Chapter 4

Puppymon's new look

Everyone needed to keep moving, who was to say what was to happen next? Yumi, Victoria, Kiva, Renamon and Puppymon were back sitting on top of the cliff overlooking the sea. The others stood behind the girls staring at the sea as well. Quietness over took the group.

'Our searching have taken us half way over this island, no one else have been around except for us. Now that Renamon has been able to digivolve to her next form I know that we can take on any digimon with no worry,' Victoria thought to herself as she embraced a cool breeze that fluttered from the sea.

"Do you think that the other digimon will be able to take on their next forms too?" Kisho asked.

Victoria turned her head to see the little boy standing right behind her with Labramon standing next to him. She could see that he was eager to see his digimon's next form.

"Yeah, probably, I don't see why it wouldn't," Victoria replied with a shrug as she looked back at the water.

Before she could be swept into the silence again a roar sounded behind them causing the six whom were standing to gasp and turn around to see a large grey monster crash through a wall of rock. It looked like a weirdly formed Rhino.

"What kind of digimon is that?" Robert asked.

"It's called a Monochromon. Don't worry about him, he's a laid back digimon. Although it is wise to be a bit cautious with a Monochromon. They tend to get a bit miffed when they're hungry," Tentomon explained.

"Reminds me of one of our Rhino's at home, among other territory type creatures," Yumi replied now standing up to take a look at the digimon.

"Seems to be hungry to me, because he looks really mad!" Kisho said.

"I think he wants to eat us!" Tora said holding on to Lalamon scared.

Victoria and Kiva joined Yumi's side looking at the Monochromon. Puppymon sniffed the air curiously, there was something else there that shouldn't belong. Another loud roar sounded behind them. The sound made Puppymon and Labramon to growl furiously at the new creature.

"Great, now there's two of them! How did we get so lucky with this?" Victoria asked irritated.

The nine kids ran behind a nearby boulder to escape the deadly attacks by the Monochromon's. Both charged at one another locking their horns together and smashed rocks along the way. Yumi, Victoria and Kiva stared wide-eyed at the scene, the three knew that if they stayed in the area any longer they could have been killed.

"Understandable that they are fighting, but what in the world are they fighting over?" asked Yumi.

"Territory," replied Renamon.

"You know what they can have it because we don't want to get caught in the middle of their fight," Yukito said.

The three chaos girls were the first ones to take off into the forest followed closely by Yukito holding Penguinmon and the others.

"There is definitely no need for us to just hang around," James said.

Behind them the Monochromon continued their brutal fighting as the group got further and further away from them. Kisho didn't pay attention to where his footing was going to land causing him to trip on the ground thanks to a twig that rested on the ground. Kisho let out a small cry of pain as he landed on his knees. Labramon nudged Kisho's arm to make sure that he was all right. Mark ran to his brother's side helping him to his feet. Kisho brushed off the dirt on his pants. Everyone was far ahead of him except for his brother. Yumi and James were the only ones to stick behind to make sure that Kisho was all right.

"Come on Kisho, we need to keep up," Mark said urging his brother forward.

"Hurry up you two, you don't want to be left behind do you?" Yumi called turning around.

"We're coming," Kisho called running toward James and Yumi.

As the sun began to set, the children and their digimon walked through a thick forest with road signs posted at odd angles throughout the underbrush. The chaos girls were up ahead staring at the oddness that was the forest. Kiva and Puppymon were in a deep conversation via their minds. Yumi and Victoria knew what was going on and refused to interfere with their conversation.

"How much exercise does one need in one day?" asked Yukito sighing as he slowed down his pace as he stretched his arms.

"Well, if we can find a proper place to rest we will, until then we have to keep moving," James said walking past him.

"I don't care how much soccer I play, this is killing my feet," moaned Tora stopping at a tree to move her ankles in small circular motion. She rested her back against the tree itself as she let out a sigh.

"You should take off your shoes and socks, maybe you'll feel better Tora," Bearmon offered.

Tora looked down at the bear digimon her eyebrow raised questioning. "As much as you might be right, I don't wish to get my feet dirty."

