Grademon and Reapmon kept moving through the trees, but were getting closer and closer to the mountain that will make it next to impossible to track them down.

"We're almost at the meeting point." Reapmon said.

"Good, we're almost home free." Grademon said, but they both sensed something coming from behind them. They looked back and saw T.K. and Angemon coming up to them.

"We finally caught up to you." T.K. said.

"This is your last chance to return our friends." Angemon said as Reapmon held it behind him.

"Go ahead and try to take them. I see that you're all alone this time." Reapmon said. He failed to notice that Matt rode on Metalgarurumon and came up behind him as he snatched the coffin.

"I got it!" Matt said.

"This is for you." Garurumon said as he launched a couple missiles and froze the area around Grademon and Reapmon and the two of them tried to make their getaway with Angemon carrying it.

"Those punks." Grademon said as they both tried to break their way out of the ice. Once they were, they both raced off after them.

"Angemon, what are you waiting for? Get them out." T.K. said.

"I'm trying, but the coffin won't open." Angemon said as he tried to open the coffin, but it was sealed shut, wouldn't budge.

"Get ready." Matt said. They looked ahead to see Tai and Wargreymon as Wargreymon was preparing his attack.

"Way to go guys, but watch out. They're right behind you." Tai warned them as they saw Reapmon coming at them fast.

"Get back here!" Reapmon said as he reached out for them.

"Now!" Tai shouted.

"Terra Force."

Wargreymon launched the ball of energy and Reapmon thought he was in trouble, but he wasn't going down that easily. Angemon moved out of the way, but Reapmon grabbed on the back leg of Metalgarurumon. The attack landed and all three got caught in the explosion.

"Oh no!" Wargreymon said as Angemon landed down next to him.

"Matt, Metalgarurumon!" T.K. shouted. They thought they were hurt, but saw all three of them fly through the smoke and went over a cliff and fell into a trench and lost sight of them. "We've got to get down there and help them."

"We've got our own problems." Tai said as they looked up to see Grademon was still coming at them.

"Hold it!" Grademon shouted as he stopped just a few yards away. "It's the end of the line for you. Give me back that coffin or else."

"Just try and take it." Wargreymon challenged as they were getting ready to fight, but then someone else appeared behind them. They turned around to see this strange person shoved them all away from the coffin as it was thrown in the air.

"I'll take this." He said as he caught it with just one arm as he held it over his head.

"Who are you?" T.K. said.

"Tactimon!" Grademon said as he was astounded that the most powerful warrior of Hydroumon was here. "What are you doing here?"

"You were taking too long. Lord Hydroumon was becoming impatient." Tactimon said. "I see that Madleomon and Ravenhoodmon aren't here and I saw what just happened to Reapmon. You finish things here. I'll deliver this to the master." He took the coffin and just left.

"Come back!" T.K. shouted. They were about to go after him, but Grademon got ahead of them and cut them off.

"Not going to happen." Grademon said as he pulled out his twin swords.

"It's obvious he's not going to let us through." Wargreymon said.

"We're going to need teamwork. Listen, I have an idea." Tai said as they huddled together. Grademon was starting to wonder what they were thinking. They were done whispering to each other and Angemon and Wargreymon were ready to fight.

"If you're done sharing secrets, let's get this over with. Let's see how you're teamwork prevails." Grademon said. Wargreymon was the first to attack. Grademon held up his swords and blocked Wargreymon from attacking. He saw Angemon and T.K. flying at them, but instead of flying at him to fight, they flew over him. "What?" He said as the two separated.

"So long sucker." T.K. said as he waved goodbye and went after Tactimon.

"What was that?! Teamwork my foot you little twerps!" Grademon shouted out of irritation at Tai and Wargreymon.

"We don't have the time for the both of us to take you on. Ken was right, we're going one on one." Tai said. "Knowing Matt, he's taking down your friend down there as we speak."

"That is if he even survived the fall." Grademon said.

"He's stubborn like that. You're on your own and we can take care of you." Tai said.

"We'll see about that." Grademon said and went to attack. Wargreymon brought up his shield and managed to block his attacks.

"Cross Blade."

Grademon slashed at him at incredible speed in a cross style. It didn't seem like it did anything, but then Wargreymon felt the impact and was pushed back and his shield was cracked.

"That was so fast, like a scene from one of my favorite sword fight movie scenes. I didn't even see him do anything" Tai said.

"You haven't seen a thing yet." Grademon said.

…

Tactimon

Tactimon made it into an open field as he dived out of the forest and went the rest of the way on foot. He heard Angemon fly out of the trees and was heading right after them.

"You're not going anywhere!" T.K. shouted out.

"Hand of Faith."

Tactimmon turned around to a slid stop and dropped the coffin. He held up his arm and blocked the attack with his hand. Angemon landed across from them as T.K. jumped off.

"This is as far as you go." T.K. said.

"You don't really think you can defeat me? I'm more powerful than you could imagine." Tactimon said. "I don't know what happened between you and the Gates of the Dragon, but facing me alone is suicidal."

"Then let's see how powerful you are. I'm not leaving until I get my friends back." T.K. said.

"I see." Tactimon said and raised his hand to the sky as dark clouds started to form over them and lightning was roaring.

"Sword of Storms."

Energy started to gather together and formed a sword that was sealed in its sheath. The clouds cleared as it landed in his hand and held it towards them. Angemon took a position as he readied himself to attack.

"Come now." Tactimon said. Angemon was the first to attack. He flew in, but Tactimon blocked it with his sword and pushed him back so easily.

"He IS incredibly strong. This won't be easy. Angemon, we've got to go all out." T.K. said as Angemon pulled himself up.

"I'm ready." Angemon said.

….

Matt

Matt and the digimon managed to survive the fall and both of them were fighting Reapmon. Reapmon was firing energy bullets at them as Metalgarurumon flew around with Matt riding on him.

"Run all you want, it's useless." Reapmon said.

"Metal Wolf Claw."

Metalgarurumon fired his blast of cold energy at him that froze the area, but Reapmon was able to jump out of the way. Metalgarurumon circled around him.

"Now we've got him." Matt said, but he spoke too soon. Metalgarurumon tried to bite his left shoulder, but Reapmon held his dagger like weapon and was able to block them. He didn't even turn around to do it. "How did he do that?"

"Tons of hard training. You don't have a chance against me." Reapmon said as he did a 180 and slammed his foot in Metalgarurumon's stomach and caused the two of them to slide against the ground.

"Matt, are you okay?" Metalgarurumon said as they tried to stand.

"You won't be when I get through with you. I was born to reap lives and you two happen to be next on my list." Reapmon said. He held up his gun and got ready to fire.

…..

T.K.

"This should be interesting." Tactimon said. T.K. had Angemon become Magnaangemon a little while ago. Magnaangemon pulled out his sword and Tactimon held up his as he got ready to do battle.

"Let us duel." Magnaangemon said.

"Yes, let's." Tactimon said.

'We've got to beat this guy. We can't let him take Davis and Veemon away.' T.K. thought. 'We're the only chance he has.' The fifth warrior has arrived. The other two Gates of the Dragon are in battle with the other two digidestined. T.K. is forced to face this enemy on his own.
