The DigiDestined along with their Digimon are walking up Infinity Mountain. "This place could really use a good bus system." Joe said.

"Yeah, but it looks like we're at the end of the line." Matt replied. Tai turns around to see Matt, TK, Mimi, Izzy, Gabumon, Patamon, Palmon and Tentomon coming.

"We're doomed. Trapped on an island. We'll never get out of here alive!" Joe panics. "I knew I wouldn't like camp, but would my folks listen to me? No … I wanted to go to summer school." He ranted.

A Black Gear flies through the sky.

"Another Black Gear." Said a lion like Digimon as he continued to walk up Infinity Mountain. "I sense danger." Suddenly a green ogre like Digimon who wield a big club, pops out and attacks.

"Pummel Whack! Lemon, you maybe mighty but now you face me. Your kind hearted leadership is unimpressive." He charges at Leomon.

"Ogremon, you truly are the most evil of the bad Digimon. There is no limit to your ruthlessness." Lemon said as he pulls out his sword and it clings with Ogremon's club, causing the two weapons to get knocked out of their hands.

"Grr … no one asked you here." Ogremon said. "No one wants you here. I strongly suggest that you go now! While you still can."

"The endless attack of Black Gears that keep dropping from this mountain are turning peaceful and innocent Digimon into monsters and I have come here to make it stop!" Lemon said, raising his fists.

"What a joke. You have been warned." Ogremon said, he raises a fist, shooting out dark purple energy, as Leomon shoots out orange energy from his own fist. Once both attacks collide it causes the surrounding rocks to explode into rubble.

"Both of you stop! Cease this foolishness! I command the two of you to work together for me, not fight! You will work for me!" A mysterious voice calls out.

"I will never do!" Lemon refused.

"Neither will I!" Ogremon also refused.

Devimon floats over to them, he's their same height. "Be silent! For I am Devimon, ultimate ruler of the demon Underworld! You must obey my every command!"

"Sir, you don't need that joker. I can handle whatever you want done without anyone's assistance!" Ogremon said.

"I think not. It is the DigiDestined kids we'll be fighting." Devimon grinned evilly.

Leomon's surprised at this news. "The DigiDestined? Where are they?"

"They're already here, on Infinity Mountain. The DigiDestined have proven to be powerful; more powerful then I anticipated. Now, find them and destroy the entire group!"

"Destroy them?! I'll destroy you for having threatened the DigiDestined!" Leomon threatens. "Fist of the Beast King!" He unleashes his attack straight at Devimon, but it goes right through him as he warps away.

"Please, Lemon. I am not requesting your co-operation, I am demanding it! Prepare for the Touch Of Evil!" Devimon's clawed hand latches onto Leomon's back, filling his dark energy. Lemon screams in pain as the energy flows through him. "Now you will obey my every command!"

Lemon speaks in a duel tone and his eyes are solid white. "Yes … I will … obey."

On Infinity Mountain, Tai is sitting as he looks through this telescope as he draws on a piece of paper with a black marker. "Hmm." He hummed as he took in the view.

"Whatcha doing?" Agumon asks him.

"Making a map of the island. That way, we can know where we are and where we've already been." Tai answered as he continued to draw.

"Yes, that works in theory." Izzy agreed, before looking at Tai's map. "What? Did you say map or mess?"

"No question man. You are the dude of doodles." Matt added.

"If you follow that map, it will lead you right into a headache." Sora commented on Tai's drawing.

Tai glared at her, then turned back to his 'map'. "Well, I can read it just fine and that's all that's important." He growls.

"How about instead of a map. Why don't one of you five boys go and mark a rock or a boulder?" Meiko suggested, gaining funny looks from everyone. "Don't look at me like that!" She cried, blushing hard. "It's human nature for you boys when there's no outhouse around!" She spins around and folds her arms.

Sora rolls her eyes, while Tai smiles as he stood up with his map in hand.

"She's not wrong." Matt agrees, looking at Izzy who nods.

"Yes, it is very true."

"What's an outhouse?" Guilmon asks, looking at Agumon.

"Beats me." Agumon shrugs.

"We don't need a map to know that we're totally lost!" Joe groans, while still slumped onto the ground. "I figured that out a long time ago."

"I just figured out that these gloves really don't go with this dress." Mimi pouts, looking down at her outfit.

"How sad." Palmon said.

"Mimi, there's more to life then fashion!" Meiko snaps.

