A/N: To the guest who reviewed with the character "Kraig", please go back and read the rules. Thank you.

Send me you bad guys, everyone! I have few so far lol. I have a few of my own in mind but haven't written them down yet.

Also I know I made some grammar errors in the last chapter and I intend to go back later and correct them. Please forgive me in advance, I can't guarantee it won't happen again. I try my best to catch them all but they sometimes slip past me.

I gotta say it surprised me how much you guys were surprised by my choice in Huckmon. It really came down to the fact I liked his design and I haven't seen many people use him before.

Pov: Jovie

"Digimon Hunter's Alliance?" Diego blinked dumbly. "What's that?"

I sighed, I guess I should have know better than to expect him to know who we are. I glanced from Diego to his Digimon who was shaking with joy. I smirked and folded my arms over my chest. "Digimon Hunter's Alliance or DHA is an organization created by myself and fellow Hunter's in order to protect the Digital World and human world from potential threats. When we ran into you downtown it's because we were chasing down BlackGarurumon." I pointed at his Digi Loader and frowned. "He had crossed over to our world but was sucked back into the Digital World by a portal that had appeared. We were staking him out and then you came and ruined everything." I smirked.

"That's why you guys were in so much of a hurry then." Diego scratched his arm and glanced at us. "So you basically capture Digimon that come off as a threat?"

"Mostly. We like to hunt on our own time too." I swiped my Digi Loader in the air; three screens appeared displaying my other Digimon I had on hand: Dobermon, Chaosdramon, and Cyberdramon. Diego's eyes widened and I felt a surge of pride swell within me. Those Digimon hadn't been easy to catch, it had taken everything Impmon and I had. "Hunting strengthens our Digimon so that they can progress to the next level."

Diego frowned. "Is that a bit cruel though? I mean, forcing them to fight?"

I narrowed my eyes and scowled. "Who said we were forcing them? The Digimon we have willingly come with us."

Ryo nodded. "Yeah dude. It's in a Digimons DNA to fight. Survival of the fittest and all that junk."

"And if a Digimon doesn't want to be apart of our team we release them into a safe area. We don't force them to anything." Alex glared coldy at Diego. I could already tell that those two weren't going to get along; Alex only trusted those he considered close friends and right now Diego was a enemy to him.

"Oh. I'm sorry." He sheepishly smiled. "What do you think, Huckmon? Do you think we should join them?" Diego eyed his Digimon who at the moment looked more like an excited puppy begging for a treat.

"Of course we should! The DHA are the coolest organization ever! Everyone in the Digital World knows who they are!" Huckmon's stump of tail excitedly wagged back and forth.

"You better believe we are!" I grinned and proudly placed my hands on my hips. It was true that we were well known over the Digital World, the DHA has been around for a couple months now and over that time we've helped many Digimon. "The best part about joining us is that you'll get to meet all kinds of Hunters and Digimon." He seemed to be listening more closely now. "Since you still seem unsure how about we give you a tour of our base?"

"Your base?" Diego raised a brow.

"Jovie! Are you crazy? We don't even know this guy!" Alex scowled at me. I waved him off.

"It couldn't hurt." Ryo shrugged. "That way we can see what the other members of the alliance think. That's fair, right, Al?" He grinned at his unhappy friend. "Aw come on! What's the worst that can happen? If he tries anything we'll beat him to a pulp!" Ryo's scarlet orbs flickered to Diego. There was something hidden behind them; something that made Diego shiver.

"O-Okay then.."

Pov: Ryoga

The look on Diego and Huckmon's faces when we arrived at our 'base' was priceless! Base? Hah! No lousy base will do for the DHA. No, we have a fortress, made from the strongest digistone. I folded my arms behind my head and grinned proudly at the massive stone structure. It was I who suggest we build our base in the Digital World, Jovie was the one to design it, and Alex rounded up Digimon to help us build it.

It was one of out greatest achievements so far.

