How's it hanging my dudes? The 3rd Dragneel, coming with the first chapter of the Sun Village arc! I know a lot of people are interested in seeing how Team Natsu will react to the other D-Warriors, as well as seeing how little Agumon will grow when Digivolving. Plus with the reveal of Devimon as the first villain will set up events for the Myotismon, Devas, Tartarus and Dark Masters arc. I promise the members of DF-Warriors will get development since I do feel bad that they were created just to fill in the numbers of the D-Warriors and some of their backstories are interesting. Whoops, almost spoiled some of it, lol.
DB-19: Seriously man, if it doesn't relate to this story, don't say anything.
BanRedfox: Yeah, I really liked the songs, so I decided to add them as a start for this story. Hopefully you saw how some of the images will show future events *choke goggles choke*. Well how would you react if someone spit out their bread on your face, plus like Digitamamon said: fool me once, shame on you. Yeah, they had some burns on their tongues, but otherwise, they'll be alright. As for who Robert was talking about…..that'll be revealed later on. They're the Dark Tamers, they're supposed to be intimidating, especially with the Master making Devimon of all people submit to his rule. Callum, despite having the same voice as Alucard, is more of an Itachi(you'll figure out what I mean. Yeah, let's just say that Gajeel will get a surprise, along with Levy, Juvia and Romeo. Well…...yeah, that's what Project F is. Trust me, the rest of the Crests will be revealed later on. It's okay with the long review, I don't mind my friend.
Ak-Jaidyn: Sorry, but I didn't like what happened after the first season of Ninjago.
Rufus264: Thanks, I tried my best.
Wargreymonxtreme11: Hmm…...that idea with the scrolls does sound interesting, so I might keep it in mind(I am curious why you're interested in Doctor and not some of the others.)
Kamen Rider W: Yes, yes she is.
PantherWarrior21: Yeah, sorry man. I do like that idea with the Celestial Spirits, but they still won't be strong enough to fight higher level Digimon.
Nickjudy72: Hmmm…..that actually sounds like a good plot. Don't know if I'd go that far with a Digimon being a part of the Earth. And that last thing with Doctor is…..interesting?
Tigerdancer21: Well I do have plans for a sad ending for both of them. Man, you really have the darkest things for the Doctor. But….what the hell is Crawford?
Now to recap: Flamemon had awoken in a strange room, which was owned by Lucy Heartfilia, who brought her friends along to learn more of who he was and how he got there. After a long discussion, it was decided that he would stay for the time being, at least until he was at 100% strength. Meanwhile, Robert was given the Black Gear from Ichigo, who he told along with Megan to keep a secret while he did some investigating with a man called Matthew. The next day, Team Natsu was given an assignment by Makarov to help out one of the four emperors of Ishgar Warrod, and Lucy was forced to take Flamemon with her for protection. At the same time, the D-Warriors detected Digimon in Sun Village and because of the recent attacks, Robert ordered Natsu and the others to investigate. Little did they know, the Dark Tamers were sending Callum, Yuki and the evil Devimon were going there as well. How will things turn out with our heroes? Let's find out!

"Hitori ja nai" bokura tsunagatteru kara
Asu e to fumidashitaku natta nda
The sun begins to rise from the horizon, hovering over Magnolia as Agumon stands on top of a cliff, looking at it in wonder.
Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunai de
A hand was placed on his head, ruffling it as he smiles to the left, revealing it to be Natsu.
Kono sora ni azayaka na niji wo kakeyou!
The Dragon Slayer then looks at the sun as it hovers over both of them. The title of the story appears overhead.
Kore to itte torie mo nai
Rettou kan to aruite jishin datte nai
Vex is seen reading from a large green book as Gaomon walks up with a tray and tea. The black haired male smiles as he accepts the tea and reads the rest of the contents to his partner.
"Tte yuuka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
Akame stands on top of the guildhall, looking at the moon while the wind blew gently passed her, her long hair flowing with it like a river.
Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku…
Renamon materializes behind her tamer before the two disappear into the wind.
Kokoro no naka de hito ni naru to Flash back!
A steel sword spun in the air before Haru caught it, with Guilmon hugging him from behind while smiling as the Crest of Miracles appeared behind them.

Kimi to nara dekasou sa Right now!
Tsubaki threw three kunai as Falcomon flew over her and the Crest of Sincerity appeared behind them.
Ready set go!
Megan and Sarah go back with back, with both their Pawnchessmon standing proudly in front of them.
"Hitori ja nai" tte omoeta toki kara

Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukan de arukidasu yo
Erza and Gray appear back to back, with two smaller figures standing in front of them.
"Futari nara" fukanou nante nai sa
Gaomon digivolves into Gaogamon before launching a Spiral Blow, then Renamon turns to Kyubimon and uses a Fox-Tailed Inferno, followed by Terriermon evolving to Gargomon and launching a barrage of Gargo Pellets. Guilmon evolve to Growlmon and unleashes a Pyro Blaster while Falcomon becomes Peckmon to throw several Kunai Wings, and finally Agumon turns to Greymon to launch a Nova Blast.
Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
Passing Greymon was a large devil-like monster that extended its arm towards the Tamers.
Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai
Natsu places a hand over his Crest of Courage as his whole body in engulfed in an orange aura. Opening his eyes, he charges at Callum, who has a green aura surrounding him.
Chikara wo kasanete tobitatsu yo…
The two clash three times before Natsu reels his right fist back, with Callum doing the same before their attacks collide, creating a large explosion.
Tachidomaru na Don't stop!
Robert turns around with Wormmon on his shoulder while smiling.
Soba ni iru kara Don't cry!
Digitamamon jumps out of the kitchen while 'holding' a spoon and knife and giving an eye smile.
Kimi wa mou hito ja nai!
Type A looks over his shoulder and grins while Calumon rides on his right shoulder, waving happily at the audience. A male with spiky brown hair pulling up his goggles while smiling.
Everything's gonna be alright, alright!
Natsu and Agumon high five each other before running off with Happy flying right behind them while all their friends are standing behind them.
'Odaiba Town train station'
Natsu Dragneel and the D-Warriors were seen walking along the streets of Odaiba, their Digimon walking in plain sight. "Hey, are you guys sure that we should shouldn't wearing clothes?" Agumon asked in concern, only for Sarah to rub his head while giving a warm smile.
"Don't worry about that honey, Odaiba town knows about the Digimon thanks to our guild." Sarah reassured, getting some comments from the citizens.
"Renamon, I love your pelt!"
"Guilmon, I got some fresh bread for you!"
"Terriermon, we love you!"
"Gaomon, can I pet you?"
"Check it out, Natsu Dragneel's with them!"
"So awesome, think we can take a picture of them?" Yup, it was safe to stay that their Digimon were just as popular as they were.
"So what happened next?" Haru asked Natsu.
"Okay, so it was me, Gajeel and Wendy: we were low on magic and the metal dragon was ready to take us down. But because the Exceeds and our friends needed us, we combined all our magic together, took down Faust, and saved Edolas." Natsu said with a confident tone, recalling his adventures in Edolas.
"Hmmm, that sounds…..interesting." Vex said, still surprised to hear of an alternate version of Earthland.
"Were there any Digimon in Edolas?" Falcomon asked curiously.
"Well…...we weren't there for that long, plus I didn't see any of them in the castle. Then again, that king was a jerk to us."
"You said there were other versions of your friends there, can you please tell us about them?" Tsubaki asked, also being drawn into the discussion.
"The Gray in Edolas wore a lot of freaking clothes and was a real wuss, Lucy was really strong and pushy, Wendy….was big, and there was an even scarier Erza there." A shiver ran down Natsu's spine, just thinking about Erza vs Knightwalker was like seeing Godzilla fighting Spacegodzilla, but even scarier. Thank god he ran off when he did or else…...well he didn't want to think about that.
"But what about you?" To their surprise, he didn't say anything.
"Natsu?" Agumon tugged on Natsu's arm, only for him to grumble a bit.
"Come on Hot Shot, tell us~" Sarah said with a teasing voice, hugging Natsu's left arm. "I promise we won't laugh." As blunt as Natsu was, even he couldn't help but blush, feeling her soft mounds pressed against his arm while she gave an innocent, yet curious look.
"He was a…."
"A what? Come on, pleeeaasssseeee?"
"He drove a magicmobile around, but….he's a big wuss when he gets out of it, okay? My other self is a wuss who can't even act tough when out of his damn car!" Being the loudmouth he was, Natsu was heard by everyone in the train station, who looked at him in bewilderment.
"Yell to everyone why don't you." Ichigo said while shaking his head. Some of the Tamers just laughed a bit nervously while Sarah struggled to stop herself from giggling.
"Hey, you said you wouldn't laugh!"
"Come on handsome, that was funny." Sarah playfully flicked Natsu's nose, making him pout. The group eventually reached the train station, luckily the train hadn't arrived yet.
"Okay, me and Ichigo are gonna get the tickets. You guys just relax." Megan told the group, who nodded as she and the orange haired male went to the ticket booth.
"Still not feeling okay with keeping the Gear a secret?" From the look on her face, Ichigo hit the nail on top of the head.
"Yeah, if this thing is as serious as my uncle is saying it is, then we have to let the others know." Her blue eyes softened as she looked down. "I don't want to lose people." Megan gave a fake smile when the ticket booth gave her the tickets. "Thank you."
"Hey, come on Megan. Momentai." Terriermon said before jumping on her left shoulder. "Like Robert said, we have to focus on the here and now. No point in worrying about that little gadget now. So turn that frown upside down!"
"He's right, we have to focus on the mission now." Ichigo put his hands in his pockets while looking at the distance. "There's a lot of crap we don't understand, but sometimes we'll find the answer when we least expect it. If we hold onto our problems, then we won't be able to enjoy our lives. I'm worried too, but like he said, we need to keep going, alright?" The green haired beauty was surprised at how….comforting Ichigo's words were. Granted, he was always more of the serious-tough guy of the D-Warriors, but in reality, he was a good guy at heart. What he and Terriermon were suggesting made sense, seeing as they had to keep living their lives regardless. A smile crept on her face before she gently picked up Terriermon and hugged him.
