"Whoever it is and whatever they want doesn't concern me and you can tell them go to hell," a woodmon yelled.

"See how disrespectful I told you they can be," Gazimon said.

"Don't worry we'll teach them some respect for others," Makuramon said.

"Yesss letss get thisss over with," Sandiramon said.

"Come on let's go then," Makuramon said.

"I don't know about this," Vajramon muttered.

"You already heard about how they treat other digimon from me," Gazimon said and makes a slitting motion with his hand across his neck.

Vajramon starts following the other two, 'How did I get myself caught up into this mess,' he thinks.

The same woodmon looks out the window and sees the three ultimate level digimon walking towards the front door of the inn causing him to go pale, "What the…why would they be hear and with Gazimon," he muttered to himself not liking what is going on one bit.

Meanwhile in a hidden room in the hotel, "You have to listen Lopmon and Terriermon are planning something and I don't like it one bit," the same figure that had been listening to them said, "For all we know they could be working for the Gazimon mayor and want to try to shut us down like some other digimon have before."

"Think about it," the Biyomon owner said as she's looking around the room for a specific map. Which is a bit difficult with the fact all around the room are maps strewn everywhere, on tables, chairs, the floor, some nailed to the walls. "Why would they offer their help with our problems to you if they were working for that scum of a digimon Gazimon. I mean use your head Airdramon, they haven't caused us any problems so far and I don't think they are going to."

"Just because they haven't done anything yet doesn't mean they won't," Airdramon said, "You remember about a month ago how that one digimon seemed ok and then two days later destroyed half of the rooms and some of them still haven't been fully repaired as of yet."

"Will just trust me for once," the Biyomon said, "I know those two can be trusted, besides I was the one who had a bad feeling about that one digimon you just mentioned."

"Biyomon," the woodmon yelled running into the room, "They're here."

"Who is here," the Biyomon asked.

"They are," Woodmon said, "Come quickly. They're here."

"Alright," the Biyomon said. She flew to a perch next to the main door. Standing outside is Gazimon.

"I told you wouldn't be happy," Gazimon said, "And they are not happy about someone disturbing the peace and going against the laws." He points at Vajramon, Sandiramon and Makuramon standing next to him.

"We devass can not allow you to go againsst the lawss," Sandiramon said.

"And what laws are we breaking," the Biyomon said trying to keep her rage under control, "That, that Gazimon there expects the digimon who live here to pay ninety percent of the money they earn towards taxes."

"That isn't what the problem we are addressing here," Makuramon said, "The problem is that you haven't been following the laws or paying any of your taxes."

"It's kind of hard to pay for anything when he has completely blocked off the main roads that lead to this hotel," the Biyomon said, "And because of it we hardly get any customers now."

"We are coming in there to sssettle thisss right now," Sandiramon said.

"Sorry but I'm not going to let anyone associated with that Gazimon in here at the moment," the Biyomon said and closes the door.

"Are you sure that is a wise thing to do," the woodmon standing next to her asked.

"At the moment I really don't care," the Biyomon said as she glares at the woodmon.

"I'm just saying that we shouldn't treat them like that because they are some of the Devas," the woodmon said nervously from the glare he's getting.

Meanwhile out front of the hotel Vajramon pulls out his two swords, "Treasure sword," he said as he crosses the blades and launches the attack.

Back in the hotel, "I have talked with..." the Biyomon started but doesn't finish as the main doors explode sending both her and the woodmon flying to the other side of the room and moments later the woodmon bursts into data.

Hearing the noise Terriermon grabs a digimon that is running by, "What is going on," Terriermon asked.

"I'm not sure," a Floramon said, "I heard that three of the devas are with the Gazimon mayor for some reason."

Terriermon looks at Lopmon and seeing the look in his eyes she shakes her head no, "Whatever you are doing get back to it and stay away from those three at the moment," Terriermon said.

"I wasn't planning on go anywhere near them anyways," the Floramon said running off.

"You didn't sense anything either," Lopmon said, "That means something definitely is wrong with this picture."

"There is," Terriermon said.

"What's going on?" Henry asked.

"There are fake devas outside," Lopmon said.

"How do you know they are fake?" Henry asked.

"We don't talk about what we are," Terriermon said.

"I got an idea," Henry said before he grabs Terriermon.

"What do you want?" Gazimon asked.

"A challenge the winner gets the hotel," Terriermon said walking out alone.

"Alright," Gazimon said, "What is the challenge?"

"Well the challenge is," Terriermon cut off as Henry walked into the room.

"Is that a Gazimon or did a SaberLeomon hack up a hairball," Henry said.

Vajramon smirked at the insult as Gazimon becomes enraged, "You're going to pay for that insult," Gazimon growled.

"What are you going to do go crying to your mommy," Henry said, "Oh wait that's right you don't have any parents."

"That does it," Gazimon growled, "We are going to settle this right now."

"Alright then let's get this challenge over with," Terriermon said.

"Huh."

"You said we're going to settle this right now," Terriermon said, "So that's what we are going to do."

Gazimon turned back to Henry to see him smirking, "You tricked me," Gazimon yelled.

"What do you mean," Henry asked playing dumb, "I didn't even know what was going on and to me you do look like something a SaberLeomon hacked up."

Airdramon flies into the room, "I thought I told you that we didn't want your help," he said and turned to Vajramon and feeling pure rage towards him and isn't sure why.

"I know what I'm doing;" Terriermon said, "Besides I think there is someone else you should be more concerned about." He used his ear to point toward where the Biyomon landed.

"What are you doing here," Airdramon asked, "It's not safe."

"This is my hotel and I want to be here when they talk about it," the Biyomon said.

"What is this challenge you speak of?" Gazimon asked.

"Simple," Terriermon said, "You see those walls at the end of the street the team who destroys the most walls win. You win you get the hotel for free but we win and you hold an election."

"Wait," Gazimon said.

"You already agreed," Terriermon said, "Ready set start."

Gazimon turns to the devas and smiles as they run off. "What's the matter you haven't moved," he mocks Terriermon.

"Don't need to," Terriermon said, "Henry." Henry nods, "Terriermon bio-merge to…MegaGargomon Gryphon mode." A large robotic lion stood before the Gazimon. It spread its massive wings as the missile pods on its back open up, "King of the sky Wrath."

Gazimon mouth drop as he watch the missiles blast away most of the walls. A group of digimon looks at the rubble. "You lost," Henry said after separating from Terriermon, "So it's time for an election."

"You cheated," Gazimon hissed, "First you tricked me and then you cheated by merging with that freak!"

"How can I cheat when I never said any kind of rules," Terriermon said.

A few moments later the three digimon come walking back over to the hotel, "What happened," Makuramon growled.

Meanwhile Rika was startled awake from all the noise and walked out of the room she was sleeping in, "Uh where are you going Rika," Takato asked as he sat up in one of the four beds in the room.

"I'm going to see what is going on," Rika said as she turned around to face Takato and walked back to just inside the door of the room, "I don't like it when I'm rudely awakened by anything."

"Give me a few minutes and I'll go with you to see what is going on as well," Takato said as he stood up and looked around the room for his clothes.

"I don't need you babysitting me goggle head," Rika growled.

"It's nothing like that Rika," Takato said as he pulled his shirt over his head and walked to the door, "I also want to know what is going on at this time in the morning."

"Whatever," Rika said as she walked out into the hallway. As she walks down the hall she passes by a door with plywood holding the door together. On the door is a sign that read do not enter, currently under repair.

"Wait for me Rika," Takato yelled as he ran out of the room and nearly trips over his own two feet.

"Will you just leave me alone for the time being," Rika said, "I'm going downstairs."

Takato watches as Rika disappears from his view, "I wonder what is wrong with Rika," he muttered.

Back in the lobby of the hotel Gazimon turned to look at Vajramon, "Those two are interfering with things I think that they should be taken care of."

'Whatever you are planning Terriermon you better do it now,' Henry thinks getting a bad feeling about what is going to happen.

"Don't tell us what to do weakling," Makuramon said, "Though I do agree that they need to be dealt with." He turns to Vajramon, "You will destroy both of them now."

"You can't be serious about doing that," Vajramon said his voice full of surprise.

"I am and you will do it now," Makuramon said as he gets in Vajramon's face.

Vajramon sighs in defeat as he pulls out his swords and readies to attack, "Treasure sword," he said launching the attack at an angle that he knows will miss Henry and Terriermon. Almost the same moment the attack left his blades Rika appeared right in front of him and before anyone can react the attack hits her and sends her flying into a wall behind Henry and Terriermon.

"Oh no Rika," Terriermon said as he turns to look at her.

Vajramon drops his blades in shock after seeing what just happened to Rika, "No that wasn't supposed to happen," he said as he backs away in horror from what he just did.

"RIKA!?" Takato yelled causing everyone in the lobby of the hotel to look in the direction of his voice in time to see him jump over the railing three floors up.

"Forget about that fool up there and just finish what you started by destroying that Renamon," Gazimon said grinning evilly.

"No I'm not going to do that," Vajramon said, "She isn't a part of this at all."

"That Renamon came a part of this the moment she set foot in this hotel," Makuramon said looking at Vajramon, "If you don't finish her off we will."

"Takato you idiot," Henry muttered as he watches his friend continue to fall.

'What was I thinking,' Takato thinks, 'I'm going to get myself killed.' As he falls time seems to slow down for him as he sees what is going on below him. "This must be what people mean when time seems to slow down when they are about to die," he muttered to himself.

"Finish her off now Vajramon," Makuramon said as he turns to look at him.

"No I won't do that," Vajramon said as he shakes his head, "She did nothing to deserve that and I refuse to do anything more to her."

"Fine then so be it," Makuramon said, "Sandiramon you finish the Renamon off then."

"With pleasssure," Sandiramon said.

"How is that even possible that Takato is doing that," Henry said as he's watching Takato still.

Takato continues to watch what is happening when Sandiramon goes to attack Rika to his horror as all he can do is watch and is surprised when Vajramon grabs one of his swords and stabs it through Sandiramon in such a way that stops him from moving.

"That is interesting," Terriermon said as he glances at Takato still coming down but slower then he was originally because Gallantmon CM's ten wings are sticking out of his back.

As Takato lands on the ground besides Vajramon the wings on his back disappear and he rushes over to Rika and stops dead in his tracks when he sees Rika's bruised, battered and bloody form laying by the wall with her left leg completely missing, "Oh no Rika," he yelled as tears fills his eyes as he runs over to her.

"You three aren't going to do any more," Terriermon said as his body is surrounded by a bright light as he takes on a more humanoid form.

As the light dies down a man like dog is standing in the place Terriermon, he is wearing a black leather sleeveless vest, a pair of khaki shorts that stops just below the knees and a metal gauntlet on his left arm. His fur is a golden-orange color.

"What happened to you Terriermon," Henry asked.

"I'm Dingomon now," Dingomon said, "And I have some business taking care of these three in front of me."

