Kshin noticed how Flynt's eyes were almost sparkling at the idea of meeting Grace that and as an in training digimon he seemed more energetic which was something Kshin understood as he was much the same when he digivolved. Maybe it had something to do with the fresh rush of power but no digimon Kshin had seen complained about being stronger even if they weren't driven by power.
It seemed Flynt was not wanting to stick around any longer and began zipping out of the village and Kshin ran after him soon catching up to the energetic DemiMeramon. What Flynt meant by he may be attacked Kshin didn't know but ran alongside Flynt as the two entered the forest.
Meanwhile Grace was sitting up yawning since the fire had died out and looked around seeing that Kshin was no where in sight. Not alarmed at first she began taking some of the firewood they gathered much earlier and began preparing a new fire only to see what looked like Kshin enter the camp with a DemiMeramon. Confused Grace looked from Kshin to Flynt before she asked "Kshin, where did you go and who is that?" Her tone wasn't angry but it did reflect the confused look on her face.
"Oh I just went on a walk because I couldn't sleep then I exited the forest and found Flynt here outside of the Village of Beginnings and he was only a baby at the time. He digivolved shortly after I met him and when I told him about you he got excited and zipped toward the forest with me soon catching up. Then we arrived here." Kshin explained giving her the abridged version of events but it was enough for her to get the gist of things.

It seemed rather simple actually how quickly they found the camp site but then again with Kshin guiding them there would no way that he would get lost! Soon he arrived at the camp site, eyes sparkling once more as they locked onto grace as she was setting up the camp fire one more as they arrived. She seemed so confused as too why Kshin brought back another Digimon.
"Oh, I tried to out pace Kshin but he was too fast for me. I am not as strong so I figured since he was biggger he would be able to keep up with me. Oh so you are the partner he been traveling with, oh I am so excited to met you and yes I know I have high amount of energy but you..." There he goes once again suddenly just zoning out again like clock work. It was unsure why he did that but he zoned out right as Kshin was talking.
His eyes were blank and focused upon the remains of the fire or at least they were looking towards it at the time he zoned out. It was unsure what was happening to him each time he would zone out. This time it took longer for him to zone back in as he only did so once Kshin stopped talking. Slowly moving over to the fire he would light it with his fiery hands.
"Oh, I got this for you two but ummmm what was I talking about before I seemed to have forgotten what I Was talk about but this fire is so pretty, I could simply sit on it and be all warm and toasty." Flynt would mention as his eyes looked down to the flames, entranced by jhow the flames danced. Soon enough he was mimicking how the flames danced on the wood. it almost was like second nature to him.
"I will digivolve into a Digimon of fire.....Flames across my body with arms as big as Kshin's. I can and will go beyondf my limits...I can do it."

Flynt was indeed eager to meet Grace as was obvious with the way he was talking. Then all of a sudden Flynt went silent and zoned out making both Kshin and Grace look at him in concern before Grace asked "Uh, Kshin, is he all right? Is this normal?"
Kshin didn't honestly know answering with only a clueless shrug before he said "I think he's alright because I saw him do this earlier and he snapped back to normal a short time later." That seemed to be good enough for Grace as the two went back to watching Flynt and, sure enough, after some time he zoned back in and went over to the wood lighting it with his hands which meant Grace wouldn't need to do so through breathing dark flames onto the wood.
As for Flynt he seemed to have forgotten what he was talking about before becoming entranced by the flames as the sparks danced. "Yeah I'm sure flames would feel good if I was made of them like you." Grace said with a smile her peppy nature starting to spark forth. "Nice to meet you, Flynt, my name is Grace and I have a fire ability too."
When Flynt mentioned digivolution, Kshin said "Maybe you will digivolve into something like that, Flynt, one never knows for sure with digivolution."

This was a trance like never before as the others talked to him he only continued to dance with the flames of the fire. His body matched pace to pace with the flickering flames as his eyes refocused for a moment, looking around as he danced around the flames. slowly looking towards Grace as he nods with the flow of the flames.
"Please is all mine, yes very much is all mine! Two made of fire, one is not....I wonder if I could become bigger fire if I just..." He zoned out again being rather curious about the fire it seemed something was driving him closer to the flames. It seemed like he would move and sit upon the top of the fire seemingly not phrased by it at all. These flames lite something inside of him, something inside his very core. There was this burning feeling, one he couldn't describe.
"I feel at home here, this feeling is something that I think I have felt before." He mentioned, still remaining on top of the flickering flames, listening to how his new friends spoke, nodding to each word. Still entranced by the fire as he sat their not dancing as if he was apart of the flames.
"This is how one should be, flickering with flames, flickering with life. Fleeting as flames once alive now smoldering. With passion they ignite once more, growing bold and bright, lighting the way to a burning tomorrow.~" He chanted from his seat on top of the flames as he looked down to each of his new friends.
"Never forget memories, one they been burned they will be there forever...Read to lite an inferno!"