"Thank you for saying that, it means a lot." She then looked at Ichigo. "From both of you. Hard to think you'd say that STRAWBERRY." Both Megan and Terriermon giggled as they saw how Ichigo's eyebrow twitched as he gave her an irritated look.
"What the hell did I tell you about calling me that?"
"Hey Ichigo, I thought you were supposed to be sweet, not sour!"
"Shut up." Being the 'cool' guy he was, Ichigo just walked away, leaving two giggling beings behind.
"Harumon, who far is Bun Village?" Guilmon asked, getting the name completely wrong.
"It's called Sun Village." Gaomon corrected before he pulled out a map from Vex's backpack. "And it says here that Sun Village is about a three hour train ride, followed by a half hour walk, so we should be there by 2."
"At least the train isn't he-"
*Whistle*
Unfortunately for Natsu, the train had just arrived at the station, the conductor exiting the front cart. "ALL BOARD FOR NYJIN STATION!" He shouted as the other carts opened up, allowing passengers to either exit or enter it.
"Let's go." Akame said as she and the others got their things and began to walk in the cart, though Natsu was walking rather slowly.
"Natsu, are you okay?" Haru gave the Fairy Tail wizard a concerned expression as they entered the fifth cart, in the front row: Ichigo, Vex, Terriermon, Gaomon, Tsubaki, Falcomon, Megan and Black Pawnchessmon taking the left side while the others took the right.
"W-well, you see….."
"Natsu has motion sickness." Vex spoke up, taking out a book out of his bag. "Once the train moves, he'll be as green as a pear."
"Gee, thanks Vex." Heavy sarcasm was heard in Natsu's voice, since he didn't want to be seen as a weakling. His Edolas counterpart already filled that role.
"You know, I do remember hearing how you, Black Steel and Sting got sick during that cart challenge during the Grand Magic Games." Everyone except Vex, Akame and their Digimon oh'd at Megan's words since they watched or read about that. Unfortunately, fate LOVED to torture Natsu as the cart began to move again, causing him to turn green while falling on his seat, which was next to Sarah.
"Kill me….." Ichigo, Megan, hell even the Pawnchessmon sweatdropped at how…..lifeless Natsu was starting to look JUST as the train began to move.
"Anything we can do to help?"
"Akame, do that thing you did before to help Natsu." Agumon urged.
*BUMP*
"Ahh…" The train jumped slightly, making Natsu suddenly lean to the right, his head landin on Sarah's lap, much to her surprise. "So soft….."
"Ummmm…..what?"
"You see, Natsu told us that whenever he rode any vehicle, Erza Scarlet would put his head on her lap, so I asked Akame to do that before. Turns out it worked and he fell right asleep." Vex gave Sarah an apologetic look. "Sorry Sarah, but can you let Natsu lay there until we get to Sun Village?"
"It's no problem." A smile crept on her face as she ran a hand through his spiky hair. "Plus, he looks kinda cute like this."
"Not…...funny…" While the others either laughed or shook their heads, Akame closed her eyes while crossing her arms. For some weird reason, she felt a bit…..angry at Sarah for what she was doing for Natsu, yet she also felt a bit disappointed his head wasn't on her lap.
Why am I feeling like this? Sarah is just helping him, that's all. Little did she know, her partner was staring at her with a raised brow.
Hmmm, what do we have here? Something told Renamon that she would have to watch Akame's back in the future, and not from evil Digimon.
'With Team Natsu'
"Seriously, when the hell is Natsu getting back?" Gray said out loud with a tired sigh as he and his team were walking along a long dirt road, which was shown to lead towards Warrod's home.
"Come on Gray, it's been a nice walk so far, right?" Wendy urged the Ice Make wizard of the team. "Plus, we don't know how long it will take for Natsu and Agumon to train with the others."
"Plus, how can you complain with weather like this?" Lucy said while stretching her arms, letting out a relieved sigh.
"Especially with this breeze." Erza said with her own smile.
"It kinda feels like we're going out on a family picnic." Happy said.
"Perhaps it would if SOMEONE didn't complain about Natsu not being here." Carla said while looking at Gray, who looked up.
"Ummm, Lucy? Are you sure I should wear this? It feels really itchy." Flamemon said, covered in a blue cloak provided by Erza. While he was grateful that she helped him get in disguise while taking the train(such a bizarre experience that was), she could have at least given him someone more softer.
"My apologizes Flamemon, I shall make a note of that for when we return to Magnolia."
"You can take it off if you want Flamemon." Nodding, the fire Digimon removed his cloak, allowing his spiky red hair to flow in the wind.
"Man, this feels so good." It's been a while since he actually enjoyed being in the outdoors. Maybe he could ask the humans if it would be okay to camp for the night, if they're okay with that. "So….who are we going to again?"
