Synopsis
returns and fighting alongside they take on. After some tricky attacks from the Hell Clown, both Mega Digimon seem to have the upper-hand in the fight. Just as everyone else is about to digivolve, Piedmon pulls out a white cloth and the confused DigiDestined don’t know what to think of it. He quickly throws the cloth which grows into a huge sheet that covers the Mega Digimon. Tai and Matt are covered with a sheet when they run to their partners. Piedmon then removes the sheets to show that they have seemingly "disappeared". He then reveals they have been turned into key chain figurines. The other children try to run away while holds him off but he too gets turned into a figurine.

The only way the group is able to escape is by using trapezes placed over a large chasm. As they attempt this, Joe, Izzy and are captured. While the rest hide terrified, Piedmon stalks them in a sadistic game of hide and seek. When Piedmon attacks, and  hold him off to give the others time but are captured and transfigured into figurines.

Once finding temporary safety, Sora charges T.K to take Kari and run. T.K., Kari,  and  start to flee the area, however, Gomamon decides to stay with Sora to fight back. She tells him, he stands no chance against the demon jester and to help T.K and Kari, along with Patamon. As Gomamon reluctantly turns to leave, Piedmon bursts into the passageway from the floor. As he brags that they will all become part of his collection, Gomamon snatches the figurine of Matt and throws it to Sora, who throws it to T.K and is then turned into a "doll" herself. T.K, Kari and Patamon escape through the door at the end of the corridor, while Gomamon (ofscreen) is turned into a figurine himself. As the rest of the group has fallen prey to Piedmon's demonic abilities, the only ones left are T.K., Kari and Patamon.

While the two of the remaining children try to escape up a rope, Piedmon catches up to them and Patamon digivolves into to try to fight him off. Unfortunately he is easily defeated and Piedmon then cuts the rope, climbing after the two children. When Piedmon attempts to take T.K, Kari grabs onto the boy, despite T.K imploring her to let him go for her own safety. Kari refuses to let him go, so Piedmon cuts the rope further, causing T.K. and Kari to fall. As they fall, T.K. clutches the keychain form of Matt and after hearing the encouraging words of his older brother, he is reminded that hope remains. His Crest begins to glow and Angemon finally digivolves into, who catches the two falling children and places them safely on the ground. He flies up to deal with Piedmon, who throws a sheet at the former. The archangel slices the sheet in two and delivers a single slash to Piedmon using his Excalibur sword. He recovers the keychains and sends Piedmon hurtling away, seemingly to death.

MagnaAngemon then returns every key chain into the Digimon and Humans they once were using his "Magna Antidote" ability. They think it's all over until Piedmon resurfaces with hundreds of Vilemon soldiers. Just then, Mimi and arrive with an army composed of the Digimon the children had earlier befriended. The partner Digimon digivolve to their highest forms and, alongside their allies, fight back against the Vilemon. After they've been softened up, MagnaAngemon opens his "Gate of Destiny" to suck in the Vilemon horde, at which point WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon corner Piedmon and blast him into the void as well, defeating him for good, causing the last remnant of Spiral Mountain to disappear. The reinforcements Mimi brought along return home. As light begins to return to the world, Izzy gets a message from Gennai telling them that the were never the real enemy, that the real enemy is the one who created the Dark Masters. Just then, the ground shakes, the sky grows dark and the DigiDestined soon realize that the fight is not over.