"Hey, you gotta look the part when you're out in public." Mimi said cheerfully.

Meiko fully turns to her. "There is no public!" She yells. "And no police to return us home!"

Tai quickly comes up to her. "Meiko, it's going to be ok." He gently places a white loved hand on her shoulder. "We can't lose our heads."

"Listen soccer boy!" Meiko pokes her left index finger onto Tai's chest. "You - what's that noise?" She started until they all hear a rumbling sound.

"I don't know but I have a feeling we're going to find out!" Joe said.

"At least it won't be a long wait." Sora said, seeing Leomon coming up on the other side of the mountain.

"Who's that!?" A freaked out Meiko cried, grabbing Tai in a death grip.

"Don't worry, Leomon is our friend." Patamon reassured her.

"With big teeth!" TK said.

"He just uses them for smiling." Patamon continued.

"He's just a leader and role model for all Digimon." Gabumon added.

"I want the children!" Leomon said, shocking everyone.

"He's going to eat us!" Meiko cried, clinging harder to Tai. "Somebody do something!"

"Call me paranoid but I think it's time we run!" Joe said, as Leomon pulls out a sword and jumps over the gap and chases the DigiDestined up the mountain.

"Run!" Sora cried. As they continued to run, Tai's map flies out of his pocket.

"My map!" He shouts, turning around as he lets Meiko's hand go and chases the paper.

"Tai!" Meiko cried, turning back around and starting to run after him but is stopped by Agumon and Guilmon who grab her.

"Tai, forget the map!" Agumon calls. Leomon approaches and Tai automatically stops.

"Pepper Breath!" Agumon shouts, sending a fireball a Leomon and accidentally burning Tai's map in the process. Leomon blocks the attack with his sword as Tai and Aguemon run off, joining the others.

"Sorry about your map." Agumon apologizes.

"That's ok. At least it didn't fall into the hands on the enemy." Tai said as they continued to run down Infinity Mountain.

"Don't slow down, Joe! He's right behind us!" Matt shouts as he runs behind the older kid, but suddenly Ogremon appears from behind a rock and blocks their path.

"And just where do you think you're going?" Ogremon asked, causing them to stop. "Well children, so good of you to stop by."

"Does he look hungry to you?" Patamon asked.

"I'm too small to eat and I'm full of junk food!" TK exclaimed.

"We'll he's not against a little snack." Gomamon said.

"Make it easy on yourselves. Give up now - or else!" Leomon said.

"I don't see an exit door." Matt said as TK and Patamon hid behind him.

"This proves the theory that well executed teamwork is efficient even for bad guys." Izzy said.

"A taser would be nice right about out now!" Meiko whimpered.

"Leomon has always been Ogremon's worst enemy. What's happened to him?" Biyomon asked, not understanding what was happening.

"Ready Leomon? Charge!" Ogremon shouts. The two Digimon jumps at the kids, who are back to back in two teams.

Light beams from all the Digivices except for TK's.

"Agumon."

"Gabumon."

"Biyomon."

"Digivolve to."

The three Digivoices are vibrating as they're activated.

"Greymon!"

"Garurumon!"

"Birdramon!"

The three Digimon grow and leap towards Leomon, Greymon knocking him back with his horn.

Soon the other Digivoices start to vibrate as they too are activated.

"Tentomon."

"Palmon."

"Gomamon."

"Guilmon."

"Digivolve to."

"Kabuterimon!"

"Togemon!"

"Ikkakumon!"

"Growlmon!"

They soon grow to meet Ogremon, and Ikkakumon uses his horn to knock him away. Above them, standing on the mountain, Devimon watches the whole fight.

"They've all Digivolved!" He exclaims surprised.

"Come with me, TK!" Matt exclaimed, grabbing his little brother away from the fight.

"Let him have it, Greymon!" Tai calls out.

"Nova Blast!" Greymon shouts, firing a huge fireball from his mouth. Leomon blocks it with his sword.

"Harpoon Torpedo!" Ikkakumon shouts, firing his own attack. The torpedo strikes Ogremon.

"Meteor Wing!" Birdramon shouts, firing flaming fireballs. Leomon barely has time to block.

"Needle Spray!" Togemon shouts, sending her own blast. Striking Ogremon, despite his efforts to block.

"Listen up! Everybody, altogether now!" Tai calls out.

Devimon watches with amazement. "They have learned the secret of teamwork. This group of six attacking together is quite dangerous. But why hasn't little Patamon Digivolved?"

