Chapter two: The Birth of Greymon

3rd POV (in the last chapter Dawn passed out)

Everyone was falling to their doom after Kuwagamon broke the ledge of the cliff they were standing on.

"Sora!" Biyomon cried.

"Izzy!" Tentomon fly to him.

"TK!" Patamon yelled.

The three digimon grabbed onto their human's hands, trying to fly them up by flapping their wings, but it didn't work out the way they wanted, seeing as they were falling again.

Lunamon and Coronamon hugged the unconscious Dawn in order to protect her from the fall. Thankfully for the young girl that she was unconscious since she had a fear of water. Has since the accident...(1)

Joe and Gomamon hit the water first, and Gomamon yelled out something that sounded like 'fishes' and a school of colorful fishes surrounded him, picking up Joe and catching everyone else before they hit the water.

"Wow. This is some ride!" Tai said.

"Hey, look out!" Matt yelled.

Kuwagamon was falling off the cliff and landed in the water, creating a huge wave.

Everyone hung onto something as the ride got pretty bumpy, like they were going down rappids and finally, after it was over, they were washed up on the shore of another forest.

Lunamon sighed in relief and looked at her friend in worry. Coronamon picked Dawn up and headed to land.

"I pray we never have to go through that again." Lunamon groaned.

"Take it easy, Lunamon. It's over now." Coronamon grinned.

"I knew we'd be OK. I wasn't worried." Matt statted.

"What was that? A floating fish market?" Joe asked.

"Lucky for us those fish were having a school reuinion. Ha ha!" Gomamon joked. "I'm kiddin'! Those fish are good friends of mine and I just asked them for a lift."

"And all these years I thought I was allergic to sea food. Thank you, uh, I guess it's not Bukamon." Joe said.

"Gomamon now." he wagged his tail.

"And I guess you're not Tokomon, are you?" TK asked his digimon.

"Mm-mm. Now I'm Patamon." he said.

"And we're Lunamon and Coronamon !" The lion digimon said, laughing.

"It's all because we digivolved." explained Agumon.

"I don't think that word's in my dictionary." Tai said.

"So digivolving is when they advance to the next level and become more powerful than before." Izzy said.

"Right! All of us digivoled. I went from Motimon to Tentomon."

"I digivolved from Yokomon to Biyomon."

"First I was Tsunomon, then Gabumon."

" And I changed from Tanemon to Palmon!"

"And me, I was Koromon and changed into Agumon."

"Mm-hm. When you digivolve, you certainly got way bigger. Does this mean you're something different now or still digimon?" Tai asked.

"No we're still Digimon, Tai. Always will be." Lunamon said, still worried about Dawn.

"Yes, I needed your help to do it, Tai." Agumon smiling at Tai.

"What?"

"You see, digivolving is a very difficult process, in order to be successful, I had to share your energy." Agumon said to Tai.

"Really?" he asked.

"I guess you guys don't run on batteries." Sora said.

"Sure don't!" Biyomon sang.

"But how do you access my energy?" Izzy asked Tentomon.

"Even we don't know everything."

"Thanks for my magical powers!" Palmon spun around in a happy dance in front of Mimi.

"This whole thing makes my head spinny!" she whinned.

"So I helped you change! That is so cool!" TK exclaimed.

"Yep! Sure is!" Patamon flapped his ears.

"My folks warned me not to talk to strangers!" Joe said, crossing his arms.

"Hey now! We're are not strangers. We're your friends. So i request that you all treat us like such." Lunamon lightly scolded the older boy.

She turned to Tai. "Tai if it's not too much trouble, I would like to ask that you or one of the other boys could carry Dawn until she wakes up."

"Sure I don't mind!" He said. He kneeled down with his back to Coronamon. The digimon placed Dawn on the older boy's back. Tai stood up and jumped a bit to reposition the small girl so she wouldn't slip off his back.

"OK, come on! So what are we going to do?" Matt asked.

"If only there was a pay phone nearby. We could call the police, the fire department, my mother." Joe said.

"But we don't even know where we are!" Tai broke in, tightening his grip on the small girl.

"But we know where we started. Up there on that mountain!" Sora said.

"I say we forget about going back and explore around here!" Matt said.

