Opening Narration
Narrator: I gotta say, the Mystery Tamers are quite the adventurers. Who knows what kind of intense action will unfold now that so many people are working with them. There are so many mysteries to solve, and after Coraline’s bout with Lynxmon, things can only get stranger from here. I wonder what will happen next...

Part One
(The scene is Gideon’s mansion, specifically the foyer, where Gideon is pacing back and forth and Witchmon and Hookmon are waiting for someone)

Gideon: What’s taking Wizardmon so long? He should’ve found something for us to use by now!

Hookmon: You remember what Eyesmon told you? The Digital Forger requires concentration to work, and ever since Lynxmon betrayed us a few days ago, you’ve been obsessing over the Mystery Shack even more than before.

Gideon: That shack is everything I hate clumped into one lousy building! Dipper Pines and his annoying friends have been a thorn in my side for far too long!

Hookmon: Well, Captain, I don’t think—

Gideon: Stop calling me captain! I’m not a pirate!

Hookmon: Aye, sir. (Gideon looks at the Digital Forger noticing how the machine is slightly damaged) Inspecting the machine, sir?

Gideon: Using the Digital Forger too often to create multiple digimon damages it somehow.

Hookmon: Actually, it seems to be that simply using it causes the problem, Captain.

Gideon: I said stop calling me that! However, you’re right. We’ll look into that once Wizardmon gets back.

Witchmon: Wasn’t he supposed to be searching for supplies?

Gideon: Using my lynx-skin rug was a mistake. If they managed to trace it to me, we’d be ruined. If we use other people’s stuff, then they can’t do that. Wizardmon better not get too picky choosing what to steal. (A digital portal appears next to Witchmon) Speaking of which, here he is now. (Wizardmon enters the room holding something in a large box)

Witchmon: We were just talking about you, shorty. Did you find anything useful?

Wizardmon: What’s in this box seemed useful, so I took it from Manly Dan’s cabin. It seems his daughter uses what’s inside of it when it’s wintertime.

Gideon: Ah, perfect! I’ll just use the Digital Forger to turn what’s in the box into a digimon and they’ll know not to ever mess with Gideon Gleeful! (Gideon activates the Digital Forger as whatever is in the box is enveloped by an evil aura. A pair of red, glowing eyes shine from within the aura covering the box as Gideon and the others except Wizardmon cackle maniacally)

(The scene changes to the Mystery Shack, where a very tired Raz is walking downstairs to eat breakfast)

Muchomon: (Muchomon runs to Raz as fast as possible) Boss! Boss! Come quick! Something strange is happening!

Raz: What is it, Muchomon?

Muchomon: It’s snowing! (A very confused Raz follows Muchomon outside, where everyone is waiting for him. The entire area surrounding the Mystery Shack and the Mystery Shack itself are covered in snow)

Raz: How did this happen?! It’s supposed to be summer!

Lili: I don’t know, Raz. The snow seemingly appeared in an instant. In other words, we’re just as confused as you are. (Norman looks up at a part of the sky not covered by snow clouds)

Norman: Look at the sky! (Everyone notices the gaps in between the clouds. The gap consist of binary code)

Dipper: This is just like when Lynxmon attacked. When Coraline and I fought Lynxmon, we were in this strange pocket dimension. Another one of those strange digimon must be close. (Stan rushes outside with Ford, with both being shocked by the sudden change of weather)

Ford: What’s going on?!

Stan: What’s with the snow!? We’re going to have to cancel tonight’s show now! (Stan angrily stomps inside and turns to Gabumon, who is currently dressed as a British punk and is rehearsing his lines) The show’s canceled, Gabumon! The weather decided it wanted to be cold today! (Gabumon starts celebrating)

Ford: Hmm. Dipper, do you know what’s happening?

Dipper: We’re in a pocket dimension.

???: And I know just how we’re getting out of it! (The mysterious, loud voice makes everyone stand still, constantly looking for where the voice came from)

Raz: Who said that?

???: I did! (A fast-moving blur passed by everyone multiple times and then stopped in front of them, revealing a superhero-like ice skater with lightning bolts on his gloves doing some kind of heroic-looking pose)

Raz: Woah, who are you?