"Are you ready?!" Tai asks.

Greymon readies a fireball, but the top of the mountain where Devimon is - explodes and rocks fall down towards the kids.

"Avalanche, look out!" Joe cried.

Everyone hides behind a rock formation.

"Howling Blaster!"

"Pyro Blaster!"

"Meator Wing!"

"Electro Shocker!"

"Nova Blast!"

The five attacks turn the rocks into dust.

XxXxXxXx

They all ducked their heads, dust in Tai's hair.

"Ow wow. Everybody ok?" He asks, helping Meiko up.

"Oh yeah, like a day at the beach." Matt sarcastically answered.

"I think I need a facial!" Mimi whines.

"Huh?" Tai saw all the Digimon have transformed back and are lying on the ground. Tai hurries up to his Digimon. "Whoa, Agumon, speak to me!"

"We aren't wounded, Tai - we're all just a little exhausted." Agumon answered.

"Two Digivolutions in one day, no wonder!" Tai said.

"Poor Biyo." Sora said as she cradled her Digimon.

"Hey, what happened to the bad guys?" Izzy asked.

"They just disappeared." Tai said.

"Are you sure?" Patamon asked with worry.

"Do you think that avalanche knocked them off the cliff?" Gabumon asked as Joe walks over to the edge.

"Hello? Unless they can fly, they're goners." Joe answered.

"Neither one of them had wings so I'm pretty sure they weren't air worthy." Sora replied.

"Can we please get off this mountain!?" Meiko asked. "I'm getting jumper then jumping beans!"

"Whoa, that's pretty jumpy." TK said.

"Nothing is logical here. Anything is bound to happen, including flying monsters!" Joe exclaimed.

"For once, you might be right Joe." Sora said.

Agumon turns to Tai, who has a thoughtful look on his face. "Something bothering you?"

"It's that avalanche. I just can't figure what set it off." Tai answered, staring up at the place where it started.

"Stress accumulates until a crack develops and with access weight, the terra firms suddenly isn't so firm." Izzy said.

"Thanks for the history lesson, professor." Meiko folds her arms.

"You think so?" Tai asks Izzy. "It looked to me like something blasted it loose." He said as they continue down the mountain.

XxXxXxXxXxXxX

The sun once again starts to set and the DigiDestined are walking through a forest. Meiko bringing up the rear. Joe turns and walks over to her.

"Hey, why don't you just tell Tai the truth?" He asked, making her look up at him.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She denies.

"It's clear you like him." Joe told her. "And it's ok to have a crush on him."

"Yes, you would feel so much better." Izzy added, walking up along Meiko's other side. "I may hide behind my computer, but I do notice things."

"I." She starts, then rapidly shakes her head. "I can't!"

"Hey guys!" Tai cheerfully calls from the lead, and they all turn to see a huge building in the distance.

"A mansion!" Joe cried with excitement.

"Or maybe it's a hotel. Come on!" Tai yells and they all run towards the building.

"We may have found other life forms." Izzy said as they now stood outside the forest. "Look at the grounds. I mean, someone had to have mowed the lawn."

"What a place! I can't believe my eyes, it's just too good to be sure!" Tai exclaimed.

"I hope they have a hot tub. Just as long as it's not too hot." Joe said. He, Matt and Meiko run up to the front doors.

"Meiko, guys, don't just go charging in there! It might be dangerous!" Tai calls after them, but they kept running.

"Hey, was this on your map?" Agumon asks Tai.

"Hmmm, somehow I don't think so."

"Come on Joe, what's the hold up?" Meiko asks, hands on hips.

"Yeah. Open the door." Matt urged.

"Maybe we should knock first." Joe said nervously.

"Joe, nobody knocks on the front doors a hotel." Matt argued.

"This place should've been on your map." Agumon told Tai.

"Agumon, if I recall, you burned up my map."

"Oh yeah." Agumon sheepishly said with a sweat drop running down his head.

"Well, here goes." Joe said. He opens the door and looks inside. Inside has two visible floors with a landing visible form the ground, lots of doors with lots of rooms. The decor is all red. "I don't see a desk clerk. Anybody here?"

"Looks weird." Tai said.

"Feels weird." Agumon said.

"Well it doesn't look or feel weird to me." Joe said.

Tai, Izzy and Sora wait just outside the door.

"Perhaps my definition of weird is different then yours." Izzy replied.

"I'm with you." Sora nods.

