Once again, I have followed up with the next segment of this movie fic. Whew, we're already into the action, aren't we? The fight against Gyrogmon's minions was merely a taste of what to expect once Gyrogmon shows his stuff. Ok, maybe not stuff but he's going to definitely give War Greymon a fight!

(Play Drowning Pool's theme Let the Bodies Hit the Floor)
The fist of the Gyrog warlord connected with War Greymon's face. War Greymon was sent plummeting down towards the ship but he manages to recover quickly and flies out back at Gyrogmon. They engaged a rapid melee array of kicks and punches. They moved so fast that not even the digimon could keep up.
Fist after fist was thrown, along with an array of kicks. Both highly classed megas attacked each other without showing any signs of fatigue just yet. Kick. Punch. Kick. Block. Punch. Kick. Kick. Block. The process repeated itself several times over.
"What's the matter? Is this the best you've got, worm?" Gyrogmon taunted his adversary.
Finally, Gyrogmon caught both of War Greymon's fists. They struggled against one another in a test of strength and the warlord was winning the contest. Gyrogmon took advantage of the situation with a knee directly into War Greymon's gut and then a clubbed fist smash across the mega's back. The force of the blow sent War Greymon plummeting towards the ground below.
"No! War Greymon!" Tai cried out once witnessing his partner being beaten from the start. "This Gyrogmon's that damn good and he's already starting to take War Greymon apart!"
…
Tai and the Digi-Destined watched in horror, as their beloved War Greymon was stuck head first through the ground. The mega warrior started moving his legs about while attempting to pull himself out of his current predicament. Gyrogmon descends down to where War Greymon was stuck and approaches him unknowingly.
"Sometime during my youth, you would have stood a chance, but now you're fighting me, Lord Gyrogmon, at his prime!" Gyrogmon bellowed while pulling War Greymon out by his foot.
Holding War Greymon like a prized trophy, Gyrogmon dangled his body and tossed him across the landscape. The mega was thrown far off into the distance and goes flying through a pickup van. The impact created a small explosion as the exhaust motor of the van caused it to detonate. War Greymon was thrown through a small shop window and be buried under a pile of broken wooden boxes and glass shards. The digimon warrior struggled to sit up with an excruciating pain flowing through his body.
He breathed heavily under his breath while maintaining a glare directly towards Gyrogmon. Tai and the others watched as their most powerful was now in a tight spot.
"C'mon, War Greymon! Get up and stay in this fight!" Tai calls out in encouragement for his partner.
"This isn't looking good for War Greymon!" exclaimed TK. "Now, we're really in for it!"
"No, he won't give up! This fight has just only started!" Kari replied.
"I'd hate to say this, but Gyrogmon is already gaining the advantage. War Greymon just now received heavy damage," stated Joe. "I really don't like being the bearer of bad news…"
"We get it, Joe," Sora didn't take her eyes off War Greymon. "But you're forgetting War Greymon manages to pull through with an ace up his sleeve!"
"That's right! You really hit the mark with that comment!" Tai agreed with his best female friend. "War Greymon has never let us down! Gyrogmon won't know what hit him!"
Setting their eyes back on the siege, Gyrogmon was methodically marching across the devastated landscape. War Greymon slowly made it back to his feet while catching his breath. He looked around to see Leomon attempting to revive Patamon and Gatomon from their unconscious states.
"Gatomon… Patamon… Hang in there," Leomon whispered to the two fallen digimon.
War Greymon turns back towards enemy methodically walking across. He panted heavily while thinking of any strategy to implement against this powerful space pirate.
"Gosh… What now? I can't even stand up to this guy. Tai. Kari. TK. Leomon. Everyone. I'm sorry… I don't think I can defeat him on my own… After all the techniques used and training I've undergone, my power is still no use against him! He's picking me a part," War Greymon thought while panting.
"So, tell me! How many more seconds can you last?" Gyrogmon calls out directly towards his adversary.
Just before War Greymon could even react, two beams came shooting straight out of Gyrogmon's eyes. The mega digimon pulls out his Brave Shields out of his back and stops the beams using his defensive shield. This gave War Greymon enough time to leap forward onto battlegrounds and reattach his shields on his back.
The mega quickly gets off the ground, flips over and jumps right back to his feet. He finds himself standing at the center of a long, 'old Western style' trail except there was a large poster board with lights reading Iguana Street. Gyrogmon walks through a massive stone column without even flinching. As the column collapsed, it fell and shattered into an array of shattered debris. This in turn threw up a cloud of smoke in the process. The Gyrog leader stepped through the smoke cloud and marched across towards the path where War Greymon was standing.
