Saturday had come and the group had met up outside DECKS. Rita was pleased to see Izzy was wearing some of the new clothing they had bought together, however... he clearly didn't sleep the night before and looked completely worn out. "You didn't sleep at all last night?" Kari questioned with concern. "That isn't good Izzy!" Sora added in a motherly tone. "I got about 3 hours sleep, but I finally finished making them. Try them on Tai." Izzy spoke as he held out a pair of goggles. "Okay..." Tai responded as he took the goggles and placed them over his eyes. "Theoretically, you should be able to see the distortions in space." Izzy explained. "Eh?" Mimi seemed shocked, her sudden close proximity made Izzy's heart jump. "That really is so cool..." Rita fawned, making Izzy's cheeks brighten even more. "Hey Tai, we'll head back to the cyberspace that Izzy made." Agumon spoke as he prodded at Tai's pants leg. "Your computer is their gateway right?" TK asked. "Any monitor connected to the internet will work." Izzy answered, typing away on his laptop. He looked around, seeing a phone booth. "That will do." The Digimon jumped into the screen, relieved that if there was trouble they could come back easily. "So what should we do now?" Mimi asked. "According to my research, the distortions seem to occur where mass data concentrates. With those goggles we should be able to see the data flow. Colours mark the difference in data format and strength. For example, when I connect to my server..." Izzy continued to speak as he made some adjustments on his laptop. "Yeah, the light is getting stronger." Tai replied, being able to see them through the goggles. "The red spots are the concentrations related to the distortions. It's highly possible that infected Digimon will appear from large distorted areas." Izzy explained. "Oh I see," Kari responded. "Let's check for distortions in this area to see in advance whether there are any dangerous spots here." Izzy suggested. "Good idea, it will save time rushing around to find them later when trouble is already happening." Rita smiled, Izzy felt his heart race once again.

"Huh?" Everyone's attention was caught at the sight of a familiar girl who was looking around. "Is something wrong?" Sora questioned, catching Meiko's attention, bowing in response. "Did something happen?" Sora asked sweetly as she approached her classmate. Meiko looked troubled. "W-well you see... I was looking for something but then got lost." She answered. "Shall we show you around?" Sora smiled, Mimi approaching as well. "Uh but..." She responded shyly. "It's okay, we're also searching for something!" Sora spoke as she took Meiko's hand. "That's right!" Mimi added, also pulling the shy girl along. "Come on, you guys come as well!" Sora called back to the others. The guys all looking rather surprised. "Let's help her, Izzy are you sure you are going to be up for walking around?" Rita asked with concern. He really looked like he needed to get some sleep. "Don't worry I do this a lot; I'm rather used to it." He smiled. "Right..." Rita sighed, she was growing more and more concerned for the boy. Walking around, Rita kept a close eye on Izzy while Mimi and Sora stayed close to Meiko. She was apparently searching for some sort of cat. Every now and then Tai would put his goggles on to check for distortions. Eventually the group ended up at the beach where they parted ways with Meiko who decided to continue looking on her own. Tai then pointed out that wearing the goggles he still couldn't see very far. Concluding they would need to find a place high up to search. Deciding that the Ferris wheel was the perfect choice, the group then ran into Matt and Gabumon. It seemed like Gabumon had dragged Matt out, him and Tai were still having some troubles after all. Getting on the Ferris wheel, the girls planned to force Tai and Matt into a cart alone so they could talk things out. Rita found it rather amusing, even if the others were rather bunched together in a different cart. Mimi had fun taking photos of the two together, while Rita tried to hide how nervous she was from the height. "Are you okay Rita?" TK asked, being rather observant. "Oh right, Rita doesn't like high places..." Mimi remembered, a little late. "Are you okay?" Sora asked. "I-I'll be fine, it's just best I don't look outside." Rita spoke, her eyes fixed on the floor. "Here Izzy you should comfort her!" Mimi stated, shoving Rita towards Izzy. "M-Mimi!" Rita cried out as she was forced up against Izzy's chest. Both their faces were red, the physical contact was a strong reminder of the night they went out shopping together. "Mimi don't tease Rita, she is already uncomfortable..." Sora lectured. "Awe it was funny though!" Mimi laughed. "S-sorry..." Rita spoke as she pulled back off of Izzy. "N-no it's okay... if your scared then just close your eyes, we will be off soon enough." Izzy blushed, trying to move things along. "T-thanks..." Rita spoke, she still was unable to stop her heart from racing. It wasn't long after that the conversation switched to the weather. For some reason the clouds above them were swirling. When they got off the group waited for Tai and Matt, however they ended up running past them. "I saw the distortion over there!" Tai called out as he continued to run. The sky continued to darken as everyone ran towards Pallet Town. Announcements were being made for people to evacuate, however the Digidestined of course ignored the order, heading closer and closer towards the distortion. The group came to a stop when the clouds started to warp even more, rain too started to fall. Rushing even more, they knew they had to hurry before something bad happened. However... it was too late. A giant Digimon had appeared out of the distortion in the middle of Pallet Town. People were crying out as they ran away from the large caped monster. "What is that?" Kari asked. "I've never seen it before..." TK's voice shook. Izzy quickly opened his laptop, typing in some code. "Got it, that's Alphamon." Izzy responded. "Alphamon?" TK questioned. "Sorry, that's all the information I have." Izzy replied, clearly shaken. "We have to do something..." TK proclaimed. "Izzy summon Palmon and the others!" Mimi ordered. "Right away!" Izzy replied, typing in more coding. Tai and Matt ran in before anyone could say or do anything.
