About fifteen minutes later, I had come to a large building. It was covered
it silver... But a few places were ripped off, showing stone. A few even
showing the inside... I walked over to one of those places, but I saw
nothing but darkness... There were flames on the wall, only giving light
for that much. There was one flame right next to the hole he was looking
in, so he glanced over. It showed drawings... Carved in the stone. I walked
back to the front and pushed on the large stone doors, but they didn't
budge. I was still cold.
"O-open already..!" I said to no one.
"Do you beleive in me, like I beleive in you?" I heard the voice from earlier speak.
"Yes! I do!" I yelled out. The doors opened slowly, and I walked in slowly, looking around. Then they closed behind me and I jumped.
"Do not fear anything, Sean. You're safe here," the voice spoke again. I nodded, not being afraid anymore. It was warm in here. The few holes in the wall let snow through, making it wet in some places I walked. But, nonetheless, I walked forward into the darkness...

I wandered through the halls... I was getting a bit scared again. I tried to forget fear by looking at the walls and talking to myself. "That looks like... A goat," I said to myself, looking at a picture by a flame.
"That is Goatmon, and Armor Digimon," the voice told me. "He is fighting Digmon, another Armor, in the ancient times." I looked up, knowing nothing was there.
"And... What's a Digimon?" I asked.
"Digimon are creatures that live in this world. They can be small and kind, or large and vicious. They have all gotten a bit feirce, since He came."
"'He'? Who is he?"
"He... We don't even know His name. We call him either 'He' or 'Dark Lord.' He appeared in the ancient times, and caused Digimon to want to fight. His dibolical plan -- take over every world there is. That is why you, Azalea, and Jeff are here. I'll explain everything later."
"Okay..." With that, I continued walking.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
About fifteen minutes later, I stopped, noticing the lights starting to dim as I walked. Then, I heared screams echo everywhere. "Wh-what is that!?"
"Those... Those are the cries of the Fallen."
"The Fallen...?"
"Yes. The Digimon who either weren't powerful enough for Him, or the ones that died trying to serve Him. It's sad, since He was controlling him. It wasn't their fault..."
"It is..."
"We call them... The Fallen, in their honor and rememberance. We set up six tombs when He left. One in the North, the one you are in, the South, the East, the West, and one on each island. Death Island, and Birth Island. They were here to honor the Fallen, called the 'Shrines of the Fallen'."
"Wait up... If He left, then why are we here?"
"He left about six-hundred years ago. Although... He has now returned. Ten years ago He returned. Now, we have lost power in His return, and we cannot fight. So we have called upon you."
"Six years ago...?"
"Yes. Every ten years, three gates open. So we had to wait. He came back in the last opening, and sealed the three gates with a powerful magic. So, we had to wait ten years before calling upon you. It will be twenty years before you get home, though..."
"I don't care."
"You don't..?"
"No. I have to honor the Fallen! I have to avenge them!"
"Hm... I see... Well, your friends are probably hearing the same thing now. Continue to the Fallen's Tomb."
That didn't sound so good... But, I kept walking into the darkner darkness...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later, it was completely pitch-black, and I stopped. "Where am I...?" I felt in front of me. It was stone... And there were also engravings on it... Then, the light appeared behind me again, lighting in up. I quickly backed up. "Whooooa...." I slowly looked up. It was two large, stone doors. They were at least four yards tall! And the large picture enrgaved in it... It was... Something of an angel! It had armor all over it, it looked like. And had four wings on its back. It carried a long spear, and a sheild.
"This is... Me."
"You!?" I asked quickly.
"Yes. I am one of the Fallen." The light went into the stone picture, and it glowed. "Come into my tomb. With your will power, I can be revived." The doors opened, and I went in without hesitation. This time, the doors stayed open. I saw a tomb to my right, and an altar in front of me. I walked to the altar, and looked up.
"What do I do...?"
"I am Areimon. I led the Fallen in the war against His army. This is a shrine honoring me, and the Fallen I led. I was destroyed by one of His troops... I am the Fallen one of War."
"I see... I'll revive you! We'll work together!" I yelled as I held my hand up. "Fallen Warrior, Revive!!" I felt a light surround me. It was silver, like the beam I went into earlier. I noticed to door to the tomb fly open with a strong wind, which surrounded me, and the whole tomb lit up. It was, on the outside, healed over - as in the ancient times. It was once again covered in silver, inside and out. "Kyaaaa...!!" I yelled out, as silver armor covered me, a spear attached to one arm. The other held a shield, which was clipped onto my forearm. I had a helmet now, and heavy boots. Bright, silver wings shot out of my back, and I flapped them once. I looked myslef over, everything shining... It was great! I felt a power surging through me... And my arms were bigger, too! And... Everything! "I'm... Areimon!"
The voice of Aerimon laughed a little, and this time, his voice was calming, but more powerful. "Yes, you are. And I am Sean. We are as one."
"Wow..."
"Shall we find your friends now? ... Our friends?"
I nodded and smiled. "Yeah!" The light in the temple all left it, and went to us, shooting a beam up into the sky. I disappeared all at once.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"This..." Aerimon later said. "This is the temple of the Fallen one of Strong Peace, or Fallen Peacemaker."
"Wow... It looks like the other used to."
"Yes, it does. There were six leaders that led the Fallen in the war. Myself, Taurumon, Virgamon, Aquariamon, Saggitarmon, and Caprimon. This is the Shrine of Taurumon."
"Hmmm... Sounds like the zodiac."
"Well, if this is where we were sent, it should be..." Just then, a huge explosion of golden light shot from the shrine, covering it in gold on the outside, like with Areimon's shrine. Out of the light came a large bull- like creature, glaring at us.
"Taurumon..?" I asked, seeing if he knew us. He simply snorted and glared at me more. "Which one of my friends do you have...?"
"O-open already..!" I said to no one.
"Do you beleive in me, like I beleive in you?" I heard the voice from earlier speak.
"Yes! I do!" I yelled out. The doors opened slowly, and I walked in slowly, looking around. Then they closed behind me and I jumped.
