Dante is happy Micah and Red are okay, and glad that Raziya is back, but he is worried about Wormmon. "I don't know where we look first." Dante looks at the surrounding area. All he sees are old broken down buildings. "Looks like something big must have happened here." Dante hears something getting closer. A group of Pagumon come hoping over. "Hey! What are you doing here?" "We were battling Etemon when all of a sudden we wound up here." The Pagumon gasp and whisper to each other. "Etemon?! He's back? Oh, this is terrible! He's the one who destroyed this city."
Raziya walks up to the Pagumon. "Destroyed the city? Why would he do such a thing?" "Beats me! This used to be one of the biggest cities in the Digital world. So many great places to eat. But then one night, a concert got out of hand, and what do ya know? Etemon turned it into this dump. We were living somewhere else at the time, but some Digimon told us what happened. Now, we are the only ones who live here." Dante is mad at Etemon and Syn. All he wanted to do was help out a friend, and now he's stumbled into a huge adventure. "We are looking for Etemon. You wouldn't know where he is, do you?"
"If he's back, he's probably in that secret hideout underground. Every now and then we see trucks diving by delivering supplies. It's the only way we get any kind of food around here. We can take you there if you want." Dante is not sure if they should trust the Pagumon, but he really wants to get Wormmon back, so against his better judgment he decides to work with the Pagumon. "I guess that would be okay. What do you guys think?" "We don't really have any other option. Now that Etemon is back, Syn's organization is likely going to start capturing different territories." Dante senses that Raziya knows more about this mission than she is leading on. "You seem to know a lot about what's going on. Is there anything you'd like to tell us?" Raziya stays silent for a moment. She looks down with a grim face, then looks up. "I'll explain everything later. There's something you guys need to know. Not even Cornette understands what's really going on."

micah looked around taking in their surrounding dante was right this place looked to be the ruines of a city. Micah nodded agreeing with dante, she frowned it was sad to see this city reduced to ruins. She looked over in the direction of the sound of something getting closer and watched as dante talked to the group of in-training digimon. Red listened closely and became enraged when he heard what etemon had done to the city, micah looked pretty angry too so many digimon must have lost their homes and some family members based on the destruction before them.
Red perked up when he heard were etemon might be found, he clenched his fists "don't worry we'll make sure he never dos this to any other place anymore! we'll stop him!" he shouted determined to defeat etemon no matter what. Micah nodded, she agreed with her partner 100% on this and will help him and defeat etemon and save thier new friends. Red and micah then looked at dante and raziya after dante had asked raziya was hiding something form them, they both frowned when raziya had hesitated to say anything and told them that she would explain later. Red and micah looked at each other knowing that raziya was going to tell them very bad news.

The four of them follow the Pagumon down to the road. The Pagumon get in a very strange vehicle. It appears to be a wooden cart with an engine in front, and has 6 wheels. The cart is too small for the tamers to ride in. "Uh, ya. This is what we ride around in. Looks like you guys are gonna have to walk." Dante looks at Micah and Raziya, then back at the Pagumon. "I'm okay with walking, but I don't know what you two think." Raziya takes offense to what Dante said. "Please! Just because we're girls doesn't mean we can't take care of ourselves. I'm fine with walking." "Okay, didn't know it was rude to be considerate." The Pagumon start driving at a slow pace, and the group follows behind them.
"So you were saying?" "I'm getting to it. I just don't know where to begin. It all goes back to that saxophone. You already know it is passed down from one violinist to their student. But it's about more than playing music. They were all tamers. That saxophone has certain powers over Digimon. The last tamer to own it is the one who turned Etemon to stone. But about 6 months ago, they decided to pass it on to their top student, and a great tamer. That's when the organization Syn is working for made their move. After stealing the saxophone, they kept it off the radar by having one of their bands keep it safe. To protect it, they had Syn keep watch until the heat died down. But when we interfered, Syn made the call to revive Etemon earlier than planned."
"But why would they revive Etemon?" "Before Etemon was turned to stone, he was their top selling musician. And now that he's back, they will stop at nothing to get back to the top. They will do whatever it takes to sell more records, no matter the cost. And even worse, Etemon has been known to lose his temper, and go on a rampage." Dante is deeply disturbed to hear all this, but he is glad to finally know more about what's going on. "Well, I was hired to return this saxophone, but I'm going to do whatever it takes to bring this organization down!" The group is getting closer to the entrance. "Not much farther. We will show you where to go, but we don't want them to see us."