"We're going to the house of the man who sent the job request. Which reminds me…." Lucy turned towards Erza. "Hey Erza, I remember that the ten wizard saints were chosen by the Magic Council, but how does someone get to be an Emperor of Ishgar, the same way?"
"Yes, as you know: Master Makarov and Lamia Scale Jura, along with Phantom Lord's Jose and Jell-I mean Siegrain were Wizard Saints. The four strongest among them are called the four Emperors of Ishgar"
"Maybe I should've stayed in the guild."
"S-so these four humans are the strongest among everyone?" A feeling of dread filled Flamemon. If these humans are as strong as Lucy said….then maybe it wasn't a good idea for him to be there.
"Hey, what's Ishgar?"
"It's the name of one of the continent."
"So if this Warrod guy is as strong as they say, why would need need Natsu and Gray?" It took some time, but the group were able to walk along a rocky bridge when Wendy pointed forward.
"Hey, I think I see a house on the top of the hill, see?" Wendy was right: an old house was seen not too far from their current location.
"That….is something I didn't expect." Flamemon didn't want to sound rude, but this place looked like a craphole.
"So this is the home of Warrod Sequen, the fourth strongest of the Wizard Saints?"
"He lives in a weird home."
"It reminds me of your house Happy." Before Lucy moved, a thought came up. "Flamemon, you should wear your cloak so we won't freak him out." Sighing, Flamemon reluctantly put the hood over his head as the group walked to the house, opening the door to see the house was covered in shadows, vines from trees and a LOT of potted plants.
"Is anyone home?" Wendy called out.
"We've come from Fairy Tail, about the job request."
"I've never seen this many house plants." As the Exceeds looked at the plants in wonder, Lucy noticed a figure standing in front of several plants.
"Excuse me sir."
"Ssshhhh…" The figure shushed Lucy, who squealed a bit before saying sorry. "Hush, be silent, will you?" He slowly poured water from his watering pot onto the plants. "Plants prefer peace and quiet, so do me a favor and kindly shut your wretched mouths." Lucy covered her mouth while the others just looked at him in confusion. However, once he finished up watering his plants….he smiled. "Just kidding." Much to everyone's surprise, sunlight entered the room as the flowers suddenly bloomed.
"Wow, amazing!"
"These flowers are beautiful." Happy and Carla began to examine the flowers while the others looked at him in shock. They finally noticed what the speaker looked like: he had plant-like physical features: his head resembles a slightly gnarled tree trunk, whilst his hair resembles a leafy treetop. His attire consists of a high-collared kimono tied with a belt, loose trousers, a coat, and a pair of boots. The speaker began to laughed in a goofy manner while watering more of his plants.
"Kids, it was just a joke! Lighten up. It's my belief that plants enjoy the sound of the human voice." He then began to let out a loud laugh, getting bewildered looks from everyone.
This…...human is one of the strongest? So weird. Flamemon just sweatdropped in shock.
"H-he's a tree?" Lucy didn't know whether to facepalm or laugh.
"You're telling me this guy's a wizard saint?" Gray said with a blank expression.
"I bid you a welcome, members of Fairy Tail. I thank you for coming such a long way." Warrod smiled before continuing. "Now, tell me which among you are Natsu and Gray?" The others were rather nervous about answering since they were missing the pink haired idiot. However….that wasn't going to be an issue as the man suddenly picked up both Happy and Carla in his hands. "My goodness! You're a bit more feline than I imagined!" He grinned while pulling his head back, laughing. "Got you again, you're so gullible!" Again, everyone sweatdropped at his behavior.
"Well, at least he cracks himself up."
"Uh, yeah." Even Erza was not immune to how bad his jokes were.
"Hahahaha, oh, I'm laughing so hard, I'm thirsty." The stranger then began pouring himself a drink from his watering pot, much to Wendy's shock.
"Pardon me, but we seek an audience from the wizard saint known as Warrod Sequen and need to know if we found him." The stranger finished drinking from his pot and gave a confident smile.
"Yes, you now stand before Warrod Sequen, in the bark." The others nodded in response….only for him to give a goofy smile. "Nah, I'm just kidding." They all gasped in shock before he laughed. "Ha, just kidding again!"
"This old man's a real piece of work." Warrod stopped his laughing before looking at the group.
"I see Gray Fullbuster, but what about Natsu Dragneel?"
"Ummmm, well you see sir…." Lucy didn't know if she should just come out and say it or sweeten her words before saying something that might ruin her guild's reputation. Warrod raised a curious brow at her before glancing behind her, seeing a cloaked figure doing their best to not look at him. Curious, Warrod walked towards them before grabbing their hood, pulling it back to reveal Flamemon's face.
"Hmmmm….." Due to being 4'3, Flamemon could only look up in fear at Warrod towered over him, his brown eyes glaring at his green ones. "Natsu Dragneel?" The fire Digimon glanced at Lucy, who nodded with a begging expression. Even if he was a bit uneasy with the whole situation, he did owe Lucy a lot for healing and feeding him.
"Y-yes." He narrowed his eyes, making Flamemon gulp in fear.
