Disclaimer I don't own Digimon

I know this one is out quick but what can I say, my creativity was flowin so enjoy ^^


A lone Digimon made her way through the night following a trail invisible to everyone else. The full moon was bright overhead but still no one seemed to notice her as she passed in front of it. The trail led her to a large house in Shinjuku, the trail led all over the house. She grimaced the only way to find him would be to search room by room. Landing in the home's garden she quietly walked to the nearest door and silently opened it. Inside was a girl asleep on her futon, wrong room. The Digimon slid the door shut and walked down the hall looking for anything out of the ordinary. A door sealed with protective charms of digital origin, she slit the seal with one of the blades on her weapon and entered.

She breathed a sigh of relief at what she saw. On the futon, curled up asleep was Kudamon. She slid the door shut behind her. When she walked over to the futon she knelt down beside it. She lay her weapon down and reached out a tentative hand to touch the sleeping Digimon. Before she could touch him the door slid open and the girl from the other room rushed in, accompanied by a Renamon.

"Don't you dare lay a finger on him." The girl said

"Hush child, do want to wake him? I mean no harm please believe me." The Digimon said

The girl held up her D-Power "Dianamon, Mega level, it says that you're as dangerous as you are beautiful."

"Rika, I believe she speaks truthfully." Renamon said

"I don't trust her Renamon, but I trust you. Let's get something straight Dianamon, if you harm a single strand of his fur you won't live long enough to regret it."

"I would never harm the one who calls me"

"O…Onee-chan" Kudamon said sleepily in a dual voice opening his eyes "why are you looking at me like that Onee-chan, did…did I do something wrong?"

Dianamon put her hand on his head and pet him gently. "No Oto-chan," she said quietly "you have done nothing wrong, please, go back to sleep."

He smiled weakly and nuzzled her hand "Goodnight Onee-chan."

"Goodnight, my Oto-chan."

He fell back asleep and three people left the room. They went out into the garden were there was more space. Dianamon again laid her weapon aside and knelt down. Rika and Renamon stood there and eyed her warily. Rika was the first to speak.

"How do you know Alex and Kudamon?"

"Alex?...So, that's the name of the boy he saved. I don't know Alex, but Kudamon is my oto-chan."

"Please, explain what you mean." Renamon said "Digimon don't have brothers and sisters, or families for that matter."

"I met Kudamon six years ago. I was already the mon you see before you and had no interest in Rookies. However, no matter how hard I tried I couldn't seem to get rid of him. He was very childish and did many silly things but, somehow he always seemed to make me smile. One day we saw a pair of tamers, brother and sister, Kudamon heard them talking and began calling me Onee-chan. Soon I picked up the habit of calling him Oto-chan. On many occasions I could have let him be killed or have killed him myself, but I couldn't do it, no matter how hard I tried I could not kill him or let him die. We travelled for two years and then when the D-Reaper showed up he digivolved into Kentaurosmon but, he still called me Onee-chan, and we…we were still a family. When he gave up his power and became Kudamon again I couldn't understand why…but now…"

"It's alright," Rika said "they are and probably will continue to be two separate people, but it seems that their memories are becoming intertwined. It wouldn't surprise me if they know everything about each other now."

"It has only been eight and a half hours since he fought Magnamon, to think that you would show up in such a short amount of time is worrysome. However, what is more troubling is that you did so completely unnoticed." Renamon said

"I went through the permanent gate; I did not want to draw attention to myself by bioemerging."

"None the less the fact that you arrived so quickly confirms some of our suspicions. If we are going to protect Alex and Kudamon then we need to know as much about our enemy as possible." Rika said

"Very well, I will tell what I know on one condition." "Name it."

Dianamon took a steadying breath. "I want to stay here and look after my Oto-chan and, if you" "Done"

Dianamon blinked for a second "Just like that?" "Just like that."

"Thank you…I only know so much but I will tell you everything."

"Not now, tomorrow is early enough. Renamon and I are not the only ones involved in this. It'll be easier if you tell everyone when we get together tomorrow."

"So be it, then I will stay in his room and watch over him tonight."

