Disclaimer: No matter how much I wish for it Digimon doesn't belong to me.

Rika- "Last time on Digimon Brother of Fire, Alen awoke to the many faces of the troubled Floramon, turns out one of the evil Legendary Warriors Grumblemon was up to no good. Alen Mystic Spirit Evolved into Flamon to take the bully out, but the oversized gnome was a challenge. It looked like Grumblemon was going to win when out of the blue the Digimon Alen saved staled him long enough for Flamon to finish Grumblemon off! Whose side is she on anyway?"

T.J. *Wresting Rikumon and Calumon for last Powderpuff* "HELP ME OUT HERE RIKA"

Rika: "And why should I?"

T.J.- "Umm, if you do I'll let you know a little secret.."

Rika- "Let me hear it wannabe.."

T.J.- "First I hate being called that, second remember that Ultra Rare Card you won at that tournament a few weeks ago?"

Rika- "You mean you know where it is?!"

T.J.- "Was is the question Calumon had a little accident and its no longer much of a card now.."

Rika *Strangling Calumon* "DO YOU KNOW HOW RARE THAT CARD WAS!?!"

Calumon- "AghGH!!!"


Digimon Brother of Fire
By T.J. and Rikumon

Chapter Three
Fire's Problem and Water's Help

"Aqua Station, Sea Terminal everybody off." the Trailmon named Mole said to the sleeping Alen.

"Yyyaaaaa!" Alen yawned as he walked out of the rear car. "Thanks..... HUH EXCUSE ME?! PLEASE tell me you didn't say SEA Terminal."

"Yes, that's what I said Sea Terminal. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to be going. Bye." and with that the Pink Digimon rolled off.

Alen looked nervous as he looked at the ocean. "At least I don't have too cross it.." But just then his D-Scanner went off. "Oh no.." gulping Alen pulled out his D-Scanner and a bubble-like holograph appeared above the screen, it was a map and it was pointing out across the ocean. "You've got to be kidding me........ Ophanimon? Hello Ophanimon can you hear me?" but no answer came. "That's weird.... but now what am I going to do?" Looking about the beach, Alen found a log to sit on and look at the ocean, with a displeased look on his face Alen breath a mushroom cloud "Nuts."

Meanwhile from the entrance to the Sea Terminal by the trees, three figures stood watching Alen. "Ok hears the plain." one of them said in a deep voice.

"HEY! Who made you the boss?" the second said in a more squeaky voice.

"Shut up!" the first said.

"Now fella's lets not fight each other! After all Mercurymon said that Ranamon would go out with us if we get the kids Spirits. So lets work together." The third said in a mid-deep clicky voice.

"He's right now hears my plain, an if it doesn't work will hear yours ok?" the first said before all became whispers.

And while the three spoke to each other, Ranamon was also watching Alen from under the water. "Well Mercurymon was right, the little tikes here by my ocean.... but the little sugar looks worried, Ah wonder why?"

Alen started to fell sleepy sitting their on the log listening to the waves and gentile breez, his eyes started to get droopy Man Im so tired...... maybe I can take a nap before I figure out how to get the next Spirit. and with that, Alen got down on the sand leaned against the log pulling his goggles over his eyes. Just.. a.... few....... minute........... nap "Zzzz."

Out from the bushes an oversized grey/blue crab came walking sideways to the sleeping Alen. "Well what do you know? The kids out cold!" Crabmon said.

Following Crabmon's lead an orange/red octopus warring a pot over its face with a crown on top and welding a gun and sword in two of its tentacles "HEY! We never got to use my plain!" Octomon complained.

Then the third digimon came crawling out from the bushes. It was like a tad poll with fangs and claws "So what? Now we just take the Spirit and leave." Otamamon replied.

"Here I've got it." Crabmon reached over for Alen's D-Scanner, and took it "Now lets go before he gets up."
Their commotion however woke Alen. "Hmmm, hello...... HUH! MY D-SCANNER?!" Alen jumped up to his feet ready to fight "GIVE IT BACK!"

Octomon lifted his gun and shouted "SPURTING INK!" and it produced a black stream of ink sending Alen flying right for the water. "COME ON!"

"AAAHHHHHHH!!!" Alen shouted as he flew threw the air before he hit the water with a big splash. He sunk into the water fast, his arms and legs were flailing like mad trying to get to the surface but to no avail. NOOOOOO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO !NO! NO! GOD HELP ME! I CANT DIE NOW!!! Alen shouted in his mind, as he felt his lungs burning for fresh air. Slowly Alen's mind began to shut down, his vison hazed as he sank farther down the water Samee-san.... Ophanimon..... the digimon.... sorry..... and he passed out just as a shadowy figure appeared before him. An........ angle..?

Octomon looked at the D-Scanner in his tentacle "Are you sure that Mercurymon wanted this?"

Crabmon looked as though he were just stabbed in the back "Of corse Im sure! Why else would I grab the thing?"

Otamamon looked up around the forest area their were in now "Where is Mercurymon anyway? The sooner we give him the Spirits the better!"

Am I.... dead? Alen was afraid to open his eyes, he felt a surprising warmth around his body and it seemed that their was a lot of light poring though his eyelids. But he could still hear the water and that made him even more frightened, that is till he heard some ones voice someone he heard before.

"Ya'll staying down their all day sugar, or are ya'll going to get up?" a female voice said in a gentile but insistive tone.

Alen's eyes popped open to see the cloaked digimon standing above him, he couldn't see her face because she was standing right beneath the sun enough to shadow her face. "Did you...... save me?"