"No, you aren't." The Fairy Tail team were ready help out their Digimon friend…..when he suddenly began to laugh while slamming his hands on Flamemon's shoulder. "Ha, don't worry son, I was just joking! You're a lot shorter than I expected, but I'm glad you're here nonetheless!" He shook Flamemon a bit, much to his discomfort before he released him and made his way to the door. "Now come, you must be exhausted. I'll make some tea and snacks!" With that, the Wizard Saint exited the room, allowing Flamemon to let out a relieved sigh.
"Sorry Flamemon, but we couldn't tell him about Natsu. Just pretend to be him for a little while until we get the job done, okay?"
"Yeah okay. But…..what should I say to make me sound like Natsu?" Happy tapped on his chin before nodding.
"Just say 'I'm fired up' a few times, that should work." The Digimon tilted his head in confusion, but nodded regardless. Like what Warrod said, he set up some tea and cookies for the group as they sat outside.
"I'm retired now. And since retiring, I've spent my days ridding the deserts of this land back to life."
"Retired you say? Can I take that to mean you've belonged to a guild once?" warrod laughed at Erza's words.
"Yes, and a great guild it was." He stuck his hand out, summoning a small pink flower in the palm. "But that was a long time ago. These days, my allegiance is to nature. Every retired man needs a hobby: mine is turning deserts into forests. As you can imagine, I've seen many peculiar things traveling around the deserts of this land. Most recently, I came across a village hidden in the mountains. As it turned out, I had read about this place before, known as the Village of the Sun and its people worshipped and ever living flame as their guardian."
"A….fire?" Flamemon was now very curious about this Village of the Sun and its flame guardian. Who knows? Maybe this trip IS worth the trouble.
"Yes." Warrod turned dead serious as he looked at the group. "But when I got there….the whole village was frozen in ice. If by nature, the folly of man, every person, plant and creature: whole buildings too, rivers, and even the sacred flame was frozen, though it burns on even now."
"It's possible to freeze a flame?" Lucy asked in shock.
"That poor village." Wendy muttered in sadness.
"I had no idea what happened to the people there, however: one thing that was clear to me there is that they're still alive."
"But wait, didn't you say they were frozen?" Happy pointed out.
"None of this makes any sense." Carla said with skepticism in her voice.
"The people of that village are in dire need of help. They must be restored, which is why I called on you."
"We can handle the job, right Flame Brain?" Gray said, referring to Flamemon, who gulped before raising his right arm.
"I'm fired up?" Team Natsu sweatdropped at Flamemon's bad impression on Natsu, but luckily Warrod didn't notice.
"Be wary: this ice is far from ordinary. It will take more than fire alone to melt it."
"Needless to say, we'll do as you ask…." Erza looked at Warrod with some concern. "But you're one of the strongest wizards alive. Surely we could handle this, but so could you." Warrod couldn't help but chuckle, much to their confusion.
"I think you have a misconception of my rank. Despite the heavy title, we Wizard Saints are far from omnipotent. We're just ten people the Council chose to put on top of a list." The tree man stood up, looking at the sky calmly. "There are many others in this continent that can surpass me. And there are Wizard Saints beyond this continent that surpass even them. And when you look at it like that, I'm really no one special. As a matter of fact, I have almost no aggressive spells to think of. In a battle of might against youngsters like you….." He turned to them with a goofy smile. "I wouldn't stand a chance."
"Even so-"
"Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. This is what inspires others to forge a line, and then form guilds, wouldn't you agree my dear?" To say everyone was shocked by Warrod's words would be an understatement: he was right. In order for them to go beyond themselves, there has to be a line between those they are equal to and those that tower above them. Smiles crept on each of their faces, even Flamemon was inspired by Warrod's words.
"You're as wise as I imagined."
"You can leave it to us!"
"I'm…...I'M FIRED UP!" Miraculously, Flamemon actually shouted Natsu's catchphrase the same way he did it.
"We'd be glad to help." Warrod gave a proud smile to each person, admiring their bravery.
"So….where is this Sun Village?"
"Oh, about 120,000 miles south. There's a cove nearby." He then smiled while pointing his cane to the left. "The least I can do is help you reach the village. Gather there, all of you. Be sure you aren't leaving anything behind." The group was rather confused that his request, but regardless, they stood on the spot he pointed to. "Now then: everyone ready to go?"
"Ummm, Warrod sir?"
"Turn to the right." Warrod sounded more like an army general and like loyal soldiers, everyone turned to the right…..only for him laugh. "Gullible as always."
"HEY!" Everyone was giving him an annoyed glare. Suddenly, Warrod's staff began to glow from the ground.
"I leave this task in your hands youngsters of Fairy Tail. Should you face yourselves in this journey, I ask you to look closely: do this and you shall overcome whatever obstacles that may befall you." Suddenly, a large tree shot out of the ground, carrying Team Natsu up in the air, much to their shock.
"He can make a tree fly like a dragon!" The tree kept growing at high speed, flying over towns and people alike. Erza looked back with a grateful smile. "Kind, and humble, but his magic is amazing. The power to control nature itself."
