HALLO EVERYONE!

I am back for the ninth chapter… it is ninth right? *checks chapters* Yeah ninth. And thank you for the reviews! I knew the cliff hanger would work a bit!

I am back with my terrible writing to bring you the next chapter of The digidestined and the sword of belief! I'm actually sticking to schedule. I may even be ahead of schedule! :3 I'm breaking habits of procrastination!

One thing about this chapter is it will be a part of the episode "Sub Zero Ice Punch" But Hunter will have her own adventure before meeting up with Matt and Tai. The reason im not putting her with TK is because, well, that would be way too obvious to do. She's not with Izzy because… Of epic action to come in later chapters resulting from her being with Matt and Tai.

Anyways, to give you relief from the cliff hanger from last chapter

ON WITH THE STORY!

I groan in pain as my eyes flutter open from my dreamless sleep. The first thing I see is a dark black and starry sky. I sit up and hold my head, which feels like it's throbbing. "What happened?" I ask out loud as I look around in confusion.

The ocean stands in front of me, chunks of ice were floating in the water. I am sitting on an icy and snow- covered shore of an island. Behind me is a large forest with large hills and mountains. None of it looked familiar.

Wha- Where… Am I? I think as I try to stand up, only to have my legs fail me and I land face first in the freezing snow. Another groan escapes me as I sit up again, shivering violently. I glance around again and see something sticking out of the snow just a bit.

I pick up the snow covered, black tank top, gloves, and shoes with a grin. At least I don't have to go with out these. I think happily, putting each article of clothing. After I pull my black shirt over my head a glint of light next to me catches my eye. Next to me, lying on the ground, is the sword.

The sword was a dark and dull color. Where it's laying, the snow melted in a six inch radius around it, leaving a silhouette on the ground. On the hilt, the symbol was dark and grey. It looked like all the energy and any color it had was sucked out of it. Just like how I feel right now.

I pick it up and examine it carefully, trying to remember what happened. It's all really hazy. The last thing I remember clearly was devimon making the building disappear…

THE BUILDING! MY FRIENDS! CRAP!

I almost trip again as I jump up from my spot on the ground. Man, I feel like I've been hit with a bus. But that doesn't matter right now! I need to find the others. Maybe they can tell me what happened.

"Hello!?" I yell in the direction of the forest after I turn around, "Anybody there!? Tai! Matt! Izzy!" I manage to get myself moving forward, calling out into the dark aimlessly. Fighting my exhaustion and fatigue so I could find my friends

I continue walking for what seems like hours until I reach the bottom of a cliff and have to stop and rest. A little while ago it started to storm and it was so hard to see. Sighing, I sit down right up next to the rocky wall. I don't think I can go on for much longer I think as I pull my knees to my chest.

My eyes start to get heavy and my mind gets foggy as each second passes. Right before I fall asleep, a growl comes from the trees. Two red, glowing dots appear from the darkness. They grow bigger as the figure they belong to creeps closer. It was a bit hard to see through the storm but I could see enough.

My mind finally snaps awake as the figure roars and pounces out at me. I launch myself to the ground on the right and just barely dodge the large white claw. Can't I get a break from this for ONE day? My eyes go wide as I scramble to get out of the figure trying to tackle me to the ground. Apparently not.

Finally I manage to get up and get a good look at the beast attacking me. It resembled a Siberian tiger, but larger and with more spikes. The stripes on its back are dark blue and its coat is mainly white. Its small main had about seven spikes sticking out in a fan-like form. On its knees and elbows were short spikes. But the biggest of all of these bones were its teeth. Two large canines were sticking out the sides of its mouth, making it resemble that of a sabertooth tiger. A long tail swishes menacingly behind him. Imbedded in its chest is a black gear.

My hand goes to the sword in my belt loop. Before I could even try to actually grab it, I have to duck out of the way of the digimon again. I start to run and take out the sword at the same time… Of course the laws of physics didn't help me in this situation.

"Saber Bite!" I hear behind me and I turn my head just enough to see the blue light coming straight at me. Without thinking twice I use the sword to cut the belt loop, ultimately freeing the sword from its restraint. With barely a second to spare I manage to block the incoming attack from actually hitting me.

