He was stunned by this, "we could…return?"
"Yes, you could return, your were chosen, and you can repair your mistakes"
He considered this, "I think…we would like to return, and undo the damage caused"
"A good decision Waykeeper, now, I will send you to your partner. Good luck…Razormon"
Razormon shuddered as he was disassembled into his basic data, feeling the darkness that had been powering both him and Alex washing away, replaced by a much different power, a lighter, more holy power, like a cleansing light the power shifted and the data of Razormon sped away towards his partner.

Alex was standing in nothingness, an endless, white nothing that stretched on forever, and he was a black blot in the pure white. He fell to his knees, ashamed, how could he think he could court the powers of darkness without falling, just as Nick had, he had been trapped by the same dark power as his friend and it had been his downfall.
He felt a presence, someone walking towards him, they stopped right behind his kneeling form, and seemed to crouch down as well, slipping arms around him, a head was laid on his back and he felt something within him stir, he could feel a bright, light, power begin to feel him, washing the taint of darkness from his body and soul.
"He is forgiving" came the voice of the person behind and around him, a familiar voice, "And you have been given a second chance, an opportunity to redeem yourself"
The person stood, letting Alex get up, the holy power washing through and around him, his black clothes fading out, replaced by white; white jeans with a pair of white boots, a white vest top with the three pointed star symbol on it, white fingerless gloves appeared on his hands, and his bandana was wiped clear, the black being replaced by pure white, the three pointed star still prominent. His tattoo also changed, morphing from the eight pointed star to a single blade, with the three pointed star on it.
He opened his eyes and breathed out, not knowing he had been holding his breath, or had his eyes closed, and turned to face the person behind him, his heart leaping with the thought of whom it was.
The figure was a teenage girl, his own age, dressed in pale green, pale green trousers were beneath an ankle length, square cut, pale green and gold patterned dress, cut all the way up the sides to her hips and going over one shoulder, showing the green t-shirt beneath it. Her hair was in a long ponytail that fell to her waist and her deep green eyes looked into Alex's own.
"Hi Alex, good to see you after so long, though I wish the circumstances were better" she said, her light voice clear in the white nothing surrounding them.
"Link. Link!" Alex said, dashing over to her and taking her into his arms, holding her tight, "I thought I would never see you again, I've missed you so much"
Link hugged him back, "I know, I know, I've been watching you though, but I couldn't help you, and I wanted to help so much" she told him, happy to finally have him in her arms again,
"Where's Tornadomon?" Alex asked, Link's digimon had been deleted before her and should be around here somewhere,
"She's not here, she was gone from here before I arrived, she was pulled back and reconfigured…into a GranYamimon, who then Digivolved permanently" she told him, tears in her eyes,
Alex was puzzled for a minute, trying to catalogue all the Yamimon digivolutions, his face fell, "Oh…oh no, not him, oh gods no not him", Link nodded, "I promise Link, I will free her, I will destroy the shell she is trapped within and free her"
As they stood there, embracing, a whirl of data covered them, the twinkling bits forming a shape beside the two, a familiar shape,
"Razor" said Alex, a smile coming to his face as his friend materialized before him,
He had changed, his dark colour scheme had been replaced by a snowy white and light grey one, the three pointed star stayed however, it was his symbol after all.
"Greetings Alex, I see you have been cleansed also" he said, the dark power had needed too much concentration to hold at bay, hence his minimal speech in his dark form.
"Razor…I'm sorry, I 'm sorry I got you caught in darkness' trap as well, I don't deserve to be your partner" Alex said sadly,
Razormon shook his head, walking towards Alex and holding out one clawed hand, "We are destined partners, but more than that, we are friends, I forgive you Alex, and I wish to continue fighting by your side"
The two of them shook hands…sort of, and Link began to speak,
"There is a way out of this realm" she told them, "The gatekeeper blocks the doorway, but get past him and you can return to the land of the living" she began to fade,
"Link. Goodbye"
"It resides that way" she said, pointing in a direction as she faded away completely, "I will be watching Alex, good luck…I love you"
Alex pressed a hand to his heart, "I love you too Link…"
"I suggest we get moving Alex, we have much to do" Suggested Razormon
Alex nodded and the two walked in the direction Link had indicated, determined to fix the problems they had caused.
