Opening her eyes, she saw that she was not where she was suppose to. She saw the others lying unconscious.
"What happened? " She thought looking around at the rocky hole they were in.
With a sigh, she resumed her meditation pose trying to get where they were but got disturbed hearing the footsteps.
"Ah, finally. You're awa - " She said but stopped. "Oh, Koichi is you... Glad to see you're ok."
"Yeah, I'm fine... But it seems that you were expecting someone else." Said Koichi crossing his arms over his chest amused.
"Oh, cut it out." She said getting up and making a few steps passing by his side. "Let's get out of here and get some help for the sleeping beauties there."
"Or is it just one?" He asked amused.
She looked over her shoulder smiling annoyed at him.
"You may have the same face but I'm not afraid to bruise it. Yours or his. So if you care for your handsomeness better shut up." She said starting to jump from rock to rock to get out of the crater.
"Oh, brother, what did you get yourself into... " Said Koichi looking back at his brother then started to climb the wall that Nayna jumped. "The air... is so thin no... oxygen...uh! " He mutter but he slips and starts falling but when he hits a side of the wall he bounces back up. "Hey! What's up with this? "
He wondered out loud as he bounced from rock to rock until he got on the edge only to find Nayna waiting annoyed.
"You are so slow."
"Huh? My brother is faster? " He asks but in a blink of an eye, Nayna grabbed him by the collar of his shirt growling in his face. "Ok, ok, sorry. I was
just kidding. " He said nervously.
"Not in the mood." The sound letting him go and started walking.
"You're worried too, huh?" He said catching up to her.
She didn't answered, just looked away. Suddenly, she snapped her head to her left and they both saw a light approaching, together with the sounds of an engine.
A tank-like vehicle came into view and stopped right in front of them.
"No offense little fellas, but you got that humans - in - the - headlights look on ya!" Laughed the Starmon driving the vehicle. "You need a ride, don't cha?"
"Yeah, thanks!" Answered Koichi.
After they took the others, the Starmon drove them to an unknown destination.
As they were staying in the back, Nayna let the unconscious Koji lay his head on her lap, took off his bandana and tied it around her wrist then turned her gaze down to Koji's face but she snapped up when she heard Koichi's voice.
"We're where?! You're telling me we're on the moon?"
"Yessiree, Mr. Greensleeves! This here is one of the three moons of the Digital World." Said the Starmon.
"I guess that explains why I could jump so easily."
"What do you mean, Koichi?" Asked Patamon.
"Well, the gravity here is way less than on earth, so we all weight loss." He explained.
"Oh, now I'm really confused..." Said the little digimon.
"Look who's a nerd." Said Nayna amused.
"I'm not. I just like to know stuff. " He faked a pout.
"Sure..." Mocked Nayna.
"That is mean."
"You asked for it."
"Come on, I'm just teasing you." Chuckled Koichi
"Well, this is the moon base where we live. Welcome to home sweet home!" Says one of the Starmon. "Yeppers. It may not be much but if you're into tubes and mountains, it's perfect. Now let's get your friends fixed right!"
They stepped onto a conveyor belt that takes them to the place they needed to go to. The lights turned on and the Starmon place each unconscious kid
on one of the beds, the machineries around the beds starting to beep as they begun their work on the humans.
"Ooh,nerdy stuff. Don't you wanna go and play?" Said Nayna looking amused at Koichi as he looked back at her a bit annoyed at her as she walked away.
She stopped by a glass wall and looked out. Leaning her shoulder by it she got lost in her thoughts again.
"He's here... How? And why? Why would he come here for? To lure me? What for? Could this all be one of his games that he wants me to find out? Could it be that everything that is happening here is all him? Could it all be...my fault? The others struggling and fighting and getting hurt...all because of me? Is it really-"
But her train of thoughts got interrupted when she felt a tug on the fabric around her wrist.
She jumped around meeting the hard ocean pools, that even though she found at Koichi, they were different somehow.
"Hey, you're finally awake." She said as she untied the bandana from her wrist.
"Yeah. Thanks." He said taking it back and putting it back on.
"You look great even without it." She said with a smile.
"Of course." He said rolling his eyes. "You alright?" He asked finally meeting her eyes.
"Yeah, it's just- "
"It seems that only you and Koichi got unharmed."
"Yeah... We're luckier I guess." She said with a shrug looking away from him.
Just then, approached them Koichi, Koji automatically turning and going towards his brother starting a conversation.
Nayna watched a bit wide eyed before putting back an emotionless vail and walked away unobserved.
Soon, the others woke up too and met by the glass wall where Koichi tried to tell them what happened.
