The midday sun shines down on the streets, making a vibrant city shine right back. Near the edge of the city, leaves dance in the wind and with one another, bending and twisting. They fly through the air as ordinary people go about their ordinary lives. They float and tumble nearer the bottom of a suburban street, where a door opens.

"I'm heading to the beach!" A tall boy with brown hair calls, dressed in blue swim shorts and a faded white shirt, a bicycle at his side.

"Okay, honey, have a good time!" A voice calls from the door.

The boy closes the door as the leaves tumble past him and the wind makes his shirt and swim shorts ruffle. He turns to the sky and watches the leaves dance away with shining blue eyes and a small smile, before getting on his bike and riding down the street.

"Yahoo!"

The leaves race the boy until they part at the corner of the street, where the bicycle goes on and the wind carries the leaves down the new path. A large boy in a orange headband, yellow shirt and brown cargo pants walks with his hands full, a tray of still steaming cupcakes in his mitten covered hands.

"Easy, eas-whoa!" He ducks as the leaves nearly fly into his face.

He looks down at his cakes and when he sees all is well, breathes a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness."

He looks up and smiles, humming as he continues on his journey.

The leaves dance away from the street, back into the high sky where a particularly strong gust of wind takes them further than they'd gone before, into the more erban town. The leaves pass by a window, where a girl dressed in a green shirt and black leggings sits on her bed with a computer in her lap.

She types furiously, murmuring, "Just a few more modifications-"

"Hurry up, slow coach or we'll miss it!" A voice calls.

The girl growls and closes her laptop, "Fine!"

While shoving it into her backpack, the leaves head towards a green space. They pass many people who are walking and enjoying the high noon sun, but they also pass a boy in a black shirt, black leggings and a red and white jacket resting in the shade. He blinks as the leaves pass and smiles, before going back to his sketchpad.

The leaves finally lose the wind and land on a girl lying in the grass. She blinks, steel grey eyes staring at the leaf perched on her nose and the ones on her black vest. She sits up and brushes the leaves off herself and grabs the water bottle next to her. She tucks her black leggings clade legs under her as she chugs the water down.

She gasps as she stops drinking and whips her forehead, "Better get back to it."

She stands up, popping on her black, narrow, aviator goggles and starts running.

The leaves the girl had brushed off begin to glow white.

At the beach, the boy with the swimming trunks bursts his head out of the water and grins, taking out his small rebreather and basking in the sunlight, "Nothing like the water, the salt and the sand!"

He takes a deep breathe, puts the rebreather back on and then dives back under the water. His shirt gently moves with the waves and his own motions as he dives deeper and deeper, keeping his eyes peeled as he travels further down. He doesn't dare pass the safety of the area where he knows the lifeguards can see and get him, even though he's been swimming since he was a baby. Anything could happen.

As he gets closer, he finds something unusual. A weird glow at the bottom of the sea. He swims closer to it and it fades as he gets closer, but there's something there. It doesn't look like a fish, or anything he's seen before.

He narrows his eyes and when the weird glow completely disappears, there seems to be… some sort of giant clam under the water and…

Is that thing blinking at him?

He nervously blinks back, wondering what the hell this thing is.

Then the shell bursts open and the thing inside the clam screams, "OH MY GOD, ARE YOU A HUMAN!"

The boy damn near screams and shoots off to the surface as fast as he can go. Shoot, shoot, shoot, what the hell is that thing, please don't let it be an invading alien-

He breaks the surface and takes his rebreather out, frantically looking around, "Is it still following me?"

"Yep!"

He screams as he turns around and the weird giant clam looks at him, it's shell open to reveal some kind of green jellyfish inside.

"I need your help, human, please!" The clam looks like it would be pleading if it had hands, "I need to find the DigiDestined!"

He frowns and blinks at it, repeatedly, "Is that some kind of boy band or something, because in that case, I don't know who they are sorry."

