Keramon's attack and Reunion

In the Digital World Ash and Pikachu get a good look at what's causing problems in the real world.

"I've never seen a Digimon like this." Ash admitted.

"Pika." Pikachu added.

"It seems this Digimon is brand new to you, Ash." Agumon said.

"Is this even a Digimon? If so, I suspect a human is involved with it's creation." Ash theorized.

"You might be right, Ash. Izzy would be impressed with your assumption." Tentomon said. Then, they observed the Digimon digivolve.

"Pika pi." Pikachu said. The baby Digimon was now in a new form.

"Digivolving this quickly. How would that be possible on the Internet?" Ash asked.

Then they took a look at the screen.

"Hey, he sent us a email." Palmon said.

Ash read the email.

It said "I'm hungry."

Gabumon then spoke.

"Would Tai call for a pizza?" Ash then became alarmed.

"Oh, Muk. He's eating computer data on the Internet." It then digivolved once again.

"What are we going to do, Ash?" Patamon asked.

"We need to stop it before any more damage is done." ShineGreymon answered. "No choice then."

"Time for us to assemble the Digidestined. Tai needs to be contacted so you guys can enter the Internet."

As they celebrate, Biyomon led Ash to the side.

"Ash, are you sure you won't join us on the Internet?" Biyomon questioned.

"To be honest, I have no idea if a human and Pokemon can be transported there." Then Gennai approaches him.

"You can. The master digivice is capable of allowing you two to enter the Internet." Gennai explained. A smile formed on Ash's face.

"Guys, the others need to be emailed." Ash said

(Odaiba)

"Are you telling me, we're just going to watch this thing destroy everything." Tai demanded as he saw Keramon on the screen alongside Izzy.

"I wish Agumon was here." He remarked, hearing Agumon's voice.

"Tai, Tai!" Agumon called out.

"It's like I can hear him now." Tai muttered. The voice spoke again.

"You can hear me now." Agumon repeated. Tai wasn't paying attention to him.

"I sure wish he was here." Tai said.

"I am here." Agumon said once again, finally getting his attention.

"Agumon? Where are you?" Tai asked as Izzy looked down at the computer.

"It's a transmission from the Digital World." Izzy told him as the two spot Agumon and Gennai.

"Agumon!" Tai shouted.

"And he's with Gennai!" Izzy exclaimed.

"It's been a long time." Gennai said, then Tentomon appeared on the screen.

"Don't you forget me." Tentomon said.

"Tentomon!" Then Biyomon, Gabumon, Gomamon, Palmon, Patamon, Gatomon and ShineGreymon enter through a door. Tai and Izzy were happy to see them, but then became upset.

"Everyone's here except Ash and Pikachu."

"Yeah, I miss them as well."

"Well if you miss him that badly, why don't you tell him that yourself." ShineGreymon smirked.

"What?" Tai and Izzy gasped before noticing him.

"Ash, I can't believe you're here." Tai said.

"It's great to see you again." Izzy added.

"It's been two years since we went our separate ways and it's great to see you guys as well." Tai and Izzy asked him a question.

"Ash, do you know why you're here?" Tai questioned.

"Yeah, Gennai let me know about the Digimon/virus hybrid wreaking havoc on the internet." Ash explained.

"We found a way to enter the internet." Gabumon stated.

"We'll always be there to help you guys." Patamon said.

"We told Gennai to transport Ash and Pikachu to the Digital World." Biyomon added.

"Biyomon did you just say that because of Sora and you missed them." Izzy teased. Biyomon then blushed after Izzy said this.

"Why won't you boys mind your own business on matters regarding love." Biyomon shouted.

"You have your Digivice, Izzy?" Tai asked him.

"I'm one step ahead of you." Izzy answered.

"Ash, do you still have the master digivice and legendary crest." Tai said.

"I always come prepared, guys." Ash told them.

"Our digivices will help you digivolve and with Ash's combined form, we'll squash that bug." Tai said slipping his goggles on as they cheered as Gennai told them that Agumon and Tentomon with head to the net as Izzy asked Ash something.

"Ash, why are you not joining us on the internet?" Izzy asked.

"Our energy is drained from a fight in our world and we need to rest for a minute." Ash explained.