The base was square in shape with four high castle towers surrounding it. Windows were carved into the stone and wooden bridges extended from one point to another. A stone staircase lead to the entrance which was guarded by a couple of Guardromon who we had helped a month back. They were the biggest one to help us with building the base. I looked up at the blue sky above our base where a blank flag rippled in the wind. I frowned. Our flag; well, what would be out flag anyway. So far nobodies been able to think up a design for it. I guess it wasn't too important at the moment but I couldn't help but feel we wouldn't really be complete without it.

The others had started filing into the base and I ran to catch up with them. We walked down the long corridor illuminated by candles hanging off the walls. I clamped a hand down on Diego's shoulder, the poor guy looked really nervous. It was like he thought we were going to kill him! I chuckled and shook my head. Exiting the corridor we entered the main room where most of the alliance was currently hard at work. How do I describe it? Computers here, computers there, machines here, machines there, just technology everywhere! It was crazy but we had the Andromon and Datamon to thank for it, and some of our very own members. Along with the computers and stuff there were hallways and doors that lead to separate rooms and different areas of the base.

I looked around for Jovie and Alex. Jovie was giving Diego a tour and Alex was analyzing his Digi Loaders map. He must be getting ready to go on a hunt. Actually, that's not a bad idea. "Flamemon, you feel like going on a hunt?" I glance down at my Digi Loader with a smirk knowing the answer already.

"You bet I am!"

Pov: Diego

When Jovie offered to take me back to their base I was expecting something smaller, like a tree house or something but this, this was incredible! I never would have imagined something like this. Huckmon and I's mouths were never closed throughout the whole tour. Even when Jovie was introducing me to the members I still couldn't help but be amazed! I stared at the kid in front of me who observing me as if I was a product she was interested in buying.

"Diego this is Tera Key." Jovie smiled down at the girl. She was small with shoulder length cherry brown hair and blue-green eyes. She had freckles across her nose and the tops of her cheek, and her skin was fair. The girl wore a long sleeved white jacket with no zippers and a plain pink t-shirt. For her bottoms she wore long black leggings that went down to her ankles and a pink, ruffled skirt, that went to the top of her knees. "Tera here is the alliance' little computer genius. And she's only ten years old, can you believe that?" Jovie ruffled her hair playfully.

She really is just a kid. Is this kind of place safe for her?..I couldn't imagine Gabby or Malia in a place like this..

Tera frowned and swatted her hand away. "Do you have to do that?" Tera frowned. "Who's this?" She narrowed her eyes at me. I could tell just by her body language that she didn't trust me - no one here seemed to. Did I really come off as a threat?

Jovie pointed her finger at me. "This is Diego Alvarez. He's going to be joining the crew."

"I see." Tera eased a bit but her glare was still firm. "Jovie, about that favor you asked of me. I've searched the data base numerous times now and can't find a single trace. I think they're blocking out their signal somehow."

"Is that so?" A frown took over Jovie's face. She knitted her eyebrows together and clenched her fists. "Then maybe one of the Datamon in Chrome City can help us? I'm sure they wouldn't mind, especially after we defeated Cyberdramon for them." Jovie chuckled as a low growl came form her Digi Loader.

Terra tapped her thumb to her chin and thought for a minute. "Yeah I guess you're right. I'll send a message right away!" Terra smiled and dashed over to one of the many computers.

"We're back."

Jovie and I both glanced towards the entrance where a boy and young girl had just walked in. The boy was about 5'7" give or take with lightly tanned skin and clear blue eyes. His hair was shaved into a faux fade with the sides being black and the top being a dark purple. There was a scar across his right eye as well. The guy was wearing a tight fitting black shirt, light gray cargo shorts that went past his knees, black socks, and white low tops. A shark tooth necklace hung carelessly around his neck and two black wrist bands were on his wrist with the initials A and K written on them in white sharpie.

The girl only came up to the guys waist and was holding tightly onto his hand. Her skin was dark and her eyes were big and round, and dark brown in color that reminded me of Malia's. There were dark freckles on her cheek and a gap between her teeth, and she was a bit chubby. Actually, she was a pretty cute kid. Her hair was braided into pigtails and she was wearing a panda bear hoodie, a light green skirt, dark purple leggings, and light pink converse.

"Akira, Maddy, welcome back." Jovie nodded at them. "These are two more of our members; Akira Kataoka and Maddeline-"

"Maddy!" The girl yelled with puffed cheeks.

