To get their minds on what Takato and Guilmon told them, Rika, Renamon, Impmon and BlackRenamon went for a small walk in the forest.
"So… they told you… about Satoru and BlackGuilmon?" Impmon asked, breaking the silence and making Renamon nod her head in reply, still saddened That Takato and Guilmon had lost and suffered so much.
Wanting to change the subject, Renamon faced BlackRenamon and asked her. "So what is your backstory, sister?"
"With BlackGuilmon? Well, I did like him. A black Digimon wanting power, but then he saw me bond with Impmon and he no longer had any use for me and betrayed me." BlackRenamon replied.
"He betrayed you because of you and Impmon?" Rika asked.
"Yes. She was about to be slaughtered if Guilmon hadn't come to her rescue." Impmon replied.
"And what a shame that he didn't." Came a voice from the darkness, which made everyone turn around to see a young man, same age as Takato, with pale skin, long black hair and was wearing a long black overcoat and trousers.
He almost looked like Takato apart from his red eyes.
And next to him was a Digimon that looked almost like Guilmon, but his skin was black, red stripes covered his body, while blue armour covered his shoulders, as a helmet adorned on his head.
"You!" Impmon and BlackRenamon gasped in alarm.
"Satoru and BlackGuilmon!" Rika and Renamon gasped, remembering what Takato and Guilmon told them.
"It's been a long time, BlackRenamon." Satoru said, before commenting with a dark smirk. "Still hanging around that purple imp I see."
Getting defensive, Impmon stood before BlackRenamon before he demanded. "Why're you here?"
"To finish some old business." Satoru replied, making BlackRenamon snarl. "You came to finish me off don't you!?"
"Yes. If it weren't for my brother, you would never see the light of day again." BlackGuilmon replied, before stating. "He saved you that time but I am more powerful than I was then."
"Well so have Takato and Guilmon!" Rika shouted, making the evil pair turn to Rika and Renamon.
Curious, Satou asked. "And who are you two?"
"Takato and Guilmon trained us so we could get strong too!" Renamon replied, making BlackGuilmon scoff and say in reply. "Tch. They trained you two weaklings?"
"My sister's stronger than you think!" BlackRenamon shouted, sticking up for her.
"She took down Cyberdramon without too much trouble at all!" She added.
"So… she's your sister?" BlackGuilmon asked, crossing his arms, before saying. "Heh. I take it she's older because of your 'body languages'."
He was referring to the breast and butt size of the two Renamon, making the two look at each other and then back to their enemies.
"Well you two are the enemies of Takato and Guilmon!" Rika said, pointing at Satoru, making her say in a serious tone. "So any enemy of our masters, is an enemy of ours!"
"And you think you two can beat us?" Asked Satoru, causing Rika to respond as she drew out a Blue Card unknowingly, before she called out. "We do! Digi Modify!"
Renamon felt a surge of power enter her as she began to glow as her skin shredded off her and her Data began to alter and reshape her.
"Renamon digivolve to..." She called out as a cocoon shape covered her form, before breaking open to show Renamon had changed.
She was now on four legs, had nine tails coming out from her tailbone area, while the symbol of Ying and Yang appeared on the vixen's forehead.
And with her new form, Of course her butt and breasts increased in size.
"Kyubimon!" The Digimon announced, standing proudly before her Tamer, who was amazed that Renamon had Digivolved.
"What the...? Renamon, you changed!" Rika called in surprise as Kyubimon looked at her new appearance in surprise as well.
"You Digivolved which is useful when up against someone like him." BlackRenamon told her sister, before turning back to the evil duo.
"Well, at least you two can Digivolve" Satoru commented.
"She's not the only one!" Impmon said back, Digivolving into Beelzemon, while BlackRenamon Digivolved to a Kyubimon look alike, only her fur was a light shade of purple.
"Youkomon!" She announced after Digivolving.
