New Threat, New Adventure
Ch 3: A Journey Beckons
By: Hazan_Z
################################
Summary of past events: As things seemed almost perfect for our friends, Leomon was actually going through a self-struggle to decide whether he should stay with his friends or leave to face his past. He finally made up his mind after the group threw him a little party for him, and much to his grief, he left at that same night. However, before he did, Chris caught him in the act and tried to stop him, but Leomon, after having no choice, knocked him down and tied him up to a tree so he wouldn’t make a fuss. Renamon then found the tied-up Chris hours later and to her shock realized what had happened and that Leomon had already left off for yet unknown reasons…
#################################
The next day morning…
Fairymon was getting out of the bathroom in her bathrobe after she had freshened herself up, but was then surprised by the sight of her dear Gazimon laying on the bed, a wide grin on his face and holding his erect prick with a paw.
“Check it out, babe. This is what they call a “morning wood” in the real world. It’s really stiffy too. Can you help me un-stiff it? Hmm?” the gray Digimon winked at her, stroking his own hard-on slowly and showing it off to her.
“Aw, but I just finished brushing my teeth!” complained Fairymon.
“Oh, just for a little bit! It’s really bothering me and refuses to listen to me! Please? It really likes you, y’know?” Gazimon begged and Fairymon rolled her eyes with sigh.
“Oh, alright,” she finally gave in. “But don’t get pushy. Just once is enough, for both of us.” Knowing Gazimon, she knew how one orgasm couldn’t be satisfying enough for him, but he didn’t object and agreed on her condition.
“Whatever you say, luv. Just c’mere,” Gazimon snickered and gestured for her to rest beside him on top of the bed, getting quite excited. Fairymon giggled by his charming eagerness and disrobed herself from the bathrobe, letting it fall down to the floor just as she tugged away the waist belt. That was always enough for Gazimon to leave him gawking at her naked beauty like a mindless zombie, getting even harder than before.
She smiled at him, climbing on top of the bed, and sat next to the horny bunny, giving his furry head a gentle ruffle and then sliding her hand down to his chest and stopping right at his erect penis, making Gazimon groan by her touch. A grin spread on her face as she felt his warm meat between her fingers and she gave it a good few strokes to get things started. Gazimon couldn’t contain himself and his deep grunts proved how much he was enjoying this, making himself more comfortable by leaning back on his paws. Her sensual strokes didn’t last for long though, as the first droplet of pre that leaked from the tip of his cock signaled for her to lean her face down to his crotch and give the head a slurpy lick, shooting a shuddering jolt through Gazimon’s body and causing him to hiss loudly. She then slurped his dick into her mouth, and with a loud gasp from him, she began to suck on it deeply, lathering her tongue around the hot cock to increase the pleasure.
Gazimon was endlessly moaning in bliss by how wonderful Fairymon was blowing him, engulfing his whole length inside her warm mouth and sucking on it so skillfully, his ballsack slapping at her bottom lips and chin whenever she pulled in only helped stimulating him further.
Naturally, Fairymon wouldn’t want him to have all the pleasurable fun for himself for too long, as she pulled his throbbing cock out of her mouth just when Gazimon was enjoying it the most. He let out a whiny groan; little more hard suckles and he would’ve surely hit his desirable orgasm.
“What gives?” he complained.
Fairymon giggled. “Remember what I said. Just once, for the both of us,” she reminded him with a seductive wink and then sat up on the bed, turning herself around and bending over on all four. Gazimon’s eyes and smile became all wide from joyfulness, getting her meaning. He hurriedly stood up on his feet and moved into the necessary position, standing right behind the bowed Fairymon’s rear. Fortunately for Gazimon, he was tall enough for his crotch to meet hers, so he had no much trouble getting his stiff member into her vagina without having to raise himself up. He didn’t need to damp her cunt; his own cock lubed enough with her saliva and his own pre. Not wasting another moment, Gazimon held up his slick and dripping member and pointed at her pussy, purring and pushing it in whole in the first thrust.
Fairymon moaned from the sudden insertion, clutching the bed sheets with her fingers, but didn’t show any sign of pain whatsoever. She just relaxed her muscles as his cock slid into her rather easily, the warmness and tightness bringing even more sensitivity to the invading meat. Both Digimon groaned in pleasure as Gazimon thrust in hard and deep, him enjoying the length of the fairy’s hole. Gazimon placed his paws on her slim hips as he thrust in; his wideness rather seeming to send Fairymon into a fit of moans and pants. Both began to sweat from their brows, Gazimon’s fast, rhythmic thrusts began to increase in speed, his groans rising slightly above that of Fairymon as his pre soaked the wet inner walls of his beloved even more.
Gazimon’s voice quivered as he kept humping her, placing one of his paws across Fairymon’s soft back. He grunted softly as he eased himself most of the way out. He then growled out softly, flexing his fingers over the smooth skin, getting really close to climax.
