At the same time, however, Kari encounters Gatomon, one of Myotismon's lieutenants, who begins to suspect from her knowledge of Digimon that she may be the Eighth Child.

Adapts "The Eighth Child Revealed" and "Out on the Town"
Gatomon begins to remember her past - how she was waiting for someone who never came, how she met Wizardmon, and show fell under Myotismon's rule. Wizardmon knows that Kari was the one she was waiting for, and when he takes her Gatomon to her and gives her the eighth Digivice, the truth is at last clear - Kari is the Eighth Child, and Gatomon is her Digimon. Tai is also convinced of this when Agumon moves to attack Wizardmon, and Gatomon protects Kari, and Wizardmon and Gatomon head to Myotismon's crypt to retrieve Kari's Crest. Tai and Agumon follow them, running into Matt, T.K. and their Digimon along the way, who have befriended Pumpkinmon and Gotsumon, two other members of Myotismon's army whose hearts aren't in it. They all rush to the scene of Myotismon's battle with Gatomon and Wizardmon, but are too late to stop Wizardmon being tossed into the bay. Myotismon turns on them, destroying Pumpkinmon and Gotsumon, and then departs, with Gatomon as his captive.

Myotismon takes everything that the Ultimate Digimon dish out, and takes them all down, but then, Wizardmon arrives with Joe and T.K. and leaps into the fray, giving Kari her Crest, and then taking the full force of Myotismon's Grisly Wing, dying to save Kari's life.

The Masters waste no time in meeting the children, teleporting them to Etemon's stadium, where Piedmon easily defeats WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon, and kills Chuumon with a dagger meant for Mimi. There is no time to mourn his loss, however, as Piximon suddenly appears to cover the kids' retreat, sacrificing himself for their safety.

The enraged WarGreymon then spins through MetalSeadramon's body, ripping him to shreds.