"Tch. Fine. You three will make perfect practice dummies." Satoru just replied, unimpressed, before he withdrew his D-Power, which was completely black, with dark red outlines.
"BlackGuilmon, Digimodify!" Satoru yelled, slashing a Card in his Digivice, causing it to glow with dark energy that filled BlackGuilmon.
"BlackGuilmon Digivolve to..." BlackGuilmon called as his skin shredded showing his corrupted Data as he then changed.
His form taking on a huge dragon-like creature that had an even stronger body and greater power.
"BlackGrowlmon!" He roared.
"Oh great. He can digivolve too." Beelzemon said, before withdrawing his shotguns and saying. "Still, he is only a Champion and it's three against one, we can take him."
"I hope you're right." Youkomon replied, knowing that such a Digimon was not to be underestimated.
"If he's planning to harm our Masters, then he will pay for what he's done to his family!" Kyubimon just replied, before they all charged, ready to take on BlackGrowlmon.
-Meanwhile, back at the summit-
Both Takato and Guilmon felt the presence of evil and turned to the direction of the forest where the fighting was, making Guilmon say in worry. "Oh no! Don't tell me it's them!"
"It's them alright. They appeared, and Rika and the others are in trouble. Guilmon, you better Digivolve and we gotta go after them! Digimodify! Digivolution activate!" Takato called as he slashed his card through his D-Power.
"Guilmon Digivolve to..." Guilmon called as his skin ripped off showing his Data before the same cocoon covered him, taking up a new form, which then disappeared, showing a red dragon-like dinosaur with white hair and his more muscular body as his scarf flapped behind him.
"Growlmon!" The new Guilmon form announced in a strong tone of voice.
With the Digivolution complete, Takato leapt onto Growlmon's shoulder, before saying. "Let's hurry before it gets worse."
-Back to the battle-
"Double Impact!" Beelzemon yelled out, firing two blasts of energy from his guns at BlackGrowlmon who leapt out of the way and then charged at the Mega Level Digimon.
"Plasma Blade!" BlackGrowlmon roared, using his elbow blades that were then encased in plasma and then struck at Beelzemon who managed to avoid the slash attack, in which BlackGrowlmon slashed a tree where Beelzemon was standing, making it fall to the ground.
"Damn. He's even more stronger than last time!" Beelzemon commented.
"Dragon Wheel!" Kyubimon and Youkomon called out, before the duo rolled around to each form a wheel of fire before a dragon like flame came out of them towards BlackGrowlmon.
However, BlackGrowlmon took the hit, but was unharmed, much to the shock of Rika, Beelzemon, Kyubimon and Youkomon.
"It didn't work?" Kyubimon asked in alarm.
"Nice trick. Now try this. Exhaust Flame!" BlackGrowlmon roared and shot out a powerful blaze from his mouth making both Champions duck away.
Seeing that BlackGrowlmon was proving more trouble than anticipated, Beelzemon called out. "Let's try plan two. Ambush him with everything we got!"
"Right" Kyubimon and Youkomon replied, lifting their nine tails, each of which were covered in small fires on their tips.
"Fox Tail Inferno!" Kyubimon called.
"Jaenryū!" Youkomon called.
"Rapid Double Fire!" Beelzemon called
The three all fired their attacks at BlackGrowlmon which hit him and they kept firing.
"Keep firing you three!" Rika called out in a commanding tone, encouraging Kyubimon and her allies to continue.
However, she saw Satoru looking at the battle with a deadly glance, worrying her and making the redhead wonder what Satoru was planning.
Soon, a cloud of dust came from where BlackGrowlmon once stood, making Youkomon ask. "Did... did we do it? Did we win?"
"Not quite" Satoru replied as he smiled wickedly.
All of them were alarmed as BlackGrowlmon stood in place, arms crossed and pretending to yawn.
"What was that? A firework display?" BlackGrowlmon mocked.
"Nothing? Nothing seem to be working on him?" Beelzemon gasped.
