Digivolve into Champions!

The fire from the mane of the lion thing was shooting towards them, splitting into five separate parts to hit all of them at the same time.

Just when it seemed there was no escape, the children's Digimon leapt up and shouted their attacks," Frozen Water!" "Flame Twirl!" "Pearl Burn" "Jewel Strike!" "Mythical Spike!"

Snowmon's body glowed and ice shot out of the white blobs on his body. Firepentmon swung his head and flames came out of the thing on his head. The pearl on top of Pearlmon's head fired again. Jewelmon's jewel glowed and shot off her head with more force than a cannon. The spike on top of Mythicmon's head glowed and he swooped at the fire. The attacks all hit the flames and they exploded.

The force of the explosion threw everyone back, including the lion. He was the first to recover, leaping forwards at the digidestined and driving them back to the edge of a cliff. When they had run as far as the tip, he screamed, "Flaming Mane!"

The rock that supported the kids was too thin to resist the force of the flames attacking it, and broke. The children fell backwards into the sea beneath the cliff. Violet managed to pull out the anorak she always carried and covered Pearlmon's flames, so they wouldn't go out.

"Oh great! I can't swim that well!" John yelled, in fear. As soon as he heard that, Mythicmon curled his tail round him, to break his fall and to keep his head above the water.

The only pair that were not scared were Steve and Snowmon. Steve had won awards for his fast swimming and could hold his breath for about a minute and Snowmon was a natural in the water. When everyone hit the water, both of them helped their friends get to the shore.

"Well, that was fun," Mike commented sarcastically, once he had stopped panting. Suddenly frowning, he glared at Steve," And I did not need your help, Steve. I can swim, you know!" he yelled.

"Really? I'm surprised. You can't even do the doggy paddle!" Steve retorted.

"Can!"

"Can't!"

"Can!"

"Can't, can't, can't!"

Mary sighed," Those two are always fighting," she said, to no one in particular.

The two boys tensed, about to punch each other. Violet calmly stepped in between them," OK, OK, time out," she said, putting her hands together in a T position. She frowned at each of them and they both turned away. Violet could look as if she was staring into your soul if she wanted to.

Before anyone could say anything, the sea started to swirl and huge waves appeared. When they crashed down in front of them, a dark blue Digimon leapt down from the crest. His head had skin moulded into a mock tidal wave on it, and some of it looked as if it was going to crash down, like real water. He had webbed hands and feet and a picture of a tidal wave on his belly. His eyes were black as well.

"Those black eyes are starting to get on my nerves," Violet thought.

Mary opened her mouth and was about to scream when the thing said," It is no use to scream. I am Tidalmon and my heart is as cold as ice. My Tidal Wave attack is feared amongst all Digimon!"

He jumped into the air," Tidal Wave!" The sea reared and formed into a giant tidal wave. It then hurled itself at Steve, he started to step back, but the wave was too fast.

It was about to engulf him when his digivice started to glow. A ball of light, like the one that had hit him when he was transported to Digiworld, shot out of it at Snowmon. When the light hit him, he suddenly shouted, "Snowmon digivolve to Icemon!"

Snowmon had transformed into some kind of white water creature, with four powerful-looking legs, webbed feet, a three-pointed tail, a fin with stripes on his head and another striped one on his back. There was a picture of a sapphire on each of his feet, two on his body, joined with a blue line, one more on each of his fins and his entire body was white. There was a blue line that started at the end of each of the points on his tail, joined up above the middle part, becoming one line that joined to the sapphire on his behind and joining that to the front sapphire. Blue markings that looked like hand-gliders were at the top of his legs. He had a look of majesty and importance.

Mythicmon said," I've heard about Icemon. He's an ice Digimon who can swim up to 8 knots (?) per hour. His Ice Jewel can freeze almost anything, but he'll do anything for his friends."

"He changed!" John shouted.

Icemon glared at the tidal wave that had almost crashed onto Steve. "Ice Jewel!" He tensed and the sapphires all over his body glowed and sent out ice crystals. As soon as the crystals hit the water, it froze into a solid ice statue.

Tidalmon frowned and he was about to fire another Tidal Wave when Icemon unleashed another Ice Jewel.

As soon as the ice hit Tidalmon, something strange happened. His eyes started to flash and something started to come out of his back. As it came further out, the others realised it was some kind of black ball. When it had come all the way out, Tidalmon fell, headfirst, onto the sand.

When Tidalmon fell down, Icemon started to glow. When the light faded, Snowmon was lying there, exhausted. Steve ran up to him.

"Hey, are you all right?" Steve asked, concern in his voice.

Snowmon opened his eyes and smiled," Of course I'm all right. That was easy!"

Then, he raised his upper right foot, standing on his hind-legs. Understanding the gesture, Steve slapped his hand against it. Mary smiled.

"Well, at least Steve's got someone to keep an eye on him," she thought and glanced at Jewelmon. She wondered if she would turn into a stronger creature. Then a look of worry appeared on her face," What if, when she digivolves, she won't want to be with me anymore!"

Jewelmon could see the worry in Mary's face, "Wonder what's wrong?" she thought. She hoped it wasn't anything to do with her.

Before Jewelmon could ask what was wrong, Steve stood up, holding Snowmon in his arms, "OK, we saw what happened. We need to find out where that ball came from. Let's go!"

So saying, he started to stride away from the beach. The others followed, Mike at the rear. He thought," I'm not sure that Steve should be leader. But, if he's going to be I have to trust him.".

WILL MIKE LEARN TO TRUST STEVE? AND WHAT IS THE SECRET OF THE MYSTERIOUS BLACK BALLS? FIND OUT ON THE NEXT DIGIMON: DIGITAL MONSTERS!

Author's Note: Well, this was. short. Oh, and I forgot to put a disclaimer on my last episode, so. DIGIMON NO BELONG TO ME!!!!!!!!!! THE DAY IT DOES, TAITO AND DAIKEN WILL RULE SUPREME!!!!!! (Pause) Oh, and Omnimon would show up. He's cool. Plus, Change into Power would be played more often. I LOVE THAT SONG! (However, I got `Run Around` going round my head for almost the entire school day. Curses! ~_~. It's good song, but it gets a bit repetitive if you only know about 4 lines, and one of them is pure improvisation)
