The sun was raising over the horizon, and Mina was standing next to Rei just outside the temple. "Hello, my name is Mina Aino and you're watching the ultimate challenge. With me is Rei Hino, a really good friend of mine."

"It's a pleasure to be here Mina, how are you doing?"

"I'll tell you once I know if I got my raise. But never mind that, can you tell us about the blue team and the guardian who they will be facing?"

"To tell you a truth I'm a bit worried, actually a lot. Beruche wasn't good at battle even she was in the Black Moon, and she hasn't gotten completely reused to her powers. I don't know much about the two girls with their digimon, they're very nice but a certain level of aggressiveness will be needed for this battle. Speaking of that Vivi seems a bit passive and may not be able to react in time. Ranma seems to be quite strong but he won't be able to beat the guardian with his strength alone."

"What about the guardian?"

"I can't tell who he is, you're about to find out anyway. I can only tell you that I feel his spirit every night. And it's so strong that it scares me. He seems to have some grief in his heart but he's searching for enlightening. I bet he's really anxious to test out the Blue Team's strength."

"Well, this will definitely be a tough challenge. So let's quit talking and go see the action."

The blue team was standing on the platform in the center of the temple. Ranma, Gatomon and Palmon were in front. Beruche and Vivi were behind them. Mimi and Kari were at the very back.

Ranma said "The only thing I have to say is that I trust you guys. This challenge will make us stronger as a team."

"Why Ranma, you've changed. You thought we were all spoiled brats." Said Beruche.

"I still do, but that has nothing to do with this." Ranma smiled.

Beruche smiled.

"I'm scared, but I'll do my best for you guys." Said Vivi

"Don't worry Vivi. We're in this together." Said Kari

"You can count on me too." Said Mimi

Just then the door of the guardian started to open, the light didn't seem to penetrate into the room so the guardian could not be seen yet. Once the door completely opened the guardian was revealed.

"It's Mewtwo!!" Kari yelled.

"It's a pokemon?" Ranma said.

"Ah you know me. I'm honored to have received such popularity." Said Mewtwo.

"He's speaking into our minds." Beruche Said

"Right! For this battle I would be able to read your thoughts and predict your every move, but to make things a bit more challenging I'm not going to that."

"Are you giving us a break? You might regret it later" Ranma Said

"Ha! Make me regret my decision then!"

"all right I will!"

Ranma charged at Mewtwo, just before he reached him he quickly moved to the left and threw a roundhouse kick. His foot stopped just before hitting Mewtwo's head. Ranma flew back and hit the ground in front of Palmon and Gatomon.

"Come on! You think it's going to be that easy?"

"Damn."

"Palmon, are you ready?" Gatomon Said

"Give me a second. Palmon digivolves to... Togemon!"

Gatomon ran towards Mewtwo ready to strike with a flying kick. Mewtwo held her in the air with his psychic powers and then slammed her hard on the ground.

Togemon ran toward Mewtwo and threw a punch. Mewtwo disappeared and reappeared behind Togemon.

"To slow." Mewtwo Said

Togemon turned around to give another punch. Her fist stopped before hitting him and she hit herself instead.

Mewtwo teleported behind Togemon and used his energy to push her back.

Togemon turned around "Needle spray!" she shot her needles at Mewtwo.

Mewtwo raised his hand and the needles stopped. He turned them around and shot them back. Gatomon, Togemon and Ranma were hit with some. Beruche raised an ice barrier and stopped the needles from hitting the rest of the party.

"Gatomon!" Kari yelled.

"Vivi! Can't you do something?" Beruche Said

"I... I don't know what to do. He's too powerful."

"I can't believe this!"

Beruche dropped the ice barrier and joined her hands in a similar way that Goku does when he's about to do a Kamehameha. She made a small ball of blue energy and threw it at Mewtwo. Mewtwo stopped that attack in the same way he did the others.

"You think your powers will ever touch me?" He had the energy ball raised higher and let it explode. A blizzard resulted from the explosion and it hit the party.