"What about Rika," Takato asked as he turns to look at Dingomon, "She's been injured badly and needs some help."

Meanwhile back at the palace in Tai's room, "Agumon I want to talk to you for a minute," Gabumon said as the door opens and Agumon walks into the room with Mary right behind him.

"What do you want to talk about," Agumon asked.

Gabumon is about to explain when an ear piercing scream catches everyone in the room attention and they turn to Renamon to see her faint, "Renamom what's wrong," Reremon asked hoping over to Renamon not getting any response.

"What just happened," Gatomon asked, "Renamon seemed fine and I don't see anything wrong with her?"

The digi-destined that are still in the room gather around Renamon looking for anything that could have made her cry out in pain like she did but aren't finding any indication of what happened. "Something strange is going on," Patamon said, "No one collapses like this for any reason at all."

"What is wrong with mom," Jyarimon asked.

A few moments later Renamon starts to wake up, "Renamon are you ok," Guilmon asked as his eyes are glistening in worry.

"I'm not sure what happened," Renamon said her voice full of fear, "I was fine and then my left leg was in excruciating pain all of a sudden." Renamon starts thinking and her eyes go wide in horror as a thought pops into her head, "Oh no something must have happened to Rika."

"Why would you think something happened to Rika," Kari asked in confusion.

"We have a bond with our tamers and when we get hurt they can feel it as well," Guilmon said, "Especially with Takato."

"I'm thinking that it works both ways and something must have happened to Rika," Renamon said as she starts to get up only for her left leg to buckle under her weight and she falls back down to the ground.

"Are you ok," Tai asked.

"I think that my leg is responding badly to the pain I felt," Renamon said as she moves her left leg and realizes she has no feeling in it currently.

"Let us help you up," Kari said as she outstretches her arm offering her hand to Renamon as Tai puts his arm around her shoulder and under her right arm.

"Thanks," Renamon said as they help her up, "I just hope Rika is fine."

"I'm sure she is going to be just fine," TK said trying to raise Renamon's spirit.

Meanwhile Takato holds Rika in his arm as best he can with out really moving her as tears stream down his face.

"Ah about time you showed up Antylamon," Makuramon said as he looks at Antylamon, "What took you so long to get here?"

Gazimon grins seeing Antylamon walk into the room as he thinks that Dingomon is now outnumbered four to one.

"Do I even know any of the four of you," Antylamon asked as she drops a baby level digimon from her hand, "So what is the plan?"

"Get thisss ssword out of me," Sandiramon hissed in pain from the sword still impaled in part of his tail.

"I'll handle these three for the moment myself," Dingomon said, "Rika needs help right now and you're going to help her."

"We need to deal with these imposters," Antylamon said.

"I can handle them myself I said," Dingomon said sternly, "If Rika doesn't get help soon she could end up dying."

Antylamon is a little taken aback by the tone of Dingomon's voice, "Alright I understand," Antylamon said and turns her head to see Takato with Rika's head in his lap and is shocked to see the condition she is in and rushes over to them, "Takato I need you to back up for the moment."

"No I'm not letting go of Rika," Takato said.

"Takato I need to have space to help her," Antylamon said.

"I said I'm not moving," Takato said.

Antylamon sighs, "I hate to do this but you leave me no other choice," she said as she uses a pressure point on Takato and moves Rika's head before moving him a little away.

"What did you do to me," Takato growled.

"You'll be fine in about an hour," Antylamon said as she kneels down next to Rika and puts her hands on her, "I had to get you out of the way and I used a pressure point that has paralyzed most of your muscles."

"What are you going to do," Takato asked.

"You must be crazy if you think you can take on three of us at once," Makuramon said.

"Yess he mussst be crazy," Sandiramon said after using his mouth to pull the sword out of his tail.

Dingomon watches as two of the imposters get ready to attack him, "Howl of the pack," he said as six ghostly copies of himself appears while he also becomes somewhat ghostly himself.

"Now that iss jussst some cheap trick," Sandiramon said, while Vajramon senses that there is more then meets the eye to the attack Dingomon is using.

Makuramon forms a ball of energy in his hand, "Primal orb," he yelled hurling the attack at one of the ghostly images of Dingomon only for it to pass right through, "What?!"

The ghostly image rushes towards Makuramon, "Growling round house," the ghostly figure of Dingomon yelled and Makuramon just smirks thinking that the attack won't hit but is caught completely off guard as the ghostly image becomes solid at the last second and sends him flying backwards from the attack hitting him.

"Venom Axe," Sandiramon yelled as he swings his halberd down on Dingomon only for it to pass through him as if he wasn't there, "Where did the real one go?"

"Actually it doesn't matter which one you think is real or not because it doesn't matter in the least," Dingomon said as he comes from the left side of Sandiramon and uses an uppercut on him with his arm in the gauntlet and shatters his jaw.

Gazimon seeing what's happening tries to get away only for Vajramon to get block his path of escape, "What the hell are you doing, you're supposed to be attacking them not me," Gazimon yelled.

"I don't care about what you say anymore," Vajramon said.

"You really must want me to destroy your loved ones don't you," Gazimon growled.

"That's not going to happen as long as you can't leave this area," Vajramon stated.

'Come on Antylamon hurry up and finish what you're doing,' Dingomon thinks, 'I want to end this fight with out anyone getting killed, but both of us using the same energy will cause something unpredictable to happen.'

Takato watches as both Antylamon and Rika bodies are surrounded in a greenish-blue light, "Uh what are you doing Antylamon," Takato asked.

"Takato just shut up because I need total concentration for this to work alright," Antylamon said.

"Sorry," Takato muttered.

"Hmm I wonder if I can get data on Dingomon even though he's my own partner," Henry said to himself and looks around the room to see Suzy watching what's going on from a few floors up and grabs the d-arc that appeared for her and the d-arc comes to life as data for Dingomon comes on the screen, "Says here that he's an ultimate level wolf man digimon, which is no surprise with how he looks, his attacks are Howl of the pack, Round house kick and Devas judgment?" Henry is about to lower the d-arc when more information appears replacing what he already read, "Says here that the gauntlet he wears is made of chrome digizoid metal and rumored to be stronger even then the dramon destroyers use by the wargreymon class of digimon."

"Why don't you fight fair," Makuramon yelled and starts forming orbs in his hands and hurls one right after another at all seven of the ghostly images of Dingomon and grins knowing that one of them has to hit the real one. Makuramon's jaw drops as all seven of the orbs he hurled at them passes through all of them with out hitting what he aimed for, "How is that even possible."

"It's simple," Dingomon said, "I'm all of them and none of them at the same time, until I decide too attack I'm like a ghost and then I become real right as I'm about to make contact."

"That's impossible," Makuramon yelled.

"Nothing is impossible," Dingomon said.

Takato continues watching what Antylamon is doing to Rika and turns away in the process of closing his eyes as the light surrounding them becomes almost blinding.

"So what happened to Rika anyways," Antylamon asked.

"She appeared right in front of Vajramon as he launched an attack," Henry said, "Then Takato pulled a stupid stunt and jumped from the third floor after it happened."

"So how is it Takato isn't injured then,' Antylamon asked, "Did you catch him on your back?"

"Actually it looked like Gallantmon CM's wings appeared on him and slowed him down," Henry said, "Though how he did that I have no clue."

"So how much longer is it going to take Antylamon," Dingomon asked as one of his ghostly forms is standing near Antylamon, "I can't keep this up forever and from what I saw the Vajramon seemed to be horrified after his attack hit her."

"It's going to be a couple more minutes," Antylamon said as she looks at Dingomon standing there as the six other ghostly images of him confuse the two imposters that are fighting him still.

"Shouldn't you be worrying about the fight," Takato asked turning to examine Dingomon closely since he didn't get a good look at him before.

"I'm doing fine using my six other images and needed to see how much longer it would take you to finish what you are doing," Dingomon said, "Eh give me a moment I need to take care of something."

"What do you mean," Takato asked and he can't help to shutter as Dingomon's eyes betray an emptiness that only a corpse could.

"Growling round house," Dingomon yelled as he spins in the air and hits Sandiramon in the back of the head and he is sent crashing to the ground.

Antylamon turns to Dingomon as the soulless look in his eyes is replaced with a commanding one, "You know you could have turned around so our friends didn't have to see that look in your eyes when you mostly went into one of your other ghostly images to fight," she said, "And made it solid."

"You're almost done it looks like," Dingomon said.

"Yeah I am," Antylamon said, "I just need a minute or two longer and then Rika should be perfectly fine."

"How can she be perfectly fine with what happened to her leg," Takato snapped at her, "If you hadn't noticed her left leg was completely blown off and as far as I know that isn't reversible."

"Takato just calm down," Antylamon said, "Rika is going to be fine in a minute and you'll see why I say that."

"You better be right for Rika and Renamon's sake," Takato said.

A few minutes later the light surrounding Antylamon and Rika starts to fade and Takato can see Rika lying on the ground peaceful and too his surprise Rika's left leg is completely in tact, "How did you do that," he asked.

"You did see data particles being pulled towards me at one point right," Antylamon asked and Takato moves his head up and down as he nods, "What I did is the ability I used healed Rika's minor wounds almost instantly while the rest of the time I was using it to pull the data that made up her leg and rebuilt it piece by piece."

"So Rika is going to be fine," Takato asked.

"Yes she will be," Antylamon said, "Though she'll probably be asleep most of the day if not till tomorrow with how much energy that ability uses from the one it's done on even though it pulls most of the energy from a separate source."

"So you're done for the moment Antylamon," Dingomon asked and gets a nod from her.

"Good then we can end this with out any more violence then," Dingomon said as he closes his eyes and concentrates for a moment and the other ghostly images disappear as he becomes solid as he starts making hand motions.

Antylamon starts walking over towards where Vajramon is keeping Gazimon from escaping, "I said move out of my way," Gazimon yelled and tries to get to the exit only for Vajramon to swipe his sword at him causing him to jump back.

"I'm tired of your listening to you period and I'm not letting you out of here," Vajramon said.

"Where did he go," Makuramon said as he's looking around for Dingomon and spots him near Rika and Takato, "There he is."

Before Makuramon or Sandiramon can do anything Dingomon's eyes shoot open glowing with a yellowish light as he turns to look at the three imposters, "Devas judgment," he said as a disk with the symbol of the dog deva forms and flies at the three of them.

Gazimon is shocked as he realizes that the digimon his hired goons have been fighting is an actual Deva, he sees his chance to get through as the disk passes through Vajramon and he is covered in a light, 'Now I can get out of here,' he thinks but before he can move Antylamon picks him up by the ears, "Hey let go of me do you know how much it hurts my ears," he yelled.

"Of course I do," Antylamon said, "That is why I grabbed you this way and you aren't going anywhere till the towns people are done with you."

Dingomon watches as the disk comes around and passes through the other two causing them to stop in their tracks as they are surrounded by light as well and the disk lands on the ground and expands to where it's underneath all three of them. "That should take care of them for now," he said.

