Impmon's Last Stand

'''Impmon goes on a rampage, determined to prove he is strong and Digivolve. But does he go to far in challenging a Deva?'''

Synopsis
It's summer, so Guilmon, Jeri, Kazu and Kenta are trying to cool down by splashing each other. Next to them Takato, Henry and Rika are discussing what they should do with the devas, since they are clearly going to attack them (due to differences regarding loyalty and digivolution). While Takato wants to fight them because they're bad guys, Rika is mostly angered for beeing forced into a fight and Henry is not sure if fighting them is the best thing to do. Unable to reach a consesus, they split up with Takato going to play, Henry to the dojo and Rika somewhere else. The playing is witnessed by Impmon, who once again is against it. Later, Calumon is found by three "ganguro girls" (at a time a fashionable style) who all comment on his cuteness. This is considered to be disgusting by the nearby Impmon, who then proceds to scare the girls away for insulting him. Meanwhile, Henry goes to the dojo, but preocupied with what the Devas are has a lackluster performance against his master, who suiftly unbalances him. Noticing this, his master suggests talking over tea, and provides a background of the devas mitological origin, namely how they fought the evil asura demons. However, he also argues that to asura's followers, the deva are evil, and how this is also is a valid argument. He then notes that the concepts of good and evil are interchangeable, not absolute, and thus dependent on the point of view. Later, as Calumon follows Impmon around (to his annoyance), laughing is heard from a digital field. The one who is laughing came from the juggernaut hole and is the horse themed deva, Indramon, who comments on Impmon having the same scent as all the human partened digimon. While Impmon tries to find the smell, he recoils from his memories of the experience of beeing with humans, as Indramon asks him why he hasn't evolved like the others. Impmon does't want to awnser, but before the fight can escalate Rika and Renamon arrive and Indramon leaves, warning that their existances would not be tolerated. Upset, Impmon demands that Renamon tell him why she interfered, while Rika and Renamon comment that Impmon wasn't nowhere near powerfull enough, especially since he can't evolve. In denial, Impmon runs off saying that he is strong, special and though enough to not need human partners. Later, Hypnos detects a transmission in binary encoded in ASCII saying "we are deva". Yamaki does not take it well, taking it as a challenge and proof of how humanity has advanced since their creation time. Meanwhile, the playtime continues, but a new kid unknown to any shows up to play hide and seek, and manages to weird everyone out. Impmon is then shown causing mischeaf, which ends up in burning more civilians, while Jeri asks Takato if there was anything worring him today, but Takato manages to hide from her that he was worried if Guilmon could keep up with the invading digimon. Then Calumon shows up, and Takato asks him if he has anything to do with Digivolution, but Calumon says he knows nothing about it. Meanwhile, Impmon had managed to be sorrounded by police officers, but before he can attack them Renamon nullifies the attack and takes him away without a trace. As Renamon questions him over his desire for power, Impmon accidentaly reveals that he had a partner once and reacts violently, but soon Indramon fully bioemerges nearby drawing all the tamers attention. Eagerly, Impmon challenges him to a fight, and politely requests for a personal fight despite Indramon's indiference. As the fight starts it is clear Impmon is no match, but he desperately goes on, and the Tamers begrugingly comply to his request. Yet, as Indramon brutally, almost sadistically beats him up to near deletion and Henry declaring that such actions were evil,the Tamers intervene and Guilmon, Renamon and Terriermon digivolve to their respective adult forms (as Takato confirms that Calumon is responsible for digivolution). However, Indramon in it's unrestrained power proves to be capable of deflecting their combined attacks back and is more than a match to them. As the episode ends, Impmon charges against Indramon.