As the mega was catching his breath, he looked ahead to find Gyrogmon marching closer and closer towards him. He leaped forward and slammed his right fist against Gyrogmon's stone. The impact blow caved into the mutant's left cheek and even caused his head to turn. However, other than that, it did not affect or even slow the Gyrog leader one bit. He chuckled under his breath and snatches War Greymon's extended arm. His eyes widened out in utter disbelief, as he couldn't believe that his full punch wasn't enough. Gyrogmon retaliates with his own fist and slams it against War Greymon's helmet-protected face. He sends the mega warrior crashing through a nearby shop window.
Shattered glass flew across the ground, in which Gyrogmon stepped over with his boots. They crunched under the sheer weight of his steps while marching forward to where War Greymon was laying under a pile of debris. Gyrogmon pulls War Greymon up by his chest armor, hoists him up with one hand and smacks him across the face with a devastating slap. This had enough force to send War Greymon sailing across the battlefield.
"Aw, crap! He's getting creamed!" Tai exclaimed.
Just then, Tai paused for a second and fell down to the ground as if an invisible force slapped him across the face. The Digi-Destined took full notice of this and rushed over to their fallen leader.
"TAI!" the children exclaimed while gathering around his side.
"Tai! Are you all right? What just happened!" Sora cried out in worry and held him on her side.
"Tai! You had me worried! What's the deal?" Kari asked.
"I… I don't know… One second War Greymon was just smacked around and then… BAM! I get knocked off my feet! I don't know by who through… I don't even remember seeing or feeling anyone sneaking up on me…"
"Whoa… That's weird! We saw you getting knocked to the ground but by who…? We have no idea!" TK replied. "But War Greymon's taking a beating!"
"C'mon… War Greymon… Stay in the game… You can't quit now…" Tai muttered under his clenched teeth.
Meanwhile, the situation certainly did not turn out well for War Greymon. The Gyrog leader took advantage of a recovering War Greymon and slammed his fist directly into the armored warrior's chest. This caused War Greymon to cough out of a mouth full of saliva and blood mixed with it. He could even feel his own oxygen being knocked right out of his digital lungs and his ribs nearly being crushed in the process. All this from one single blow! However, Gyrogmon was not done here. He follows it up with a cringing uppercut into War Greymon's jaw. The mega nearly felt his jaw completely broken into two with this direct physical contact!
Soon, Tai felt these same blows, too. It's almost as if he and War Greymon were somehow becoming 'linked' as one. The goggle boy doubled over once his stomach ached from an invisible blow directed towards it. He even spat out a mouthful of blood in the process.
"OH MY GOD!" Sora gasped in horror at the sight of the crimson mass escaping the boy's mouth.
"TAI!" the younger Digi-Destined screamed out together.
"Taichi…" Leomon grunted as he struggled to move about.
Joe rushes over to where the children gathered over the leader. He pulls out some cloth to wipe off the blood pouring down from his mouth. He then gently pats the boy on his back.
"Tai! Can you hear me? Tai!" Joe calls out directly at the goggle boy. "Tai! Answer me!"
"What are you doing, Joe?" asked Sora.
"I'm trying to catch his attention to see if he's still completely there. So far, I can't even reach out to him. He's going to lose it especially if he takes any more blows like these. But, this is really too weird for me to examine…"
"I know… Somehow I think he and War Greymon are suddenly becoming connected," the redhead predicted.
"What… do you mean connected?" Joe asked curiously.
"It somehow has something to do with the crest of courage. They are becoming closely linked as if they were one body and one mind… The heavy damage War Greymon is taking… Tai is feeling the same."
"Wow, you really think so?" TK asked. "That's just too weird for me to believe!"
"But this is my brother we're talking about here! If War Greymon takes any more blows like this, my brother could end up dying!" Kari cried out with a few tears coming down her face. "Please, not my brother!"
…
Meanwhile, Gyrogmon continued with the torturous pummeling to War Greymon and picked War Greymon up with one hand. A sinister grin formed across the mutant's face as he raised his other fist back.
"Oh no, we're not done yet!"
Hollering out, Gyrogmon threw his fist forward and slammed it directly against War Greymon's face again.
…
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!
…
Once the fist made its mark, that loud crunch echoed across the now-abandoned metropolis. These ear-screeching screams were enough to cause the children to wince. Even Tai couldn't stand to hear his partner suffering the mutant's wrath.
Then, without warning, Tai's body was immediately jolting about and being thrashed around by invisible punches. It was as if a ghost were beating the living be-jeesus out of him. Sora attempted to restrain the boy but Joe was quick to stop her. Kari looked on with a horrified expression and knew her brother was in a tight mess. Her brother spat out even more blood out of his mouth. Some of the crimson mass splashed across Kari's face as she flinched back and wiped it off her face.
"Kari!" TK rushes over to the girls' side. "Are you all right?"
