Exchange of Sins

Prologue: An Unexpected Visitor

The sun was beating down mercilessly like every other day in the MudFrigimon village. With no clouds for shade and no rain for a sufficient amount of water the idea decent settlement in such a place was doomed to fail. Many digimon would call this place hell, but for the MudFrigimon it was their sanctuary. Not only was it quiet and peaceful, it was a place overlooked by the demon lords as a wasteland. Due to recent events, the Digital World was in turmoil and their village had become a temporary refuge for those wanting to escape from the demon lords' control. And now it had become a sanctuary to many more…

Right now, a mother MudFrigimon was watching as her little one played with his friends. They didn't have much, but one of the refugees had brought along a ball, which he'd brought with him as a memory of what used to be fun and carefree life. The elecmon had left the village a long time ago and as a gift for letting him stay he had left the ball for the children to play with since it had been the only thing he had on him. It was a shame the mother MudFrigimon thought because he had been so good with the children.

The mother MudFrigimon was so absorbed in her thoughts that she hadn't heard her son calling her. It took the child's tug on the arm to get his mother to snap back into reality.

"Oh sorry son, I was just thinking. What is it?"

"Another visitor", the young MudFrigimon pointed past his mother's left shoulder.

She turned in the direction her son had pointed to see a figure walking towards the village. The mother MudFrigimon suspected it was another refugee coming for a place to stay. Then suddenly without warning, they collapsed. The mother MudFrigimon jumped to her feet and told the children to go home. She made her way towards the fallen stranger as fast as her stubby feet could take her. When she finally made it, she examined them to see if they were hurt or worse… However, this wasn't a digimon that the mother MudFrigimon had ever seen before. That's when she realized that this wasn't even a digimon at all. It was a human… A girl to be more precise. She was covered from head to toe in dust and so thickly covered that the MudFrigimon couldn't even tell the color of the girl's ratty clothes or her short hair. Who knows how long she'd been walking for and without any supplies as well from what the MudFrigimon saw. Whatever she trying to get away from, it was worse than trekking what most digimon called hell.

The girl turned her head to the MudFrigimon her dark eyes being the only feature that wasn't touched by the dust. They revealed fear as she spoke weakly, "Please help me…I don't want to go back…I don't…" before passing out all together.

"Oh my Lord" the MudFrigimon spoke in horror. She picked up the girl and cradled her in her arms with the same care she would take with an in training digimon and headed towards the village to get medical attention for the girl.

On the way there she whispered to the girl, "Don't worry, nobody will find you here."

In the distance, the sound of a motor could be heard...
