Suddenly the strange devices that they had all gotten before coming to the digiworld began to glow, making Tai stop in his tracks. A huge black wormhole-looking thing opened up in the sky and bright, rainbow colored, light beams shot down from it, incasing each of their digimon mid-leap. Amaya gasped and pressed herself against Matt, unsure of what was going on. There was a bright light, making them all have to cover their eyes and Amaya could have sworn she heard several voices…
"Koromon digivolve to…Agumon!"
"Yokomon digivolve to…Biyomon"
"Motimon digivolve to…Tentomon!"
"Tsunomon digivolve to…Gabumon!"
"Tokomon digivolve to…Patamon!"
"Kitsunemon digivolve to… Alopexmon!"
"Bukamon digivolve to…Gomamon!"
"Tanemon digivolve to…Palmon!"
The light faded and they were able to open their eyes, but what they saw made them gasp. Where Kitsunemon and the others had been now stood several new, larger digimon; they still weren't as big as the giant bug, but they were bigger than what they had been before.
Where Tanemon once stood there was now plant-like creature which has light green skin with purple-tipped claws. She had a pink flower with a yellow center on her head. She had a small tail and small bumps lining her back.
Next was what used to be Tokomon, he was the only one who hadn't really changed in size. His underside was now a light cream color, while his back and head were orange. He had a short, stubby, orange tail and bat-like wings, which could possibly have been his ears, where his long string-like ear things had been before.
Then came what used to be Tsunomon, he was now a maroon-eyed yellow-skinned lizard- dog looking thing in a bluish-white pelt with navy blue markings and walked on his two back legs. A yellow horn protrudes at the top of his head and his belly is blue with unusual pink markings.
Next was the one that used to be Kitsunemon, she now looked like an artic fox with icy-blue fur. Her eyes were opal appeared to be changing as the different colors swirl around. The tips of her ears reached around 1 foot, 6 inches off the ground. She was about 3 feet long with her tail sticking out behind her. Her fur looked as if each hair were a small shard of ice. She had two gold metal rings around each of her ankles that were 1 inch wide and half and inch thick. She also had a gold collar that was around 3 inches wide and half an inch thick and had dark blue gemstones on it. She had 2 clear, icy blue icicle-like things that stuck out of her shoulders, pointing up and backwards. The inside of her ears, as well as her nose, were a darker blue. Her claws on her feet were clear as if they were made of ice.
Where Koromon used to be was now a smallish orange dinosaur with white claws on his fingers and toes and large, green eyes.
Then was what used to be Yokomon, she was now a pink bird with blue-tipped feathers on her head and a metal ring on one of her legs. At the tip of her wings and toes were three dark pink claws. She had a blue and pink feather that curled above her head. She had a dark pink beak and large, blue eyes.
What used to be Motimon was now a ladybug. He hae six legs in total, the front being long arms with grey claws at the end. He had large, green eyes and two yellow antennae reaching out from his head. His wing-case was covered with grey spines.
Finally was what used to be Bukamon, he looked like a white, furry seal creature with no nose and had long ears, purple markings, orange-red mane, large claws, a short tail, large green eyes, and a W-shaped smile with two pointed teeth protruding out.
"What in the-" Sora began "Look at them! What's happened to the little guys?!"
"They're…bigger" Tai seemed to be in too much shock to say anything aside from pointing out the obvious.
"Hiya!" the one who had been Koromon yelled, leaping towards the giant bug, followed closely by the others. The giant bug nocked them away, sending them crashing to the ground, but they hopped back up to their feet rather quickly.
"All right then, you asked for it!" the one who used to be Koromon called as the giant bug started to lift off the ground again.
"Poison ivy!" the one who used to be Tanemon yelled as vines shot out of her fingers and wrapped around the bug's leg, keeping it from getting too far off the ground.
"Boom bubble!" the one that used to be Tokomon yelled from where he was flying, close to the giant bug's head, causing a blast of air crash into the bug from his mouth.
"Super shocker!" the one who used to be Motimon cried, flying up towards the giant bug's head. A bolt of red lightning come blasting from where his wings were and crashed into the large bug's head, making him land on the ground where the one that used to be Bukamon slid under his legs and knocked him to his knees.
"Stand back everyone!" The one who used to be Koromon called "Pepper breath!" A ball of fire came flying out of his mouth and hit the big bug.