"What did you do to them," Henry asked and his eyes widen in shock as he sees data particles start floating up from the area the light is in, "I can't believe you're doing stuff like this now!"

"What are you talking about," Dingomon asked a little confused to Henry's outburst as Antylamon also has a look of confusion on her face as well.

"You're no better then the original devas who killed or kept digimon from digi-volving past a certain level," Henry yelled, "You killed three digimon just now because they were doing what, impersonating devas?!"

"Henry you have it all wrong," Dingomon said, "I didn't…"

"Don't give me tha…" Henry yelled cutting Dingomon off and then trails off as the light dissipates and a Zurumon and Botamon are where Sandiramon and Makuramon had been, while where Vajramon was is a Patamon just sitting there with a look of confusion on his face.

"Looks like the Patamon over there might not be fully accountable for his actions," Antylamon said as she's hands Gazimon to Dingomon and then picks up Rika and Takato, "I'm going take Rika and Takato here and put them back upstairs in their room for now so they can recover."

"Hurry up with that because I'm going to need some help interrogating the three baby level digimon and the Patamon over there," Dingomon said and he turns to look at the Gazimon in his one hand, "Now you are going to hold that new election in twenty minutes from now."

"What are you going to do if I don't," Gazimon snickered, "De-digi-volve me back into the baby level like you did the others, because there is a strict code that Devas can't kill other digimon unless they have no other choice or so I have heard."

"Oh there are much worse things I can think of that I can do with out killing you," Dingomon said, "So don't try my patients you little worm."

"I'm not a worm," Gazimon growled.

"You're right about that," Dingomon said, "You're worse then a worm, your no better then a maggot."

"Dingomon you seem so much different from Terriermon," Henry said.

"That's because when I became a Deva I was thrust into the role of leader with out much of a choice after a while," Dingomon said, "I also realized that I need to be serious at times. Here hold him till I'm done with those digimon over there."

"Alright," Henry said as he takes Gazimon by the ears from Dingomon.

Dingomon seeing the smirk on Gazimon face gets up in his face, "You even try to do anything to my friend here and I'll rip off one of your ears in such a way that the pain will never fully go away," Dingomon said and watches as Gazimon's face turns a pasty white color even though he's covered in fur.

Meanwhile Antylamon walks into the room that Takato and Rika had slept in the night before and sets Rika on one bed and Takato in another bed, "So how much longer will the affects of the pressure point you used on me last," Takato asked.

"Shouldn't be much longer unless…" Antylamon said and trails off.

"Unless what," Takato asked not liking the sound of that.

"Unless I made a mistake and used the wrong pressure point and if I did that you would be permanently paralyzed," Antylamon said.

"What!? You can't be serious," Takato yelled as adrenaline starts flowing through veins and he jumps out of the bed with out realizing it and grabs Antylamon and pulls her face to his, "You better hope that you're wrong."

"Calm down Takato," Antylamon said with a grin, "I just said that so that you would become panicked to the point adrenaline started pumping through your veins and it worked like a charm in neutralizing what I did to you."

"I thought you used a pressure point and as far as I know adrenaline wouldn't neutralize the affects of that," Takato said confused.

"I did but I also injected a little of this stuff in you as well," Antylamon said as she holds up a syringe with a greenish substance in it, "This stuff is harmless to most digimon and humans, it's a chemical that relaxes the muscles completely to where they won't respond to anything you try to tell them to do."

"Uh ok," Takato said not fully understanding what she just said, "So how long is Rika actually going to be out then?"

"For all I know she won't wake up till late tonight or till tomorrow morning," Antylamon said, "As I said getting hit by that attack and then using that ability to heal all of her injuries from it took a lot out of her and she needs time to regain her strength."

Meanwhile back in the lobby, "You're going to tell me what's going on Patamon," Dingomon asked, "Why were you working with these scum?"

"I really didn't have any other choice," the Patamon said.

"Of course you had a choice," Dingomon said.

"Yeah only ones that were worse then this one that I made," the Patamon said lowering his gaze to the ground.

"Why do you say that," Dingomon asked.

"It was that I would do as that Gazimon said or he would have stronger digimon then me hurt and even go as far as kill my friends and family," the Patamon said as tears start falling from his eyes, "I couldn't let that happen because they mean so much to me."

"We will make a judgment on you," Dingomon said.

"Can I see my family before?" the Patamon asked.

"Good luck with that," Botamon said, "Your Vajramon form would have a hard time."

"What do you mean?" Dingomon asked.

"We have a few digimons watching his family," Botamon said.

"It seems that our job is not done," Antylamon said.

"Right," Dingomon said, "But first judgment must be passed on these digimon. You Patamon will clean the remains of the walls on your own and you will make sure the election is fair. If it's not then we will return. You baby level digimons will be give to the Biyomon to pay for what you did to them."

"First, we need to question them about Patamon's loves ones," Antylamon said.

"Right," Dingomon said, "And last the Gazimon." He lifts Gazimon up.

"Like you can do anything to me," Gazimon said.

"We can't but My Lord can," Dingomon said. A portal appears below the Gazimon.

Gazimon looks around to see darkness. He stood on a golden disk. "Guilty one," Gazimon turns to a pair of large red eyes. "You stand on the crest of guilt. It tells me all about you. And you are indeed guilty. You hate the idea of serving another. And you hate humans more. That shall be you punishment."

"What's happening to my body?" Gazimon asked as the color fade from his fur. His face became a single shade of white.

"I'm removing your Gazimon form from you," the voice said. "You will be trapped in an egg formless. Unable to hatch until you bond with a human. At which you will take the form the human truly wishes you to have. Whether you are their partner or not you will be unable to disobey them." Light covers Gazimon and soon a white egg rest where he was.

'Will I even remember who I was when I hatch,' the former Gazimon's mind thinks.

"Of course you will," the voice said, "The punishment would be pointless otherwise."

Meanwhile back at the hotel, "Where are Patamon's loved ones being held at," Dingomon asked.

"They are being held in a building six miles south of this town," Zurumon said.

"The moment they see you two it will already be too late for them," Botamon said, "They have orders to kill all of them if any digimon they don't recognize comes into the area."

"What!? You can't be serious," the Patamon yelled, "I want to go with the two of you to try to help."

"We already told you what you have to do Patamon," Dingomon said, "We'll make sure your loved ones are safe."

"You were found guilty of impersonating a Deva," Antylamon said, "So we can't let you get off easy."

The Patamon glares at them, "If I'm guilty of anything at all it would be wanting to protect my family by doing whatever it was I had too," he yelled as his anger starts to get the better of him, "I really didn't have a choice in this matter as I told you before, if I hadn't done what I did Gazimon would have had those digimon that are holding my family hostage kill them right in front of me while all I would be able to do is watch."

"Those digimon won't even know what is going on till after we have already taken care of them," Dingomon said.

"I want you to give us an exact description of the building and the area around it that they are being held in," Antylamon said as she kneels down in front of Botamon.

"I never have been there," Botamon said, "I have only heard about it and I don't even know what the area looks like. Though I think Zurumon or Kokomon over there might know what it looks like."

"Thanks for letting me know that," Antylamon said as she stands up and walks over to Zurumon and kneels down in front of him now, "I know you heard what I asked Botamon and that is what I want to know about."

"It's been a while since I was last there so it could have changed a bit," Zurumon said.

"Well you can still tell us what you remember it looking like," Antylamon said.

"What is the point of that," the Patamon yelled as he's pacing back and forth, "My family is in trouble and all you can do is talk to those two scum balls."

"Calm down Patamon," Dingomon said, "Antylamon is asking them so we know the area and can get your loved ones back with out any harm to them."

"Last time I was there the bushes would have been up to about your waist," Zurumon said, "The bushes I'm talking about had some kind of blue and green looking berries on them, there were also trees in the area that look like what are called oaks in the real world from what I heard. Now the building in that area that they are being held in looks like it could collapse at any time, I think the only thing keeping it from doing so is all the vines that have grown thickly on some of the sides of the place. Also the building was in a small clearing on the left side of it if I remember right and there is a small pond or lake in the middle of the clearing with fresh water."

"That helps some what," Antylamon said, "Is there anything else you can remember about the building?"

"Well where the windows should be are gaping holes," Zurumon said, "Hmm now that I think about some of the vines that were on it were brown and looked like they had died for some reason. The wood paneling on the house is deteriorating to where if you tap on the wood small chunks of it would fall off to the ground." Zurumon goes into deep thought, "The door is literally falling off the hinges and barely hangs on when open, though it looks like it's in ok shape when closed."

"One last question," Antylamon said, "Are there any other buildings in the area?"

"There is rubble all over the place in some areas around there that look like they may have been buildings at one point or another," Zurumon said, "But the building I mentioned is the only one still standing."

"Thank you for your cooperation," Antylamon said as she stands up.

"From what I heard Gazimon say a while ago is that he was planning on rebuilding one of the buildings and using it as either a jail or a torture chamber of some sort," Kokomon said.

"So I wasn't the only one who heard that rumor," Botamon and Zurumon said at the same time.

"That means we have to expect anything when we go there," Dingomon said, "As I said before we'll get your family and loved ones back safely, right now you have an election to make sure is run fair Patamon."

"I want to go help rescue my family though," the Patamon said.

"Nothing against you, but I think it would be safer for you to stay here," Antylamon said, "We know you aren't a bad digimon and we wouldn't want to see anything happen to you."

The Patamon sighs in defeat, "I guess I have no other choice but to stay here and do what you want me to do," he said, "Because you aren't going to allow me to go with you."

"Let's get going," Dingomon said as he looks at Antylamon.

"Alright let's do this," Antylamon said as she and Dingomon walk out of the hotel to head towards the area that Zurumon described to them.

"I guess I should get to work on getting rid of that rubble," the Patamon sighed.

A few moments later Antylamon walks back into the hotel, "Airdramon where is the Biyomon that was in here earlier," she asked.

Airdramon flies into the room, "Why would it matter to you," he asked.

"I can help and I almost forgot that she got injured with what has been going on," Antylamon said, "I can heal her."

"What about my family," the Patamon asked, "I thought you were going to help them?"

"Hey I will in a few," Antylamon said, "Dingomon is already on his way and I'll catch up with him when I'm done here."

"Fine follow me," Airdramon said.

About ten minutes later Antylamon walks out of the room that she was taken to that the Biyomon is in, "I did what I could," Antylamon said, "I was able to heal most of her injuries but some of the damage to her right leg has been there too long for me to fully get rid of it, though she'll be able to use it normally with how much I was able to heal it. I'm not sure but it might cause her some pain if she uses it too much in a single day."

"What do you mean," Airdramon asked.

"What I mean is her right leg got injured before today to the point that it seemed like she was only able to stand on it with how stiff it was when I looked her over before healing her," Antylamon said, "Well I have to get going to help my partner."

