Opening:
As dusk falls on the last day of the year. In a perfectly normal
housing area... The long, long adventure starts here.
*flash to Akiyama house*
His name is Ryo. He's on winter vacation and, today, he was going
to get a new computer as a Christmas present from his dad.
>TAKE:
Hello! Chatting on New Year's Eve is cool, isn't it? Oh yeah,
do you remember about the little incident in the summer?
> MAA-KUN:
Yeah, I remember! When we had all those earthquakes, right? The
town got really wrecked didn't it...
>UK: Yeah,
I know! But that was really an earthquake? My dad said it was
a terrorist attack!
> TAKE:
Yeah, I know. Some people even said that it was because of the
Digimon!
> UK:
Really? Are you kidding me?
> MAA-KUN:
And, and, and, who said that? Are they nuts or something?
> TAKE:
What was their name again... I think it was Taichi or something
like that.
*flash
happens, room darkens*
Ryo: Hey,
what's this? A power failure?
*Agumon
turns up on computer screen.*
>Ryo,
please help us. Taichi, Yamato, everyone has been captured...
Please help us... Please help us!
*digivice
shows up*
>Ryo,
please touch it! The Digivice! Touch it and come into our world!
Ryo: What's
this? A digivice? Do they mean this? What do you mean, "Help
me?"
>Everyone's
been captured! I need your help, Ryo!
Ryo: I really
don't understand, but I have to touch this right? Oh well, here
I go!
*Ryo grabs
digivice, it sparkles*
Ryo *resigned
look*: Whoa! What the heck is this!?
Ryo: *surprised look*: Ah! Ah! Whoa!
*screen
black out*
>Ryo?
The breaker was shut off. Can you take a look at it? Hey, Ryo?
Where did you go? Ryo? Ryo?
*flash
to DW*
Agu: Ryo?
Can you hear me?
Ryo *surprised*:
What? Who are you? Where am I?
Agu: I'm
Agumon. You're Ryo, right? I was waiting for you.
Ryo: You
were waiting for me?... Agumon? Is this a dream or something?
Agu: no,
no, no it isn't! this isn't a dream! This is a digital world!
This is the world inside a digital network, the kind that's inside
a machine like a computer or a game!
Ryo *resigned
look*: I see... I could tell that this was a strange place. But
a digital world? What the heck are you talking about...
Ryo *normal*: Oh yeah, you were on my computer screen, weren't
you... Agumon, or something like that?
Agu: You
mean your dad's computer?
Ryo *annoyed*:
That doesn't matter! I was only borrowing it.
Ryo *normal*: By the way Agumon, why am I here anyway? You said
that you wanted my help, didn't you?
Agu: Well,
it was really supposed to be all over by now! But Mugendramon
and Chimeramon became one, and the supposedly defeated Devimon
and Etemon came back, and there was a time slip in the Digital
World...
Ryo: Hey,
Agumon!
Ryo *resigned look*: Explain everything slowly! Who can figure
out what you're saying otherwise...
Agu: Like
I said, the network time had a time slip and created another world
and Chimeramon and Mugendramon...
Ryo *resigned*:
I have no idea what you're...
*ground
opens up, the two fall in*
Ryo *surprised*:
Whoa!
*they
land*
Agu: Ow!
Ryo, are you okay?
Ryo *resigned*:
Yeah, I'm fine, Agumon,
Ryo *normal*: but what the heck's going on here?
Agu: Like
I said, in the computer world, lots of places have weird digital
problems. Recently, there've been earthquakes and flash floods
and it's getting really out of hand.
Ryo *resigned*:
What? I really don't understand,
Ryo *normal*: but this is a computer world, right? And for some
strange reason, it went weird and Agumon's adventures, which were
supposed to be finished, went right back to the beginning again?
Agu *happy*:
That's right. You seem to understand it quite well.
Ryo *resigned*:
This has got to be a bad dream. I've been playing too many games...
*Kuwagamon
shows up and knocks Ryo over*
Agu: Oh!
Watch out!
*Agu steps
in front of Ryo to protect him.*
Ryo *hurt
look*: Ow!