"Blue blaster!" The one who used to be Tsunomon cried, shooting a stream of blue fire-like energy onto the big bug.
"Ice barrage!" The one who used to be Kitsunemon cried, shooting shards of ice from her mouth.
"Spiral twister!" The one that used to be Yokomon yelled from her position above the bug, shooting a spiraling beam of green fire-like energy out of her mouth. All three attacks hit at around the same time, making the bug start to catch on fire. They all landed next to the one that used to be Koromon.
"Now, all together!" the one that used to be Koromon called and the one who used to be Koromon, the one that used to be Motimon, the one that used to be Tsunomon, and the one that used to be Yokomon all shot their attacks at once, making the giant bug burst into flames and fall backwards into the trees, that somehow didn't catch on fire.
"Wow…" a hushed whisper came from all the humans.
"They made vapor wear out of them…" Izzy whispered
"Amazing." Tai once again demonstrated his ability to state the obvious. The digimon turned around and came running back towards them laughing happily.
"Told you we could do it!" the one who used to be Koromon called as he ran forward.
"Koromon, or Agumon, or whoever you are! You did it, you did it!" Tai cried, running forward and grabbing his digimon partner by the arms, picking him up slightly and bouncing him up and down happily. Matt released Amaya who immediately ran forward and grabbed her partner in a tight hug, feeling the essence of her partner's being flood through her once again. She was happy to find that her little friend's fur was still soft to the touch even though it looked like ice.
"See," the small, fox-like creature said "I told you we'd be fine. I said I wouldn't leave you and I meant it." Amaya laughed and nodded into her fur. The other digimon were all to their partners, Mimi was crouched down and holding her partner laughing. T.K. was hugging his digimon, also laughing happily. Matt looked rather freaked out by his digimon who was reaching up towards him. Sora was holding hands…um wings…with her digimon and Izzy's digimon was hovering above him. Joe was looking down at his partner in obvious confusion.
"How about that super shocker? Pretty wizard, huh?" The one that used to be Motimon asked Izzy, who gave him a thumbs up. Suddenly a loud crash interrupted their celebrating. Amaya spun around to see the giant bug coming out of the trees again.
"Watch out!" Sora called to Tai, who somehow hadn't noticed that the giant bug was back. Tai and the one that used to be Koromon turned, saw the bug, and spun to run back over to where the others were. They moved just in time because the giant bug's pitchers hit the ground where they had been just three seconds before, imbedding into the rock and causing a huge crack to form in the ground.
"Guess we celebrated too soon." Said Tai, as he looked back at the giant bug. The crack that the bug's pitchers had created spread until it cut of the ledge that the children were standing on, causing it to break away from the cliff and fall into the river below, taking the children with it. As they were falling Matt grabbed T.K., who was close to him, and reached for Amaya who was clutching her partner close to her and reaching for him with the other.
"Sora!"
"Izzy!"
"T.K.!" The tree digimon who could fly grabbed ahold of their respective partners tried to slow their fall, but they weren't strong enough and were soon falling too, especially T.K.'s partner, since T.K. wasn't about to let go of Matt.
"Poison ivy!" Mimi's partner called as she used her vines to grab ahold of the side of the cliff in an attempt to stop their fall, but the rock that she grabbed onto broke off and they continued to fall. The first ones to hit the water were Joe and the one that used to be Bukamon.
"Fish fest!" The white seal looking digimon stuck his head out of the water and yelled. No sooner had he said it than hundreds of smallish fish came swarming to the top of the water, creating a giant raft of sorts that pulled Joe above the water and created a soft landing pad for all the others.
"Wow…this is some ride…" Tai sounded as confused as the rest of them felt. Amaya and her partner scooted over next to Matt and T.K. for Amaya's emotional comfort, though Amaya was inwardly cursing herself for becoming so dependent on someone, it never lasted. Suddenly Matt tensed, causing T.K. and Amaya to look up at him in confusion and see that he was looking up towards the cliff.
"Look out!" He yelled. Amaya turned her head to look where Matt was looking and gasped, the rest of the cliff, as well as the giant bug, was crashing down towards them!
"GO!" Joe's partner yelled and the fish picked up their pace, getting everyone out of the way of the falling debris. But the rocks caused the river to surge, forming waves that tossed their fish raft around rather brutally. Children and digimon alike pressed themselves to the fish and held on for dear life.
