battle. Kind of like upgrading your computer into something more advanced, like a better Internet connection. So in other words, the cards allow the digimon to grow stronger and I have a theory of who might have created the cards."
"Who?"
"Somebody by the name of Shibumi…"
"Shibumi?"
"Yeah, so while you guys are off in the digital world, I will begin investigation on this Shibumi person. Cody are you up for a little bit more investigating?"
"You bet. I really want to see who this Shibumi person is."
"And you told us that he knows so much about our digimon yet we haven't even met this guy. How would he know so much about us," asked Tai.
"That is why I will begin investigating with Cody. We'll let you guys know in time."
"Alright, Izzy. So, Tai, are you ready for a brand new adventure?" Kari asked.
"You know me a whole lot better than that. I'm always ready for a new adventure. I live and breath adventure! It will be just like the good old days."
"Either a brand new adventure of a disastrous hellhole filled with many dangers up ahead for all of us. We have to be extra careful and we better warn the Tamers about this."
***************************************************************************************
The streets were devastated due to Vikaralymon's rampage the other day. Construction workers were doing their best to repair the damages, but it will take weeks to finish. Traffic has been a pain because of this.
Strolling down the street, a black-haired girl was shocked by the turn of events. She had returned from the Feudal era the other day, and was not there to witness the Vikaralymon incident.
"What just happened here? This is just awful!" the girl said.
"Where were you? Were you raised in a cave or something?" a young man with blue hair said.
"I was…Um… Out of town"
"There was a large pig monster that came and demolished the city. Luckily there were these other monsters that came and roasted that porker!" he rambled on.
"Umm, ok…"
Gomamon popped his head through the young man's backpack and curiously looked out to the streets.
"This is what we get for living out of the city," Gomamon said. "Man, I missed all the action!"
"Is that a dog?!" the girl asked. "It just talked…"
"Um. Yeah, it's a toy dog! Yeah, a toy dog! Well, I better get going!"
"Hey, wait a minute, Joe! Who's this?!"
Joe covers Gomamon's mouth and rushes out towards the other side of the side street. The girl looks on with a surprised glare.
"Kagome. How could you have been so stupid?!" the girl thought. "It's not like you've seen a talking animal before! Speaking of talking animals, that Inuyasha is such a jerk! This time I'm not sorry for seeing him kiss that no good Kikyo!"
Kagome sighed and goes about her usual business. She was very upset over the fact that she caught Inuyasha kissing Kiyko. However, she plans on returning back and giving the dog-eared half-demon a piece of her mind.
**************************************************************************************
Elsewhere, within the city, Yamaki was watching the news on television in his apartment. It has been a depressing time for the man who was in charge of the devastating Juggernaut program. He looked through his laptop and sighed in disbelief over the fact that Hypnos was shut down for the time being, due to the incidents that have occurred.
"…It has been said that the giant monster that attacked Shinjuku was a creature called a digimon, but its rampage was the result of a government official's failure, one who was been reprimanded."
"Those fools. What do they know about failures?"
"Mr.Bossman, sir."
"Oh, Riley. What are you doing here?"
"You just can't give up on this. Just because Hypnos is gone, doesn't mean that you can't give up on your ambition."
"I don't know, Riley. I've been pretty much a failure ever since I started Hypnos. Those digimon managed to outsmart me in the long run."
"Hmmm. Maybe, I can still help out."
"What do you have in mind, sir?"
"Those children have been more resourceful that we have been, so its time that we let the children handle this themselves. And I just got the thing that might aid them."
*************************************************************************************
As soon as Takato and Guilmon came walking into the bakery, Mrs. Matsuki took notice of this and she quickly freaked out at the sight of Guilmon.
"Oh my lord!! What is that thing?!"
"Mom, you don't have to freak out. This is a friend of mine…"
"Its too late for that!"
"Here, I'll explain everything over in the back."
"I hope you have a really good explanation, because I was about to call the animal patrol on that thing."
"I got a good explanation. And I need to ask a favor from you."