"So, we're on the moon? " Asked Takuya.
"I can't believe it." Said Zoe.
" Well, I couldn't either but it's true." Said Koichi.
"I guess. It's not made of cheese, huh?" JP asked weakly.
"No." said Koji annoyed.
"All right already." Bokomon growled in frustration making everyone turn to him. "Now it's not the time to get flakey. We've got to return to the Digital World and save it from Lucemon."
"And how exactly are we supposed to do that? " Asked JP.
"Super Starmon said there are no terminals or rails so we can't take a Trailmon." Patamon said.
"So that means we're stuck here?" Asked Tommy.
"No. There has to be a way back. " Takuya said.
"You're right." They heard. Looking over, they saw Nayna approaching them. "And it won't be easy but there is always a way and we will find it."
"And that is?" Asked the warrior of light.
"As I said, We'll have to find it." Said the girl.
"So, you seriously, don't have a plan?" Said
incredulous and a bit annoyed.
"Well, let's all brainstorm. We're gotta come up with something right?" Said Takuya.
They all hummed in thought, only to see through the window how another piece of the Digital World disappeared.
"Aw, man, we gotta hurry. Spirit evolving may not help us think, but it's worth a shot." Said Takuya.
The others nodded and all of them went outside and digivolved.
"AIright everyone, fire on my signal and give it all you got." Agunimon said.
"You got it." Said Lowemon.
One by one, they all fired off their attacks in the same direction into the air.
"Well that ought to take care of... whatever we were shooting at." Metalkabuterimon said.
"What exactly were we shooting anyway?" Asked KendoGarurumon annoyed as they all looked at Agunimon.
"Well, nothing specific, we were just fiering that way." Said Agunimon.
"Now I'm confused AND annoyed." Snarled the wolf digimon.
"What were you trying to do genius?!" Metalkabuterimon asked.
"I don't know. I thought if we all fired in one direction, maybe we could move the moon. You know, we could use the force of our attacks to nudge it closer to the Digital World." He explained.
"Move... The moon?" Said Nayna incredulous. "Was he always this stupid?" She asked looking at the others.
"Ah... What?" Asked Metalkabuterimon dumbfounded with a sweat drop.
"Well, at least we gave it our best shot." Agunimon said laughing.
They all groaned in annoyance and disbelief.
"Come on you guys, let's go." Said Kazemon as everyone walked away, leaving the warrior of flames to laugh alone.
"That's just wrong." Said the beast of thunder.
"He lost it." Commented Kazemon.
"Hey, wait up you guys! " Called out Agunimon running after them.
Each of them then started to try to find a way to get back to the Digital World but neither managed to. Though, Koji as Kendogarurumon almost made it. Using his speed he propelled himself towards the Digital World but got pushed back by a force field
around the planet. He dedigivolved when he was close to the ground of the moon, almost falling into a deep crater only for Nayna to jump after him catching his hand.
"Ahadi!" she shouted and from inside her a golden orb floated up on the edge and turned into a huge lion with golden fur, black mane and emerald eyes. He extended his tail in the crater and got the two up.
"Thanks, Ahadi." She said looking up at the lion.
"It's always a pleasure, my queen." He said bowing his head.
She saw the others watching, them shocked and confused.
"Right. Guys, this is Ahadi, my spirit of the past and one of my best allies."
"Neither of us had a choice. We share the same energy after all. " Grinned the lion.
"He sure is big." Said Takuya
"And mean looking... well not as she, but still..." Said J.P
"What?" Asked Nayna eyeing him.
"Nothing." Responded the boy nervously.
"What happened to you up there? " Asked Agunimon turning to Koji.
"I got stuck in something. It drained all my energy. It was all I could do to stop from de-digivolving right there." He said.
"That would be the electromagnetic stream." A Meteormon said.
"Yep. It's the stream." Another one said as the crowd murmured.
"The stream is a river of energy in space that separates us from the Digital World. It's flow is changed by the pull of the moons and no one's ever crossed it." Said the first Meteormon.
"But we must have crossed it. I mean, we're all here aren't we?" Kazemon said.
"Yes and no." Said Lowemon making everyone turn to him. "We must have bypassed it. We got here through a warp created by the Royal Knights attacks." He said.
"Great, which means were never gonna find a normal way to get off this stupid rock." Whined Agunimon.
"Or... " Said Nayna looking towards the Digital World not observing all the eyes on her. "We could try and recreate the conditions of it."
"Yeah, too bad we don't have the Royal Knights power." Countered Koji.
"True. But we have two even better allies that are meant just for this." She said thinking.
"Who?"
