~ Chapter Two ~
Joe was up, prodding the dying embers of the fire. Cierdel was sitting opposite him, talking to Gomamon.
Matt pushed a lock of golden hair out of his eyes, stood up and went over.
She didn't even stop talking to look at Matt as he came over and sat down near the small firepit.
" So, Joe, see anything worth seeing?" he asked, careful not to reveal the least bit of attraction to Cierdel.
Joe looked up at him a bit curiously, but continued to poke at the embers.
" No, nothing. Except dark forest and huge bugs." He said darkly, scratching a red bite on his arm.
All of a sudden, Cierdel was behind him, examining the welt.
" Don't scratch it. I don't know very much about healing, but I know if you want it to heal, you have to keep the juices in the welt." She said.
Joe simply stared at her as she sat down again. Matt felt a twang of jealousy, because she hated him and seemed to like Joe.
Jeez, the guy wasn't even interesting! And yet, she smiled at him gently from across the fire where she'd resumed her place.
Joe looked shocked, like an animal in the face of a predator that was smiling to show it's razor-sharp teeth.
But the awkward silence was broken by Tai yawning loudly as he stretched, waking up.
Agumon woke up a second later, a small tongue of flame escaping his mouth as he yawned like a cat.
Gabumon was next, a bit hurt that Matt hadn't woke him up with him.
" Hey Matt! How's it goin'?" he asked, scratching a big bug bite on his arm.
As the sun continued to rise in the early morning mist, the others woke up. Mimi and Palmon were last.
" So, what're we doing today?"
" I would've thought you'd know, Mimi. After all, we've done the same thing since we came here!" Izzy pointed out.
" I'm tired of walking! I want to rest for a day!" Mimi whined.
" We can't rest for a day, Mimi! We have to get as far away from Etemon as we can!" Palmon reminded her, tugging on the pink sleeve of Mimi's dress.
Mimi just 'humphed', and then went silent for a second. Then she had a revelation.
" We could ride!" she exclaimed, happy with herself for finding such an easy mode of transportation.
" Mimi, do you see any form of transportation? Other than your Digimon, there are only your feet. Besides, it'll make you stronger."
Cierdel intervened as she slid over on the log, escaping a shaft of light beside her.
Matt thought it was a bit strange of her to do so, but he kept quiet. So, with that debate done and finished with, Gabumon used his Blue Blaster to put it out, and then the Digidestined piled dirt, sand, and dust over the ashes.
Cierdel came along with them, again, though was careful not to step into any sunlight, dancing around in the shadows.
Matt noticed, as they trekked and chattered, that although she kept up, it looked awfully hard to when she was springing around in the shade.
At one point, she leapt up into the branches, where it was so dark that he couldn't see anything, and he was afraid she'd been hurt, but then she came right back down.
" What a show-off!" Sora murmured to Tai, " No wonder Matt doesn't seem to like her!" he nodded absent-mindedly, seeing the look of seeming-indifference that Matt had on his face.
Suddenly, a stomp to everyone's left which made everyone stop dead, and a big, metal covered head poked over the trees.
" Ugh, talk about dragon breath!" Gomamon joked, waving a claw in front of his face.
" That's because it's a dragon Digimon. A Champion." Cierdel explained as she bent her knees and prepared to push off the ground. " Don't worry. I can dispose of him." She said.
Matt couldn't believe his ears.
" One moment here. You don't have a Digivice, you don't have a crest or tag, and you don't have a Digimon. How, may I ask, will you even stand a chance against that monster?!" Matt asked, sounding ruder than he'd intended to be.
" Just watch me, Day, just watch me. I'll show you how it's done." She pushed off the ground, and flew up into the air, right towards the monsters nose . . . .

So how was that? It gets a bit better as we go on, and in the next chapter, we find out how on the Digital Plane Cierdel is going to stop this thing. And for all you out there, this Digimon is NOT part of my little fantasies, it is a D-mon made up by whoever makes up the Digimon names.