"Yeah…! I was just thrown off my guard just a second ago… Please, Tai! Wake up!" the Kamiya girl pleaded for her brother.
The elder Kamiya boy was kneeling down while panting heavily. He noticed the blood dripping from out of his mouth and felt a painful sensation throbbing in his chest. He wondered whether these blows were due to his connection with his partner War Greymon.
"What's going on here…? Ow, my chest hurts and now I'm spitting blood? What the hell is this? What does it mean…? Is it due to the crest and my connection bond with War Greymon? If that's true and the event War Greymon gets pummeled further, I might as well be done for!"
"I really hate to be the bearer of bad news, but War Greymon's getting mangled out there!" Joe pointed out towards the massacre at hand.
"No! C'mon, War Greymon!" TK growled. "Fight back!"
"Hang in there, Tai… All we have to do is believe in War Greymon and something will pull through. I just know it will and I won't lose hope!" Sora thought while grasping Tai's hands. "We're here with you and War Greymon all the way through!"
…
Suddenly, War Greymon found himself being smashed through a brick wall and going head first through. He winced in tremendous pain while his head throbbed like there was no tomorrow. The warrior was stuck through this wall and left there to lie unconscious. However, Gyrogmon was not through just yet with the punishment. He pulls War Greymon out of the wall and holds him up.
The Gyrog leader proceeds to deliver a devastating knee lift into War Greymon's chest. Then, he followed it up with right hand across the mega warrior's face. After that, another knee smash into War Greymon's abdomen and another one. He proceeds to pummel War Greymon's face in with fist shots that nearly shattered his facemask.
…
BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!
…
Seven straight punches were delivered by Gyrogmon to War Greymon. Shots around his face, into his chest and one into his abdomen. All of these painful were already taking their toll on War Greymon. One more knee smash into his abdomen and Gyrogmon polishes him off with a straight right jab across the mega's face. The sheer force sent War Greymon flying across the long trail and in turn caused his armed claw gauntlets to fall off. The warrior was left kneeling around a pile of cinders and debris while staring down his approaching enemy. There was no chance he could defeat him with his current strength and he felt ashamed to have let the Digi-Destined down.
(End theme)
" Everyone… I'm can't give up… Everyone's counting on me… Tai… Sora… Kari… TK… Izzy… Joe… Mimi… Leomon… My fellow digimon… Lend me your energy… If there's anything left to give, I need it now… This is our last chance…"
…
Looking around towards his comrades, he caught glimpse of Tai. He was horrified by the condition the boy had sustained. Was he somehow taking the same hits as he was? That question was wandering within his thoughts right then and now.
"Tai! What happened…? Why are you hurt? It's as if you've been taking the amount of damage as I have… Does this have anything to do with our bond and connection due to the power of the Crest of Courage? That must be… it. Tai, please… don't suffer… I shall sacrifice myself for the sake you and everyone else… If only I had enough energy…"
Just then, a new voice spoke out from within War Greymon's thoughts through telepathy. This voice sounded like a teenage boy yet so similar to Tai's voice. War Greymon immediately realized who it was that was communicating with him. It was none other than…
"I'm afraid they have nothing left to give, War Greymon…"
"X! Is that you? You've been watching this have you?"
"Of course. I oversee everything that take place across the eastern Digital cosmos. This is just bad! Gyrogmon has been notorious as a space pirate that raided other planets. He and Burizalor were great rivals during and after the wars. If there was any monster that rivaled the tyrant's power, it this guy. He's no joke and you came across him at the wrong time."
"What should I do? Tai's already in a…"
"Terrible shape. I should have foreseen this. You correct on your assumption. The reason Tai is taking damage just as you are now is all due to the crest itself. Your bond and connection has become strong with Tai. In the process, your heart, body and mind are becoming one. That's all I can tell you… Please, escape now while you have the chance! This is a battle you cannot win!"
"No… I refuse to cut and run… Tai and the others need me… I have to defeat Gyrogmon and restore peace to this village. If Gyrogmon is left alive, this whole planet will become his… I will continue to fight until I DIE!"
Suddenly, as soon as War Greymon said that, the Crest of Courage was emitting a bright orange light. The Digi-Destined gasped out in shock once the crest shot out a powerful aura of light. Tai himself became engulfed by the light and risen up as if he were lifted up by a spirit.
"What's happening?" Sora wondered out of concern for War Greymon.
"It's his crest! His crest is glowing and this could mean a good omen for War Greymon! Their connection is so strong that it has triggered a reaction!" Izzy replied. "At least that's how my theory works…"
"For some reason, I believe you!" Kari nodded in agreement. "Gyrogmon won't know what hit him!"
"This is just what we needed! Hopefully, it'll give War Greymon the boost he needs!" Joe replied.