"The other two moons of course. They also have a magnetic field that combined with each other can affect the stream and create a gate for us to pass." She explained.
"Alright, and how do we create this gate?" Asked Lowemon.
"Unfortunately, here only the moons on their own can do it, when they are aligned, their fields interact. When they will part, between them the gate will form."
"So we have to wait for the moons to align?!" Asked Agunimon agitated. "We don't have time for that? While we're here, the Royal Knights are destroying the Digital World!"
"You didn't let me finish." Said the wolfess. "Lucky for us, the aligning will be soon. One or two Two days from now. But will have an opening for a very short time so we must make it perfect or we lose it."
"Until then, we'll have to find a way to pass through."
"I have to say it, but unless we have a rocket ship, then there's no way we can get off here. " Said Lowemon.
"Wait, that's it!" Exclaimed Metalkabuterimon making everyone look at him.
"I have a bad feeling about this..." Said Nayna leaving.
The warrior watched as he started drawing in the dirt some equation while mumbling something, Agunimon groaning at the numbers and letters.
"Where did you get these equations? " Asked Lowemon.
"I saw them in a book once." Metalkabuterimon said.
"That's reassuring... " Muttered the warrior of darkness.
A little while later Nayna returned only to see Agunimon in Metalkabuterimon's cannon and was about to be fired out of it.
"Hey, are you sure this will work?" He asked nervously.
"Of course it will. Trust me. Alright, here we go." Said the beast as he positioned his canon towards the Digital World.
"Bet he will screw up? " Said Nayna to Kendogarurumon.
"I'm pretty sure he will."
"5. 4. 3. 2. 1 Blast off!" Said the beast of thunder.
And there went Agunimon, fired out of the cannon and going straight up into the air, cheering, but after about 300m away he fell to the ground.
"Uh, ok maybe it was divided by 2 and carry the pi." Said Metalkabuterimon as he returned to his equations.
"What a surprise... " Said the two wolves rolling their eyes.
"If at first you don't succeed... Hey, Agunimon! You ready to try again?" He called to the warrior of flames who was still pretty far from them.
"No! I can't believe I let you talk me into the first time, metal head! " Shouted Agunimon.
"Aw, come on." Said the beast.
"I guess this is Karma for the moving the moon stunt. " Said Nayna amused.
"Such idiots." Turned the wolf digimon to walk away.
"This sure turned into a competition of stupid plans." Said Nayna amused turning to follow him.
"This wouldn't be necessary if you came up with a plan." He said glancing at her.
"What do you mean? I did! I found your solution. The gate. It's more than you've done. Now all that is needed is a way to pass through." She frowned.
"Yeah, you came up with that AFTER we tried to find a way." He said turning to her.
"Well, sorry my ideas don't come on Spot!" She barked back.
"Please, like your mind can't work faster."
"I might and I could always find ways for someone like ME to pass but I need to think about the safety of others! I passed through at least a dozen plans already but none were safe enough. So cut the bull-" Her rant was stopped by Kazemon who flew their way.
"Hey! Guys! Lowemon found a way for us to go back!" She said cheerfully leading them to the others.
"Of course... " Muttered Nayna ignoring the glance sent her way by the beast of light.
"I just looked down and there it was." Said Lowemon.
"I can't believe it." Said Agunimon.
"Amazing." Said Kendogarurumon.
"Hey, you guys! Check it out! " Said Metalkabuterimon rushing their way holding a rock that had a drawing of a rocket on it. "I figured out how to get us back to the Digital World. You're gonna love this. All we have to do is build ourselves- " He said but got cut off by Agunimon.
"A rocket?" Agunimon asked.
"Yeah! How'd you know?" He asked then he saw the rocket in the crater.
"Hey, where did that come from?"
"Our friends built it." Someone behind them said making everyone turn. " That's the one they used for testing but as you can see, it didn't work so good." A Burgermon said as others approached.
"Hey, can we use it?" Asked Agunimon.
"Of course you can." said the Burgermon.
"Then what are we waiting for? " Said KendoGarurumon.
"Let's get that thing out of the ground." Said Agunimon.
"It's pretty heavy. Maybe we can help. The Burgernon said as the Meteormon came up.
"Yeah, we'll help ya too!" They said.
"Thanks, guys We'd appreciate it." Said the warrior of flames.
"If we help you get back to the Digital World, maybe you can help our friends down there." Burgermon said.
With that said, they all started working to pull the rocket out of the ground and started repairing it.
Kumamon came up with an idea to create a large slingshot to make the rocket fly off to the Digital World.
After it was done, they all turned back to their human forms to take a break and admire their work.
