Author: So how'd everyone like chapter 1? Ready for Ch.2? Sorry I don't know Wormmon's real attacks. I'm not a Digi-PHD student.

Disclaimer: None of the Digimon or digidestined kids belong to me. Wahhhhh! I want my own Ken! *KAWAIIIII* Only Juubei and Natsukimon, who I thought up belong to me. Unless there's a Juubei and Natsukimon somewhere in the show, in which case I don't own them either.

Chapter 2: Nothing Gold Can Stay

*Many months later*

"RRRROOOOOAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRR" The Tyrranomon chased Juubei and Ken through the jungle.

"Leafmon, Miramon DIGIVOLVE!"

*Digivolving sequence*

"Leafmon digivolve to....Wormmon!"
"Miramon digivolve to....Natsukimon!"

The little green caterpillar and small furry gray dragon went after the Tyrranomon. "Glue web!" yelled Wormmon and spat some sticky gunk at the Tyrranomon. The monster vainly tryed to get the stuff off his face. "Laser Breath!" yelled Natsukimon, and a gold laser beam came out of her mouth and deleted the Tyrranomon. "Yae! We did it!" Ken and Juubei yelled happily. Wormmon and Natsukimon came over to their digidestined partners smiling.

"We're getting stronger all the time!", Natsukimon said. "When can we eat?", asked Wormmon. "Let's stay here for the night", said Ken. "Oh, I saved some berries from the last time we ate", said Juubei. She produced a large sack of berries and they all sat down and proceeded to have a berry feast. Later, digimon and digidestined alike were stuffed and snoozing as night fell. Ken yawned sleepily.

"Juubei-chan?"
"Hmm?"
"You and Wormmon are my best friends."
"You're my best friend too, Ken-chan. You and Natsukimon."
"And we'll always stay together right? Always be friends?"
"Always and always and always and..." Juubei echoed Ken's yawn. "Always...always...al..." Juubei fell asleep still mumbling.

Ken yawned again and drifted off to sleep too. "Yeah, forever and forever."

They woke up the next morning, and continued walking through the jungle. Soon the jungle ended and they came to an beach. As far as they could see, there was nothing but ocean and beach, and the jungle behind them.

"Where do we go now Ken-chan?"

Before Ken could answer a man appeared before them.

"Papa!!!", Juubei ran to the man and hugged him. "Oh papa I've missed you, but Miramon digivolved and so did leafmon and this is Ken-chan my very best friend and we're having such a great adventure."

The man just looked sadly at Juubei and Ken. "Juubei, it's time for you to leave now, your destiny must take a different path."

Juubei looked horrified. "WHAT! Papa you can't mean that! I don't want to leave! I won't!! I won't!!" and she stamped her foot in the sand.

Ken just stared confused. Who was this man trying to take Juubei away?! "I won't let you!", he yelled, and ran in front of Juubei. "Get him Wormmon!"

"But Ken, I don't know..." murmured Wormmon.

"Ken, I know you can't understand now, but she HAS to leave. You will both battle the darkness, but on different battlefields. You may see each other again, if your hearts are strong enough, but only you two could make that happen." He turned to Juubei. "It's time to go."

Juubei sniffled and wiped her eyes. She hugged Ken so hard he thought his neck would break. "I'm sorry, Ken-chan." She grabbed Natsukimon and walked to her dad. As she and the man started to disappear, Ken ran towards her yelling something, but she couldn't hear it. The next thing she knew, she and Natsukimon were in on a hill overlooking Primary Village. Juubei threw herself down on the ground and cried.