Airdramon is about to say something when a portal appears in front of Antylamon and she jumps through it leaving him standing in the hall by himself.

The Patamon seeing that Antylamon has just left sighs, "Well I guess I should get to work now," he said and walks out the front door and into the real central square and looks at all the rubble, "Great this is going to take a few days if I stay like this." He closes his eyes and his face creases as he concentrates and the symbol of courage appears as his body is surrounded by light and starts changing, as the light dies down in his place stands Baronmon, "This form is much more suitable for this kind of work."

Baronmon looks around at all the rubble as he starts assessing what can be reused and what is completely worthless and starts gathering the rubble into two separate piles. Airdramon flies out of the hotel to check on the progress of the Patamon and sees Baronmon there doing the work instead, "Alright what do you think you're doing," Airdramon said, "A Patamon was told to clean up this mess himself, now where did he go?"

"I know I was told to clean up this mess and that is what I'm doing," Baronmon said.

"I'm not an idiot so don't treat me like one," Airdramon snapped, "Where did the Patamon go?"

"I never said you were an idiot," Baronmon said, "What I mean is I'm the Patamon or was the one you are looking for."

Before Airdramon can say anything else another digimon walks of an alleyway, "I have been here the whole time watching and I saw Patamon stand in one spot for a few minutes concentrating on something," the other digimon said, "Before I knew it a weird symbol appeared and he was surrounded by a reddish light as I watched his form change due to it and when it died down he was standing in the Patamon's place."

"How do I know both of you aren't lying," the Airdramon said.

"Fine I'll just prove it then," Baronmon said as he sets down the rubble he is currently carrying and he gains a look of concentration as he de-digi-volves back into the Patamon and all the symbols of the armor digi-eggs appears on his body for a few moments before fading away, "I digi-volved to that form so I would have an easier time moving the rubble around."

"I see," Airdramon said, "Though why are you putting the stuff into two different piles?"

"I'm doing that because some of the stuff is still useable and can be used to make some of the repairs to that hotel that you and the others live in and own," the Patamon said, "I wanted to try to be helpful with that as well."

A little later Dingomon and Antylamon look down at a small hut with a group of digimons walking around it with about knee high grass to most of them. "This should be easy," Antylamon said.

"Stopping them will be," Dingomon said, "But handing out that many punishments will not."

"Hey Mutt," Dingomon and Antylamon turn around to see a small mouse girl. The white mouse girl smiles as pink armor rest over her body. A sword rises from her back. "You called."

"I did?" Dingomon said, "Mouse Deva."

"Why do you call me that?" the mouse girl said.

"You call me mutt," Dingomon said, "It's a simple mission. There are hostages in that hut."

"I'll do it but you take me to the palace place. You work there right? I want to see all those humans and their digimon fight," the mouse girl said.

"Very well," Dingomon said.

"Alright," the mouse girl said, "Size Resize." The Mouse girl slowly becomes smaller. Then she quickly runs off.

"She is your baby sister," Antylamon said.

"Yes I know that," Dingomon said, "But it's still kind of hard."

"Why would you say that," Antylamon asked.

"You know very well that she wasn't born till fifteen years after we were forced back here," Dingomon said, "And because of that it makes me a little more then thirty years older then she is going by the time that passed in the digital world. About twelve and a half years if you go by the time in the real world."

"I guess I see your point," Antylamon said.

The mouse deva slowly makes her way to the hut using the knee high grass for cover, as she continues heading over there she climbs up the stem of a flower and looks around and spots what looks to be a horse drawn cart, "That may come in handy later on," she said.

"Did you see something over there just now," a digimon asked looking in the direction of the mouse deva who had just dropped back to the ground a moment before, "I think I saw the head of some digimon."

"You probably just saw a normal rat or something like that," another digimon said, "You know that this area is infested with those things."

"That was close," the mouse deva said and hears rustling behind her and turns around to see a mouse from the real world that's a little bit smaller then she is in her current state.

She watches as the mouse scurries away and she comes up to the point where the grass stops about ten feet from the hut, "I'm going to have to be quick about this," she said as she looks around and sees two different digimon coming from opposite directions towards the hut as she moves back into the grass a bit.

"You see anything at all," one asked as they stop just in front of the mouse deva.

"Nope I haven't," the other responded as he glances around and after a few moments his eyes settles on the chest of the digimon in front of him.

"I haven't either," the first one responded and then she slaps him in the face, "You know you are a perverted freak."

"Hmm I think you actually like me," he said.

"Just shut up before I beat you to a bloody pulp," she growled.

'Such hostility between those two,' the mouse deva thinks.

The mouse deva waits a few minutes for the two to finally stop talking and move away before she runs to the side of the hut and pushes a loose board to the side entering the hut.

The mouse deva smile as she crawls through the small hole on the other side, "My brother will be proud," she whispered.

As she comes to the end of the passage she looks for possible ways to continue on and spots a board riddled with holes that she starts climbing up.

She continues climbing up the board and a few later she comes to the top of it and it looks like she can't go any further. She glances around for a moment and sees a board she can walk on and starts making her way left using the holes to make her way to it.

"This is taking a little longer then I thought it would," she said to herself. As she gets to the two by four she climbs a little bit further up and starts walking in the direction it goes. She stops for a moment as she hears voices and finds just a hole in the wall and looks through it to see that she's about chest level high with an Ogremon.

"Here you want something to eat," Ogremon said holding a banana just above a Tokomon. The Tokomon jumps up to grab it only for Ogremon to laugh as he pulls it just out of reach of the Tokomon. The Tokomon watches as Ogremon eats the banana.

"You're mean," the Tokomon cried in a feminine voice, "Eventually you'll end up paying for all the stuff you have done, bubble blast," she yelled launching a few bubbles into Ogremon's face.

"You're going to pay for doing that," Ogremon growled and kicks the Tokomon across the room.

"Hey don't do that," said another voice from the room and the mouse deva can't see the digimon that it belongs to, "The boss told us not to kill any of them."

"I didn't do anything that will kill that thing," Ogremon said, "At worst that thing will be sore for a while."

"I have to move quicker," the mouse deva said as she continues making her way up higher in the hut.

A few moments later she comes to another board full of holes and wastes no time in climbing to the top of it. As she pulls herself onto the top of it she finds herself near the top of the room and looks to see a group of Patamons, Tokomons and a Gatomon with two Ogremons watching them.

"Why the hell am I here," the Gatomon yelled as she struggles to get free from the ropes tying her arms behind her back.

"You were in the house with them and we couldn't leave you to tell others about us taking them," the second Ogremon said.

"Let me go or else," the Gatomon hissed in rage.

"Now why should we do that," Ogremon said.

"Because if you don't when I get free I'll rip both of you to shreds and any other digimon that tries to get in my way," the Gatomon hissed.

"Threaten us again and I'll bash your skull in right now," the second Ogremon growled.

"And you were just telling me not to kill the Tokomon a few minutes ago," Ogremon said.

The mouse deva climbs up on the rafters and gets into position to get ready to jump, instead of jumping straight away she concentrates as she gets ready to use one of her attacks.

"I hope we can knock them off soon," Ogremon said.

"Not until the boss tells us that we can," the second Ogremon said.

"You won't do that to anyone," the Mouse Deva said as she jumps down and starts to return to her actual size, "Deva's Judgment."

Outside, Dingomon and Antylamon nod to each other as they see a pulse come from the deva emblem. They jump and use their attacks on the digimon.

A few moments later, Dingomon and Antylamon drop the baby level digimon on the ground. The mouse Deva smiles, "This was easier than others," the Mouse Deva said.

"Let's take them into the town," Dingomon said.

"Alright," Antylamon said, "Only problem is how are we going to carry all of them?"

"Well I noticed this cart that looks like it's used to carry supplies over here," the mouse deva said as she's standing next to a cart, "Though it looks like it's pulled by horse like digimon."

"That gives me an idea," Dingomon said glances at two of the baby level digimon.

"What are you thinking," Antylamon asked.

"Till we get back to the town and until we can come up with proper punishments for all of them," Dingomon said, "We turn two of these baby level digimon for the time being into ShimaUnimons that have no choice but to listen to what we tell them to do and have them pull the cart with the other baby level digimon in it."

"Like you would find two of us that want to do something like that," two of the baby level digimon said.

"Who said anything about giving any of you a choice in this matter," Dingomon said as he turns to the two of, "For your disrespect you two are the ones to do this."

Antylamon walks over to Dingomon and puts her hand on his shoulder, "Are you sure we should do it this way," she asked, "We could just teleport all of us to the town using our powers."

"That would be easier," Dingomon sighs as he turns to Antylamon, "But you already know what can happen if we use our powers too often, the way I plan to change them taps into the light of digivolution with very little of our deva powers mixed in so they will have to listen to us."

"Alright if that is how you want to do it," Antylamon said.

"Thanks for understanding," Dingomon said as he gains a look of concentration and a moment later the two baby level digimon are surrounded by bright light.

"How long is this going to take," the mouse deva asked.

"You should already know that it doesn't take long at all," Antylamon said.

A few moments later as the light dies down two ShimaUnimons are in the place of the baby level digimon, "The two of you come over here," Dingomon said and the two ShimaUnimons walk over to him without so much as disagreeing, "Alright let's get them hooked up to this thing Antylamon."

"I guess that leaves me with the task of getting the others into the cart," the mouse deva said.

"What about Gazimon," a Tokomon asked, "Won't he do something if he found out and try to harm us again?"

"You won't be bothered by him ever again," Dingomon said as hooks one of the ShimaUnimon to the cart.

Meanwhile back in the town, "This is taking longer then I would have hoped for," the Baronmon muttered under his breath, "At least I'm making good progress."

"What's going on over here," Salamon asked from on top a pile of rubble.

Baronmon turns around to see Salamon on top of the rubble, "Hey you shouldn't be up there it isn't safe," Baronmon yelled, "You could get hurt."

"Oh sorry mister," Salamon said as he starts moving to get off the pile only to slip and fall.

"I have to help him," Baronmon said as he throws down the debris he's carrying and runs towards Salamon as his body is surrounded by a yellowish glow and his speed nearly triples. A few moments later as the light dies down a Pegasusmon is seen and catches Salamon on his back before he could hit the ground and get seriously hurt.

"Thanks," Salamon said as Pegasusmon brings him to the ground safely, "How did you do that?"

"That is one thing I won't tell anyone," the Pegasusmon said, "Now run along and please stay out of this area for the time being, I don't want to see you or anyone else get hurt."

"Oh ok," Salamon said, "Well thanks again and sorry if I got in your way or anything."

"Don't worry about it," the Pegasusmon said as he watches Salamon leave.

"Hey can I talk to you for a moment," Airdramon said as he flies into the area.

"Please don't accuse me of not being the one told to do this again," the Pegasusmon said, "I'm doing what I can to this place cleaned up and had to do something really quick."

