The following morning, the group got up and ate breakfast. Jason had done a lot of thinking. "The first thing we need to do is find Warmon. We're not just fighting a battle we're fighting a war." Jason said.
"Look no further," said a familiar voice from the bushes. It was Warmon. "You were separated for a reason. I had Orbmon send you to your specific crests. He was working as a double agent for us, but a problem occurred. Darklordmon discovered that Orbmon wasn't working for him and infected him with a black orb. He asked me, when he was still working for me, to destroy him if he was taken control of.
"However, even with the armor you may not be able to beat him. Your digimon partners need to digivolve further. They need to reach the ultimate level. You must use your crests to do it. I wish I could help you more, but Darklordmon has henchmen following me. I'll make them chase me so that you can get away. Good luck," And with that he ran off. The digidestined looked at each other.
"What did you think he meant by 'we must use the power of our crests'?" Kyo asked. Nobody answered because nobody knew. They all looked at each other for answers that none of them had.
Finally, Jason stood up. "Well, we can't find the answers just by sitting here," he said.
Everyone agreed. They all took one last look at their crests before putting them away. Jason led them down the forest path that the Kuwagamon had created the night before. After walking for a period of time, they came upon a temple. They walked up the stairs and into the main chamber. It was a circular room with eight statues. Each of their crests glowed towards one of the statues.
Each of the digidestined with their partner stood in front of a different statue. Jason stood at a statue of Wargreymon. Gre stood in front of Metalgarurumon. Rei-Pheonixmon. Leslie-Rosemon. Tao-Herculeskabuterimon. Lao-Plesiomon. Elie-Seraphimon. Kyo-Magnadramon. They then went to the center of the room and read the inscription on the floor.
"These are the heroes of the crests who helped this world in its time of peril."
The digidestined left the temple slightly more determined. They were ready to fight for Zeta. They were ready to find the power within themselves. They knew that they had a mission in front of them that they could only face as a team. They knew all of these things, but fear no longer touched them as it had before.