???: I am Cold Bolt, the fastest superhero in the Pacific Northwest! And who might you be?

Raz: We’re the Mystery Tamers. My name is Raz.

Cold Bolt: Well, glove boy, I’ve got news for you! The villain you’re looking for is an evil pirate named Hookmon.

Coraline: That’s the digimon Lynxmon mentioned!

Cold Bolt: You know about him, huh? Good to know! I’ve gathered intelligence on him and he’s built a weather machine that he’s storing in an old warehouse at the southernmost part of town. (Cold Bolt presses a button on his uniform that generates a holographic projection of a warehouse) I tried breaking in, but his minions are too powerful for me to deal with. Their names are Witchmon and Wizardmon, and their both really crafty. I’d recommend keeping your eyes peeled, because they can appear at any moment.

Coraline: Thanks for the info. If you’ll excuse us for a moment, we need to talk for a moment (Coraline has the other Mystery Tamers privately chat a safe distance away from Cold Bolt) Okay, who seriously trusts this guy?

Wybie: I don’t know, Coraline. If what he’s saying is true, we’ll be needing all the help we can get.

Mabel: I agree. He looks cool, like a superhero.

Lili: Or a supervillain. For all we know, he could be the true cause of the cold weather. (The digimon partners stood around, confused as to what was going on)

Coronamon: What do you think they’re talking about?

Bearmon: Probably about going on an adventure. So long as I don’t get to digivolve again, then I’m good.

Ludomon: Get over it, Bearmon! You’re going to have to digivolve whether you want to or not. You can’t keep being scared forever.

Muchomon: I think they’re talking about the weather. I don’t like the cold, so we better get onto making things warm again soon. (Cold Bolt begins losing his enthusiasm, doing stretches to pass the time. Muchomon takes notice of this. A sudden lightning strike interrupts everyone’s conversations and everyone looks to where the lightning came from. A cloaked being with a staff the seemingly the source of the lightning)

Cold Bolt: Wizardmon!

Wizardmon: Hello, Cold Bolt. Care to get pulverized again?

Cold Bolt: Not this time, evil-doer! I have new friends that will help me kick you to the curb.

Wizardmon: Electro Squall! (Wizardmon creates a mighty lightning bolt that almost hits Cold Bolt)

Cold Bolt: Spinning Cutter! (Cold Bolt spins incredibly fast, slashing Wizardmon with his ice skates) How do you like that?! Cool, Huh?! (Various digimon try attacking Wizardmon, only to miss) Watch this, everyone! (Cold Bolt slashes Wizardmon with his skates, causing Wizardmon to put his hand on his side, as if injured) Take that!

Wizardmon: That hurt! (Cold Bolt smirks) You’ll get yours soon enough, “hero”. (Wizardmon uses a portal to escape the battle)

Cold Bolt: You better run, shorty! Not so tough when Hookmon and Witchmon aren’t backing you up, huh?! (The Mystery Tamers, most of their digimon and everyone else start cheering Cold Bolt on. Only Muchomon is silent)

Stan: Cold Bolt, you’re just the hero we need! Would you like to work here at the Mystery Shack? We could make millions with talent like yours!

Cold Bolt: What can I say? It’s a pleasure to play the role of hero. (Muchomon begins to get serious)

Raz: That was so cool! I get to meet a real superhero! Are those ice skates amplified by technology or are you just super fast? This is so cool!

Lili: I take it that you’re impressed?

Raz: Yup!

Cold Bolt: Tell you what, kid, I’ve got an idea. Hookmon and his goons will most likely try to attack you all themselves, so, to make it tougher for him, we should split up so we can deal with them individually, because fighting them all at once would be a fool’s errand.

Coraline: That sounds like a good plan. What do you think, Ford?

Ford: I’ll hold the fort in case Hookmon’s henchmen show up again. Norman, Vi-Elecmon should be healthy by now, so see if you can bring him along.

Norman: Cool! I’ll go get him. (Norman rushes inside to get Vi-Elecmon)

Coraline: Raz, I know you’re a fan of Cold Bolt, but can you and Muchomon wait for Norman? Him getting Vi-Elecmon to work with us might take awhile.

Muchomon: Time out! Coraline, that “superhero” is a sham!