"Maddy Gilbert."

Akira dumped a hand into his pocket and stared at me for a moment. "Yo." He finally said with little to no emotion. Maddy frowned up at him and shoved her elbow into his side. "Hn." Akira smiled down at her, a twinkle of amusement in his eyes.

"Don't be rude Aki! Hi there! What's your name?" Maddy smiled brightly up at me. Okay. This kid was adorable. "My name is Maddeline but I prefer Maddy! Don't ever call me Maddeline." Her eyes darkened and a dark aura shrouded her. I shivered remembering my earlier statement about not underestimating little girls. "And this is Akira! He's my big brother but we're not related though." She frowned sadly.

Akira smiled and patted her head. "Is he a new recruit?"

Jovie nodded. "Yep. This is Diego Alvarez and Huckmon."

"He's so cute!"

Maddy tore her hand from Akira and dive bombed Huckmon. The digimon squeaked and toppled over onto his back. "I'm being attacked!" He yelled with wide yellow eyes. Jovie and Diego laughed. Akira glared. And Maddy cuddled the metal dragon. Maddy giggled and rubbed Huckmon's underbelly. "That actually feels kinda nice.." Huckmond relaxed and even let out a little purr of delight!

"You're just a dog trapped inside of a dragon's body." I sighed and shook my head. My big bad dragon alright.

I looked back to Maddy who had pulled out her own lilac Digi Loader. I watched with curiousness as she pressed a button and said, "Reload, Pandamon!"

As expected a black and white panda appeared wearing a red scarf. He also had bandages formed in an 'X' shaped on his stomach. Pandamon looked at Maddy with lazy red eyes. "Master." He spoke in a soothing voice. "What can I do for you?"

"Meet our new friends Pandamon!"

Pandamon looked from me to Huckmon with little to no interest. "Greeting. I am Pandamon. Welcome to the alliance."

"Akira, aren't you going to introduce your Digimon?" She innocently asked.

Akira sighed and Jovie smirked. Akira wasn't one to interact with people - most of the time he was shut in his room or out on a hunt. Maddy's the only one who's ever broken through his loner exterior. The two were close; practically brother and sister. Wherever Maddy went Akira was right there with him and vice-versa.

"Reload, Palmon."

Akira held up his purple Digi Loader and pointed it forward. Not even a minute later a green plant like Digimon with pink flowers on it's head materialized. She shyly looked around the room at everyone. "Is something wrong Akira?" She spoke quietly and softly. Akira smiled and stroked her petals. Palmon seemed to relax and even cracked the tiniest of smiles at him.

"Palmon! Meet out new friends! Fuego and Puckmon!"

"..Diego.."

"..Huckmon.."

Huckmon and I sighed and the others -minus Akira- laughed.

"It's not funny!" Huckmon whined.

POV: Alex

"Boom Bubble!"

"Bunny Blast!"

I smirked gripping my Digi Loader. It wouldn't be much longer now. "Again, aim for his wing, Terriermon!" I called to my loyal Digimon partner.

"You got it Alex!"

Terriermon grinned and did a back flip to avoid Patamon's Slamming Attack. Just as he turned his back to her Terriermon opened her mouth and yelled, "Bunny Blast!" Shooting Patamon's left wing with a green ball of energy. Just as I had predicted Paramon fell from the sky and crashed to the ground.

He lay on the ground twitching and struggling to stand.

"Ease of, Terriermon. I can handle it from here." I dropped my Digi Loader to my side and gently approached Patamon. The Digimon's eyes widened fearfully. I cringed. 'Patamon." I spoke softly. "I'm not going to hurt you. I only have a question to ask you." I knelled down next to him and stroked his head soothingly.

Patamon relaxed a bit. "What?"

"Do you want to join my team? I'm part of a group known as The Digimon Hunter's Alliance. We work together with Digimon to protect the Digital World."

"I've heard about you guys." Patamon's eyes widened. Patamon forced himself into a sitting position and looked up at the sky. "If I join do you promise to help me get stronger?" He looked at me with wide hopefull blue eyes.

