Episode 2: The Students Disappear! The Wavering Shadow of Sagomon

After returning to the Real World, finding out that Digimon can be Reloaded outside of DigiQuartz, Tagiru learns of Taiki and Yū's past experience with the Digimon a year before. Inspired to be at Taiki's level, Tagiru returns to DigiQuartz to begin a new Hunt. The two encounter a mysterious shadow behind the abductions of students: Sagomon. Sagomon overwhelms Gumdramon before he and Tagiru are saved by one of the three children, Ryōma Mogami. As this occurred, going to the alley were Tagiru got his Xros Loader, Taiki meets the Old Clock Store Owner and his Digimon Clockmon. The Owner proceeds to warn Taiki not to interfere with the Hunts due to expertise having an effect that would upset the balance of the "game". Though not intending to take part, Taiki promises to interfere if any one gets hurt in the cross fire. Nothing that Taiki has a strong will like Tagiru, the Old Clockmaker leaves, but not before giving Taiki the Hunter's Rulebook, which Tagiru forgot to get. With Yū following him to make sure he does not abuse Digimon like before, Tagiru finds Sagomon in the pool area, where the students are being held. Even after having Gumdramon Super Evolve and DigiXros with MetalTyrannomon to become Metal Arresterdramon, Tagiru still struggles until Taiki shows up with Shoutmon, who pushes back Sagomon with one punch before becoming OmegaShoutmon and DigiXrosing with Dorulumon to aid Arresterdramon. After defeating Sagomon and collecting his data, Tagiru, Taiki, and Yū return to the Real World with the missing students, who have no recollection of their time in "DigiQuartz". Soon after being yelled at by Shoutmon while also being praised him for finding a partner, Gumdramon vows to catch up to his rival before he and Tagiru run back to DigiQuartz and start a new Hunt.