Tai gasped out once realizing he was covered by an orange aura. The boy even felt his body being healed in the process. All the cuts, wounds and blows were 'washed away' by the crest's light. He somehow felt his own heartbeat and that of War Greymon's. Their hearts were indeed becoming one. He could even read War Greymon's thoughts.
"What is this? I feel… healed, but it's all so weird! Some how I can read War Greymon's thoughts and feel his heart in synch with mine… We're really in a tight spot, but what I really hope for is to defeat this creep and protect my loved ones! X! Whatever you told War Greymon, I'm glad you helped to trigger the crest of courage's power…"
"That was not I, Tai. It was all thanks to you. You triggered the crest's power yourself."
"Ok, makes sense… Don't think I'm out of the game just yet! Gyrogmon's in big trouble if he thinks this is over!"
"Then, show him what you and War Greymon are made!"
"Count on it!"
…
The Gyrog leader methodically marches towards a kneeling War Greymon. He stops at mid-pace and grins in delight. He took pleasure in seeing War Greymon on his knees and starting to pray for mercy.
"Well, I'm growing bored. It's time for you to die!" Gyrogmon chuckled while his right fist was glowing a green aura.
After a few moments of paused silence, Gyrogmon threw out his fist across to deliver the final blow to War Greymon. Just as his fist came into contact… WHAM!…
(Play Three Doors Down theme Kryptonite)
Gyrogmon noticed his fist being caught by War Greymon and this came right out of nowhere! He stared directly at War Greymon in utter disbelief and left an overwhelming ki flowing around the warrior. Faint golden-orange ki flowed directly out of War Greymon. He lifted his head up and his eyes were now completely white. No pupils or irises whatsoever. Just completely white! Anger and hate had now consumed War Greymon and turned him into a raging demon! Then… that same golden-orange aura exploded and flowed all around War Greymon.
Light bulbs and windows quickly shattered during the digimon's new ascension to power. Yes, his power was enough to crack every source of glass within the metropolis! Shards of glass rained down upon the village and sparks of electricity shot out from out of his aura. This caused the small metropolis to short circuit and cut off every source of electricity, leaving only War Greymon's aura as the only light source available.
Gyrogmon was taken back by this new power ascension. He widened his eyes in utter disbelief. It was like nothing he had EVER seen before! He was looking right into the eyes of a raging demon! The warlord had hell to pay!
"WHAT IS THIS! HIS POWER IS GROWING QUICK! WHAT COULD HAVE TRIGGERED THIS!"
That same question even wondered through the minds of the Digi-Destined, who were watching the event unfold! What's more was that Tai's body was overflowing with the same golden-orange ki aura! The children tried to approach him but they shot back by the sheer magnitude of the aura. One step forward and they could have been incinerated. However, it's amazing how the boy was taking this amount of pressure without detonating himself in the process!
"ARGH!" Tai cried out as he clenched his right hand.
Simultaneously copying his human partner, War Greymon clenched his right hand and pressed hard on Gyrogmon's left fist. He crunches the fist downward and bends the warlord's fingers back. The Gyrog overlord howls in pain as he held his arm. In just a matter of seconds, War Greymon used newfound strength to completely snap it completely. Even every trace of bone in his arm shattered. Gyrogmon jumps back and holds his hanging left arm.
"Did you just see that?" Sora pointed out. "My god… Tai! How are you and War Greymon…"
"It has to do with their crests! Their in synch with one another because of their crests!" Izzy explained. "Gennai reminded me that only those with enough strength in their hearts would summon this kind of power!"
"There's no doubt my brother shares a strong link with War Greymon!" Kari agreed. "Their combined strength will be enough to put this creep down for good!"
"Go, War Greymon! Give it to him!" TK cheered out for the mega warrior. "Avenge Patamon and Gatomon's loss!"
"Something tells me if War Greymon isn't careful, his power is going to end up destroying this place," Joe gulped. "Especially after he gained this new power… Tai, I recommend you be careful. Don't overdo it!"
Unleashing a raging scream, Tai threw his right fist forward as if he were punching an invisible person. War Greymon follows up by doing the same; except in his case, he landed his fist across Gyrogmon's face. The force of the blow sends the Gyrog leader falling off his feet and landing on the back concrete. Gyrogmon looks directly towards War Greymon with fear plastered across his face and with a dry mouth. He couldn't even utter a single word to describe the sheer power of War Greymon.
The mega was standing out at the center with his body rippled with electricity and a healthy, golden-orange aura expanding outward.
"He… He was already beaten! How could this be?" Gyrogmon wondered while struggling to stand up.