The shell frowns deeply and oh God, it's gonna cry, "Then I'll need to find them before, before-"

"Hey, hey, it's okay." He gulps, "Uhh, I'll help you find them before whatever happens."

The clam smiles wide and bright, "You will?!"

The boy nervously smiles back, "Yeah…"

"Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you, human!" The clam jumps around him in a circle, repeating the phrase over and over again.

The boy laughs, "Okay, okay, but can I get your name, first?"

The clam stops in front of him and giggles, "My friends call me Syakomon, but you can call me Syakomon!"

The boy smiles, "I'm Lance, but my friends call me Sharpshooter."

"Ohh, ohh, that's super cool Lance, can you tell me why you're called the Sharpshooter!" Syakomon blushes and excitedly opens and closes her clam.

"Yeah, sure." Lance smiles, "Let's get to finding these… DigiDestined first though and I can tell you on the way. Do you know what they look like?"

"No idea!" Syakomon smiles.

Lance anime sweat drops and falls, "Well, that's going to make things more interesting."

A woman laughs as she finishes eating a cupcake, turning to the gifter, "That was delicious, Hunk, another masterpiece. I'm honoured you decided to let me have the first sample!"

The boy with the cupcakes blushes, "Awww, it was nothing, Mrs. McClain, it's the least I can do."

"Oh my boy, you don't owe us anything, I assure you." A man laughs as he pats Hunk on the head, "You're like the little brother I never had."

"What about Lance?" Hunk asks.

The man laughs, "Yeah, but he's annoying and you're not."

"What was that about me?!"

"Lance!" Hunk and the others call out, smiling as they see him, "Where have you been, man?"

"Ocean, where else?" Lance shrugs, hands behind his back, "Hey, Hunky buddy old pal, can we talk in my room?"

Hunk blinks, "Yeah, sure."

Lance grins, "Great, come on then!"

Hunk smiles and walks next to his friend, waving at the family, "See you guys in a second!"

"Bye, Hunk!" The family call and go back to eating the cupcakes.

Hunk follows Lance down the hall and whispers, "What do you need me to help you sneak up to your room?"

"It's a… long story." Lance chuckles, "But uhh, it's essentially a giant pink clam that can talk. And, uhh, can you call that friend of yours over? The techie girl?"

"Pidge? Yeah, but what for?" Hunk's eyes widen, "Oh God, please don't tell me this clam thing is an alien that's taken over your brain!"

"No, no, nothing like that, I just…" Lance shrugs, "The clam needs to find some people and I offered to help!"

Hunk groans, "This is gonna be fun to explain to Pidge. She's gonna think I'm nuts."

Lance grins, "I thought she liked you because you're nuts, Hunk."

Hunk flushes, "Lance!"

Lance laughs as he runs up the stairs. Hunk groans and pulls out his phone.

"Shiro, stop, please, I'm dying!" The girl with the computer falls to the grass, heaving as she lies on her back.

"Come on Pidge, we've barely started." The girl with the goggles looks down towards her friend, "Besides, jogging is good exercise and I know you can do it."

Pidge huffs, "You have too much faith in me, Shiro."

Shiro chuckles and sits down, "Okay then, let's take a break. You need some water?"

Pidge's eyes light up.

Shiro laughs and passes her the bottle, "Here."

Pidge sits up and starts chugging the water greedily. Shiro smiles and looks up at the sky, frowning. There seems to be puffy white clouds everywhere and growing darker.

"Odd." She opens a zipper in her vest and brings out her phone, "The forecast said we'd have clear skies all weekend."

"Technology is great, but the weather is unpredictable, Shiro." Pidge wipes her mouth, "You never can trust it that much."

Shiro hums, "I guess. I just hope it doesn't get foggy or rainy. That's the last thing we need."

I'M GOING DIGITAL
COMPLETELY DIGITAL

"Oh, my phone!" Pidge pulls out her phone and grins, "Hey, this is Pidge Gunderson, what do you want with me, mortal? Oh, Hunk! Good to hear from you. Why do you need me at your best friend's house?" She narrows her eyes, "He found a what?" She nods a couple of times, making sounds of confirmation, "Sure, I'll be there soon, see ya."