"It's too cold." Mimi Said

Ranma got close to the rest of the party and Said"We won't beat him if we keep fighting like this. We must work as a team if we want to have a fighting chance. Kari, have Gatomon attack from the left side, I'll attack from the right side. Beruche, Mimi, Vivi, you guys attack all at once. Got it? Then let's do it."

Ranma and Gatomon got in place, the rest of the team was ready to attack.

"Needle spray!"

"Iceball!"

"Thundaga!"

Ranma and Gatomon attacked Mewtwo at the same time. Mewtwo disappeared and Ranma crashed with Gatomon. Not only that but the other's attacks were about to hit them.

"Ranma!!" Beruche yelled.

All of the attacks stopped before hitting them. Mewtwo floated above the party. "You are going to hurt yourselves. I think you should stop this before it's too late."

The whole team hesitated on what Mewtwo Said

"I'm sorry" Vivi Said

"You don't want to give up? Be my guests." Mewtwo combined all the attacks turning the needles into sharp ice blades with electricity running through them. He then threw the blades in all directions, many cut Ranma, Gatomon, Togemon and Beruche. One even cut Kari near her right knee, another cut Mimi over her left shoulder. One went right through Vivi's hat. The cuts were painful and the electricity stunned everyone.

Togemon didn't have enough strength and turned back to Palmon.

Mimi held her shoulder and started crying "This is hopeless!"

"I'm not giving up!" Beruche yelled. She put her hands in front of her body , she was ready to fire an ice beam. But her whole body froze, she couldn't move at all.

Gatomon got up slowly, she Said"I have to hand it to you. Before this fight I thought all Digimon were stronger than Pokemon. You proved me wrong. But I'm not going to give up! This if for you Kari!" She jumped up ready to strike Mewtwo with her claws.

"You should know better than that by now." He stopped Gatomon in mid air again and threw her against Kari.

Gatomon got off Kari "Kari! I'm sorry, are you OK?"

Kari had a tear running down her cheek. "I'm OK Gatomon. It wasn't your fault."

Ranma was on his feet, he yelled. "Hey Mewtwo! Why don't you come down here and fight like a man!"

"Don't insult me! I'm no mere man! But if you really want me to." Mewtwo floated down.
Ranma attacked Mewtwo with a flying kick, but he hit some sort of invisible barrier that was around Mewtwo. Ranma hit the barrier several times trying to break it but it was no use. Suddenly Ranma felt a punch on the gut, then another one on his face. Ranma felt as if he was being beat up by a dozen guys. "AAAAhhh!"

After a while the punches stopped, but Ranma had bruises all over his body.

Beruche was able to move again but didn't have much strength left and fell to her knees.

Mewtwo floated in front of Ranma who could barely stand. "You know, I do regret my decision, had I known how easy this fight was going to be I would have given you more advantage."

"Shut up!" Ranma was about to punch Mewtwo but his fist stopped right in front of Mewtwo's face. He then started floating, he stretched his arms and legs and started yelling. It felt like they were pulling his arms and legs and were ripping him apart.

"Ranma!!" yelled Beruche. She hit the ground with the palm of her hands and the ground below Mewtwo started to turn blue.

"That won't work, you shouldn't even bother." Mewtwo Said

Vivi got angry "Stop hurting my friends!! FLARE!!!"

Fire energy gathered around Mewtwo's energy shield, it then exploded with fury sending Ranma flying. Mewtwo's shield was blown away but he was not hurt.

"Hey! The little guy packs a punch." Ranma Said weakly.

"Nice try! Your powers are greater than I thought. But.."

Mewtwo was hit from below by a huge ice beam. It covered him in ice and threw him upward.

Palmon could barely move but was still standing. "We finally hit him. We can't stop now or else that will be in vain. Poison Ivy!" She extended her fingertips into long vines and grabbed Mewtwo's ice figure. She then slammed him on the ground. The ice covering Mewtwo shattered. The attacks seemed to have had their effect on him.

"Thank you for not giving up Palmon" Mimi Said

Mewtwo was getting up when he saw Ranma running towards him "Such energy and determination. I didn't think any human could be like that. But you won't beat me."

Mewtwo was about to stop Ranma but Vivi yelled "STOP!!" He cast a spell on Mewtwo and it was his turn for not moving.