Fairymon whimpered lightly and did her best to maintain the right position, but Gazimon’s harsh thrusts made her lean on forward. His thrusting now came at a full powered pace, so hard that Fairymon had to wince for a moment to get used to it. Her nails dug into the sheets, at the moment, Gazimon seemed almost feral; the heavy feeling in his balls would not be satisfied any other way now, he had to release.
At last, the pleasure building in Gazimon body caused him to bent backward and let out a loud and deep groan. Fairymon yowled loudly, as it was quickly followed by Gazimon’s hot cum. The liquid poured into her body, and splashed against Fairymon’s interiors. Gazimon’s growled loudly, enjoying his satisfying release, as Fairymon shivered to the sensation and tossed her head up, joining Gazimon’s moan with her own; her own cum pouring out of her pushy in heavy floods, which splashed against her and Gazimon’s groin.
Fairymon almost lost her footing, but recovered and laid herself onto the comfy bed, panting and moaning, as Gazimon lied on top of her. They glanced at each other, sharing a similar smile of satisfaction.
“I hope that was good enough for you…” Fairymon whispered as she recovered a little, turning around to cuddle up her short-sized lover. Gazimon couldn’t reply with anything except an obvious and happy nod, as Fairymon giggled and pulled him for a soft kiss on the lips.
####################################
“Black, are you in there?” Angewomon knocked on BlackWarGreymon’s bedroom door. Not getting an answer, she entered and didn’t find a single soul inside. That troubled Angewomon; BlackWarGreymon would be usually still asleep at this hour. She wanted to ask him if he knew anything about Leomon’s unexpected leaving, and now she couldn’t seem to find him anywhere around his mansion.
“Where could…? Hm?” she wondered, and then glimpsed a piece of paper placed on his mattress. She picked it up and saw that it was a note, left behind by BlackWarGreymon no doubt. Getting a bit anxious, Angewomon began to read the note’s content.
“Hey Angie. I knew you’d be the one who’ll find this letter. And if you aren’t Angie, then… well, whatever. Anyway, by the time you read this, I’ll be far away in the other lands, and most probably Leomon too. I can’t explain why exactly am I doing this right now. All I am going to say is to please forgive Leomon. He didn’t have a choice. I know it’s difficult for any of you to understand, but that’s why I’m going after him. This issue’s kinda personal, we didn’t want to get any of you involved. Though, I doubt that you guys will just sit there and do nothing about it. Don’t worry and leave it to me. I can handle this on my own, I’ll bring him back. You guys just wait for us to come back, ok? Don’t miss us much, it won’t take long.
Yours truly,
BlackWarGreymon”
“Idiot…” Angewomon breathed in a mix of anger and sadness, her hands twitching as she held the letter. She then stormed out of the room, taking the note with her and headed to Fairymon’s house.
###############################
At Fairymon’s, Gazimon was getting out from the bathroom from having a good shower after that enjoyable time he had with his sweetheart, humming pleasantly to himself.
“Ahhh, nothing’s better than a hot shower after a satisfying relief…” he sighed with a smirk on his face as he stepped out of the bathroom. But what he didn’t expect was finding Angewomon barging into the place all of the sudden, taking him off guard as he yelped his heart out and covered himself with a towel.
“Angie! What’re you doin’?! I'm naked here!”
Angewomon just rolled her eyes, “Gazimon, you're always naked.”
Gazimon looked at her with a bland expression, “Uhh, true… But what if I had my privates hanging out?!”
Angewomon rolled her eyes again, “Save it, Gazi. You’re not the first one. Look, forget about that, I'm here to talk with you and fairy, we have a serious situation here.”
“Huh? What’s wrong?”
“Before that, where’s Fairymon?”
“Uh, she’s taking a shower right now.”
“Could you please tell her to hurry?”
“Um, sure, sure. Just a sec…” Gazimon nodded and rushed back to the bathroom to get Fairymon, so that Angewomon could explain to them what had happened to their friends.
###########################
Meanwhile, at Renamon’s house…
“He did WHAT!?” Hasan gasped those words when Gomamon told him all about what happened last night.
“I was as shocked as you… but that’s what really happened. I was asleep at the time and couldn’t do anything about it… I’m sorry…” Gomamon dangled his head jadedly.
“It’s not your fault, Gomamon. No need to be sorry for anything,” Chris replied, wiping his glasses with a handkerchief while sitting on a sofa.
“But, why? Why would Leomon do such a thing? He was totally okay yesterday. I just don’t get it,” Hasan said, completely confused. “Aw man… what about Renamon?” he inquired and Gomamon solemnly turned his head to face Renamon’s room.
“She’s in there since last night…” Gomamon muttered.
“I figured so…” Hasan sighed.
