Nomon Is An Island

Lexxy was walking, while carrying DemiNomon, down a sandy path nearest the water. Every now and then Lexxy would turn her head and look toward the water, as if expecting something to appear.

"Lexxy?"

"Yeah?"

"Why do you keep looking at the water like that?" asked DemiNomon.

"I don't know. It's as if I feel something or someone out there that we have accidentally left behind."

"Do you want to go back? Because we can. If you want to." stated the Digimon.

"Yeah, we're not in any hurry to get anywhere, so lets go." said Lexxy as she took off her shoes, rolled up her pants, and stepped into the water. "Ugh, mud again."

DemiNomon sped ahead jumping out of the water now and then. "So what or who do you think we left behind?"

"I'm not sure. Maybe it's the Digivice." she paused realizing just how ridiculous this sounded. "No I'm sorry, that's absurd."

"Maybe not. Perhaps if you closed your eyes and concentrated really hard, you could FEEL your way to the Digivice! Try it!" encouraged DemiNomon.

"Oh, OK." agreed Lexxy. "I'll give it a shot." So she closed her eyes and began walking in the direction that felt the most comforting. She fell into an almost trance, almost being able to see the Digivice, bright and welcoming, like the sun at dawn. She continued toward this warm and comforting feeling, until the shrill cry of DemiNomon broke her concentration.

"LEXXY! WATCH OUT BEHIND YOU!" screamed DemiNomon. "GIZAMON! RUN!"

"What's a Gizaaaa!" she stopped mid-sentence as a heavy, wet Digimon hit her full in the back, knocking her head first into the mud. Seven others surrounded her and prepared to launch an attack. "What the heck!? DemiNomon!"

"I'm coming Lexxy! I'm coming!" DemiNomon screamed. "Water spout!" she yelled, and a jet of water came out of her mouth. This only angered the Gizamon, who turned to attack DemiNomon first. "I'm running Lexxy! I'm running!" she yelled wildly trying to escape her attackers.

"Hey you! Yeah you, uglies! Why don't you pick on someone your own size!?" said Lexxy standing up wielding a reed. The Gizamon turned on her, four going after DemiNomon, and the rest after Lexxy. "Uh-oh. Bad idea, bad idea, bad idea ... !" she said as she ran and dropped the reed into the water.

Cornered against a rock, she then turned on the group and let out a long yell as she kicked one of the Gizamon on the chin, causing it exploded into data. Lexxy covered her mouth, and stared wide eyed at the disappearing cloud of data. She had no time, though, for thinking, as the other three greedily absorbed their comrade's data, leaving themselves vulnerable to attack. She recognized this and, grabbing a few rocks from the river bed she was able to defeat the last three, dispersing their data. DemiNomon wasn't doing as well though. The last four Gizamon saw the red cloud of data and quickly absorbed it, making them Digivolve into Gesomon.

"Oh no." wailed DemiNomon, as she saw the towering monstrosities before her. She decided now was time to swim away as fast as her tail would take her, which wasn't fast enough, unfortunately. The first Gesomon picked her up, and held her above his mouth, but was stopped by the second, who wanted to eat her for himself. Their fighting gave Lexxy time enough to get over there.

"Hey! I have an idea, give her to me!" she shouted up at the four quarreling Digimon. All four of them turned on her and dropped DemiNomon, deciding they wanted to eat her instead.

"RUN LEXXY RUN! NOW!" screamed DemiNomon.

"No! I won't leave you!" she screamed back. Suddenly a bright yellow glow came from the reeds nearby.

"DemiNomon Digivolve to ... Nomon!" suddenly a beautiful mermaid Digimon was in the place of DemiNomon. She had a long sandy colored face and upper body with arms. On her head was the traditional red gem which held three white feathers tipped with red. Her long ears were also tipped with red, a short, yet thin, torso, and a tail was a green-blue color with light blue fins at the end. Around her neck was a circlet of silver. "Poison feather darts!" she screamed, unleashing a cascade of white feathers tipped with a poison at one end, and red paint at the other. They stuck in the pale skin of the Gesomon, and with a horrible wail, they all dissolved into data. Nomon absorbed their data turning it blue. Lexxy ran over to Nomon.

"Why did you do that?!" Lexxy demanded, rather than asked, seemingly oblivious to the new form of the Digimon.

"What? Save your life?" questioned Nomon, who was still panting from the battle.

"No I mean absorb their ... what ever that was, blood. Why did you do that?"

"It was their data, all Digimon do that. It's how we get stronger."

"Well I don't want you doing it. You are too good to be doing something that those mindless killing machines do. Never again Nomon, understand?!" yelled Lexxy, her hands clenched in rage and fear.