Agu: I'm
going to protect you, Ryo! Stand back!
*Kuwagamon/Betamon
vs Agumon battle begins, ends*
Ryo: What
was that?
Agu: Come
with me! There's a village just ahead. I'll explain when we
get there!
*wander
into town*
Puchimeramon:
Ryo! I was waiting for you... You came to help us, didn't you?
Toyagumon:
Agumon, you must be pretty tired too! Everything is OK since he
arrived, isn't it?
*Gennai
appears, egads they make Ryo so damn cute in this. Must resist
urge to pinch his cheek and go "awww"...*
Gennai: Thank
you for coming, a Chosen Child!
Ryo: Are
you a human too? Like me, were you forced to come to this world?
Gennai: No,
I'm human and not human at the same time. I guess you can call
me Super Old Man or something like that.
Ryo *resigned*:
...Right.
Gennai: Agumon
probably couldn't give you a good explanation. Let me explain.
*screen
flips to show Vandemon, Devimon, Piemon, Etemon. Insert abbreviated
version of season 1 here*
Gennai: Quite
some time ago, an evil digimon called Devimon tried to conquer
this world. From the human world, the Chosen Children came and
with the combined strength of Agumon, Gabumon, and Patamon, the
world finally became peaceful again. But that wasn't the end.
There were still two left.
Ryo: Two?
*flip
to image of Millenniumon*
Gennai: Chimeramon
and Mugendramon, these two digimon were originally merged by accident.
After they were defeated by Taichi, in order to survive they merged
themselves together.
Ryo: That
means they evolved into a very strong digimon?
Gennai: Its
name is Millenniumon. And he pretty much took over the Digital
World. Millenniumon's dark power is so strong it's almost unmatched.
He even warped "time" itself here on this world, and
then destroyed it!
Agu: So,
really, we should have defeated the evil digimons and everything
would have been finished but now we have to start all over!
Gennai: Taichi
is one of the Chosen Children who once defeated all of the evil
digimon but then got caught by them. The only thing I could do
was to warp Agumon here.
Agu: I accessed
Taichi's computer in the human world and tried to find someone
who could save us from this crisis. The only one who trusted me
and touched the digivice is you, Ryo.
*flash
to Gennai's house*
Ryo: I see...
I think I understand. We have to defeat Millenniumon, who is the
fusion of Chimeramon and Mugendramon, in order to save Taichi
and his friends. Oh, so that's why Agumon came to me and asked
for help...
Agu *depressed*:
Ryo! You're our only chance! Please! You have to help us!
Ryo *resigned*:
But how can we defeat such a strong enemy?
Agu *encouraging*:
We can get all the digimon together! If we put all our strength
together, surely we can win!
Ryo *resigned*:
Get everyone together? How do you plan to do that?
Gennai: Due
to Millenniumon's power, there are a few evil digimon groups around.
Let's use this chance to get rid of them one by one. That way
we can chip away at his Dark Power. After we cut off some of his
power, some digimon are sure to come and join our cause.
Agu: If Ryo
and I fight together we still can't defeat him. But if we gain
more allies we can create an army powerful enough to defeat him.
Gennai: First,
we should go to the cave that's closest to this village. There's
a small group of enemy digimon there. Going there to fight them
is the best way to do it.
*flash
to a screen of Ryo and the various digimon and Gennai*
Ryo *happy*:
I understand, Agumon! We fight them one by one and gain allies
along the way, right?
Ryo *normal*:
I'm not sure how far my strength will go but I'll do my best and
try it!
Agu *happy*:
Thanks Ryo! I knew you'd say that! Wait for us, Taichi! We'll
save you!
Ryo: Yeah!
We'll help you! Agumon!
*saved
game here*
*Back
to Gennai's*
Gennai: First,
go to the little cave above the village. There's an enemy group
there! Go and defeat them!
*village*
Mojamon:
This is the digimon town. There are lots of digimon living here.
There are lots of stores. It seems pretty lively.
Tyrannomon:
Hello! I'm Tyrannomon. There are lots of digimon living in this
town so listen to them carefully and collect lots of valuable
information from them!
