AN: Sorry I had not time to respond to reviewers. With winter quarter starting I had to spend my time getting ready.

At fifteen years old Daisuke Motomiya had matured only in the eyes of his friends. To everyone else he was a loud teenager with a streak of getting lucky. Coming out of his schools locker room, Daisuke sat on a bench as he faced the football field. Wearing black shorts, a blue t-shirt, and his priced goggles, Daisuke looked almost the same as he did four years ago. Feeling his legs crashing on him Daisuke saw as his back bag began to move. Unzipping it his partner, Chibimon, popped out, headfirst, and jumped onto his partners arms.

"Hey there, Daisuke!" Chibimon greeted eagerly. "Why do you look so down?"

"I'm not down," he responded, dully. "It's just that after that practice, all I want to do is go home and lie down, and possibly take a bath."

"Then why don't you go already? I've got stuff to do to you know."

"Didn't you hear me? I said I'm tired!"

Lying down on the bench both Daisuke and Chibimon looked up at the night sky, trying to relax. The starts had a calming effect on Daisuke for a reason that he did not understand. The only thing that he knew was that, when ever he looked at them aimlessly, he would think about nothing in particular, but would sometimes think about his past adventures. He remembered the first time that he did this; it was right after the battle with BelialVamdemon on New Years Eve when he first looked up at them without thinking about much.

"Daisuke," wined his partner. "Are you done yet?"

"Have you always complained this much, or are you just doing what you've always been doing?"

"Maybe it's a little of both."

"Do you ever have an answer for anything?"

Chibimon had a blank stare.

"Guess not."

Getting up Daisuke was gathering his belongings. As his partner was watching him Daisuke turned around rapidly.

"What is it Daisuke?' questioned Chibimon.

"Nothing." Daisuke responded slowly. "I guess it was just the wind."

Walking closer to his partner, Chibimon decided that it was time to question his partner, "You know, Daisuke, you've been acting really...different lately."

"What do you mean, different?" questioned Daisuke.

"You've been acting all depressed lately. What happened to that boy who was always trying to find the next adventure?"

"He sort of died when he realized that there was no more adventures."

"But, Daisuke, what about that saying that life's an adventure."

"That maybe so, but that does not mean that it is any where near as exiting as the digital world." As both partner and digimon continued talking, Daisuke continued to once again hear something that caught his attention. "Chibimon, did you hear that?"

"Hear what Daisuke?"

"That voice!"

"Daisuke, I think that you need to rest."

"I guess you're right."

Sitting down on the bench once again the maroon haired boy decided to gather his thoughts. Sitting down on the bench once again he was certain that he had cleared his head. Gathering his belonging once again Daisuke was certain that he was ready to go until he heard the voice once again.

"You who once opened the digimental of miracles, you and your partner are needed in our world."

"Chibimon," said a troubled Daisuke, "please tell me you heard that?"

"I think that I did," responded Chibimon as he climbed his partner's shoulder.

Looking around their surrounding area both were trying to find just where the voice came from. As they both looked around a strange light that glowed inside Daisuke's bag back grabbed their attention. Walking closer to it, they looked inside it only to realize that the light was being emitted from Daisuke's D-3.

"Why do you think that it is glowing like that?" Asked the curious Chibimon.

"I don't know," said Daisuke as he reached for his D-3.

Grabbing it, Daisuke felt something that he had never felt before. He could not really explain it, but even though it felt unlike anything that he had ever felt before, it also had a familiar feeling that reminded him of something. Continuing to exam his D-3 closer, he was shocked when it released an excessive amount of light. Trying to let go of it he felt that the digivice was glued to his hand. When the light did seize he noticed that he was holding onto something completely different from his D-3. Rather than it being a device with curves, it was instead rectangular with the screen on top. Though it was mostly blue, it had a solid gold top.

"Daisuke, what is that?"

"I'm not exactly sure, Chibimon." Answered Daisuke as he touched his device with his right hand.

With his hands on the device the chosen of courage and friendship continued to feel something familiar. He knew that he had felt it before, but he just was not sure when or where. Looking at the device he knew that it was similar to his D-3, but also knew that it was different.

