AnimeAdmirer's (Digimon: Tamers)Digital Beauty Rika is forced by her mother, to participate in a model photo shoot. Rika tolerates it until she realizes she's becoming just like her mother, and flees. Meanwhile, Takato and Henry try to figure out where Renamon is, and decide that, whenever Vajramon reappears, Renamon will too. It turns out that Riley is sent undercover to act as a model at the same agency Makino works at. She seems happy enough, but wishes she didn't have to spend her time chasing Wild Ones. Rika, concerned for Renamon, ends up coming home late, and avoids her mother. Terriermon detects Vajramon returning, and the boys call up Rika to let her know. Together, the three of them race to the location of the digital field, a sports arena. Vajramon tells Renamon she has been selected to fight for the Digimon Sovereign, the leader of the Devas. He then reveals the Sovereign plans to take over the real world by enslaving or even destroying the humans. Calumon shows up, and Vajramon attacks him. Guilmon grows into Growlmon and saves the little cutie, but gets his butt walloped. Gargomon joins the fight, but the pair barely seem to hurt Vajramon. Renamon digivolves into Kyubimon, and Vajramon is pleased--he again tries to convince her to join the Sovereign's cause, but with no luck. The Tamers swipe cards in order to beat the Bull Deva, but Vajramon easily knocks Growlmon and Gargomon to one side. He himself is knocked back by Kyubimon. Just as it seems Vajramon is about to demolish Kyubimon, Rika pulls out the Blue Card and swipes; Taomon is born. Calumon collapses from this tremendous effort. Upon seeing Taomon, Vajramon rejects her for looking too humanoid. Taomon tells him she was just using him for information, and calmly fights him. Enraged, Vajramon threatens to kill her, then Rika; Taomon promptly destroys him. After the fight, Rika complements Renamon just for being her. Impmon's Last Stand Summary written by Stan....Thank you! Takato's friends are happily playing with Guilmon, as the Tamers debate what to do about the Devas. In a nearby playground, a trio of girls gush over the adorable Calumon, but define Impmon as definitely not cute. Angry, he fireballs them away. Henry spends the afternoon practicing martial arts, but his sensei notices he is not himself. Henry admits to that, and asks about the Devas. His sensei tells him the Devas are creatures that protected the world from the evil spirit Asura; he then proceeds to inform Henry that the Devas could be good or evil--it's all a matter of perspective. Impmon is spending this time leaping from rooftop to rooftop, being followed by Calumon. He then hears Indramon, the Horse Deva, who tells him the small Rookie has the stench of humans on him. Renamon appears to fight, but Indramon is disgusted by all the "tainted ones" (Digimon with human Tamers) and leaves. Impmon is enraged; he tells Renamon he could have taken Indramon, even without digivolving. Meanwhile, in the Twin Towers, Yamaki receives a transmission, and insanely laughs as he sees how simple their code is. He re-vows to rid the earth of the Digimon pestilence. In the park where Takato, Guilmon, and their friends are, a strange kid appears. Nobody knows who he is; he freaks them out by squawking, then laughs and runs away. At the same time, Impmon decides to go on a general rampage through the city, causing lots of trouble. Late that afternoon, Jeri confronts Takato about seeming preoccupied, then tells him he can always come to her if needed. Calumon shows up and Takato tries to figure out why Calumon is the key to digivolving; the tiny Digimon has no clue. Several cops attempt to arrest Impmon, who is suddenly snatched away by Renamon. He fumes at her, tells her again he needs no partner (admitting in the process he once did), and suddenly bursts into tears, confessing he wants so much to digivolve. Indramon reappears, and Impmon races to challenge him. He refuses to let Renamon fight who, in turn, holds the others back from fighting. As Calumon shows up to watch, Indramon beats Impmon up--bad--but the Rookie keeps trying. In a moment, reconfiguration is certain for Impmon. Waiting to the last possible minute, Renamon saves Impmon, and Indramon turns his wrath on her as well. Takato watches Calumon, and sees the red triangle on the Digimon's forehead glow; he then tells the Digimon to digivolve. They do so, and attack together. Indramon sucks all the attacks into the large horn he carries, then blows them back at the Champions. Impmon ignores them as they topple to one side; instead, the infuriated Rookie charges Indramon and... Out Of The Blue Summary written by Stan....Thank you! ...Impmon attacks Indramon as the Horse Deva grows to an immense size. Irritated with the small Rookie, Indramon literally knocks him into the next county. Yamaki uses Juggernaut again, which causes Indramon to pause, then disappear. That night, Takato, Growlmon, Kyubimon, and Gargomon rest in the tunnel, awaiting word about Impmon. Henry and Rika come back without any. The next day, Kazu and Kenta are suggesting Guilmon bread to Takato's father, but Takato manages to drag the boys away before they say too much. Followed by the strange kid, Kazu proudly displays his created Blue Card. Suddenly, the strange kid tries to steal Takato's D-Power, then runs away laughing. With his office moved to the Twin Towers, Henry's dad awaits Yamaki. He is forgotten as Indramon reappears, so he does some wandering--and stumbles upon the Juggernaut. Yamaki appears behind him and tells him about the use of the Juggernaut and about the Digimon "infestation". The kids all run to the point of Indramon's bio-emergence, and the Digimon grow to their Champion levels. While Kazu and Kenta cheer them on, Jeri notices Calumon is noticeably tired out. From their own view points, the strange kid and a weakened Impmon watch as Yamaki's helicopters join the fight. Even powered up by a card, Gargomon takes a nasty beating; the other two, also powered by cards, attack with little effect. Meanwhile, Yamaki has taken Henry's father to reunite with the other "Monster Makers" team--the Irish Dolphin, the Indian Curly, the African Babble, and the English Daisy. Shibumi, however, is still missing. He is the one, Henry's dad explains, that foresaw the AI program becoming living creatures, but no one had believed him. Yamaki theorizes that it is not totally the Monster Maker team's fault; the Digimon have a sovereign that supposed took what the humans made and gave it life. Outside, Yamaki's helicopters attempt to shoot Indramon down, but fly away before they are destroyed. Yamaki suggests that the Monster Makers gain the Digimon's friendship, to make it easier to destroy the creatures. The Champions continue to take a beating (with the Tamers feeling every hit), and the other kids try to help with more cards. It looks impossible until Kazu suggests Takato try his created Blue Card. Takato suddenly decides that it will work, and swipes the created card. Calumon responds instantly and Growlmon becomes WarGrowlmon again. He promptly trashes Indramon, leaving Kazu with a very swelled ego. |