Ranma Said"It's my turn! Tenshin Agiburiken!" Ranma hit Mewtwo several times, his body wasn't very resistant to physical attacks. Ranma finished his series of punches with an uppercut and sent Mewtwo flying to the ground.

Ranma was breathing heavily, the battle had taken all of his strength. But Mewtwo was getting up. Ranma couldn't believe it "What will it take to beat you?"

All of a sudden Gatomon got on top of Mewtwo and punched him on the face. She was about to hit him again when she started floating.

Mewtwo was really hurt but he wasn't defeated yet. He used his psychic powers to hold Gatomon above him. But he was weak and could barely hold her.

"Gatomon!!" Kari yelled. Her crest of light started to glow.

Gatomon's body started to glow and all of a sudden she was able to overcome Mewtwo's powers. She landed on top of him and punched him again. She then held his chest to the ground with her left paw and held her right paw above his face with her claws out. "Put an end to this."

Mewtwo closed his eyes and relaxed his head on the ground. "You're right. I have been beaten. You are the winners."

All the team sighed in relief and laid on the ground, the battle was over.

All of the Blue Team were sitting in the dinning room. Rei came in holding something in her hands. "You guys really amazed me today. I have to admit I had my serious doubts, but you came through."

"It was all thanks to Vivi" Mimi Said"If it weren't for him we would have lost for sure."

"You could have been quicker though." Ranma Said

"Sorry"

"Aw.. come on Ranma. He did what he could, in the end he came through for us."

Mimi smiled "Oh and Beruche, why did you kept yelling Ranma's name during the battle?"

Beruche blushed "Well, he was being attacked by Mewtwo. I would have done it for anybody."

"I didn't hear Beruche yelling my name." Gatomon Said

"Mine neither." Palmon Said

"Will you guys stop it!? It's not what you think!"

"Of course not!" Kari Said teasing.

Mimi, Palmon, Kari and Gatomon: "Oh Ranma!! Ranma!!" Everyone but Beruche laughed.

"Oh, I have something for you" Rei Said"You should receive some of these after every battle with a guardian" She held some beans in her hands. "You can all take one. These are senzu beans, like the ones they use in dragonball. They will heal you of all your wounds and leave you very satisfied, you won't get hungry in a while."

"This is nice, scars just don't look well on my skin you know." Beruche Said

"Do this things really work?" Mimi asked.

"Just try them." Rei Said

Everybody ate a bean, their cuts and bruises disappeared and they felt satisfied.

"Wow! This feels great!" Ranma Said

Everybody felt great.

"But my dress is still torn" Mimi Said

"What do you expect? You need a taylor for that." Rei Said"If you want you could stay the rest of the day and I could fix your clothes for you."

"Thank you for the offer, but it's still early and we can't waste time like this." Ranma Said

"But I do believe you still owe us something."

"That's right!" Rei stood up and left the room. She came back after a short moment holding a small box. She put it on the table and opened it. Inside was a badge.

"So this is what a badge looks like." Kari Said

The badge looked like two drops of golden water chasing each other, it had a green sphere in the middle which had a soft glow. "The glow of the badge means it has power in it." Rei Said"You can use it to let a digimon reach it's perfect level for 10 minutes. You don't have saiyans in your group so it's only useful for that. Once you use it it will lose it's glow."

"I'll hold this." Ranma Said"I'm the captain."

"And I thought being the captain hadn't gone to your head" Beruche Said

"Very funny, now let us leave."

The blue team got up and started to leave. Everyone waved good-bye to Rei as they left the temple. Vivi got to ride Ponyta on the way down.

Mina was on the center platform where the battle took place. "Wow! What a battle! We Said there would be action, and we delivered. But now the blue team should have a better idea of how tough this game can be. Let's hope they can keep up the rhythm. Now lets watch how the Yellow team is doing. Sora? What did you think of the Blue team's battle?"

Sora was at the base of a volcano, sweat covered her forehead. "Uff..it was hot! But not as hot as I feel right now, and I'm only here at the base of the volcano. The Yellow team must find a way to to go inside and get the badge."