Wait a minute thought Daisuke Didn't Hikari's and Takeru's original digivices turn into D-3's when they opened their digimentals. So could this mean that there is a new enemy attacking the digital world? I wonder if the other's digivices transformed?

Thinking about the possibilities Daisuke was surprised when his newly transformed digivice shot out a golden light that went right past his shoulders. Feeling his shoulder get lighter, Daisuke turned around to realize that Chibimon had fallen to the ground. Dropping his newly transformed digivice Daisuke kneeled down to check on Chibimon. Seeing his partner on the floor he realized that his whole body had turned from blue to gold. Worst of all, Daisuke saw that Chibimon was in pain.

"Dais...ke"

"What is it, Chibimon?" Asked the troubled boy.

"My body... It burns!"

Watching his partner in pain Daisuke, not being certain on the correct actions, grabbed his partner and placed him in a tight hug, close to his chest. "Don't worry, Chibimon, I'm sure that it will be alright."

"But it hurts!" Hearing his partner cry out in pain Daisuke felt completely useless. There was nothing he could do to help him out. If he tried telling him again that everything would turn out okay he would not be sure if he was lying or not. But it pained him to watch him like that. Deciding that Koushiro would probably be best in the situation the maroon haired boy reached for his D-terminal. Typing out his message Daisuke knew that this was not his day when his D-terminal turned off on him.

"What?!" screamed an agitated Daisuke. "Stupid thing, why must you stop working now of all times?"

Looking around he saw that the digivice that he dropped was sending out a large amount of electricity. Not certain whether to walk away or to check it out, Daisuke just stayed there, not knowing what to do. Looking at the electric field that had been created by the digivice, Daisuke saw that it was increasing in size. Continuing to look around at the electric field he felt a sort of warm and friendly energy coming from it. At that point, the bearer of the digimentals of friendship and courage knew that the voice from earlier had come from inside there.

Damn! What do I do now? If I leave, then this thing might continue to expand but if I stay here, something might happen to Chibimon. But that voice, I'm certain that it came from inside there. They said something about needing my help, but do I just walk in there, or what?

The situation was not the best one in his current situation. His partner was injured, his D-3 had transformed, and the electric field in front of himself was continuing to expand. This was a hard decision to make because all of his choices involved doing something that had an unknown consequence. Still trying to decide what to do a large axe-wielding creature emerged from inside the electrical field.

"No! This is no time for a random digimon attack!" Shouted Daisuke.

"Dais...ke." Chibimon said still in pain. "That's Boltmon. He's an Ultimate level digimon."

"And to think that I thought this day couldn't get worst after practice."

Seeing Daisuke and Chibimon in front of him the invading Boltmon charged right at them. Swinging the large axe down at the two Daisuke was able to dodge the attack. Noticing that Boltmon was angry Daisuke ran away, with Chibimon still in his arms. Being offended that they did not die Boltmon lifted his axe and began chasing them again. I can't let Boltmon go into the middle of Odaiba without a digimon that can fight against him. And if I continue to run, then he might destroy the whole school.

Considering his options Daisuke knew that he would have to go inside the electrical field, and make sure he took the Boltmon with him. Taking another heavy swing at them Daisuke managed to get move both of them out of the way. Changing his direction Daisuke ran towards the electrical field and made sure that Boltmon was following him. Reaching it earlier than Boltmon the maroon haired boy waited for the large digimon to get close. Seeing the Boltmon running towards him Daisuke was still not certain about the actions that he needed to take, but knew that he had to act. Seconds before Boltmon swung his axe Daisuke jumped back into the electrical field, and was soon followed by the large digimon.

The place where he was now in was in the shape of a tunnel. Daisuke felt that he was inside a hurricane; with the way the walls were spinning. Examining the area around him Daisuke felt relieved when he did not see the rampaging Boltmon. But as he looked down at his arms he saw that his partner was not there. Looking around, he was not certain if his partner had come with him. "Chibimon!"

No sound came. Floating through the tunnel Daisuke could not help but feel like he was being watched. Floating through the mysterious tunnel Daisuke was certain that someone was watching him. His suspicions were confirmed when right in front of him appeared one of V-mon's armor evolutions; the golden warrior, Magnamon. Daisuke immediately recognized the golden armor the digimon wore. Though he only got one good glimpse at him when he first caused his evolution Daisuke knew that he would never forget the golden warrior who helped save the day during one of its darker times.