"Think about it. Are we safer in the open woods, with no shelter, or here in a sturdy building we can defend from attack?" Joe asked.

TK walks past Joe and Matt as he goes further into the lobby. Patamon flies beside him.

"I have to admit, you have a point." Matt said as his brother's face lit up.

"She's beautiful!"

There's a painting of an angel, hands raised in prayer, behind Joe who turns to look at the painting.

"Huh? Oh yeah."

"Lookit, it's an angel!" TK exclaims, pointing to the painting.

"What's an angel, TK?" Patamon asks.

"Someone special that watches over you. Kinda like you guys." TK tried to answer.

"If this is a spooked out haunted house, would there be a picture of angels hanging on the walls? I don't think so." Joe said.

A sudden chin ran down Meiko's back. "Unless it's the real Haunted Mansion from the Disney movie." She freaked herself out. "Ok, I'm out!" She tried to run back for the front door.

"Wait!" Tai ran after her. "Meiko." He was able to hook his arm around her waist and pull her back.

"Relax, we just want be careful and talk quieter or you'll wake everyone up." Sora said, gesturing to the sleeping Digimon.

"They're out like a like." Matt said.

"I hope they have a dress shop. I never worn the same thing two days in a row before." Mimi said as the others walked in and closed the door behind them.

"Lets take a nap later." Izzy suggests.

"Well, no crowds. We must've missed the summer rush." Tai comments.

"We keep missing everything." Sora said.

"This is one kooky, mixed up world." Tai realized.

"Let's go." Matt said. Suddenly Agumon and Gabumon wake up. Gabumon sniffs the air.

"Do you smell that?" Gabumon asks.

"It wasn't me, I swear it!" TK cried.

"No, not you." Gabumon shook his head. "It's the delicious odor of food."

"Food?" Everybody repeats.

"Are you sure?" Matt asks.

"Very sure, and plenty of it!" Gabumon nods.

"Show us where, Gabumon!" Matt told him.

"It's this way, follow me!" Gabumon said, before running off in a direction.

"Wait for us!" Sora calls after him.

"Oh boy!" Joe exclaimed.

"Hurry, hurry!" Biyomon cheers.

TK and Mimi glance at the angel picture again, then quickly follow. Patamon studies the painting fora good long moment, before realizing his being left behind.

"Huh? Hey, wait for me!" He calls, quickly moving to catch up.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX

The kids and Digimon all stare at the huge table that's full of food.

"Look at that spread!" Tai exclaimed.

"Wow." Joe said.

"Sorry for saying this everybody." Matt said, pulling TK back from the table. "But this looks like a set up."

"Matt's right. It could be some kind of trap." Sora agreed.

The Digimon pay no attention as they stuff their faces.

"Agumon, are you sure this food is safe to eat?" Tai asked, and received a burp from his Digimon.

Tentomon's eating with all four of his arms. Each of the Digimon let out a few burps as they continue to stuff their faces.

"Everyone's eating, but their table manners are appalling." Mimi stats.

"Guess that's because they like it." TK said.

"That's it! I can't bear to look any longer! I'm gonna eat it! At least I won't die hungry!" Shouts Joe and walks up to the table. "On your mark, get set."

"Ah." Tai walked up to the others and they all go to the table to eat.

"Lobster matrede, is there a table with a view?"

"Peanut butter and pickles, this is the best pizza ever!"

"Ok, if one of us gets sick, we all get sick! That's teamwork too!"

"Pass the mashed potatoes please!"

"Potato chips, chocolate chips, fish and chips - I'll have any kind of chips!"

XxXxXxXx

Later, everyone decides to take a bath.

"Heads up, Matt!" Shouts Tai before he jumps into the water, the water splashes everywhere.

"Watch the hair, dude!"

"Is that what it is? I thought some kind of bird made a nest of your head!" Joked Tai, making TK laugh.

"Warm water is perfect for removing soil and epidermis; you know dirt and dead skin?" Izzy said, rubbing the side of his face with a towel.

"Whenever my skin gets dirty, I just shed it." Tentomon said.

"That would be difficult for me." Izzy said.

"Umm … may I join?" A nervous Joe asked, nervously standing by the bathroom door with a towel around his waist.

"Huh? Hey, don't be shy. There aren't any girls in here. Come on in. So far we haven't found any sharks." Matt said.

"No big ones!" Tai said, grinning.

Joe's starting to get flustered now. "It looks cold!"

