Brock was barely awake, it was early morning. "Good morning and welcome to the Ultimate Challenge. The show where more surprises keep appearing every day. Yesterday we saw how the Red Team planned to go back to the old Red Ribbon base, they had to escape from it at the beginning of the Challenge. What awaits them? What will happen with Zidane and Queen Garnet? Well we will probably find out today. On another note the Red Team won their fourth badge yesterday, and it's my job to interview them. This is an excellent chance to get some thoughts from the contestants. I'll be seeing you.

The Red Team minus Trunks were standing outside Uranai Baba's ghost motel, they couldn't find Trunks nor Cologne.

"Where could they be?" Tai asked "We have to leave."

"He should be here any moment now." Makoto said.

Just then Trunks and Cologne walked up to the rest of the team from behind the motel. "Sorry to keep you guys waiting, Cologne had me doing some special training."

"Aren't you tired?" Makoto asked.

"Not at all, this old lady really knows how to teach."

"You have no idea how many people I have taught." Cologne said.

"Well we have to get going now." Haruka said.

"I should go too." Zidane said.

"You should stay here to protect the Queen, you wouldn't want to leave her alone would you?" Tai said.

"Of course not, I'll protect her with my life."

"I'll stay here and help you." Cologne said.

"I'm sorry to being so troublesome, it's always the same with me." Dagger said.

"Don't say that." Agumon said. "You saved everyone yesterday."

Dagger smiled "Please be careful."

Quina looked at Zidane "I would stay, but Quina cannot separate from team."

"I understand Quina." Zidane said "We'll somehow try to manage without you, it's going to be hard as hell but we won't give up."

"Zidane so brave!"

"I know, I know, it's a gift."

"Will you stop it?" Haruka said "We have to get going!"

"I go now." Quina said while starting to walk away.

The Red Team left the ghost motel.

The Red Team had not advanced much when they saw Brock standing on the road ahead of them.
"Brock?" Makoto said.

Brock walked up to the Red Team. "Nice to see you guys."

"Been a while since these whole thing started." Tai said.

"Yeah, but as the host responsible for keeping track of you I've seen a lot of you."

"Why did you show yourself to us now?" Trunks asked.

"Well, this is how it goes. Yesterday you won your fourth badge, and they asked us to interview when you got half of the badges, and that's what I'm doing."

Haruka suddenly yelled. "It's us who need to ask some questions!"

Brock was a bit surprised. "I know what you're going to say, but I like you am completely in the dark. I'm just doing my job, I don't have any inside information, and neither does Minako or Sora."

"This is getting weird." Tai said.

"I know what you mean." Brock said "but maybe we'll get to find out later. Right now I really have to interview you guys."

"All right." Trunks said "Let's get this over with."

Brock took out a small capsule and pressed a button on it, he threw it a small distance away and after a small explosion and large booth appeared. "One by one please, who'll be first?"

Makoto was the first to go in, Brock went right behind her.

Once inside Brock had Makoto seated and had his interview.

"Well Makoto, how has your perception of the Ultimate Challenge changed since the beginning?"

"At first this was just some game show were we would go walking around an island finding setup challenges around. I never expected to meet some army going against us, nor finding some unusual creature, nor finding myself protecting a Queen. I spent part of last night thinking what Tai had said about the Ultimate Challenge."

"How do you feel with the team?"

"Well at times I do wish I was back with the rest of the inner senshi. I miss having Ami explaining everything, Rei getting the team in gear, and Minako and Usagi cheering everyone up. But I do feel like I can trust everybody, and that's important."

"How do feel about the situation?"

"I believe there is wrong doing here, I don't care if it's part of the challenge or not. I'll try to stop it!"

"And one more thing, do you have anything against dating hosts?"

"Huh?"

"Think about it, you and me in a romantic dinner."

"Um.. I have to get going now." Makoto left in a hurry.

Haruka was the second to come in, Brock was a little nervous.

"What do you want to know?"

"Tell me Haruka, are you really acting on your own judgment or are you just going by the flow of the team?"

"What kind of question is that?"

"You don't wish to answer it?"

"I believe there is something wrong here, but I don't understand it completely. I need to find out more."

"Makoto talked about missing the rest of the senshi, do you miss Sailor Neptune?"