"It appears that our light source will no longer be with us any more," Robert informed everyone.

Up ahead Yumi, Victoria and Kiva let out a sigh as they rested upon a tree waiting for the others. It was no longer a rush to get somewhere, it was official they weren't going to be able to find anyone else. Nighttime was more of their wake up call then anything else. Renamon looked down at Victoria to see her close to sleep.

"We need to find a place soon, I don't think Yumi, Victoria or Kiva are going to be able to keep their eyes open any longer," called Renamon to the others who finally got close enough to the chaos triplets.

"This whole island is strange. Whose to say what's going to come at night," Robert said answering a question.

"Things that go bump in the night," answered a tired Victoria who was now on Renamon's back. Her eyes were barely open.

"I smell water. Stay here, I'm going to check it out," Puppymon said taking off ahead of the group to take a look to see what was to be expected.

"I thought so. I was right, there's a lake up ahead, fresh, clean water, and obviously abundant of a fish too," Puppymon said returning to the group. "It's a perfect campsite."

"Oh thank the gods," Yumi said raising her head a tiny bit.

"Yes, now I can soak my feet," Tora cheered finally taking off her shoes and socks.

"Knew that wasn't going to last," Yumi said.

"Yay we can go swimming," Penguinmon said.

The group made their way toward the location of the water that Puppymon saw. On Puppymon's back lay a tired Kiva. She needed a massive wake up call, and it didn't matter what the wake up call was. Yumi dragged her feet behind Renamon and beside Puppymon. The others seemed to be more on the wake side, which was surprising after all the complaining they did.

The shore came to view in matter of minutes. It looked amazing, this was exactly what the group needed.

"It's definitely going to be safe to rest here for the night," Renamon said kneeling to slide Victoria off her back who landed on her feet staring in wonder. She saw the water and was tempted to dive in hoping the cold water would wake her for the next little while.

"Camping, yay," Yumi sarcastically said sitting at the edge of the water staring at her reflection.

"This is perfect, camping under the stars is the best way to spend the night," Tora said sitting next to Yumi soaking her feet. Yumi turned her head slightly to stare at Tora in a way to say "what makes you think you can sit beside me?" But she never voiced it, she didn't want to deal with anything right now.

Victoria sat on Yumi's other side splashing the cold water on her face. She looked a little more wide awake, mind that some of her foundation did run, but it wasn't bothering her.

Hanging with the other group, Kiva sat on the ground leaning against Puppymon, her eyes still blurring over with sleep. She wasn't totally comprehending what was being said or who was saying it. Finding her strength, Kiva stood up along with Puppymon and made her way into a forest to get away from everyone. She wanted to tell Yumi and Victoria where she was going, but she wanted to be on her own to let out her anger that seemed to be bottling up inside of her

Back at the small campsite, everyone took on a role to help get dinner put together. Robert and Kisho were sitting at the shore, Robert held on to a makeshift fishing pole waiting for a bite. Further up on the shore, James, Mark and Yukito were standing around a small circle of rocks and kindling but with no fire. Victoria and Yumi were wondering the forest in the opposite direction that Kiva went. Both girls were in search for any sign of fruit, anything that could be helpful. Tora and Lalamon were looking for mushrooms down another path.

At the shore where Robert and Kisho sat, Penguinmon swam in the water carefree just enjoying the water. He was making his way toward Robert and Kisho, a fish was in his mouth already.

"Penguinmon, you have got to stop playing in the water, this is getting annoying with you either scaring away the fish or warning them."

On the shore, Tentomon, Bearmon, Gaomon, and Labramon were hanging around a tree collecting fruit. Tentomon had some food in his claws already eating some of the fruit.

"This is delicious," Tentomon said happily.

Labramon stared at the tree branch concentrating upon the fruit. He looked like if he concentrated hard enough the fruit would move on their own. He sent out his retriever bark at a bunch of bananas knocking them off the tree where Bearmon jumped into the air slicing the bananas that landed in a pile on top of some leaves that were laid out to catch the fruit. Tentomon rose up to a higher branch where some apples were waiting to be picked.