Rika nodded her approval and went back inside. Dianamon stood and picked up her weapon. She went back into Alex's room and took up a defensive stance. Renamon stood there watching her from the shadows. If Renamon revealed herself she would be struck down in an instant. She phased back into Rika's room and found her sleeping peacefully once more. The morning would bring many things with it and Renamon knew a distressed Rumiko would be at the top of the list. It was not a situation she was looking forward to because Rumiko had not kept her promise to Rika.

I was dreaming I had to be. I was watching myself on that day. That day was when everything changed. Kudamon was there standing beside me, I wasn't alone when I watched it this time. This time everything was clearer. That's when I started to remember, I had been standing in a digital field. The fog was thin and I could see clearly, even on that day.

I saw a Tamer and his Digimon were fighting an impossible battle, his Angemon couldn't hope to beat the Infermon. I had no time to think, I just acted. It was blistering hot but I felt frozen as I crossed the distance in a matter of seconds. From our position as observers we saw the ice breaking through my right arm, the cause of the scars. My skin paled and my fist connected with the Infermon's side. Ice rapidly spread across its surface and it shattered. The Tamer and his digimon fled before the ambulance arrived but when he was out of sight a red furred Kudamon came into sight.

I knew instantly who it was. I smiled, even before he saved my life he had been looking out for me. He curled up on my chest and I could see the color returning to my skin as his fur became its normal white. Once he was sure I was alive he left. I knew what this meant, he was the bridge to Muspellheim the world of fire and I was the bridge to Niflheim the world of ice.

It was 9:50 in the morning and the sun was shining brightly in the clear blue sky. Everyone was gathered in the garden talking to Dianamon. She was about to tell them what she knew of the threat that faced them and their new friends. She opened her mouth to speak but before she could they heard someone humming. Alex, in his human form walked out into the garden looking refreshed. Memory and a good night's sleep can work wonders but this was ridiculous. He waved cheerily at everyone as he walked up.

"Good morning Onee-chan," he said giving Dianamon a hug "good morning everyone. I'm going out for some exercise." He added

"You can't!" Rika shouted "You just got up there's no way you can be in any shape to do something like that!"

He broke of his hug and shook his head "IN this world of nothingness that rises out of an endless dream, it seems as though our beloved desires will lose, but even with these unreliable wings, covered in images that tend to stay I'm sure we can fly." he said in a double voice

Then he jumped clear over the house and its outer wall. Everyone stood there stunned at the impossible feat he just performed. It was possible for some Digimon like Dianamon or Sakuyamon. But, for a human such a feat should be beyond their physical capabilities. Surprisingly it was Kazu that brought everyone back to reality.

"We have to go after him!" He said as he ran and climbed onto Gaurdromon

Rika, Takato, and Henry biomerged into Sakuyamon, Gallantmon, and MegaGargomon. Dianamon took off over the roof tops chasing the trail of energy Alex was leaving in his wake. There was no way he should have been able to move as fast as he was. She managed to catch sight of him and saw that he was jumping from building side to building side passing over the busy city streets. Again this was something that she knew was completely impossible for a normal human. That's when she felt a prickling on the back of her neck as a digital field sprang up some 500 feet ahead of Alex.

He landed in the middle of the road and jumped again. She watched in awe as ice began covering his right arm. The Digimon in the field had finished bioemerging and a strong breeze picked up blowing away the fog. Standing in the center of the field was a SkullMeramon who immediately began attacking cars. Alex was on a direct course for it.

"Imperial Glacier!" Alex yelled as he swung his right fist forward. Ice began shooting from his fist. It was not chunks and chips but a solid mass. SkullMeramon didn't stand a chance. He was soon completely incased in miniature glacier and when it shattered, so did he.

"How did he do that?" Dianamon looked over her shoulder and saw Sakuyamon bounding over the rooftops to her left.

"I don't know, but if I had to guess I'd say Alex is the bridge to Niflheim the world of ice. I already know Kudamon is the bridge to Muspellheim which is the world of fire." Dianamon said to her

They landed on the road next to Alex. He was completely oblivious to them and was busily checking his right arm. As they drew within arm's length of each other he looked up. He smiled happily at seeing them. They stood there and waited for everyone to arrive.