"There hasn't been a day when I haven't thought about Michiru, but I'll tell you something. If there is something going on around her you can bet she's not far away."

"I see. Do you think the team will help you on your actions."

"They might disagree with me on some points, but they won't stop me from finding out the truth."

"Do you think they are of help."

"They are good people, even Quina comes in useful at times. But at times I do feel they slow me down a little."

"Thanks, please ask someone else to come in."

"Very well."

Trunks came in and had his seat.

"Trunks, I've been talking with Makoto and Haruka about the situation, what are your feelings on this? Do you really feel you have to do this?"

"Frankly, I don't think we could get out if we wanted. We simply can't ignore it."

"With everything that happen yesterday, is some portion of your mind still thinking about the Blue Team? or does that problem seem distant now?"

"It did fall a bit into the background, but one thing is for sure. We will meet up again."

"Do you think the Ultimate Challenge has anything to do with is."

"Well, it's a bit odd. I first I thought they were maybe some actors used by the Ultimate Challenge, but now I don't know. I wish someone would explain it to me."

"I see your point, think you'll find some answers today?"

"Well I hope so."

"Well I wish you the best of luck."

"Thank you."

Trunks left.

Quina came in and sat down quickly.

"Um.. .hello Quina."

"Hi"

"What are your thoughts about he whole ordeal?"

"I no understand, why such big deal of lizard nest?"

Brock had a sweatdrop. "Well, what about Kyougumon?"

"I want to eat, too bad it get away."

"I suppose that would help. Are you worried about the danger ahead?"

"I do what I want, I no be used."

"I see.. .well look at the time, I have to move on. Please ask Tai to come in."

"This be short interview."

"We're running out of time."

Brock pushed Quina out.

Finally Tai came in.

"Tai, how do you feel about the Team?"

"It's a hard time for me Brock, as captain I don't know in what direction to take the team. As a game it was easy, but now it looks more serious and it gets harder. It doesn't help that I'm the youngest of the team either. I'm glad Agumon is with me, I have someone to talk too."

"If there is something really going on, do you think the team will still follow you?"

"I hope so, but I hope I can make the right decisions."

"You did guide the digidestined to victory."

"I know, but this is different. It's harder to be taken seriously because I'm a kid. Haruka would probably be the first to go against me. She's tough!"

"Well, the game just took a whole new meaning for you. It's going to be more difficult from here on."

"You know, I wonder if the other teams have felt like this. I wonder how they would handle it."

"Well if there is something going on in the island. They'll both find out sooner or later."

"I'm worried about Kari."

"You should have some faith in her and in her team. You witnessed first hand what they can do."

"It's too hard not to worry."

"I know, but she'll be fine. You try to take care of yourself first."

"Ok... are we done?"

"That's about it. Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Brock was standing in front of the Red Team "Sorry I can't help you guys, but if I find something I'll find a way to let you know."

"Bye Brock!" Tai said.

"Trust each other, right now it's the only thing you have." Brock said while walking away.

"Well... now that that is over with let's continue our journey." Trunks said.

The Red Team walked towards the base at the edge of the desert just outside the woods.

The Red Team had not walk for long when they heard a voice "You won't find what you're looking for." They turned around and saw the Turks again.

"You guys are starting to get on my nerves" said Tai.

"The feeling is mutual." Reno said.

"You guys won't get away with it!" Makoto yelled.

"Get away with what? Do you even know?"

Trunks yelled "We don't know for sure, but you won't take Princess Garnet!"

"If you knew what was going on you'd want us to get her."

"Forget it Reno, these guys are to dense. They just won't get it!"

Haruka got upset "Then tell us! Why do you want princess Garnet!?"

Reno smiled "We're trying to protect her from Kyougumon."

"You're lying! Why would you do that? Kyougumon is probably part of the Red Ribbon, the same as you."

"You say the truth, yet you're missing the point. There are things you don't know."

Tai yelled "We don't believe you!"

"Big damn deal, you can't do a thing. Kyougumon might have gotten to the Queen while we're out here talking. Listen, we're only here to tell you that beauty and the beast are in a small cabin just about 10 minutes into the woods from here."

"Beauty and the Beast?" Makoto asked.

"Those knights we had kidnapped."

"Why are you telling us this?" Trunks asked.

"We don't need them anymore, you might as well go get them." at that moment the Turks started to leave.