"Humans can be so silly." Patamon said.

"Humans aren't the only silly ones." Tentomon said. "Hey, where's Gabumon?"

"He's not silly, just shy."

On the other side, the girls are relaxing on their side, the boys being on the upper level, the girls can hear the whole conversation.

"I'll get in, but I guarantee you won't like it."

Mimi and Meiko look relaxed in the hot water, while Sora looks up towards the upper level.

"Why do they have to be so noisy?" The red head asks.

"Relax. Forget about them." Mimi tells her.

"I've never been so relaxed in my whole life." Gomamon said, simply floating on his back in the water, causing all the girls to blush hard and angry.

"Gomamon, you're not suppose to be over here!" Shouts Biyomon.

"Get back to the boys side!" Palmon said, using her vines to grab Gomamon.

"Hey, let go! Heeeeeeeelp!" Gomamon yells, before being flung towards the boys side. A loud splash is heard.

"Hey! Watch out Gomamon!" Izzy is heard.

"Where'd you come from?" Tai is the next to be heard.

XxXxXxXxXxXx

After finishing the bath, the kids are wearing white robes and they found a room for each kid. "Haha, only thing better is bunk beds!" TK said as he and Patamon hop onto one of the beds.

"Boy this is great. Last time I had a bed like this, I was dreaming." Izzy said said, feeling the mattress underneath his weight.

"Oh how I miss sleeping on soft silk sheets." Mimi said, already in her bed with Palmon.

"I'll tell you what I don't miss, I don't miss hiking through the blazing hot desert and another thing I really don't miss is starving in the jungle. Oh, we are a long way from home." Joe said, sitting in his own bed with Gomamon, the teen looked around the room. The boys on one side, the girls on the other as they all look homesick. "Sorry."

"That's ok, Joe. We all miss being home and I'm sure that we're all wondering if we'll ever get back there." Tai said.

"I'll bet our disappearance caused a big fuss at school and all over town." Matt said, leaning back in his bed with his right knee bent and his hands behind his head as he looks towards the ceiling. "But we've been gone so long, everybody's probably given up looking for us by now."

"Mom and dad wouldn't stop." TK told him sadly.

"I'm homesick, aren't you?" Mimi asks.

"Question is. How do we find the path home?" Meiko asks, a few tears sliding down her cheeks, Guilmon gently hugged her.

"We'll find our way back." Sora said gently. "Don't worry."

Mimi took a deep breath. "Lets try to sleep and try to hav nice dreams."

Everyone said their goodnight.

Down in the lobby, Devimon emerges out of the angel painting, and spreads his wings making Leomon and Ogremon appear. "Ready?"

"What a joy to be rid of the DigiDestined at last." Ogremon said in delight.

"What about you, Leomon?" Devimon questions.

"I cannot disobey your orders." Leomon said, still under the evil control. Devimon evil grins, until they hear someone coming from the upstairs.

"I can go to the bathroom by myself." Tai said.

"I don't mind keeping you company, Tai." Agumon said. "It's dark and scary here."

"For your information, I happen to like the dark. Stop treating me like a kid." Tai said as they head for the bathroom, Agumon goes into a stall and Tai waits. "I should have known it was you who was afraid to go to the bathroom by yourself."

"Oh Tai, don't be upset with me. I'm not afraid. I didn't really have to go to the bathroom, I just came along because I have to protect you."

"Then what are you doing in there?" Asks Tai.

"I don't even want to talk about it, Tai." Agumon said. Unknown to either, Ogremon is in the next staff. "I don't know if that ugly green guy scared you, but he really scared me. Who knows where he is now." The Digimon comes out of the staff. Suddenly Ogremon bursts through the next stall.

"Now I'm going to destroy you both!"

Tai and Agumon run out of the bathroom and towards the others. "Wake up everybody! Ogremon's here!" Tai shouts, he slides to a stop when something blocks his and Agumon's way.

"I must obey. Destroy them … the children." A still controlled Leomon, said.

"Why do you hate me?" Tai asks.

"He hates you because I commanded him too." A voice spoke, causing Tai to turn to his right to see Devimon standing on the railing.

"Get ready, Tai. Now the real trouble starts." Agumon said.

"Agumon, who is that?" Tai asks.

"That's Devimon."

"He looks bad."

"He is. He's the guy who invented the nightmare."

"I have no more use of this imaginary building." Devimon said, and the whole building starts to crumble away. Matt slowly wakes up to find the room is no longer a room. He bolts up.