In the forest, Victoria and Yumi were picking berries from a bush and placing them in a piece of clothing that was used for collecting. Renamon kept jumping from branch to branch searching for more fruit that couldn't be seen by the naked eye.

"Hey, have you seen Kiva?" Yumi finally asked looking around.

"No, I haven't seen her since we first arrived at the spot," admitted Victoria looking around the forest.

"Girls, I see her. We'll drop off the food and make our way in the other direction," Renamon said landing on her feet beside the girls seconds later.

"Wonder what's going through her mind?" pondered Yumi.

Down the opposite side of the group Kiva kept making her way through the forest until she came up to a rock where she could sit and think things through. Puppymon neither asked what was wrong or questioned where they were going. He knew that something was on her mind and she was yearning to get it out.

Finally able to sit on the rock, Puppymon sat in front of her like any dog would waiting for a treat. Kiva didn't say anything to him just yet, only stared into space for the longest time. Puppymon could sense that she was finally opening up to him. Hurt could be sensed within her, he never felt this much from her when he first met her. He considered the fact that she was waiting until the right moment.

'Puppymon I want you to promise me something,' Kiva thought staring into his eyes.

"Anything Kiva."

'I never told my friends this, even till this day none of them know. I want to tell Yumi and Victoria but I don't want to worry them.'

"Kiva come on, you can tell me. I can already feel the hurt within you, but I don't want to pry any further if you are willing to tell me."

'Before coming here, mom and I would fight constantly. Well she would fight with me, I try to ignore it because she's not really right in the head, but I shouldn't allow that to be an excuse. She would abuse me, hit me, strike me. I still carry the scars with me. It never got like this when I was younger, I had my father at least who was at my side. But he passed away three years ago and my mom's mental health turned for the worse. You have no idea how bad I want to get out of that hell hole, but I don't want to leave her, just not let,' Kiva explained rolling up her sleeves to reveal marks on her arms caused by her mother.

"Why haven't you ever told anyone?" Puppymon asked lifting himself up on his hind legs to view the scars more carefully.

'I don't want them to worry about me. This isn't any of their concern just mine. Puppymon please don't tell anyone,' Kiva pleaded.

"I won't, I'm glad that you can trust me," Puppymon said jumping into her lap and curling up.

'Thank you Puppymon.'

"What else is on your mind?"

'When I was younger I never liked being touched, hugged or cuddled, and when I was at the age where most children would be talking I never spoke a word and no one understood why.'

"You truly are a complex person aren't you?"

'That's just who I am. Yumi and Victoria know to about me not talking which is all good. They also know that I write down all my frustrations, and anger down.'

Both sat on the rock for another five minutes when Yumi, Victoria and Renamon appeared through the forest to the small clearing where Kiva sat petting Puppymon.

"Kiva, you okay?" Yumi asked kneeling in front of Kiva,

"She's fine, she just wanted to get something off her chest," replied Puppymon.

"You are just the best," Yumi said to Puppymon.

The chaos triplets sat in silence for the longest time listening to all the weird sounds of the forest in the digital world. They could hear the voices of the others kids wondering where they could have gotten to.

"Do we have to return to the group, I don't want to deal with everyone else, this is why I didn't want to go to summer camp in the first place," Victoria said.

"Yeah, as much as I don't want to deal with them any more than you do, I don't want to deal with a search party," Yumi said forcing herself to her feet.

"I swear I will leave if they piss me off."

"There isn't much to piss you off."

'She's not the only one,' thought Kiva petting Puppymon's head.

"Kiva agrees with you on that."

Back at the site James continued to attempt lighting the fire. Mark and Yukito continued to stand around waiting somewhat patient with James' failed attempts.

"Do you guys need any help with that?" Renamon asked watching James continue to like the kindling.

"What did you…"

Renamon concentrated on her power and struck the fire pit with her paw, instantly a fire came to life on the kindling. Renamon looked pleased with herself.