"I'm not exploring anywhere! I say we stay right where we are!" Joe said.

"Yeah, let's wait for that giant bug to come get us. We need to find a road leading away from here!" Matt argued.

"Matt's right, but without a compuss, we don't even know which way is North." Izzy said.

"Wait I do!" Tentomon said.

"Well, which way is it?"

"It's the opposite of South!"

Lunamon sighed at Tentomon and Coronamon chucked at the look on the red haired boy's face.

Gomamon was swimming in lake beside the forest path everyone was walking on, as the kids decided to get to know their friends better. With the exception of Dawn who was still asleep.

It had been quite sometime since they landed on Gomamon's fish raft. This made not only her digimon but also Tai and Sora really worried.

"These trees are beautiful!" Sora said,trying to distract herself from worrying.

She looked at the sleeping girl, finally being able to look over her features since arriving to this strange world. Dawn had long pink hair tied back in a braid. Her bangs were cut so that they covered the right eye only.

Sora remembered that Dawn's left eye was amethyst so she assumed that the right one was too. The young girl was wearing a long sleeve purple shirt with red stripes, a black skirt and purple tights and red sneakers.

"They sure are different and I thought they were just subtropical." Izzy said as Sora was examining Dawn.

"Whatever they are...they're aggravating my hayfever!" Joe sniffled.

"Hey, Joe! Is there anything you don't complain about?" Matt asked. Gabumon laugh at his partner's comment.

"Digital monsters, exactly who came up with that name?" Izzy frowned.

"Just call us digimon. We like that!" Tentomon said.

"I only ask because your composition is hardly machine-like."

"Oh really?" Tentomon drawled.

He then started giving off little sparks, making Izzy cover himself.

"Hey, watch it!"

Lunamon and Coronamon giggled a bit at that.

"So, Patamon, can ya really fly?" TK asked.

"Of course!" He then jumped in the air and started flapping.

"Wow, that's cool! But you're going the wrong way!"

"I'm faster than that! Watch!" Biyomon said.

"Wouldn't it be easier to walk?" Sora asked as the two were panting, trying to fly forward.

"Aw, nothing like the smell of the ocean!" Gabumon sighed.

"Everybody in the water!" Gomamon called.

They soon heard the sounds of ringing. No one had noticed Dawn waking up because of the ringing.


Dawn's POV

I woke up to the sound of ringing? I didn't open my eyes afraid that everything that has happened was just a dream. It felt like I was being carried.

"Hey, listen! Did you hear that?" I heard Matt ask. 'Thank goodness it wasn't a dream!' I thought mentally sighing in relief.

"A phone!" I heard Tai say. He sounded really close. Was he the one who was carrying me?

"Either that or we're all hearing things!" I heard Sora say.

As the ringing continued, I felt Tai run towards the sound of the phone. Thanks to the sudden sprint, I banged my head pretty hard into his shoulder.

"I told you! All we need is a phone! We're saved!" I heard Joe cheer.

I carefully lifted my head and opened my eyes. We were on a beach where a bunch of phone booths were lined up and Tai ran up to the booth (not noticing that I was awake. I don't think anyone did) where we heard the ringing, but when he opened the door, it stopped.

"Why'd it stop ringing, Tai?" Agumon asked.

"Wrong number?" He shrugged.

"Well, that's bizzare!" Sora said.

"My theory is aliens. They set these phone booths as a trap!" Izzy said.

"If we find a place that delivers, let's order pizza!" Matt joked.

"Whatever you get, no anchovies for me!" Mimi said, probably thinking he was serious.

"The question is, what are they even doing here at the beach?" Sora asked.

"So people can call their parents for a ride home!" Joe said.

"Parents? Joe, what exactly is a 'parents'?" Gomamon asked. I felt a pang of sadness in my heart. I hated when someone brought that topic up.

Tai and the others stared at our digimon, I guess they were silently wondering if they were serious.

"That's it! I'm outta here!" Joe groaned.

"Does anybody have any loose change?" Tai asked, shifting his hold on me to hold one of his hands out.

"Why?" Izzy asked.

"Obviously I'm gonna make a phone call to get some help."

"Aw, use my phone card! The aliens can bill me. Here." he handed a card to him.

"Maybe there's a quarter in one of the slots!" TK said, running to a booth.

