BiyomonI heard there's going to some big festival for us Digimon!

BukamonActually...I don't know what a festival is. But it sure sounds fun whatever it is!

KyokoHey, it's me. We've got a new case I think you'll love for sure.

KyokoAs for details...heehee, come back and we'll talk.

Thick AccentPlayer! Great to see ya here!

TentomonM'name's Tentomon! I can't tell ya how grateful I am to be having ya help me out, really!

TentomonI'll spare ya the formalities and just cut right to the chase, yeah? See, I'm putting together a big shindig, ya might say.

TentomonI'm callin' it the "Digimon Festival!"
"DigiFest" for short.

Player...?

PlayerG-guest of honor!? Me!? How come you need me there in the first place?

TentomonDon't tell me ya don't know! Player, buddy, yer a regular celebrity among us Digimon!

TentomonYer nice to us, ya talk with us, ya even help us out when we're in a bind! Doesn't hurt that ya hang tight with the Royal Knights, either.

TentomonBasically, ya just happen to be a real good detective we can count to solve our problems. Yer reputation ain't nothin' to sneeze at, y'know.

TentomonSo havin' someone like yaself at the festival's bound to help make it feel as big and important as it should! Yer an important piece of the puzzle!

TentomonI just figure the festival could be a good way for us Digimon to relax a little while and not worry about Eaters or Humans for once.

KyokoHeh, it's amazing the sheer variety of clients we attract these days. Taking on this case can only mean more exposure...and more clients!

KyokoSo I say we'd better take Tentomon up on this little proposition and see where it takes us.

Player...!

TentomonAwesome, then it's decided! I can't thank ya enough fer doin' this! I'll meet ya over at Ueno Museum once yer ready to get started.

TentomonAnd I want the one and only Player here as our guest of honor! That's...basically why I filed a case with ya.

TentomonWith yer help, I just know the festival will be a huge success! So what do ya say? Ya in or ya in?

KyokoTentomon's a real sweetheart for wanting to organize this festival. These have been hard times for most everyone, especially you.

KyokoThe festival's going on at the Ueno Museum. I know it's technically for work, but make sure to enjoy yourself, too. You deserve it.

TanemonWhoa! It's Detective Goggles! I've heard so much about you!

MotimonI'm so excited! You're gonna fight with us today, right? Right!?

Player?

TentomonHey, Player! Glad to see ya made it one piece!

TentomonNow that yer here, the DigiFest has officially begun! Our first event will be the "Digimon Battle Royale!"

ElecmonYaaaaaay! Wahoo!

OtamamonYou better be ready, 'cause I'm not gonna lose!

Player!?

TentomonOh yeah, I should, uh, explain what's going on to ya here, huh?

TentomonWe heard about how ya took Hackmon under yer wing and helped him Digivolve and even become a dyed-in the-wool Royal Knight!

TentomonAll of us really admire and look up to the Royal Knights! Once we heard the rumors about Hackmon, everyone wanted to battle you!

SyakomonWe wanna train with Detective Goggles so we can be Royal Knights one day, too!

TentomonKnowing that, I thought it'd be fun to set up an attraction where you go around challenging a bunch of Digimon! Ya'll play along, yeah?

Player...!

TentomonYa will!? I knew ya would! That makes me so happy to hear that! It'll definitely make everyone's day for sure!

TentomonThen without further ado, let's get the Digimon Battle Royale rollin'! Head on ahead to meet yer fearsome challengers!

TentomonRemember, yer gonna be the challenger of these fights at the DigiFest. What'll ya find ahead? Ya'll know soon enough. Just keep going!

TentomonDark times have fallen upon the Digital World... Our hero, Player, sets foot in U'Eno, a land in ruin, ruled by the terrible Dark Lord...

Player!?

TentomonOh, don't mind the narration! Everyone just loves a good story to set up fights! This one's meant to be like a fantasy story or some such. Anyway!

TentomonConsumed by evil powers, a band of dark Digivolved Digimon ambush the unlucky Player!

KuwagamonWe challenge you to a fiiiight!

BakemonYes! A fight with the Terrifying Trio of U'Eno!

Player...Trio?

???Hey, wait! Hold on!

PatamonHuff...huff... Whew, I made it!

PatamonThat's makes three! We're the Terrifying Trio of U'Eno!

KuwagamonI'm Devil Kuwagamon!

BakemonI'm Evil Bakemon!

PatamonAnd I'm Dark Patamon!

Player...

PatamonY-you just laughed, didn't you!?