The sword starts to glow. It was as if it is absorbing the attack. I can't figure it out, but it feels like I'm getting more energy from it. Almost as if the sword is transferring the energy from the attack and putting it in me.

Either way, I feel ten times stronger and way more energized than before. I turn to the large digimon glaring at me and point my sword at him. "Bring it, Fluffy" A growl escapes the digimon as he charges at me, raising a claw, "Ice Scrape!"

I dodge the claw and bring the sword up to hit the black gear in the digimon's chest. It manages to crack it before the weight of the digimon forces me to the ground. The sound of the gear breaking into bits of data fill my ears and I sigh in relief.

"Where- w-Where am I?" The digimon on top of me says.

"Currently… On top of me…" My voice is muffled by the digimon's fur, "Now please… Get off me."

"Oh, I'm terribly sorry." He says and gets up, giving me some room. I sit up, trying to spit out some fur. "Are you okay?"

"If you call being cold, hungry, confused, lost, and just attacked being okay." I tell him sarcastically.

"Were you the one that destroyed that annoying black gear?" The digimon asks. I nod in reply. "Thank you and… I'm sorry if I hurt you at all." I bat my hand in dismissal.

"That's okay. I'm fine, it wasn't you're fault." I reassure him. He bends his front legs almost as if bowing.

"I'm Sabormon. I live in these cold forests." Sabormon looks at me, "Who are you?"

"My name's Hunter." I reply with a smile, which he returns. "Hey Sabormon?"

"Yes?"

"Have you seen any other kids? People, like me." I point to myself to emphasize my point. Sabormon stands up and nods.

"Yes. A boy with a Gabumon landed in the middle of the forest a while ago." He replies. Immediately I jump up.

"Matt!" I yell happily. "Sabormon, could you show me where they landed?"

"It's the least I could do after what you did for me. Besides…" He waves his tail in a circle, "It wouldn't be right to just leave you out in a blizzard like this." He kneels down on all fours, "Get on."

I happily hop onto his back and hold onto his fur as he walks off into the treeline, heading straight to the middle of the forest.

"MATT!" I yell, seeing the passed out figure on the ground. Immediately I jump off Sabormon's back and run to the blonde's side, "Matt… Come on, please don't be dead…" I mumble as I pull him out of the snow, sighing as I see his breath let out in puffs of cold air.

"…Oh Matt will be so disappointed." A familiar voice says from close by. A gasp follows, "Hunter!.. Matt! What are you doing out!?"

"Gabumon." I let Gabumon pick up his partner.

"I told him not to leave the cave." Gabumon explains, "Is he okay?"

"He's still breathing." I tell him, "But he may be suffering from hypothermia."

"Hypo- what? Oh, nevermind that! We need to get him back somewhere warm!" Gabumon looks at me frantically. I look up at Sabormon.

"Do you think you could give us a lift?" I ask him. In response he bends down, letting Gabumon and I load the unconscious boy on his back. "Thank you."

Gabumon and I sit at Matt's side next to the fire in the cave where they had been residing in before. Across the cave Sabormon is curled up and sleeping. I had taken my tank top off and warmed it up over then fire. Then put it on Matt's forehead. "He's freezing… If we don't warm him up, there's a chance he might not make it."

"But how? All I have is my own fur and…" I raise an eyebrow at him as realization dawns his face. "That's it… but…"

"It's okay Gabumon. I promise I won't look." I reassure and turn away. "I'll even go across the cave and lay on the other side of Sabormon so I can't see you." To prove it I walk over to the designated spot and sit myself down.

"Okay then… I'll do it for Matt." I hear the sound of fur russelling then settling as Gabumon takes off his fur.

"He'll be feeling better soon, I promise." I call out quietly so I don't wake the large digimon up. Then, I settle back and use Sabormon as a small pillow. I hope he doesn't mind… I think as I close my eyes. Maybe now I can actually get some sleep. My mind starts to wander as I drift off into another dreamless sleep.

I wake up to the bright sunlight shining in through the cave entrance. The first thing I hear is Matt's shivering and groaning as he wakes up. Then the sound of Gabumon retrieving his fur.

"G-Gabumon. You took off your fur for me." I hear Matt say, "W-wel- er- Thanks."

"Yeah, uh, it's good to see you're up and feeling- ACHOO!" I giggle at Gabumon's sneezing and get up. Which in turn earns the attention of Matt.