War Greymon was not finished with the warlord and launched himself across. He lands a kick across Gyrogmon, which sends him crashing through a stone column. He was buried under a large pile of debris until he managed to fly out of the debris. Gyrogmon took cover towards the skies and waited for War Greymon to meet him head-on. This was exactly what War Greymon did as he flew across towards Gyrogmon to deliver more punishment.
As War Greymon screamed out in rage, Tai did the same as well. Their eyes were both completely white as if they were possessed by a supernatural force.
"What's happening to Tai? He's starting to scare me!" Sora gasped out in thought. "Tai's pushing the new power too far!"
…
"Hmmm. Wow, this hasn't happened before under the time I served as watcher of the eastern digi-galaxy…" X said in thought while watching the battle unfold. "I thought War Greymon would… So, this is the full power of the crest? That's it! Now I get it! Somehow, Tai and War Greymon are becoming simultaneously linked with one another! This is trait when one becomes merged with a digital being, such as a digimon! It has to be the legend of the Digital Fusion Warrior! Could Tai and War Greymon be the two entities to form the ultimate warrior that was prophesied for the past several digi-millennia? It has to be true! I want it to be true! Looks like Gyrogmon is getting his just desserts, at the hands of a legend nonetheless!"
With X watching fight unfold from his world, the fight was returning to War Greymon's favor. The mega speed-blitzed around Gyrogmon and slammed into him several times over. BAM! BAM! The warlord was taking the punishment from the furious digimon warrior like there was no tomorrow. The face of War Greymon was twisted with a blood-curling hatred and anger. War Greymon cried out loudly as he clasped his hands together and delivered a fist smash across Gyrogmon's back. The force sends Gyrogmon plummeting down towards the devastated landscape below.
"My word…" Gyrogmon muttered before getting back on his feet and looking up towards War Greymon. "Where does his strength come from? What's his secret?"
The warrior continues his attacks by launching out numerous ki blasts down. The ki shots showered across the landscape and caught the injured Gyrogmon along with it. He became engulfed by the billowing smoke created from the raining blasts. While attempting to blow away the smoke cloud, War Greymon phases out directly in front of Gyrogmon and spears him across the landscape. He pushed the warlord across and through a stonewall.
They came penetrating out through the other side. Gyrogmon found himself landing out on one side with his left arm dangling like a spaghetti string; since it was obviously broken by War Greymon. Flying out through a wall on the opposite side of the aisle, War Greymon was basking in his golden-orange aura. The ground under his feet broke apart due to the sheer magnitude of War Greymon's strong aura and caused rocks to rotate around him.
…
"Awesome! Incredible!" TK and Kari exclaimed in unison.
"Prodigious! War Greymon's taking it to him! I never thought we'd be seeing this!" Izzy shouted in disbelief. "The Crest of Courage sure did its trick!"
"Yeah, I'll have to agree," Sora nodded. "Tai! Are you going to be all right?"
There was no answer reply from the goggle boy. He was straining from the new power and fell to his knees. Then, the sheer light of his crest was dimming down. It was probably safe to assume that the sheer power he and War Greymon possessed was quickly losing its luster.
"What the heck… just happened?" Tai returned to reality and his eyes returned to normal.
"What? You mean you don't even remember what you did just now? You and War Greymon were just awesome!" TK praised the goggle boy.
"You did great, big brother!" Kari hugged her brother's leg.
"Sora? You mind telling me what's going on? Izzy? Joe?"
"Well, it's rather hard to explain…" Sora stated. "Izzy, mind explaining to him?"
"I guess I'll give it a shot…"
"Hold on! Something's about to go down between those two!" Joe pointed back towards the confrontation of the two megas.
"… X, I wonder if you had anything to do with this?" Tai whispered before shifting his focus on the standoff. "Wow! You look wicked, War Greymon! Did you just wreck Gyrogmon? I sure did miss out on the fun!"
…
(End theme)
War Greymon stared down his adversary with eyes filled with hatred. However, the villain was no longer sporting a terrified glare. A smile forms across his face once he reached down into his utility belt.
"You sure are full of surprises, aren't you?" Gyrogmon snickered. "I didn't think you'd come this far. So then, I guess I'll have to reveal my true power, too!"
With that said, Gyrogmon used his right hand and swiftly ripped off his left one. He tossed his severed arm on the ground and displayed a purple stump flowing with a crimson mass. He reached into his utility belt using his good arm and pulls out a green fruit that looked like a plum. War Greymon watches on in utter disbelief at how casually Gyrogmon ripped his own arm off. Now, even more surprising, was the fruit held by the warlord.
The villain swallowed the green fruit whole and quickly was give a new surge of energy in the process. Then, without warning, Gyrogmon bent forward and howled out in excruciating pain. The limbless stump pushed outward and grown another new arm in the process. It was completely green and muscular. Gyrogmon removed the sleeve off his other arm to reveal a cybernetic limb. Finally, he removes his helmet and drops it to the ground. His head was completely green with a pair of Martian-like antennae protruding out.