"I'll call the other digidestined to help us out." Tai picked up the phone and contacted their parents, but they said everyone else was busy.

"Izzy, I need you to call Sora for me." Tai handed the phone to him. He calls Sora's apartment and her mother answered. She explained that Sora wasn't home before hanging up.

"Sora's mom said she's not home." Izzy informed him.

"Who needs her." Tai muttered. Ash wanted to get to the bottom of what's going on between them.

"Tai, what's going on between you and Sora?" He asked.

"None of your business Ash." Tai snapped.

"Ash, why don't you tell her. She'll listen to you." Izzy told him.

"I'll begin a video conversation as soon as possible." He replied.

"Thanks." Izzy said with a smile.

(Sora's apartment)

"He better not send me a email." Sora stared at her computer waiting for a email.

"No it's not okay, stupid Tai." She said as she went to close the computer screen when another message popped up and a familiar voice called out.

"Don't you dare, Sora!" Ash shouted. She saw Ash, Pikachu and Biyomon.

"Ash, Pikachu and Biyomon. I can't believe you guys are here." Sora said, overjoyed to see her boyfriend and Digimon partner again.

"Sora, we need your help." He explained. "Do you still have your digivice?"

"Yes, why?" Sora asked.

"There's a Digimon wreaking havoc on the internet and we need all the help we can get. Are you in?"

"Is Tai there? If so, I'm not joining you." Ash then recalled what Tai told him early.

"Sora, you need to tell me what happened between the two of you." He insisted.

"Well, Tai and I got into a fight after I received a hair clip for my birthday and accused him of not liking my hairstyle. We haven't spoken to each other for two years." Sora explained.

"That's ridiculous." ShineGreymon muttered in annoyance.

"I agree. Staying mad at Tai this long isn't a good thing. You two need to apologize to each other." Ash instructed.

Sora took his advice to heart and then smiled.

"When do we leave Ash?" She asked her boyfriend.

Greymon and Kabuterimon's battle was displayed.

"That's what's causing trouble?" Sora questioned.

"Yeah, but it seems Greymon and Kabuterimon are doing well."

Then there was a troubling new development.

"Keramon digivolve to Infermon!"

Keramon turned into a spider-like Digimon the four had never seen before.

"He digivolved to the champion level." Sora stated.

"I don't think so." ShineGreymon corrected her. "I'm heading onto the net to help Greymon and Kabuterimon."

ShineGreymon passed through the door and was immediately on the internet.

Ash took a closer look at it after hearing what ShineGreymon said.

"Guys, you have to defeat this thing quickly. It's a ultimate level Digimon."

"Ash is right, he's too strong for our Digimon now."

"Well, they'll just have to digivolve again." Infermon got closer and closer while they were digivolving before going on the attack. The smoke cleared as MetalGreymon and MegaKabuterimon revert back into their rookie forms. Infermon then crawled down a tunnel and disappeared.

"Agumon, are you okay?" Tai asked, concerned.

"Don't take me out, coach." Agumon said.

"Tentomon!" Izzy yelled.

"I'm fine. One question, who is Tentomon?" The rookie level Digimon asked.

"Don't worry Tai, they just need to rest." Izzy reassured his friend.

"I can't believe two Digimon lost to one lousy bug." Tai groaned.

ShineGreymon flew into the area and scanned it for Infermon before speeding down another tunnel.

"We'll help ShineGreymon find him while your partners recover. Pikachu, I and Biyomon will join you on the internet." Ash said.

"Ash is right. We still have plenty of time." Sora said. Then everyone heard Infermon answer the phones.

"Guys! I get the feeling that Infermon's searching for somebody." Ash theorized.

"You really think so?" Sora asked.

"Yeah, earlier I suspected a human has some involvement in Infermon's creation. He must be using the internet in a attempt to find his creator." Ash answered.

"That's a solid theory Ash." Izzy smiled. They were beginning to come up with a plan when Tai was contacted by Matt and T.K.

"Hey guys, we got Tai's phone call." Matt said. Tai picked up the phone.

"Matt, do you and T.K have your digivices?" He asked. Matt looked at his younger brother.

"Did you pack them?" Matt questioned.

"This is T.K. Of course we have them, what's going on?" T.K asked.