"And this is why you always carry matches or lighters," Yumi said sitting in front of the fire her hands outstretched feeling the warmth on her hands.

"Thanks Renamon," James said. Renamon didn't say anything to them, she just sat cross legged beside Yumi ready to go into a meditative state.

Soon Kisho and Robert returned to the pit carrying a large pile of fish on a bunch of branches. This was definitely going to be a great meal, fruit and fish always a best choice.

"Check out this guys," Kisho said happily showing everyone the collection of fish. There was enough there to feed the group twice.

"I can't believe how much fish we actually caught," Robert said.

"Way to go Robert, let's dig in."

James takes his fish over to the fire to cook it. Yumi, Victoria and Kiva decided to take their share of fish, although they could have lasted another little while with no food.

"Thanks little man," Mark said to his brother taking a fish on a stick before walking over to the first. James is gingerly holding a fish by the tail above the flame. It was a no brainer that he was nervous about getting close to the flame.

"This is why a microwave would come in hand," James said.

"Me too, because dude, you are about to lose you fingers if you keep that up. Why don't you use a stick. It'll be better than loosing your digits."

Yumi, Victoria and Kiva sat by the fire their fish on long sticks. It felt like they were cooking marshmallows. Renamon merely ate her fish raw, she didn't care for a cooked fish. Puppymon did the same, like a wolf he put one of his paw's over top of the fish while he tore into it.

After a while everyone rejoined the circle around the fire eating fish and fruit, Yumi, Victoria and Kiva were satisfied with their consumption of food. Everyone else seemed to be just as appreciated of the food.

"This is so delicious," Lalamon said.

"Can't argue with that," Tora replied.

"Can we have seconds?" Kisho asked smiling, Labramon sat next to Kisho his tail wagging side to side.

Everyone laughed at Kisho's eagerness. It was good to have a laugh once in awhile. The only ones not to be laughing were Yumi, Victoria and Kiva who were now sitting cross legged along with Renamon who were all deep in meditation. Puppymon lay beside Kiva close to exhaustion.

After an hour or so, Labramon let out a yawn as he lay upon the ground next to Kisho.

"Aw, Labramon is tired," Kisho said feeling the exhaustion build up inside of him.

Lalamon could no longer keep her eyes open any more and fell asleep next to Penguinmon who was already out cold. James let out a yawn upon looking at the sleeping digimon.

"I'm getting extremely tired myself," James admitted stretching his arms high into the air.

"We can't all go to sleep, we should take turns standing guard encase of an attack," Yukito said.

"Who wants to go first?" Robert asked.

"Why not each of us take turns standing guard for an hour?" suggested Tora.

"That sounds great, but not Kisho," Mark said.

"Mark why not, I can stand guard too," Kisho replied as a yawn took over.

"Because of that, you are far too young for this, you need your sleep. Your close to falling asleep as it is."

"We'll stand guard if that means everyone will stop arguing," Yumi said opening her eyes and glaring up at the others.

"Well at least that's taken care of, but who will take over for the last little while?" James asked.

"Don't worry about it, we can handle it."

"Brr. It is getting cold out, I knew I should have brought a blanket with me," Tora said rubbing her arms.

"Maybe you want to keep your eyes open Renamon, Tora might sneak up on you and steal your fur," James teased grabbing Renamon's tail. Her eyes flashed open turning to face James, anger registering in her eyes.

"Let the tail go!" Renamon seethed.

"James stop being such a child!" Mark said.

"Ooh! What's bugging you? She's not your digimon."

"No, she's not. How would you like it if someone did that to Bearmon?" Mark responded pushing James in the shoulder.

"You can't tell me what to do!" James shot back angrily.

Mark now grabbed hold of James shirt and brought him closer to him. James did the exact same thing. Both were on the verge of getting into a fight.

"Knock it off right now!" shouted Kisho.

"You two are acting like a bunch of two year olds. Mark I thank you for standing up for Renamon, but I ask that you don't, James has already gotten a warning from her!" Victoria threatened standing up pulling the two apart. Mark and James let out a huff before turning their backs on each other.