“I don’t blame her,” Chris said. “But at least she wasn’t knocked out cold and tied up to a tree in the cold night for several hours. If he thinks he’ll be getting away with this, he’ll have another thing coming for him,” Chris added and adjusted his glasses before his eyes. He sure didn’t seem to be in his best of moods, not after what Leomon had done to him last night. Hasan realized that and understood how Chris must be feeling at the moment. He didn’t want to make it any worse than it was and didn’t go much into the details of how it happened.
“I’ll go see how’s Renamon doing,” Hasan said and was about to do so, but the arrival of the rest of the gang postponed that.
“Hey guys! You’re finally here!” Gomamon cheerfully proclaimed.
“Yup, heard ‘bout what happened,” Gazimon replied.
“And I still can’t believe it. Why would Leomon and Black leave just like that?” Fairymon followed and stunned Hasan, Chris and Gomamon.
“Black? Black left too?” Chris questioned in a surprise.
“Yes… I found this letter in his room,” Angewomon answered and handed them BlackWarGreymon’s note for them to read.
“Oh, this is just great! First Leomon, now Black?! What the hell is going on!? Are we missing something here?!” Hasan exclaimed in disbelief.
“I did notice them both acting a bit strange yesterday… right after Leomon had returned from his cabin at the mountain to be precise. Did something happen back there?” Angewomon wondered.
“Nothing that I’m aware of. Then again, Leomon would’ve hid it from us, no doubt,” Chris replied firmly.
“What about Renamon? She might have an idea,” Gazimon pointed out.
“I don’t think she’s available right now…” Gomamon unfortunately replied.
“Hm, what do you mean?” Fairymon asked.
“She locked herself in her room, didn’t come out all night,” Hasan said.
“Oh, poor thing… she must be taking it awfully hard…” Fairymon sympathetically said and Gomamon nodded sadly.
“She didn’t have anything to eat either…” Gomamon stated.
“Oh, I know what we can do to cheer her up! I’ll make her a nice breakfast, you guys go and try to lift her chin up!” Fairymon then excitedly suggested.
“Sounds like a plan, Fairymon. Let me get her,” smiled Hasan and went over to Renamon’s room, knocking on the door, “Renamon, are you up? It’s me, your dear partner,” he called out, but didn’t get any response. “Renamon… are you okay? I’m coming in.” he tried to open the door, but it was locked tight from the inside. “Oh-kay… this isn’t working. You can come out now, Renamon. Your friends are here to see you.” He tried again but still no reply, and that started to get him worried.
“Um, do you think that… she might’ve done something stupid?” Gomamon anxiously mentioned.
“Don’t be silly, Goma! She wouldn’t… would she?”
“She can be a little nutty sometimes…” Chris added.
“Aw hell! Open the door, Renamon!” Hasan shouted and bounded his fist on the door.
“Allow me.” Angewomon stepped next to him and grabbed the doorknob, giving it a strong twist and easily breaking the lock. Opening the door at last, they found the fox Digimon lying on her bed on her side, a pillow rested over her head and not moving a muscle. They hurried over to her and hoped they weren’t too late.
“No, Renamon!” Hasan pulled the pillow away and revealed that she was fully awake, glaring back at them with an annoyed scowl.
“What!?” Renamon hissed.
“‘What?’ Is that all what you can say?! You freaked us out back there! Why didn’t you answer?!” her partner snapped at her.
“We thought you were in danger!” Gomamon followed.
“Why would I be in danger?” Renamon blinked as she sat up on her bed.
“We thought… well, never mind. Thank god you’re okay,” Hasan breathed in relief.
“Sorry if I have worried you. Can you please leave now? I wanna be alone…” Renamon said grimly and returned to lie on her bed, covering her face with the pillow, which had been apparently soaked wet with her tears.
“Come on, Renamon. You’ve been like this all night,” Gomamon hopped onto the bed and consoled her.
“And I don’t plan to do anything else. Please, just leave me alone,” Renamon muffled out from under the pillow.
“Stop moping around and get up. Your friends have come here to see you and that’s how you show your gratitude?” her partner scolded her after pulling away her pillow.
“I didn’t ask you to come! I don’t want your pity!” the yellow vixen replied sternly, stunning them.
“B-But… we’re not here to pity you, Renamon. We understand how you feel and…” Gazimon was trying to say but Renamon interrupted him.
“No! You have no idea how I feel! You can’t even begin to imagine how I feel! Please, just get out!”
“Stop it, Renamon! We’re not leaving you like this!” Hasan yelled at her, and she did so, turning her face away with a pout.
“Here we go. A nice meal for our cute fox.” Fairymon then arrived with a breakfast plate and a smiling face, and put it next to Renamon, who didn’t seem to be interested in eating. “Aren’t you gonna eat? I made it especially for you, and you haven’t eaten anything all day.”
“I don’t feel like it…” Renamon replied.