"What! My goddramon… You just grew another arm!" War Greymon shouted. "Explain yourself!"
"Certainly. As you can see, the fruit I just ate has given me a new supply of energy. However, it also serves as a method to regrow lost limbs! As long as I eat these fruit, I can regrow any limb I so choose to desire. However, wait there's more! The fruit also have a side effect to them as well! Watch and learn what I mean!"
As soon as he said that, the ground under the warlord's feet began to tremble. Rocks lifted off the ground as if a gravitational force had set in around the area. Gyrogmon himself was undergoing physical changes. His body started to grow larger until he expanded over the metropolis. Gyrogmon was transforming into a rather intimidating titan of gigantic proportions.
War Greymon looks up with a horrified expression across his face. His enemy was taking on a gigantic form that eclipsed even the tallest of structures within the metropolis: the village's own skyscraper that stood nearly 34 feet tall.
Even the children were terrified by the sudden turn of events. Leomon sat up as he grabbed a hold of TK and Kari to cover them. The other children simply started to walk back before being noticed by the titan himself.
Then, at the same time, both Andromon and Altur Kabuterimon arrived back just in time to notice everyone glancing towards the gigantic Gyrogmon. Simply put, they were just as shocked.
"Well, I guess we came at the wrong time," Altur Kabuterimon stated. "My goddramon…"
"So, this is Gyrogmon's true power? Unbelievable!" Andromon shouted. "I'm afraid not even myself can hope to defeat this creature!"
"No joke…" Leomon muttered as he struggled to battle the pain. "He's too much for even War Greymon, our greatest asset of the team…"
Suddenly, both Tai and War Greymon were getting a telepathic message simultaneously by X himself. The masked warrior was quick to warn them about Gyrogmon.
"Tai! War Greymon! I know him!"
"You're kidding! You know you know this monster?" Tai asked the masked man.
"Gyrogmon is a Gyrogian that left the Planet Gyrog, before its immediate extinction… He's one of the ancient Gyrogians who found a higher consciousness of power within. He was one of the Yami Gyrogians! He was amongst those who became poisoned with his new power and begun to misuse it. It was then that the Gyrogians banished these monsters from their home world. Gyrogmon was sent to Planet Scyrog, a planet residing within the Dark Dimension territory. He's no ordinary Gyrog digimon. In general, the Gyrogs are a peaceful race but it's these few corrupted individuals who wanted to use their powers for wicked acts of sorcery!"
(Play Disturbed theme Step Up)
Gyrogmon stretched out his whole body and laughed aloud for everyone to hear. It was truly monstrous and enough to scare the wits out of anyone close by. Even the brave duo, War Greymon and Tai, were scared out of their wits. Nonetheless, they weren't going to surrender to this monster.
"Ha! What's wrong? Has the sight of my true form frightened you, warrior?" Gyrogmon's laughed thunderously for all to hear.
"Gyrogmon probably doesn't realize it himself, but through a rare mutation to Gyrogians, ever since he was born, evil was the only trait to have grown in his heart. As a result, he and a few other Yami Gyrogians were banished from their home world," X explained while speaking to both Tai and War Greymon. "Many perished but Gyrogmon was the only, well-known one that survived by becoming a space pirate and had no place to call home. Therefore, he gathered men together and began a campaign to wreck the home planets of many digimon, including his own home world. He was amongst the few to even give tough competition to Burizalor's forces. They were in a power struggle for a while until Gyrogmon was forced to retreat. Since then, he's raided other home planets and finally arrived in this world. He's always targeted this world and wants to claim it before anyone else does. He is a Gyrogmon with a heart filled with one hundred percent evil. Convincing him to change his ways will not cut it. The only method to truly stop him is to kill him!"
"Kill him? Well, that's exactly what I set out to do in the first place! There is no other way!" Tai exclaimed. "I hope you heard that loud and clear, War Greymon!"
"Of course! This monster has no regrets! I doubt he'd be sorry for hurting the digimon of this world! It's my duty to stop him at his tracks!" War Greymon declared. "Gyrogmon! If you want me, come and get me!"
As soon as War Greymon made his point clear, Gyrogmon's giant foot stepped across and nearly flattened the mega. War Greymon leaped away and flew out behind a stonewall. This gave the mega enough time to catch his breath.
"Unless I miss my guess, Gyrogmon is strong enough to contest Burizalor or even a Digital Fused warrior!" X continued.
"You're kidding!" Tai shouted out. "War Greymon! Stay alert! He's coming your way!"