Botamon:
Bikii~
*residence

Yukidarumon:
In this house, the conversation topic changes every day. After
you come back from your adventure, the conversation may change.
You should check it out!
*residence

Elecmon:
I guess the most common topic around here is Variable Moves. That's
surrounded by mystery.
Pyokomon:
Every time you enter this house the conversation topic changes!
Come here often and take notes on our conversation!
*area

Toyagumon:
Here is Toyagumon's battle lesson number 1: Digimon are either
Sky-type, Ocean-type, or Land-type. The Sky-type can travel great
distances. The Ocean-type are slow, but in the water they are
super strong. And the Land-type is somewhere in between.
*residence

Nanimon:
This is the place where we digimon talk about all kinds of stuff.
*at cave*
Ryo: OK,
let's go!
*finish
with cave. Botamon hops up*
Botamon:
Gennai says he has something to give you! He wants you to come
to his house!
*Gennai's
house*
Gennai: I
knew you could do it. Here, take this digivice as a reward.
*image
of digivice hovering between Ryo's hands*
Ryo: This
is the same thing that showed up on our computer screen.
Gennai: The
digivice was the sacred device that the Chosen Children had. Using
this device, Taichi and his friends evolved Agumon and the others
and fought the evil digimon.
Ryo: I wonder
if I can use it too...
Gennai: No,
you can't use it because it belonged to Taichi. But you're a Chosen
Child too so you can use one kind of power.
Ryo: Just
one kind?
Gennai: The
digivice increases its sacred power by fighting with enemies.
If you use that power against an enemy and, if the digivice is
strong enough, you can turn that enemy into your ally!
*Ryo and
Gennai go to a passage between mountains*
Gennai: Before,
due to Taichi's battles, all the obstacles to moving forward were
gone but now they're back. In order to get rid of the obstacles,
you have to weaken the Dark Power. Now go, Chosen Child! Everything
depends on you! I'll go now. If you need anything, come to my
house...
*wander
past passage and to mansion, enter mansion, get ass kicked. Got
a Veedramon at Nanomon's server room. Finish mansion dungeon,
get a Poyomon*
Gennai: There's
a dungeon deep in this island where Devimon is hiding. If you
don't defeat him and his troops, File Island will never truly
be free!
*got a
Unimon and Yuramon, go to ascend mountain. Unimon learned Aeroveedramon!
Finished off Devimon & gang, image of Koushiro & Mimi
pops up*
Agu *happy*:
Koushiro! Mimi! You're OK!
Mimi *happy*:
Agumon! It's thanks to you that we were saved!
Koushiro
*happy*: You're Ryo aren't you!
Kou *normal*: I saw you with my Analyzer! Please take this Analyzer
with you! I think it'll help! Tentomon, please go and help Agumon
in our place!
Tentomon:
Leave it to me, Koushiro!
Mimi: Palmon!
Please go and help Taichi together with Ryo!
Palmon: I'll
do my best, Mimi!
Palmon *happy*: Just watch me!
*flash
to Gennai's house*
Gennai: Really?
You met with Mimi and Koushiro? That's evidence that Millenniumon's
power has weakened. Koushiro and Mimi have returned to their original
world, haven't they? Tentomon and Palmon could have only stayed
because of their digivices' power...
Tentomon:
Ryo! I'm Tentomon! Pleased to meet you!
Palmon *happy*:
I'm Palmon!
Palmon *normal*: If we combine our powers and help others like
Gabumon and Patamon, we're sure to get more allies!
Agu *happy*:
You said it
Agu *normal*: Ryo! If we keep on fighting, we are sure to gain
more allies!
Agu *happy*: Let's do our best, Ryo!
Gennai: Peace
might return for a little while now! Now go! Another battlefield
awaits you!
Gennai: The Continent of Darkness... that's Server Continent.
Etemon is hiding there! Go to Server Continent using the Warp
Gate I provided!
*at warp
gate*
Toyagumon:
I was waiting for you. Gennai has built something for you! If
you use this, I think you'll be able to get to the Server Continent.
Let's see... what's the magic password for the gate...? What the
heck is it? Mon, mon, Digimon Ben Kazzam! Nope, that doesn't seem
to be it. Oh no, what the heck is it? I can't remember!