"Now of corse Ah did, ya'll don't see any one else here do ya? Are ya'll ok?"

"Ya, thank you."

"Now, what happened? I mean you took down Grumblemon and that their wimp of a mon beat you in one little ol' hit."

Alen looked down at the sand, he looked a little upset "..... look that wasn't the problem..... I..."

"Well?" she said putting her hands to her hips.
"I CANT SWIM!" Alen shouted in anger.

"... you mean.... that you lost..... because you cahhahahaahaAHAHAAAHHHAHA!" she started laughing He cant swim that's his problem? That's so silly!

"Gggrrrrrr!" Alen looked like he could hurt someone, all his life people made fun of him and their voices came rushing back into his head. What a weirdo!, FREAK!, Nut case... Then all of the sudden a new set of words from a young girls voice popped in as he listen to the digimon's laughter. Stupid head, Po po face, Orgmon teeth! and his head went low as his shoulders began to quiver.

"Hahahahahh.. .haha......ha... uh ya'll ok? Sorry. Now look Ah said...." just then she heard him...

"hahahaHAAHAHAAHAHAHA!" Alen was laughing, in fact he looked like the only reason he would cry is because he was laughing to much.

"HUH!?! Hey, what's going on?"

"Nothing haha, just that your laughing hah haha it made me feel better."

The girl digimon felt the old warmth coming up from her cheeks again, she was so surprised that she even backed off a few paces "WHAT?"

Gaining control of himself, Alen stood up smiling "Your laugh, its nice. I didn't feel mad when I heard it. I haven't heard a nice laugh like that one in years."

She was just dumbfounded now, she could barely say a word. "Th..... Th..... Th...... tha..... thha..... than....thank you."

"You welcome, thanks again for saving me. Now to take care of those creeps that stole my D-Scanner..." Alen whipped his hand to the air then down to his chest where his heart was "MYSTIC SPIRIT EVOLUTION!" he once again was encased in his flame Fractal Code and changed from a human called Alen to a Digimon named "FLAMON!" and leapt over the amazed female digimon into the forest in a mer bound.

".......... Flamon......." she said almost barely a whisper, and from under her hood she had a small smile and a pair of rose red cheeks against her normally sea-green skin.

Souring through the forest tops like a hawk, Flamon was looking about for the three digimon who attacked him. "Grrrr! Were are they?" all of the sudden his elfish ears began to twitch back and forth {Come on! Where is that jerk of Steel?} the voice of Octomon rang in his ears. Smiling mischievously Flamon turned straight for the location of the voice and found himself staring down at the three digimon who didn't notice him.

Octomon was pacing back and forth "Where is that dummy!?"

Crabmon was just standing there patiently by the furthest tree "He'll be here just wait. Its not like we're going to get in trouble."

Flamon jumped down right on top of the crustaean type digimon with all his weight into its back shell "That's where your wrong." He said still standing on Crabmon's shell crossing his arms.

"Who are you?" Octomon asked as Otamamon backed away.

"Duh, Im Flamon the Legendary Creator Warrior of Flame. Now give me back my D-Scanner unless you want to know how it fells to be Cerberusmon and Grumblemon." he replied extending his open palmed hand in Octomon's direction.

"NO WAY, SPURTING INK!" and again the hose like blast of ink came from Octomon's gun.

This time Flamon was ready, he jumped into one of the thickest tree branches above the three digimon and used it as a spring to bounce back at Octomon shouting "BABY SALAMANDER!" as his body was engulfed in flames as his fist meet Octomon's head instantly sending the digimon to Fractal Mode. Then quickly grabbing his D-Scanner that had been dropped on the ground by Octomon he faced the new Fractal Code "Creator of the sea be purified by my Flame's... FRACTAL CODE.........DIGITIZE!" he shouted as he whipped his D-Scanner across Octomon's Fractal Code and absorbing it. The digimon reverted back to its rookie level form Gomamon the little seal digimon ran off away from the stronger fighter. Flamon turned to face Crabmon and Otamamon "Give this Mercurymon a message, if he keeps this up he'll wish he have never heard of me!" then leapt away back to the beach to find an amazing sight, the ocean was split in two! Flamon didn't know what to do, that is till he saw a note on one of the palm trees that had a perfumy smell like the waters, it read..

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Creator of the Flame;

Ah've done a huge favor for ya sugar so ya better opreatcate it!

Sincerely,

Ya Jessie Bell Digimon

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Grinning, Flamon pocketed the pleasant smelling note and made a mad dash for the island that his D-Scanner told him to go.

And from a short enough distance from Flamon, Ranamon was keeping a good watch over him "Ah never said he could keep that their note...." and again the bright pind/red coloring in her cheeks appeared.

But from a darkened room far from both, a spiky shaped figure was looking into a large shield like mirror "Tis as I expected, the little betrayer of the sea's is aiding the child. We'll Me' Lady's not the only one with secrets and she shall learnith that soon."

-----------End of Chapter Three----------

Rika- "Whoa boy, looks like Alen has to fix that problem with the water if that Ranamon keeps fallowing him, and what is with that digimon anyway? To find out you gotta come back for the next chapter of Digimon Brother of Fire."

Calumon *On the ground*@_@

T.J. *Poking Calumon* "Did you have to be that rough on the little guy?"

Rika- "YES! YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO FIND A GOLIATH CARD?!?"

Rikumon- "For him about four seconds."

T.J.- "Yep."

Rika- "What???" o_o

Rikumon- "He won a bet."

Rika- "That's it, there's no catch?" o_o