"But I can't get stronger unless I absorb their data, that's how I can protect you!" said Nomon beginning to become impatient.

"Well, then next time we bump into nasty Digimon we'll run! Is that so hard?!"

"Yes when there's eight or nine or one hundred of them chasing us!" Yelled Nomon.

"Well if you insist upon being so stubborn, there won't be an 'us' next time!" yelled Lexxy back.

"Fine then! If you don't want to be protected, then go off on your own! I don't need you!"

"FINE! I'm going to try and find another Digimon that doesn't ACT LIKE A BARBARIAN!"

"FINE! From now on, I'm on my own!"

"FINE!"

"Humans are so dumb!"

And with that human and Digimon went their separate ways, Lexxy going back to shore, Nomon going upstream. But unnoticed by both was a softly shining yellow Digivice, slowly making its way downstream, with three of its six lights lit.

======

"I'm going to call Mel. I want to see how far she's gotten." said Caleb. Then he said, holding the Digivice, "And I wonder if she's found that yellow Digivice yet."

"No Caleb don't!" yelled Esmon. "Remember, Mel said that the Digivices are only to be used in an emergency. Besides, you can just see where she is on the map." He said smiling.

"Yeah, but it's not the same as actually talking to her." sulked Caleb as he accessed the Map. "Hey. look at that." he said. "The yellow Digivice is going really fast." I wonder who has that one."

"Oh no! Look! It's about to go over a waterfall! The human and Digimon might be in trouble!" wailed Esmon.

"I'd classify this as an emergency!" said Caleb zooming in on the nearest colored dot, Mel and Pugimon.

======

"Mel! Come in Mel!" said Caleb through the Digivice.

"I'm here." said Mel.

"Listen. There's a yellow Digivice moving downstream very quickly. The person and Digimon could be in some kind of trouble. It's already gone over a rather large waterfall." said Caleb.

"All right, I'm on it Caleb. Double time Pugimon!" said Mel to her Digimon partner.

"Over and out Melon. And hurry!" he said closing the connection.

"It wasn't moving before!" said Mel with exasperation heavy in her voice. "Do you know of anything that we can use to move faster Pugimon?"

"Well ... " She said with a smile.

"Too fast! Too fast! Too fast!" yelled Mel, hugging the driver close.

"Hey Mon, you said you wanted a fast ride to the river and here is!" said the rough looking Beelzemon. The three of them were riding on Beelzemon's motor bike, zooming through the woods at least 80 miles per hour. "And I can't breath! How's about letting loose your death hold there eh?"

"Oh, heh heh heh ... sorry." said Mel.

A little while later they were at the river bank. While Mel was hugging the ground, Pugimon was thanking the driver. "Ah, your welcome. Anytime for a fellow Mon, right?" he said smiling. Mel looked up to see the battle hardened Digimon actually smiling.

"Well how's about that." She mused to herself. "Uh, yes thank you Beelzemon!" she said standing up quickly and bowing. "I'm sorry we have nothing to pay with."

"Like I said, it's OK, I know you would do the same for me right?"

"Right!" said Mel and Pugimon unison. "Good by Beelzemon! And thank you again!" They said as they waved good by.

"Nice Digimon." commented Mel, smiling.

"Yeah, he looks like a big tough guy on the out side, but inside he's all soft and kind." said Pugimon smiling up at her human partner.

"Now about that Digivice."

======

"I hate the dark, I hate the dark, I hate the daaark!" said Rosie closing her eyes tight and stopping where she was. "Myokimon, I don't think I can continue in this dark. Can't we go back? Please?"

"Look, if we want to get to the mountain, we have to go through this wood. It's the fastest way I know of to get there."

"Hmm, OK. If only this stupid Digivice could help." she said looking at the map. Their dot seemed so far away from the mountain, and the others. "Stupid mountain!" she yelled hitting the Digivice with her fist, as if that would bring it closer to them. "I wish we were there now!" suddenly the Digivice began beeping and a red beam of light shot out of the top of the Digivice toward the mountain. "Aaa! Hey, I guess this light will guide us through the forest!"

"Stupid light. I hate light." thought Myokimon.

"Let's go!" shouted Rosie. With that, a red ball of light surrounded the human and Digimon, lifting them off of the ground, and zooming forwards. Rosie looked around in surprise, then pure excitement. "All right! No more walking!"

"Damn, this ruins everything ... " thought Myokimon, less than thrilled to be leaving the forest.

As human and Digimon zoomed along in the sphere, two glowing eyes peered out from behind them from the underbrush, and a voice whispered, "Traitor ... "