"I'm calling Daddy!" Mimi said.

"I'm hooking up to the internet!" Izzy said.

"I'm calling Collect!" Matt said.

"Dibs on booth four!" Sora said, running a head.

"Hey, guys, wait for me! Come on!" Joe said.

I tapped Tai on the shoulder and he turned his head to look at me. His eyes widened and a grin grew on his face. "Hey your finally awake. How you feeling?" He whispered.

"I have a headache from when you started to run and I banged my head into your shoulder." I told the boy.

He grinned sheepishly. "Sorry about that Dawn."

"It's no problem but...could you let me down? I'm okay now..." He knelt down and I climbed off his back.

"Thanks for carrying me Tai" I smiled.

He ginned. "No problem, Dawn!" He turned back to the phone and tried to call someone.

I had a feeling that they weren't going to work so why should I even try. I walked over to the digimon where I was tackled in a hug by Lunamon and Coronamon. I laughed as Lunamon fussed over me.

Eventually the others had given up except for Joe, that is. Sora saw me and looked over me making sure that I was alright. She and Lunamon remained me of my mom and sister.

Both were always worried about me since I always got sick or hurt easily. I smiled and assured her that I was fine with the exception of the headache that Tai had given me when they rushed over here. It was hilarious to see Sora give Tai a death glare that surely promised a world of pain.

"H-Hey, Dawn, d-did you bring a-anything with you?" Tai asked, shrinking away from Sora's glare.

I took off my back pack and opened it up. The first thing I saw was that strange device that fell from the sky. I had a feeling that it had something to do with us being here.

I stuffed it in to another pocket and pulled out a blanket, a jacket and some food, which consisted of two juice boxes, four water bottles, an apple, several bags of chips, a bag of strawberries, a bag of assorted candy and a bar of chocolate. Yeah my adopted mom kinda went overboard on the snacks.

"Alright, food!" Tai exclaimed.

"But it's not enough for everyone here. Didn't anybody else bring anything?" Sora asked. I lightly slapping Coronamon's hand as he went to grab the chocolate bar.

"Hey, look at what I got!" TK said. He took off his back pack and opened it up to reveal all sorts of junk food. "Check it out!"

"Wow, look at all those goodies! Why don't you be a good little boy and share those treats with dear, sweet Mimi?" the pinkette said.

"Aw, you don't have to be so nice, Mimi, I'm happy to share, you're the best. Isn't she cute?" TK said, looking up at his brother.

"Forget it!" Matt said.

"At least we have a bit more then before." I said.

"Oh, man. Check out the genius! He's trying to call the telehphone repairman because the telephones don't work. Hey, look, Joe's got the emergency food!" Tai said, making everyone gasp.

"No way!" Izzy said, gaping.

"Fine! Hey, Joe, you got all the food!" Tai called.

"Hey, don't you know it's rude to interupt someone when they're on the telephone?" he said.

"But that bag..." Izzy said.

"This? I brought it to give to Mimi, today was her day to carry the bag!"

"Think he likes ya?" Palmon asked her partner.

"No way." Mimi said.

"Mimi, you have got to stop thinking about yourself and take some responsibility!" Joe said to the pinkette.

"But, that bag's too heavy for me!" she cried.

"Listen, you never hear me complaining!"

"Guys, guys! Listen, the most important thing now is that we have enough food to eat. So lets sit down and have some lunch." Tai reasoned.

"Uh-huh!" Sora said.

We were all now sitting in a circle, trying to divide the food amongst ourselves to see how long it would last.

"OK, let's figure this out. There's 8 people in the group times 3 days, times 3 meals, that comes to..." Joe trailed off.

"72 meals." Izzy finished.

"Ah, right, so splitting evenly between us, we have, uh..."

" Enough food for 3 days."

"Oh, right. I guess you knew that."

"But you guys, when you add in the digimon, we really only have enough for half an hour." Sora said.

"Oh, that's right." Joe said.

"Not a problem at all! We digimon hunt and forge for ourselves!" Gabumon said.

We looked at them, surprised.

"Don't worry about us!" Coronamon said.

"Are you sure?" I asked.

"We are quite sure, Dawn. There is no need to worry." Lunamon said.