"Oh yeah! Sun Village, here we come!" Filled with so much excitement, Flamemon threw his arms in the air like he just didn't care. He couldn't wait to see what the future had for him and his friends.
'With the D-Warriors, sometime later'
We now shift our attention to Natsu, Agumon and the D-Warriors, who were currently walking through a forest as a means to get to Sun Village. The train ride itself was okay: some took the time to sleep, some ate on the train and the rest just talked amongst themselves. "Man, that was an awesome train ride." Natsu said, stretching his arms while letting out a relaxed sigh.
"You were asleep the whole time. How the hell would you like the ride?" Ichigo asked with a raised brow, getting a shrug with Natsu.
"Come on Ichigo, lay off on him." Sarah said with a giggle. "It's not everyday you see a famous wizard lose his cool on a train ride."
"Hey." Natsu gave her an annoyed pout, making her giggle even more.
"Vex, how long are we until we get to Sun Village?" Haru asked with his hands behind his head, glancing at the black haired male, who reached in his backpack and pulled out the map.
"Well, judging by where we were dropped off and the path we're walking through, it should be over the hill." Vex answered before looking at Megan. "Megan, has the DSU picked up any Digimon signatures?"
"Hmmm, this is weird." Megan muttered while activating her Archive Magic.
"Is something wrong?" Tsubaki asked with some concern.
"Earlier this morning I was able to detect at least six Digimon in the Champion level, but now I can't find any."
"Think they've moved on?" Gaomon asked with a raised brow.
"If they did, then I would've picked it up. It's like they just…...disappeared. All we know now is that they were last seen in Sun Village, but that's all." No one liked this: if they were Champion level, then they would've still detected them.
"Falcomon, can you please fly ahead and scout the area?"
"Of course Tsubaki." Falcomon said before he opened his wings and began to fly over the trees. He craned his head to the left, then to the right to see if there was anything interesting to report. However, once he looked forward, his yellow eyes widened in shock. "Everyone! We have a problem!" Akame and Renamon looked at each other before nodding, jumping from tree to tree in a fast pace.
"Hey, wait up!" Agumon shouted before he and the others began to run after them. They pushed through some branches, bushes, even scaring a few squirrels before they reached the clearing. But what they saw caused them to widen their eyes.
"What the hell?" The area in front of the group was…...frozen, like LITERALLY frozen. Pinkish ice covered the ground, the rocks, even the flowers weren't spared. White Pawnchessmon walked to the ice before stabbing it with his spear, though it wasn't able to even leave a scratch.
"Woah, this places looks like an ice cream paradise!" Terriermon shouted in bewilderment while jumping off Ichigo's shoulder, only to slip on the ice.
"Hmmm…." Guilmon walked up to the ice, tilting his head in confusion before raising his right arm. "Rock Breaker!" He then karate chopped the icy rocks….only for it to do nothing as he held his claws in pain. "Ouchy, Harumon this ice is too hard."
"Akame, can you find a weak spot?" Nodding at Vex, Akame closed her eyes before opening them, her ruby eyes glowed slightly as she stared at the ice. Natsu scooted next to Sarah before leaning to her ear.
"Ummm, what's she doing?"
"That's Akame's magic. It's called Vision Magic, which lets her find things the normal eye wouldn't find, as well as find any weaknesses in people, animals and even objects like this ice so she could strike them." He ohh'd in understanding….at least by his standards as Akame closed her eyes, deactivating her magic.
"I can't find any weak spots. This ice is unnatural, I can see some radiation of magic." Vex rubbed his chin in thought. It was the middle of spring, and they weren't anywhere near the arctic areas of Fiore. Who had the power to freeze an entire area like this?
*Beep, beep*
His thoughts were cut short when the DSU began to beep, allowing Megan to activate her magic and see a single dot on the map. "It looks like we got a signal. One Digimon, Rookie level is close by."
"Alright, let's make a plan to-"
"Alright, bring it on!" Being the hot headed person he was, Natsu and Agumon ran up the rocks to fight the new Digimon.
"Natsu, wait!"
"That idiot." Ichigo shook his head in disappointment before he and the others ran after him. As they climbed the hill, Agumon caught the scent of something…..familiar.
"Natsu, I think I smell something."
"Really?" Natsu also began to smell the air, only to caught the familiar scent of strawberries, vanilla, blueberries and fish in the air. "Yeah, you're right."
*Slip*
"CRAP!" Unfortunately, due to the ice being slippery, Natsu fell forward, rolling on the ice and began falling down the hill.
"Nat-SU!" Like Tamer like Digimon, Agumon also slipped on the ice and began to fall down the hill. Both males comedically rolled in a fast motion, though miraculously they never hit a frozen tree.
"Hey Lucy, did you hear that?"
"I think so."
"Wait, that sounds like….."
*CRASH*
"KYAH!" Natsu let out a groan while rubbing his head in pain. Damn that ice for being too slippery for him, and damn Gray for using that magic. However, that scream just now sounded…..familiar.