Coraline: He just saved us from Wizardmon, Muchomon. I’d say he earned our trust.

Raz: Show some respect, Muchomon.

Muchomon: I don’t know what you’re up to, Mr. Ice Skates, but I’m on to you!

Cold Bolt: So, does the plush toy come with an off switch? (Muchomon gets really angry at Cold Bolt for the insult. Raz looks over toward Coraline and Bearmon)

Raz: I’ll stay behind. Muchomon and I need to talk for a moment.

Cold Bolt: I have a temporary base near a lake. We’ll get into specifics there. Follow me. (Muchomon squints at Cold Bolt, incredibly worried about what this new “hero” is going to do next)

Part Two
(The scene is Ford’s lab, where Raz and Muchomon are arguing and Norman is getting Vi-Elecmon out of the Healing Pod)

Muchomon: I’m telling you, boss, Cold Bolt can’t be trusted!

Raz: Get a grip, Muchomon. Cold Bolt is on our side.

Muchomon: Before Wizardmon attacked, I caught a glimpse of Cold Bolt stretching.

Raz: And your point is?

Muchomon: Cold Bolt was signaling Wizardmon to attack! They’re in cahoots! They have to be!

Raz: Do you hear yourself right now? Relax. Cold Bolt seems to be an athlete, so the stretching isn’t odd at all. Then again... (Raz began thinking things through) Tell you what, Muchomon. I’ll keep an eye on him just to be safe. Deal?

Muchomon: Deal. (Norman approaches Raz and Muchomon) How’s Vi-Elecmon?

Norman: Ford miscalculated. Vi-Elecmon needs more rest. It turns out he has a long way to go before he can actually leave the pod, so I’ll stay here and keep an eye on him.

Raz: Vi-Elecmon was rude to us before. Why are you so fixated on him?

Norman: I guess I felt sorry for him. Besides, he went out of his way to contact help to save the other digimon, so he seems like a good person. Also, I snapped a picture of my face with one of things Wybie told me about.

Raz: A Digi-Phone?

Norman: Yeah. Let’s see if we can contact Agatha with it. (Norman starts using the Digi-Phone until Agatha appears on his screen)

Agatha: Hello, Norman. How are you?

Norman: Just fine, Agatha.

Raz: How did you manage to get the Digi-Phone to work in the pocket dimension? Coraline told me it hers wouldn’t work properly.

Norman: Maybe it’s because we’re inside of Ford’s lab?

Raz: We’ll have to figure that out later. You think Agatha can appear in other peoples’ Digi-Phones?

Agatha: I seem to be able to show up in peoples’...um... What are the things Ford uses again?

Raz: Computers.

Agatha: Right. If there is a computer, I can enter it. Speaking of which, this whatever it is seems to have things in it. Maybe I can help you use them. I just need to figure out how these things work.

Raz: Awesome! Muchomon, we need to get going. Our friends are waiting.

(The scene changes to a large makeshift base made of ice, where Raz and Muchomon meet up with the other members of the Mystery Tamers and Cold Bolt)

Mabel: Hey, slowpoke. What took you so long?

Raz: Muchomon and I had a small chat.

Muchomon: Everything is cool now, Cold Bolt.

Cold Bolt: Hmph. Excellent. Where’s the other one?

Muchomon: He’s back home. (Cold Bolt briefly and subtly became annoyed, but quickly regained composure as he skated to a nearby wall. Raz and Muchomon took notice of this, but everyone else did not)

Cold Bolt: According to my sources, Hookmon and his henchmen have stored the weapon called “Togemogumon” in one of four warehouses. If it weren’t for my bad memory, I’d remember which one that was. Either way, my cybernetic enhancements allow me to visualize a map of where the weapon might be. (Raz started to get suspicious as Cold Bolt begins drawing a map to the four locations) We’ll each form groups of up to four people and see which one finds the machine first. Blue-haired girl, you’re with the pine tree kid and you’ll be heading west. The girl with brown hair and Wybie should go east. You, with the curly hair.

Neil: I’m Neil.

Cold Bolt: You and the serious one head north. I’ll tag along with the penguin and his friend as we head south. (Muchomon begins squinting at Cold Bolt with suspicion)

Raz: Can you tell us what this “Togemogumon” is, Cold Bolt?