Looking into the eyes of Magnamon Daisuke knew that this was not his partner. No, this one seemed to have the eyes of someone that was the complete opposite of the V-mon that was his partner. While the V-mon he knew was energetic, happy, and friendly, this Magnamon appeared to be serious and battle ready. Though he had that stern look in his eyes Daisuke knew that he was able to trust the armored digimon.

With Magnamon grabbing Daisuke's hands he placed an object that Daisuke recognized as the newly transformed digivice.

"This will allow you to harness the power of your digisoul." said Magnamon, letting go of Daisuke's hand.

"Digisoul?" Asked Daisuke.

But as he was trying to get answers on what exactly a digisoul was, he was distracted when his body began emitting a golden aura. This feeling... He thought. Looking at his body as much as possible Daisuke felt like he could take on the world. The aura that was surrounding his body seemed to have fully restored him to the way he used to be. It was assuring to Daisuke that a whole new adventure was about to begin. With the golden aura surrounding his body Daisuke moved forward, knowing that whatever awaited him on the other side would be what he was looking for.

"Digisoul charge! Overdrive!" Said Magnamon.

Focusing his attention back up, Daisuke saw that Magnamon was not there anymore. Wait! Where did he go?

He had disappeared. The only thing that Daisuke knew about where he was going was that it involved something called digisoul. However, he would not get the chance to think about his current predicament. Contemplating the situation he felt a large thump on his back that nearly caused him to pass out. Opening his eyes he was immediately greeted by V-mon.

"Hey there, Daisuke!" He greeted the maroon haired boy.

"V-mon!" He immediately responded. "Is that really you?"

"Why wouldn't it be me, Daisuke?"

Getting up Daisuke began trying to make sense of what just happened. "It's just that I met your alter ego in that tunnel."

"What tunnel?"

"You know," responded a confused Daisuke, "the one we came through in order to get here." An even more confused V-mon was left silent. "I guess that it was just a dream then." Daisuke responded. Looking down at his hand, he saw the digivice that had replaced his former one. Remembering just what had happened at the school, Daisuke thought about the golden light that had hit Chibimon. "Hey, V-mon, are you feeling better now?"

"Better about what?" He questioned.

"You know, a golden light shot out from my digivice and then you were in the floor, crying in pain."

"I was not crying in pain!" Responded the energetic V-mon. "I would like to see you not be the way I was, feeling like your insides are on fire." This time, it was Daisuke that remained silent. "And as for the pain, it just faded away as soon as we arrived here."

With his back beginning to ache, Daisuke know wondered just how his digimon had evolved. "Another question; how did you evolve to V-mon?"

"I was like this when I woke up."

"This place is weird."

Finally standing up Daisuke began noticing just where they landed. It was in the middle of a forest with trees larger than the ones he was accustomed to seeing. Though it was nighttime in his world, he was now under the blue sky. Inspecting the leafs closer, he saw they were not round like he expected, but instead appeared to be made up of squares. The bark of the trees also appeared to be softer than the ones were he came from. Looking at a nearby river, he also made out that the water was also made up of squares.

"This feels like I'm inside a video game or something," said Daisuke as he continued to inspect the world he was in. Though the imagery was one of the things that Daisuke noticed, what caught his attention more than anything was that there was no smell. It did not really bother Daisuke, but it did make it uneasy for him to be there. This one little detail was enough to tell him that, while he was in the digital world, he was in a different one. Continuing to walk through the large forest Daisuke once again noticed something that he had missed the first time. "Hey, where's Boltmon?"

"Oh. That green guy." Answered V-mon. "I haven't seen him since we first got here."

"Well I guess that's something to be grateful for." With both chosen and digimon walking through the forest they saw many digimon that they had never seen before, plus many others that they were all too familiar with. Somehow, Daisuke was not worried that he was in an unknown place with no way of getting back to his home. Deep in his heart, he knew that he was needed in this place and, whatever challenge it threw at him, Daisuke knew that he and V-mon would come out on top.