"Whoa calm down will you," Airdramon said as he looks at the Pegasusmon, "I wasn't going to accuse you of anything like that; I just came to ask you if you wanted to take a short break and get something to eat. I watched you save Salamon from one of the higher floors from the hotel."

"Actually I could use a break and something to eat," the Pegasusmon said, "They never said I couldn't take breaks at any point and get something to eat."

"That is true," Airdramon said, "With what you've done I'm sure that they won't object."

"I need to keep my strength up," Pegasusmon said.

Meanwhile Guilmon looks at Renamon resting on the bed. "Are you okay?" Guilmon asked.

"I am," the fox digimon said, "The pain is gone but I can still feel Rika. She is alright but hurt. Where are our children?"

"The kids are being watch by some gatomons," Guilmon said, "It said you got sleepy."

"That's good," Renamon said, "I hope they aren't causing too much trouble."

"What are they doing," Reremon asked looking at Kari.

"They are about to fight," Kari said, "You see the one with red hair."

"Like Humom," Reremon said.

"Why are they fighting?" Jyarimon asked.

"Because they are forced too," Reremon said, "That Lord Holy Angemon is the one causing them too."

"Get real sister. Why would a vaccine digimon do that? And how can you tell it is a Lord Holy Angemon?" Jyarimon asked.

"It's true," Kari said, "That Lord Holy Angemon is forcing them to fight. How did you know that?"

"I could just tell," Reremon said.

"You are just weird sis," Jyarimon said.

"I have a question for you Reremon," Patamon said, "I want to see if you can tell me what my past is?"

"Why would you want to know that when you already know," Reremon asked.

"I just want to see how right you are," Patamon said, "I don't mean you are lying or anything like that, I'm just curious to see how much you can tell me with out me saying anything about it."

"You're probably just wasting your time Patamon," Jyarimon said.

"Hmm there is so much to your life that I'm not sure where to start," Reremon said.

"Yeah right you more then likely don't know anything," Jyarimon said.

"You can start from the beginning and up to where Gatomon and Kari joined the team," Patamon said.

"That makes it a little easier," Reremon said.

"What is up with all of you believing her like this," Jyarimon muttered.

"Well the first time you met TK you were still a Tokomon and he was around eight years old and the first fight all seven of you had was against a Kuwagamon," Reremon said, "After all of you thought you had defeated him, he reappeared and caused the cliff you were on to collapse and go into the river below you."

"I'm going somewhere else," Jyarimon said, "I don't feel like listening to her go on about things she doesn't even know about."

"After that Gomamon used his marching fishes attack to make a living raft for all fourteen of you and when Kuwagamon fell into the water all of you had to hold on really tight," Reremon said, "Later all of you ran into a Shellmon and only Agumon was able to fight and digivolve at the time, that was the first time he did so. Then later that night it was Gabumon's turn when TK was knocked into the water and Matt had to save him and brought him back to the small island that you were on that had been originally attached to the shore, Seadramon wasn't very bright either. Next was Biyomon that digi-volved when a Meramon who was being controlled by some kind of black gear attacked a village full of Yokomons while all of you were there and she used her attack to finally cause the black gear to fly out of his body and explode into data."

"Wow it sounds like all of you went through a lot in the first week," Kari said.

"Actually that was just the first two days," Patamon said, "The digital world is a very dangerous place for anyone at times. I actually wanted you to tell me what happened to mainly me and TK."

"Oh ok," Reremon said, "About a month later you and TK got separated from all of the others when Devimon set a trap for all of you were there was a fake house with fake food and all and thanks to Tai's digi-vice and Leomon you were able to escape but were sent to different parts of file island that had been separated due to Devimon. Later the next day you and TK were talking after you started crying about wanting to digi-volve since everyone else's digimon had already made it to champion by then. After talking to TK for a bit the two of you wondered into primary village of the sector of the digital world you were in, you got into a fight with the caretaker Elecmon a little later and almost digi-volved, but TK stopped you from doing so and instead you two had a tug of war contest and you won."

"Go on," Patamon said.

Reremon looks into Patamon's eyes, "I'll just forget the rest and tell you what you really want to know if I know," Reremon said, "Which happens to be when you first met Gatomon you couldn't help to find her beautiful and was wondering why she was working for the side of darkness. That is the main reason you didn't digi-volve then because you didn't want to hurt her."

"Why didn't you say anything sooner Patamon," Gatomon asked.

Reremon turns on Gatomon, "Like you're any better in this case," Reremon said, "You didn't attack Patamon for similar reasons, when you smacked him away from the gate you had the perfect chance to delete him with your Lightning Paw attack, but you couldn't bring yourself to do it and when you first saw his champion form the first thought to pop in your mind after the surprise of him deleting Phantomon is that he's cute."

"If I had used my Lightning Paw attack at that time I would have deleted Demi-Devimon who I worked with at the time," Gatomon said.

"You couldn't have cared less about that little creep," Reremon said, "If Patamon hadn't been on him you would have deleted him at the last second before the gate closed."

"And how would you know any of this is true," Gatomon said.

"I don't know how, but I can it in your heart I guess," Reremon said.

Veemon having heard most of the conversation, "So I really never had a chance with you Gatomon," he said.

"Actually sorry to burst your bubble Veemon, but your feelings for Gatomon were more of Davis' feelings for Kari carrying over to you making you think you cared for Gatomon when you actually don't in that way," Reremon said.

"What do you mean," Veemon asked, "My feelings for Gatomon are my own."

"Then tell me this," Reremon asked, "When Davis isn't around Kari does Gatomon even cross your mind at all?"

Veemon opens his mouth to answer and closes it instead and thinks for a few minutes, "I'm not actually sure," he said.

Mary walks over to the group a little nervously, "Um is there is anything you can tell me about who I am," Mary asked.

"Let me see," Reremon said as she looks at Mary for a few minutes and the responds, "Sorry all I can really see with you is what you already currently know and the rest is blurred to the point I don't know what is happening."

"Oh," Mary said.

"Looks like she knows what we know," Tai said.

Meanwhile back in the hotel, "That was a good meal," the Patamon said, "Well I should get back to work doing some of the stuff I was told to do by the two devas that were here earlier."

"So what are you planning to do at the moment," the Biyomon asked.

"I got a lot of the rubble moved into two different piles," the Patamon said, "I'm probably going to do the election for the new mayor soon."

"That would be a good idea," the Biyomon said and turns to Airdramon, "You know Airdramon you should try running for mayor yourself, I think you would do a good job if you become the mayor here."

"I'll think about it," Airdramon said.

"Just do it will you," the Biyomon said, "Most of the towns people like you and last time would have voted for you if you had run for the position."

"Um can one of you have someone tell the town's people to gather in the town square so I can get it started and see who wants to run for mayor as well," the Patamon asked.

"Sure give me a few minutes to have someone go do that," the Biyomon said.

"Alright thanks for the help," the Patamon said as he's about to walk out of the dinning room and head back to the town square and stops, "Oh I just had an idea, do you have any kind of paint or other chemical that is only seeable in certain light?"

"I'm pretty sure we do," Airdramon said, "Why do you ask?"

"Well I was thinking that I might use something like that to put on the stuff I'm going to use for the voting," the Patamon said, "I need to do something to make sure none one in the town tries to cheat by voting more then once."

"Now that isn't a bad idea at all," the Biyomon said, "It will make the voting a lot fairer for everyone."

"That's the general idea," the Patamon said as he turns to walk out the door, "I need to start getting things set up so if you find something like that can you bring it out to me?"

"Yeah we could do that," Airdramon said and turns to the Biyomon and sees a pleading look in her eyes and rolls his own, "Alright fine I'll run for mayor if you just stop bugging me about it."

The Patamon heads outside and looks around at what he could use for the voting and decides that he can use some of the rubble for it, "Hmm how can I set this up to work exactly," he thinks out loud.

Airdramon watches as the Biyomon runs off, "If I see those two devas again I'm going to have to thank them for helping her," he said with a smile.

"So what exactly is going on," Andrew asked, "I'm a little confused."

"Yeah I want to know as well," Suzy said, "And where is Lopmon and Terriermon?"

"They decided they wanted to spend a little time together by themselves today," Henry said, "After what happened earlier this morning I realized we weren't going to head to that place today."

"I'm just glad I'm not having to wear that annoying dog costume anymore," Kazu said, "Man I hated sleeping in that cage. Suzy if you ever do anything like that again to me like you did last night you'll regret it."

"You must really be an idiot Kazu," Henry growled as he turns to him.

"Keep complaining human and I'll have you put back into a costume like you were wearing before," Airdramon said with a smirk, "But this time I'll make sure they use one of the special ones that will actually turn you into a dog for a week if you have it on long enough."

"That isn't possible," Kazu yelled.

"Want to try me human," Airdramon said.

"I think you should take him seriously Kazu," Andrew said, "With how Lord Holy Angemon has changed some of us and how some of your friends are able to bio-merge with their digimon I think anything is possible in the digital world."

"Where are Takato and Rika," Ryo asked noticing that everyone else except them is there.

"Takato said that Rika ended up getting hurt," Dorumon said, "And he is keeping an eye on her. He won't even tell me what happened to her."

"It's probably better that you didn't know," Henry said turning away from the others.

"Wait do you know something about what happened Henry," Monodramon asked.

"I do but I'm not going to go into it," Henry said.

"Rika is our friend as well," Ryo said.

"Well what happened has already been taken care of and none of you should worry about it," Henry said, "Rika will be fine as well, she just needs some time to regain her strength."

Meanwhile with the Biyomon, "I need three of you to tell the towns people to gather in the town square for a new election," she said.

"Don't you usually have a certain Woodmon do stuff like this," a Floramon asked.

"Yes I normally do," the Biyomon said as a tear falls from her eyes, "But because of what happened earlier he's gone and I'm lucky I didn't end up with the same fate."

"That is just horrible," another biyomon said.

"Yes it is," the Biyomon said, "But we have to let others know about the election that is going to be happening soon, I would let some know myself but I have a few things to do still at the moment."

"Alright the three of us will go," three digimon said as they step forward.

"Thanks," the Biyomon said, "Now I need some of the rest of you to help me find some kind of chemical that is only noticeable with certain kinds of light, what I mean is in normal light it has no color."

A little later in the town square the Patamon stands there with most of the preparations done, "Now where are they with the stuff I asked them to find," he asked himself.

"Hey Patamon we found some stuff for you to use," Airdramon said flying over to him.

"That's good," the Patamon said and looks into a bucket to see a clear liquid, "This stuff looks clear but does it change color at all in other lights?"

"Yeah it does," the Biyomon said as she grabs a medium sized rock and drops it in the stuff and then uses a pair of tongs to pull it out a moment later and shines a special light on it and the gray rock turns a bluish-green color, "This is the only color stuff we could find to use."

"That will do great," the Patamon said, "Only problem is what will happen when the digimon is already a bluish-green color?"

"No need to worry about that," the Biyomon said as she pulls out a bluish-green object and shines the light on it and it doesn't change color at all and drops the item in the same liquid as the rock before it and pulls it out and shines the light on it again and it turns a blood red color, "This is why I said there was no need to worry about it."