"There's a Digimon terrorizing the internet. Agumon and Tentomon attempted to fight it, but they need more help." Izzy explained.

"We're on it, but we could use more help." T.K said. "If only Ash was here."

"Did someone mention my name just now." He smirked.

"Ash, do you think your combined form can beat Infermon?" T.K questioned the raven-haired trainer.

"Yes, I'm only bringing Pikachu with me. See you guys on the internet." They nodded.

Ash then headed for the door and walked out of the apartment.

"Ash, I just want you to know that I'm happy to see you again." Sora told him as tears trailed down her face.

"Yeah, I'm happy to see you again too." Ash replied as Biyomon flew over to him.

"Aw, I knew you two would reunite someday." Ash looked at her with a smile.

"Yeah, love never dies." He retorted.

"Hey Ash, will Infermon kill your combined form?" Gomamon asked.

Something was on his mind though.

"Infermon won't be the one that does me in. That honor belongs to May."

Speaking of her, what was going on in Ash's dimension.

(Pallet Town)

"What am I going to do? Ash traveled to another dimension to help the Digidestined and their partners. There's also the fact he has a girlfriend. Ash, when you return we need to talk." May said as a voice called out.

"Hey May, what's up?" May turned around and saw Ash's childhood friend, Serena.

"Hi Serena, just enjoying a walk. What brings you here?" May asked.

"I came to find Ash. His mother said that he was heading to the lake." Serena explained. May then came up with a excuse.

"No, I was looking for him as well. He's not here, but he mentioned he was heading towards Mt. Moon to go on a walk. You'll probably find him there."

Serena shot her a suspicious look. She knew something was up, but played along anyway.

"Okay May. Let's go look for him together. Our friends will join us as well." May paused.

"Yeah, bringing all our friends with us. That's a good idea." May thought as they walk back to Ash's house to meet the others before heading in the direction of Mt. Moon. The rest of his friends had no idea he was in the digital world.

(Team Rocket HQ)

"So what you're saying is a trainer and Pikachu possess the ability to combine and assume a humanoid form." Giovanni said to Jessie, James and Meowth.

"Yes, he's very strong and clever as well." Meowth explained.

"Do you actually expect me to believe your story?" Giovanni asked mockingly.

Then they notice James was holding something.

"James, what is that?" Jessie asked.

"I brought this just in case we were victorious. I managed to record him." James shows Giovanni the video of Voltachu.

"That's him, boss." Meowth explained.

"Yeah, he's extremely powerful." Jessie added.

"Well then. I want to know more about these two. His DNA will be useful to Team Rocket as we take over the Kanto Region. Find him and bring him here." Giovanni ordered.

"We'll finally be able to capture Pikachu." James said.

"Remember I want both of them." Giovanni reminded the three.

"Yes, we're on it." Meowth said as the trio left.

Back in the Digital World...

Ash looks around and decides to go down memory lane. He then spotted a island.

"I wonder what that island is." Ash wondered.

"That would be File Island." Patamon informed him.

"That's where you battled Devimon." Ash guessed.

"Yes, I digivolved to Angemon for the first time there." Patamon explained.

"Was Devimon a tough opponent for Tai and the others?" Ash asked.

"He was. During one of our battles File Island was broken apart and we were separated. Leomon and Ogremon were sent to destroy T.K, but then we made our final stand against Devimon. The others attempted to battle him, but were overpowered. Then he targeted T.K, forcing me to digivolve into Angemon. Eventually, I sacrificed my life to destroy Devimon." Patamon finished his story.

When Patamon was done, Ash felt sorry for him.

"But you managed to reunite with T.K." He pointed out.

"Yeah. Then you came to the Digital World and helped us." Patamon said as they heard Biyomon.

"Mind if I see the view." Biyomon said. They nodded and Biyomon stared at the island before turning to Ash.

"Hey Ash, after the battle do you plan on returning to your dimension?" She asked. Ash stared at her.

"Yeah, but I'm not entirely sure. I want to go back, but I don't want to hurt Sora. If I leave, she'll be upset." Ash admitted as Gennai came over.

"You have a tough choice to make Ash. Listen to your heart. It will help you make a decision." Gennai informed him. Ash thought about his words.

'He's right. My heart will help me determine what I should do.' Ash thought.