“Aw, c’mon, just a few bites. It’ll make you a whole lot better.” Fairymon insisted and neared a spoon to Renamon’s mouth, but she refused and shoved the plate off of the bed, dropping the food all over the floor and yelling harshly at Fairymon.
“I said I don’t want it! Nothing can make me feel better! Don’t you get it yet!? He left me… Leomon deserted me! Do you know how it feels to be abandoned by the one you love, without even saying goodbye to you!? You’ll never understand! No one can! So just save your sympathy and stay the hell out of this!!!”
“That’s enough!” Angewomon shouted and silenced Renamon with a hard slap on the face, much to the others’ surprise. Renamon’s head tilted to the side by the hard slap, her yellow cheek turning to a shade of red, as she slowly turned it to face the angry face of Angewomon.
“Don’t think that you’re the only one who’s in pain! What about Chris? Have you thought about how he feels about it? All of us are worried and confused by what happened. Are you gonna mourn about it forever? Stop acting like a baby and try to figure out why Leomon and Black left us without a good explanation…”
“B… Black?” Renamon blinked in confusion.
“Black’s gone as well, only leaving a note behind. So you’re not the only one who didn’t get to hear goodbye from her loved one,” Hasan explained to her. Renamon suddenly felt so ashamed and realized how rude and inconsiderate she was to her only close friends. She was so despaired she only thought about her own trauma and didn’t consider the others’ feelings about this.
“Oh, Angie… I’m sorry… I didn’t… Oh, I’m so sorry… everyone…” Renamon began to sob a bit and found comfort between Angewomon’s arms as she hugged her.
“It’s okay, dear. Let it all out.” Angewomon smiled and hugged her back, caressing the sad vixen’s head gently. Renamon then felt a gentle hand patting her on her shoulder, as she turned around and saw that it was her partner’s.
“I know it’s been hard for you, but I also know that you’re much stronger than this.” Renamon smiled back by her partner’s words and wiped away her tears.
“Yes, you’re right. I’m sorry, Fairymon. I was so mean to you…” she apologized.
“No harm done, Renamon. I for one truly understand how you feel.”
“Thank you. But… it sure was a hard slap, Angie…” Renamon winced as she rubbed her reddened cheek.
Angewomon giggled, “Oh, sorry. But you can always pay it back to Leomon when we find him, hm?” she winked at the vixen.
“You mean…” Renamon blinked and Angewomon confirmed with a nod.
“Hang on! You’re not gonna look for them, are ya?” Gazimon questioned.
“What’d you expect? Sit here and grieve over them like some old widows? If they thought they could get away with leaving us like this without telling us, they’d be very mistaken,” Angewomon confidently said.
“Right! They’d be dead wrong if they think they could get away with it this easily!” Renamon enthusiastically proclaimed, regaining her spirit back thanks to Angewomon’s aid.
“Yeah! Um, but... how?” Gomamon coked his head in wonder.
“Goma’s right. I don’t mean to sound like a downer, but we haven’t a clue of why they left or where they’re heading,” Hasan pointed out.
“Um, well, we’ll figure something out, I’m sure.” Renamon hoped.
“I’ll leave the brainstorming for you. I’m going home.” Chris waved to his friends goodbye and without more ado, took his leave.
“Eh? Uh, excuse me for a minute guys, we’ll be right back,” Hasan excused himself and went after his friend, catching up with him just as he exited through the front door. “Hey, wait up! Where are you going, Chris?”
“Didn’t you hear me? I’m going home.”
“Hold on! What do you mean you’re going home? Don’t you want to find Leomon?”
“At a matter of fact, no,” Chris bluntly replied and surprised his friend.
“Don’t say that. Listen, I know you’re very upset about what happened last night, but there gotta be a really good reason that made him do all of that. Would you be satisfied not knowing it?” Chris paused for a few moments and considered what Hasan had said, but he was too much angry that he wasn’t thinking straight.
“Look, I’m fed up with all of this. I really appreciate your concern, but right now there’s nothing we can do about it. The only thing I’d really want to do right now would be giving ‘my partner’ a piece of my mind, and since that’s not possible at the moment, I just wanna be at my house. See you later,” Chris said and headed off to the town’s gate to open a portal to his real world, as Hasan stood in his place for a minute in confusion, not sure of what to do.
“He-Hey! Come on, Chris! You can’t just go like that! We need to… huh?” Hasan then went after and called out for him to come back, but then stopped when he noticed that Chris was standing there doing nothing except looking at an empty space at the gate. “Something’s wrong?”
“I can’t open it.” Hasan blinked when Chris said that.
“Open what?”
“The portal, I can’t open the portal to the real world…” Chris stated in puzzlement.
“What the? Are you sure?”
“Yeah. Nothing happens. Can you try?” Chris asked his friend and Hasan acknowledged with a nod. He stepped forward and tried to open a portal to the real world like they always easily did. Unfortunately, he too didn’t succeed and nothing came out before them.