"Hey little buddy, you okay?"
"MMhhmmm…" Agumon held his head before opening his eyes, only to see a head of blue hair in front of him. "Wait…..that smell."
"AGUMON?!" The yellow reptile widened his eyes as he saw the person he crashed into was none other than Wendy Marvell, who held her head while also staring at his green eyes.
"It's you!" Natsu looked at his Digimon, only to see Wendy in front of him.
"Wendy?!"
"Natsu?!" Said person turned around to see the rest of his team looking at him in shock, along with a cloaked figure.
"Guys?!"
"Natsu, are you okay?!" The rest of the D-Warriors ran down the hill, only to see a familiar team standing with their friends.
"Vex, Akame!"
"Erza, Lucy, Gray, Wendy?!"
"Guilmon!" Of course, the red lizard thought they were playing a game and just called out his name.
"Other humans and…..Digimon?" The cloaked figure slowly stepped back in fear, only for a hand to be placed on his shoulder.
"Where are you going?" Renamon said in a serious tone, making him gulp before she removed his hood, revealing his true self.
"Wait, he's not a bad guy." Lucy shouted, getting between Renamon and a frightened Flamemon.
"Vex, explain." Erza said in her usual stern voice, getting said person to sweatdrop.
"Ummm, okay? But can you explain why you're here and why you have a Digimon?" Megan took the time to take out her Digivice, which looked a lot like Vex and Tsubaki's, except it was black.
"Flamemon, Champion level variable Digimon. It says here while he's kind by nature, he has absolutely no combat instincts." She put away her Digivice before looking at the Fairy Tail team. "Vex and Akame never told us you had more than one Digimon."
"That's cause he only showed up yesterday." Vex tapped on his chin before nodding.
"Okay, before we continue, we should at least introduce the others." Vex then extended his arm towards his friends. "Erza, Gray, Lucy, Wendy, Happy and Carla, these are the other members of our guild, D-Warriors."
"That's your guild name? Pretty weird, no offense." Gray said with his hands in his pockets.
"At least we don't lose our clothes like you." Gray raised a brow at Ichigo before he looked down….and noticed he threw away his olive green trench coat.
"Not again!" Everyone sweatdropped at Gray's actions, even if this was the first time(not count Renamon since she saw him do that during their fight) the D-Warriors saw this, judging by how he phrased that, this was 'normal.'
"My name is Haru Glory and this is my partner Guilmon."
"Hi!"
"I'm Ichigo Kurosaki and this is my partner Terriermon."
"Hmmm…." Terriermon tilted his head innocently at Lucy before smiling and pointing at her. "Hey Ichigo, look! She's got big ballons on her chest!"
"WHAT?!" Seeing as Lucy was wearing rather 'inappropriate clothes' in the middle of this frozen forest, her large chest was hugged tightly by her pink tank top. Said person covered her chest, blushing in embarrassment while the others…..kinda had to agree with Terriermon.
*BONG*
"OWW!" But that still didn't stop his Tamer from hitting him on top of the head. "What was that for?!"
"That was for something something stupid."
"But it's true! Look at them: they're like huge melons!" Lucy blushed even more from embarrassment while Ichigo pulled on Terriermon's ear. "OKAY, OKAY, I'M SORRY!" Laughing nervously, Tsubaki folded her hands forward before bowing her head.
"My name is Tsubaki Nakatsukasa and my partner is Falcomon. It's an honor to meet you."
"Yes, it is." Falcomon followed his Tamer's lead and bowed to the group.
"I'm Sarah Becker, and this is my partner Pawnchessmon. Nice to meet ya." Sarah's Digimon nodded in acknowledgement.
"And I'm Megan Mizu, and my partner is black Pawnchessmon." Both Megan and her Digimon bowed their heads slightly. "If you don't mind me asking, what are you doing here Fairy Tail?" Lucy decided to answer her question.
"We got a job request from Warrod Sequen, one of the four Emperors of Ishgar to free Sun Village from this ice."
"Wait, an Emperor of Ishgar?!" The D-Warriors widened their eyes in pure shock while their Digimon were a bit confused, though judging by their reactions, this Warrod guy was important.
"An Emperor of Ishgar asked YOU to do a job?! That's so awesome." Haru opened his backpack before holding out a picture of Team Fairy Tail from the GMG and a black pen. "Please, can I have your autographs?!"
"Ummmm….." The Fairy Tail wizards were no strangers to being asked to sign autographs, but a sudden request from a Digimon Tamer was something they didn't expect.
*Whack*
However, Haru then cried in pain as Akame handchopped his head. "We have a mission to do Haru, you can ask later." The silver haired male gave Akame a put, which didn't affect her the slightest before he sighed.
"You're right, I'm sorry." Nodding, the red eyed swordwoman looked at Flamemon, who was fidgeting nervously.
"Now, can you tell us why you have a Digimon with you?" For the next few minutes, Lucy explained how she saved Flamemon from drowning, how she and the others treated him, and especially what he experienced prior to coming to Magnolia. By now, Natsu and the D-Warriors, even their Digimon felt angry at what these people did to the fire Digimon.
