(1 year 6 months later)
Kagome jumped from a tree branch as she chased after Renamon. This was one of the only training games she enjoyed. Partly because it was one she knew how to play but also because it didn't almost get her killed like the other games.
"Renamon! I'll catch you!"
"I'm sure you will Kagome, but not by running into branches."
"What are you talking about? I haven't ran into a br―AH!" Kagome caught hold of the branch she hit and flipped forward before landing on another one.
"Now what did I tell you. You'll never catch by running into branches." Kagome glared at the yellow fox Digimon that stood on two legs and up to her shoulders, he had a white stomach, White tipped tail, white fluffy mane around his neck, white paws and white tipped ears. On his arms were purple armored sleeves and then on his legs were spaced yin and yang signs. He was leaning against the tree with a smirk, his sleeved arms crossed over his chest.
"You're getting cocky in your old age Renamon!"
"Old age!? I'm only in my Rookie form!"
Kagome smirked as he went stalk still at her words and started to mumble about two more stages. She plunged forward and caught him off guard as she knocked him off balance, her arms wrapped around him tightly. Before hitting the ground she released him and both maneuvered to landing on the ground carefully and injury free.
"You caught me, but next time try it without the snappy comments. Your opponent won't always fall for that."
"My opponent won't always run away."
"Not run away but get away from you to perhaps get something important, someone important. Enemies come in all types."
"Yeah, yeah. Hey, where are Tanemon, Biyomon and Kilamon training today?"
"Kilamon is busy rounding up a swarm of Honeybeemon. Tanemon is training basic bubble blasts with a bunch of the In-Training Digimon that are waiting."
"You keep saying waiting, well waiting for what?"
"You'll know soon enough. It's been two years since you've arrived here Kagome. Two years without your friends, family or interaction with your kind."
"You mean humans right."
"Yes."
"Yes, two years, how do you know that?"
"I just know. Tell me Kagome, are you happy here?"
"Yeah, it's nice here, quieter then the streets, and no weird smells. Though...I do miss my mom's cooking. Also, I wouldn't mind seeing my baby brother, but other then that, yeah, I'm happy here."
"Kagome, you'll go home someday, you'll see your brother and mother again. For now though, we train."
"I am still not completely sure what we are training for...but Renamon?"
"Yes..."
"...you're it." She smirked before taking off in a sprint in the direction they had just come from.
-x-x-x-
"Nya! You won't win!" Kilamon called out of annoyance as a Honeybeemon tried to sting her with it's Paralyze Sting attack. She dodged and rammed her hide into it before smirking. "Inferno Rush!" She shouted before rushing forward in a speedy dash until a red glow surrounded her form. Her eyes saw red before she pounced on ever single Honeybeemon she could, instantly causing their wings to sizzle from the heat and for them to drop to the ground. When she landed, all the Honeybeemon were gathered in a group.

"Kuwagamon! Stop this now!"
ERAAAAAAAAA!!
Kagome, Kilamon and Biyomon covered their ears as Kuwagamon brought down it's pincers on them.
"Damn it! Kuwagamon, calm down or I will be forced to fight you!" It calmed only slightly when suddenly a Candlemon placed a flame on the end of its toe.
ERAAAAAAAAA!!
"CANDLEMON!!!!"
The small Digimon took off running with a cheeky grin as Kuwagamon took off flying in an anonymous direction in the sky. "CANDLEMON!!!! YOU GET BACK HERE!" Kagome yelled before chasing after the rude Digimon. Kilamon and Biyomon followed close behind.
-x-x-x-
Renamon stared at the Digimon that stood before him. They were all In-Training and held a Digivice similar to that of Kagome's. They started to glow bright before shooting out of their hands and into the sky.
"Soon, you will all have a partner. Guard them, keep them safe."
"RIGHT!" The group said brightly. Tanemon gave a sad smile. Biyomon's real partner wasn't coming, yet theirs were.
Renamon gave a nod before jumping to a branch and out of sight.
-x-x-x-
Kagome sighed. She had split up with Kilamon and Biyomon so that they could cover more distance and catch that Candlemon.
"I hadn't thought that the tag training would actually come in handy." She said in annoyance. "Hm?" She heard something from the distance and turned to see an adorable boy with blonde hair and a cap. Her eyes widened, she jumped out of sight and watched as one of her Allied Digimon friends walked up to him.
"TK! You're TK!"
"AH, what...what are you?"
The boy said, curiously walking closer to her friend and poking him gently.
"I'm Tokomon! I've been waiting for you TK. We're going to be best friends, I just know it."
"Ah, haha." The boy laughed when Tokomon launched himself at him and started hugging each other.
Kagome smiled but frowned at the thought of a human boy lost in the DigiWorld. She jumped at the sound of more footsteps and saw another person with blonde hair appear. Her eyes widened as a blush stained her cheeks.
'So...cute.' Her eyes locked with his momentarily before she vanished out of his sight. Cobalt had momentarily met with azure orbs. She moved to a different tree and watched their interaction hidden behind the leaves.
"Matt? Matt! Look! This is my new friend Tokomon." TK said as he bounded up to the boy Matt. Matt nodded his head to Tokomon as he maneuvered the Digimon beneath his arms to an easier position.
"This is Tsunomon."
'What a nice voice...'
"Listen TK, we should find the others. Come on."
"Others!?"
Kagome didn't stay any longer, jumping to the ground after the two left she ran back towards Kilamon and Biyomon.
"Kagome." She turned her head a bit and saw Renamon running next to her on her left.
"Renamon. Was this what you meant? Was this what the Digimon were waiting for?"
"..."
"That's all I needed to know."
She sped up as fast as she could until she saw Kilamon and Biyomon.
"No luck Kagome."
"Nya, that annoying piece of wax on feet."
"Forget about Candlemon, which way did Kuwagamon go?"
The two pointed in the direction that TK and Matt had gone and Kagome froze. She wasn't sure why but she was scared for them.
-EEEEEAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-
Kagome's eyes widened at the high pitched cry of a girl.
"Biyomon, Kilamon! Let's go!" She said before running off towards the cry.
-x-x-x-
Renamon followed the three as fast as possible but by the time they had made it to the fight they were already falling off the cliff as Kuwagamon cracked the edge causing it to brake off.
"KUWAGAMON!!!" Kuwagamon turned and started towards Kagome. "Kilamon, Biyomon, take him out!"
Kagome said before leaving them to do what they were told and rushing down to the drop of the cliff. She heard a cry and watched as Kuwagamon fell into the water causing the kids on the fish net to rush forward in a wave. She jumped from the cliff and as carefully as possible she made her way down the rocks.
'I can't catch up to them, I hope they'll be okay.'
The current carried them farther and faster that by the time she was on solid ground...she couldn't see them. She walked the river until she heard talking of phone booths.
"Phone booths?!" She whispered to herself. 'Shellmon's home. I hope they don't disturb him, Biyomon and Kilamon aren't here to stop him.'