"You think we can just let you leave so easily!?" Tai yelled.

"I'll stop them Tai!" Agumon yelled "Agumon digi..."

Elena spoke "There's a time bomb in there, if you don't hurry it's going to start raining guts in a couple of minutes."

"Damn!" Tai yelled "We have no choice!"

Trunks started running "Let's go!"

The Red Team went into the woods.

Shortly after the Red Team had left Uranai Baba's ghost motel, Matt arrived to talk to Queen Garnet.

"Listen your highness, we have to go." Matt said.

"But what about the others?" Dagger asked.

"I understand how you needed them yesterday, but they shouldn't get more involved than they already are."

"And who are you working for?" Zidane asked.

"I'm working for a special organization which has been monitoring the Red Ribbon's activity and want to stop them. Unlike the Red Team I can take you to a place that is safe."

Cologne was curious "Is there a connection between your organization and the Ultimate Challenge?"

"To tell you the truth, I don't know."

"This is all very confusing."

"I know" Dagger said "I don't know what to do anymore."

"Your highness, I saved you yesterday. I'm only asking you to trust me, we want to help."

"Very well, I trust you. Let's get going then. Zidane?"

"If it's OK with you then I'm for it. But what about the others?"

"Don't worry about them" Cologne said "once they're back I'll explain it to them."

"Please don't tell them I was here." Matt asked.

"Very well."

Suddenly Gabumon came in quickly "Matt!! He's here!"

"Who?"

"Kyougumon!!"

"Damn! He found us!" Matt looked at Zidane "Gabumon and I will fight him, I need you to take the Queen North to New Alexandria. I'll catch up with you when I can."

Zidane looked determined "Gotcha, I'll do my best!"

Matt nodded and he went outside with Gabumon by his side.

Zidane took Dagger's hand "Come on, let's use the back door." and pulled her towards the back door.

Cologne and Uranai Baba wished them luck as they left.

Matt and Gabumon found Kyougumon just outside the hotel, he was shivering.

Matt said "We're not going to fool around this time! Let's show him our true power Gabumon!"

"I'm with you Matt! All the way! Gabumon warp digivolves to... Metalgarurumon!!"

Kyougumon was startled and started to shake.

"Metalgarurumon! Don't let him escape this time!"

"I won't!" Metalgarurumon attacked Kyougumon head on, but when he was about to get hit, he disappeared.

"Hey! Where he go?"

"The little bastard fooled us!" Matt yelled "He's not here!"

"But if he's not here then..."

"OH NO!!!"

Zidane and Dagger had not traveled far when Kyuogumon fell off a tree and landed in front of them. "I can't take it anymore!" Kyougumon yelled in anger.

"I don't know how you got here, but I'm not going to let you touch her!" Zidane said. He charged at Kyougumon with his daggers, but instead of attacking he threw some powder that gave off small explosions that blinded Kyougumon. When Kyougumon regained his sight he noticed both Zidane and Dagger were gone.

"She will not get away." Kyougumon said. He immediately went off in their pursuit.

The Red Team had made it to the headquarters the Turks had talked about, it was an old cabin in the woods. Trunks was the first one to go in, he saw Steiner tied up to a chair and he looked desperate.

"Thank heavens. Please I humbly request your assistance in performing my escape from this restrains."

"Um... sure." Trunks said, he then went to untie Steiner.

Makoto got in "Trunks hurry! You don't know when the bomb will blow up."

"Bomb!?" Steiner said.

"The Turks told us there's a bomb in here." Trunks answered.

"Let us make haste then."

Trunks undid Steiner's ropes and he sat up quickly. "Where is the other one?"

"Other one?"

"Aren't there supposed to be two of you?"

"Ah.. you mean Beatrix. I wish I knew were she was, sadly she's not here."

"Let's get out of here then."

The Red Team along with Steiner ran away from the cabin until they felt they were a safe distance away from it.

Tai: "Looks like we made it in time."

Steiner: "I thank you for helping me, I'm in your debt."

Trunks: "Hey it was nothing."

Haruka: "In any case we must hurry back to see if Queen Garnet is OK"

Steiner: "You know where the Queen is!? I ask for your assistance one more time to get me to her."

Makoto: "Hey we have to go there anyway, we don't want the Turks or Kyougumon to get to her first."

