It had taken them several hours to walk around the oddly shaped maze. However they weren't anywhere new. It had felt like they had gone around in circles. However they then came across some writing on the wall.
"T.K can you bring the torch over here?" Ken asked. T.K then walked over and looked up at the writing. Ken then looked over at T.K.
"Ken I don't like the look of this. Why does it say gas chamber?" T.K asked. Agumon then saw a red button.
"Guys we should get out of here. If one of our enemies touches this button then we are all dead." Agumon said. The tone of his voice gave the impression that he was worried. Ken then looked back to see the red button.
"Ken they said about putting people down here in the war. What if they meant their enemies?" Patamon asked. Ken then looked down at some of the lower bricks. They had small holes in them.
"These are the gas chambers that would be used as last lines of defence..." Ken said. He then looked at the map he had in his book.
"How close are we to an exit?" T.K asked. Ken then pointed at the map.
"We just have to walk another mile." Ken explained. The group then started walking apart from Patamon who was flying over T.K's shoulder.
They had finally made it to the ladder to get out. Once Ken had reached the top of the ladder he realised that the metal cover was too heavy to move with just one of them. Ken went back down to the bottom and explained that they couldn't get out. Suddenly gas started coming out of the holes. T.K felt something on his legs.
"Can you feel that?" T.K asked. Ken then put his hands near the ground. He then realised that gas was coming out of it.
"We need to get out of here otherwise we are dead. Everyone cover your mouths." Ken commanded. The group apart from Patamon covered their mouth. Patamon then saw T.K fall to the ground he then started to digivolve. Patamon went all light suddenly from the light Angemon emerged.
"Hand of fate!" Angemon shouted. A beam of red light went from his hand and shot the metal cover off. He then grabbed Agumon, T.K and Ken. He then flew out of the man hole. Angemon then put the other three on the ground and then covered the man hole. Ken then looked around to see that there was a lot of country side.
"Angemon you saved us." T.K said trying to thank his Digimon.
"Where are we anyway?" Agumon asked. He looked unbelievably confused.
"This is supposedly where the jails are but I can't see any..." Ken said. He looked worried. T.K then looked at his watch.
"Well we're still in the same second..." T.K confirmed. Angemon then flew up in the air to see if there was anything around.
"Wow look who it is..." A voice said from behind them, the voice sounded familiar.
"Where did the jail go? I can explain that to you." Another voice said. Angemon flew down with a smile with his face. Ken, T.K and Agumon turned round to see that Gomamon and Izzy standing there.
"Izzy how did you escape?" T.K asked. Izzy then pointed at the sea.
"Well with Gomamon we summoned the fishes to help us out, then he weirdly Digivolved into Ikkakumon. I came to the conclusion that Joe is nearby." Izzy said to the rest of the group.
"I saw him over there he was with Gatomon." Angemon said. He then pointed his staff in a direction. The entire group then ran that way. Angemon followed them through the sky.
After they had run up a massive hill they looked down to see Joe and Gatomon surrounded by an army of Megadramon. Gatomon looked in pain. Agumon then tried to do a pepper breath having missing the Megadramon. Half of them looked up and flew up to attack the group. Angemon started to fight them. However it was five versus one. Gomamon then ran down the hill and stood next to Joe.
"Gomamon what are you doing here?" Joe asked. Looking down at his Digimon, Gomamon looked up at him.
"Let me digivolve Joe I can help them out." Gomamon stated. Joe then nodded and Gomamon started to digivolve. Ikkakumon then spawned after the Digi-evolution had happened.
"Harpoon torpedo!" Ikkakumon shouted. As he fired them against every enemy around him.
The fight went on for about half an hour however the Megadramon soon gave up. After they had all been defeated they then disappeared into the air. The group then all got together. Angemon and Ikkakumon then reverted back to their rookie forms. However they didn't feel like they lost any energy. Izzy then looked out to the sea they were near. The waves weren't moving, they were just repeating themselves. The group then all then found a building to hide in and devised a plan.
"I overheard some of the henchmen while I was stuck in the jail. They said that Kari and Tai had tried to escape from Australia. While Matt was in England, I however don't know where Mimi and Sora are being held." Izzy said as they sat down in the house.
"I know Davis is being held by a Digimon named Metaletemon. I think I overheard them say in France..." Ken said. Izzy looked back at him.
"When we were walking around we heard that Mimi was being held in Germany and that Sora was somewhere in France too." Joe added. Gomamon then looked up at him.
"Hang on how are suppose to get there?" Gomamon asked. Everyone then stared at Gomamon as if he was an idiot.
