Chapter 11: Sincerety

[Drake]

The punch Latios made me throw hurt, a lot, but I guess I diserved at least a little bit of it. Things had calmed down in the past hour of Dante's return with Matt and Latios, so much so in fact, Dante was sleeping on the couch without a problem in the world while Dorumon played tag with Punimon, "So, what will he Digivolve into?" I asked Benjamin.

"Impossible to say, he could turn into a lot of things, unlike your Pokemon, Digimon don't usually have linear evolution paths, but instead depend on several different factors to determine their Digivolution route."

I nodded in understanding, "So, just like some Pokemon, except more complex," it was funny to think that it was impossible to tell what my partner would be, but I guess it just made things more interesting. I turned to Dorumon who was playing with the others, except Agumon and Gabumon who were discussing what to do next, "So, they act just like Pokemon."

"Well of course, all Digimon are living creatures who feel emotions and pain just as humans and Pokemon do," Benjamin replied. Chloe walked in the room and called Floramon over to her.

I noticed them move toward the door, "Hey, where you two off to?"

"Oh, we're just going to go for a walk, don't worry we'll be back before Dante wakes up," Chloe smiled.

I chuckled, "That's a big time window, well we'll see you two," Chloe nodded and headed out the door with Floramon in toe. I wondered where they were going, but I didn't give it much thought.

[Chloe]

"Where we going, Chloe?" Floramon asked me in confusion.

I looked down at her and grinned, "We're going to catch Latias," that's when I'm nudged on the shoulder.

"Excuse me, but who are you going to catch?" a voice behind me asked.

I didn't even give thought to who it was, "Latias, I'm sure you know who that is."

"Well of course I do, I am her after all," the voice giggled as I turned around and saw the dragon looked like Latios except smaller and her triangle and main body color swapped around.

I smirked at the dragon, "Well Latias, I'm here to catch you so you and your brother can go home."

She looked at me with suspision, "So, did you find my brother?"

I nodded, "Yeah, my friend caught him and he's staying at a friend's house with others," she still gazed at me, but her suspision faded slightly.

"Fine, I'm in, but only until I see my brother," Latias agreed as she pressed my Masterball and caught herself. I smiled to myself then looked at Floramon with a what did I tell you look, she just smiled back as we made our way back to Benjamin's home.

That's when things took a turn for the worst as a portal appears underneath our feet, "Great, not again!" I shouted as we fell through and the portal sealed behind us. We fell for what seemed like forever until we landed into a thick forest outside of what seemed like a wierd, small city made out of treehouses, that's when Floramon and I started shouting no at the top of our lungs as we made landfall. A few minutes later we were picking ourselves off the ground and rubbing the dirt off of ourselves.

"Great, seems we're back in the Pokemon world," Floramon sighs as we see some pale guy run out of the nearby city. He wore white draw string pants, with an open robe and a white T-shirt underneath, "Hey, what's he running from?"

I shook my head, "Don't know, let's go see," we made our way to the guy, but he took one look at us and ran straight past, that's when a woman with chestnut hair and a long, pink dress who ran up to us.

She seemed out of breath, but she managed to get out what she was going to say, "Y-you have a Digimon too?" I nodded in understanding then looked at her in shock.

"Wait, you mean, you-" I was cut off as a plant creature called out to the lady.

"Mimi! Did you get him?" the creature was a Palmon, a green plant digimon with a red flower on her head and green claws on her hands. Mimi shook her head, then Palmon noticed Floramon, "Hey, you're a Floramon!"

Floramon nodded, "Yes, and you're a Palmon, now tell me, do you two know Tai and Matt?"

Mimi smiled with delight, "Why yes, you mean you found them?"

I shook my head, "Well, Tai and Agumon found us and my friend, Dante, found Matt and Gabumon."

"I see, well where are they at?" the woman asked me.

"They're at Benjamin's, but I'm not sure how to get back, because I fell through a portal like you," I replied causing her to give me a disappointed look.

"Oh, well then I guess we're going to have to find that boy, he seems like he knows his way around, and I'm worried about him," Mimi replied causing me to nod in agreement, "Now, do you know which way they went?"

Floramon stepped forward, "He went to the East of here, it should be a pain, but I'm positive we'll find him."

[Dante]

I had woken up an hour ago, and even then, Chloe had already been gone for thirty minutes, "Where is that girl? She lectures you about listening to the group and then she goes out on her own for over an hour, she should know better."

Tai and Matt grinned at me then chimed together, "Sounds like someone's worried about someone."

I turned to them and gave them a death glare, "I'm just saying, we need to be finding the remaining Digidestined and help the other world and she's out doing who knows what."