"We didn't want to leave him alone in my apartment if anyone tried to break in, so we brought him along….saying he was Natsu." Lucy scratched her cheek nervously while Natsu raised a brow.
"Really?"
"Aye, it was so Warrod wouldn't think we were lazy to not bring you! I even told him your catchphrase, right Flamemon?" Happy said proudly to Flamemon.
"I'm fired up?"
"...what the hell was that?" Natsu shook his head in disappointment. "You gotta have more energy than that." He choked in his hand before yelling at the top of his lungs. "I'M ALL FIRED UP!"
"ANYWAYS." Vex spoke up, wanting to get down to business. "It looks like we're all heading to the same area."
"What do you mean?" Carla asked with a raised brow before Megan used his Archivee magic.
"This is called the Digimon Sensory Unit. It lets us find any Digimon that's Champion level or above. This morning, I was able to pick up six Champion Digimon in this area, but then they all just disappeared somewhere in Sun Village, which is why my uncle, our guildmaster sent us all. Natsu and Agumon volunteered to come along in case we needed help."
"Which is why I have a proposal for you Fairy Tail: let's all work together to free this village while also trying to find any Digimon nearby. What do you say?" The Fairy Tail wizards looked at Vex before glancing at Natsu.
"Natsu." Erza had a serious tone in her voice. "Do you trust them?"
"With my life." Natsu also gave a serious expression.
"Yeah! They've helped us train, so the least we could do is help." Agumon said, supporting the D-Warriors. Erza stared at Vex's yellow eyes before smiling.
"Very well, we shall agree to your proposal." Both male and female shook hands, signifying the new alliance between Fairy Tail and the D-Warriors, unaware of what they were going to face.
'With Warrod, just as Fairy Tail left'
"Time certainly does fly by doesn't it…...Mavis?" Warrod said with a nostalgia smile as he closed his eyes, remembering his young years.
"Hey Warrod!" A cheery voice called out, making him turn to see Maxis Vermillion calling out to him with a big smile. "Get over here will ya!" Chuckling, Warrod walked up his friends Yuri and Precht standing in front of a large building with a banner with a fairy in the middle.
"Hey, there he is." Yuri Dreyar called out as Precht shook his head.
"He does like to take his time." Precht said as Yuri smirked.
"You were off daydreaming again, weren't ya?"
"Take a look. Our dreaming come true." Warrod smiled at the building.
"Wow, amazing." He said before footsteps could be heard behind them.
"Come on Agumon, you have to be in it too!" The group watched in amusement as their friends Mavis Vermillion was pulling a black lizard creature with yellow eyes by the claw, who looked like they didn't want to be dragged. "If you don't want to be treated like a child, then move, okay?" The lizard grumbled a bit, but walked in between Yuri and Warrod, making Mavis smile. "Let's take a picture to remember this!" The camera was aimed at the group while they did different poses: Yuri smirked with a hand on his hip, Precht smiled behind Mavis, Warrod crossed his arms while smiling a little, and Mavis stood in the middle, hugging her partner with a big smile. "The day Fairy Tail was born!"
*Flash*
The photo taken all those years ago was placed on the tree as Warrod closed his eyes, enjoying the peace and quiet. "Well, you look worse for where Warrod."
"Yeah! And you have a really bushy head!" The tree man widened his eyes as he turned around to see two figures, one tall and one short, standing in front of him wearing brown cloaks.
"Who are you?" The taller figure smiled before he removed his hood, along with their partner. However, what Warrod saw caused him to drop his staff. The taller figure was a male with lightly tanned skin, spiky brown hair and matching eyes with goggles around his neck while his friend was a bipedal creature with blue skin and red eyes. It has white coloration in its belly and snout, a small horn on its nose, two ear-like appendages on its head, a yellow "V"-shaped mark on its forehead, and two yellow upside-down triangle marks under its eyes.
"Come on, don't tell me you forgot me? It's only been seven years." Warrod's eyes began to tear up before he said one word.
"T-Tai…"

Yup, I updated again this month. Reason? Because I wanted to start the Sun Village arc with some plot twists and I want to get it down as my first week school for the spring semester began. Yeah there hasn't been many fight scenes, but I want to build up to the fights that will include Callum, Yuuki, the treasure hunters and most importantly: Devimon. This chapter is mainly focused on character interactions(hope you guys liked that little scene of Akame being jealous.) But yeah, next chapter will have more twists and turns, as well as some badass moments. Now, I know this is random, but if any of you are good artists, I would like to know since I really do want a cover image for this story, so PM me if you are one. I am going to give the estimates of height for my OCs since I never actually made them. I know it shouldn't matter, but…..well I wanted to do it.
Vex: 5'8
Megan: 5'7
Sarah: 5'6
Robert: 6'1
Doctor: 6'3
Callum: 5'8
So what was that creature with Mavis? Who was the person Warrod was talking to? How will Fairy Tail and D-Warriors team up? Will I lose weight?