"Daisuke," said V-mon, "do you hear that?"

Paying closer attention Daisuke heard the sound that V-mon was talking about, and knew just where it was coming from. Coming out from behind the trees was the same digimon that chased them there, Boltmon. Looking at Boltmon's face both human and partner were certain that he was now more aggressive than he was before. As Boltmon began running towards the two Daisuke knew that, though the odds were not in their favor, they would have to stay there and fight.

"V-mon, let's take this guy down!"

"Right!"

With his partner agreeing Daisuke pointed his newly transformed digivice at V-mon, only to see nothing happen. With Boltmon finally reaching them they were both able to dodge the giant axe.

"V-mon!" Daisuke said as they started running. "Why can't you evolve?"

"I'm not really sure, Daisuke." V-mon responded. "But I think that it has something to do with the digivice."

Still running from the rampaging Boltmon Daisuke began looking at the digivice. Examining the structure of it Daisuke wondered why he would receive something that had no use. Due to the quick thinking situation that he was in Daisuke had no time to figure out why his digivice was not allowing V-mon to evolve. Passing all the trees Daisuke saw a huge rock that gave him an idea that would make things slightly easier for them.

"V-mon, let him catch up a bit." Daisuke said sounding sure he knew what he was doing.

Looking at his partner the little blue dragon was not so sure that Daisuke was right on this. After all, they were being chased by a digimon with a giant axe that would tear them apart if he caught up with them. But he could not evolve to XV-mon and, even if he could, he would not stand a chance against him. Hearing Boltmon scream in anger V-mon thought it would be best to do as his partner asked.

Realizing that he was catching up to the humans Boltmon sped up to the point where he was only a few feet away from them. With the axe right above him V-mon still had his doubts about his partners plan.

"Daisuke," the worried V-mon said, "I hope you have a plan."

"Just be ready to act when I say so."

Getting nearer to a giant mountain-like rock serving as a roadblock V-mon felt his trust for his partner diminishing slightly. Seconds before they hit the rock the blue digimon saw Boltmon's shadow and got worried as he saw him swinging his axe forward.

"To the side!" Daisuke ordered as he dragged V-mon by the arm off to the side.

The resulting action caused Boltmon to hit the rock in front of them, causing the axe to get stuck there. Realizing that he was now weaponless, both Daisuke and V-mon felt a bit more confident about being able to win.

"Alright, V-mon!" Daisuke exclaimed enthusiastically. "Let's try this one more time!"

"Right," V-mon responded.

"Evolve!" Daisuke said, pointing his transformed digivice at his partner. Again, nothing happened.

"Daisuke..." V-mon was now worried.

They were in trouble, and Daisuke knew it. Watching Boltmon trying to pull the axe away allowed the chosen of courage and friendship to try and think of a plan in defeating him. Unfortunately, nothing came to mind. Trying to run would only make the situation worst than it all ready was. And if he stayed there he already knew what would happen to him.

Talk about Catch-22 he thought as he was examining the hopeless situation.

Realizing that the axe was stuck, Boltmon left it there and faced off against his prey.

"Daisuke, I think that he looks angrier than before."

V-mon was right, the angered Boltmon now appeared ready to eat, them rather than just kill them. Daisuke knew that if he tried to run, they would eventually tire out and fighting him directly was out of the question.

...Harness the power of you Digisoul.

Remembering the words of Magnamon Daisuke knew what had to happen. He remembered that he was called to this world to save it, and knew that there would be harder challenges awaiting him. If he failed now there would be no telling what would happen. In his heart, Daisuke knew that he had to win here in order to do what he was chosen to do.

"Okay, V-mon, this guy isn't so tough!" The newly found confidence of his partner baffled the mind of V-mon. "Now," Daisuke continued by putting his hand on his digivice. "Digisoul charge! Overdrive!" Feeling the transformed digivice shake, Daisuke was certain that something was going to happen. After a while, nothing did. "How the hell do I make this thing work?!" Daisuke screamed in frustration.