"Sora is melting! Let's get out of here Sora!" Biyomon Said

"I'm not melting, It's just sweat."

"Oh.. Biyomon doesn't want Sora to melt!

"Sora is not going to melt! Let's just watch the yellow team."

The yellow team was climbing the volcano. The two men from the village who had guided them did not climb with them.

"I can't go on." Izzy Said

"We can't give up." Ryoga Said

"Now I see why you didn't bring the laptop Izzy" Tentomon Said

"The heat would be too much for it." Izzy Said

"Well, it doesn't appear too hot for me." Goku Said

"I admire your resistance Goku, but not all of us have had your level of training." Freya Said

"I wish I did though. Are you OK Pikachu?" Ash Said

"Pikapika"

The team finally got to the top of the volcano, the heat was too much to bare.

"Now what?" Ryoga asked.

"It's too hot to go down there." Izzy Said

"I know, maybe it's not too far down. I'll have Charizard look for it." Ash Said

"Worth a try. Go for it."

"Charizard I choose you!"

The large lizard pokemon appeared. His tail was burning fiercely and he was shooting fire from his mouth. "Chaaar!!"

"Charizard! We need you to look for a box inside the volcano."

"Charizaaaaaard!!" Charizard flew down the volcano looking for the box.

"Think he can find it?" Freya asked.

"Hope so..."

20 minutes had passed and Charizard had not come back, everybody was getting worn out by the heat.

"I'm so bored!!" Goku Said"I wished something happened!!"

Some faint noises could be heard, but they weren't too clear. A minute later the noises became louder.

"What's going on?" Ryoga asked.

All of a sudden a lot of creatures started coming out of the volcano. Ash had no trouble identifying them. "They're Magmar! What are they doing?"

The magmar came out in dozens and were running past our heroes.

"They seem to be running away from something." Izzy Said

"Pika!! Pika!!"

All of a sudden Charizard came out flying. "Chaaaar!!"

Tentomon got scared and Said"OH NO!! We have to get out of here!!"

"What's going on Tentomon!?" Izzy Said

"The volcano is about to erupt, that's why the magmar are running away."

Everybody yelled "WHAAAT!!" They started running down the volcano, Ash clumsily tripped and would have rolled down the volcano had it not been for Charizard who picked him up. Pikachu jumped on top of Charizard- Ryoga took Izzy beneath his arm and helped him get down quicker, Tentomon flew behind them. Goku and Freya were skillfully jumping down.

Once they got to the base of the volcano they saw how it erupted and threw dozens of fiery rocks into the sky. Some were about to fall on the yellow team.

"Hia!!Hia!hia!hia!hia!" Goku yelled. He shot a series of small beams from his hands destroying all the rocks which could have hit them.

But many landed in several parts of the jungle, starting fires. One started near the Yellow team.

"Squirtle! I choose you!"

"Squirtle! Squirt squirt!"

"Squirtle! Use your water gun to put out the fire!"

Squirtle shot water at the fire. He was not going to take long extinguishing it.

"Squirtle will not be able to put out all the fires!" Izzy Said

"That's not our only problem. Look!!" Freya Said

Lava started to come down the volcano, heading toward the village.

"Shit!! Now what?" Ryoga yelled.

"We need to find a water source, a large one." Izzy Said

"Let's look for one!" Tentomon Said"Tentomon digivolves to... Kabuterimon!"

Izzy got on Kabuterimon and flew high above the volcano, a small lake could be seen at a short distance. "That won't be enough." Izzy Said"And the only other water source is the sea. But that's 10 miles away.

The rest of the team was wondering what to do. "I'm going to look for more water pokemon. You try to think of something. Let's go Pikachu" Ash called Charizard back and left running.

"Pika!" Pikachu ran behind him.

"What if we block the path with rocks?" Ryoga Said

"It may stop it from reaching the village, but it will reach the jungle and cause a large disaster as well. It could even go over them and might reach the village anyway." Freya Said

Kabuterimon came down and Izzy got off. "There's a small lake near here, but it's too small. The only truly large source of water would be the ocean."