Cold Bolt: Well, if you must know, he’s an incredibly deadly killing machine. He’s the machine I was telling you about. Weren’t you paying attention, or was your buddy just busy thinking of how much he was jealous of me?

Muchomon: What’s there to be jealous of, you big doofus? Even Dipper might be fooled by you, but not me!

Cold Bolt: Fine. Here I thought we were cool. Tell you what, penguin, I’ll prove to you I can be trusted. Togemogumon is dangerous, so when we find it, I’ll deal with him. Got it? (Muchomon sighs and nods his head) Okay then. Let’s move! (Time passes as each group goes their separate ways. Eventually, Raz and Muchomon stop by some apple trees and Muchomon picks up a few of the apples that fell to the ground as Muchomon catches up to Raz)

Raz: Now’s not the time to eat, Muchomon.

Muchomon: Actually, I think now is the perfect time for a meal. Digimon digivolve faster if they eat, so if we run into trouble, this will be good. Besides, I didn’t eat breakfast yet.

Cold Bolt: We’re here. Look. (Cold Bolt points to a warehouse covered in snow. Muchomon and Cold Bolt manage to get the door open, revealing an eerily spacious room that looked more like an arena than a warehouse. A somewhat small, armored digimon cowering in a corner looks toward Raz with worried eyes)

???: “Help me!” (Raz could hear a meek voice in his head that was not his own. Raz is stunned by the voice and looked toward Togemogumon, who was the only one who Raz believes has that voice)

Raz: Woah!

Muchomon: What happened?

Raz: I could hear Togemogumon’s thoughts! (Togemogumon and Cold Bolt seem surprised) Now he’s thinking “Get away from that guy! He’s going to kill us!” Wait, what? (Cold Bolt changes his demeanor from shocked to serious as Togemogumon seemed alerted to something)

Togemogumon: Behind you! (Raz looks around and dodges the sharp blade of Cold Bolt’s ice skates and the warehouse doors are closed by an unseen force)

Muchomon: I called it! Cold Bolt was a villain the whole time!

Cold Bolt: To be honest with you, I thought the ruse was getting obvious, but Wizardmon and I put on quite a show, don’t you think? By the way, my name is Rinkmon, so you can quit calling me that stupid name now.

Raz: You must be the source of the pocket dimension we’re in!

Rinkmon: Right on the money! Now, as much as I enjoyed harming Wizardmon, I’ll enjoy cutting you two up even more! Oh, and don’t try talking to your friends. My own “friends” have them on thin ice! (The scene cuts to Wybie and Mabel confronting Wizardmon and then cuts to Neil and Lili dealing with Witchmon. While that is happening, Coraline and Dipper are following the coordinates Rinkmon gave them)

Coraline: Okay, we should be near the warehouse by now.

Dipper: Get ready, Kotemon. Anything could happen. (Bearmon stops in his tracks and alerts Coraline and the others of a pirate-like presence in front of them)

Hookmon: Harharharhar! I’ve been waiting ages to meet you four.

Dipper: That must be Hookmon!

Hookmon: Indeed! Now’s it’s time to walk the plank! (Hookmon points his cannon arm at the four heroes and gets ready to fire)

Part Three
(The scene is in a wintery forest, where Hookmon is about to fire his arm cannon at Coraline and her friends)

Hookmon: Captain Cannon! (Hookmon fires his arm cannon at Bearmon but misses) Come on, bear, digivolve! Are you a landlubber that can put up a fight, or are you afraid to bear your teeth?!

Coraline: Bearmon, you need to digivolve! Send this pirate packing! (Bearmon begrudgingly digivolves into Grizzlymon as Kotemon swings his sword at Hookmon, only to miss)

Hookmon: This is what I wanted! An actual challenge! Harharharhar! (Grizzlymon swings his claws at Hookmon, who quickly dodges his attack) Rinkmon did well leading you right to me. (Hookmon blocks another swing from Grizzlymon)

Dipper: Rinkmon? Wait, are you talking about Cold Bolt?

Hookmon: So that’s the name he came up with? Must’ve been at the last minute. I half expected Turbo Skates given how uncreative he is.

