Sayuri looked around the digital world as she was with Shafiq and Hakimi in the Biyomon village. If those two cross us, I'll personally kill them. she thought as Makimon looked at her.

The next day, as Peace Carry appeared in front of them, Hakimi looked at Yokomon leader. "Thank you for everything. We wish to repay you," said Hakimi.

"I see. One of my kinds wants to follow you for your quest to save the Digital World," said Yokomon leader as a Yokomon hopped beside him.

Hakimi sighed. "Hop on, Yokomon," said Hakimi. Yokomon smiled as he hopped on Peace Carry. Peace Carry flew away.

Yokomon looked at Peace Carry. 'I just hope they can defeat the Emperor' thought Yokomon leader.

"Where are we going?" Sayuri asked Hakimi as Makimon looked on.

As Peace Carry flew across File Island, Hakimi looked at Yokomon. "You know it's dangerous. Why are you following us?" asked Shafiq.

"I don't know. Maybe it's Destiny," said Yokomon.

"It is her Destiny," said Hakimi.

"You mean?" asked Shafiq.

"Aly told me that Ela got her digivice right before Yokomon followed us," said Hakimi.

Shafiq sighed. 'I need to tell Ela that I love Yuri or there will be catfights' thought Shafiq.

Hakimi pulled down the landing gear. "We're here," said Hakimi.

Shafiq sighed as he looked at Sayuri. "I can't let her near or hurt Yuri. She's really meant to me," said Shafiq.

Hakimi smiled as he put his hand on Shafiq's shoulder. "Don't worry, we won't let that happened," said Hakimi.

Shafiq just nodded. He looked at Sayuri. "We're at Server Island and our target is Digimon Emperor's Base," said Shafiq. After Peace Carry were saved and kept to Hakimi's laptop, they continued their journey.

Inside the Digimon Emperor's Base:

"Catfights are good." The digimon emperor said. "I'll lure Lela here and hypnotize her to kill Sayuri. This time they'll be no backfiring in my plans."

Meanwhile.....

"I just hope so, Shafiq." Makimon said. "The last time Lela and Sayuri saw each other, they almost ended up wanting to tear each other apart." She shivered at the fact Sayuri and Lela meeting for the first time and having a yelling match first before the actual fighting with each other.

She can cry me a river. Sayuri thought. I don't care. She's never going to get Afiq-kun back with me around.

Hakimi's mind remembered the day Firdaus gave up his adventures.

*Flashback*

Firdaus looked at Hakimi. "Kimi, I know you hate me by stealing GeeGee and turns to be our fight but without our realized, it turned out as a new Digimon appeared," said Firdaus.

"I know, that's why we need to destroy it," said Hakimi, prepared to morph but Firdaus holds him. "Daus," said Hakimi.

Firdaus opened up his morpher and blue light went out from Firdaus's morpher. "Kimi, I always have faith to you even through you hate me. Here, used my power to fight this new enemy," said Firdaus.

"Why?" asked Hakimi.

"After Ayuz's dead, I don't think I have someone to protect," said Firdaus before he walked away. A beam suddenly hits Firdaus as he disappeared.

"Daus, there's more that you need to protect, Firdaus!" yelled Hakimi.

*End Flashback*

'Daus, why are you giving up so easily?' thought Hakimi. He stands up and looked around. He glanced at his Digital Morpher. 'I don't want it to happen like you do, Daus but it doesn't mean you quit from being a Digidestined' thought Hakimi. He realized that the combination of his War Greymon and Firdaus's Metal Garurumon is Omnimon, the greatest Mega Digimon of all time but he still prefers War Greymon.

"Hakimi what's wrong?" Sayuri asked. "Something's up."

Shafiq looked at Hakimi. 'I wonder what troubled his mind?' thought Shafiq. He looked at sleeping Agumon beside Makimon. He smiled. 'They will make a good couple like me and Yuri. But why GeeGee disconnected her relationship with my brother? That's the only women's feeling I can't understand' thought Shafiq. He looked at Sayuri. "He just thinking of his old memories. Nothing is gonna happened," said Shafiq.

Hakimi holds his D-Arc. 'This time Digimon Emperor, you won't have a chance to conquer Digital World because Guilmon and I will destroy you' thought Hakimi. Guilmon looked at his tamer.

"Flashback*

Hakimi was relaxing at the seat, waiting for the computer to save the data inside the diskette when suddenly; black glasses appeared inside the computer and landed in front of Hakimi. Hakimi wears it.