*Gennai
walks up*
Gennai: You
idiot! You've forgotten it already? Even your pronunciation is
wrong! Ryo, are you really going to go to Server Continent?
*hit OK*
Gennai: Server
Continent is where Millenniumon lives as well as all the other
evil digimon. But, crushing enemy bases one by one, we're sure
to find a path that leads to victory! Now stand in the middle
of the gate.
*Ryo steps
onto the circle*
Gennai: Here
we go!
*stream
of DW code strings by and Ryo is teleported to Server*
Picodevimon:
Hi! Welcome young child! Ah, so you're the Chosen Child, are you,
Ryo? Ha ha! Is it true what they say about you defeating Devimon?
Really? That's pretty impressive! But you don't know anything,
do you? You'll never be able to defeat Master Etemon with your
puny power! Ha ha!
*Picodevimon
flies off to castle area*
Picodevimon:
As long as this sealed door is here, you can't go any further
than where you are right now. Of course, if you manage to miraculously
defeat Master Etemon then it'll open, but as long as he's here,
it will never, ever open! Ha ha!
*beat
dungeon 1, dungeon 2 has Etemon*
Etemon: Hmmff!
What a stuck-up kid! I'll break you into little pieces!
*sicced
Tentomon, Flymon, Unimon on him*
Etemon: You...!
Even though I was nice to you, this is how you repay me?! You're
gonna pay for that! *Etemon calls up Rukamon & Ganimon* Hahaha!
Now's the time to rid myself of this shame! Everyone, come and
get it!
*defeated
him again, rescued Takeru & Sora*
Agu: Takeru!
Sora! Patamon! Piyomon!
Sora *happy*:
Ryo! Thanks for your help!
Sora *normal*: Piyomon, go and help him!
Takeru *normal*:
Patamon!
Takeru *happy*: Please go in my place and help Agumon!
Agu *happy*:
Th..Thank you everyone!
*outside
castle dungeon*
Picodevimon:
What? Are you crazy? Master Etemon has been defeated? Master Vandemon!
Help! *flies up mountain past the opened gate*
> Etemon's
magical powers have been broken, and you can go ahead!
*flash
to Gennai's*
Gennai: Peace
might return for a little while now! Now go! Another battlefield
awaits you!
Gennai: Vandemon is the Master of Darkness! The digimon must attack
Server Continent.
*back
to server, past the gate*
Picodevimon:
What? You've already come here?? But... as long as Master Vandemon
is here, you can't go on ahead. *flies away*
*enter
first dungeon, done. enter second dungeon, done. third dungeon:*
Vandemon:
Huh? You thought you won, did you? I'm going to have your head
served up on a platter to my master, Millenniumon...
*Clockmon and Kokuwamon appear*
Vandemon: Why don't you come? I'll show you the difference
in power!
*defeat
Vandemon, rescue Hikari, Jou, Yamato*
Agu: Yamato!
Jou! Hikari!
Yamato: Thank
you, Ryo! Thanks for your help!
Jou: Well,
I thought we were finished!
Agu: Gabumon!
Gomamon! Tailmon! You'll all fight with us won't you?
Gabu: Of
course, leave it to us!
Hikari: Please,
Ryo, you've got to help my brother.
Agu: Don't
worry! We're sure to win!
*passageway
opens up, Picodevmon flies by*
Pico: What?
What? Master Vandemon has been defeated???? That's terrible! Master
Piemon, please get that guy and really cut him up! Please!
*Pico
flies away*
> Vandemon's
magical powers have been broken, and you can go on ahead!
*after
picking up item and digimon, went to next area*
Pico: I can't
believe how lazy and shameless you are! You've got way too much
time on your hands! Anyway, it doesn't matter because, either
way, you're going to get killed by Master Piemon and you won't
be able to go on ahead anyhow!
*Pico flies past Piemon's castle, disappears*
Pico: Is this a long, long goodbye??
*back
at Gennai's*
Gennai: Piemon
is the only one left! After you defeat him, all we have to do
is get Millenniumon! Let's go! For the Chosen Child!