Boltmon was not amused by this new outcome. All he really cared about was that he was about to destroy two things that had been annoying him all day. Though victory seemed impossible Daisuke still knew that he would somehow pull through at the end. With a large snort coming out seamlessly, all three turned their attention to the top of the rock. Continuing to watch they soon found out that, beneath the rock that Boltmon struck was, a giant sleeping dragon-dinosaur hybrid.

It was al roughly 60 feet tall, with a majority of its body covered in orange scales. Though it size was quite large and intimidating the large blades coming out of its back were what caught their attention.

"Who dares disturb my rest?" Said the prehistoric digimon.

Looking at his digivice Daisuke was able to confirm who this digimon was. "Spinomon, Ultimate level digimon. Virus."

Stepping up, Boltmon immediately challenged Spinomon to a fight. Raising up his arms the digimon was reading to attack.

"So it was you then," Spinomon said looking at his new challenger.

With this new turn of events, Daisuke thought that it might work in their favor. He knew that, if they fought each other, they might have a chance to get out of the situation, alive. Though his plan might have worked, he did not calculated for Spinomon to easily overpower Boltmon. Before the green digimon even reached the dinosaur digimon, Spinomon squashed Boltmon with one swoop of his hands. The resulting action caused a shock wave that knocked Daisuke down.

"Daisuke!" V-mon said reaching his fallen partner. "Are you okay?"

Daisuke did not answer. Spinomon had managed to take out the digimon they were having trouble fighting with a swing of his hand. The odds were completely against their favor. Their only hope of winning was not responding and, even if it did work, Daisuke and V-mon knew that it would not be enough to stop him.

"I see I have a human amongst my presence." Looking down at Daisuke, Spinomon eyed him curiously. "You humans have caused far to much trouble here. Every time that a human presents themselves to this world a series of deadly events occurs here."

"Look," Daisuke responded sounding confident, "we were forced to come to this world. We have no way of getting back home."

"Lies!" Spinomon screamed. "I have lost two great friends ever since you humans first came here!"

"Listen!" Daisuke responded fearlessly. "I don't know who you think we are, but we have just arrived here. I am one of the Chosen Children, it is my duty to protect the digital world!"

"A human protecting the digital world? Ha! That's laughable. We digimon are strong enough to not have any human doing our work."

"Look," interrupted V-mon, "I am Daisuke's partner and I can tell you first hand that Daisuke has saved this world more times than I can count."

"Another Digimon who sides with the humans?" Looking at V-mon, Spinomon felt complete hatred towards the small digimon.

"Wait!" said a surprised Daisuke. "Are you telling me that there are other Chosen in this world?"

"If you mean digimon that fight along side humans, then yes. There are quite a few of them around, but I have yet to actually face one. I hear that they are suppose to be stronger than us regular digimon, but I think it is a lie to try and make a strong warrior more submissive."

"Well then you're wrong!" Shouted a fired up V-mon. "Daisuke has made me who I am. Because of him, I was able to go beyond greatness."

"Ha! You partnered digimon and your claims. Mercurimon lost his life trying to defend you while SaberLeomon lost it trying to kill you. There is no right way to deal with you! All you humans do is bring about destruction."

"Look," responded Daisuke, "I am not like that. I would never harm a digimon that was trying to help humans."

"So you admit that you are willing to kill a digimon if it comes down to it?"

"If that's the case, then yeah."

Daisuke had no idea what he just said. In his world, a death digimon might eventually come back. But in this new world, when a digimon truly died, there was no way to ever bring them back again. Daisuke's choice of words would be a costly mistake on his part.

"Though you have the word of a warrior," said a calm Spinomon, "you have the heart of a savage barbarian!"
Finishing his sentence, Spinomon swung his giant claw right at them. Noticing the attack both were able to jump out of the way. Standing back up both of them saw that, with each passing second, the situation seemed less winnable.

"I've always wanted to fight against a digimon who sides with humans, and I get rewarded with this weakling? How pathetic!"

"I am not pathetic!" Exclaimed V-mon.

"I was referring to the human."

"Hey!" Said an annoyed V-mon. "You take that back."

"It's true. I once saw a human power up his digimon to an incredible level. This human, however... Let's just say he is low class."