"You sure, Biyomon?" Sora asked her partner.

"Oh, absolutly! We can do alright for ourselves."

"OK, now that that's taken care of, let's go ahead and divide this between the 8 people here." Joe said.

"This is great! I could eat a dozen of these!" Tai said, he and Agumon eating some of the food.

"And just what do you think you're doing?" Joe asked.

"I'm glad we never hear you complain." Tai said, sarcasm evident.

"You people drive me crazy!" Joe growled.

I sighed and shook my head, then gasped. I felt the earth move.

"What's wrong, Dawn?" TK asked.

"I'm not sure, but I'm getting a bad feeling that something's gonna happen soon" I said.

I've always been really sensitive to even the slightest negativity in the air and/or earth since I was five but it got worse since the accident.

A geyser shot out of the ground, blasting away the phone booth, making us run to avoid getting hit by them.

"What's that?" Tai asked.

The sand started swirling in the air and a creature appeared.

"Shellmon!" Tentomon said.

"What's a Shellmon?" Izzy asked.

"Something that get's mad for no reason!" the insect replied.

"Attacked by two digital monsters in the same day! And doesn't Shellmon know I'm allergic to shellfish?" Joe said.

Shellmon got closer to us and Joe started climbing up the stone wall behind us, but was blasted down by Shellmon's water based attack.

"Digimon, attack!" Agumon said.

All the digimon charged Shellmon, trying out different attacks, but they wouldn't work! They all failed, except for Agumon's.

The digimon were blasted away by Shellmon and the orange dino was the only one who had the strength to get back up.

We went to help our exhausted partners and they told us that they were too hungry to fight. Now it was all up to Agumon and Tai, who was stupid enough to go attack the shellfish.

"Is he crazy?" I said, horrified.

"Don't worry, Agumon'll protect him." Lunamon sighed. "It's his job after all."

Tai was then trapped by Shellmon's hair, which were probably tentacles, and the thing stepped on Agumon, holding him down as he turned to blast the rest of us.

Lunamon grabbed TK and Patamon and held onto them and Coronamon grabbed me as we was blasted, getting knocked back into the wall behind us.

I heard Coronamon grunt in pain. "Coronamon are you okay?" I asked, worried.

"I'm fine" he grinned.

"What about you Lunamon?"

"I'm fine Dawn! T.K. and Patamon too!" She said.

Agumon then cried something that sounded like "Digivolve!" and was surrounded by a bright light.

"Agumon digivolve to...Greymon!"

He became a huge dino and attack Shellmon, making him release Tai. He lifted the shellfish up and tossed him in the air, then blasted him with a fire attack he called "Digi Nova Blast". After Shellmon went flying, Greymon turned back into Agumon, tired. Coronamon and I watched in awe as the fight went on.

"Hello? Come on, I know you're there! Operater? Operrater!" Joe yelled, trying to use the broken phone.

"There's really no reason to stay here now." Tai said.

"Who wants to break the bad news to Joe?" Matt asked.

"If you want some more, just say so!" Sora said to the eating digimon.

"Shellmon wasn't destroyed, he was just temporarily removed. We should pack up and leave before he decides to come back for round 2!" Izzy said.

"Good idea!" Matt said.

"Then in that case, we should head back to the forest! If anyone's looking for us, that's the place they'll go!" Joe said, joining the group.

"But we fell off a cliff and were washed down river! How would they be able to find us? Not to mention, we'd probably get lost trying to find our way back." Sora said.

I froze a bit at the phrase 'washed down the river'. No one but my digimon noticed. Thankfully they didn't comment on it.

"And we could run into Kuwagamon!" Mimi chimed in.

"Logically speaking, if there are telephones here, then there must be people to use the! So it makes sence to try and find those people." Izzy said.

"That makes sence?" Joe asked.

"It certainlly does." Sora said.

"Then let's all get going!" Tai said.

"Anywhere you wanna go, I'll go, Tai! You just pick the direction!" Agumon said, cheerfully.

"Then lets get outta this place!" Tai said, excited.

"And let the monsters beware!" Matt smiled.

"Well, my plan is to avoide all mosters. Yep, that's my paln." Joe said.

"OK, here we go!" Tai cheered.

"Digimon!" We yelled.