"Of course."

"Then I'll join your team.

I smiled and stepped back. Carefully, I aimed my white Digi Loader at Patamon; the bright purple ring of light shot out and circled around Patamon, slowly closing him in a ball of light. Patamon's eyes gently shut as he burst into data as was sucked into my Digi Loader.

"Capture complete." I grinned and Terriermon and then at my Digi Loader. "That's one off the list. Welcome to the team, Patamon."

Terriermon bounced around on her ears and fiddled with her scarf. "Alex, what's on your mind?" The question was innocent enough but it made me stiffen. "You've been a bit off every since we met that kid and his Digimon." Truthfully, Terriermon knew the reason, but she wanted Alex to talk to her about it.

"I don't trust him. Plain and simple. The guy just shows up out of nowhere and Jovie goes and asks him to join the team! Sometimes she can be so reckless." I frowned and kicked a rock across the ground. Jovie was one of the few people I trusted but it bothered me how trusting she could be. Whenever she met someone with a Digimon she was ready to bring them into the alliance. It was reckless and dangerous.

"She only has the alliance' best interest at heart and besides, Jovie knows what she's doing. She's smarter than you give her credit for Alex." Terriermon smiled and jumped onto my shoulder. "You just need to learn to trust people! Spread your wings! Break out of the shell you've trapped yourself in!"

I rolled my eyes. "You're too optimistic."

"And you're too pessimistic."

"Touche."

"Creme brulee!"

Terriermon giggled and I rolled my eyes. I didn't even bother to hide my smile form her.

Pov: Unknown

For months now we've been searching for their base. Endless days and nights spend traversing the Digital World in search of those damned Hunters or should I say The Digimon Hunter's Alliance? What a stupid name. It's almost as stupid as their base. Really, the self-righteous pricks of the Digital World were actually proud of this clump of rocks? They're even more pathetic than they look. And that stupid white flag flying above their dumb base, what was up with that?

"I find it hard to believe that these chumps are the one's the Dark Emperor's are afraid of." I roll my eyes and look to my comrades.

"You should know better by now than to underestimate your enemies, Lin. If the Dark Emperor's think these guys are a threat than we can't ignore it." Says a girl with silver hair and blue eyes. Athena. God I hate her. I hate everything about her; from her stupid black leather jacket and purple shirt, to the stupid knee length violet shorts she wore and her stupid black sneakers, actually I kinda like them, strike that. Oh! And that stupid black cross necklace she wears.

Everything about her is stupid!

Who am I kidding! Athena's a freaking genius, and her wardrobe is pretty cool too, I guess. But I do hate her! I hate how no matter how hard I try she always seemed to be a step ahead of me - even winning over the Emperor. Before she came along I was Emperor's favorite; his right hand woman, I was the one he spoke highly of! But that all changed when she arrived.

It's just not fair!

Suddenly, long and crooked fingers reach out and brush my hair. If this were to happen to anyone else they probably would have screamed and fainted by now but I remained calm, even smiling. I glance at the odd little blue Digimon with big green eyes. Keramon. My Digimon partner and only true friend I've ever had.

"It isn't proper for a lady to make such expressions. You should be more enthusiastic Line. You'd be more approachable that way." The male voice next to me drips with sarcasm and arrogance, the British accent only make it more annoying to me. I glare at the boy with pale blond hair and blue eyes. He was wearing a tacky white jacket, red undershirt, gray jeans, and white shoes. Jasper Larson. I hate him more than I hate Athena. You now those stereotypical rich snobs you see on tv? That's Jasper in a nutshell.

"Go choke on a scone you pompous prick!"

"Scandalous!."

"Yes, you are."

"Would you two just kiss and shut up already." Jasmine "Jazz" rolled her eyes at us. She has long pitch black hair that reaches down to her mid-back, bright emerald eyes and a full hourglass shape, surprisingly. She wears a dark red jacket, black shirt and short jeans. "Stalking these wannabes is pointless. We should be training our Digimon for the battle to come." Jazz glanced at her partner Digimon, Psychemon.