Micah nodded "its alright dante, we can walk" she said quietly, red nodded and began to walk but was surprised when data surrounded him and he found himself in the fusion loader "hey!! micah what's the big idea!!!!?" he yelled his voice coming from the loader. Micah began to walk along with dante and raziya "you need to rest, you cant defeat the enemy only on half heath" she said as she listened to what the in-trainings were telling the group. red was about to object but he sighed in a disappointed manner, something told him he wasn't going to win this argument "fine but the first sign of trouble and im coming out " he stated as he crossed his arms. At the moment he was floating in the large empty space of the loader, he was slowly being healed of his injuries from the data around him. Micah smiled happy that she had won this time and listened to the digimon as they said the last part. she nodded agreeing with dante she was going to help as well and hopefully they would succeed this time.

Wormmon watches Syn type at the computer from a distance. (Thinking) "I hope the others are on their way. These creeps are making me so angry!" Trent walks up to Syn. "So do you really think we are doing the right thing?" "What ever do you mean?" "I knew this job was going to be shady, but I didn't think Raziya would be involved." Syn stops what he is doing and looks at Trent. "We were hired to do a job. Any morality is a hindrance." "I just can't understand how you can be so heartless. Those tamers never did anything to deserve this. Why did you capture Lalamon?" "Because I was assigned to. And I never abandon a mission." Trent is really having second thoughts about taking this assignment. He was good friends with, Raziya, and he stabbed her in the back, destroying the trust she had in him. "See to it that this doesn't affect your performance." "Yes, Agent Syn. I was out of line. I would never think of not giving my all." Wormmon continues watching. (Thinking) "Wow, what a baby. But that Syn is something else. I've never seen anybody act that way. I know humans that are mean, or cold, but this guy is something different all together. Where's his heart? He's got the personality of a robot. Oh, I'd love to see Rob kick that sucka's butt!"
The tamers and the Pagumon reach a road leading up a mountain. "Up there is a cave. It's not that much further. But they probably have great surveillance." "Thank you, Pagumon. You were most generous." "Don't mention it. We just wanna stick it to Etemon! But it wouldn't kill ya to come back with some food and money or something." "You got it. Once all this is over, I'll see to it you get what you deserve." The three tamers start walking up the mountain. The cave isn't that high up. Dante wonders what it's going to be like to try and take on an entire organization of evil Digimon. And he's still not sure how to handle Syn. Dante runs his hand over the hole in his leather jacket. "We're going to bring them down. I don't know how yet, but Syn is going to pay." "They will all pay. I trusted Trent. He helped me out when I was desperate. I never would have thought we'd be fighting against each other."
One of the Gazimon watching the security monitors sees the tamers. "Hey boss! We've got intruders. Looks like two redheads, and a girl with dark braided hair." "What are they thinking? They are just going to walk right in? Amateurs. I'm activating the facility's defenses." Syn is about to bring up the defense protocalls when Wormmon closes in and fires a sticky net right at Syn's face. "How you ya like me now, dumby?"

Micah watched as the pagumon left in their little car looking transportation. She turned around and began to follow dante and raziya, she looked around, she grew slightly worried they were out in the open in enemy territory. She looked over at dante and raziya, they didn't look very worried about the situation. Micah sighed looks like they would have to walk in since it looked like it was to late for a plan to sneak inside. She just hopped that they were not spotted yet. Red was floating around the loader space, he still had his arms crossed as he rambally floated around the space. He couldn't wait to beat syncs and etemon's faces in and trent that guy deserved at lest one punch in the face. He sighed in frustration, he really wanted to fight.