PatamonI might still just be a Rookie Digimon who can't seem to Digivolve, but...

PatamonBut that changes here! I'll beat you here and finally Digivolve! You'll see!

PatamonOw... I still can't Digivolve. Why...? Why is it so hard for me? Nobody else has this problem!

Familiar Voice?Oh, worry not about your loss today, fair Digimon.

Player...!?

TentomonWhy, look, Princess Digimoon has graciously come to comfort the forlorn Dark Patamon.

Princess DigimoonEven in your darkest hour, you mustn't ever give up hope, for an unwavering heart is the most noble thing there is.

PatamonYes, your majesty... You're completely right. I was wrong. One day... One day I vow I'll become a brave, strong Angemon who can make you proud!

Princess DigimoonPlayer, I thank thee. Were it not for your bravery today, I fear that Digimon may well have lost his way forever...

NokiaHehehe, how am I doing? I make a pretty great princess, wouldn't you say!?

NokiaIf I were in charge, no matter how bad things would get, I'd make it all right and beautiful again in a flash! Flowers would bloom all over!

PlayerThat was like something you'd see in a real play! You sure paint a pretty picture!

NokiaI know, right!? That's why I'd be the perfect princess! You should be complimenting me more here!

Nokia...Anyway, Tentomon invited me out here today, too, as I bet you've noticed.

NokiaHe told me he was putting on an event that the other Digimon could have fun with and wanted me to help out.

NokiaAnd how could I not? It's the Rebel way to bust our butts to make everyone smile, so that's what I'm gonna keep on doing here, too!

NokiaBut enough talk! Time to get back on script! Um... where was I...? Oh yeah, here! Ahem.

Princess DigimoonDearest hero, I implore you, continue onward. Go forth and bring peace back to the land of U'Eno... Eh, hehe...

PlayerBetter do what she says and keep going...

Princess DigimoonAaaaaaaaaaaah!

Player!?

Princess DigimoonOh nooo, please, someone save meeeee! This foul beast is going to eat meeee!

Player...

LeomonSo you've come, Player.

LeomonI am Leomon, one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

LeomonI'm here to take my revenge for BanchoLeomon, who you and Hackmon slew!

LeomonHmm? Where are the other two Kings? Feh, I have no time for such idiotic questions!

Princess DigimoonOh, hero, Leomon, too, has had his heart tainted by the powers of darkness! Please, you must save me before it's too late!

LeomonI hereby challenge you to a duel. If you wish for the princess to stay alive, I would suggest you hurry up and agree.

PlayerNo, that's okay. No, really, it's fine. I swear. Seriously, go right on ahead. See if I care.

NokiaHey, what's the big idea!? This might be some boring job to you, but at least you're getting paid! I had to volunteer to be here! For free!

NokiaAaaaaaugh, now I'm really mad! Leomon, go teach Player over there a lesson! Someone didn't get the memo on how to be a good friend!

LeomonH-hostages aren't supposed to--

NokiaShut up, I don't care about that! If you don't want to hear from Omnimon, then you better go kick some serious ass right now!

LeomonWow, where did the nice princess who wanted to protect all of her Digimon go...? Can the power of darkness even corrupt human hearts?

LeomonIt's settled! We must fight so this malevolence might be purged from our hearts once and for all!

LeomonU, urgh... What...happened to me...?

Princess DigimoonYour mind was under a truly wicked spell, though you have now been set free of it.

LeomonPrincess... Hero... I must still be here now thanks to your help. I thank you...

Sneery Familiar Voice?Leomon, you wretched creature, I grow tired of your incompetence. It appears I must intervene myself now...

Sneery Familiar Voice?And I shall start with this impudent girl!

LeomonPrincess, look out!

LeomonUwaaaaagh!

Princess DigimoonLeomon! You saved me...

LeomonThis...is merely fate, princess... Guhaw!

Princess DigimoonNoooo, Leomon! Leomon!

Princess DigimoonWho would dare do something so terrible!?

Sneery Familiar Voice?Bwahaha! It is but merely a fitting end for such a worthless minion!

Princess Digimoon*gasp!* It can't be... It's Gluttonous Beelzemon!

Gluttonous Beelzemon...

Player...

Yuuko...

Gluttonous Beelzemon...Yes, it is I, Gluttonous Beelzemon.

YuukoI... I don't think I'm really cut out for this role, to be honest.

TentomonI'm real sorry about that. If I had a bigger budget, I woulda hired the real thing to do this, but you were our best bet, so...