"There, that's better. Get some shut eye, we'll keep a look out," Victoria said returning back to her meditative position.

Without any more arguments, everyone collapsed on to the ground next to their digimon. Kisho wrapped his arm around Labramon as he got comfortable on the ground. Labramon sensed his presence next to him and moved closer to Kisho to keep him warm. James on the other side of the fire curling up with Bearmon to get the extra warmth. Tora was lying close to where Kisho lay, curling up into a ball with Lalamon resting on top of her knees.

Yukito laid on his back with Penguinmon standing next to him sleeping. Mark leaned against a tree away from the fire falling asleep with Gaomon sitting next to him already dozing off. Robert on the other hand lay by the water with a sleeping Tentomon. He could sleep just yet, he wanted to stare up at the stars for hours on end to figure out the constellations.

As for the chaos triplets, they took up their watch on a high rock away from the fire and the water. The chaos triplets continued to sit in their meditative position for hours. Renamon had already gotten out of her state at just sat on the rock over looking everything. She could see how peaceful everyone was sleeping. Looking back at her own partner she could see how serene she seemed when she got into her own state of mine. Something that none of the others would never see. Next to Victoria was Yumi who was in between a calm state and an unsettling state. Renamon had yet to learn what was bothering her partner's friend. There seemed to be so much pain within her that needed to come out and it was more than just the problem of finding her own digimon.

On the other hand Kiva sat next to both girls completing their circle, her expression as ever was unreadable, there was so much that no one could read from her. Renamon was sure that Puppymon knew what was bothering his partner.

Standing up Renamon jumped up to the ground below to take a walk just to keep her awake for the next little while. She knew that Victoria, Yumi and Kiva were safe on top of the rock, besides she could easily return to her side in a second. She returned to the fire where the others remained asleep. She sat down on the ground staring at the flames. The embers were slowly starting to die down. Picking up a stick Renamon shifted some of the kindling to keep the embers alive. A burning piece of wood popped from the fire and flew up and landed a few feet away narrowly missing Kisho and Labramon. The piece of burning wood landed on a flat red area of the beach that didn't seem to belong. Renamon got to her feet staring at it in wonder as it started to move causing the ground to shake causing her to fall back to the ground.

"What the?" Renamon asked confused.

A wave began to form in the sea causing Renamon to look out into the sea to see a huge yellow head of a green sea monster emerge from the waves. Renamon got on one knee preparing to lunge at the mysterious creature. The monster towered over the beach growling at her. This brings Victoria, Yumi, and Kiva out of their meditation and Puppymon out of his sleep. Robert and Tentomon let out a scream of fear seeing the giant sea creature.

It didn't take long before everyone else woke up scared to see the large creature. Tora grabbed hold of Lalamon and moved backwards bumping into Kisho who was hugging Labramon in fear. Mark opened his eyes in alarm, adrenaline pumped through his veins as he ran toward his brother.

"What is that creature?" Tora asked, now sitting next to Kisho. She wrapped her arm around him to protect him.

"That's Seadramon!" Lalamon said.

"Where's he taking us?" Kisho asked scared, he buried his head into Tora's arm.

Seadramon raced through the water taking the land with it along with James, Bearmon, who were now awake and on their feet ready to attack the creature and the others. Yumi, Victoria and Kiva held on to the rock with dear life fearing that they would fall to the ground.

"This is going to be a bumpy ride," Gaomon called out.

"He's pulling up along by his tail. I don't think he realized we're here," Robert said when he was with the group again.

"He's a bit dense, so there might be a chance that we're here. As long as he doesn't see us we should be fine."

As Tentomon was talking, Renamon could sense the fear of the girls causing her to run to their rescue and leave the sea dragon alone. Seadramon pulled out his tail that was burned by the burning wood away from the island, he used his tail whipping Renamon off her feet as she got closer to the rock.

"Renamon!" screamed Victoria finally letting go of the rock.

"No, I think he does," Renamon groaned struggling to get to her feet with the help of Victoria. "I knew there was something strange about the red patch on the ground."

