Evil Shows His Face

[The gang with Taichi carrying unconscious Yamato on his back the end of the pathway up Mount Infinity]

Jou: This place could really use a good bus system.

Izumi: Yeah, but it looks like we're at the end of the line.

Jou: We're doomed. Trapped on an island. We'll never get out of here alive! I knew I wouldn't like camp, but would my folks listen to me? No... I knew I should've gone to summer school...

-------------------------

[In another part of Mount Infinity, a black gear floats up. A lion-like digimon, walking on two legs, is traveling up the path. He carries a sword on his back.]

Lion-digimon: Another black gear! I sense danger...

[A green-skinned digimon, with a shock of silver hair and a bone club, jumps out on him. Cue the Information Screen!]

Green-Skin: Pummel Whack! Leomon, you may be mighty, but now you face me! Your kind-hearted leadership is unimpressive!

Leomon: Ogremon, you are truly the most evil of the bad digimon! There is no limit to your ruthlessness!

[Sword meets bone as Leomon and Ogremon lock weapons. Both fly out of their owner's hands.]

Ogremon: No one asked you here. No one wants you here. I strongly suggest that you go now, while you still can!

Leomon: The endless attack of black gears, which keep dropping from this mountain, is transforming perfectly peaceful, innocent digimon into monsters, and I have come here to make it stop!

Ogremon: What a joke! You have been warned!

[They shoot energy balls at each other, causing the rock formations around them to crumble. A new voice, much deeper than either of the sparring digimon, emanates from afar.]

Voice: Both of you, stop! Cease this foolishness! I command that the two of you work together for me, not fight.

Leomon: I'll never do that!

Ogremon: Neither will I!

[The owner of the voice floats before them. He's fully-clad in black leather, with large arms and wings, and two long horns. He's around the same height as Leomon and Ogremon]

Devimon: Be silent! For I am Devimon, ultimate ruler of the demon underworld! You must obey my every command!

Ogremon: Sir, you don't need that joker. I can handle whatever you want done without anyone's assistance!

Devimon: I think not. It is the digi-destined kids we'll be fighting.

Leomon: The digi-destined? Where are they?

Devimon: They're already here, on Infinity Mountain. Now find them and destroy the entire group!

Leomon: Destroy them? I'll destroy you for having threatened the digi-destined! Fist of the Beast King!

[An orange energy ball looking like a lion's head blasts towards Devimon - but it goes straight through him as he warps away.]

Devimon: Please, Leomon. I am not requesting your co-operation, I am demanding it! Prepare for the Touch of Evil!

[Devimon's clawed hand latches onto Leomon's back, filling him with dark energy.]

Devimon: Now you will obey my every command!

[Leomon speaks in a soulless voice, much like the kids when they were under Monzaemon's spell. His eyes have no pupils.]

Leomon: Yes... I will obey...