"It looks like it's covered in fresh blood now," the Patamon said, "And with the way it's dripping at the moment it makes the illusion even realer."

"That is just disturbing looking at that," Airdramon said, "Let's just get the rest of the stuff into the liquid and the digimon can pull them out, it won't work right if the stuff dries before they grab them."

"Alright let's do this," the Patamon said, "Also try to make sure they are close enough to the same size and weight."

About half an hour later the Patamon watches as digimon start filling the town square, "What is this about a new election," one of them asked.

The Patamon thinks for a moment of what to tell them and something comes to him, "Gazimon that was the last mayor decided to abandon this place and I'm not sure where he has gone," he said, "So there is being a new election held right now."

"How do you know Gazimon won't be back," someone from the crowed yelled.

"Yeah and why should we trust you with you being a rookie and the last rookie we had as a mayor was completely power crazed."

"I really don't care who becomes mayor," the Patamon said as he looks around at all the digimon in the area, "All I care about is the election being fair."

"How can we trust you to make it fair," another digimon yelled, "The Gazimon said he would make the election fair and cheated by disqualifying the others."

"Fine then I guess I have no other choice," the Patamon said getting frustrated and concentrates as a white light surrounds him and when the light dies down most of the crowd starts laughing at him, "What's so funny?"

"You are," most of the crowd yelled, "You just look so pathetic like that."

He turns and as he does so he sees his reflection in some glass of a window and sweat drops as he sees a fish with arms and boxing gloves looking back at him, "Oops wrong form," the Manbomon said nervously.

"What do you mean," someone asked.

Before anyone could say anything Manbomon is surrounded by a bright yellowish almost golden light for a few minutes causing everyone else to have to cover their eyes, as the light dies down and they can see again standing in Manbomon's place is Pegasusmon. "This is much better," the Pegasusmon said.

"How did you do that," some of the crowd yelled, "I didn't think it was possible for a digimon to have more then one champion form.

"I'm not going to explain this," the Pegasusmon said, "It would take too long and besides I'm not a champion but an armor form as some call it, though I am as strong as a champion at least."

"Wait from what I heard you had to be a partner digimon to become more then one armor form," a Lynxmon yelled.

"Normally yes but in my case it's different," the Pegasusmon said, "And I'm not going to say why." He looks around at the crowd, "Now I already know one of the digimon that is going to be running for mayor, but I still need at least one more that wants to become mayor and I think a max of four candidates would be a good number."

The crowd starts talking between themselves and after a few minutes three digimon walk up to the Pegasusmon and one happens to be the same Lynxmon that asked the question a few minutes ago. The other two are a Meramon and Musyamon, "So you three are the others that want to run for mayor," the Pegasusmon asked.

"That would be right," Musyamon said looking towards the crowd, "I'm pretty sure all of us agree that the first thing that will happen when any of us become mayor is that everything that Gazimon did would be gotten rid of." He turns back to the other two next to him, "Let the best Mon win my friends, now who is the other one you were talking about?"

"Who do you think," Airdramon said flying up to the group.

"Figures it would be you," Lynxmon said with a smirk, "Either you decided that you want to be mayor or that Biyomon sister of yours was bugging you to the point where you finally agreed just so she would stop annoying you with it."

"Alright lets get this started," the Pegasusmon said, "There are four booths and each one represents one of these four here, it depends which one they choose that determines which on represents them. Also to make things fair every one will only be allowed to vote once."

"How would you be able to tell if some one decides to try to vote more then once," a Garurumon in the crowd yelled that is about half the size of Matt's partner Garurumon.

"I already have that figured out," the Pegasusmon said looking at the Garurumon, "I hope you aren't thinking of doing something like that."

"I was just asking is all," the Garuruamon said, "I don't do things like that."

Meanwhile Henry watches what is going on behind the crowd when a digimon walks out of the alleyway spots him and walks over to him, "Hmm interesting," a Raptordramon said looking Henry over, "Mind if I talk to you for a few minutes alone?"

"What do you even want with me," Henry said looking Raptordramon square in the eyes.

"I just want to talk is all," Raptordramon said, "I'm not going to do anything that will cause you any harm, I'm just curious about a few things is all."

"Then why don't you ask them right here," Henry said.

"Because I'm not sure if you'll be comfortable with answering them with this many digimon around," Raptordramon said, "I'm not sure if you'll find them a little personal or not."

"Fine let's go," Henry said as he heads back towards the hotel and leads Raptordramon into an empty room, "What is it you wanted?"

"I was wondering why you're wearing one of those collars for the first thing," Raptordramon said.

"I was tricked by one of Lord Holy Angemon's workers into putting the thing on," Henry said a little annoyed, "I figured I would be able to take it off later and found out I can't."

"I see," Raptordramon said as he walks around Henry examining him, "Another thing I want to know is that you weren't originally like this were you and you have always been male right?"

"I have always been a guy," Henry said, "No I haven't been like this until recently and will you stop circling me like that!"

"Sorry force of habit," Raptordramon said, "So you came here from a place owned by a Lord Holy Angemon?"

"What does it matter to you if I did," Henry said glaring at Raptordramon.

Raptordramon just laughs, "As I said before I'm not going to harm you," he said, "And that look may work on some people and digimon but it won't work on me. I heard that a group with two humans and mostly digimon were coming this way to help at a farm and had two creatures that weren't digimon that look similar to Gryphonmons."

"I'm one of the ones you heard about more then likely," Henry said, "Now what brings you here and why talk to me?"

"The main reason I came is because I got a message that there is a new election for mayor being held," Raptordramon said, "I also figured you were one of the ones I heard about, the other reason I came is because I wanted to meet the ones who will be helping me at my farm as the job you took says you would."

"Wait you're the digimon that requested the help," Henry asked looking him over, "I figured you would have more of a humanoid shape to you."

"Actually my ultimate form is humanoid," Raptordramon said, "It's just that when I come here I regress to my champion form because most everyone here is uneasy around ultimate level digimon, it doesn't help how a group of ultimate level digimon tried to level this place about forty years ago and lost some decent digimon then, if it wasn't for a few Liomons taking them out by hitting their weak spots with their attacks."

"Don't you mean to say Leomon," Henry asked.

"No Leomons and Liomons are completely different digimon," Raptordramon said, "Leomons are humanoid while Liomons look like the actual animals called lions in the real world."

"Why did they go up against ultimate level digimon though," Henry asked.

"There is something about their species that make them want to take on opponents that are a lot stronger then they are," Raptordramon said, "I actually seen one take on a mega level digimon, though he ended up getting deleted in the end."

"So the mega won," Henry said shaking his head, "Seems kind of a waste of time to me."

"Actually the mega wasn't any better off," Raptordramon said, "It only lasted about two or three hours after the fight before bursting into data as well."

"A champion level digimon did that to a mega," Henry asked surprised.

"Well Liomon's do use their attacks on the weak points of the digimon they are facing and if enough are hit then they will die after a while no matter what they do," Raptordramon said, "Well I should go back outside and vote before they end the election so I'll talk to you more later and your friends as well."

"Uh ok," Henry said as he follows Raptordramon out of the room.

Kazu grins as he sees Henry walking out of the room with Raptordramon, "I wonder what the others will think when I tell them about this," Kazu said.

Before Henry can react, Raptordramon has Kazu by the throat, "Before you even say any more I already have a wife and children," Raptordramon growled as he's choking Kazu, "You even say anything like what you were thinking to anyone and I'll literally tear you to shreds, understand human."

Kazu nods as he struggles to pull Raptordramon's claw off his throat and is dropped to the floor and he starts gasping for air.

"If I weren't stuck walking on all fours I would have done that to him at least five times already," Henry muttered.

"So you aren't the kind of person to take that kind of crap from anyone either," Raptordramon said.

"No he's just an annoying pest most of the time," Henry said, "I'm surprised he even became a tamer with how he acts most of the time."

"I feel sorry for the digimon that is his partner then," Raptordramon said, "With how I have seen him act so far I would have killed him eventually if I had become his partner."

"Well his digimon is a Guardromon," Henry said.

"That explains a lot," Raptordramon said, "Those digimon don't get annoyed by anything due to the fact they are robots."

As they walk outside of the hotel and into the main square Henry spots the Pegasusmon confronting another digimon, "Uh you go vote like you were going to," Henry said, "I'm curious about what is going on over there."

"Alright later then," Raptordramon said as he goes over to vote and asks a few of the others who are running and which booth represents who.

As Henry gets closer he hears the Pegasusmon saying, "I need you to hold out both your hands my kind sir, some of the others here are telling me you already voted and that you were trying to vote again."

"That isn't true," a bluish-green digimon said that looks similar to a Veemon said and has two horns just above his eyes.

"Then hold out your hands for a moment so I can see who's telling the truth," The Pegasusmon said, "I'm not saying any of you are lying but I want to know who I can trust."

"Fine," the digimon said as he sticks out his hands.

The Pegasusmon nods his head and a Floramon standing next to him pulls out special flashlight and shines it on the three horned Veemon's right hand for nothing to happen, "See I told you I wasn't lying," he said.

"We only looked at one hand not both so I can't be sure just yet," the Pegasusmon said and watches the light hits his right hand and about up to his elbow turns a blood red color.

"What the hell did you do to me," the three horned Veemon yelled as he starts freaking out.

"Calm down you are perfectly fine," the Pegasusmon said and gets closer to him and lowers his voice to a whisper, "I had some friends give me a chemical that changes color in a certain kind of light and normally it's a bluish-green color except when the thing it gets on is already that color then it turns a blood red color. Now go behave or go home before I have someone take you back to your home and make it so you can't leave till this is over with."

"What would you do if I were to tell others about this," the three horned Veemon said.

"I really don't care if you tell others," the Pegasusmon said, "It will just make the others more discouraged to cheat since they will know that I'll be able to tell if they have voted already or not."

A little later at the outskirts of town, Antylamon nods as a patamon smile hearing the other Patamon is safe.

"What are we going to do with all this baby level digimons?" Dingomon asked.

"Find good foster parents for them," the mouse deva said, "Don't forget you promise, Dingomon."

"They're just about to announce the new mayor," A Bakemon said coming up out of the ground.

"That's a good thing," Antylamon said, "Patamon is doing what we told him to do."

"I arrived a little late to the election and I didn't see any Patamon there," the Bakemon said, "I saw a few of the people from the hotel and a Pegasusmon running things."

"Are you sure about this," Dingomon asked looking at the Bakemon.

"Yes I'm sure," the Bakemon said and gulped from the look he's getting from Dingomon.

"Dingomon calm down," Antylamon said, "I'm sure there is a logical explanation to what is happening."

"I know what is going on," a Tokomon said as she looks up at Dingomon, "From what I was told he somehow gained the ability to armor digi-volve to multiple different forms."