"Hunter when did you…" I interrupt him as I grab my black shirt.

"You passed out in the middle of the blizzard. Sabormon and I found you right before Gabumon did ad brought you back here." I explain as I pull the shirt over my head.

"Sabormon?" He turns his head to the large digimon who was just waking up. "Woah! You're friends with him!?"

"Yeah!" I laugh, "I helped him out with a maintenance problem. A gear was imbedded in his chest." Before we could continue Gabumon sneezes again.

"Gabumon-" Matt stands up, "You kept me all warm but you caught my cold… Bet you look pretty funny with no fur on Gabumon. Hehe thanks."

"No problem." Gabumon rubs the back of his head.

"Hey Matt! Gabumon!" We hear a faint voice call from outside the cave.

"It's Tai and Agumon they're her- ACHOO!" When Gabumon stops sneezing we run outside, with Sabormon following close behind.

"Matt! Gabumon!" Tai and Agumon call.

"Tai! Agumon!" Matt, Gabumon and I reply.

"Hunter! You're here too!" Tai yells happily as the three of us join hands like little kids would (A/N: Notice at this part in the show Matt and Tai look like a couple… Just sayin') I thought We'd never find you guys." We back up from each other, "It sure is a good thing we met up with Frigimon."

"Frosty the snowmon here?" Matt asks.

"Yup this is him." Tai replies, "He happened to see you and Gabumon fall on this island and then he got us here in no time."

"Sub Zero Ice puch ya know?" The large snowman digimon mutters.

"Same with my friend Sabormon here." I add, pointing a thumb at the tiger digimon. Matt pushes past Tai and I to Sabormon and Frigimon.

"Did you happen to see anyone else?" Matt asks.

"No, when it rains kids I usually notice." Frigimon answers.

"Sorry, Blondie. All I saw was you and her…" Sabormon jabs his head in my direction.

"Three were the only people who ended up here. If there are more of you they must be on the other islands. Matt looks at the ground sadly.

"Poor TK…" Tai and I pat him on the back.

"Don't worry, we'll find him." Tai reassures him.

"TK's one strong kid." I add happily. Gabumon sneezes again.

"Hey, watch it dude." Agumon tells him.

"Sorry about that. I am not used to having a cold." Gabumon sneezes yet again.

"A cold eh? I have an idea… Sabormon, do you…?" Frigimon turns to Sabormon.

"Mmm-hmm. Come on." They both turn around and start walking away.

"Hey, don't go. You can't catch his cold guys, you already are!"Tai yells after him as Gabumon continues sneezing. Tai turns to the sick digimon. "How'd you get sick, you're the one with the fur around here."

"Long story." I say as Matt grabs Tai's arm.

"Hey, stop making fun of him, leave him alone Tai!" Matt snaps at him.

"Why don't you chill out Matt, I was only trying to see how we could help him." Tai shoots right back at the boy. Gabumon sneezes violently, causing Agumon to help him back into the cave to rest. Tai turns back to matt after watching the digimon go. "We have to decide what we're going to do next."

"I agree. We need a plan." I cross my arms.

"Well isn't it obvious, we have to go search for all the others." Matt says like the answer is the most obvious thing in the world. Which it is.

"Yeah, right. But how are we supposed to do that? You heard what Frigimon said. Everyone landed on different islands." Tai states, "Unless you've got an airplane stashed around here somewhere I think we're stuck." Matt turns away with a HMPH and crosses his arms like a stubborn child.

"Then I guess we'll ask Frigimon for help." The sarcasm in Matt's voice pisses me off to no end.

"Matt, stop acting like a child." I snap, "You know just as well as I do that they're scattered far away. Frigimon can't do that much!"

"Then I guess I'll have to make a raft out of some of these trees OKAY!?" He snaps right back at me. Tai puts his hands on Matt's shoulders.

"Matt calm down okay? What's eating you dude? We're on your side. We'll help you get off this island if we have to build surfboards OKAY!?" Tai takes his hands off Matt's shoulders as Matt looks away, "Look, the others will be fine without us for now, we gotta focus on the real deal." A second of silence passes.

"Real deal?" Matt's voice is a lot quieter than before and I don't really think that's a good thing.