"Daisuke..." V-mon could not believe it. The Daisuke he knew would never take such insults. But now here he was, taking the verbal blows without putting up a fight. Though he did not want to admit it, V-mon finally saw just how much his partner had changed.

"Though I should not blame the human after all, he does have you for a partner. Both of you must be grunts with the fighting sprit you have shown."

Hearing the insults something inside Daisuke caused him to snap, "That's it! I am sick and tired of hearing just how weak we humans are! Do you know how annoying your voice is? And how dare you insult V-mon! He is the best partner anyone could ever ask for because he's a real friend, something which you lack!"

"Listen, you insolent human! Your kind killed several of my friends!"

"There you go again," interrupted Daisuke. "Okay, we get it, my race killed your friends, but those were just a handful of people. We are not all the same! Just because someone looks similar does not mean they are the same! I'm pretty sure that another Spinomon out there is a nice one, and I will not immediately compare him to you."

"How dare you claim to know about digimon?"

"You insulted my friends," said Daisuke clutching his fist. "If I am a grunt, then what the hell does that make them? These goggles given to me symbolize that, under my leadership, nothing will go wrong." Placing his hand on his goggles, Daisuke felt fired up.

Whether it was the symbolist value of the goggles or whether it was something else will never be know. But the second that Daisuke placed his hand on the goggles he treasured a shining, golden aura surrounded his body. The magnificent color that came out of Daisuke's body was nothing short of eye catching. It was almost as if his spirit was what was radiating from his body. Though it shocked both Spinomon and V-mon Daisuke did not even notice it and made it seem as if it was natural.

"Daisuke...is that you?"

V-mon knew who he was looking at. It was not some depressed teenager that had Daisuke's identity. No, he this was Daisuke Motomiya, leader of the chosen. He was the one that brought courage and friendship together and took it to the next level. He was the one who looked fear in the eyes and said he would fight for his friends. He was the one who believed in the impossible. He was Daisuke Motomiya!

"Alright, V-mon, this guy insulted my team. If he insults my friends, then he insults both of us. You ready for this?"

At that moment, V-mon knew that any doubts he ever had were forever dismissed. Immediately he nodded, telling him he had absolute trust in him.

"Right then. Digisoul charge! Overdrive!"

Placing his hand on his digivice a golden light shot out from it and made contact with V-mon.

"V-mon, evolve to..." As V-mon's body became larger and more muscular, golden armor began appearing over him. V-mon, never feeling anything quite like this, knew that it was Daisuke's spirit that allowed him to achieve that power. Nothing came close to what he was feeling at the moment. Sure, this felt similar to being Imperialdramon, but this was something exclusively for him and Daisuke. "...Magnamon, the holy knight of miracles!"

Where the small, petite digimon once stood now stood the golden warrior, Magnamon. Though he looked the same he was several times bigger than the one Daisuke knew. While the other was a bit taller than an adult human this one was about 40 feet tall. Though he was shorter than Spinomon Daisuke knew that victory was assured.

"A chance to fight one of the Royal Knights that is partnered to a human, joy."

Not even waiting for him to finish speaking Magnamon dashed at his opponent and landed an uppercut on his extended chin.

"Daisuke's right." Magnamon responded. "You do talk too much."

Getting up Spinomon charged head first at Magnamon. Due to size difference Magnamon was able to slide under Spinomon, kicking his legs. With Spinomon facedown, on the floor, Magnamon grabbed his tail, lifted him up, and began swinging him. With enough velocity Magnamon threw Spinomon through the air. Due to Spinomon's weight he was not sent as far as Magnamon expected. Landing a short distance from Magnamon Spinomon got up once again and charged at his opponent. This time Spinomon crouched down more allowing him to go head to head against Magnamon. Locking arms, Magnamon knew that it would be foolish in trying to overpower him, so instead he charged up his armor and readied an attack.

"Plasma Shot."

Sending out a several shots of energy from all over his body they all caused Spinomon to let go. But, as luck had it, Spinomon managed to catch a charging Magnamon in his grips. Squashing him with both his hands Magnamon felt his whole body aching. Due to the pressure being applied to him it took Magnamon a while to realize that he had an open shot. As Magnamon fired golden bullets from his shoulders they caused Spinomon to release his opponent. Due to his thick hide Magnamon's attack only caused Spinomon to flinch. Gathering his stance Spinomon aimed the spikes on his back at the sky as they began to glow.