“Oh-kay… this is weird,” Hasan expressed worriedly. “That never happened before. Not since we defeated Reapermon… Hey… you don’t think that…?”
“He’s back? Let’s hope not. But anything’s possible. So much for going back home…” Chris said in disappointment.
“Wait, maybe this has something to do with Leomon and Black departures. They must’ve known something was going wrong here and went to fix it by themselves. It could be Reapermon, or something else entirely. Either way, the Digital World is refusing to let us go back to the Real World. So we have no choice but to stay here and solve this mystery.”
“Hmm, that’s possible. But, we don’t know how long it’d take us to do that. We can’t be away from our homes without telling our families.”
“Oh, yeah… that could be a problem.” Hasan crossed his arms to think and his eyes glimpsed his watch, noticing that it had stopped from functioning. “Hm? Chris, is your watch working?”
“My watch?” Chris checked his left wrist to examine his watch and was stunned to find out that it wasn’t working either. “Nope, it’s dead. How did you know?”
“Because mine’s stopped too. And this means only one thing: Time has gone awry in the real world,” Hasan revealed without doubt.
“Like what happened with Reapermon…”
“Exactly! So for every second there, it would count as days here. If that’s not a sign for us to go and find out what the hell is going on around here, then I don’t know what is.”
“I guess you’re right. Looks like we’ll be dragged into this whether we like it or not. But since we don’t have a choice, we better make the most out of it.”
“That’s the spirit! It’s gonna be like in the old days, and you gotta admit, it was one hell of a adventure. Who knows what this one has in store for us?”
“Agreed. Okay, let’s go tell everyone,” Chris stated, already pumped up for the journey ahead, and went back with Hasan to Renamon’s place where their Digimon friends where waiting for them.
###############################
The day went by fast, with our
friends scattered around the
“Did you find anything?” Renamon asked her partner with high hopes.
“Nothing…” Hasan sadly shook his head. “No one here knows anything about the outside world. I guess they aren’t interested in anything beside living peacefully.”
“Oh yeah, most Digimon towns and villages around these parts are like this. They all live so peacefully with each others,” Fairymon explained as she was preparing dinner with Angie and Chris.
“That’s true, I remember Dobermon’s village. It was very calm and peaceful,” Chris said.
“As does Lillymon’s town,” Angewomon added. “If so, where could they have gone to? There were no signs of anything disturbing as far as I can tell.”
“Hmm, didn’t Leomon leave any trace behind him, Renamon?” Hasan switched to his fox Digimon and asked.
“No… He just took some things from the storage, like canned foods and some of my herbal potions. Hee hee, I guess he approves my remedial skills at least,” Renamon giggled ironically.
“Potions, huh? So it’s no ordinary trip if he’d prepare himself this much. What about Black?”
“I don’t think he was as perceptive as Leomon, since he barely took anything with him. Not that I expected anything more from him,” Angewomon forwardly pointed out.
“Calm down, Angie. Wait until you lay your hands on him before getting all flustered,” Fairymon advised her close friend. “Speaking of which, where are Gazimon and Gomamon? I hope they didn’t get into any sort of trouble.”
“Ah, they’ll show up soon enough.” And sure enough, just as Hasan uttered that, the two Rookie Digimon arrived, carrying fruitful news with them. “See? What did I tell ya? Found anything guys?”
“Did we ever!” Gazimon gloated with a beam.
“We hit the bonanza, baby! But what happened to dinner?” Gomamon followed and asked for food like he always did.
“You can eat whatever you want, but tell us first! What did you find out!?” Renamon snapped at them eagerly.
“OK, OK! Well, me and Gazi were at the pub that we always hang out at, see? I got a bit hungry and wanted to have a little snack. They have the yummiest meatloaf and tuna sandwiches ever! You gotta try ‘em!”
“GOMAMON!!!” The others glared at Gomamon and made him stop his babbling.
“Uhh, sorry… Anyhoo, just then, we overheard a Digimon talking about something The New City. We investigated some more and it turned out that this Gekomon works at the port town to the south, and he couldn’t stop yapping about how many Digimon are overflowing the ships there so they could go to this so-called New City that has been recently discovered at the middle continent. We then asked him if he saw anyone that resembles Leomon or Black, but he said that he didn’t have a clue, since so many Digimon are coming to the port from all part of this land every day just to sail to the middle continent. But there’s no doubt that it’s the place they’re going to! And since we’re such great pursuers, look what he gave us! Show ‘em, Gazimon!” Gomamon announced and gestured to Gazimon with his paw.
“Ta-dah! A special
catalogue for one of their ferries to middle continent, with information about
the
“Hey, that’s pretty impressive! Way to go, you two!” Hasan complimented the two Rookies.
“Let me see that!” Renamon snatched the booklet from Gazimon’s paws and took a quick look through its contents. “But, how do we know that this is their destination as well? We can’t just rely on a simple possibility. The middle continent is so far away from here,” the vixen then doubtfully stated.