Coraline: He was working for you?!

Dipper: We’ve been duped! (Dipper facepalms in embarrassment) Why didn’t we notice?!

Kotemon: I think we owe Muchomon an apology!

Hookmon: Only if you get to live, landlubbers! (The scene transitions from Hookmon using Captain Cannon on Grizzlymon to Muchomon fleeing from Rinkmon as he is using Spinning Cutter)

Rinkmon: Give up, penguin! I’m too fast for you!

Muchomon: What made you drop the act, skater man?! (Muchomon barely dodges Rinkmon’s kicks) What made you attack Raz?!

Rinkmon: If that kid can read minds, it was only a matter of time ‘til he read mine! He had to go! (Muchomon gets kicked and slammed into the corner of the arena) And now that the penguin is out of the way, time for the finishing blow! (Rinkmon rushes toward Raz as a blue light shines from Raz’s Digi-Phone)

Muchomon: Muchomon, digivolve to... (A blue light envelopes Muchomon as he takes on a large, rooster-like form) ...Akatorimon!!! (Rinkmon changes his target once he sees that Akatorimon appeared)

Rinkmon: A big rooster, huh? Come and get some!

Akatorimon: Nobody backstabs the boss and gets away with it, Rinkmon!

Rinkmon: I do believe I just did that, birdbrain. (Rinkmon tries to grab Raz, but Raz punches Rinkmon in the face, which didn’t do much other than make Rinkmon let Raz go and Raz ran toward Akatorimon)

Akatorimon: Why would you try punching an Armor-level digimon?!

Raz: I had to! He was going to kill me!

Akatorimon: I know that, but Armor-level digimon are tough! Be careful!

Raz: Pay attention! (Rinkmon tries slashing Akatorimon but misses as Akatorimon hits Rinkmon with his left wing. The scene transitions to Wybie and Mabel’s fight with Wizardmon. Zubamon and Lunamon had been dodging Wizardmon’s attacks when Wybie and Mabel got too close to the fight)

Zubamon: Everyone, stand back! We have this! (Wizardmon looks at the team in a bewildered manner)

Wizardmon: You would put yourself before others? Admirable. Dare I say it, it actually sounds respectable. You’re a better friend to them than Rinkmon was to me.

Wybie: Who?

Wizardmon: Cold Bolt. He worked with us.

Mabel: What?!?! The superhero was a supervillain?! That’s insane!

Wizardmon: Yeah, and I get the feeling that he enjoyed hurting me back there.

Wybie: Well, if you’re a bad guy, then you had it coming. (Wizardmon gets ready to fight Zubamon and Lunamon)

Wizardmon: Thunder Cloud! (Wizardmon tries and fails to hit Zubamon with the attack)

Lunamon: Let’s get him, Zubamon! (Zubamon and Lunamon attack Wizardmon as the scene transition back to Akatorimon and Rinkmon’s fight. Akatorimon appears exhausted as an equally exhausted Rinkmon smirks at Akatorimon and chuckles)

Rinkmon: Gotta say, Akatorimon, you fight better than I thought. You’re still not gonna win, though. (Akatorimon looks toward the frightened Togemogumon and then to Raz, who gave him a serious, determined look. Akatorimon charged at Rinkmon as Rinkmon raced toward Akatorimon)

Akatorimon: Akatori Kick!

Rinkmon: Spinning Cutter! (The two attacks clash as the scene transitions to Neil and Lili’s fight with Witchmon. Witchmon is flying at lightning speed as Coronamon and Ludomon are dodging her attacks. Lili and Neil are backed into a corner as Ludomon and Coronamon deal with Witchmon’s attacks. The scene transitions back to Akatorimon and Rinkmon as they exchange hits) Take this! (Akatorimon gets knocked down, only to get back up. Akatorimon notices how close Raz is to Rinkmon)

Akatorimon: Aha! I’ve got just what you need to put you down for good! (Akatorimon hits Rinkmon with his right wing)

Rinkmon: And that would be what?