Syn tries to wipe the web off his face, but gets his hands stuck. "Argh! Blasted little pest!" Syn is unable to activate the facility's defenses. Dante, Micah, and Raziya enter the cave. They reach a large garage for vans dropping off supplies. A Gazimon holding a remote control approaches them. "Where do you think you are going?" Gazimon activates the remote. A large machine Digimon gets out of the back of one of the trucks. They approach the group and take up a battle stance. "What is that thing?! This is not good." Wormmon runs away from Syn. They go up the stairs and down a hallway. Wormmon hears something coming from down one of the halls. Wormmon turns and follows the noise.
Gazimon smirks. "We just got this baby yesterday. It's a top of the line security android. Surrender now, and you won't be blown to pieces by dozens of rockets!" Dante isn't sure what to do. He has no idea how powerful that android is. Wormmon comes running down the hall, as fast as his tiny legs can go. They reach the garage and see the group. Wormmon's face lights up. "Dante! You're here!" Dante hears Wormmon, and is delighted to have them back. "Wormmon! I'm so glad you are alright." Raziya hopes her partner is safe too. She really misses Lalamon. Dante gives Wormmon a hug, but the pleasantries soon end, and their attention is directed at the android. "Looks like we gotta send this piece of scrap metal to the dump. Time to take out all our rage modern technology causes." Dante turns to the others, and they all know surrender is not an option. "If we are going down, we are taking you all with us!"

Micah sighed when they entered the cave unscathed, it looked like they hadn't been spotted. She thought they were in the clear until a gazimon spotted them, her eyes widened when he used the remote and summoned an android it looked really strong. She walked in front of the group since she was the only one with a digimon at the moment she would have to take it on. She pointed her loader forward and instantly red materialized out of it in a stream of data, he twirled his mic he was healed up and full of energy. "alright bring it on bucket of bolts!, im raring to go!!!" he shouted and got ready to attack.
Micah turned when she thought she had heard quick foot falls, at first she was worried that it was more of the gazimon coming to attack. But was happy to find that it was only wormmon, she watched as dante hugged wormmon and smiled. However her smile fell when she saw raziya. She put a hand on her shoulder "don't worry well get your partner back" she said in a reassuring manner. Red watched his tamer with a smile before turning back to the android with a scowl on his face "alright pal! lets get this over with!!" he shouted and ran at the andriod, his mic burst into flames as he twirled it "ROCK N ROLLER!!!" he shouted as he stopped it grabbing it with both hands and attacked.

Raziya was happy Micah was comforting her. She hopes they can rescue Lalamon, but knows many powerful foes lurk inside. Red rushes towards the android and hits them with a vicious rock and roller, doing moderate damage and pushing them back. "Ha! It's gonna take more than that." Gazimon pushes a button on the remote. Several rockets appear from the armor on the android. They fire the rockets at the group. Dante crouches down over Wormmon as the blasts go off around the group. "Looks like your new toy isn't very accurate." Wormmon shoots a silk thread at the android, dealing light damage.
"We can't even scratch that thing. Its armor is too tough." Dante thinks of a way to defeat the android. Gazimon activates the rockets again. Multiple rockets come out of the armor. "That's it! We have to attack when the rockets are out." The android fires the rockets, several land near the group, dealing light damage to Wormmon and Red. Wormmon shoots a sticky net at Gazimon. "Hey, that's not fair!" The android just stands there with the rockets sticking out of the armor, creating several gaps. "Now's your chance, Red, blast that tinker toy!"

Micah smiled and turned back to her partner as he hit directly at the android, she grew alarmed however when the andriod began to shot rockets at the group. She took cover some rockets sailed over her and reds heads, a few had exploded near them giving them miner injures. Micah had received a thin gash on her arm from sharp pieces of cave hitting her arm, She didn't seem to notice however because she was more worried about her tame mates and partner. She sighed in relief when she saw that they were all ok besides a few miner injures.
Red and micah turned to dante when he said that they needed to hit the android when it was firing its rockets. Micah nodded and turned to her partner who was charging up his attack. They both focused on the android, when they heard dante say to hit the android now red was ready. "you got it!!!, alright say good night!!!" the ball of fire in his hands grew slightly and he reeled back "FIERY FASTBALL!!!" he shouted and threw the ball directly at the robot.