Gyrogmon smashes his way through several stone walls by simply kicking them away. He focused on smashing down several small structures with a simple hand swing. War Greymon still managed to remain well hidden behind one wall that Gyrogmon did not tear down. However, his moment of recover was abruptly ended as Gyrogmon smashes down the final stone wall. This gave War Greymon a chance to fly around the giant and launch a ki blast across his back.
The blast merely fizzled out across Gyrogmon's back but managed to catch his attention. The titan turns around to find that War Greymon had disappeared from sight.
"Now, where did you go!" Gyrogmon bellowed out for everyone to hear.
"War Greymon had better watch himself," Andromon informed everyone.
"Altur Kabuterimon. In the event War Greymon is in trouble, don't hesitate to fly in there and aid him in any possible method you can implement," Izzy whispered to his partner.
"Right!"
"Oh, War Greymon. Don't let him find," TK whispered as he held his unconscious Patamon.
"Where are you, War Greymon? I just hope you're doing all right," Tai thought worryingly.
…
The mega found himself standing behind a massive stone wall and used this collective time to catch his breath. Just when he had chosen the perfect hiding spot, a large, green hand plowed through the wall to his surprise! War Greymon was forced to flee across an abandoned street until another massive, green fist smashed its way through the ground. The fist punched through the concrete and sent War Greymon falling down through the depths. The mega warrior found himself lying on the ground. Just as he was getting back to his feet, the other hand plunged through the underground ceiling and attempted to catch War Greymon from there. War Greymon noticed the massive hole created by the hand and flies directly through the ceiling hole.
He finally reemerged onto the surface. The mega is once again caught by surprise when the second hand plunged from underground.
"DAMN!" War Greymon cursed as he flew across and landed beside a tall building structure.
The warrior found himself in a rather tight spot with nowhere else to retreat. He feared that if he sped off across that his 'ki' would attract Gyrogmon from underground. He had to think of a method to escape before it was too late.
"Now where did he go? How could a guy that big be hiding? Crap…!"
Before War Greymon had a chance to react, a massive green hand emerged from out of the building behind him. The hand came within a hairbreadth of a millisecond to snatch the mega. War Greymon jumped and started running across the long aisle. Then, the other hand emerged from the other side to stop War Greymon from escaping. War Greymon flied across to the other side but was immediately cut off once Gyrogmon's head popped right out of the building. The giant had a big, fat grin across his mutant chagrin.
"SO, NOW WHAT! HA! HA! HA!" Gyrogmon laughed out and taunted his smaller adversary.
Having heard enough from his adversary's taunting laughter, War Greymon growled and cupped his hands together. He was preparing to launch out his patented Terra Beam, until Gyrogmon opened his mouth to unleash a gigantic mouth blast. War Greymon was caught within the blast and sent hurtling across. The blast was powerful enough to reduce half the metropolis down to rubble. The explosion forms itself into a mushroom-like fire cloud that was nearly a reminder of what an atomic warhead would have looked like. Fortunately, the children and their digimon were a long distance away from the fray. However, the Digi-Destined screamed out for the mega's namesake. Tai and Kari were the most terrified of the group. Losing War Greymon would be their most devastating blow to their team.
"NO! WAR GREYMON!" Tai exclaimed in horror of possibly losing his partner. "NO! DON'T YOU DIE!"
"This can't be happening… Not War Greymon…" Kari cried with tears coming down her face.
"No! This can't be!" Sora shouted.
"War Greymon! If you're gone, then who else is left to challenge this monster?" TK lost hope despite his crest representing that same 'trait'.
"We're done for…" Joe gulped. "I hate to say it but it's true…"
"I hope Mimi and Lillymon managed to get everyone of those villagers out," Izzy thought.
Outside the metropolis/village
Looking on from the far distance, the villagers witnessed half of their whole community being reduced to rubble. Many have lost their homes and occupation shops. Families cried but they all escaped with no lives sacrificed. Their lives were completely spared. Jijimon and Babamon held onto one another as they mourned for the loss of their home.
Mimi and Lillymon couldn't help but feel terrible for these poor digimon losing their homes. Once Mimi caught glimpse of the towering Gyrogmon, there was a mixed emotion of fear and anger in her heart. Fear of losing her friends and digimon to this monster, but hatred for the terrible atrocities Gyrogmon has perpetrated on these innocent digimon.
"I can't stand this anymore, Lillymon! Every time we meet a nice group of digimon, some heartless monster wants to go about destroying their most treasured lives."
"I know Mimi! What can we do? Even my power is too low to even catch that monster's attention. He'll flatten me for sure!"
"We're just going to have to give it our all!" Mimi grasped Lillymon's hand. "Let's go!"
"But, what about these digimon?"
"Oh, don't worry about us. You and your human friend go! Your friends are waiting for you!" Jijimon nodded his head.
