A/N- I updated!


"No fair!" JP whined from his place at the mouth of the cave. "Why does Tacky get two digimon?"

Monodramon punched JP's leg and scowled. "We're not collectibles you big lug."

Takuya was still staring at Lunamon stupidly. "How can I have two digimon?" he finally asked.

Lunamon leapt back into the crevice and searched through her storage. "Coronamon and I are a pair," she explained. "You can't have one without the other. But, I'm not much of a fighter, I leave that to Coronamon."

Coronamon scoffed and rolled his eyes. "You don't fight digimon besides me at all; you worry too much about healing the other digimon."

Takuya's eyes suddenly sharpened and he looked at Zoe who was still in pain. "Lunamon, can you heal my friend's arm? She fell off the mountain and she thinks it's broken."

Lunamon poked her head out and looked at Zoe. "I can't heal broken bones, but I can speed the healing up." She ducked back in the crevice and came back out a few minutes later with her hands full of strange leaves, bowls, a water container and rope.

She handed the water container to Coronamon who then sprinted out of the mouth of the cave and was gone in the blink of an eye.

"Where's he going?" Takuya asked.

Lunamon set her supplies on the ground. "I need water to dampen these leaves," she explained. She shook the slime from the leaves off of her claws before she walked up to Takuya and held something up to him.

"My d-tector!" Takuya gasped in astonishment while he took the device.

"I've been holding onto it ever since Agunimon was alive," Lunamon said sadly. "He came to visit us one day and he left it in my care. Obviously, I didn't tell Coronamon about it; he would have lost it."

Coronamon stuck his head in the mouth of the cave. "No I wouldn't have!" He jumped in the cave and ran up to Lunamon with the full water container.

Lunamon took it and poured some of the water into one of the bowls. Then she took one of the leaves and gently dunked it in the water. She left the leaf in the water for a moment while she gently took the makeshift sling off and tossed it on the floor for Kouji to pick up. Once the leaf was wet, she took it out and placed it on Zoe's arm. Zoe flinched in pain, but visibly relaxed a moment later.

"That feels much better," Zoe sighed.

Lunamon continued to dampen leaves and gently place them on Zoe's injured arm. "If you don't overexert your arm it should heal within a couple weeks."

Zoe nodded in confirmation and relaxed when Lunamon finished taking care of her arm. Once her arm was completely covered in the leaves, Lunamon made a sling out of the rope and some cloth that she had Coronamon get.

"Thank you so much Lunamon," Zoe said gratefully.

Takuya had a big smile on his face when he saw Zoe visibly relax. "So you're a healer Lunamon, does that mean that you can't digivolve?"

Lunamon looked at Takuya sharply. "I choose not to fight, that doesn't mean that I can't."

Coronamon walked up to Takuya and gently pulled at Takuya's pants. "She isn't a fighter, but don't underestimate her, when she really gets into it she kicks my butt."

Lunamon smirked and gathered up the remaining supplies. "I guess this means that we're leaving the mountain now that you're here," she said sadly.

Takuya felt bad at the obvious sadness that was plastered on Lunamon's face. "I need your help to defeat Sabermon. We also need your help to get our friend back."

Coronamon's ears perked a little. "What friend?"

"My digimon partner, Perromon," Zoe said from her position on the floor. "She went with one of Sabermon's goons to protect us, and we're fairly sure that Sabermon will force her to take a Shadow. If we can destroy that Shadow then Perromon won't be obligated to serve Sabermon anymore."

Coronamon and Lunamon shared an alarmed glance. "Perromon is in Sabermon's clutches?" Lunamon gasped. "This is terrible! We'll leave now!"

Lunamon ran into the crevice and began throwing random supplies out into the cave. After a minute of frantic searching she emerged clutching a small shoulder bag and a tattered backpack. She tossed the backpack to Coronamon who put it on instantly.

"We're ready," Lunamon said anxiously. "We'll have to leave now before Sabermon uses Perromon to access the Forest Terminal."

"What do you mean?" Takuya asked while he helped Zoe to her feet.

Coronamon began pacing fearfully. "The Three Great Angels put some of their own energy into the Forest Terminal in case anything ever happened to them. This way if they were destroyed a digimon could access the power if needed. It's called the Heart. Not many digimon know about it, but if Sabermon knows we're in trouble."

"Slow down," Kouji said. "How strong will this power make Sabermon?"

Lunamon shook her head impatiently. "It won't make Sabermon strong. It can only make the vessel strong."

"I'm confused," Tommy said to Dorumon. "Who's the vessel?"

Zoe began trembling and she began to lose the little color she had gained back. "You mean that Sabermon is gonna force Perromon to become the vessel?"

Lunamon looked at Zoe sadly. "Perromon is the vessel. When Lord Seraphimon raised Perromon, he infused her with a small amount of the Heart. The ability to open portals isn't normal for any digimon; it's the Heart that allows her to do so. Sabermon can do two things, he can control Perromon through the Shadow, or he can absorb the Heart fragment out of her and then effectively absorb the rest of the Heart."

"What will happen to Perromon if he absorbs the Heart fragment?" Zoe asked quietly.

"She'll be erased," Coronamon said bluntly. "She won't be reborn into a digi-egg, and Sabermon will have enough power to destroy this world with a flick of his finger if he wants to."

Silence echoed through the cave when the desperate situation they were in finally sank in. After a few moments, JP cried out in frustration and stomped up to Coronamon.

"What were the Great Angels thinking by storing that kind of power?" he yelled.

Coronamon and Lunamon hung their heads sadly. "They had hoped that Perromon would use the power to destroy whatever had the strength to destroy them. But, the Heart hadn't recognized Perromon in time and Sabermon moved into the Forest Terminal so Perromon couldn't access the Heart."

Zoe pushed away from Takuya and began to walk towards the cave entrance. "What are we waiting for then?" she demanded. "We have to get to Perromon before Sabermon uses her to take the Heart."

"But how do we know he hasn't already?" Tommy asked.

Lunamon gently bit her claws in frustration. "It'll take time for Perromon to access the Heart or for Sabermon to take the Heart fragment from Perromon. How long has Perromon been in Sabermon's possession?"

"A couple of days," Zoe said sadly.

"If we move quickly we might be able to stop Sabermon," Lunamon said determinedly.

Takuya nodded and gripped his d-tector tightly. "Then let's go and get our friend back."


A/N- hehehe an update! I know it's short, but I don't really have the time to do longer chapters. Hopefully, I'll update more frequently (more reviews=faster updates!) and it is my goal to finish this story within the next few months. REVIEW!!!
