"How's that wound Ken?" Kari said. Ken moved his shoulder. It hurt, but it didn't hurt so badly.
"I think I'll be fine." Ken said. The digidestine were about to head home, but they heard Gennai got a message. Gennai opened it up and they saw his eyes widened.
"Gennai, what's wrong now?" Yolei said.
"I just got some news about Davis. Apparently he freed a dangerous digimon named Splashmon and destroyed a castle with the king inside." Gennai said.
"He did what?" T.K. said.
"Why would he do that?" Ross said.
"I'm not sure. Apparently someone also saw him with two other digimon." Gennai said. "This doesn't seem good. He must be gathering new forces for Hydroumon."
"We've got to go after him." T.K. said.
"No T.K., that won't do any good. You'll be walking around blind." Gennai said. "He was last spotted hours ago and no one knows where he's going. You'll just have to wait until he makes his next move." T.K. hated waiting around, but he had a point. Without knowing where Davis was going, there was no way to go after him.

Davis
Davis, with the two new members of his team, were out in the mountains to obtain the third and final member, Blastmon.
"What do you know about this Blastmon?" Splashmon said.
"Don't you do any talking to your friends, if you have any?" Lotosmon said.
"I've been locked up for years and I never got any visitors, flower princess." Splashmon said. Each passing second, he was liking her less and less.
"Anyway, he's strong and powerful." Lotosmon said. "He's locked up in a cell in a prison that is in these mountains. The prison is abandoned so we shouldn't encounter much resistance."
"If it's abandon, how could he have hold up after so long?" Splashmon said.
"That just shows how strong and resilient he is." Davis said. "I heard that he gets some of his power from sunlight so he's probably locked up in a dark room."
"I bet he's going crazy wanting to be free. Once he gets it, I doubt he'll be easy to reason with. Then again, what do you expect from someone who is made entirely out of rocks." Lotosmon said.
"There it is." Veemon said as they came across a stone building embedded into the mountain. They went to the front door and got it open easily. When they looked inside, the place was dusty and a wreck.
"Yuck, this place needs a major make over." Lotosmon said.
"What were you expecting? The place is abandoned. Did you think there would be fresh pain and lemon scent in the air?" Splashmon said.
"Quit your pointless arguing you two. Let's go find Blastmon." Davis said.
"I do detect a scent. It's just down this hall." Lotosmon said.
"How about that, she's good for something." Splashmon said as he took the lead. The others began to follow, but Lotosmon grabbed Davis and Veemon and took them down a different hall.
"What are you doing?" Davis said.
"He's actually down this way." Lotosmon said.
"Why did you lie?" Veemon said.
"I just wanted to get away from Splashmon. I say we're better off without him." Lotosmon said. Meanwhile, Blastmon was deep in this prison. He was down on his knees in a dark room with his hands and tail chained to the walls.
"How long have I been here?" Blastmon asked himself. "I've had no food, no water, no light for my crystals to shine. I want out of here." Splashmon was still on his own. He hadn't even noticed the others were gone.
"Hey Lotosmon, how far is this guy?" Splashmon said, but didn't get an answer. "Did you hear me?" When he turned around, he got his answer on why she didn't answer. He knew their disappearance had to have been her doing. "I hate that woman." Lotosmon led Davis and Veemon to a large door.
"Is this it?" Davis said.
"It is. Blastmon is on the other side of that door." Lotosmon said. Davis walked up to it and started to get it to open. Blastmon heard clicks coming from the door.
"Someone is here." Blastmon said. He saw the door open and Davis was on the other side. What he wanted was in front of him and he used every ounce of strength he had remaining to obtain it. "FREEDOM!" He shouted as he used all that strength and the chains actually broke. He raised his fist and pounded Davis as he was being flown through the wall.
"Davis!" Lotosmon shouted in concern. Blastmon laughed like a maniac as he broke through the walls himself. Splashmon was walking around trying to find them.
"Where are they?" Splashmon said. His answer came as Davis was blown through the wall and soon Blastmon came running through as well. "Never mind." Davis was sent flying outside. He landed on his feet and slid against the ground and blood dripping down his head. Blastmon came out and landed on the ground.
"Finally, I have sweet freedom!" Blastmon said.
"Not yet." Davis said as he was able to stand. "If you want freedom, you'll have to go through me first." Lotosmon and Splashmon ran to the whole they made. Veemon jumped out and made his way to Davis as he jumped on and over Blastmon.
"How can Davis still be standing after that?" Lotosmon said.
"He isn't like most humans." Splashmon said.
"I'm not giving up freedom. It took me days to build up the motivation and managed to break out of there. You're not locking me up again." Blastmon said. Davis pulled out his D3 and Veemon armored digivolved. Veemon's new form was like Raidramon, but had spokes instead of bolts with blue stripes over him and had saber teeth.
"Meet Ravedramon. I can tell just by looking at you that I'm going to need speed." Davis said as he climbed right on.
"You'll need more than that. Even being in this sunlight, I have power." Blastmon said as he was absorbing sunlight.
"Crystal Breath."
Blastmon blasted an energy beam from his mouth, but Ravedramon was as fast as lightning. That one attack was all it took for Blastmon to be exhausted.
"He's already out of breath?" Splashmon said.
"He was chained up. He must have used all the energy had to just get out of there." Lotosmon said.
"Diamond Hedgehog."
Blastmon curled up his entire body and started rolling around. It was heading right for Davis and Ravedramon, but they weren't moving. Blastmon just stopped a few inches as he uncurled himself. HE tried to stand, but was panting hard.
"Go for his legs." Davis said. He tossed his sword at his right leg and it was able to pierce through his metal. Davis jumped off and Ravedramon attacked.
"Saber Fang Thunder."
He shot thunder from his mouth that took the form of a fanged creature and hit down on Blastmon's leg and the electricity coursed through his body. Ravedramon ran up and jumped in the air.
"Destruction Strike."
He was covered in lightning and came down as he struck Ravedramon in the chest and struck Blastmon like a lightning bolt. Davis climbed over him and was standing over his face as he held his sword over his face.
"It's over Blastmon." Davis said.
"No. Please, just let me go. I just want to be free." Blastmon said. "I haven't eaten, drink, or even seen sunlight in days."
"You can have all that." Davis said. "I came here to bring you that freedom. You've been locked up for long enough, but you'll never be locked away again. I will be the key to you being locked up." It was as if Blastmon could see the light at last and the light was with Davis.

Hydroumon's Lair
Hydroumon was having a nice hot tea. He looked up to see Davis and Veemon came back and saw that be had Splashmon, Lotosmon, and Blastmon came with them.
"Davis, you're back. I take it these are your new team members." Hydroumon said.
"Yes. The water tiger, Splashmon. The queen of flowers, Lotosmon. The destructive diamond, Blastmon." Davis said.
"So this is our new home?" Lotosmon said.
"I like it. It's dark and depraving." Splashmon said.
"Is there any place I could get some food and water?" Blastmon asked. Hydroumon reached for his trey of rice and cookies. He placed his tea on it and slid it over to Blastmon. Blastmon picked it up and ate everything, even the bowls, cup, and the trey.
"So now that your team is complete, now what?" Splashmon said.
"From now on, we are team Dark Miracle and we have only one goal. To destroy the digidestine." Davis said.