"Great!! Now what?" Royga Said

"Well even though it's not enough we should try to guide the lava there no? At least it will buy us some time" Goku Said

"But how are we going to do it?" Freya Said

Izzy started to draw a diagram on the floor. "Well, we could try to guide the lava using rocks, but if we don't make the trail large enough it might overflow." He drew the path that would lead to the lake. "But we don't know where to get that many rocks."

"Hey Izzy! Maybe the villagers know!" Goku Said

"Good idea! I'll go to the village, you guys start to clear the path and make some sort of ditch to guide the lava." Izzy got on Kabuterimon again and flew towards the village.

"I'm going to look for Ash and try to clear the path." Freya Said before leaving.

"I'm going to work on the side of the volcano! You look for a way to make a ditch towards the lake!" Ryoga told Goku. "Baksai Tenketsu!!" Ryoga buried his finger into the side of the volcano and a crack started to run up, after a while the whole crack exploded making a nice path.

"Wow! You're going to have to teach me that one later!!" Said Goku.

"Sure, but get moving already! I have work to do!"

Goku left running.

Ash had gotten many pokemon to fight the fire. Golducks, poliwhirls, poliwags, staryus, starmies, squirtles, wartortles, totodiles, marills, azumarills and woopers were all fighting the fires.

"Few, I can't believe we could find so many, Misty would be proud. And even with all of these it's barely enough." Ask Said

"Pikaaaaa..."

"Ash! I need your help!" Freya Said

"What is it?"

"We plan to guide the lava to a nearby lake. We have to clear the path!"

"OK! Let's go!"

Ash and Freya arrived at the spot and started working right away. "Heracross! Bulbasaur! Chikorita! I choose you!" Ash's pokemon appeared. "I need you guys to clear the path in that direction!" Ash pointed in the lake's direction.

Ash's pokemon started working on cutting down trees and removing them from the path.

Freya cut trees quickly with her spear. After about 15 minutes of working Ash and Freya started to receive help from the villagers. Many of them had rocks and were already trying to pile them up.

The lava was about to reach the base of the volcano and it got into the path Ryoga had created. The villagers worked as fast as the could but the lava was coming closer.

"We won't make it in time!" Said the village chief.

"What can we do to make things quicker?" Ash Said

All of a sudden magmar started coming out of the jungle and started helping, many placed rocks while the villagers continued to cut down trees.

"Wow, the magmar are helping!" Freya Said, impressed by the magmars' noble actions.

"All right!" Ash yelled.

"Pika!"

A couple of minutes later everyone saw this huge boulder coming towards them. It was Goku who was pushing the boulder to make the ditch Izzy had told him to make. Goku was making steady but slow progress. The magmar started to help Goku push the boulder.

"Hehe, Thanks!" Goku Said

Izzy and Kabuterimon were watching everything from above. "They seem to be doing a pretty good job!" Kabuterimon Said

"Yeah, but we have to think of something else, the water of the lake won't be enough."

"What is Ryoga doing?"

"Huh? He is running up the volcano. But why?"

Ryoga had caught a glimpse of a white object running down the volcano on the lava. Ash's Squirtle was following him. After he got close enough he saw that it was a white box, Ryoga figured it was the box that continued the badge. Ryoga decided to follow it until he had a chance to get to it. Unfortunately the box hit a rock and it opened, revealing the badge.

"Damn! If I don't do something quick the badge will burn."

Ryoga decided to jump over the river of lava and attempt to grab the badge, if he didn't do it correctly he would die in the lava. Ryoga jumped and skillfully grabbed the badge. Unfortunately the badge was too hot and out of reflex he threw it upward before landing on the other side.

"Damn, I lost it!"

Suddenly Squirtle shot his water gun at the badge. The water cooled it down and at the same time pushed it in Ryoga's direction. Ryoga caught it and then gave a thumbs up to Squirtle.

"Squirtle squirtle!!" Squirtle had a big smile on his face.

The path had been finished in time, many villagers were still piling rocks at the sides so the lava would not burn itself out of the path. Ash and Pikachu had left to get Squirtle.