"Sonic Slash Rain!" He said as he fired several blades at the sky.

Eventually, those blades were redirected towards the ground and, as Magnamon noticed, they were aimed at Daisuke. Wasting no time, Magnamon positioned himself right above his partner, with his back facing the barrage of airborne blades. Feeling them all connect with the open part of his back Magnamon knew that this was what had to happen. With the blades subsiding, Spinomon attacked Magnamon, whose back was still turned in the opposite direction.

With Magnamon on the floor Spinomon dashed past Daisuke, jumped in the air, and landed on Magnamon's back. With the large digimon landing on him Magnamon felt the full force of Spinomon. He was definitely heavy; heavier than he looked, anyway. Jumping again Spinomon once again laded on the back of Magnamon, causing him more pain. Jumping up once again, Magnamon saw his opportunity to take action. With Spinomon still in the air Magnamon flew straight up, catching the dinosaur off guard. Connecting with his stomach Magnamon's punch sent out a large wave of energy showing the power it had.

Letting the Dinosaur digimon fall to the ground Magnamon once again began charging up his armor. But, before he even had a chance to launch his attack, Spinomon shot out a blue beam from his mouth, hitting the holy knight, sending him down. Looking up at the sky Magnamon witness as Spinomon once again leaped in the air and landed on top of him. With Spinomon's upper claws landing right on top of his biceps Magnamon screamed in pain.

Stretching his long neck, Spinomon placed his head right above Magnamon's. "You Royal Knights think that you can do whatever you want, don't you? Just because you have the power, and travel in numbers, you feel that you are unstoppable. Well then just look at you; I have nearly defeated the great Magnamon!" Magnamon was confused; he had no idea just who were they Royal Knights that he was talking about. Worst of all, Magnamon felt that he was being blamed for some act that he did not commit. "I should have known that the Royal Knights would betray us after all, they actually went against Yggdrasil himself in order to protect that world. That was when everything fell apart; we had no real ruler, thus every self-deserving digimon wanted to be at the top." Magnamon felt Spinomon's anger, feeling the claws going in deeper into his biceps. "Many digimon began fighting each other hoping to get the title of God. You know why? Because a human killed Yggdrasil!"

At that point Magnamon became weary about hearing the same thing over and over. Acting swiftly he pushed his arms up, freed them from the claws, slid under his opponent, and was once again in back of him. Seeing Magnamon going in back of him Spinomon quickly turned around only to have both his jaws forced open by Magnamon.

Placing his hand inside his mouth, Magnamon began charging up his attack. "Plasma Blast," he said as he released several beams of energy from his hand aimed at Spinomon's stomach. When his attack ceased, Spinomon body broke into pieces of data and eventually turned into a digitama. Knowing that he had won Magnamon reverted back to his child level, V-mon.

Walking closer to his partner, Daisuke examined the remaining digitama. "V-mon, is it natural for digimon to turn back into digitamas so soon?"

Looking at his partner, V-mon responded. "No, it's not. The time it takes for any normal digimon to go back does vary but still, it is rare when it is done this fast."

"So I guess that settles it," Daisuke said. "We are in a different world."

Picking up the digitama, Daisuke began examining the surrounding area.

"Daisuke, what are you doing?" Asked V-mon, looking at his partner in confusion.

"Spinomon has a hard time not hating humans. The least I can do to help him down the right path is to put him in a place where he cannot be reached by others attacking digimon."

Finally finding an empty cave, Daisuke put the digitama in an instant nest that he built in about a minute. Leaving the cave Daisuke knew for a fact that he did not know where he was. He did not even know what exactly he was doing there. But he was not scared after all, he did carry courage in his heart. Yet, walking towards an unknown direction, Daisuke could not help but wonder what awaited him beyond the horizon.

I was attacked by two digimon in less than an hour here. Do I really need to think what will really happen to me later on? Looking at his partner, walking by his side, Daisuke knew what awaited him. Nah! I don't need to think about that now because whatever awaits us we will have no problem taking it head on.