"What? I gotta spell it out for you?" Tai turns away with his hands on his hips. Which also pisses me off. God, why do I have to be stuck on an island with these two! I would rather have to deal with Izzy typing away at his computer than listen to these two argue. "We've gotta know if this island is moving towards that place Devimon talked about before Hunter shot him." Before wha- Oh, I remember that ray of light came out of the sword before I passed out.

"That's not the real deal!" Matt snaps. He grabs the collar of Tai's shirt, "There's nothing more real than our friends." He shoves him backwards. "And finding them, and getting us all back home safely. And don't you ever forget it. You wanna ditch your friends to go look for some faraway land go ahead but I'm not coming!" He holds up his fist confidently, "I'll find TK! I'll find all of them! By myself!" Then he just turns on his heel and runs. Don't I get a say in this!? No! Okay then!

"Matt! Get back here!" I scream after him.

"Come on, don't freak out on us." Tai chases after him. I sigh in defeat, those idiots couldn't create a compromise if their lives depended on it. But, ultimately, I find myself following them either way. When I catch up to them Tai is on the ground and Matt is standing over him.

"You haven't got a clue how I feel Tai! You're acting like such a Jerk!" Matt yells at him… What have I missed here?

"Who are you calling a jerk, JERK!" Tai tackles Matt to the ground.

"Tai, stop that." Agumon scolds worriedly. (A/N: Confusing but that's how it sounded…)

"You have to work together guys, stop fighting!" Gabumon yells as they brawl on the ground. I stomp up to them angrily and kick their sides, or what I think is their sides. Don't judge me they're asking for it.

"BOTH OF YOU NEED TO SIT DOWN SHUT UP AND THINK OF A COMPROMISE!" I scream, but only as both of them go tumbling down the side of a hill from my kick. Oops… didn't mean to do that… hehe. Of course neither notices until they reach the edge of a cliff. I skid down the hill after them, "GUYS! GET AWAY FROM THE CLIFF!" As soon as I say that the part they're on gives way and they go over the edge. Gabumon and Agumon come up behind me as I look over the cliff to see Tai hanging onto a branch and Matt.

I follow Gabumon and Agumon as they climb down the side of the cliff to help them. "I'm so tired and hungry that I don't have any strength left at all." Agumon states.

"We'd be okay if I could just digivolve into Garurumon." Gabumon looks down at the three of us but then sneezes. I hear another yell from the top of the cliff.

"Hey look its Mojyamon."

"That's him but he has a black gear inside him."

"For once can I get some good news?" I yell.

"Well its not storming!" Agumon replies.

"Not what I meant!"

"ICE CLOUD!" I hear from the top of the cliff. The rock starts to crumble beneath us, causing us all to scream in fear as Mojyamon laughs (A/N: If you watch Tai and Matt are holding hands…lol :3)

I close my eyes and brace for the impact of the ground but am instead met with yells of surprise, a bit of pain and a soft landing. I open my eyes and see I just landed and bounced off of Sabormon's head while Matt and Tai landed and bounced off of Frigimon's head.

"Ugh.. It's raining kids and digimon again. I'm gonna have to start carrying an umbrella." Frigimon says as he sits up.

"You've got that right. Better make it a steel umbrella with how heavy they are." Sabormon adds.

"Thank you Frigimon and Sabormon." We all thank in unison.

"Good timing." Matt compliments

"Without you we'd be flat as pancakes." Tai exclaims happily.

"You'd of had to scrape up off the ground." I add as they both stand up.

"Well next time try not to land on our heads." Frigimon tells us. He holds out some berries while Sabormon holds some kind of grass-like plant in his paw. "Here, we brought some food."

"Excellent, let's eat." Tai jumps up and grabs the berries out of Frigimon's hand. Agumon stands next to him with some other weird vegetable.

"It's good and tasty too." I pick up a fruit off the ground and carefully bite into it. My eyes widen at the sweetness. This is the best thing I've ever tasted, though I may just be saying that because I haven't eaten for two days.

Sabormon holds out the grass to Gabumon, "An old cold remedy." Gabumon takes it happily, "Actually it's a good remedy for just about anything." As soon as the plant is in Gabumon's mouth he almost pukes with how bad it is.

"What is it?" I ask with my mouth full.