The Matsuki parents looked over at each other as if their son were losing his mind but they went along and decided to hear everything that their son has to tell about this digimon pet of his.
**************************************************************************************
While Guilmon was looking himself in the mirror, Takato was sitting in a dining table while talking to his parents about hanging with Guilmon.
"So, as you can see, this is my digimon partner, Guilmon. He's also the best friend I could ever have. So all of this time that I've been sneaking out and grabbing bread wasn't for myself, it was all for Guilmon. He has a big appetite for the bread, and I'm sorry for keeping this a secret this whole time. But if I were to tell you about him now, well, you would have probably grounded me for life. So now I decided to let the cat of the bag and tell you the truth. I just hope you aren't mad at me."
The Matsuki parents were looking over at Takato with looks of disbelief on their faces. Even more shocked was Mrs. Matsuki, who was totally against having animals in her home, but now she realize that her son was having contact with the dangerous monsters the reporters call digimon.
"As a matter of fact, my other two friends with their own digimon have been helping me stomp out the evil digimon that have tried to destroy our town. And I need to ask this favor from you. I'm going to be leaving here and going into the digital world. We have this friend named Calumon who was kidnapped and we have to save him."
"Out of the question, Takato! What the hell are you thinking?! You were hanging around with this creature, a thing that is considered dangerous! What if that thing has rabies and you could get hurt. I can't let you go anywhere with this thing!"
"But I'm not a monster," Guilmon said.
"He's right. He's my best friend and I really need to go. I'm definitely going to need a lot of bread for this trip. I have no idea how long we will be gone, but just think of this as a sort of vacation for me," said Takato, "So. Mom? Dad? Will you be able to trust me? It's time that I do things for myself and thus far, I've been much more responsible. So, is it a yes?"
Mrs. Matsuki could barely hold in her anger and let out a few tears as Mr. Matsuki got up from his chair and went walking into the kitchen to start baking some bread. She went to approach her husband and began to question.
"So, what do you have a say in all of this? Your not going to let our son go with that creature, are you?"
"Just let him go, dear."
"Huh?"
"Takato has proven to be a very responsible young man and that creature has protected him all of this time. That's proof enough for me. I say we let him go on this trip."
"But… I can't let him go… He's just a baby… Our only baby…"
"He's not a baby. He's managed to grow up on his own and we as parents should be proud of him for that. You should also consider of what Takato really wants. And what he desires is going on this trip into the digital… Whatever it is."
Mrs. Matsuki stood there as if she was already convinced and then she turned towards her son.
"Is that a yes, mom?"
"Yes… There's nothing more I can do… I just miss holding you when you were a baby. But I'm proud of you my son. Now, go. Your friend might need you. You and Guilmon are together on this one. You've got many friends now. Go."
"Thanks mom. I promise I will come back safe and sound."
"And Guilmon? Your name is Guilmon right?" Mr. Matsuki asked.
"Yeah? That's my name."
"If you promise to come back. I'll bake you the biggest load of bread that you will ever want."
"Maybe some bread shaped like me? Guilmon bread! Yay!"
"Anything you want, but promise to look after my son."
"I will. I promise! Yay! Guilmon bread!!"
Takato stood there with a smile on his face and then looks over at the window.
"Hang on, Calumon. We're coming to the Digital World. We're going to get you out of there."
**************************************************************************************
Back over at Henry's apartment, Suzie was on the couch while playing with Terriermon. Just then, she turns to see her brother walking up to her.
"Henwy! Hi! Me and Tewiermon were just playing a little game."
"That's great, but I got something tot ell you. Its about Terriermon."
"What is it?"
As soon as she turned her back, Terriermon quickly gets out of 'doll state' and taps Suzie on her shoulder. The little purple-haired girl turns to see Terriermon, live and movable. She was shocked beyond belief.
"Hi there, Suzie. I wasn't a doll this whole time. Nope. I'm alive and well. And I'm not 'Miss Pretty Pants', but I still think it has a nice ring to it."
"Suzie. I had just left dad an email message and letting him know that Terriermon and I are leaving for a while. So, promise not to tell dad until then."