"That would make sense because one of the armor forms a Patamon can take is Pegasusmon," Antylamon said, "So he could have decided to take that form to make it so the other digimon here would show him some respect."

"It's a possibility," Dingomon said, "Though we should check it out anyways."

"Is there anything else that you can tell us Bakemon," Antylamon asked.

"Well I heard that some Veemon that looks different then other Veemons in some ways was telling others that Pegasusmon had put some kind of chemical on the stuff used for voting to make sure no one could vote more then once," the Bakemon said, "That sounded like a good idea to me when I heard about it, though from what I also heard is that Veemon was really pissed off about it." The Bakemon is about to leave and stops, "Oh yeah I heard that the color that the chemical creates is only viewable in a certain light and is a bluish-green color, unless the color of the digimon is bluish-green already then it becomes a blood red color."

"Come on let's go check this out," Dingomon said, "If that Pegasusmon is the same Patamon we told to do that then I can understand why he needed a little help with this in his current form, but if it isn't him then his punishment is going to be a lot worse then it would have been."

"Keep your cool Dingomon," Antylamon said, "Patamon didn't seem the kind of digimon that would ditch what he has to do and leave it for someone else, and he truly seemed upset about having to do some of the things he was forced to do."

They walk into the center of the town. The crowd looks at a stage with the Pegasusmon on it. "Alright," the Pegasusmon said, "The new mayor is Airdramon."

The crowd cheers as Airdramon flies on the stage, "I thank you for this."

Dingomon watch the Pegasusmon as he steps off the stage. The Pegasusmon rush to him as he changes into Patamon. "Did you get them?" he asked.

"They are safe," Dingomon said, "You seem busy."

"Those stones were heavy," the Patamon said. He smiles at the other patamons and low level digimon huddled with them.

"We must go," Dingomon said.

"Before we go we have to hand out the punishments to the baby level digimon if you didn't remember," Antylamon said as she goes over and have them come out the cart.

"Hmm something isn't adding up," Dingmon said as he does a quick glance at all the baby level digimon, "There seems to be two less then there should be."

"Remember you changed two of them into the Shimaunimon's that were pulling the cart," Antylamon said.

"Yes I remember that," Dingomon said as he looks at them, "I added them in and it still leaves two unaccounted for."

"Hey what do you think you are doing," the mouse deva asked as she spots a female Agumon in the process of climbing into the cart.

"I'm just checking something," the Agumon said as she turns to the mouse deva.

"Well there is nothing in there at the moment," the mouse deva said, "All that had been in there was baby level digimon mainly and a few of the tokomons and patamons as well."

"Well no one is perfect and I think there is something in here," the Agumon said as she climbs the rest of the way in, 'In fact I know there are two certain digimon in here that are in major trouble.'

"Fine do what you want to," the mouse deva said.

"Do you think that anyone realizes we're still in here," a Koromon whispered just loud enough for another Koromon right next to him could hear.

"I don't think so," the other Koromon whispered as he turns to the one next to him, "It seems like it was a good idea to hide under the hay in here."

"I'm still a little confused as to how we managed to digi-volve to this level when the others with us couldn't," the first Koromon said.

"I don't know eith…ah let go of me," the second Koromon yelled as his ears are grabbed and he's yanked out of the straw and before the other one can react the same thing happens to him as well.

"You two are in major trouble," the Agumon growled and the two Koromons seeing who it is become paler then a bakemon, "You two are leaving this cart now." She then proceeds to hurl both of the Koromon out of the cart before jumping out of it herself.

"Ok what is going on," Dingomon asked as one of the Koromon is resting in his arm after hitting him in the chest.

"She's trying to kill us," one of the Koromon cried in fear.

"Alright hold it where you are and explain yourself and why they are saying this," Dingomon said, "And you two will also tell me how you managed to digi-volve we had completely taken away that ability for the next few months when we forced you to de-digivolve."

"Those two have been delinquents since a few months after they hatched," the Agumon said her tone laced with anger, "And death is one of the last things they have to worry about, if they force me to then death is what they will be wishing for when I'm through with them."

"We aren't letting you take them anywhere till you tell us exactly who you are and how you know them so well," the mouse deva said.

"I know those two little brats so well because I'm their mother," the Agumon growled as she walks toward them, "The first thing they are going to do when I get them home is fix the part of the house they destroyed when they left a few months ago."

Dingomon turns his attention to the Koromon in his arm and raises him to his eye level, "Now tell me the truth, is what this Agumon saying true," he asked as he gives the Koromon a glare that causes him to shudder in more fear then he's ever felt before in his entire life.

"Y-y-yes i-i-i-it's t-t-t-true," the Koromon stuttered.

"Then that settles this matter for those two," Antylamon said as she turns to the Agumon, "Since they are your children you have say over what happens to them, now do you think you can take care of finding suitable punishments for the others for us as well, we do have to get going."

"I think I could do that I guess," the Agumon said.

"Is there anyway I can repay you for saving them?" the Patamon asked.

"This is our job," Dingomon said as he fades from sight.

A little later, Henry watches as Terriermon, Lopmon and a digimon with Teriermon's shape and Lopmon's pink markings walks towards him, "Hey Terriermon," Henry said, "Who's the new digimon."

"I'm Terriermon's little sister," the digimon said, "I'm Susie."

"Well it's nice to meet you," Henry said as he looks towards Terriermon for a moment.

"It's a long story Henry," Terriermon said, "I'll try to explain it later."

"So has Terriermon told you about being…" Henry started to ask.

"Of course he has," Susie said looking a little perturbed, "I'm one as well and normally we don't discuss or tell that to others unless we have to."

"Oh great here we go again," Terriermon muttered.

"Terriermon knows that it's not a good idea to let others know about that," Susie said turning back to Henry as she lowers her voice, "Especially with how a lot of digimon don't trust the devas."

"That wasn't…" Henry said only to get cut off again.

"Though I talked Terriermon into taking me to that palace he has been working at for a while now to meet another Terriermon that can bio-merge with his tamer so I can tell him that my big brother is better then him," Susie said.

"This might last a few hours," Terriermon said, "Though if we wait for the right moment we can sneak out of here with out her noticing."

"That Terriermon thinks he's all that just because he can go to the mega level and was able to hold his own with the Sovereign," Susie said, "Well I'm going to have my brother show him who is the better Terriermon."

Henry starts making his way to the other side of the room with out Susie noticing and grabs the doorknob and leaves the room a few moments later, "What is up with her Terriermon," Henry asked after pushing the door close, "Haven't you told her that you're my partner?"

"I have tried on numerous occasions and each time I even mention even the slightest about that she starts blabbering on and on about it," Terriermon said, "She thinks that a partnered digimon isn't anywhere as strong as a non partnered digimon."

"How long does she usually go on about it," Henry asked.

"It depends on how long it takes Susie to realize no one is in the room to listen to her," Terriermon said, "One time she was going on about it for almost an entire day, I left to do some things and came back only to find her still going on about it."

"Sounds like to me that she might be obsessed or something like that with the you that is my partner," Henry said.

"I hope not," Terriermon groaned while shaking his head.

Meanwhile back in the palace with the digi-destined, Guilmon, Renamon and their children, "I have a fight today and I still can't leave this area," Sora said, "None of my digimon have really had anything to eat today."

A moment later Mary walks into the room with her fur dripping wet, "What happened to you Mary," Tai asked.

"The ice finally melted on the ground and I slipped because of it," Mary said and shakes herself dry getting a lot of the others in the room wet.

"Hey I already had a shower today," Tai complained.

Patamon sits off to the side thinking about some things, "Hey Patamon are you feeling ok," Gatomon asked, "You seem very quiet all of a sudden."

"Huh, oh I'm fine," Patamon said, "Just thinking about Tai's reaction earlier to whatever Matt was thinking is all."

"Oh ok," Gatomon said, "Do you even ask Tai what those thoughts were about?"

"I didn't think about that," Patamon said as he looks up at Gatomon's face and smiles as he continues thinking about Tai's reaction and then TK's comment that she made right after pops in his head again and his smile turns into a scowl.

"Something wrong Pata," Gatomon asked.

"Let's just say Matt is going to need see a doctor after I get through with him," Patamon said.

"Why is that," Gatomon asked a little bewildered with Patamon's sudden change in attitude.

"Because he's no better then Gabumon is," Patamon said as he looks Gatomon in the eye, "Remember Kari had asked you to stand next to him to see how tall he actually is now, well after Tai made that comment TK said something about Matt being in some ways worse then Gabumon is. I wasn't looking in that direction at the time but I heard her say something about Matt with out his being just a little above chest height with you."

Patamon and Gatomon are distracted from their conversation as they hear a knock on the door to the room and a moment later Maria walks in followed by Tyrannomon, "I came to check on the rest of the gatomons that were still hurt," she said, "Most if not all the rest of them should be healed by now."

"That's a good thing," Davis said with a slightly whiny pitch to her voice.

"Except you of course since you haven't really had any time to heal yet," Maria said turning to Davis.

"Uh can you look at Veemon while you're here," Mary asked.

"I can do that even though I don't know why you want me to," Maria said.

"Veemon got hit by a bolt of lightning last night," Kari said.

"That's why it isn't a good idea to be outside in those kinds of storms," Maria said.

"Veemon wasn't outside though," Mary said, "A bolt of lightning came through the window and he had happened to be the closest at the time and it hit him, it would have hit Reremon if I hadn't grabbed her out of the way at the last second."

"Reremon," Maria asked, "Who is that?"

"That is Renamon and Guilmon's daughter," Matt said.

"About time you got back Tyrannomon," Tai said.

"I wanted to come back last night and I didn't care if it was raining," Tyrannomon said, "I would have been back but they wouldn't let me leave after the rain started."

"With how badly it was storming anything could have happened to you," Maria said, "The temperature dropped drastically at some point last night and you could have ended as a block of ice."

"Maria does make a good point Tyrannomon," Tai said, "We wouldn't want that to happen to you."

"Great now I have to be stuck in the same room as him for a bit," Crystal Agumon muttered.

"Just shut it garbage breath," Tyrannomon said.

"So where is Kara at I want to check her out first," Maria said and see the look in Mary's eyes, "After I look at Veemon of course."

"I think she's still in Takato's room at the moment," Tai said, "She seems to be more comfortable being around Renamon and Guilmon."

"So where is Veemon right now," Maria asked.

"Veemon's in my room currently," Kari said, "After we woke up I put in him in there."

"He's been in and out of it today," Mary said, "At times he seems perfectly fine while other times he has been acting really strange."

"I can't wait to get this cast off," Clawz cheered.

"You wait until after Veemon," Mary said.

"I just want this cast off," Clawz said, "Look at Ice." She points at Ice who was jumping up to grab Gaotmon's tail but Gatomon moves her tail too fast.

"You can play with my tail," Mary said.

"I don't want to play with a tail," Clawz yelled.

"Then why did you tell me to look at Ice?" Mary asked.