Steiner: "Once I get my hands on those fiends I'm going to make them suffer."

Agumon: "Tai, how come there hasn't been an explosion yet? It's been a while."

Tai: "You don't suppose the Turks lied. Do you?"

Trunks: "They also said Beatrix was there, but she wasn't."

Steiner: "There is not time for this!! We must hurry to the Queen!!"

Haruka: "OK, let's get going."

Matt was riding metalgarurumon looking for Queen Garnet, his search was put to a halt when he met up with the Turks.

"You guys must be the Turks." Matt said "I've been wanting to get my hands on you ever since you hurt Ami."

"So you're with them huh." Reno said "You won't get in our way either."

"Don't try anything funny." Metalgarurumon said "I could freeze and break you in an instant."

"Really?"

"We don't want to waste our time with them Metalgarurumon, let's finish them quickly."

"You got it Matt!"

"Guess they'll have to learn who the Turks are" Reno said "the hard way."

Metalgarurumon charged at the Turks.

Zidane and Dagger continued running through the woods. "Zidane, I'm getting tired."

"We have to keep going! Who knows what that creature will do if he catches up with us."

"I know but..."

Suddenly they heard "Bubble blow!!" and before they knew it they were both knocked to the ground. Kyougumon was flying towards them at incredible speed, his eyes were glowing and he was facing dagger. "I... need... YOU!!!"

"World Shaking!!" A ball of power came out of the ground and hit Kyougumon and sent him crashing against a tree.

The Red Team arrived along with Steiner. "My Queen!! Are you OK?"

Zidane and Dagger got up "Yes, thank you."

Kyougumon recovered quickly "I will not let you take away what is rightfully mine."

Steiner faced Kyougumon "You foul creature, the Queen belongs to no one!" he drew out his sword ready to attack Kyougumon.

"Hey Steiner!" Zidane said "Don't fight it! It's a whole lot stronger than what it looks."

Quina looked at Kyougumon "Can I eat it?"

Trunks looked at Quina "Well if you can then be my guest, I doubt it will be an easy catch though."

Kyougumon leaped and attacked Haruka "Bubble Blow."

Uranus was hit and was sent flying back.

Jupiter decided to attack "Sparkling Wide Pressure!" Her attack hit the target and Kyougumon was stunned.

Steiner took the opportunity and attacked Kyougumon "You fiend, how dare you try to hurt the princess."
Kyougumon recovered just before being hit by Steiner's sword and shot a green beam from his eyes. Steiner started to turn into wireframe and then disappeared.

"Steiner!!" Dagger yelled.

"Damn!" Zidane said.

"Holy shit!" Jupiter yelled "He disappeared."

Uranus recovered and took out her Talisman "Cosmic Sword!" she waved her sword and shot a crescent type beam. Kyougumon was barely able to dodge, the beam hit a tree behind him and it was cut in half.
"Zidane!" Trunks yelled "get the Queen out of here!"

"Right! Let's go Dagger."

"But Steiner!"

"Look, you'll be of more help being out of danger. We'll figure how to help Steiner later."

"But..."

Zidane grabbed Dagger's hand and ran away.

Kyougumon looked at them from a distance and took off after them. He was in such a hurry that he didn't notice Trunks getting close.

Trunks grabbed Kyougumon with one hand and smashed him against a rock, then without taking off his hand off Kyougumon he shot a power beam from it and smashed the rock into pieces.

"Go Trunks!" Tai yelled.

Kyougumon flew away, he looked hurt, but not much. Yet he failed to notice Quina right below him. S/he extended her tongue and grabbed Kyougumon, s/he pulled his/her tongue back and ate him.

"Way to go Quina!" Tai yelled.

Quina the started to spin real quick, a moment later s/he had to spit Kyougumon out. Quina then stopped spinning, but was very dizzy. "Quina no like to go round and round."

Kyougumon was becoming very desperate "Why do you keep me away from her?"

"What's with you!?" Jupiter said "We don't want you to do to here what you did with Steiner!"

"Why not?"

"What the hell!?"

Kyougumon shot a green beam and Jupiter, but she avoided it. He saw his chance and started to fly away towards Zidane and Dagger.

"We can't let him get away!" Uranus yelled.

The Red Team ran in chase of Kyougumon, but the little digimon flew faster than they could run.