"I only won because I got the drop on him. He wasn't expecting to be attacked so soon, let alone by a human." Alex said

"How did you know he was coming? We could tell until just before the digital field formed" MegaGargomon asked

"I'm a bridge between three worlds, as soon as something attempts to force its way into one of them I can tell where it's at." He said simply

"What do you mean a bridge between worlds?" Gallantmon asked him

"Not here," Dianamon cut in "it would be best if went back to Rika's to discuss this turn of events."

As we were leaving the press began showing up. They would be just in time to make the ten o'clock news bulletins. I could practically hear the constant clicking of the camera shutters behind us. My senses seemed to be some much clearer now almost like they were stronger. We made it back to Rika's home and the first thing I did was eat. From my seat in the kitchen I was able to hear Dianamon, my Onee-chan, speaking clearly.

"The group of Digimon that are after Alex and Kudamon are known as The Guardians. Though why we called ourselves that is beyond me. I did hear what it was we were guarding though, I heard Magnamon call it the Quadrant Gate. The only ones besides Magnamon to actually see this 'Gate' were Oto-chan, Crusadermon, Alphamon, and Omnimon. Of the five the only one to actually go through the gate was Omnimon, he wasn't around half the time because he was on the other side of it. Oto-chan was usually guarding the gate but he would always set up pranks to amuse himself when someone came to relieve him. He may have been a Mega physically but mentally."

"I heard that!"

Onee-chan giggled at my outburst. "Well you're not denying it Oto-chan. Anyway on more than one occasion he was able to see through the gate when Omnimon returned. That's probably one reason they want him back. The other reason has to do with Alex. The two of them are bridges to a pair of supernatural worlds. Alex is the bridge to the world of ice and mist Niflheim and Oto-chan is the bridge to the world of fire Muspellheim."

"We figured that out last night." I said

"How?"

"I…I had a dream…a dream about the day I died. As it turns out I wasn't hit by anything what hurt my arm and killed me was…well…me. What you saw me do today, I did that on the day I died. But…I couldn't control it and it tore up my arm and started to freeze me from the inside. Then Kudamon came and used fire from Muspellheim to close the gate I was using and thaw out the parts of my body that had frozen. The problem was that he had to wait about half an hour before he could do that which is why I died."

"Can you tell us more about the Gate itself and what's on the other side of it?" Jeri asked

"I can but it's not much."

"Every little bit helps."

"Well…I couldn't see distinct things just silhouettes but I could hear things being said on the other side when the Gate was open. I'll start with what the exactly the Gate is. It's a way to get from the area ruled by one sovereign to an area ruled by another. The Gate we were headquartered at was the one between Zhuqiaomon's area and Azulongmon's area. Whenever the gate was open I could see lots of Digimon and on more than one occasion I saw the silhouettes of several humans. Those words I spoke before I left earlier, I heard someone singing them in a song the last time I was by the gate when it was open. The day I gave up my powers and saved Alex."

"Wait a second," Rika said "you heard those words in a song?"

"Yeah, why?" "Follow me"

She led us into the family room. She turned on the TV and switched it over to the input channel. She searched through the cabinet beneath the TV and pulled out a DVD. She turned on the DVD player and put the disk in. She scrolled through the menus until she found what she was looking for and pushed play. I had no idea why she was doing this until a song started playing, a VERY familiar song.

"Th-that's the song I heard, but how?"

"This brings up more questions than it answers." Kenta said

"It means one of two things. It either means everything in the shows is and was real, or that the humans that normally have access to Azulongmon's area have Digimon stuff in their world." Rika said

"Hmm…let me see some stills of their Digimon and I might be able to determine for sure which it is."

"Have at it, we'll be outside"

"Got it, oh and don't let me sit here too long." "We won't"


Gotcha didn't I. Bet ya'll thought the Digimon would be Crusadermon. Unfortunately I know basically nothing about Data Squad other than the names of some of the Digimon. No another Gallantmon will not be appearing because Guilmon is one of a kind.

Later ^^;