She ends the call and puts the phone back in her shirt pocket.

Shiro smiles, "That mechanic friend of yours needs ya?"

Pidge shrugs on her bag nearby, containing her laptop, "Actually, it's his idiot best friend that needs me. They're not far from the park, but it's gonna be a pain to walk and my family aren't picking me up until I've done my exercise with you."

Shiro stands up too, dusting herself off, "Only one thing for it then."

Pidge blinks at her in confusion.

Shiro kneels before Pidge and grins over her shoulder, "Need a lift?"

Pidge grins and jumps on, "You bet!"

Shiro stands, "Hold on tight!"

Pidge holds on around Shiro's shoulders loosely and wraps her legs around Shiro's waist tightly. Shiro loops her arms under those legs and begins to run.

"Now this is the way to travel!" Pidge laughs.

The boy with the sketchpad is quiet as he puts his art supplies away. He walks away from under his tree and notices something lying in the grass. He jogs over to it and picks it up.

It's the water bottle that girl with the goggles was using.

He looks around and sees her exiting the park at a surprising speed with her friend on her back. Well, he can't just leave this here without it's owner. He swings his sketchpad book over his shoulder and chases after the girls.

The taller girl is surprisingly quick with the other girl and her giant backpack weighing her down. But he manages to keep track. The smaller girl looks behind her and he tries to wave to her, raising the water bottle. She says something to the taller girl, who stops and turns his way. He gives it one last sprint to catch up to her, on the side of a busy road while the traffic lights let the cars roll past.

"Here." He offers the water bottle to the girl with the goggles, "I saw you left it at the park."

She smiles as she takes the water bottle, then passes it to her hitchhiker who presses the traffic light button, "Thanks a lot, it would've been a shame to lose this. What's your name?"

"Keith." He replies as the light turns orange.

She adjusts her friend on her back, "I'm Shiro and this is Pidge."

"Nice to meet you!" Pidge waves as the light turns red.

Keith nods and walks with the two as they walk across the street, "Hi."

Well his work here is done, so he should probably stop botheri-

His eyes widen as an out of control car spirals down the street.

-He grabs Shiro and throws himself, her and Pidge forward as best as he can to get out of the way of the car. It shoots past them while they reach the other side of the street.

Pidge heaves, "MY LIFE FLASHED BEFORE MY EYES!"

Shiro sets Pidge down and kneels next to him, "Keith, are you okay?"

Keith nods, "Yeah, why wouldn't I be?"

Shiro gapes at him, "You risked your life just to get us out of the way of an out of control car. You sure you're okay?"

Keith stands, "I'm fine, really." He offers Shiro his hand, giving her a quick once over; there don't appear to be any bruises or bumps on her, "You okay?"

Shiro nods hesitantly and takes his hand. Keith pulls her up and moves towards Pidge. He offers her his hand as well, but she gets up on her own and gets her backpack on. She shakes his hand instead and hums as she looks around.

"Well, we're nearly at my friend's house and I'm sure Shiro's gonna be guilt ridden unless she at least gets to make you some tea to thank you for saving our asses." Pidge's grip turns surprisingly strong, "So do us a favour and save us the melodramatic search of the city to pay back a debt, okay?"

"Pidge!" Shiro groans.

Well, it couldn't hurt, but, "I didn't really do anything, but, okay."

Pidge laughs and lets go of his hand, "Great, this way!"

She walks off and Keith follows. Shiro walks next to him and smiles sheepishly.

"If you don't want anything, that's fine, Pidge just likes to tease me." Shiro chuckles nervously.

Keith shakes his head, "I don't, but I get the feeling she'd kill me if I tried running away."

Shiro laughs, "She might!"

Keith offers a small smile.

A knock on the door.

"I'll get it!" Lance runs for the door and opens it, "Hello, humble guest, welcome to my abode!"