But instead of responding to her brother, Suzie goes throwing her arms around Terriermon and starts hugging him to death. Terriermon was choking beyond belief, while trying to catch himself some air.
"Oh, Tewiermon! I knew that you weren't a doll! I knew you were real! I knew it!"
Henry stood there and chuckled at the sight of Terriermon being given the hug treatment by Suzie.
"I better get him out of here before Suzie chokes him to death."
***************************************************************************************
Elsewhere, Rika comes walking into her mother's room wearing one of the pink dresses that her mother had given to her.
"So, mom. What do you think?"
"Oh that looks so gorgeous, dear. You have no idea how much this means to me."
Rika looks over and notices a tear in her mother's eyes. A tear of joy and Rika didn't even share a tear even though she wanted to.
"I would just hate having to tell her that I was leaving, but Calumon needs to be rescue and I won't back out from going into the digital world. Goodbye mother. I hope you and grandmother will be alright when I get back."
***************************************************************************************
Later that day, every single one of the Tamers and the children had already met up with each other. So far, it was Kazu, Kenta, Rika, Henry and Jeri. No signs of Takato or the Digi-Destined anywhere.
"Um, excuse me. But why are you two going with us? It not like you have any partners of your own," Rika remarked.
"Hey! We have every right to go just like you do. Besides, I'm going so I can find a partner of my own," Kazu said.
"Ditto here. We want to see the digital world for ourselves," said Kenta.
"Besides, I lied to my parents and told them that I was going on a school trip," said Kazu.
"I left a note for my mom over a small coffee cup," stated Kenta, "I kind of figured that they wouldn't be home and I wanted to let them know where I would be heading off."
Just then, Takato comes running by with a flag with every single one of the Tamer's faces on them.
"Hey guys! Sorry I'm late! So, how do you like my flag?"
"Ugh! Dude! I'm not that ugly," said Kazu.
"I think it's wonderful," replied Jeri.
"Thanks. That's the first compliment I ever got about my flag. So, all we need to wait for are the-"
"You don't have to go waiting for us," a voice called out.
The Tamers turned around to see none other than the Digi-Destined group themselves. But the only Digi-Destined going with the Tamers were Tai, Kari, TK, Davis, Ken and Matt.
"Tai! Kari! We're glad that you managed to come and you brought along some other Digi-Destined. That's good to know," said Takato.
Shintomon and Buddamon come walking out from behind some bushes.
"And you certainly can't forget about us."
"Shintomon. Alright, now you can tell us what we are truly up against here," Tai stated.
"Yes. And now is the time I should tell you about our true purpose of going into the digital world."
Shintomon clears his throat and then begins a long story concerning the whole purpose of going into the digital world.
"I would like to thank you all for coming here. Tamers and Digi-Destined, we are here for two reasons. One is to save the source of digivolution, that being Calumon. And the other is to find the one known as the 'Dark One'. Without borrowing your powers, we wouldn't have won like we did the other day against the Devas."
"What? You need our help in beating the Devas? I don't know, our power far surpasses theirs," said Tai.
"No, it's not the Devas that I'm worried about. Its the sorcerer that is controlling them."
"A sorcerer?" asked Takato.
"Yes, more like a Madoshi, or a warlock. It all began in the Digital World. About around the time that the internet and data was still in its infancy during the 1980's, digimon had already began to evolve with their powers along with the Legendary Super level digimon, such as myself. During the time, a computer company created an anti-virus that was used to control the outbreak of computer viruses that were rapidly spreading on the net. Until…"
"Until what?" Kari asked.
"Until an evil wizard by the name of BlackMagimon collected a sample of the anti-virus and influenced it with pure evil. He managed to create the anti-virus in the form of a woman. Then it began to destroy everything that were the opposite of viruses and began to destroy everything that was not a threat. In that time, the digital plane began to reach out into the inter-dimensional universe and connected to other planet computers. The being managed to travel to each network and destroyed all digital life by one. The name of this monster is D-Reaper."
