Jimmy: Where's Silver?

Gary: He's gone off with Lucario. They must be on the Rocket Frigate, trying to get it back.

Tai: Right. All we have to do is wait until they do. Hang in there, Sora.

Ash: Just hold on, May.

The gang watches the damaged Grani flying away and the Rocket Frigate leaving again. Inside the Rocket Frigate, the box was seen moving and then taken off. Out of the box is a young man and his Agumon. The young man has long brown hair, wears a white and red sleeveless jacket with a black shirt under it, and green pants. His Agumon is a little bigger than Tai's Agumon and wears red bracers on his paws. The young man is Marcus Damon of DATS.

Marcus: So this is the Rocket Frigate, huh? Agumon, do you know what time it is?

Agumon: Of course I do, boss. It's fighting time!

Marcus and Agumon ran down the hallway, fighting Evil Digimon like the Arcadiamon Rookie, Commandramon, and Goblimon. They did their usual attacks like Erase Sickles, M16 Assassin, and Goblin Strike, but Marcus and Agumon dodges their attacks. Agumon uses Claw Attack, while Marcus punches the Evil Digimon. Some data appears on his fist called Digisoul. After taking out the Evil Digimon, Marcus and Agumon continues running through the hallway until they hear something.

Marcus: Wait! I can hear something coming.

They snuck behind a wall and peek out from it.

Agumon: Someone's coming. We better hide.

They hid in their box. At that point, Silver, Totodile, Sneasel, Murkrow, Seadra, and Lucario ran past them. But Lucario stops and looks at the box.

Lucario: I believe someone is in there.

He closes his eyes and lifts his black ears. He has sensed Marcus and Agumon in that box.

Lucario: I knew it. There is someone in there.

He lifts the box and Marcus and Agumon realizes it and stood up. Silver and his Pokemon saw them too.

Marcus: So, you're looking for a fight?

Silver: What are you doing on my frigate?

Marcus and Silver were about to fight until Lucario stops them with aura glowing in his paw.

Lucario: Stop! They are not enemies.

He uses his aura again to look down the hallway and saw some Evil Digimon coming.

Lucario: I can sense Evil Digimon coming this way.

Marcus: We'll talk about this later. Right now, it's fighting time!

Silver, Lucario, Marcus, and their Pokemon and Digimon fought off the Evil Digimon like the Arcadiamon Rookie and Commandramon. Lucario uses Aura Sphere on the Arcadiamon, while Totodile uses Water Gun on the Commandramon. They took out the Evil Digimon and made their way to the central hallway with a metal door on the floor.

Agumon: Now where are we?

Totodile: We're in the central hallway of the frigate. There is a door in the floor here.

Silver: There are three doors down there. We need to activate three buttons to unlock them.

Marcus: Looks like we'll have to split into three groups. Me and Agumon will take the southeast hallway.

Silver: Me, Totodile, and Sneasel will take the northeast hallway.

Lucario: Then me, Murkrow, and Seadra will take the southwest hallway.

The gang splits up and went into three different hallways. Silver, Totodile, and Sneasel went up to the northeast hallway, where there are Mamemon and Vilemon coming out of a Dark Portal.

They pressed the button and the alarm went on.

Agumon pressed the button and the alarm went on.

Marcus: One of the doors have been open. Let's regroup with the others.

Marcus and Agumon left the southeast hallway. The whole gang regroups in the central hallway and saw that the door on the floor was opened.

Silver: The door is opened. Now we can get to the next room.

The gang went down the door and climbs down the ladder. They went through the door in the room and found themselves on a huge platform with five floating platforms, where they got ambushed by more Goblimon, Karatenmon, and Sealsdramon. The Goblimon, Karatenmon, and Sealsdramon did their usual attacks like Goblin Rush, Harmony Swords, and Death Behind, but the gang easily dodges their attacks. Sneasel uses Shadow Claw on the Goblimon, Murkrow uses Shadow Ball on the Karatenmon, while Seadra uses Dragon Pulse on the Sealsdramon. They took out the Evil Digimon and proceed to the next hallway, where it went dark.

Marcus: Why is it dark in here?

Lucario: There must be a button somewhere.

Lucario uses his aura to locate a button. He pressed it and the lights went back on, revealing more Commandramon, Flybeemon, and Machmon. The Commandramon, Flybeemon, and Machmon did their usual attacks like DCD Bombs, Lightning Sting, and Chaos Fire, but the gang easily dodges their attacks. Lucario uses Force Palm on the Commandramon, Totodile uses Ice Fang on the Flybeemon, while Agumon uses Claw Uppercut on the Machmon. They took out the Evil Digimon and proceed to the next hallway. They saw a ladder and a BomberNanimon in front of a blue metal door. The BomberNanimon threw his Free Throw Bomb at the gang, but they easily dodged his attack. Marcus punches the BomberNanimon, taking him out, and activating the alarm, opening the blue door to reveal another blue door.

Marcus: What is that door for?

Silver: There are six blue doors guarding the next room. We need to take out five more Evil Digimon to open them.

The gang climbs up the ladder and found an Arcadiamon Rookie. Lucario uses Metal Claw to take it out, activating the alarm. The gang then ran down to a room with two ladders and a Thundermon. The Thundermon uses Thunder Bomber on the gang, but they easily dodged his attack. Totodile uses Water Gun on the Thundermon, taking him out, and activating the alarm again.

Silver: That's the fifth door. Now we need to take out the last Evil Digimon and get outta here.

The gang ran all the way back to the ladder room and climbs up the upper ladder, where they found a sleeping Rhinomon. Seadra uses Hydro Pump on the Rhinomon, taking him out, and activating the alarm again.

Lucario: That must be the last one. Now let's get back down to the hallway with the blue doors.

The gang made it all the way back to the blue door hallway and saw that all the blue doors have opened. As they approached the huge metal door, Silver and Lucario hears Marcus' story.

Silver: So you're saying that both May and Sora are in there?

Marcus: Yes, and I'd hate to see the looks of Ash and Tai's faces when they found out that their loved ones are trophies.

Lucario: How do you know about Ash and Tai?

Marcus: Commander Sampson sent me on this mission. I heard alot about Ash and Tai. Let's get this over with.

They opened the door to see two cages with trophies in them. The left cage contains May, Torchic, and Skitty. The right cage contains Sora and Biyomon.

Lucario: There they are! Let's go rescue them!

Suddenly, the Shadow Bugs appeared, covered both trophies, landed into the ground, and formed into the Dark May and Dark Sora. With the Dark May is a red humanoid chicken Pokemon with beige hair-like feathers on her head and flames coming out of her arms. With the Dark Sora is a red humanoid eagle Digimon. They are Blaziken and Garudamon, the Ultimate Forms of Torchic and Biyomon.

Agumon has transformed into an orange dragon Digimon that looks like MetalGreymon, except he has a red metal chest plate, red and white metal wings, and a revolver-like cannon on his left arm.

Marcus: Me and RizeGreymon will take care of Garudamon.