"Catnip. It's good for anything." Sabormon replies. Hmm… Good to know.

As the four of us start to dig into the food we are greeted by another yell. Mojyamon jumps behind Frigimon and Sabormon, causing Matt, Tai, Gabumon, Agumon, and I to run away yelling. Oretty wimpy but hey, we were exhausted. "Let us handle this." Frigimon and Sabormon turn around to face the large digimon.

The fight didn't last long as Frigimon threw Mojyamon into the mountain, then Mojyamon throwing Frigimon into Sabormon. "Boomerang bone!" We all dive for cover as he threw the large and misshaped bone at us. Then, get up when the boomerang flies back into Mojyamon's hand.

"Nice trick Mojyamon, now watch ours!" Tai says as the keening from his device starts.

"Agumon digivolve to… Greymon."

"Gabumon digivolve to… Garurumon." Mojyamon throws his bone at the charging wolf digimon. Wow. Some digimon really don't think things through. To no surprise of mine Garurumon catches it in his mouth.

"That's it Garurumon." Matt encourages as his partner snaps the bone with his teeth.

"Go Greymon!" Tai cheers

"Nova Blast!" the yeti digimon dodges the fireball and kicks Greymon in the face.

"You're not playing nice!" Garurumon growls at the digimon. Just as he does that, Frigimon holds onto Mojyamon's legs while Sabormon holds onto Mojyamon's legs so he couldn't move.

"Now Greymon, aim for the black gear!" Frigimon tells him.

"Nova Blast!" Mojyamon lets out a yell as the fireball hits the gear dead on. The sheer force of it knocks back all three digimon into the cliff. Tai starts to dance around like an idiot when the gear disperses into little bits of data.

My attention was actually more on Mojyamon shrinking back to his normal size and the large mound of black gears right behind him. "There, back to good old Mojyamon size… Garurumon what are you looking at?" Apparently Garurumon also saw the gears and he blasts them with his blue fire. Destroying most of the gears.

The black gears stop their movement when the two digimon return to their usually state of being Agumon and Gabumon. Mojyamon looks at us confused, "Woah, I feel like ive been run over by a monochromon." He stands up.

"You were being controlled by a black gear Mojyamon." Agumon starts to explain.

"That's right. The fight wasn't your fault." Gabumon adds. I walk up behind them.

"Yeah. Luckily no one got seriously hurt." I explain happily.

"The same thing happened to me and Sabormon." Frigimon picks up Mojyamon and puts him on his shoulder. "Its okay though."

"This doesn't change anything Tai and Hunter." Matt catches me off guard by his sudden speech. "We still have to go find the others." Before anyone could respond, the black gears started to spark. Once they were done they were all fixed.

"The black gears fixed themselves." Agumon states the obvious.

"It must be devimon." Gabumon joins in pointing out the obvious.

"The island's moving again." Matt you too? Seriously?

Tai runs to find a clearing where he could get a good view, "We're moving alright. The other way. Back towards Infinity Mountain." Matt and I come up on his left and Right as he looks through his telescope.

"And devimon." Matt adds.

"If that's true then there's no time for us to be fighting." Tai says, turning to Matt.

"You shouldn't be fighting at all!" I scream, waving my arms around frantically. They both laugh nervously as I glare at them.

"No stinking gears are gonna stop us." Tai, Matt, and I put our hands together.

"Yeah. Together we're gonna be all right." Matt says.

"We'll find the others and make devimon pay." I say as we look towards the mountain of our destination…

Let's do this.

Done a few days early!

Boo ya!

Sorry, I was gonna finish this Wednesday but my friend had a few problems and broke a REALLY big promise, then I got sick yesterday and im going through yet ANOTHER growth spurt. Geez… Life hates me.

Well, this chapter is a little short and a bit rushed but that's because Ive gotta hurry and get to episode thirty four. (you know why…. :3)

QUESTION OF THE DAY!: so I was rewatching episodes with my favorite character and noticed that my favorite character is like Hunter. Since Hunter is so obviously based on me, im like my favorite character, Wizardmon. Then it got me thinking… What other digimon remind me of people? So my question for you. What digimon do you relate to? Leave a review! I wanna know!

My name is Hunter and YES! I just did a question of the day… DEAL WITH IT! *Slams laptop shut.*