"Wake up everybody! Something's wrong!" He shouts, causing his friends to wake up and Mimi screams.

"What happened?" Sora asks as she, Mimi and Meiko cover themselves.

"Huh?" Joe sits up.

Devimon raised a hand, causing red and black energy to erupt from it.

"Because together you are strong. I will use my Touch Of Evil to scatter you throughout the Digital World." Devimon said as the beds other others are floating in the air.

"I hope this is a bad dream!" Tai said, watching as the others were in the air.

"Tai!" Agumon exclaimed, grabbing his stomach. "I'm too weak to walk even after all that food I've eaten." He doubles over.

"The food, the bath, the building … none of it was real." Devimon said. "I created all of it in your imagination."

"Listen you, if you don't bring down my friends, you're going to be in really big trouble!" Tai demanded.

"That's amusing. My concerns are much more important then your friends."

"That's my only concern. You bring them back now!"

"Bring them back? You insolent brat! You dare to order me?" Devimon asks. "Allow me to show you who's really in control here!" Suddenly the entire island violently shakes. "You see, I have discovered the secret of the Black Gears from below. I call them forth to do my bidding." Devimon said and the island splits apart. "You and your friends happened upon this tiny island which is just one of the fragments of your world, scattered across the enormous ocean. You pretend you are strangers who know nothing of this world but I am aware you are the DigiDestined who are sent to rescue this world from my domination."

"You got us all wrong." Tai told him. "We were just some kids at summer camp who somehow got sucked into your world."

"Your little act no longer amuses me. It's time to bring an end to the DigiDestined."

"I will destroy them." Leomon said.

"What?" Tai asks.

"Everyone." Leomon said. Agumon tries to attack, but only manages to spit out a small flame, Leomon sends his own attack, knocking Agumon backwards. "Now the boy."

"Yes, and then the others, one by one. Once those irritating children are out of the way, nothing will be able to stop me!" Devimon said.

Leomon grabs Tai and pulls out his sword.

"No, help!" Tai shouts.

"TAI!" Meiko screamed, tears shining in her eyes, one hand clutching the handle of the headboard of her head and her free hand stretched out to him.

"Don't waist your breath." Leomon said.

Tai's bed comes crashing down a few feet from them and Tai's Digivice rolls out and lands near Leomon's feet. It let out a massive mount of light, hitting Leomon and driving out the darkness through Leomon's back.

"What are you waiting for Leomon?" Devimon demands. "Do it!"

"The Black Gear, the light drove it out." Agumon said. "Devimon no longer has control over Leomon."

Leomon returns to normal, and places Tai back down.

"I think you're right. How do you feel Leomon?" Tai asks.

"I am free of Devimon's power!"

Tai picks up his Digivice. "Leomon, do you know what this thing is?" He asks, while holding it.

"I can tell you that for me it is proof that you are the leader of the DigiDestined! The Digivoices are powerless in the hands of anyone else."

"That's right. But you are no match for me!" Devimon said. He gestures to the beds and they all drop downwards.

"Do not harm them!" Leomon shouts. He shoots an attack, blowing up Devimon's platform. Devimon flies upwards to escape but loses control over the beds in the process.

"Leomon is helping us! We're going to be fine!" Tentomon said.

"This isn't over, Leomon! Or have you forgotten your old friend?"

"Ogremon!" Leomon roars.

"Here Leomon!" Ogremon shouts. He leaps forward and Leomon blocks the bone club with his sword. "Your soft heart is your weakness, we ill never join allies and you will never know true power."

"You may defeat me, but the DigiDestined will be our of your reach!" Leomon said.

"No!" Tai cried.

"Yes! Go now!" Leomon turns and drives his sword onto the edge of the patch of ground, causing it to crack where Tai and Agumon are standing. It falls into the ocean and the boys land on it as they start to drift away.

"Why?" Tai asks.

"You're our last hope! Without you, my world doesn't stand a chance of survival! My life is insignificant!" Leomon yells to Tai.

Ogremon leaps at him again, but Leomon blasts him back.

"You can escape too!"

"I must prevent Devimon from pursuing you!"

"Be careful!"

Devimon sneaks up behind Leomon, who whirls around with his sword, but Devimon is faster and lunges with his claw. Leomon's scream is heard in the distance.

Tai and Agumon knew Devimon had control over Leomon again. "LEOMON!" Tai screams.
