Welcome to Gaia! ::

Wolf had been walking for some time before he heard a soft growling noise coming from his left and a slightly sharper panting as two figures ran through the trees towards him. Wolf looked closely not knowing just what the two were as one resembled a dinosaur of some sort and the other was a small rotund creature with wings sprouting out of it's head. Wolf shrugged as the two didn't seem to be much of a threat and was just about to continue walking when the dinosaur yelled something about it's breath and proceeded to send a large ball of fire towards the flying creature and Wolf. At first Wolf thought it might hit the flying creature and dissipate but as it neared him the flying creature rose higher into the air frantically leaving the fireball to head just at Wolf. He heard Demidevimon whisper from his bag, Need help? Wolf shook his head slightly before jumping up and grabbing a tree branch above himself before pulling his body up smoothly as though it were a continuation of the jump and not an exercise for his arms.

Wolf was approaching the edge of the forest as the sun began to set and the shadows lengthened between the trees. A slight shifting in the bag on his back brought him to a stop as he remained still so that demidevimon could more easily work it's way out of his bag. Moments later the small demonic digimon was fluttering above his head as it balanced itself with slight flaps of it's wings before landing on his head and saying, Excellent, well I'm out now but I want to warn you I have a feeling something dark lies ahead. Something more powerful than my current form. Wolf smiled slightly at the words and said simply, Not a problem, perhaps we can gain a powerful ally. It's all a matter of negotiation right? If they want the impression that they are in charge that will be fine. Once we have enough power to stand against them we'll renegotiate. Demidevimon laughed softly at Wolf's words before saying, That is exactly why you make a good partner. I can't say for sure where it's hiding but it's definitely on the savannah somewhere. Wolf nodded and continued forward until the trees cleared and the savannah lay before him.

Nero repeatedly bashed the tree's trunk with his knuckles. He had been at this for an hour taking his anger out on the tree. Nero asked his digimon to get in as much training as possible, the next time he met wolf, that tamer be the one trembling in fear. He landed one last punch on the tree before seeing the red on his hands. Nero averted his eyes immediately, he hated the sight of blood. It was the blood that shocked him into his normal self. Nero shook at the sight of his bloody hands, why had he done this?

Nero reached into his bag and took out plain white bandages wrapping them around his knuckles. He shouted to the sky,"Gatomon,Lopmon, Gomamon!" The three digimon walked in carrying a net of fish.
"Looks like we caught dinner."
Nero was not paying attention, he kept thinking of those words,
You say your heart is black, maybe we need to exterminate it
He gripped his head again remembering something else.
"Sir, I'm sorry we can't explain this,"
"Nero your the smartest on our staff, do you realize that these disturbances have access to our country's secrets. Imagine if it was a terrorist group."
"Sir this isn't human."
"Well what is it then alien"
"Sir if you could just assign somebody else, I can't take this anymore"
"Nero your my smartest man, either do it or we'll imprison you for treason!"
"Alright sir,"
The memory was a sour one and for the rest of the night a scowl was displayed on Nero's face.

Ninjamon was getting tired and stop cutting the path so Soma took the katana and began to cut away at some vines when they reached an opening.
"Alright, its time."
Soma said as his digivice began to glow and Patamon and Demidevimon digivolved to their champion forms.
"Alright, Angemon and Devimon train over there while me and Ninjamon train here."
Understood.
This will be fun.
They said before they flew off and began to train.
"Alright Ninjamon, I want you to come at me with everything you got."
You sure?
"I'm sure, now come at me."
Soma said before he tossed Ninjamon's katana in front of him before he grabbed it while he ran towards Soma.
DIE!
He yelled as he leaped into the air and began slashing his katana at Soma while he did his best to use his magic to stop the attacks, his energy slowly draining with each bit of magic he used, but the bracelet he wore stopped that greatly.

"Ugh. But let's wait a little for Kuromon and Shiromon to show up," Maika said dully as she gazed off in the direction toward which the two little mischief makers had bounded.

Gigimon shook his head and heaved a sigh of exasperation. "Those two can be such little rascals. Don't they know -" Maika's sudden outbursts of giggles caused him to pause and stare at her wonderingly. "What?"

She smiled half-heartedly and attempted to ruffle the Digimon's small round head despite its lack of hair. "I don't know... You're just too serious. Plus, they're coming right now. Look."

And sure enough, two black and white blobs were heading toward them, bouncing joyfully with each step they took. The two Digimon were twins, although one seemed to be an embodiment of darkness, while the other, a symbol of light. Strangely however, Kuromon was not as gloomy as one would have expected him to be.

"Heeeeey! We're baaaaaaaaaack!" the bunny-like creatures sang at the top of their lungs. "And we've brought food!"

Maika exchanged glances with Gigimon and then looked down at Kuromon and Shiromon dubiously. "Guys, you know what happened last time..."

Devimon came back with three baskets of water, two were to be dumped on Soma while one would be used to put the fire out. Devimon set two baskets down near Angemon while he set the third next to the fire. Ninjamon had gotten out of the tree and began to build tents for everyone since they would all need their rest, especially for what he was about to tell them as soon as Soma woke up. Angemon took one of the baskets and dumped the water in it on Soma and he started to shake. Devimon put out the fire as Ninjamon set up the last tent. Angemon took the last basket and dumped it on Soma, but he still would not come to.
Why did you do this Ninjamon?!
Angemon yelled as Ninjamon turned to face him.
Don't worry, you won't have to deal with me any longer!
Ninjamon yelled before he vanished into a puff of black smoke, he was not going to tell them now.
Look what you did.
Devimon said as the last bit of the fire went out.
Only you can get so worried over something like this.
Its not that, you remember the Dark Pit, right?
Of course, Soma almost died... Oh, alright. Now I know why your worried.
Devimon said as he took the D-Power off of Soma's waist and began to press some buttons and it began to glow like it had at the Ocean.
What the heck are you doing?!
Angemon yelled before the Digivice shot out a bright light and some cards came down.
What? How did you do that?
Angemon said before he saw another Angemon in Devimon's spot.
What... Happened?
He thought before the Angemon flashed and Devimon was there again.
These will help I guess.
He said as he put the cards into a carrying case Soma normally had on him.

Ikkuya was knocked out a snoring underneath his usual tree. He suddenly shot up and sat at the sound of a beeping sound. "huh!? Who!? What!?... oh.." He reached into his backpack that laid beside him and pulled out his digivice. It was peeping, and showed a message:

Time to Wake Up
Can't Have You Sleeping All Day.

Ikkuya grunted and muttered something under his breath as he stood, putting the pack on. He was still a little out of it as he yawned, stretching. "Now where to today...?"

Again, his thoughts were interrupted by Kamina. "I smell something... smoke, maybe?" "You're kidding, right? No way someone could lite this place up.. it's not even possible." "No, it's nothing like that, baka. Look, over there." Kamina pointed to a spot within the thicket of the forest. There was a small flicker of dim orangish light showing on a small group of trees. Ikkuya squatted and squinted his eyes to try to get a better view of it. "Campers, maybe?" "Way out here?" "It's possible.""If you say so. Wana go say Hi?" Ikkuya yawned again. "Not particularly. How do you even know if they're friendly? They could be, I dono, viruses traveling through the forst." Kamina stared at Ikkuya. "Now you're just being lazy and idiotic. Let's go." He started to pull on Ikkuya's arm, yanking him toward the light. "Hey, hey, hey, hey! I said I'm not going.""And I say you are."
