That night came quickly. With it came many mysteries.
What were they going to do now? Should they find Warmon? Or go after Darklordmon? What were they going to do about Orbmon?
They decided that they should do what Warmon told them. Warmon said that Orbmon wanted to be destroyed if he became under the control of Darklordmon. They voted that they would tough it out and defeat him.
They took shifts staying awake. Everyone kept their heads above the ground as they slept. They had learned from their past experiences. Jason and Velocimon took the first and last shifts. Morning came soon enough. Everyone was well rested.
They walked down the path for about an hour before trouble fell upon them. A dark cloud came up the path towards them. A familiar evil laugh came from the cloud. It formed into Orbmon. "I've got you know," he said. He lifted his hand and Jason was lifted into the air. "Darklordmon would like to see you," he said.
Jason knew that if Darklordmon got his crest and digivice, he would destroy them. He quickly threw them to Velocimon before he was sealed in a black orb.
Orbmon sent the black orb off behind him. "Now to take care of the rest of you," he said as he shot small black orbs at the rest of them. They had little time to react.
"Come on guys. Time to digivolve." Gre said. The digidestined nodded.
Their digimon took their ultimate forms. Everyone except Catmon. Orbmon created around their hands and feet's, except for Megaseadramon, which he just created orbs along his body, that prevented them from moving.
Kyo looked at Kyo. "We've got to win, Catmon. It's time to digivolve. We've got to stop him!" he said. His crest began to glow.
"Catmon digivolve to Panthermon." The orbs broke around Panthermon. Panthermon appeared to be a panther standing on his hind legs.
Velocimon stood off by himself, not even noticing that there was a battle taking place. He held Jason's crest and digivice in his claws. He was in shock.
But the battle continued.
"Purr of Harmony." A gentle purr came from Panthermon.
Orbmon howled in pain as everyone was soothed by the gentle purr. The digidestined watched as a black sphere emerged from Orbmon.
"Panther Punch!" Panthermon punched into the air towards the black sphere and an energy blast in the shape of a panther's head destroyed it.
Orbmon had feinted. All of the digimon reverted back to their rookie forms.
Velocimon was still in shock. Gre went over to him. "Don't worry, Velocimon. We'll find him and he's going to be okay. You'll see," gre told Velocimon to comfort him. It was going to be a very long day.