"Hey, Lance."

Lance's face turns firecracker red as he opens his eyes and looks up and oh God, oh God, oh-

"Takae Shirogane, oh my God!" Lance steps aside, "Welcome in man, it's really cool to meet you, you're so cool, wow!"

Shiro laughs and smiles at him, "You don't have to be so formal, Lance."

"But you're a living legend, Shiro the Hero who always beats the highest levels on Donkey Madness!" Lance gushes and then goes into the kitchen, "Do you want some water, a snack, me to be your servant for life?"

Shiro giggles, "Uhh, no, we're good actually. Pidge said Hunk called her over for something and we decided to come along as well to see if we could be of any help."

Lance blinks, "We?"

Shiro nods and steps to the left, "This is Keith."

Lance's face goes firecracker red once more and he growls, "YOU?!"

Keith, oh so absolutely NOT innocent Keith, blinks, "Me?"

Shiro blinks and turns to Keith, "You know Lance?"

Keith shakes his head, "Never seen him before in my life."

As if he doesn't know, "You're the one who's always beating my high score in Donkey Madness! Well it ends today, we're gonna play it now!"

"Uhh, Lance, I think we have more important things to worry about right now!" Hunk walks down the stairs and enters the hallway, "Like the thing in your room!"

Pidge's eyes sparkle, "Show me, Hunk!"

"I wanna see, too!" Shiro calls.

The two walk towards the stairs and Keith follows them.

Lance snarls, "No way am I letting the enemy in my room, outta the way!"

He shoved Keith into the wall, who grunts as he hits it. Lance snickers and walks past him, head held high.

"Lance!"

Uh oh.

Shiro stands before him, hands on her hips and glaring at him.

Lance blinks innocently, trying to be cute and charming as he shrinks in on himself for protection, "Yes?"

"I don't know what Keith did to make you mad, but you shouldn't be so mean to him." Shiro folds her arms, "He's my friend and so are you, so I'd prefer it if you didn't fight, okay."

Keith? Her friend?!

Lance watches as he stands up and walks in front of him, "Fine."

He'd save putting this jerk in his place when it's just the two of them.

Lance, Shiro and stupid Keith head up the stairs, towards his room at the end of the hallway. Lance goes to step in front of them and grins as he grabs his doorknob.

"What you're about to see is totally top secret and going to utterly blow your mind." Lance opens it, "So be warned!"

Keith and Shiro peer in and gasp. Lance looks in as well and grins.

There's Syakomon, chattering away with Hunk and Pidge like it's perfectly normal. He knew they'd be good friends.

"And you're from an entirely different world?!" Pidge looks like her birthday and Christmas came early.

"Uh-huh!" Syakomon giggles, "I'm from the Digital World, it's a place where Digimon like me used to live in harmony and go about our daily lives in peace!"

"Used to?" Shiro approaches, "What changed?"

Syakomon lowers her head, "The Host Computer, King Drasil, went nuts. We don't know why, but he's been ordering the Royal Knights and their servants to destroy all Digimon. Knightmon and Wisemon, the Digimon who used to protect us, fused together and now attack all of us. We've been keeping our clams shut and heads down to survive, but I don't know how much longer we can take this."

Lance goes to pick her up, "Is that why you needed the help of these DigiDestined people?"

Syakomon nods and looks at everyone in the room sitting in a circle in front of her, "Yeah. The DigiDestined are special humans with the power to save us all. They saved the Digital World before and I hope they can do it again. They have these special powers to give Digimon the energy we need to Digivolve and get strong enough to fight Knightmon and the others. But I only know them from the stories, which didn't care about how they looked or who they were in the human world. So I have no idea how to start looking."

The group hum in thought and sympathy.

Keith stands up, "What did the stories say about the DigiDestined?"

Syakomon hums, "The stories said that each DigiDestined represented a trait and were known for it. It was through these traits that they managed to save us all and-"

The ground shakes.

"What's going on?!" Pidge calls.