Using its tail once again, it knocked Renamon, Victoria off their feet, and Yumi Kiva and Puppymon off the rock sending them flying to the ground.

"He's coming back, he doesn't look too happy though," James said now getting to his feet.

Seadramon disappeared from sight and swam under the water, silence filled the group for a moment until another shock came over the island.

"He's moving the island make to the shore!" yelled Renamon bracing herself for the impact.

"We're going to crash!" Yukito shouted thinking that this was going to be the end.

As everyone panicked about the impact, the land stopped in the middle of the water, nothing moved, Seadramon didn't seem to be there any more.

"Great, he left us right in the middle of the bloody lake," Yumi moaned standing up.

"You don't think we could trick him into taking us back is there?" Robert asked looking around.

"Brace yourselves, he's coming back!" James screamed.

"Come on, let's send him back to the fishes!" shouted Bearmon. Everyone except for Renamon and Puppymon nodded their heads preparing for a fight.

"Lala screw!" Lalamon screamed spinning the leaf atop of her head as she flew toward Seadramon hoping to do some damage.

"Retriever bark!"

Neither attack seemed to do any damage to the giant sea creature. Bearmon, Gaomon, Tentomon and Penguinmon prepared to send their attacks.

"Bear roll!" Bearmon shouted aiming toward the side of Seadramon.

Tentomon flew up to get a better spot for attack. "Super shocker!"

"Speed bash!"

"Ice Prism!"

Seadramon roared in anger, not that the attacks were causing this, we was annoyed by the little digimon's useless attacks.

"Renamon, go!" Victoria shouted seeing her digimon ran toward the sea creature with all her might.

'Puppymon they need your help!' Kiva thought seeing her digimon take off to meet Renamon.

"Power Paw!"

"Puppy claw!"

Their attacks were a little more affective, but it still didn't pose any problems to Seadramon. Victoria was getting worried that Seadramon was going to do more damage to Renamon and Puppymon. Kiva was at her side, her face was blank as normal, but her mind was spinning.

"Renamon, you need to digivolves!" Victoria screamed as Seadramon attacked again.

"I've been trying to Victoria, but I can't seem to find it in me to go the next form!"

"Renamon you have to!"

"I don't think my body has recovered from the last fight!" Renamon called back trying to hold off Seadramon while Puppymon went for the attack.

Kiva ran past Victoria heading toward the digimon hoping to protect them, or at least Puppymon. Puppymon and Renamon didn't see Kiva coming their way, but Seadramon did. Using his tail he slapped Kiva out of the way causing her to fall into the water. She emerged seconds later thrashing about trying to keep above the water.

"Kiva!" yelled Puppymon worried.

Kiva tried to keep her head above the water, she forced her legs to kick to keep her afloat. Seadramon took advantage of this. He looked down at Kiva growling. Kiva merely stared at him trying to force him to come after her.

"Puppy bite!" Puppymon shouted as he bit down on Seadramon's neck.

Seadramon let out a loud deafening roar and rearing back in pain. Using his tail he flicked Renamon and Puppymon off him. Both digimon flew out of the water and landing on the ground in a sickening thud.

"Renamon, are you all right?" Victoria yelled running toward her.

"Don't worry about us, get Kiva!" Puppymon commanded weakly getting to his feet.

Victoria looked up to see Kiva still thrashing about not being able to keep afloat. Yumi saw this as well and ran toward the shore. Yumi and the others didn't realize how quickly it all happened. Seadramon knocked Kiva further into the water before bringing her back up his tail wrapped around her body in a tight crushing grip.

"He might be a bubble brain but once he finds his prey, he won't let go!" Tentomon explained.

"Something that we didn't need to hear!" Yumi shouted back to Tentomon as she watched in horror as her friend struggled within the creatures grip.

"Someone has to do something.

'Puppymon!' shouted Kiva in her mind.

"Puppymon digivolve to…Wolfmon!"