*Piemon's
dungeon*
Piemon: Ha
ha ha... You're very powerful and it does seem that you're a Chosen
Child. But your streak ends here... *Piemon appears on the
battlefield* My name is Piemon. Under Master Millenniumon's
power, I have returned. I refuse to let you go any further...
This place is going to be your graveyard! Come on, if you dare!
*defeat
Piemon, warp point appears*
> Piemon's
magical powers have been broken, and you can go on ahead!
*at Gennai's*
Gennai: This
is it! The final battle! Millenniumon is there, deep in Server
Continent! Be sure to have faith in yourself and defeat him!
*run off
and warp to a weird temple place*
Pico: What?
What? That's impossible! Master Piemon too? It's not good!! Master
Millenniumon!! *flies into temple*
*in the
temple we have to battle Etemon et al again. battle with Chimeramon.
Beat Chimeramon*
Chim: Ha
ha ha! I guess I'll have to show my true power... *turns into
Millenniumon*
Millenniumon: I'll show you the true meaning of fear! I'll blast
you to oblivion!
***defeated
Millie***
*pic of
Taichi's and Agumon's reunion*
Taichi: Agumon!
Agu: Taichi!
Taichi: Thank
you, Ryo! It's all thanks to you...
Ryo: No,
it's not me. It's Agumon and his friends who helped. Now can I
go back to my world?
Taichi: Yeah,
I think so. I have to go back too. Sora and Yamato have already
returned, right? I'm going back too.
Ryo: Agumon
too? Are you all going back?
Agu *sad*:
I... I...
Ryo *sad*:
Oh yeah. Taichi and Agumon were originally always together so
you're going back together, right? You don't have to worry about
me, Agumon.
Gomamon:
You don't have to worry about that too much! We can meet somewhere
again, Ryo!
Palmon: Right!
our hearts will always be with you!
Gabumon:
I'll never forget you, Ryo!
Patamon:
I like you second only to Takeru!
Piyomon:
We'll meet again someday and, when that happens, let's have fun
together again!
Tentomon:
You don't have to cry just because we're leaving! Real men don't
cry!
Tailmon:
Right! We can meet again someday! We'll never forget you, never!
Taichi: We're
friends forever! As long as you remember these battles, we'll
be sure to meet again someday.
*pic of
really-depressed Ryo and Agumon hugging*
Ryo *sad*:
Agumon...
Agumon *sad*:
Ryo...
*pic of
Ryo standing and waving up at a bright light in the sky*
Tento: Ryo!
Thanks for fighting with us. It was fun!
Palmon: Ryo!
Next time let's have an adventure with Mimi and her friends, OK?
Patamon:
Even if you go back to the real world, don't forget us!
Ryo *sad*:
I won't forget you! I'll never forget you!
*pic of
comet-like thingy shooting from File Island*
> Goodbye!
Goodbye!
*back
in digimon town*
Puchimeramon:
Thank you Ryo!
Toyagumon:
You've rescued our world!
Babumon:
Goodbye Ryo!
Botamon:
Goodbye Ryo!
*flash,
darkness, little circle of candle light glowing*
> ? Ryo?
Ryo? I told you to hurry up and fix the breaker!
> Oh jeez...
*pic of
Ryo looking drowsily over his shoulder at Mrs. Akiyama who's standing
behind his chair with a candle stick*
Ryo: What?
Where am I? Home?
> What
are you talking about? Hey, that's strange, the computer's on...
Even though the power went out, the electricity here is still
on... Very strange...
*pic of
the Akiyamas and Ryo, though you can't actually see the parents'
faces. Mr. Akiyama is tousling Ryo's hair*
Ryo: Hey
Dad, welcome back!
> Sorry
to keep you waiting, Ryo. Well, let's go and celebrate the new
year. The new year will be here soon. The three of us should go
together.
Ryo: ? Oh
yeah, I guess it is New Year's. Yup. The new year is coming soon,
that's for sure.
> What?
We haven't seen him for just a little while and he's already changed
so much...
> He's
really grown up, hasn't he?
Ryo: We'll
all be able to meet again, won't we?
*fade
out, credits*