Keith runs to the window and gasps, "There's fog in the park and I think there's some kind of giant monster in it."

"What?!" The others call.

Syakomon gasps, "Oh no, it's happening already!"

Lance turns to her, "What is?"

"I don't know why King Drasil is destroying the Digital World, but I thought he was going to invade the human world too eventually!" Syakomon jumps to the window sill, "I need to protect you guys from his soldiers."

She jumps off the window sill.

"Syakomon, no!" Lance looks out the window and starts to climb through it, "Don't worry, we're coming!"

"Uhh, Lance!" Hunk grabs his arm, "I hate to be the voice of reason, as always, but when there's monsters in town, shouldn't you be running away from them?!"

Lance gets off the window sill and pulls his arm free, "But Syakomon's in trouble! If there really is a monster out there destroying the world, then we need to go help her!"

"Uhh, we?" Pidge adjusts her glasses, "I never volunteered for monster fighting."

Keith stands, "I say we go."

Lance snarls, "What the hell, why are you agreeing with me?!"

Keith raises an eyebrow, "Because you're right."

Hunk gapes, "Are you serious, has everybody gone nuts?!"

Pidge huffs, "Not a chance, I say we stay!"

"Go!" Lance stomps towards her.

"Hide!" Hunk whimpers.

"YOU GUYS, STOP!"

The four of them stop bickering among themselves and turn towards Shiro.

"I know this isn't an ideal situation and that it's pretty terrifying." She steps towards them, "But if what Syakomon said is true, then if we don't help her, Earth is going to become a battlefield that none of us can fight in. We're the only ones who know what's going on right now, so it's up to us to decide what to do. I say we go and help her. But we're a team now, so we should decide together."

The four of them look to each other.

Lance walks towards Shiro, "Well I'm going. No way I'm abandoning Syakomon to fight monsters all by herself."

Keith nods and walks over as well.

Hunk groans, "Well I can't let Lance get in trouble without me."

Pidge looks at them and sighs, "I only wanted to stay so I could find a weapon first, like a broom or something."

Shiro smiles, "Let's find something we can use then and go get the monsters."

"Yeah!" The group call.

People scream and flee from the fog in terror while Syakomon hops towards it. She's not the most powerful Digimon but she has to try to stop whoever's in the fog. For Lance and all the other humans here.

She enters the fog and gasps.

A massive red Digimon towers over her, a mouth full of sharp teeth, skin scaly, plates on his back and super big legs and arms with claws at the end. He has green stripes all over his body and blue eyes.

"Oh no, it's Tyrannomom! A champion level, Dinosaur type Digimon, who turns his enemies to ribbons with his Slash Claw attack! This is one dinosaur you'd wish stayed extinct!"

"FIRE BLAST!" Tyrannomon breathes out intense flames and burns the ground. He moves his head towards Syakomon, intending to burn her alive.

"WATER PRESSURE!" Syakomon shoots a jet of high pressure water at the intense flames.

The two forces battle evenly for a second. Then the fire overcomes the water and Syakomon prepares to get burned-

"SYAKOMON!"

Someone picks her up and runs off with her before the fire gets her.

She beams, "Lance!"

Lance grins at her, "You really think we'd let you get fried?"

Syakomon blinks in puzzlement, "We?"

"Lance, watch your footing!"

"Ahh!" Lance jumps over a fallen tree branch just in time and growls, "Shut it, Cooper!"

"That doesn't even sound like my name!" Keith shouts as he runs next to them, "Pass me Syakomon, I'm faster!"

"No way, she's my best clam friend!" Lance huffs, "Go back to throwing rocks at the dinosaur or something!"

"That's no ordinary dinosaur, that's Tyrannomon!" Syakomon pipes up, "You guys shouldn't fight him, it's too dangerous!"

"Don't worry, Sy, we're not gonna fight him." Lance grins, "We've got a plan but we're gonna need your help. Do you mind lending us a shell?"

Syakomon nods, eyes bright with determination, "Sure thing!"