"Suuuure," Drake smirks.

Latios even started getting in on the team up, "Come on, luvdisc, just admit you like her."

I growled at all of them, "Oh shut up, all of you."

Tai started chuckling, "Damn, we may have struck a nerve, come on guys, let's lay off of him."

"Yeah, I'm sure this isn't good for our impressionable Digimon," Scarlet agreed, "I don't want Conomon to grow up and act like you all."

Latios took offense to that, "Are you implying I'm a bad influence?" the dragon scoffed at the thought, "I'm a great role model for children!"

"Latios, if your ego was any bigger, we'd sufficate in the room," Agumon chuckled, causing him to punch himself in the face, "Ouch..."

Latios looked away from the yellow dragon in annoyance then jerked his head back to where it was, "They found her."

"Who found who?" Tai asked in confusion.

"You're friends found Latias, and they're back at our world now, it's imperative we get back there!" Latios urged.

I nodded in agreement, "I totally agree, who knows what will happen if they don't find them."

"Hold on, there's more," Latios reported, "it seems that Latias and the others are travelling with a woman by the name of... Mimi Tachikawa."

"Mimi!" Tai and Matt shout in unison.

Dorumon tilted his head in confusion, "How do you know all this?" the purple dino wolf wondered, "Do you share a psychic link with your sister or something?"

Latios nodded at the question, "Yes, that is how we keep in touch and report any important information to each other."

"I see, well I'll see what I can do about getting you back, in the mean time I want you to hold on to this, Drake," Benjamin speaks as he gives a small flashdrive to the boy, "That should allow you to go back to the Digital World any time you need to."

"Perfect!" Drake grinned then turns to the others, "Who's ready for a rescue mission?" everyone cheers, except Latios who just nods in agreement. Benjamin nodded and turned to a nearby terminal and got to work.

"Latios, do you mind asking your sister where their location is?" Benjamin asked the dragon.

"No problem," the blue dragon closed his eyes then openned them seconds later, "Try and set your coordinates for the outskirts of Fortree City."

Benjamin nodded once more, "I got it, it should be ready outside my door step," the man smiled slightly as everyone got ready, "Don't hesitate to give me a shout if you need me."

"Don't worry about that, I'm pretty sure we'll call sooner or later," Matt chuckled as everyone said their good byes and made their way out of the house and into the portal. Yet again, we fell but this time we saw familiar faces on our way down, Chloe, Floramon, Mimi, and Latias.

Chloe sighed as she saw us fall, "Great, I hope they don't black out."

Mimi chuckled and nodded, "Yeah, that'd be bad," soon after that statement we all landed in the trees, while everyone fell straight through, I got caught on some vines and sighed as I became stuck.

"Uh... can I get a little help?" I asked as shortly after small fire balls from Drake's Growlithe lands on the vines and burn them to snapping, "Oh geez!" I shouted as I landed on my front, "Ow..."

Tai was busy getting leaves out of his shirt while Matt and Scarlet brushed small sticks from their hair, "Damn trees, why'd it have to be trees? Why couldn't it have been a pond for once?" Drake sighed.

"Tai! Matt!" Mimi greeted her friend as they walked up to her, "I got something to tell you guys."

"What is it?" Tai asked in confusion, "Do you know where someone else is?"

Mimi shook her head, "No, but I know someone is out there gathering up Digidestined, I landed with Sora and shortly after she and Biyomon were kidnapped by a group of thugs and not only did they have those Pokemon, they also had Digimon with them, but I doubt they were Digidestined because I never saw a Digivice."

Matt seemed to growl slightly while Tai shook his head in annoyance, "Well, I guess that means we're not done here until we catch our theif, or thieves in this case."

With renewed vigor from my time back at the Digital World I nodded, "Yeah, they're not going to get away with this, I'll work to find them even if I die here."

Tai looked at me and nodded, "Good, but if things get too dangerous, you're just going to have to leave things to us."

I just nodded somberly, "Well, we got any leads?"

"Well there was this pale guy we saw running from Mimi earlier," Chloe spoke up, "I'm almost positive he's still nearby."

Drake grinned at the thought, "What's he look like?"

"He has draws string pants with and open robe and a white shirt underneath," Mimi told us, "Maybe some of us should go look for him while the rest of us look for other leads."

Tai nodded in agreement, "Yeah, you're probably right, okay, Drake, Dante, and I'll go find the guy, the rest of you snoop around town and see what you can find."

Latios and Latias soon come out of both their Masterballs and greeted each other, "Brother, it's so good to see you!" Latias cheered.

"yes, and you two sister, I'm glad to see you're alright," the blue dragon agreed, "Now do me a favor, go and help the others while I go help in the search for the boy."