"I guess it's my turn now." Satoru said, before he then slashed another Card through his D-Power, making BlackGrowlmon power up as he then shot forth and slammed his claw into Beelzemon's stomach, making him gasp out in pain.
"Beelzemon!" Youkomon screamed as Beelzemon was thrown back and De-Digivolved back to Impmon.
"Youkomon, I... I'm sorry..." Impmon managed to say, before he fell onto the ground and into unconsciousness.
Shocked at his power, Rika asked. "How?"
"De-Digivolution Card." Satoru said to Rika, before he explained. "It makes any Digimon De-Digivolve to their Rookie stage immediately."
"Time to wrap this little game up. Black Exhaust Flame!" BlackGrowlmon then yelled as he unleashed an even larger flame from his maw, striking Youkomon and Kyubimon, making them collapse to the ground.
Kyubimon, still standing looked to see Youkomon De-Digivolve back to BlackRenamon and lose consciousness too.
"No... little sister!" Kyubimon called in concern, before looking to see BlackGrowlmon appear in front of her.
"I'll start with you." BlackGrowlmon told Kyubimon in a dark tone, ready to launch his Dark Plasmus Blade and finish her off.
"NO!" Rika cried out, fearing of losing her best friend.
"Dragon Slash!" A deep voice suddenly roared, before BlackGrowlmon was thrown back by the elbow blade of Growlmon's appearance.
Kyubimon was relieved to see Growlmon came to her rescue as Takato stood beside Rika.
"Master, you came!" Rika called, relieved to see her Master.
"Just glad you all are safe for now." Takato replied before turning to his brother
"Satoru!" He yelled.
"Takato." Satoru said darkly, annoyed to see his brother, while BlackGrowlmon rose up to see Growlmon in front of him.
"BlackGrowlmon!" Growlmon said in an aggressive tone.
"Growlmon." BlackGrowlmon snarled, before he roared. "Black Exhaust Flame!"
"Pyro Blaster!"
Both attacks collided and exploded in between them.
Just as the two champions are about to fight…
"BlackGrowlmon, enough. We're leaving for now" Satoru called out.
With this, BlackGrowlmon De-Digivolved back to BlackGuilmon, leaving both Takato and Growlmon confused.
"What's the deal? Are you running away?" Takato demanded.
"We will settle this soon. But first, let me get you in on some detail. Ever heard of the D-Reaper?" Asked Satoru.
"The D-Reaper?" Rika asked back, confused, while Takato and Growlmon were both shocked to hear Satoru was planning something with such a dangerous force.
"You mean that dangerous red blob of power which was used to destroy life and data?" Takato snarled.
"Exactly, and that is where we get our ultimate power from." BlackGuilmon replied darkly, causing Growlmon to snarl and yell out. "NO. We won't let you!"
"It will be released and because of the gateway between Human World and Digital World." Satoru said. "And when BlackGuilmon absorbs it, he'll become ChaosGallantmon, the ultimate Digimon. Soon we have all and nobody will stand in our way!"
"We will not let you!" Takato said back in a serious tone, making Satoru just smirk.
"We will meet again my brother. I will spare your friends for now and I bid you farewell." Satoru said as BlackGuilmon fired a Pyro Grenade directly beneath him, creating a blast that consumed the pair.
And as the smoke and debris cleared, they were gone.
"Come back here!" Kyubimon called out, only for Growlmon to stop her.
"It's no good. They're gone but they will be back." Said Growlmon. "For now, we have to warn everyone about the D-Reaper."
"I agree." Takato replied, nodding, before he placed BlackRenamon on Kyubimon's back, while Growlmon picked up Impmon.
"We tell you more about the D-Reaper when we get back to the others." Takato then said.
"I hate it when you're right." Rika replied, before she climbed on Kyubimon's back as they then walked back to the summit.
But as they headed back, both Rika and Kyubimon were still worried about Takato and Growlmon, both had glares on their faces.