*Hakimi's P.O.V.*

Hakimi's eye began to scan as his name appeared on the screen. "Good morning, Guardian of Peacekeeper. I suppose you were fine. Our sinister, Apocalymon and the Digimon Emperor are joined forces along with Devimon, Etemon, Myotismon, Piedmon, Puppetmon, Machinedramon, Metal Seadramon and Daemon to conquer both Digital World and Real World. Your mission, which you must choose to accept, is to eliminate all the evil and convinced the Digimon Emperor to join your side. He is your best friend, after all. And next time if you gone to holiday please informed us where you are. This message will self-destruct in 5 seconds," said Gennai as he disappeared.

*END Hakimi's P.O.V.*

Hakimi sighed. "If I let you know where I'm going, it won't be a holiday," muttered Hakimi as he focuses his power to cover the explosion.

*End Flashback*

"Who does he mean by that? 'He is your best friend after all.' It can't be Daus since he's dead, does he?" the question popped on his mind again and again.

Guilmon looked at Hakimi. "You're ready?" asked Guilmon.

"Always be," grinned Hakimi.

"Hakimi wait." Sayuri said, pulling out some digimon and Yuugioh cards. "You may need these when your battling the Digimon emperor."

Digimon Emperor's castle..

Digimon Emperor looked at the screen. 'Well, my best friend. We will meet again and this time I'll show you who the best is' thought Digimon Emperor. He patted Wormmon's and Gabumon's head. "Gabumon, send Etemon to finish the job since he defeated Devimon," said Digimon Emperor. Gabumon nodded.

Back to the Digital Fighters...

"Don't worry, Yuri. I already have mine," said Hakimi. Guilmon sniffed around and suddenly went viral. Hakimi understand it. He pulled out his D-Arc. 'If I know Etemon better, he will use Concert Crush to crush our Digimon digivolution unless I used.' He activated his Morpher. 'But doesn't it too early to used the morpher? Etemon is only ultimate and I'm sure Growlmon can defeat him without any problem if we attack first before he launched Concert Crush' thought Hakimi.

"Kimi." Sayuri said. "If The Digimon Emperor plans to use Etemon, use my Change of Heart card to topple his plans that way he'd have no advantages against you"

"Hello, my name is Etemon and I will crush the Digidestined with my Concert Crush," sang Etemon as he appeared.

Hakimi sweatdropped. "Whatever, Etemon. You just sang an old song," said Hakimi.

"Let's digivolved!" yelled Guilmon.

"Maybe I won't need that card," said Hakimi.

EVOLUTION A giant sphere went out from Hakimi's digivice as it circled Guilmon.

"Guilmon digivolved to..." As Guilmon's body grew bigger, the blade appeared behind both of his arm; his muscle began to get hard. As digivolution complete, Growlmon stood and roared. "...Growlmon!" yelled Growlmon as his nose breath in flames.

END EVOLUTION

Growlmon looked at Etemon. "You think that would stop me?" asked Etemon. "I will crush your digivolution with my Concert Crush!" yelled Etemon.

Hakimi pulled out a card. "Digimodify! Aero Viper Teleport power activated!" yelled Hakimi. Growlmon suddenly disappeared and reappeared behind Etemon. "Plasma Blade!" yelled Growlmon as he slashed the guitar.

Etemon began to get angry. "I'll be back and this time you can't defeat me!" yelled Etemon as he disappeared.

"We heard that before!" mocked Hakimi. Agumon laughed.

Sayuri looked on in the battle as she began thinking about how she was given the Change of Heart card from Kimura Kenichi, her boyfriend before his death when she defeated him in Digimon/Duel Monsters.

*Flashback*

12-year-old Sayuri Hinato heard the announcer call her name out in the finals after deafeating Nagako Masami, he reluctantly handed over LadyDevimon to her before walking off in a rage at his defeat. "Hinato Sayuri." the announcer said. "She has been Tokyo's long time champion, will now take on Kimura Kenichi, Shinjuku's well known champion for the title."

Sayuri nodded her head and the two began their duel in the finals. One wrong move could kill me. she thought as she faced Kenichi who has already activated Angemon in attack mode and placed two cards face down. "My turn." Sayuri said. "I call forth LadyDevimon in defense mode and place two cards face down to end my turn."

"So, how do we stop him?" asked Shafiq.

"Unless Agumon reach his Ultimate, we don't have any option," said Hakimi.

"How can he do that?" asked Shafiq.

"Find your crest. That's the only way," said Hakimi.

"Why can't he digivolved like Guilmon?" asked Shafiq.

"Because he only reached Champion. I still need the crest to get Ultimate," said Hakimi.

"Look!" yelled Agumon as Guilmon changed his eyes to viral.

Hakimi looked at the pyramid. "Datamon. Let's destroy that thing for sure," said Hakimi.

"Why?" asked Shafiq.

"It will bring a lot of trouble if we let him live," said Hakimi. Shafiq nodded.