"Great!" Lance hides them behind a tree while Keith goes running somewhere else, "Here's what you gotta do-"

"Take that!" Pidge yells, throwing rocks at the dinosaur that can breath freaking fire, holy hell.

The rocks bounce back from his back, oh no, not good. Shiro launches a stick his way, like a spear throwing competition, but it doesn't do much of anything to damage him when it bounces off his scales. The dinosaur turns around and roars at them.

"Uhh, I think we made him mad!" Pidge prepares to bolt.

"Ya think?!" Shiro calls.

The dinosaur opens his mouth-

"RUN!" Shiro grabs Pidge and runs as fast as she can-

"FIRE BLAST!" The dinosaur breathes fire in their direction.

The girls scream as they narrowly avoid it, falling to the side before they can get burned alive. They take a roll down the hill, Pidge in Shiro's arms as they travel. They stop and groan, untangling themselves and getting up.

"You alright, Pidge?" Shiro asks, standing.

Pidge groans, "Scrapes and bruises at worst."

Shiro nods and looks up where the dinosaur is still breathing fire, "The plan won't work out that well if we can't figure out how to close that mouth of his."

Pidge looks around, humming and blinks, "I think I've got our solution."

Shiro follows her gaze towards, "That… just might work, if we can get this right."

"Guys!"

They turn their heads to see Lance running towards them with Syakomon in his arms.

"Does she know about the plan, Lance?" Shiro asks.

Syakomon nods, "But we need to shut his mouth somehow, or we're toast!"

Pidge grins, "That's just what we were thinking. So, do you think you can help us?"

Syakomon smiles, "Whatever you need me for, you got it."

Lance nods, "I'll help too!"

Shiro smiles, "Okay, while Pidge and I go help Hunk and Keith, you two need to-"

Keith gives a battle cry as he charges towards the dinosaur, knife in hand. He gets him in the leg, making the dinosaur howl in pain, then he snarls.

"DINO KICK!" The dinosaur raises his injured leg and sends Keith flying.

He screams as he travels through the air, preparing for a rough landing-

"KEITH!"

He gasps as he hits something that doesn't feel like concrete and goes rolling with someone. They tumble for a few seconds and then heave for breathe, Keith trying to calm his heart.

"Thanks, Shiro." He wheezes out.

She chuckles below him, gasping for breathe too, "Now we're even."

Keith gives a breathless chuckle, then gets to his feet, pulling Shiro up with him, "The plan?"

Shiro nods, "Syakomon's working on a way to shut him up and Hunk's almost done on his end. We just gotta distract him for a while longer and then be bait."

Keith nods and starts up the hill again, "Come on then."

The dinosaur peaks over the hill and roars, coming down towards them.

Shiro gasps and grabs his arm, "I think we need to go the other way!"

The two weave through the trees while the dinosaur follows them. In his head, Keith swears he hears music starting up.

(Run Around by Jason Radford starts playing)

"COME ON! We need to lead Tyrannomon this way!" Shiro sharply tugs him to the right.

Keith follows her while Tyrannomon roars, "WIND BREAKER!"

He rams the trees as he chases them, turning them to splinters.

Pidge shows up, waving them to the right, "Over here!"

The two follow her as she has them run back towards the field where they first saw Tyrannomon.

Shiro calls out as Tyrannomon roars again, "Who needs to be were?!"

Pidge jumps over a bush, "Everyone's where they need to be, just keep running then we'll spring the trap!"

Keith nods, "I see the others!"

Lance, Hunk and Syakomon wave behind two trees, Lance cupping his hands, "Hurry up, before you're turned into barbeque!"

Tyrannomon roars.

Keith, Shiro and Pidge split up, Keith going to join Hunk and Syakomon while Pidge and Shiro ended up with Lance. They all put their hands on the trees, which had been oddly cut and about to fall over.

"PUSH!" Shiro yelled.