"This is a tragedy anyway." Said the village chief. "This lake is our village's source of water, and it's going to disappear."

"Not only that. It's not going to be enough." Freya Said

The lava finally reached the lake and curtain of steam started to raise from it. The villagers needed to get away.

All of a sudden it started raining, not just a little rain but it really started to pour. Everyone was running back to the village. The magmar left to look for a safe place.

Once they were all in the village Kabuterimon and Izzy landed. Izzy got off and Kabuterimon turned back to Tentomon.

"I have great news! The volcano calmed down, with all this rain and the path to the lake it should be enough to keep everyone safe."

"That's great!" Goku Said

Then they heard Ash's voice "Hey guys!"

Everyone turned around and saw Ash arriving at the village, he held Pikachu under his left arm and a black little piglet known as P-chan under his right arm.

Freya Said"Good, we're all here."

Once everyone was inside the chief's house they started to celebrate the safety of the whole jungle. Ash then held the badge above him. "And looked what Ryoga found!"

Everyone looked at the badge and cheered.

"I'm glad you were rewarded for your noble actions. You saved this village twice." the chief Said

"But all of this seems a bit too convenient, I mean everything all went our way all of a sudden. I mean the probability of all of this happening is next to nothing." Izzy Said

"Pikaa.."

"Let's just be glad it happened." Ash Said

The yellow team spent the rest of the day resting.

Sora and Biyomon were in another villager's hut. A woman was trying to control her kids who wanted to play outside. "Well, the yellow team avoided a massive disaster with their strength, skill, organization and their unbelievable luck! Well sometimes nature can be like that, or was it really nature responsible for this? Well the yellow team did get a badge for their efforts and that's a good thing."

Biyomon can be seen trying to get away from the children.

"Don't worry Biyomon, this is the last day we report from this village. So tell us what the Red team is doing Brock. This has been Sora bringing you the action of the Yellow Team."

It was nightfall. Brock was behind a bush and showed himself once he knew he was on. "Hello!" Brock wasn't talking too loudly "I'm here at the biggest mansion in Highthorn, the richest man of this village lives here. You may be asking why I'm here but this is the place where the special sidequest of the red team will take place. Well it appears the Red team is arriving so I'll just let you watch." Brock went back to hiding.

Trunks: "This is sooooo ironic."

Haruka: "Shhh!! Don't talk too loud."

Mako: "Does anybody see any guards."

Tai: "There were two in front of the gate. That's all I saw"

Trunks: "I mean a cop asking us to steal."

Mako: "Will you get over it? It's part of the challenge."

Quina: "I smell munchies inside."

Tai: "Not now Quina."

Agumon: "How are we going to get in Tai?"

Trunks: "I say we take out the guards one by one before they realize what is going on."

Haruka: "That's too risky. I say we avoid all the security devices and make away to the owner's livingroom."

Trunks: "With 6 of us walking around? That's going to be impossible!"

Mako: "I think Trunks is right. We're to many to be sneaking around."

Tai: "But we have to act quick. As soon as guards start ending up in the ground the others won't take long to see that something is wrong."

Quina: "Munchies?"

Mako: "There's no time for that."

Trunks: "Well here's the plan. Quina is going to distract the guards at the entrance, as soon as they go see what's going on Haruka and Mako are going to knock them out."

Agumon: "Then I just digivolve into Greymon and smash through the gate."

Tai: "No! We can't do it like that or the quest will be invalid. We have to steal the trophy, not grab it by force."

Agumon: "Sorry, but how are we going to get in then?"

Trunks: "We won't have another choice but to jump over the gate."

Tai: "Hey wait! I'm pretty athletic and stuff but I can't jump that high."

Haruka: "In that case Trunks and I will have to throw Tai, Agumon and... Quina over the gate."

Mako: "That's going to be tough."

Tai: "And what are we going to do after we get in?"

Trunks: "We're going to have to knock out all the guards one by one."

Haruka: "Have you considered surveillance cameras?"

Trunks: "Um.. no."

Tai: "Hey guys! We should use our number to our advantage. I mean there is a rule against us splitting up. But we could be apart during this no? I mean we're still all in the same area."