Sayuri contemplated on how she won the final duel and received the change of Heart card. "We should go together." Sayuri said. "Makimon has yet to digivolve and we should help out anyway."

Suddenly, a light formed a sun and landed on Shafiq's chest. "That's your crest, Afiq," said Hakimi as a sign of combination of Courage and Friendship along with Love, Sincerity, Reliability, Knowledge, Hope, Light and Miracles formed at Hakimi's hand.

"That's my crest," said Hakimi.

"Now we're ready to delete Etemon," said Shafiq.

"You need to digivolved your Digimon to Champion first," said Hakimi.

Shafiq sighed. "But I do wonder, Makimon will digivolved to what? Doggiemon? Midnight Doggiemon? Midnight Blue Doggiemon?" asked Agumon, snickered.

Shafiq sighed again. 'He's gonna get it' thought Shafiq.

"Lunamon," said Hakimi. Shafiq looked at Hakimi. "Her Champion form is Lunamon not Doggiemon," said Hakimi.

Makimon glared at Agumon as she bite his tail more harshly than before. "You insulted my champion form." she said, angry.

Sayuri sweatdropped and made her animated fallback. Why me? she thought. Why did I have to partner up with the APD?

Back to Real World...

Laili woke up real fast. She rubbed her chest. Renamon looked at her. "What's wrong, Aly?" asked Renamon.

"I think my fiancé is in trouble," said Laili.

"I assure you, he will be fine," said Renamon.

"I was hoping that, Renamon," said Laili.

Back to Digital World...

"I think we're lost," said Agumon.

"Yeah, Lost Digital World," said Shafiq.

"I didn't think that's funny," said Guilmon.

"It won't be funny when Etemon appeared," said Hakimi.

"We know," said Shafiq & Agumon.

"Then, stop playing and start focusing on defeating Etemon," said Hakimi.

Shafiq sighed. "Okay, bro," said Shafiq.

"He's quite touchy today," said Agumon.

"His responsible is getting higher since the enemy is getting more powerful," said Guilmon.

"Yes and he wants to lead the team to victories," said Shafiq.

"It's only 3 of us," said Agumon.

"He feels more to come," said Guilmon.

"You mean?" asked Agumon.

"Well, he said Ela got her Digivice. Aly got her Digimon, what is another possibility that could happened?" asked Shafiq.

"A new team of Digidestined," said Agumon.

"You mean next team of Digital Fighters," said Shafiq.

"So did Seiji, Maiko, Kouji." Sayuri said. "Even Kouichi got his digivice and Gabumon. Seiji's digimon is Hawkmon, and Maiko's has Biyomon as her digimon. Kenichi lost his life against Masami."

"Yes, we know that," said Agumon. Suddenly a meteor of Fire nearly hits them.

"Now what?" asked Shafiq.

"Meramon," said Hakimi as Guilmon looked at him.

"Fire Meteor!" yelled Meramon.

"Digimodify! War Greymon Plain Shield!" yelled Shafiq. Guilmon jumped.

"Speed Type!" yelled Hakimi. Guilmon's body began to change to blue and black.

"Photon Fireball!" yelled Guilmon. The attack hits Meramon, fall back.

"Digimodify! Power Charger!" yelled Shafiq.

"Baby Flames!" yelled Agumon. The attack hits Meramon, disingrated as Agumon load the data. Hakimi sighed.

Sayuri headed off to the other side alone with Makimon. I sure hope I find my crest soon. she thought, before seeing the Gomamons being attacked. "Gururumon." she said. "he's a mean tempered rabbit digimon. His attacks are Vine Whip and Chaos Flare."

Makimon looked at the angry rabbit digimon. "Hey Bunny." she yelled. "Why don't you pick on someone your own size?"

Suddenly a hole opened and Etemon appeared along with the Dark Network. Guilmon lured towards Etemon.

EVOLUTION

A giant sphere went out from Hakimi's digivice as it circled Guilmon. "Guilmon digivolved to..." As Guilmon's body grew bigger, the blade appeared behind both of his arm; his musclebegan to get hard. As digivolution complete, Growlmon stood and roared. ".Growlmon!" yelled Growlmon as his nose breath in flames.

END EVOLUTION

Growlmon lured towards Etemon. "You think that evolution would stop me?" yelled Etemon. Agumon focus on his eyes. Suddenly a light went out from Shafiq's digivice and hits Agumon.

"I heard that." Gururumon said. "Chaos Flare."

Sayuri and Makimon dodged the attack. "Digi Modify." Sayuri yelled. "Renamon's Diamond Storm, activate."

"Diamond Storm." Makimon yelled.

"Agumon digivolved to Greymon!"

"2 Champions want to defeat me?" yelled Etemon.

"You bet on it. Digimodify! Power Charger!" yelled Hakimi & Shafiq.