Red's fastball lands underneath the android's exposed armor. The flames engulf the android from the inside out. "Way to go Red! Extra crispy." Gazimon panics, and starts pushing buttons rapidly, but the android does not respond. The group approaches the Gazimon. "Hey, it's not what it looks like! I wasn't really trying to hurt ya. Please just let me go!" Dante doesn't want to hurt Gazimon. He knows they were only following orders, and they have bigger fish to fry. "Just tell us were Syn is." "Dante, I know where." "Well then, I guess you've outlived your usefulness." Gazimon is terrified. They start running out of the cave. "Ha, what a baby."
Reunited with Wormmon, the group goes down the hallway. They follow Wormmon down to the facility's headquarters. Syn is waiting for them there. "Just what do you possibly hope to accomplish?" Dante looks at Syn with evil intentions in his eyes. "We're here to stop you." Syn just shrugs. "We can't be stopped. Etemon is back, and his comeback album is going to top the charts. Even if we have to, sabotage the competition." "That's just like you. Using sleazy tactics, harming the innocent, you think you're this great agent, with all your fancy tricks and toys, but you're just a bully. Pushing people around to get what you want when you'll never deserve it. Today is the day for finally pay for your crimes!"
Syn is thrown off by Dante's speech. "Oh, how little you know. My crimes? You think enslaving a few Digimon is the worst thing I've ever done? You know nothing about me, my past, or my rap sheet. I've stolen top secret government plans. I've doomed entire cities to poverty. I've even assassinated royal emperors. If anything, this music scam is an act of charity." Dante is mortified by hearing Syn talk about his past. He has no idea if he's really telling the truth, but something about him convinces Dante that Syn really did what he said. Wormmon approaches Syn. "I don't care if you are a magical space man! I'm going to kick your butt with every one of my little bug feet!" Syn chuckles at Wormmon.
"Tell you what. If you can beat this next Digimon, I'll release Lalamon, and let you all return to the Human World. You get to keep the saxophone, and we sell millions of records. Everybody wins. But if you lose, your Digimon are going to be peddling merchandise on the road for the next 10 years." "You're on, ya big meanie! We're not gonna lose to another one of your lackeys." Syn pulls out a black card with a strange white design on it. He takes out a strange looking digivice. It looks like it has been custom built with parts from other digivices. Syn slides the card through the scanner on the proto device. A bizarre black ooze comes out of the digivice and covers Syn. The group watches on in shock as Syn takes the form of a Digimon. It is covered in futuristic black and white armor, with a strange looking space helmet. It also has a large reptilian like tail. "I am Charamon. Initiating battle protocol."

Micah smiled and high fived red, they were happy that they had managed to defeat the andriod. Micah frowned when she heard th gazimons pleads, she had patted the rabbit looking digimon on the head and smiled at it in a reassuring manner. She felt bad for the poor rookie, she silently promised that she would destroy etemon so that the gazimon could be free. She then walked after her partner and teammates. Just when she thought that they were in the clear again they ran into the ringmaster himself.
Red growled as sync talked about his crimes and compared to those this was his less cruel one. Micah was growing rapidly angry with sync, if he didn't act like a human then he wasn't going to recive mercy from her like she would give to a human. Just when she was about to direct her partner, she stopped when he took out an odd digivice and became a ugly looking digimon. Even red was surprised, micah recovered first and became determined "red let's show em!" She whisper yelled copying her partners mobster like accent. Red snapped out of his stupor after hearing his partner, he smiled and began to charge up his attack "you got it micah!!" he shouted with a huge goofy grin on his face. Micah turned to dante and raziya "any ideas on how to beat this guy?" she asked, they needed to work together if they wanted to win.