The humans and Syakomon pushed their trees with all their might, forcing them to the ground. Tyrannomon, who was walking too quickly already, ended up yowling as he tripped on them and fell to the ground. Keith grabs the rope they'd found by breaking into one of the maintenance shacks and runs for Tyrannomon.

Tyrannomon roars-

"Put a sock in it, ugly!" Syakomon jumps in front of him, "BLACK PEARL!"

She shoots off several black pearls from her mouth, directly into Tyrannomon's. He coughs and clamps his jaw shut, wincing as he recovers from the attack. Syakomon hops under his jaw next and Keith ducks under Tyrannomon's jaw with a length of the rope.

He comes out the other side and throws it, "SHIRO!"

Shiro, who's on top of Tyrannomon's head, laughs and tosses it back down the other side, "Pidge!"

Pidge grabs it and ducks under Tyrannomon's jaws to hand it off, "Hurry up, I don't think he's gonna stay still for long!"

The three of them work like lightning until finally the whole of the rope has been used and tied as tightly as possible to keep Tyrannomon's jaw closed. Shiro jumps off and the 6 cheer.

"WE DID IT, WE DID IT, WE DID IT!" Lance shouts, tossing Syakomon up and down in the air while the clam giggles.

Hunk sinks to the floor, "OH MY GOSH, I THOUGHT WE WERE GONNA DIE!"

Pidge pats his shoulder, "Well, we lived so now all we gotta do is make it through the walk home."

Shiro breathes a sigh of relief and looks down at Keith, "Thank you so much for helping us today, Keith. We couldn't have done it without you."

Keith shrugs, "No biggy, I'm just glad everyone is safe."

Shiro hums and offers him her hand. Keith blinks and takes it, shaking it strong. Lance groans and looks to Syakomon for comfort, who giggles in his face. Pidge rolls her eyes and Hunk smiles softly.

A moment of quiet.

"Grrrr-"

Shiro cries out as Tyrannomon gets up and she's thrown off balance, falling off his head while screaming. Keith gasps and opens his arms to catch her as Tyrannomon breaks free from the rope around his mouth. He gives a fierce roar that shakes the ground while Keith catches Shiro and the two of them take a tumble as she hits the ground.

Syakomon gasps, "Oh no, it wasn't enough to keep him down!"

Hunk screams as he jumps to his feet and tries to run off, "WE'RE GONNA DIE! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!"

"NO!" Pidge grabs him before he can run off, "We have to do something, or the city will be destroyed!"

"Forget the city!" Lance huffs, pointing towards where Keith and Shiro fell, "The whole world is gonna be destroyed if someone doesn't do something!"

Shiro picks herself up and looks down at Keith, "You okay?"

Keith nods and sits up.

Shiro looks over and gasps, "LANCE, WATCH OUT!"

Lance blinks, then looks up. Tyrannomon is staring him down directly and opens his mouth-

"LANCE!" Syakomon screams.

She begins to glow and out of nowhere, a shell shaped like an egg of blues and white strips of data, cocoon her.

SYAKOMON!

DIGIVOLVE TO….

Her shell clamps shut and drains of it's pink, turning grey and getting bigger. Changing shape into a spiral. At the bottom of the shell, a pink thing emerges with two giant hands, fingers like suckers, and green hair. Blue patches appear on it's shoulders and eyes open to reveal ocean blue. The new Digimon roars.

SHELLMON!

The egg of blues and white strips opens up and the Digimon inside emerges.

Lance screams as Tyrannomon gets closer to eating him-

"AQUA BLAST!"

A massive gush of water knocks Tyrannomon far, far away from Lance, crashing back into the trees. Lance blinks as a shadow falls over him and looks up in shock.

"Syakomon?!" Lance gasps with a grin.

The pink Digimon in a shell smiles, "I'm Shellmon now, Lance."

Lance laughs breathlessly, "Whoever you are, your timing was perfect!"

The two chuckle.

A massive roar interrupts the two as Tyrannomon escapes from the forest. Shellmon narrows her eyes and puts Lance behind her.