"Digi Nova Blast!"

"Neo Gyro Sphere!"

Both attack hits Etemon as it made a big smokes. As the smokes disappeared, Etemon still there, unharmed. Shafiq gripped his hands and lured towards Etemon, followed closed by Greymon. Hakimi shocked.

"Growlmon, cover Greymon. I'll help Shafiq," said Hakimi as he jumped. Growlmon lured towards Etemon.

"Neo Gyro Sphere!" yelled Growlmon.

Hakimi creates a giant fireball. "Cosmium Beam!" yelled Hakimi. The beam hits Etemon along with Growlmon's attack.

"Why this happened to me!" yelled Etemon as he disappeared along with the Dark Network inside Holy Light.

Suddenly Hakimi feels he been pulled towards the Holy Light. "Growlmon!" yelled Hakimi. Growlmon grabbed Hakimi but he also been pulled towards the light.

"No!" yelled Shafiq as the Holy Light absorbed Hakimi and Growlmon. "Bro!" yelled Shafiq as he cried.

"Makimon." Sayuri yelled, seeing Makimon get hit by Gururumon.

The Hare Digimon faced Sayuri. "I think you're coming with me now." Gururumon said. "My Emperor wishes to see you." Sayuri glared at Gururmon before trying to pull another card out. "Vine Whip." Gururumon yelled, tying Sayuri and Makimon. "You're coming with me now."

"You're not taking her away!" yelled Shafiq as Greymon lured towards Gururumon.

"Digi Nova Blast!" yelled Greymon as the attack hits Gururumon, disintegrated.

Real World...

Hakimi opened his eyes. He woke up slowly. 'Back to my home world?' thought Hakimi as he picked a sleeping Guilmon. 'Hey, this is my soccer field' thought Hakimi. Hakimi walked towards his home.

Before Sayuri got the chance to thank Shafiq, she and Makimon saw LadyDevimon attack Greymon. "Darkness Wave." LadyDevimon said. "That girl is coming with me whether she likes it or not. My lord won't like it if she's not there. And I do need to do what he asks of me."

Sayuri glared at LadyDevimon. "In your dreams, witch." she hollered at the fallen angel digimon. "Makimon, do it."

"Makimon digivolve to Lunamon." she said.

"Lunar Beams."

"Nigmare Illusion." LadyDevimon yelled. The attacks hit and exploded as LadyDevimon and Lunamon begun their fight.

"My partner and I aren't going nowhere near Masami, got it?" Lunamon said. "Whatever he wants, he has to come here and face us."

"I won't let you this time. Digimorpher Up!" yelled Shafiq as he turned to Imperialdramon Fighter Mode.

"Positron Laser!" yelled Imperialdramon FM as the beam hits Lady Devimon, disingrated.

Shafiq looked at the dark sky. 'Where is he? I wonder the Holy Light brings him to where?' thought Shafiq.

Agumon looked at his tamer. 'Don't worry, Afiq. I'm sure he's safe' thought Agumon.

'I know' thought Shafiq.

'Don't worry about it. I'll ask that doggie to let her tamer talk to you' thought Agumon.

'She'll bite you if she heard that' thought Shafiq.

'I know. That's what I'm worried about' thought Agumon as he rubbed his tail.

Real World..

Hakimi and Guilmon walked past the park when suddenly Guilmon changed to viral. 'Now what?' thought Hakimi as a foot hits Guilmon as he falls back. Hakimi looked front and saw Renamon stand on the branch as Laili looked at him. "Aly," sighed Hakimi.

Laili smiled. "What are you doing here?" asked Laili.

"Like always, honey. Let just say the Holy Light send me here," said Hakimi as he looked at his blurr Digimon. He sighed. "I think you kick your fiancé too hard, Renamon," said Hakimi.

"You bring Aly anywhere while I wake up this sleepy head," said Renamon. Hakimi nodded as Laili pulled his hand towards nearest lake.

Masami's Dark Base....

It seems to me there's a slight flaw in my plans. Masami thought angrily as he typed hin his code. Two of my slave digimon have been deleted. I will not give up until I have my rematch with Hinato Sayuri. When I do, she'll lose this time and die like Kenichi did. I'll see to it this time. Shafiq won't be much of a problem, since his biggest weakness is his stupid brother, Hakimi. He relies on him and I'll use that against him.

Careful Agumon. Lunamon said, biting his tail.

Sayuri shook her head and felt something wrong. Where's Hakimi? Sayuri thought. I feel like Nagako Masami is out there somewhere. Well if that crybaby wants a rematch why doesn't he come out here and face me instead of sending his weaklings to do his bidding.

Masami's Dark Base....

Be careful in what you wish for, Sayuri. he thought. You may get it.
