"I think we're lost." Shadow said as he examined a tree.
"We aren't lost, I know exactly where I'm going. And what would make you think we were lost?"
"The fact that I kicked a mark into this tree when we first passed it." Shadow pointed at a small part of the tree that was missing it's bark.
"Well what do you suggest we do? Ask for directions? There's no one to ask!"
Almost as if on cue a small Orange ball thingy came bounding up the hill.
"We can ask that beach ball." Shadow stuck his hand in the air, "YO! LITTLE ORANGE THING!"
The small creature turned his attention towards him and stared at him, almost as if he wasn't sure what he was seeing, then a broad smile appeared on his face and he bolted over and began circling the two, "HUMANS ARE HERE! HUMANS ARE HERE! HUMANS ARE HERE! HUMANS ARE HERE!"
"Hey... waita min... if you could just!" Shadow tried in vain as the creature continued running around him happily, "WOULD YOU LISTEN!" Shadow's arm shot out quickly and grabbed the small creature by a horn sticking out of it's head, "Can we just get directions?"
"Where to?" the small creature asked as it shook around in his hand, not trying to escape but seeming more excited than scared.
"We're trying to get to our home. It's called Earth." Slashmon answered.
"Urth? Where's that? I've never heard of that island."
"It's not an island. It's..." Shadow thought for a second, How do I explain the complex descriptions of interplanetary travel to something that seems as intelligent as a ham sandwich? "Earth is a place that is very far away, and it's so far that we don't know how to get back."
"You don't have to talk to me like I'm stupid, I'm not a ham sandwich ya know." The creature jumped from his grip and then pointed with the horn on his head, "I don't know much about this Urth place but you can ask Babamon and Jijimon. They seem to know alot about alot of stuff that alot of people don't know alot about and,"
"Okay," Shadow interupted, "I get it, they're smart. Do they live over that way?" Shadow pointed in the direction of the horn.
"Yep, but it's a bit of a walk." He hopped off happily over the hill and dissapeared from site.
"Something tells me I'm not gonna like it here."
"Well, then we'll just have to hurry out of here." Slashmon stared up at the sky, the sun was beggining to set, giving the sky a bright orange glow as if it were on fire, "Plus it's getting late, we should hurry."
"We aren't lost, I know exactly where I'm going. And what would make you think we were lost?"