NokiaOh, you're fine! Don't sweat it so much, Yuuko! If you squint hard enough, you could totally pass for Beelzemon!

NokiaI mean, just look at you! You're totally a bad girl! Yep! And, then, uh... Um... Oh! Your hair and your clothes practically match his!

Yuuko...

NokiaC'mon, don't quit now! If you stay, I promise we'll go out for ramen at a nice, quiet place! Please! Just a little more!

Gluttonous Beelzemon*sigh* Player, you have done well in coming all this way. Allow me to take Princess Digimoon off of your hands now.

Princess DigimoonNoooo! Stay away from meeee!

Gluttonous BeelzemonThe monsters left before you are unlike any you've met until now. I present to you, the Five Digimon Shoguns of Hell, each of them a living nightmare!

Princess DigimoonOoooh, the Five Digimon Shoguns of Hell! I wonder what ferocious Digimon are going to appear!?

Princess DigimoonWow, you were being really literal when you said they were nightmarish, huh? I'm impressed.

NumemonPlayer, your exalted journey as a hero ends here!

Gluttonous BeelzemonFarewell, o' noble hero! 'Tis time you learned your place at long last!

NumemonUuuuungh... You're...no ordinary hero if you can slay us...

NumemonBut know this. You haven't met the strongest of the Digimon Shoguns. You'll fall to their might yet! Take this!

GoldNumemonUnthinkable... How could all five Digimon Shoguns fall to a mere human!?

GoldNumemonEven so... Hahahaha, don't think the worst is over! Your nightmare has only just begun!

GoldNumemonIndeed, above us Five are the Seven Heroes. And above them are the Ten Fighters. Further still are the Twelve Devas of Olympus. Beyond them are...

Player...

PlayerAre...what? Go on, I love numbers! I get it, I get it! There are plenty left to go! Sorry, but I gotta run now!

NokiaHey, where are you going!? You still have to rescue me, you know!

TentomonPlayer, wait! We're not done here, ya know! Hold on!

MotimonHahaha, let's play tag now!

GomamonNo, let's play hide and seek!

PatamonHey, maybe if I can tag Player, I'll finally Digivolve! It's worth a shot!

Yuuko...You know what? I'm hungry.

KyokoOh? So once they finally caught you, they made you keep fighting until you beat the so-called "Dark Lord," huh?

KyokoAnd the festival also had other things like trivia and eating contests? Wow, that sounds like a good time. It must have been really lively there!

KyokoI bet you made the Digimon there really happy. And I bet it's done wonders for your mood as well, no?

Player...?

KyokoHuh? Why were you picked to be the hero rather than Nokia? Heehee, beats me. Even I can't know everything.

KyokoYou know, there's an old quote I heard once that sums it up well. Something like "Every hero needs a pair of goggles." It's a universal truth...

KyokoSo how does it feel being a big hero, then? Just don't let it go to your head because there's still plenty of work left for you to do, heehee.

PunimonWooooow, it's Detective Goggles! I can't believe you're really here!

TanemonI wonder what Digimon I'll become once I Digivolve?

TentomonIf ya need to be patched up and healed, don't be afraid to come on over and ask! I'll fix ya up in jiffy!

WormmonWhen we fight, I'm gonna win and Digivolve! I just know it! "Impossible" isn't a word that's in my dictionary...except for now! But otherwise no!

LalamonLalalala~ Battling is fun and all, sure, but what do you say we have a singing contest instead?

ElecmonCome on, come on! Hurry up so we can go fight already!

OtamamonMaybe if I grow up to be super strong like the Royal Knights, I can go back home to the Digital World sometime...

MotimonAaaachoo! Bleh, I think I've caught a cold. Maybe I shouldn't fight today...

Syakomon...Hey, hurry up and get over your cold already.

GazimonI've heard a lot of rumors about how strong you are, so you better not disappoint me!

BakemonYou were really strong back there, Detective Goggles... Ow...

KuwagamonI lost... I LOST! I'm such a loser! (Sob.)

PatamonHmm... How can I make myself finally Digivolve? I feel like I've tried everything...

WanyamonYou're going to be fighting even stronger Digimon next round! I'm curious to see who'll win!

PatamonI'm going to be watching your fights closely, Detective. It's important research for me to learn how to Digivolve!

MotimonHahaha, I haven't had this much fun in foreveeeer!

TentomonThe DigiFest is a huge success thanks to you, Player! Keep it up! There's still a lot of the show to go through yet!

TentomonHey, where ya off to all of sudden, Player!? Everybody's waiting for you to go fight! Show's not over yet!