"Wow, a few repairs, a big elastic and this ship's ready to Fly." Said Zoe.
"SuperStarmon is going to out the chain and launch." Said Nayna.
"Cool." Said Tommy.
"Thanks for your help everybody." Said Takuya
"And thank you for helping our friends on the Digital World. You will do that, don't you?" Asked the Burgermon.
"We promise." Said Koji.
"Nayna, how much time do we have?" Asked Zoe turning to the white haired girl who was looking at the sky and the other two moons that were aligning.
"A few minutes. We better get going." She said turning to the group who nodded then, with a wave to the groups of Burgermon, Meteormon and Starmon, they boarded the rocket.
"Ok, next stop; Digital World." Sand Takuya
"Well, we may not remember how we got here but we're sure gonna remember getting back." Said Koichi
"The moons are aligned." Zoe said.
"Oh wow, this is exciting." Said Tommy.
"This wait is unbearable. " Muttered Bokomon.
"Let's have a sing along. Who knows 'The wheels on the bus'? The wheel on the bus-" Said Neemon but was cut off as SuperStarmon cut the chain launching them.
The kids started screaming from the force they got thrown.
Halfway on their route back the rocket begun to fall off course.
"This doesn't feel right... " Said Bokomon.
"Don't worry, I'm all over it." Said Takuya.
"Wait." Said Nayna getting up. Putting her hands out, a red aura appeared around the rocket and it started moving on their initial course again.
"We're gaining speed. Way to go, Nayna!" Said Zoe.
When they reached the electromagnetic stream, Nayna stopped as they rode the blue stream to the Digital World. With a heavy sigh, she sat back in her seat before her legs gave up on her.
"It's so weird being so weak. And my reserves are depleting; We better solve this fast or I'll be out before we get back home and I can't let that happen. No. Not with HIM here... " She thought.
Her train of thoughts got interrupted when the stream started make things rough as sparks crackled around the ship and everyone whined as they held on for it all to be over.
"We're almost through it!" Called Takuya.
"All right, we're safe. " Said Zoe with a smile when the sparks stopped.
"Not for long." Said Kaichi pointing out the rocks ahead of them.
"Oh, men, an asteroid belt." Groaned JP.
"More good news... " Said Takuja sarcastically.
He managed the controls to help evade the rocks as everyone else watched out hoping to not hit anything and get back to the Digital World in one piece.
Everyone screamed as they got spun around and got knocked out of the stream and danger.
"We're out of this stream again." Said Takuya.
"But we ' re ok. Neemon, what are you doing?" Frowned Bokomon.
"Standing on the ceiling, why?" Asked Neemen as he floated around.
Everyone undone their seatbelts laughing as they started to float too.
"Hey, this is fun" Laughed Tommy.
"Yeah, this could be fun, but I'm over it already." Said Koji with a frown with his arms crossed.
"Do you ever enjoy anything?" Asked Nayna Spinning around.
"Yeah." He said annoyed.
"Hmm, doubt that answer but I'll still ask. What?"
"Do you really want me to say?" He asked with a smirk.
Nayna looked at him a bit confused then it clicked to her and tried to hit him only to push him a bit back.
"Haha." He said mockingly.
"My skirt keeps falling up! I mean down-up. Oh whatever, just nobody look!" Zoe yelled.
She was upside down with her hands holding her skirt up so she didn't reveal her girl parts with a blush on her face and JP looked at her with a blush too.
"You heard her, JP." Takuya said looking like he was trying not to hit the guy from staring at the distressed girl.
"What're you looking at me for?" JP whined helplessly.
Something then rammed into the back of the rocket making them turn.
"What was that?" Bokomon asked.
"Excuse me, but you're in my way." Mole the Trailmon said as he gave the rocket another push.
"Wait you guys, it's a Trailmon." Takuya said as he was against the glass.
"Move it please, road hog." Mole said as he kept ramming into them.
"Um, excuse me. Would you mind giving us a push home?" Zoe asked as she gently hit the glass to get his attention.
"Well, I suppose I could leap over you, but that seems like an awful lot of work. Pushing it is." Mole said as he started pushing them.
"Grazi, Mr. Trailmon!" Zoe gushed with clasped hands.
"My nose is going to be so sore tomorrow." Mole whined.
They all looked over at the land around to see a lake was taken away.
"Would you look at the damage they've done." Koji said.
"At the rate they're going, there won't be much of the Digital World left to save." JP said.
"Now that we're back, we've got a score to settle with those Royal Knights." Koji said.
"And Lucemon. We're not gonna lose twice. The whole Digital World is counting on us." Takuya said.