Mako: "Tai is right! Besides, they told us that rule could be stretched."

Tai: "I could try to cut of the electricity at the same time that Haruka and Mako knock out the guards."

Haruka: "Mako and I would take care of all the guards quickly."

Trunks: "And I would go into the house alone, that sounds like a better idea."

Tai: "See? I'm a good captain."

Quina: "What I do?"

Mako: "We just need you as a distraction. You'll be more useful in other situations."

Quina: "OK"

Haruka: "OK, we got a plan. Let's get to it."

The team went to get their plan in motion, but they hadn't realized a little guy had been watching them.

"Jiggly..."

Tai couldn't find the electric panel for the house so they left the mansion and went to look for the incoming electric wires. It didn't take long for them to find it.

"Tai! But won't the whole area be left without any electricity?" Agumon asked.

"Make's it less suspicious that something funny is going on." Tai responded.

"But how are we going to cut them without being electrocuted?"

"Hey Agumon, how much electricity do you think you could take as Greymon?"

"Tai! You're not suggesting that I.."

"Aw come on! It's just going to be a quick bite."

"Um..ok."

"I'm going to check in with the other guys, when I give you the signal you cut the cables!"

"Very well..." Agumon did not like the idea. "Agumon digivolves to.. Greymon!"

Many neighbors saw the large orange dinosaurs from their houses. Nobody Said anything in fear that it was their imagination.

Quina walked up to the mansion's gate and stood in front of the guards.

"What do you want?" Said one.

"Who cares about that? What ARE you? Said the other.

"I hungry! You have munchies for me?"

"No, get away."

Both guards got closer to Quina, in a instant both of them fell to the ground. Mako and Haruka were behind them.

Trunks got in front of the gate.

Tai saw the action and signaled Greymon. "NOW!!"

Greymon bit the wires trying to cut them. Sparks flew everywhere and Greymon was sent flying back, he turned back to Agumon before landing. The electricity was cut off.

Tai ran towards Agumon. "Are you OK?"

"Tai! I know I'm your partner and I will do anything for you. But PLEASE!! Please don't make me do something like that again!"

"You got it Agumon."

Trunks opened the gate and went inside. Haruka and Mako followed him.

As soon as Mako and Haruka were inside they went into hiding. Trunks made it to a side of the mansion without being seen.

Many guards were walking around carrying flashlights.

"What happened?"

"Something is wrong with the electricity."

"Someone check the gate!"

"I'm on it! Uff.." The guard had been hit on the head and was knocked unconscious.

"I'll go check on Mr. Kuoto."

"Has somebody checked the gate yet? Uff.." He was hit on the head also and was dragged behind some bushes.

Trunks went to the back door. He examined it and pointed his finger at the lock. He shot a tiny beam from his finger to destroy the lock and then opened the door. He was now in the kitchen. He checked around to see if there was anybody there, when he saw that nobody was there he went in. He moved into the dinner but suddenly the lights went back on.

"What the?" He went to hide beneath the dinner table.

Haruka and Mako noticed the lights were back on.

One guard came running towards another "About time! Why did you take so long to turn on the backup generator?"

"Sorry, that thing is old. Took a while to get it going."

They now noticed many men were missing.

"What's going on!?"

"I want everybody to search the whole garden. And I need some of you to follow into the mansion."

Mako was hiding behind a bush. "Shit!! Now what?"

Haruka was behind a tree, some guards were heading her way. "We didn't count on this."

Mako and Haruka were about to be discovered when all of a sudden a small little guy appeared in the center of the garden. "Jigglypuff" He had microphone in hand.

"Hey what's that?" Said a guard.

"Don't know but we have to get rid of it."

Jigglypuff started singing. "Jiiiigglypuuff jiggleeee eepuff, Jiiigglypuuff jiggleeeee!"

All the guards started falling asleep. Haruka and Makoto feel asleep as well.

Jigglypuff noticed everyone was asleep and got angry, he took the microphone's top off and revealed a marker.

Inside the house a guard was looking outside.

Mr. Kuoto was in the livingroom, he was an old man on a wheelchair. "What is going on!?"