“We don’t have any other options now, do we? This has got to be it!” Gomamon insisted.
“Wait. Renamon’s right. We must know for sure before doing anything rash. What clues do we have so far?” Angewomon inquired.
“Uhh… nothing at all…” Chris replied.
“Say, didn’t Black leave any hints in his letter? Like where he’s going?” Hasan then asked.
“Not really. He just mentioned that he’s going to faraway lands,” Angewomon answered straightly.
“Maybe he meant the middle continent by that?” Gazimon presumed.
“Hey, you’re right, Gazimon! That must be it! You can’t go farther away than that, there has to be something happening there that made those two decide to leave for it,” Fairymon said in confidence.
“That’s what I was trying to say too!” Gomamon followed agreeably.
“You know, I think they’re most probably right. Look at it this way; it’s the best choice we have. No harm in checking it out,” Hasan stated.
“I second that!” Renamon agreed with her partner.
“What about you Chris?” Angewomon then turned to Chris and asked for his opinion.
“Hey, whatever you guys say. What do we got to lose anyway?” Chris replied with a shrug.
“So it’s settled then. Next thing in the morning, we’re heading to the port town and get on the first ferry that would sail to the middle continent,” Angewomon announced.
“So soon? Um, but we still haven’t decided on who’s gonna go…” Hasan mentioned.
“For one thing, you and I are in for sure!” Renamon chirped as she held her partner’s arm in hers.
“Don’t forget about me!” Gomamon excitedly said as he bounced on top of the table.
“I’m game as well, obviously,” Chris proclaimed.
“Hey! I wanna come along too!” Gazimon raised his paw. “I always wanted to go on a journey like the ones you had before, so you better count me in on this one!”
“It might be dangerous, Gazimon. We don’t even know what we are going to face there.” Chris warned his gray-furred friend.
“I know, and I’m willing to take the risk, to help you guys for once.”
“Oh, Gazimon! You’re so sweet and courageous!” Fairymon tightly hugged Gazimon in joy, him muffling between her arms in embarrassment.
“That’s very nice of you, Gazimon,” smiled Angewomon. “That leaves me and Fairymon…”
“And on of us has to stay here, just in case something happened to the town you’re away. You can leave that to me, again. You must go too, Angewomon. They need you,” Fairymon said with a smile.
“Thank you, Fairymon…”
“You got that right. You should be our leader. No one can be better for that than you, Angie,” Chris suggested.
“Yes, you should. You’re the wisest and strongest between us. We could never do without you before, and we can never do now,” Renamon added.
“Indeed. Plus, you’re the only Ultimate here, you can kick anyone’s ass. So we won’t have to worry about being attacked by any bad Digimon or anything,” Hasan said and received a rough nudge on the waist by Renamon.
“Hey! That’s rude! I’m here too!”
“Ow! I know, I know! You don’t need to demonstrate on me…” winced Hasan.
“Thank you all. I’m not sure if I’m really up for the task, but I’m flattered by the trust you’re giving me. I’ll do my best not to disappoint you,” Angewomon gratefully said. She was really touched and accepted the role of the leader without a doubt.
“Ah, you’ll do more than fine! Okay then, now that we cleared everything up, let’s start dinner!” Gomamon eagerly said and reminded them about the dinner they were preparing. So, they enjoyed a fine dinner together after a while, having the highest of hopes for tomorrow’s journey.
###############################
Later that night, Renamon just couldn’t sleep in her room. A lot was in her mind, mostly Leomon. She couldn’t stop thinking about him, where he could be and why had he left. She soon got frustratingly tired of all this thinking and decided to get out of her room. She then happened to see her partner, Hasan, in the living room, sitting quietly on the couch, with Gomamon fast asleep on his lap. She smiled at this and went over to sit by his side.
“Hey,” she merely uttered as she reached the sofa.
“Oh, hey there. What? Can’t sleep either?” Hasan asked and she responded with a headshake as she sat down next to him. “Me neither. I can’t stop thinking about tomorrow and if things are going to be really okay. Unlike Gomamon here,” he said as he petted Gomamon’s head that was resting on his lap.
“Oh? Are you worried?” Renamon asked and reached out her paw to pet Gomamon’s head as well, causing him to purr peacefully in his sleep.
“Kinda. I mean, I’m a little excited, but I can’t shake off the feeling that it’s not going to be that easy. We just don’t have any idea of what is waiting for us there.”
“That’s may be true, but we’re going to do it together. You don’t have to worry, it’s not like you,” Renamon comforted him with a smile.
“Heh, yeah I know. You’re right.” He smiled back.
“Where’s Chris?” she then asked.
“Oh, he’s probably taking a stroll outside. I think it’s better to leave him be for while. He’s taking it hard.”