Akatorimon: Raz! (Raz punches Rinkmon in the gut as Akatorimon pins Rinkmon to a wall) Chicken Red Eyes! (Rinkmon looks into Akatorimon’s eyes as his body starts turning to stone)

Rinkmon: What?!?! I’ll get you for this! (Rinkmon turns completely into stone. Akatorimon smashes him to pieces, making Rinkmon delete and leave behind a pair of ice skates)

Akatorimon: Serves you right, skater man. (The pocket dimension everyone was in disappears, reverting Gravity Falls to its summer season. The scene transitions to the Mystery Shack as Togemogumon approaches Raz and Muchomon)

Togemogumon: I never got say it back at the warehouse, but thank you, friends. That guy was scary. I’m Togemogumon.

Raz: I’m Raz and this is Muchomon.

Togemogumon: Thank you. You two saved my life. That bully locked me in here to lure people like you into a trap.

Raz: Yeah, and most of us fell for it, including me for a time. Muchomon was the only one who knew better. (The rest of the Mystery Tamers arrived at the Mystery Shack exhausted)

Neil: Hey, Raz. Good job taking down Rinkmon.

Lili: Coraline told us all about it. It was all a setup to get rid of us.

Raz: This is Togemogumon. We saved him from Rinkmon. (Everyone said hi to Togemogumon) Also, we went through the strangest fight yet! When I found Togemogumon, I could hear what he was thinking!

Lili: Oh really? Prove it. What am I thinking right now? (Raz looks as if he was thinking)

Raz: You we’re thinking “Let’s go and get some hamburgers”. Was I right? (Lili stares at Raz shocked beyond belief)

Lili: Those were my exact thoughts! You’re a psychic! (Everyone, including the digimon, became just as shocked as Lili)

Dipper: Ford would love to hear about this! Looks like we have a real superhero right here. (Dipper looks toward Muchomon) Oh, and sorry for doubting you, Muchomon. To be honest, I was really embarrassed with myself when I figured out we were tricked.

Muchomon: Look, the important thing is we beat Rinkmon. By the way, what was with the ice skates? When I beat Rinkmon, he turned into these. (Raz shows his friends the ice skates)

Coraline: Interesting. I think we should investigate this. (Wendy and Monodramon arrive at the Mystery Shack)

Wendy: Hey! (Wendy runs toward the team) Can I ask you for a favor? I’ve been looking for— (Wendy sees the ice skates) My ice skates! I was looking all over them! How’d you find these? You guys didn’t visit my cabin today.

Dipper: Apparently, an evil digimon named Rinkmon transformed into them when Raz and Muchomon defeated him. Was this all Rinkmon really was?

Mabel: Oh, what about Hookmon and the others?!

Dipper: Oh yeah, that’s right! We know who the main villain is. Hookmon seems to be the one behind all of this.

Coraline: And the next time he shows up, we’ll be ready for him. (The scene cuts to Sasha, Milla and Oleander meeting up outside of the Gravity Falls museum)

Sasha: I must admit, all of this walking around hasn’t done much good. Everyone we’ve spoken to doesn’t seem to have any problems regarding memories. It’s clear that something is wrong, but what?

Milla: Don’t worry about it too much. We’ll find a solution to this.

Oleander: We’d better. If we were trying to keep this stuff secret, we did a terrible job of it.

Sasha: Relax. (Sasha begins whispering into Oleander’s ear) The Diginauts are still a secret to most people. (Sasha stops whispering in Oleander’s ear) Besides, with that bizarre weather anomaly gone, we should go to the Mystery Shack to inform people about any findings we have. That is to say, we found nothing. Hopefully, MetalGarurumon and the others might’ve found something by now. (Magnamon frantically flies toward Oleander and the others)

Oleander: Oh good, you’re here!

Milla: Did you find anything, Magnamon? You look troubled.

Magnamon: I have terrible news to report! WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon have gone missing! (The group becomes shocked) They were with me one moment, but I heard a noise behind me and they were gone! They just vanished! (Milla tries using her Digi-Phone, but it doesn’t work. Sasha tries using his Digi-Phone but the same thing happens)

Milla: No! If the Digi-Phone doesn’t work, then that means they could be...

Sasha: We’ll find them, Milla. I promise.

Oleander: I don’t know about you two, but I don’t trust this town. Something tells me that there’s much more going on here than I think...