Zidane and Dagger made it to a clearing in the woods, but just then Kyougumon flew past them, stopped and turned around to face them.

"Damn!" Zidane yelled while taking out his daggers.

"Zidane! Please don't fight him! I don't to let what happened to Steiner happen to you!"

"I have no choice Dagger!" Zidane charged at Kyougumon.

Kyougumon charged at Zidane, but before they collided he flew down and went between Zidane's legs.

"NOOOO!" Zidane yelled.

Kyougumon headed towards Dagger ready to strike.

"Sparkling wide pressure!!"

Kyougumon was hit by Jupiter's blast and was thrown off.

The Red Team had just arrived in time.

"Agumon!" Tai yelled.

"I'll take care of it!" Agumon said "Agumon digivolves to... Greymon!"

Kyuougumon was shivering "Why, why is all this happening?" he then charged at the Red Team.

"Aqua Breath!" Quina attacked Kyougumon with a water type attack. Kyougumon lost his stability in the air and crashed into a tree.

"World Shaking!"

"Nova Flame!" Greymon and Uranus attacked Kyougumon at the same time. When the attacks hit him there was a small explosion.

"I think we got him!" Trunks said.

Zidane went to Dagger to see how she was. "Are you OK?"

Dagger was weeping "Yes.. but Steiner."

"I know..."

Just then something popped out of the ground in front of Dagger, it was Kyougumon. Before anyone could react Kyougumon shot a green beam at Dagger, she started to turn into wireframe and then she disappeared.
"NOOO!!" Zidane yelled, he charged at Kyougumon but was thrown back by some sort of energy field that surrounded Kyougumon.

"What is happening!?" Trunks yelled.

Kyougumon was glowing intensely, the temperature in the area was raising and an awful noise could be heard.
"Ack! It's that noise again!" Tai said "It's the same one we heard in New Alexandria when that digimon was born."

Just then everyone saw the little digimon digivolve into a slightly larger digimon. "Kyougumon digivolves to... Teromon!"

Teromon was slightly larger than Tai, his bottom half was snake like, he's top half was human like but with green skin, he was bald but had a horn on his head, and he had gargoyle type wings on his back.

"What happened to him!?" Uranus asked.

"He digivolved when he made Queen Garnet disappear." Tai said.

Teromon felt some discomfort, he grabbed his head showing he had a terrible headache. He turned around and looked at the Red Team.

"We can't let him get away with this!" Trunks charged at Teromon. Teromon simply flew up to avoid him. "No! He's going to get away!"

Greymon attacked Teromon from the ground "Nova Flame!"

Teromon easily dodged it, he then took a good look at Greymon. "Just like the other, he can link his database to his human partner to unlock the digievolution." Teromon then examined Greymon's data. "Um... there's an interesting piece of evolution code in there. I wonder what happens when that is unlocked." He then shot a red beam from his eyes that struck Greymon.

Greymon yelled in pain "TAI!!"

"GREYMON!!" Tai yelled while running towards his friend.

At that moment Greymon digivolved to Skullgreymon.

"OH NO!!"

Teromon flew away.

"What happened to Greymon!" Mako asked.

"RUN!" Tai yelled.

Skullgreymon started bashing everything in site. The Red Team along with Zidane started to run away.

"Tai?" Trunks asked.

"It's Greymon's corrupt digievolution. Right now he's only thinking about destroying things."

"How can we stop him?" Uranus asked.

"We have to wait until he runs out of energy, unfortunately he's become real good at digivolving so that is going to take a while."

Skullgreymon noticed them running away and started chasing them, crushing everything in his path.

Uranus stopped "We can't outrun him until he runs out of energy, we must attack to weaken him."

Tai got scared "Uranus no!"

Jupiter joined Uranus "We have no choice."

"World Shaking!"

"Sparkling wide Pressure!"

Both attacks hit Skullgreymon, but none had the slightest effect. He swiped his hand and hit them both away.
Trunks leaped and gave a flying kick to Skullgreymon's knee, but nothing happened. Skullgreymon grabbed Trunks and started to squish him.

"Trunks!" Tai ran towards Skullgreymon "Greymon! Please stop!"

Quina and Zidane went to help the senshi. Quina cured them of their wounds "White wind!"