“Yes…”
“What about you?”
“Hm? What about me?”
“Why can’t you sleep?”
“Oh…” Renamon’s eyes narrowed and she twisted her head to the side. “I can’t stop thinking about him…”
“You already miss him, huh?” he asked her and she nodded.
“I guess I’ve grown too much attached to him. He makes me feel so secured and… content, like no one else can.” Hasan listened to his dear partner confess, feeling quite sympathetic for her. “But… why did he leave? Is it because of me? Did I do something wrong?” Renamon began to question herself.
“Of course not. I’m sure you’ve got nothing to do with it,” Hasan told her while he placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. “Everybody can see how much Leomon has changed to the better ever since he moved in with you. Nobody had ever seen him this happy before he moved in with you. You complete him, Renamon, you should know that by now. Why did he have to disappear all of the sudden like that we’re not sure, but that’s what we’re going to find out, right?” Hasan’s words washed away Renamon’s doubts and made her feel much better.
“You’re absolutely right. Thank you, Hasan, you always know how to make me feel good.” Renamon smiled in joy and leaned on her partner chest, hugging him closely. “I missed being with you like this… I’m sorry if I’ve been neglecting you lately… I really miss you…” she then whispered in a sad tone.
“Don’t be silly. I understand,” Hasan replied softly as he put one arm around her and she nodded back.
“Thank you. Could we stay like this for a while longer, please?”
“Sure.” Renamon pressed herself into him more as he said that and slowly drifted to sleep between her partner’s arms. Hasan looked over her and Gomamon for a while, knowing now for sure that with those two with him, there was absolutely nothing to fear about the future. As long as they were together, always.

Meanwhile, at the town square, Chris was taking a stroll by himself, his mind lost in a lot of thoughts, mainly about his Digimon partner, Leomon. He never thought Leomon would do such a thing to him, and he never thought he could get this angry with him. Chris was very furious. He didn’t actually care about that rescue journey as much as he wanted to just find a way to get back home, and that was the only that made him accept going with his friends to search for Leomon and BlackWarGreymon.
He soon found himself near the fountain at the big square and sat at a bench there. The area still had some Digimon wandering around even at this late hour, but that didn’t seem to concern him much. He just sat down and took a rest, trying to make himself feel at ease, but failing miserably. He let out a frustrated sigh, when he glimpsed a familiar Digimon coming his way.
“Hey Chris, what’cha doing here all alone?” Gazimon asked him after a quick greet.
“Oh, hi Gazimon. I’m just hanging around,” Chris replied casually.
“This late at night?”
“Yeah. And what brings you?”
“Uhh… Well, I was at the pub just a minute ago. I was saying goodbye to my buddies there. I won’t be seeing them for a long while.” Gazimon said in excitement and Chris only responded with a nod. Gazimon quickly noticed that his friend wasn’t really okay and sat next to him on the bench. “Are you worried about the trip?”
“Huh? Oh, no. Not really.”
“How come? You want to find Leomon, don’t ya?”
“Actually, I don’t.” Chris said in a stern tone and stunned Gazimon.
“Eh? B-But… how can you say that? Isn’t he your partner?”
“That what I used to believe. But looks like he stopped caring.”
“Umm, I’m sure he has a very good reason. Don’t be so harsh on him Chris, not just yet. I know that you’re very upset, but feeling that way about him would make it even worse. Leomon would be extremely hurt if he heard you say that about him. I sure would if my partner did, not that I have any. But I wish I could! A nice and kind partner just like you, Chris!” Gazimon smiled up at Chris, trying to cheer him up. It didn’t fully work, Chris was just too mad, but it did actually make him feel better, even if for a bit.
“Thanks, Gazimon,” Chris simply replied and petted on Gazimon’s head.
“Hey, tell you what? How about you spend the night at our place? I’m sure Fairymon would be thrilled!” Gazimon then suggested and Chris didn’t take too long to agree.
“I’d love to.”
“Great! Let’s go then, we have a big day tomorrow!” Gazimon happily said and tugged on Chris by the hand.

The next day, after the group had made the necessary
preparations for their seemingly long journey, they bid their Digimon friends at the
“Here we are!
“Oh my, it’s even more lively than I remember,” Renamon said in astonishment. The place was bursting with many activities, with many Digimon roaming around and lots of outgoing and ingoing cargos from ships that had been sailing off and on the pier. It was almost overwhelming for our friends, especially for the ones who hadn’t been here before.
“Wow, I didn’t have any idea it would be like this. It’s kinda like the ones in the real world,” Hasan stated out intriguingly.
“Yeah. Well, let’s just find the pier and see if we can catch a ferry to the middle continent,” Chris then suggested.