Puppymon jumped into the air changing from his black puppy fur with silver paws and half black half silver half white tail. To being a fully black fur with white and silver spiral marks on his back, neck, face, around his eyes, paws, legs, on his stomach and tail. Wolfmon's tail is long like a wolf's but also has a devil point at the end. He has white fangs two of his canines poke out of the sides of his mouth. Wolfmon's eyes are now solely black with a white and silver spiral in the middle of his eyes. His ears are pointed and pierced with two silver earrings on the tips of ears. His ears are black, with white and silver spirals on them. Wolfmon's claws are silver and tipped white.

Wolfmon snarled at Seadramon threateningly as he jumped up slashing the tail freeing Kiva from Seadramon's grip. Kiva falls back in the water where she still forces herself to stay afloat. Yumi dived into the water to rescue her friend. Helping her back to the island both watch Wolfmon fight Seadramon tooth and claw. Wolfmon grabs hold of Seadramon by the neck refusing to let go, but Seadramon flicked him off with a whip of his tail, pushing him beneath the water.

'No!' screamed Kiva in her mind watching Seadramon dive in after Wolfmon. She struggled against Yumi's grip. As much as Yumi knew that Kiva didn't like to be touch, she didn't want her to go back into the water.

"Kiva, calm down, there's nothing that we can do right now."

Kiva turned her head to look her friend in the eyes. Yumi had a determined look that everything was going to be all right.

As Kiva looked back to the water, Wolfmon rose up followed by Seadramon. Wolfmon spun around smacking Seadramon in the face with his tail. This caused the larger digimon to rear back in pain.

"Tentomon, who is that?" called Yumi.

"That's Wolfmon, he's determined to get stronger now matter what the cost is. .When he's really angry, his eyes will turn blood red making it difficult to tell friend from foe. Just don't call him Fakemon, you can send him into a rage of uncontrolled anger."

"That's really good to know," Yumi said watching the fight continue.

Seadramon opened its mouth sending out a blast of freezing air at Wolfmon. The water started to freeze causing Wolfmon to be covered as well. Kiva went into shock, she didn't like seeing her digimon be vulnerable.

"Seadramon's using his lethal Ice Blast!" informed Tentomon.

"Wolf blast!" A silvery white fire flame came out of this mouth aiming toward Seadramon. The attack struck him in the head burning him. Seadramon falls backward into the lake defeated. The kids on the shore excluding Yumi, Victoria and Kiva cheered. Yumi and Kiva stood up running toward the dedigivolved form of Puppymon. Puppymon was lying the on the island breathing heavily.

'Puppymon, are you all right?' Kiva asked stroking his fur.

"Yeah, just great, I'm glad to see you okay," Puppymon said lifting his head.

'You digivolved into Wolfmon just in time, thank you.'

"How are we suppose to get back now?" Robert asked.

"Just trust me," Penguinmon said diving into the water. When he resurfaced a school of fish surrounded him. "There we go, best way to get back."

The island slowly made its way back to the main shoreline. The others enjoyed the ride all the way back. Kiva and Puppymon were sitting close to the edge staring at the water. Kiva was happy that Puppymon was safe and could now digivolve into the next level just like Renamon.

"You know what, I'm starting to see a pattern here. This time, only Puppymon could digivolve," Robert said.

"I agree with you Robert. Renamon was the only one who could do it before," Tora said.

Victoria who was back to sitting on the rock meditating over heard the conversation as she recalled when Renamon digivolved into Kyubimon while she was wrapped in a painful grip by Shellmon.

"Renamon, please help me!" Victoria cried out in pain.

"Victoria!" screamed Renamon struggling underneath the pressure of Shellmon's foot.

"Digivolve!"

Victoria's digivice started to glow as Renamon digivolved into Kyubimon defeating Shellmon.

"You're right. It's all beginning to make sense. Renamon was able to digivolve when Victoria was in danger," James said.

"That has to be the answer. Our digimon digivolve when we're in trouble," Yukito said.

"That has to be it."

Everyone went quiet as sleep over took them once again. Puppymon and Kiva remained when they were falling asleep on the ground. Yumi crashed by the fire feeling the warmth on her skin.