After responding to Grace, Flynt seemed to zone out once again as he went closer to the fire until the cute little guy was laying within the flames itself not bothered in the slightest which made perfect sense given his fiery nature. He also mentioned feeling at home there. Flynt would probably enjoy areas with warmer temperatures given how comfortable he was in those dancing flames.
"This is how one should be, flickering with flames, flickering with life. Fleeting as flames once alive now smoldering. With passion they ignite once more, growing bold and bright, lighting the way to a burning tomorrow.~" Kshin and Grace took in those words chanted by Flynt. Then when Flynt finished with "Never forget memories, one they been burned they will be there forever...Read to lite an inferno!" Grace smiled before she said "Wow, Flynt, that chant was so pretty. Where did you learn that?"
That indeed was a good question Kshin had to admit. There was something quite different about Flynt seeing he was so young and had a pretty impressive vocabulary even when he was Mokumon. Was this something to do with a past life? Maybe since sometimes digimon remembered a small part of their former lives and even sometimes remembered all of it.

Those words came like the wind, in a moment it was gone. It was uncertain where they came from but deep down Flynt knew where they came from, a primal part of his core. Maybe it was a past life that he lived or memroies of a forgotten past. Edging him forwards towards the horizon, perhaps it was the fact who he was wanted to live again and be someone different, someone free? There was no doubt now what it was!
There would be this big smile on his face as he looked at his new found friends, this moment on top of the flames would surely be a memory to cherish for his entire life. It didn't matter rather or not he was strong or weak at this moment he knew what he wanted to do. His eyes turned to the sky as he stared at the stars, wondering what was above the clouds.
"It was nothing, it came and it left. I don't know but I feel so emotional right now. I can feel the sky calling to me and I can feel it trying to tell me to return but I am not that one Digimon I was before." He would mention in a low voice, a hand reaching up to the sky as far as he could reach from the fire. Suddenly he would stretch out towards the sky! Taking one leap from the flames, soaring higher and higher! However what goes up must eventually come down.
As his flaming body would descent back to earth he stretched out once more to the sky, trying to reach it. In a mere moments another power surge would happen! Just like before with the flaming data that swirled around him there it was happening once more. With surprise he was pushing himself up towards the sky. When the burst of data ended there Flynt was. He digivolved once more reaching an even higher level, instead of becoming a being of fire he was a dragon like Digimon made from rock and ore.
His small wings pushing him up towards the sky in an attempt to reach it. The act of pushing up his new body was such a burden to him. Quickly Kshin and Grace could see him struggling to even push himself up before he gave out a huff and a puff of exhaustion. Falling back down to the ground with a loud clunk, most likely due to his new heavier body. The impact was enough to force him to de-digivolve back to DemiMeramon.
"I just wanted to reach it, it's calling to me....Something is calling to me and I don't know but I can hear it...It's calling out for me to reach it." He mentioned to the two of them as he shook himself off of the dirty. "Maybe, we can go on an adventure to find out what is calling me...Once I get to know you both better?"

Flynt said he felt the sky was calling out to him. What that meant neither Kshin or Grace even knew but it seemed to be a primal thing from what either of them could tell. They were amazed how one as young as Flynt had such a strong connection to his primal side all while not being a feral digimon. Some digimon had to do a lot of training for that kind of control so the two of them were in awe of the DemiMeramon in the flames. Watching him reach to the sky with his small arms it was as if he was trying to get to the thing calling to him.
Then suddenly something happened that amazed both Kshin and Grace as Flynt shot up toward the sky before starting to come back down. However as he was decending he surged with power as the sight of flaming data surrounded him. "No way! He's digivolving again!" Kshin said gaping in surprise and awe his expression mirroring Grace's as they watched Flynt become a winged dragon made of rock. Though trying to fly as a rookie, Flynt came down hard reverting back to DemiMeramon.
Now snapping out of shock Kshin and Grace looked at Flynt, who seemed to be okay as he was dusting himself off, before he asked if they would go with him on adventure to find out what was calling him. "Sounds like it would be a fun time." Grace said with a smile.
"I agree with Grace. We could spend some time getting to know each other and maybe one day you'll be able to fly when you get the hang of your rookie form." Kshin said smiling. Flynt was amazing as he had digivolved twice in a short span of time while it took Kshin himself months to reach rookie but, then again, digimon reached higher stages at different rates.