"Well considering there aren't any waves and that we seem to be full of unlimited energy then..." Izzy started to explain. Gomamon butted in however.
"Ok I see get the water Digimon to seem everywhere." Gomamon said. Gatomon then just laughed.
"You're so funny sometimes Gomamon." Gatomon said. Gomamon then pushed her into Patamon. The two didn't move for a while. Gatomon then started blushing.
"Ok then... When we tell this story to everyone else we don't mention that part." T.K sarcastically added. Izzy then looked up at T.K.
"We still need to know where Cody and Yolei are. From the looks of it the Digimon that we've fought look weaker than usual." Izzy stated. T.K then looked up the hill to see that there was someone looking down at them. He then ran down the hill and looked at them some more. He was wearing a green face scarf and green robes. He had a red scarf around his neck. T.K then remembered he had met him briefly at the rebel base. He was supposed to be one of the British Digi-destined but he never found his digimon.
"Oh hey it's you again... I've forgotten your name." T.K said as he attempted to greet the so called British Digi-destined. However he didn't give off a friendly impression as he had a spear and a sword on his person.
"You can call me Ian. However I am not here to meet any of you. Supposedly my Digimon is supposed to appear here." Ian rudely said. Gomamon looked up at him as if he had said something that had disrespected him.
"You're lucky to even have a Digimon if the poor soul appears!" Gomamon shouted out at Ian.
"What do you mean?" Ian asked as he crossed his arms and looked over at Gomamon.
"Simple you're a rude person who doesn't deserve a Digimon!" Gomamon shouted at Ian.
"You'd be like this if you had lost all of your friends in Britain!" Ian quickly shouted back. He then closed his eyes and then looked away from the group.
"You two might as well stop your bickering!" A voice commanded from behind them. It had a rare metallic sound to it and Izzy remembered the voice very well. The group then all looked over to see one of the four dark masters standing there. It was Machinedramon he finally came to attack them. He however didn't give off the same scary effect he did the first time the Dig destined fought him. Some of the metal on his kneecap had also been broken off.
"Who the heck is that?" Ian asked in a very loud tone. T.K then looked over to Izzy and smirked.
"I'm assuming you have a plan?" Izzy asked. He wasn't sure why T.K was smirking like he was.
"Patamon I think it's time Digivolve!" T.K shouted. Patamon just nodded. He started to Digivolve when some Megadramon suddenly charged in. Gomamon then started to digivolve. Ian pulled out his sword and tried to hit some of the digimon. However he wasn't doing a great job at it. Ken and Izzy ran to cover with Gatomon. Joe remained with his digimon. Suddenly both of the digimon had finished their Digi-evolution. Angemon and Ikkakumon then started launching their attacks. Agumon was firing some attacks but he wasn't doing enough damage.
"Joe we're never going to kill him at this rate! I wonder if we should try and take them to the next stage?" T.K quickly asked Joe as he jumped out the way of one of the many explosions that were going off.
"Will they be strong enough?" Joe questioned. T.K then pointed to a scratch on Machinedramon armour. Joe then saw it.
"Keep stalling soon the missiles will fall." Machinedramon whispered to all of his troops as he passed by.
"I think he's already been damaged, maybe you could break it with Zudomon's hammer?" T.K asked. Joe then nodded. Suddenly Angemon and Ikkakumon started to digivolve into their next forms. Agumon had already run away to protect Izzy and Ken. Ian was knocked out and was lying on the battlefield. The two Digimon Digivolved into their next forms MagnaAngemon and Zudomon, they felt stronger then they have ever felt in those forms.
"Let's finish this Zudomon." MagnaAngemon commanded. Zudomon then launched his hammer at Machinedramon's leg which had the hole in. When it hit it resulted in it getting bigger. However Machinedramon had fired hundreds of missiles at the two ultimate Digimon.
"Gate of Destiny." MagnaAngemon said. He then made a circle shape with his sabre and the gate formed. All of the missiles went flying into it. Machinedramon then started to fall towards it. Izzy then noticed something about the Machinedramon. He wasn't the same one, otherwise he would've remember Agumon defeating him. Machinedramon got sucked into the gate it then closed after him.
The fight had finally finished and all of the stray Digimon who had worked for Machinedramon had disappeared. Izzy had everyone's attention.
"I don't think we're facing the same Digimon. That one didn't know who any of us were. Granted there are only several of us. We're the ones who killed him. You'd think he'd want revenge or something." Izzy said. T.K then crossed his arms.