Latias seemed hesistant at first, "But why? We just reunited," but Latios did not change his mind, he was dead set on helping the others.

"I know, but they found you, and I guess I owe them at least this much," the older brother replied causing Latias hesitate once more but finally agreed, "Good, now come on, let's try and find this guy."

[Tai]

We trudged through the forest, it was almost like I was trudging through the Digital World for the first time again. I felt worried for those who might be caught, what were they going to do to them? This, I didn't know, but I did know that if anyone dared to hurt them in any way, someone was going to pay, "Hey, I think I see him," I heard Drake speak up as we saw a pale boy regaining his breath after what seemed like a long run.

I nodded in agreement, "Yeah, certainly matches the description, "Hey!" I called out, the boy just looked to me, but didn't say anything, "We need to ask you a few questions."

The boy stared at our Digimon and Latios intensely then nodded, "Good," Dante smiled, now do you know anything about these?" he asked as he pulled out a Digivice, the boy just stared at the device in his hand.

"If you have a battle with me, I'll tell you everything," the boy replied.

Dante was about to step up but was blocked by Drake, "I got this one, you've been pulling the weight for the last couple of fights, this is my turn," Drake then turned to the boy, "By the way, what's your name?"

"Korren, Korren Frost," the boy replied and pulled out a Pokeball, "Go, Thorn!"

I saw the boy Korren send out a Pokemon that looked like a metal pin coushin, "A Ferroseed, huh?" Drake analized, "Okay, go, Growlithe!"

Korren squinted his eyes but sighed, "Thorn, use Rock Smash!" the attack lands on Growlithe as he transforms into the black fox, Zorua, "Just as I thought."

"Uh oh, oh well, glad I prepared you for these situations, ready buddy?" Drake asked as Zorua nodded in eagerness, "Great, use Incinerate!" we noticed Korren whince as Thorn faints and is returned.

"You did good, come on out, Jet," the Pokemon took shape as a dinosaur bird hybrid, this Pokemon was known as Archeops, "Jet, use Fly!" the Archeops flew above the clouds.

"Damn it, where'd it go?" Drake asked, "Zorua, get ready for anything," the small fox nodded, but was not prepared when the attack struck and sent the small Pokemon flying into Drake's arms, "Okay, you're done," Drake smiled and returned Zorua causing Korren to think about the trainer, "You ready for this, Korren?" Drake sent out his second Pokemon revealing a grey and white bird, "Staravia, ready?"

"Star," it nodded.

"Great, use Steel Wing!" the boy shouted causing Staravia to nod and charge.

Korren took notice of the attack in time, "Jet, use AncientPower!" both attacks collide and both hit their marks, causing the two flying types to faint and be returned.

"Great, hey Korren, since we both have two fainted Pokemon, how about this next K.O. decides it?" Korren nods in agreement causing Drake to grin, "Okay Punimon, it's your time to shine."

Korren eyed the pink creature suspiciously, "Surely this isn't your choice."

"Oh but it is, right Punimon?" Punimon nods viciously towards Drake then turns to Korren and stares him down.

"Fine then, Talon, it's time to finish this," the green and dark gray dragon took form with what appeared like a boomerang in it's mouth, it's name was Haxorous.

"Uh, Drake? You do realise Punimon is only a Fresh level, don't you? It doesn't stand a chance!" I shouted towards him, but Drake just turned to me and grinned.

Drake then started to speak, "Undefeatable odds, right?"

I smiled and nodded, "Right."

Drake then turned back towards his opponent, "Okay Punimon, you're in control now."

Korren shrugs, "Talon, use Dragon Claw!" Talon charged but was easily dodged by Punimon. Korren was surprised, but not phased by this fact, "Okay then, Talon use Dragon Claw once more then hit it with Dragon Pulse!" Punimon then dodged the first attack, but wasn't quite fast enough to dodge the Dragon Pulse and is slammed into a nearby tree, "Good job, Talon."

I saw frowned as Drake ran up to Punimon and begged for the little blob to get up, "Come on, Punimon! You got to get up, you got to!"

the pale boy noticed this, "You know what, you won this rou-" he was stopped as Punimon was surrounded in a bright light.

"Punimon?" Drake asked softly.

Punimon purred, "Drake..." the light faded as where Punimon was a larger, red and blue mammalian Digimon with several, short tails and two long ears, "Elecmon!"

"He skipped In-Training and went straight to Rookie!" Drake marvelled.

Drake looked down at his partner, "Elecmon, huh? Ready for round two?" Elecmon looked up at him and smiled, "That's the enthusiasm I was looking for."