"Time to fight this goon and send him back to where he belongs." Shellmon huffs.

"TAKE HIM TO THE JURASSIC, SHELLMON!" Lance cheers.

"Right!" Shellmon charges him, "SLAMMING ATTACK!"

"WILD BUSTER!" Tyrannomon charges her.

The two forces meet in the middle, creating wind that sends the scattered leaves flying everywhere. Occasionally one gains the upper hand, resulting in someone being pushed back and finding their second wind to give as good as they get.

Lance looks around desperately and gasps, "Guys, what's that?!"

The rest of the group turn to where Lance was pointing and there's some sort of white light with black pixels appearing and disappearing at will.

"Looks like some sort of portal." Pidge muses.

Lance snaps his fingers, "I saw Syakomon come out of one of these, everyone get out of the way."

The others jump back from it and Lance calls to her, "SHELLMON, TOSS HIM IN HERE!"

Shellmon grunts and wrestles with Tyrannomon to get him into position, "YOU GOT IT, SHARPSHOOTER!"

Shellmon backs up and shoots out water from her hair, "AQUA BLASTER!"

Tyrannomon roars as he's pushed back from the force of the water and ends up falling right into the portal. Shellmon hums in satisfaction as Tyrannomon disappears and glows gold. She shrinks down and takes back Syakomon's from, clam closed.

Lance runs over to her, "Syakomon!" He picks her up, "Are you okay?"

Syakomon blinks behind her clam and opens it a peak, "I'm alright, Lance, just tired."

Lance smiles, breathing in relief, "Thank the stars."

He puts his forehead to her and the two smile.

A bright sphere of light appears above the two. Lance gasps as he puts Syakomon in the crook of his left arm, reaches out with his right and grabs the light. The light fades in his hand to reveal a device that looks similar to a phone.

With a white base, blue grips, it has a black antenna on the top left. At the top centre of the device is a square shaped grey screen with a black circle around it and two arrow shaped buttons. Below the screen is a little red button with a white circle inside it, a line and a white dot on top of it. Below the red button is a ring shaped button with two small arrows pointing directly to the left and right from each other.

"What is it?" Lance asks as he holds it closer to his face, blinking in confusion, "Can I get Donkey Madness on this thing?"

"It's a D-3!" Syakomon gasps, her shell snapping open in shock, "It's the device a DigiDestined uses to Digivolve their partners to the next level!"

"Really?!" Lance looks down at her, "Then, that means…"

Syakomon's eyes well up with tears, "I found the DigiDestined! The Digital World is saved!"

The two laugh and hug each other.

"Syakomon, I couldn't have a better Digimon partner in the whole world, no the whole two worlds!" Lance laughs.

Syakomon sobs, "Me too, Lance, you're the bestest human I've ever met, thank you!"

Shiro and Pidge smile softly while Hunk starts crying and Keith shrugs.

"Well, I suppose, I better get world saving with my best clam bud, huh?" Lance smiles as he looks at Syakomon, "Let's hit the Digital World and show 'em something they've never seen before!"

"Yeah!" Syakomon cheers.

Hunk wipes his eyes, "Well, if you're going, I'm going too. Can't let you get in trouble without me."

"Hey, hey, I wanna go to the Digital World, too!" Pidge calls, "If Syakomon is just a taste of it, I want the whole buffet!"

Shiro blinks at her, "Well I can't let you guys go in there alone."

The 5 of them look to Keith, who shrugs, "What's the point of getting off this crazy train now? May as well hit the rest of the tracks."

Syakomon's eyes fill with stars, "Then it looks like the DigiDestined will have lots of help to protect our world!"

Lance smirks, "Let's go then!"

The 5 humans walk towards the portal, with Syakomon in Lance's arms. As they get closer, they glow gold and disappear. The portal disappears as well, along with the fog. All that is left is the destruction of the battle.

"Well that went perfectly, wonder what's next on this so called crazy train. To find out, tune into the next Digimon: Digital Monsters!"