"I want to move with out someone coming up and stopping me," Clawz said.

"Getty up," Reremon cheered as she rides on the back of a gatomon that runs past them on all four.

"So take me to Veemon so I can look at him," Maria said.

"He's right in this room," Kari said as she opens the door to her bedroom and they see Veemon just sitting over on the floor staring off into space, "Hey Veemon Maria is here to look at you."

"Ok," Veemon said as he really isn't paying attention.

"Is this what you mean that he's been acting a little strange," Maria asked, "It just seems like he's deep in thought and maybe just a little depressed."

"No this isn't what I we were talking about," Kari said, "A little earlier he was acting all paranoid and mumbling to the point he seemed like he went crazy."

"I see," Maria said, "It's a good thing I brought quite a few things with me so I can easily see what's wrong with him." Maria walks over to Veemon and kneels down in front of him, "So how are you feeling?"

"How you think I feel after getting hit with a bolt of lightning last night," Veemon snapped, "My body hurts like hell and I have had a massive headache most of the day," he said and starts spouting gibberish without warning.

Maria turns back to Kari and Mary, "This is what you mean by random things," Maria asked and gets a nod from both of them and turns back to watch as Veemon tries scoot away in a paranoid fashion.

"Veemon seems fine one moment and the next he's doing this," Mary said, "So what's wrong with him?"

Maria pulls out a small flashlight and shines it one of Veemon's eyes and then the other, "It looks like he has a concussion," Maria said, "Though I can't tell how severe it is at the moment. Did he hit his head recently?"

"Veemon was thrown back into a wall after the lightning hit him," Mary said, "I'm not sure how hard he hit the wall though."

"The rest of us were busy looking for something to keep the rain and wind from getting in after the lightning shattered the window," Kari said, "I'm not sure how hard he hit the wall either."

"All I can really do at the moment is give you this for the burns he has," Maria said as she pulls a tube with cream in it out of her bag, "Later you will want to bring him by the nurses' place to get properly looked at to find out the full extent of his head injury."

"Couldn't you just take Veemon with you if you think he's that bad," Mary asked.

"Normally I would but I have quite a few other rooms to stop by as well," Maria said, "What's really sad is more injuries are happen outside the arena and training areas than in them."

"I thought one of the rules was we aren't allowed to fight anywhere other then the arena or training areas," Kari asked.

"Its supposed to be," Maria said, "Though the only time it is enforced most of the time is when any partnered digimon attacks the workers. When it's two humans having their digimon fight the workers just watch and don't stop them until most of them have really bad injuries or sometimes inflict the bad injuries on the partnered digimon themselves."

"That's just wrong," Kari said, "Though I'll bring Veemon by the nurses' place later on."

"I'm perfectly fine so why would I need to go there," Veemon said and looks around to see both Mary and Kari standing almost right next to him, "Huh when did you two come over here and stand next to me?"

"About three minutes ago," Mary said, "I keep trying to tell you that you have been acting strange every now and then but you refuse to believe me."

"Mary is telling the truth Veemon," Kari said kneeling down next to him to look him in the eyes, "Maria says that you have a concussion and she isn't sure how bad it is at the moment."

"Are you done looking at Veemon yet," Clawz asked pointing at her cast, "I want this thing off my leg."

"Fine come here so I can take a look at you," Maria sighed as she turns to Clawz, "Even if it does come off you might have to take it easy for about a week."

"Just as long as I can get this off and move around freely," Clawz said.

Maria pulls a device out of her bag and pushes a few buttons on it causing it to become larger enough to scan most of Clawz body, "Hold still Clawz so I can get an proper reading," Maria said as she watches the x-ray start up and focus mainly on her leg and examines it closely, "It looks like I can remove the cast now. You are going to have to take it easy for a little longer then I thought a moment ago."

"What does that mean," Clawz asked.

"You can move about if you want but you shouldn't go jumping from high areas because you could end up breaking your leg again," Maria said, "I would recommend that you don't do any kind of jumping or running around for the time being."

"Why is it you can scan her with something like that and not help Veemon all the way," Mary asked.

"Well I didn't know I would have to be checking anyone for any kind of head injuries till I got here," Maria said as she shuts the machine down and starts removing Clawz cast.

Meanwhile Sora walks into the café with Biyomon, Mimi and Palmon, "Let's get something to eat," Palmon said, "I'm starving."

"Attention will Sora Takenouchi and Alex Shaw please come to the arena in one hour," Knightmon's voice came over the intercom.

"Great looks like we have to fight soon," Sora said sarcastically.

"That isn't too big of a problem," Mimi said, "It gives us enough time to eat before we have to be there."

"Actually there is a problem with that Mimi," Palmon said, "We may have time to eat, but it won't give us time to fully digest it."

"Let's just get something to eat and worry about that later," Sora said.

"Yeah getting something to eat is more important then anything right now," Biyomon said and gets weird looks from the others, "What I haven't eaten since last night and I'm hungry as hell."

Sora walks up to the digimon at one of the serving counters, "I need to get some food," she said, "I need four things, three for digimon and one for myself and can you please go as fast as possible because I have to fight soon and my digimon hasn't had a chance to eat all day due to some circumstances out of my control."

"Alright no problem with that," the digimon said as she grabs four plates and starts putting normal food on one of them and puts strange looking stuff on the others.

"What is that stuff on three of the plates," Mimi asked with a disgusted look on her face.

"It's the same stuff as you see here," the digimon said as she continues what she's doing, "Just slightly altered to digest faster for when you have a fight soon." She hands the plates to Sora and her digimon and then watches as they walk off, 'And it will force the three of them to digi-volve to champion when the fight is ready to start, even if the former human hasn't yet,' she thinks.

Meanwhile back in Tai and Kari's room, "I'm going to the arena after I drop some at the nurse station," Kari says, "I need to drop of Veemon and there a few gatomons."

"What are you doing," Clawz yelled.

"You need a bath," another gatomon said.

"Good luck," Reremon cheers from the back of the gatomon, "I would go but Renamom won't let me."

"You're too young," Renamon said as she enters the room.

"That's why," Reremon said, "Getty up." The gatomon started to run once more.

Maria a few moments later walks out of Kari's room, "Oh before I forget I told to let you know that Knightmon is either coming by tonight or in the next few days to most of the gatomons here to where he runs things," Maria said as she looks at all of them, "At least ten of you will be staying here, the ones I know for sure that will be staying are Ice, Clawz, Kara and Betty, other then that I have no clue."

"What is he going to do with us," a gatomon asked.

"I really don't know," Maria said, "Though it might be better in the long run to go with him."

"Why would you say that," Tai asked.

"You saw how bad of shape most of them were when they first started staying with you," Maria said, "If they stayed here they could end up like that again or worse."

"Maria does make a good point," Kari said as she's trying to keep hold of Veemon who's struggling to get out of her grip and sighs, "Looks like Veemon is out of it again."

"Try to hold him as still as you can for a moment," Maria said as she pulls out a needle filled with some liquid, "This should help a little."

"What is that stuff," Kari asked.

"It's just a little stuff that will knock him out for a little while," Maria said as she grabs one of Veemon's arms and injects the stuff into him, "The amount I gave him will only last for an hour at most, that should be more then enough time to get him to the nurses' place."

"Alright," Kari said as she walks out of the room and starts heading towards the bridge with a few of the gatomons following her.

A little later Kari walks into the nurses' place and looks around, "What happened to this room," she asked as she sees what looks like a typical waiting room with comfortable chairs all over the room.

"Oh your friend Joe suggested it," a nurse said, "He said it would probably make some people feel more comfortable with it being like a doctor's office waiting room in the real world."

"Leave it to Joe to think about other people," Kari said as she notices some magazines on a table in a corner, "Where did you get these?"

"Oh those," the nurse said, "We got into the internet database of the real world and printed them out." The nurse looks at all the gatomons and Veemon in Kari's arms, "Is there anything that you brought all of them here?"

"Maria asked me to drop some of the gatomons off here because she wants a complete examination done on them and Veemon here has a bad head injury," Kari said as she walks over to the nurse and hands Veemon to her, "Maria said she isn't sure the extent of his head injury and wants you to do what you can to determine the extent."

"Why does she say this," the nurse asked.

"Well he's been acting strange half the time since he woke up this morning and Maria says it looks like he has a concussion," Kari explained.

"Hmm I see," the nurse said, "With him being a digimon it could be that he just has a concussion or part of the data that makes up his mind could have been corrupted."

"What would it mean is it's corrupted," Kari asked worried about her friend.

"Either way he'll need time to heal," the nurse said, "If it's just a concussion then he'll be fine in a few days, but if the data became partially corrupted then it could take up to a month for him to fully heal."

"I hope that isn't the case," Kari said.

"So what exactly happened to Veemon," the nurse asked.

"Last night he was struck by a bolt of lightning," Kari said, "What happened is it just suddenly came through the window and hit him and it sent him flying into a wall."

"Hmm until I know otherwise I'm assuming that the data that makes up his mind has been at least a little bit corrupted," the nurse said, "Now the rest of you wait here and some of the other nurses will be here to look at some of you soon."

"Thanks I have to get going now," Kari said and turns around only just noticing that Gatomon and Black Gatomon came with her, "I thought I told the two of you to wait back in the room."

"Do you actually think you would have been able to make it back to the room before Sora's fight started," Gatomon asked.

A little later Sora walks into the arena with her digimon and stops as she see a familiar person in the arena, "Is that you Alex," she asked, "I thought you had a different last name?"

"Well to make a long story short my parents split and my mom remarried and had me take the last name of my step dad," Alex said. Alex hair is a reddish-blonde color, green eyes and a face that some people would consider more on the plain or handsome side then beautiful. She is wearing a black t-shirt with blue jean shorts.

"That's makes sense I guess," Sora said, "Though it has been a few years since we last talked."

"Yeah it has been," Alex said as she walks over to Sora and grabs her in a hug, "How about we catch up on old times after this?"

"That would be great," Sora said and she turns her attention to her digimon and watches as small particles of light appear around them and they all vanish one by one, "Hey what's going on!?"

"I don't know," Alex said as her digimon have also vanished in the same fashion.

Lord Holy Angemon flies up above the arena, "I'm just getting things ready for your fight," he said grinning evilly.

"How can we fight if we don't have our digimon," Alex yelled.

"It's a maze and if both of you have found all of your own digimon before a certain amount of time passes then you two will fight then," Lord Holy Angemon said and watches as the d-reaper comes out of the ground and starts forming walls and paths all over the arena.

Meanwhile in Izzy's room, "Uh Izzy Sora's fight is about to begin," Tentomon said as he's trying to get his attention, "I think Sora would like it if we were to go."

"I think Sora would understand that I need to work on these programs I have been making with Crystal Agumon's help," Izzy said, "Besides you can watch on the TV if you want too."

"It not the same as being there is person," Gomamon said.

"Look the fight is just about to start and the arena is too packed to watch from there," Izzy said.