"You are the Digi-Destined! Free our home of this cursed villain!" Babamon gave Mimi and Lillymon the support they needed.
"We the villagers of this fine village support you! Go, Digi-Destined! Bring freedom to our land once again!" Jijimon rallied the villagers together in a group chant.
"That's so sweet of you guys," Mimi sniffled happily. "We're going to give this our all! You can count on us! Ready to kick some monster butt, Lillymon?"
"I thought you'd never ask! You betcha!" Lillymon winked to her partner.
Siege at the Marsupial Fertile Village/Eastern District
With the massive smoke cloud created from Gyrogmon's last attack clearing up, the giant waited for the opportunity to check the damage he created. He wanted to be sure that he had completely obliterated War Greymon. He looked across to catch glimpse of the Digi-Destined and smiled.
"You guys! He's coming this way!" Joe panicked.
"You children stay back! Altur Kabuterimon and I will handle this!" Andromon initiated himself into combat mode.
"No! I refuse to believe War Greymon has perished!" Tai growled.
Just as Gyrogmon marched across the demolished debris, he felt a strong ki coming from out of the cleared up smoke cloud. It was a familiar ki. The Digi-Destined happily sighed in relief once their beloved War Greymon was finally exposed for all to see. The last attack that was used against him destroyed every trace of land he was standing on. This excluded a tiny concrete slate he was standing on. War Greymon uncovered himself to reveal that most of his armor was completely shattered. A small smirk crossed War Greymon underneath his facemask.
Indeed, War Greymon has shown his resiliency by surviving the head-on explosion blast. The warlord was surprised by the digimon's ability to survive his most devastating attack.
"No. I'm not done just yet." War Greymon smirked while uncrossing his arms.
"ARGH! WHY YOU!" Gyrogmon roared out as he threw his arm across.
While throwing out his arm across, it stretched out like rubber and attempted to grab War Greymon. The mega took advantage of Gyrogmon's arm and quickly ran across the 'arm' as if it were a leading trail. He ran up quickly so fast that he used enough leverage to leap into the air. Collecting enough energy with one hand, he tosses across a small orange sphere.
"Terra Force!"
The blast struck Gyrogmon across the face and sent him tumbling down like a giant lumber. War Greymon was relieved and flew across to gather more energy to implement another attack. Unfortunately, much to his surprise, Gyrogmon turned upward and shot out two beams out of his eyes. They aimed directly for War Greymon and struck him across his left arm. The mega was hit and sent plummeting towards the ground. Gyrogmon sat up, stretched out his right arm and catches War Greymon into a tight grip. The warrior found himself in a precautious situation and screamed out in pain with the grip tightening on him.
(End theme)
"No! He has him! War Greymon!" Tai exclaimed.
"Altur Kabuterimon! It's time! Let's move out!" Andromon leaped off the building and took flight across the skylines.
"You be careful, Altur Kabuterimon! We're counting on you and Andromon to aid War Greymon!" Izzy told his beetle partner.
"We got it! Andromon! Lead the way, my friend!" the ultimate-level beetle bellowed out.
"Tai! Don't fret! They're going to get War Greymon out of this mess!" Sora attempted to assure the leader.
"Well, they had better hurry then! I don't think War Greymon is going to last much longer if Gyrogmon continues to put the tight squeeze on him!"
"…If only there was anything I can do to offer my help…" Leomon strained as he struggled to stand up.
"No, you have to lie down, Leomon… You're still badly hurt!" Izzy reminded the brave warrior.
"It… doesn't matter to me… Andromon and Altur Kabuterimon will need help… War Greymon… Hang in there… Help is on the way…"
"Everybody is begging to lend their support. Oh if only Patamon and Gatomon were still in this fight," Kari thought.
However, just then, the Child of Light felt an overwhelming warmth suddenly overtaking her. Nobody else has noticed it yet but the same light was slowly beginning to take over Kari's body. That same 'being' would reemerge to make her presence felt.
"It's that same light as before… But why now? What can it do to save War Greymon?"
The evil warlord was quickly tightening his grip on War Greymon, which forced the warrior to utter a horrifying scream that made everyone around the area wince. His blood-curling screams were enough to frighten the children yet infuriate the other digimon. They raced over to save their comrade from meeting his certain end at the 'hands' of Gyrogmon.
War Greymon has found himself in an unpredictable situation with the fully-grown Gyrogmon. Just when that new power had given War Greymon the edge he needed, he now is close to meeting his end. Can Andromon and Altur Kabuterimon race over in time to save their comrade? Can Mimi and Lillymon make there to lend their support? How will Leomon recover to lend War Greymon the helping hand he needs? Somehow, all of this lies in the hands of the glowing light that possessed Kari… Is she the difference the heroes need to defeat the Gyrog overlord?