I sighed and strummed my fingers through my bangs. Silly me. I never described myself. Well, I too have long black hair, only I keep mine in a braid that reaches my bottom. My eyes are almond shape and black in color. I wear a black Chinese styled shirt with a white dragon on it, black knee length pants and black slip on shoes. I also wear a white bow in my hair.

"I hate to agree with her but she's right. Who know what kind of trick these punks have up their sleeves."

Jasper turned his nose to the air. "My Digimon is doing just fine." He glanced up at the sky where a large snake like creature was flying around. "Isn't that right, Queatzalmon?"

The snake Digimon hissed in approval.

"Let's just go before I punch this pricks lights out."

Pov: Lucy

Lucine "Lucy" Davidyan is my name. I'm one of the alliance' D-Class members. Don't take me too lightly though; I'm highly intelligent and the best at what I do. I lean with my back against the stone wall waiting for Diego and Huckmon to finish exploring their room. Everyone at DHA gets their very own room when the join, it's necessary for when we spend the night in the Digital World, or if you just want to get away from the real world for a bit.

When the two exit the room I put on a smile and stand up straight. "Find everything alright? I'm sure it wasn't too much trouble for you." I smile and mentally snicker at my back handed compliment.

Diego grins and bobs his head. "It's a lot bigger than my rock back home. I can't believe you guys actually have rooms here! This place has a little bit of everything."

"Jovie wants the best for us. This place is her pride and joy." I sigh and smile. Jovie could be headstrong but there was no denying her love for DHA and everyone in it. Anyways let's head back to the main room, okay? We'll all be heading home soon."

Pov: Diego

Lucy is a girl with dark brown wavy hair that goes down to her mid-back styled in a fishtail ponytail. Her are are almond shape and gray in color, and her skin is tan with olive undertones. She looked like she was about 4'9" and not even a hundred pounds soaking wet. So far she seemed pretty friendly.

"Home? Man, I almost forgot about home. I bet my mom and sisters are freaking out right now." A sudden thought came to mind and I paled. "Gabby's going to kill me!"

Huckmon cocked his head. "Gabby? What's a Gabby?"

"Gabby is one of my little sisters. Today's her birthday." I sighed.

Lucy placed a hand on my shoulder and smiled. "Time goes a lot faster here in the Digital World. Your family most likely hasn't taken notice of your absence yet."

The thought brought me comfort. "That's good to know. I don't think I'd be able to forgive myself for worrying them. Mom has enough to deal with as it is." I frowned to myself. My mom has always been one of my biggest inspirations in life. She works long hard hours to give my sisters and I a decent life all the while my sperm donor is nowhere to be seen, probably living the high life. Prick.

Lucy and I headed back to the main room where everyone who was present at the base gathered. Jovie smiled and waved us over. "Took you long enough." She grinned holding her Digi Loader. "It's time to go back home. Everyone ready?" She asked receiving nods all around. I was confused though. How exactly did we get home? I mean, I was randomly brought here by a portal, so maybe we had to go find one? But that could take forever.

"Um how do we get home?"

There were sighs.

I scowled and bit back a blush.

"Cool it you guys. He's new at this and so were all of you at one point. It's really easy, Diego." Jovie latched onto my arm and held up her Digi Loader. "Whenever you want to come to and from the Digital World all you have to do it hold up your Digi Loader and say two magic words."

"Yeah? Well what are they?"

There were grins all around as Digi Loaders were lifted into the air. "Time Shift!" Chorused throughout the room as portals appeared all around. I wanted to ask what the hell was going on but before I could Jovie had pushed me through the portal and that familiar feeling of drowsiness overtook me.

I don't think I'll ever get used to this.

What do you guys think the flag should look like?

I tried to squeeze as many characters into this chapter as I could lol. What do you guys think of the Pov thing? Does it make it a little easier to see who's talking?

Thank you to everyone who's sent in an oc! And extra thanks to those who have been generous enough to provide me with more than one. I can already tell that this story is going to go far! And I can't wait! I have so many ideas on what's to come. Oh and I hope I'm doing a good job at portraying you guys' characters. I don't normally write so many characters at a time but I think for the most part I'm doing fine.

Going to start working on the next chapter now! ;)