Uranus and Jupiter recovered"Thanks Quina." Jupiter said.

"We have to go help the others." Uranus said.

Skullgreymon grabbed Tai with his other hand and was trying to squish him as well.

Uranus, Jupiter and Quina attacked Skullgreymon at the same time, but their attacks didn't do anything.

"That thing is unstoppable!" Zidane said. He was angry and sad, Dagger had just been taken away by Teromon and now they were being attacked by one of their own. Zidane started to glow.

"What is happening!?" Uranus asked.

"He go into trance." Quina responded.

Zidane yelled "Grand Lethal!" He suddenly released a huge wave of energy against Skullgreymon.

Skullgreymon was thrown back, he dropped Trunks and Tai in the process.

Trunks went to look at Tai, he was unconscious because of the lack of air. Unfortunately Skullgreymon recovered quickly and was ready to destroy them.

"Grand Lethal!" For a second time Zidane released a massive wave of energy at Skullgreymon, but this time we was ready and was only slightly pushed back. After the end of the attack Zidane lost his glow and collapsed into the ground.

Trunks was holding Tai and was running away from Skullgreymon.

"World Shaking!"

"Jupiter Oak Revolution!"

"Aqua Breath!"

Their attacks slowed Skullgreymon a bit but were not enough to stop them. He reached Trunks and stepped on him and Tai.

"NO!" Jupiter yelled.

Just then there was a faint green glow under Skullgreymon's foot, then there was an intense yellow glow. Suddenly his foot was lifted and he fell on his back, everyone saw super Trunks.

Trunks lifted Tai and quickly moved towards the rest of the team. "Take care of him while I take care of Skullgreymon."

Uranus took Tai and Trunks flew away towards Skullgreymon.

Skullgreymon got up and saw Trunks above him, he fired some sort of missile he had on his back. Trunks took the blow and was just slightly thrown back.

"HAAAA!!" Trunks shot an energy blast at Skullgreymon, this time the effect was noticeable on him. Trunks then charged at Skullgreymon and kick him on the head, he was thrown back. "You're pretty big, but slow." He then started shooting dozens of energy blasts at Skullgreymon, creating a lot of dust in the process.

When the dust cleared Skullgreymon had disappeared, Trunks flew down to check what had happened and found the unconscious Koromon.

The Red Team went back to Uranai Baba's motel. Zidane, Tai and Koromon were taken into a room to rest. The rest were gathered at the lobby to discuss what had happened.

Makoto: "So can anyone explain what just happened?"

Haruka: "We found out why Kyougumon was after the Queen, she was the key to his evolution."

Trunks: "But why is this happening? Where did Kyougumon come from?"

Makoto: "It's Teromon now."

Trunks: "Yeah, whatever. I mean Quina found the egg in some sort of Red Ribbon laboratory. It seems it's the Red Ribbon's creation."

Haruka: "So? It seems like he's a weapon created by them."

Trunks: "Yeah, but if that's the case why were the Turks, who are are working for the Red Ribbon, trying to protect Garnet from Kyougumon? Wouldn't the Red Ribbon want its weapon to become more powerful?"

Makoto: "Maybe it's not good for them that Teromon is free."

Trunks: "Then why didn't they try to recover it while it was an egg. Quina was clearly seen taking it and we weren't that hard to find."

Haruka: "Maybe the process isn't going as they expected. In any case we simply can't guess what's going on."

Cologne: "Didn't you find anything at the Red Ribbon's base?"

Trunks: "We never got there."

Cologne: "Well, you won't find out anything unless you investigate."

Makoto: "But what about the Ultimate Challenge?"

Haruka: "I think this is more important."

Trunks: "I agree, who knows what Teromon is capable off."

Makoto: "*sigh* I'm going to check on Tai, he knows more about digimon than what we do and after all, he's the captain."

Trunks: "I suppose you're right. He has a right to have his opinion heard."

Makoto left to check on Tai.

A few minutes later Makoto, Tai and Koromon came down.

Makoto: "Guys! Zidane has disappeared!"

Haruka: "What!?"

Uranai Baba: "Why would he leave!?"

Cologne: "He must have wanted to rescue the Queen and went to look for Teromon by himself."

Quina: "Zidane be a bit zealous at times."

Trunks: "We can see that."