Dante just stood there in shock at Syn's transformation. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. Syn had always seemed strange, but some kind of cyber assassin? Dante knew they were no match for Syn. He must've defeated very powerful opponents before. What chance could Dante and the others stand against this destroyer? Charamon charges at the group with lethal speed and punches Dante in the stomach. He grabs Dante by the arm and throws him into some computer equipment. Raziya grabs Micah and runs over to hide beyind cover, pulling Micah by the hand behind Raziya. Wormmon feels horrible Charamon attacked Dante. Wormmon jumps up towards Charamon trying to land a headbutt, but Charamon just swats Wormmon, sending them flying across the room into some equipment.
Dante struggles to his feet, holding his chest in pain. Blood drips from his mouth as he gasps for air. Syn approaches Shoutmon. Dante charges towards Charamon from behind, but they turn around and hit Dante with a forearm shot, knocking down Dante. "Ahh! You stupid machine!" "Eliminating targets." Charamon activates a laser cannon on his arm. Before he fires, everyone suddenly hears a large door open from the other side of the room. Charamon sees three men standing in the door way. Raziya looks up. "It's Trent!" "What's going on here?!" Trent takes a few steps forward. "I'm afraid you are being terminated from your contract." "Fool. I never abandon a mission." Charamon fires an energy blast towards Trent. It hits a few feet above the doorway. The three men run into the room. "I'm not letting you get away with this. I will pay for my crimes by stopping you!"

Micah was startled as she saw dante get beaten by the human turned digimon. She was about to divert the digimons attention but stopped when raziya had taken her hand and dragged her away to safety. Red watched with wide eyes at charamons speed and brutal attacks, he gripped his mic hard in rage watching the cruel human beat up dante. He growled and began to twirl his mic as the machine turned it attention to him. But before he could attack or before the enemy could they were interrupted by trent who managed to distract the hum/digimon. Red took this to his advantage and ran at charamon "take this!!! BELOW BLASTER!!!" he shouted and screeched into his mic.

Red catches Charamon off guard with the sound blast. It damages Charamon's internal circuitry, temporarily disabling some of his abilities. "Error! Connection not found." Trent and one of the men run over to the main computer. The 3rd man runs over to Dante. "Cornette, is that you?" "That's right. Trent told me everything. I'm so sorry for getting you mixed up in this mess. If I'd known what was really going on, I never would have asked." "Don't worry, Syn and Etemon both need to be stopped." Cornette helps Dante stand up. Wormmon gets up and dusts themselves off. Wormmon crawls over to Micah and Raziya. Cornette helps carry Dante over.
Trent opens a program on the computer. "I know you're being powered by the main generator. I'll stop you even if I have to shut this whole facility down!" Charamon rushes towards Trent and grabs him by the throat. "Here's what happens to traitors!" Charamon turns their right hand into a razor sharp spike and pierces Trent through the chest. Raziya cries out. "Trent! NOOO!" Trent falls to the ground, clinging to life. Charamon fires a tranquilizer dart at the other man by the computer, hitting him in the neck and putting them to sleep. Charamon attaches a bomb to the main computer, and runs towards the group. The bomb goes off, destroying the main computer. "Now no one will stop me!"
Wormmon shoots a sticky net at Charamon, but Charamon fires an energy blast, vaporizing the net in midair. "Systems back online. Operating at full capacity." "Great, how do we stop this killing machine?" Charamon walks slowly towards the group. They point the energy cannon right at them and charge up a powerful blast. "And now my least favorite part of the mission. When I break my toys." Wormmon thinks for a moment. Normally they would think of what Rob would do, but this time they did something Dante does when his back is against the wall. "Hey, but aren't you forgetting something important there, Charamon?" "And what would that be?" "Oh come on, you already forgot? I guess your processor can only handle so much at one time." "I assure you my hardware is top of the line!" "Okay, then. I guess I don't have to remind you about what happens when you unleash a blast that powerful inside a contained place. You're going to blow up this side of the whole freaking mountain!" Charamon takes a moment to process this information. "Scanning environment. Calculating. Please wait." "Well that bought us some time."