"I.. I don't know sir. Our men are all laying on the ground."

"Well don't just stand there! Do something!"

"Yes sir!" They went into the dinning room.

I small grunt was heard and then everything was quiet. Mr. Kuoto became suspicious and yelled "What are you guys doing!? I'm going to fire all your butts if you don't figure out what's going on!"

He went to the dinning room only to find the two guards laying on the ground. "You good for nothing..."

Trunks was hiding beneath the the table as he heard the man yell every obscenity known to mankind. He then saw him heading towards the kitchen.

"Why couldn't I hire guards that knew what they were doing."

Trunks was able to sneak by and get to the livingroom, he saw the trophy on a small pedestal next to stairs. He took it and placed it in a bag. He made it back to the dinningroom and peeked into the kitchen to see if Mr. Kuoto was still there. All he saw was Quina, he/she was eating everything in the refrigerator.

"Quina? How did you get in here?"

"I invisible."

"You can make yourself invisible?"

"I make anybody invisible, but not for long."

"Why didn't you tell us you could do that? That would have been of great help."

"You not ask."

"I should have expected that. Where is the old guy in a wheel chair?"

"He be there." Quina pointed to the stove.

Mr. Kuoto was in front of it and he was unconscious.

"What did you do to him."

"I do nothing, he just stop moving."

Trunks moved towards Mr. Kuoto to check his pulse. "We'll he's still alive. He must have fainted when he saw you."

"Maybe he hungry and too weak to keep moving."

Trunks laughed. "Well if that is the case then his guards will feed him. Let's go."

Trunks and Quina went outside to find everybody laying on the ground. Their faces were painted over.

"What happened?"

"I not know, but funny."

They later found Haruka and Makoto who were in the same state. They woke them up and hurried up to leave the mansion.

Tai and Agumon were waiting outside. They couldn't help but laugh when they saw Haruka and Mako's faces.

Haruka had a small beard drawn to hear chin, spirals on her checks and two thick lines as eyebrows.

Mako had a long mustache that almost reached her ears, she had lines beneath her eyes that looked like tears and little stars on her forehead.

"Stop it! Let's get out of here." Haruka Said

The whole team left the mansion.

Trunks showed the trophy to officer Jenny.

Jenny Said"Well, I saw what you did. It was kind of messy."

"Yeah, but nobody saw us. Well, only the owner got a glimpse of Quina."

"Guess you're right. And the whole scene was pretty funny. I'll give you the badge."

The team cheered, Tai and Agumon resumed their laughter when they got a good look at Haruka and Mako. Trunks and Jenny couldn't help but to laugh too.

"Is there a place where we can wash our faces?" Mako Said

"Sure, the restroom is that way." Officer Jenny pointed to a door to the left. "Oh, and Tai. Please open your hand."

Tai opened his hand and Jenny gave him their first badge.

"Yay!" Agumon yelled.

"All right! We got our first badge!" Tai Said

"Great, lets go get a good night sleep so we can start looking for the second." Trunks Said

After the team left the police station Brock went with officer Jenny. "Hi Officer Jenny! My name is Brock and did you know you're the prettiest of all the Jennies?"

Jenny Said"No I didn't, thanks."

"Do you want to celebrate on behalf of the Red team? I know this charming little place."

"Well I have to give this trophy back to Mr. Kuoto."

Brock took the trophy. "I'll do it for you!"

Just then the door to the station opened and Mr. Kuoto came in. "I've been robbed!"
Jenny got nervous, she did the only thing she thought at the moment. "Don't worry Mr. Kuoto. As you can see I have caught the thief already."

Brock was surprised. "But..but.."

Jenny put the handcuffs on Brock. "No buts! You've committed the crime and now you'll do the time." She then took the trophy from Brock's hands and gave it back to Mr. Kuoto.

Mr. Kuoto was pleased. "You're a great officer Ms. Jenny. It's good to know I can at least depend on our competent police force."

"Thank you Mr. Kuoto."

Brock faced the camera. "It's not necessary that you keep seeing this so I have to let you go now. I'll see you next time in the Ultimate Challenge! I hope."