"So what are you saying these are different Digimon?" T.K asked. Izzy then nodded. They suddenly all heard a friendly voice behind them.
"Well done you worked it out for yourselves." The voice said. Gatomon turned round and suddenly had the happiest expression imaginable on her face. They all turned round and saw Wizardmon standing next to them.
"What are you doing here?" Gatomon asked. He then pointed at Ian.
"Everyone has a Digimon in some way shape or form. And since the world has unlimited energy I can just bring myself back in." Wizardmon said. He then became opaque again; the light wasn't passing through him now. Gatomon hugged him.
"I've missed you so much." Gatomon said. Tears dropped from her eyes. MagnaAngemon then changed back to his Patamon form and Zudomon changed back into Gomamon.
"Nice to meet you Ian I am your Digimon." Wizardmon said as he put his hand out to shake. Ian then just hugged him.
"He's Wizardmon. We thought he died ages ago. Looks like the world needed to wrong for him to re-arrive." Agumon said. He then chuckled at the end of his sentence. Gatomon looked like she was in love with him. Patamon then tried to fly off, until T.K grabbed him.
"Where do you think you're going?" T.K asked, he then noticed Patamon looked depressed. He then looked over to Gatomon and Wizardmon.
"I need to think." Patamon said. He sounded upset. T.K then just hugged him. Gomamon then looked up at Patamon.
"Don't worry bud I'll always be here if you need to talk to someone." Gomamon said. Patamon however just started looking at Gatomon. He had now wished he told her ages ago how he felt.
"Ian do you want to come with us, we're heading to Britain next and we thought you'd want to be involved." Izzy said. Ian then looked at Wizardmon and nodded. Gatomon then jumped in the air with joy. Ken walked over to T.K.
"I think we've been lucky with this one. Are they all that strong?" Ken asked. T.K then nodded. He then remembered the time when Kari had gotten ill in the Digiworld and Machinedramon had attacked.
"When we fought him the first time he was much stronger and Kari was ill." T.K said. Ken looked in shock. Izzy then put his arms in the air.
"Here is the route we are going to take. From here we're going to swim over to Britain and free them, and then we'll head to Europe. Then we will head to Australia and then we'll head home and defeat Puppetmon." Izzy said. The team then prepared themselves. This was going to be the hardest mission they had ever been on.
"I don't know why but I feel that something is wrong here." T.K said. Izzy started shaking his head.
"The dark master you just beaten wasn't the real one. I'm afraid we need to leave now. Once the other countries are secure we will be able to come back here. However we'll need an army for here because of the size of it. Out of all the digimon we have only two of them can Digivolve to the next stage." Wizardmon started to explain he then looked at Joe and nodded.
"Gomamon I reckon you should Digivolve. I suppose we're off to Britain then." Joe said. Gomamon then sighed and Digivolved twice. He was now Zudomon. They all sat on his back and then started to move to their next destination. Izzy then looked back, the place they had just been had gone all dark. Suddenly it looked like it was raining. However when the rain landed it triggered an explosion, Izzy then patted T.K's shoulder.
"You were right they were going to destroy us. That one we thought was a fake." Izzy said. Ken then looked back at all of the destruction.
"I hope everywhere isn't like this." Ken said. He then sat down and looked out to see.
"Everywhere is going to be destroyed in one way shape or form. We'll just have to deal with it when we get there." T.K said. Izzy then looked back at T.K.
"How did you escape your jail cell?" Izzy asked. T.K then looked back at Agumon and then looked back.
"We never went in one. We're on our way to one when Agumon shot something in the cage. I don't know how but we fell out and landed in China." T.K said. Agumon then nodded.
"The same thing happened to me and Gatomon. However it was more scratching out of it. We then landed in Canada. So you know we've walked our fair distance." Joe added in. Izzy then looked over at Ian. He seemed new to this, maybe it was too much to bring him, but it had to be safer then remaining where they were. Everywhere they had fought that fake Machinedramon had been blown up.
"The other four dark masters are going to learn that we escaped." Izzy said. Ken then just shook his head.
"Don't worry we'll find everyone Izzy. We're just going to have to wait a while. I mean last time we fought Machinedramon he was killed by WarGreymon but at the moment all we have is a little Agumon. Once we get Tai then we can attack him again." T.K explained. Izzy then nodded.
The team knew that the battle was going to take a while. They however were thankful that the waves had stopped because of the same second repeating. T.K then looked at his picture of Kari. He then smiled as he saw Patamon and Gatomon cuddled up and then he looked into the distance. The team then started preparing themselves for their storm on Great Britain.
