Authors notes: I'm back! Although I'm still not exactly feeling well, I don't quite trust Matt to write this properly. I mean, mountain goats?! LOL!
Matt: Sorry. Not all of us got an A+ in creative writing T_T'
Melissa: That's not the point! Anyways, this part features an insight on my own ninth child. If I ever finish the story of how she was chosen, I'll be sure to upload it. And remember, I don't own digimon!

Dungeons & Destinies
Part 6: This Place Really Is Dangerous

Melis' POV:
"Okay, that brings your total to 200 gold," said the shopkeeper.

"Two hundred gold?!" I gasped. "All I ordered was a book of spells, some powders, and food!"

"You ordered a map as well," the shopkeeper pointed out. "The book alone is 70 gold!"

"Fine!" I sniffed. "I'll just take the book then." I payed the man and walked out of the store, carrying a thick book of spells.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name's Melissa, but all my good friends call me Melis. I guess you can too! I was now a wizard, and I thought my life couldn't get any stranger! I was just a normal kid, I went to school, worked my @$$ off to get good grades, until one day I met someone.

My grade 8 teacher gave really hard history tests. Not that I ever failed, but they really stressed me out, what with all the studying. One night, I had just drifted off to sleep after studying when a noise alerted me awake. What do ya know, it was my very own digimon, as I later found out. Kamemon, an In-Training digimon, who is now his Rookie form of Pyromon.

To make a long story short, I later met the other digidestined at the mall. They needed my help to defeat MegApocalymon who turned out to have somehow come back from deletion. Through the battle and the troubles that followed afterwards, Matt and I became closer and closer until one day we just clicked.(Authors Note:*Expect that story to be posted after this one*) Now you know my story.

I walked through the village, grumbling at how pricey things were. I needed more gold, but I didn't know where to get any. *If only Matt or someone were here. They'd lend me the money to buy food and supplies.*

I sat down by the side of the road and opened my book. *Well, while I have the time, I'd better learn some spells. I can search for the others later.

Izzy's POV:
I'm Izzy. Everyone usually refers to me as the computer nerd. I prefer to call myself the electronically wise child. Unfortunately, the town I had stumbled upon didn't have any computers and I didn't have my laptop. It wouldn't have mattered anyways. The beings here hadn't seemed to have discovered the usage of electricity yet.

I was walking through the town when I noticed a familiar figure sitting by the side of the road. A familiar red-head, dressed in robes of brilliant turquoise. She seemed to be in deep concentration, studying from a rather large and thick book. I walked over and tapped Melis on the shoulder.

"Hi Melis!"

"What?" Melis said, snapping out of one of her frequent dazes. "Izzy? Oh hi!"

"Well it seems I've found one of us," I said. "What are you reading?"

"Oh, I bought this book of spells at the magic shop over there." She pointed at one of the small buildings. "I'm learning basic magic techniques. You know, in case of trouble."

"Prodigious," I nodded. "Learned anything yet?"

"No," she replied. "I just started. Rome wasn't built in a day, you know! Have you started learning your abilities yet?"

"Uh, no," I shook my head. "I'm a techno. What am I supposed to do again?"

"Build stuff," she replied simply. "Think of yourself as a pyromaniac. You build explosives!"

"So I'm a pyrotechnician," I said. She nodded. "Well, I may have the skill but I lack the resources."

I waited, expecting an answer but she just stared straight ahead, her gaze focused on something past me. She began stuttering and pointing frantically.

"I-I-Izzy?" she squeaked. "I t-think we should g-g-get out of...here now."

"What is it? Why?" The shaking of the earth gave me my answer. I turned around. A monstous humanoid beast towered over the two of us. He had one eye which glared at us evilly. "G-g-giant!!!"

"Actually, it's a cyclops, Izzy," Melis corrected as the two of us took off, running towards the distant woods. "While both are extremely dumb and fierce, there ARE differences between the two. The number of eyes is one of them."

"Normally, I'd find this highly intresting," I said as the giant chased us, "but now is really not the time!"

Sora's POV:
"Sora, do you think it's safe to go in there?" asked Kari.

"We have nothing to lose," I replied. "It'll provide shelter and maybe some of the others are in there."

My name is Sora. With me was Tai's younger sister, Kari. We had found eachother, wandering around in a canyon. Without our digivices, we couldn't track down the others, so I decided we'd find some where to set up camp. A cave in the side of the canyon wall seemed perfect.

The cave was musty and damp. Not to mention something reaked horribly. I wrinkled my nose at the horrible smell. CRUNCH! I had stepped on something.

"Sora!" I heard Kari scream.

I ran over to where she was. A horrible sight met my eyes. Animal remains littered the floor of the cave. Piles of bones and skulls were everywhere. What Kari had seen was much worse. I giant web was strung across the wall of the cave.

"Uh oh," I whispered as a chittering noise reached my ears. "Kari, run! We've got to get out of here now!"

To be continued...

Sorry if that part kinda sucked, I think I'm experiencing writer's block, or maybe it's my headache. Anyways, now that the character's situations have been introduced the real action can start! Well, I have to go now so PLEASE REVIEW!!! You can email me with your opinions too, that would work.