"D-Reaper, huh? So what did this thing actually do other than destroy," asked Tai.
"Nothing. It had no feelings. All it ever did was destroy everything in its path. BlackMagimon and D-Reaper formed chaos throughout the Digital Universe. Then came the day when D-Reaper turned on its own creator, so BlackMagimon was forced to seal D-Reaper inside a crystal-like organic ball. And I was the one who killed BlackMagimon. But then…"
"Until now? Does somebody else have access to the D-Reaper?" Henry asked.
"It would seem that BlackMagimon had an inheritance. He had a son. His name is DarkMagimon, the so-called 'Dark One'. He currently resides in this new digital world. As far as D-Reaper is concerned, in just a short amount of time, it left many digital worlds as wastelands and consumed every digital life form it could find."
"Hmm. Sounds like this D-Reaper is just as strong as us fusion warriors," Matt said to himself with a smirk on his face.
Shintomon quickly turns to face Matt.
"No, you're wrong, Yamato. There were four Supreme Guardians, and I was one of them. Each of them would have wiped out the being known as Burizalor within a heartbeat. But then all four fought D-Reaper, only one survived and I'm that survivor. D-Reaper would have wiped out your entire race within the blink of an eye."
"Grr. Why didn't anybody tell me that he could read minds?!"
"Wow! Incredible! So this thing is a lot stronger than we gave it credit for. And your people could have easily destroyed beings like Burizalor and the artificials? That's crazy shit!" said Tai.
"No kidding and Shintomon is among those four Supreme Guardians," said Ken, "I'm willing to bet that you know the four digital guardians."
"Yes. Azulongmon, Zhuqiaomon, Baihumon and Ebwoumon"
"But why didn't you destroy the ball that contained D-Reaper?" asked Renamon, "I mean, you could have had that chance."
"There was no reason too. As long as D-Reaper is confined to that ball, it poses no threat. But we thought so until now when we learned that DarkMagimon was in the digital world. So that is why we must stop him," said Buddamon.
"Now it seems that he is ready to release D-Reaper with that energy. We must go as soon as possible," Shintomon said.
"Not so fast!" a voice called out.
The group turned around to see none other than Yamaki. The digimon all got into defense stances, as they were ready to defend their partners.
"Its creepy dude!" Kazu exclaimed.
"What do you want?" Henry asked angrily.
"So are you children going to the Digital World," Yamaki managed to ask.
"Yeah and you can't stop us either," Tai said.
"Who said that I was?"
As soon as he said that, Yamaki tosses a device over to Takato, who easily caught it with one hand.
"Take it. It could be useful on your journey."
"What is this thing," Takato asked.
"Its a COM device," Yamaki said as he took off his shades. "That way you can communicate with us here in this world."
"Wow, thank you, Mr. Yamaki," said Kari, "You should really see our friend Izzy about this sort of thing."
"Izzy?"
"Yeah, I'm sure you two could get along quite well," said Tai, "And don't worry, we've got this on under control."
"Right on. Al right guys, its time to go to the Digital World!" Takato exclaimed while raising his fist up.
The group all gathered together as they walked inside of Guilmon's shelter and slowly entered the digital gate that would lead them into the new digital world. Shintomon and Buddamon led the way for them.
So our brave Tamers along the the Digi-Destined set off on the journey to the Digital World. There are some with a sense of purpose. Some will find out what they're made of, and some pretty much don't have a clue at what they're doing. All armed, nothing but their hearts and hope of those who left behind, even Yamaki, who seemed to be taking a ride on the happy train. Will they make it?
Deep within the digital vortex, Makuramon was flying through with Calumon trapped inside a cage on one hand and the container filled with Kari's energy in the other. The 'D' letter on his forehead was shining as he was flying his way through into the Digital World where he would report back over to DarkMagimon.
Will they make it is right. After hearing the shocking revelation from Shintomon, the Tamers and the Digi-Destined have to stop DarkMagimon from unleashing the indestructible D-Reaper and rescue Calumon. But how will they be able to complete two missions at once?