Koromon: "Guys, I'm sorry for what I did."

Tai: "Don't worry Koromon, it wasn't your fault."

Makoto: "But did you know what happened?"

Koromon: "No, it was very weird."

Trunks: "Were could Zidane have gone to? We don't have the slightest idea where Teromon went."

Tai: "We must find the Yellow Team."

Haruka: "Huh?"

Tai: "We have to explain to Izzy what we saw, surely he would able to think of something."

Makoto: "You think we should drop the Ultimate Challenge and look for the Yellow Team to ask for their help?"

Tai: "Oh yeah, I wanted to show you guys something." Tai took out a badge from his left pocket, it had a faint green glow.

Haruka: "So? What's with the badge?"

Tai then put his hand on his right pocket, he took out four badges, all of them without their glow. "Guys, this is a new badge."

Trunks: "Where did it come from?"

Tai: "I don't know, it was right besides me when I woke up."

Haruka: "COLOGNE!! What the hell is going on!?!?"

Cologne: "I don't know, I swear by my Chinese ancestors."

Quina: "I no get it, team should be happy to get badge."

Makoto: "Quina is right, think about it. Right now Trunk's and Tai's powers are limited. If we're going to take on Teromon we'll need badges."

Trunks: "Guess you're right, the badges have saved us in time of need."

Haruka: "So what do we do now!?"

Tai: "I said let's go look for the Yellow Team!"

Makoto: "But where!?"

Trunks: "We know they were headed north of the island. Let's go look back to New Alexandria and go north from there."

Haruka: "We'll lose too much time doing that."

Tai: "Do you have any idea what we're up against?"

Haruka: "NO! Do you!?"

Tai: "No! but I bet Izzy could."

Trunks: "I think Tai is right, we really don't know what were up against. We may even need the strength of all the teams."

Makoto: "Yeah, let's look for the Yellow Team."

Quina: "And invite them to dinner."

Koromon: "It's only good manners."

Quina: "Right."

Trunks: "It's decided then, well go to new Alexandria."

Quina: "But let's have lunch first."

Koromon: "Yeah! I'm starving!"

Makoto: "Alright, but after lunch we're leaving."

Haruka: "I still think it's a waste of time, but I have no choice."

The Red Team had there lunch before heading back towards New Alexandria.

Brock was once again standing just outside the Uranai Baba's motel. "This time I don't know what to say. I'm pretty confused myself, how real is the Ultimate Challenge's danger? At first we all knew there was going to be some danger to it, but things look down right excessive! In any case, I'm still here to do my job, which is to bring you all the latest news of the Ultimate Challenge as the days go by. For now this has been Brock reporting for the Ultimate Challenge."

Teromon rested on top of a icy mountain. "So this is what digievolution is like, I never imagined it was so wonderful. Everything is becoming clear, how could I have forgotten? The darkness had me for such a long time, but destiny is smiling on me, what is wrong can still be corrected. Yet the process is still not complete, I must complete my evolution to fulfill my goal, and they will try to stop me. Hehe, try as they will they'll soon realize there is nothing they can do. Now I must concentrate in finding the others that will complete my evolution."

Matt and Gabumon were standing in the forest, Matt was contacting his boss.

"This is Matt calling HQ. Come in HQ."

"HQ here, what's the situation."

"Bad, I believe Kyougumon has digivolved."

"What!? How!?"

"I think the Queen was the key, but I'm not sure."

"Why didn't you stop it!?"

"The Turks got in my way, weird thing was they were really upset about it."

"Upset?"

"Yeah, you'd think they'd be happy Kyougumon digivolved."

"What did you see!?"

"Metalgarurumon was fighting with the Turks when suddenly a creature with large wings flew above us. Metalgarurumon and I tried to follow it but he ran out of energy and went back to Gabumon. The Turks took the opportunity and left. What do you want us to do?"

"Go find Kyougumon!"

"He has digivolved, he must have another name now."

"I don't care if he calls himself Silvester Stallone! Go find him before he digivolves again!"

"Got it, we still have the power to stop him."

"Yes, STILL is right, but for how long?"

"Don't worry, I won't let that happen, but some backup would be nice."

"We have someone working on a special project for Vegeta, once it is done he'll join you."

Matt didn't sound too thrilled with the idea "Very well... I'm out."

"Good luck."