“Yes. We better move fast. With so many Digimon around, we'll be lucky if we find any seats available for today,” Angewomon said and the rest agreed with her, moving out to find the harbor office. Sure enough, they found one near the docks and luckily for them it wasn’t as busy as they thought. Hasan, Gomamon and Chris waited outside while the rest went inside and let Angewomon be in charge as she rang the bell and a Gekomon rose from the counter with a beam.
“Why hello! Can I help you?”
“Oh, I hope you can. We’re looking for a ship that can take us to the middle continent?” Angewomon asked and returned the smile.
“Ahhh! You
must be heading for the
“Yes. Can you help us? We need a place for six.”
“Certainly! I got just the thing for you! A cruise ferry is sailing off to the middle continent right at dusk today.”
“Excellent!”
“It’s gonna cost you, though. It’s 5000 Bits per ticket.” The Gekomon then pointed out.
“Holy crap! You must be kidding us! That’s a damn lot of money!” Gazimon gasped.
“Hey! This is a high-class cruise, bucko! And it’s the only ship going for the middle continent for weeks. So, take it or leave it.”
“But, we don’t think we have that…” Renamon was trying to say before Angewomon cut in.
“We’ll take it.” The others were quite surprised by Angewomon decision as they all looked at her awkwardly.
“Are you sure Angie? I mean, after summing it up, excluding me of course, the total will be 30000 Bits! Where are we gonna come up with that kind of money?” Fairymon questioned her doubtfully. Angewomon simply reached out for a bag that she was carrying and pulled out a small sack.
“I’m sure this’ll be enough.” She brought out about 30 Golden Bits from the sack and handed them to the Gekomon, much to the others surprise.
“Ah, it’ll do fine indeed! Here are the tickets! It was a pleasure doing business with you, ma’am! Have a nice trip!” The Gekomon smiled widely as he handed her the tickets and swooped up the golden coins, greedily counting them.
“An-Angewomon? How…? Where did you get all that money from?” Renamon mumbled to her.
“Yeah, I didn’t know you had that much on you! What gives?!” Fairymon demanded.
Angewomon just smiled at them, “Well… it’s not actually mine.” They blinked at her and she giggled a little. “It belongs to Black. I know where he keeps all of that money of his, and he doesn’t actually make much use it of it anyway. So I thought I’d just take some. If we’re going to a place that's far away and none of us has ever seen before, we’ll need as much money as we can. Think of it as the first part of payback on Black. The rest of it will come when we find him.” Angewomon explained with a devious smile, and her friends couldn’t help sweatdropping.
“Damn, and I thought angels were supposed to be good...” Gazimon muttered nervously, before they exited the office and met up with the rest of the group that was waiting outside.
“How did it go?” Hasan asked.
“More than good. We got us ride to the middle continent in a big ferry,” Angewomon answered directly.
“Awesome! Let’s go see it!” Gomamon excitedly said and they went off to the pier. They asked around the Digimon there for their ship and they quickly directed them to the one they were looking for, right at the far end of the docks. It was very large Titanic-like ship that could host a huge number of Digimon on top of it.
“Man, he wasn’t kidding when he said it was high-class… it’s huge!” Gazimon gawked at the ship.
“Let’s get on it then before it gets crowded,” Chris then said.
“Well, I guess it’s time for me to head back to town. Oh, I’m gonna miss you all!” Fairymon gave each one of them a nice hug. “I hope that you’ll find him soon, Renamon,” she whispered to the fox as she hugged her.
“Me too,” Renamon smiled as she hugged her back.
“And you take good care of the town for us, Fairymon. We’ll be back as soon as we can.” Angewomon hugged her dear friend tightly.
“You can count on me. Give Blacky a slap on the face for me, will you?” Fairymon smirked.
“Oh, I sure will.”
“As for you!” Fairymon then picked up Gazimon and snuggled him up nicely. “Be brave, sweety! I’ll be waiting for you to tell me all about the things you’ll do! Oh, I’m so proud of you!” she chirped merrily and gave him a nice kiss on the mouth.
“Ack! C-Cut it out, Fairymon! Not in front of everyone!” Gazimon complained in embarrassment as he was snuggled by his sweetheart, blushing red and getting suppressed chuckles from his friends.
“Anyway, we better get on board. Are you all ready? There’s no
turning back once we board the ship,” Angewomon
questioned her friends and nobody objected. “Okay then. Let’s go.” With an
encouraging smile, she led the way to the ferry after bidding Fairymon farewell and started their journey to the massive
Middle Continent of the Digital World, their main goal

To be continued…
Alrighty, that’s it for chapter 3. Actually, the first three chapters were supposed to be the long first chapter. But I guess making it a long chapter would make it too weary to read, eh? So, no more chapters with more than 20 pages at max from now on, hopefully. This was the starting point for the series, and from here on, things would REALLY start to get interesting, mainly with the intro of many new characters. So I hope you’ll look forward to it. ^_^
Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed! Any comments? Send ‘em to my e-mail. G’night, Digi-Believers! ^_^
