Well whadaya know? The minute I said that I would still update even without reviews, I got none. T.T Ah well, this is up for your pleasure as well as mine... Sighs Short chappie too. Just goes to show how sad I am... T.T

WarGreymon X landed in the small secluded forest clearing, where a small hill in the middle was all that could be seen that marred the otherwise perfect clearing.

"Jijimon!" he called softly. "Jijimon! It's me, WarGreymon!"

A scuffling sound started somewhere in the clearing, then abruptly stopped.

"Password?" came a booming masculine voice that seemed to come from everywhere at once, making it impossible for anyone, human or Digimon to identify the source or area from which it came from.

WarGreymon X chuckled softly. "Same old, same old. Courage Jogress Friendship, Omega."

A small hiss came from the base of the hill, and part of the ground literally dropped away as near translucent steam came hissing softly from the hydraulics that supported what now appeared to be an advanced secret hideout. A small Digimon waddled out, barely reaching the waist of WarGreymon X. Straggly hair hung down over his face, completely covering his face and revealing only a similarly long moustache. He wore what seemed to be clothing from the Stone Age, and to add to the impression, he held a staff that had what looked like a paw on its top.

"WarGreymon by golly it is you!" exclaimed the tiny Digimon. "Hell you've changed! When I picked you up on the monitors I wondered whether I'd have to blast you out of the sky! What happened?"

WarGreymon X knelt down so that they were on the same level.

"Jijimon, it's been a long time. You look well," he replied. "I've absorbed the X Virus that Seraphimon purified. That's why I look like this."

"You WHAT?!" Jijimon jumped back in surprise. "The X Virus?!"

"I've absorbed the X Virus, yes, but Seraphimon had purified it into the X Antibody," answered WarGreymon X, wanting to calm down his long-time friend.

"I've got that part in, but the questions I want answered are when, how and why!"

WarGreymon X sighed. "It's a long story..." he muttered, shaking his head. "Let's just say it was a vacation gone horribly wrong."

Jijimon shook his head as well. "WarGreymon... you get in the biggest scrapes I've ever seen with your association with the Chosen. Let me guess; you need a safe haven for them to shelter in while you train them?"

WarGreymon X's eyes twinkled, and it was easy to tell he was smiling. "Jijimon, you know I trust you and your power. Right now, I, no, we, need the use of a place to refuge. It must be able to stand attacks from some of the most powerful Digimon in the Digital World, and then some. The X Virus affords immense power, and the X Antibody does the same. But presently, only MetalGarurumon and myself have the X Antibody. We two alone cannot hold out for long against a determined bunch."

Jijimon shook his head again, sharp eyes observing his friend from behind his shaggy hair. "No... You have enormous power within you, as does MetalGarurumon. You two haven't even Matrix Evolved yet, and you're already taking on the big guns. Anyway..." he stomped his staff on the ground a couple of times as he coughed. "... you're all welcome to stay here. Go tell your friends to come, I'll make the necessary preparations as well as get the weapons ready."

WarGreymon X nodded. "Right. Thank you."

With that, he slashed another dimensional crossing with his Dramon Slayers and leapt through it, again calling over his shoulder, "Be careful!"

Once WarGreymon X had left, a patch of shadows hidden behind the hill suddenly moved, revealing a Tsukaimon. This was a Virus from of Patamon, basically the same shape but with a coloring of midnight blue.

"So Jijimon… what are you gonna do?" it asked in a thin whispery voice. "The master will be very happy with you… Maybe a couple of promotions…?"

Jijimon turned to gaze steadily at the Tsukaimon.

"WarGreymon is my friend, and I will not betray him."

"Ah… but are you sure…? The master will reward you greatly…"

"Enough!" shouted Jijimon. "Cat's Cane!"

Although small and seemingly insignificant, the little Digimon was in fact a powerful Mega level. As Jijimon brought his cane round in a sweeping arc, the little Rookie stage had no chance as the staff crashed right through him and obliterated him instantly.

Jijimon then gazed up at the sky.

"Rest easy my friend. This place is secure."

Please, just because I said you didn't need to review doesn't mean you shouldn't! T.T