It must have been a fluke, it really must have been. There was no way he should have digivolved right? He was still young and the emotions of meeting new friends and feeling the sky calling to him mustn't have been the only thing driving him. This raw power was seen for an instant before leaving him, reverting to that pervious form of his. He came out of it without a scratch other wise, perhaps that dragon form could be useful if only he knew how to use it properly or tap into it like a regular form. It was slow but it seemed to have power is every flap of his wings.
Those fiery hands rose up to rub at his eyes for a moment as he looked to both Kshin and Grace. That big smile still on his face as he seemed impressed that they seemed impressed. He didn't know why but this made him feel at home with these two lovely Digimon.
"Well, what are you two doing out here anyways? Don't you both got homes to go to or are you trying to learn and grow like me?" He asked the two of them as he looked back up to the sky, unsure what was calling to him but the feeling was still there. Something wanted him and he wanted it.
"So, what do you say? We three team up, joining forces and adventure across the Digital world? I swear it would be a lot of fun you know? I mean with everyone together like this and if I can master my next level....Maybe I can be of even more use to both of you!" That silly smile never leaving his fiery frame, He would nod to himself after those words were said, curious about the two of them now more then ever. Perhaps this was the start of a long friendship that could last his entire lifetime?

"Grace and I don't live in one place since we prefer to travel all around the Digital World. We've even go to the Human World to attend school there. So basically learning and growing is part of what we've been up to as I am also working on improving my talent as a traveling stage magician." Kshin answered seeing as he looked up to the starry sky that Flynt was looking at.
"That and in a way I am his assistant but mostly on an unofficial basis." Grace said grinning the wings extending from her back and fluttered energetically before retracting though she barely seemed to notice it. With her it was becoming a reflex when she was starting to be more energetic and peppy. Though for Grace having energy to spare was nothing new to her.
When asked if Kshin and Grace wanted for the three of them to join up with him, Kshin said "Sounds like a good idea to me. Humans have a saying that two heads are better than one but maybe that applies well to three as well."

"Oh travelling stage magicians! What's a traveling stage magician?" Flynt would ask as his head was tilted tot he side in confusion. Unsure what one of those meant! Sure he was smart but there was only so much one could understand being so young and half of what he knew he couldn't explain! It seemed to come to him like the wind, there one moment and gone the next. Perhaps he was a true enigma?
"We should rest up and make sure we are all ready to start this adventure! Maybe I should tag along with you two to school one day, that would be fun. I never been to the human world before in all honesty this could be very much like fun! Wait what is a human...and are they a type of Digimon are they hoomons?" He giggled as he twirled around speaking like a child with new found curiosity! Would he ever get to go to the human world? Only time could tell!
"What do you two think, I think this will be fun. Maybe we need to go to some place else, maybe we can travel for days on end! Where are we anyways in the Digital world?" He would ask not really sure he ever got a proper answer or perhaps he was just too young to understand what was going on? It didn't matter much he wanted to go forwards in this brand new world and explore every place!
"The calling of the sky will wait, it will always be there but I need to get stronger before I can reach it! Maybe on our adventure we will find trouble and grow because of it?" He tilts his head the opposite way now, looking to both Kshin and Grace with those big eyes of his. He seemed ready to take on the world even if he didn't know how big the world really was or how powerful the Digimon in it was.

"A traveling stage magician is a performer who travels around perfoming magic tricks to entertain others. While I have no magic powers I use slight of hand to make it look like I have magic powers. It is hard to learn new tricks but I hope one day to be able to do far more difficult tricks than the small collection of basic ones I know." Kshin said with a smile more than happy to answer Flynt's question.
"Yeah one of Kshin's adopted dads taught Kshin some tricks and he has been trying to learn some new ones while we have been traveling." Grace piped in adding her bit of information so Flynt didn't have to ask the where and how in regards to Kshin's magic tricks.
Now how would Kshin and Grace explain humans to Flynt seeing as the DemiMeramon had never seen one before. Then it comes to Kshin and he said "Grace, let's turn on our holosuits to show him what a human looks like." Grace nodded and followed suit as the two activated their holosuits showing their human disguises. "Humans look like this but they tend to look different in many ways." Kshin explained as he and Grace then deactivated their holosuits. "As for where we are, we are near the Village of Beginnings which is in the Eastern Timberlands."
"Adventure always has some element of risk but I've learned the biggest reward is how fun it is to see places and meet people." Grace said while thinking of many things that the group could do while traveling but there were so many options and she was getting hyped just by thinking about it.

When he explained what stage magic was Flynt quickly nodded his head, taking in everything that Kshin was saying. It was really interesting, perhaps he could learn how to do some basic tricks? That would be pretty neat for him to pick up a few skills from his new friends. Looking around the forest he then looked towards the village being a little sad but also excited to go on a journey.
As Kshin suggest they turn on their holosutis he would have those big sparkling eyes once again. As soon as they both activated their holosuits he would jump back confused as their new forms! Unsure what to make of their appearances! Curiosity set in once more as he pondered if those suits were a different from of digivolving! Perhaps humans were just a stage of digivolving? Yeah that wouild make sense to the young Digimon!
"Oh I see, humans must be a different form requiring help to reach. Maybe I can digivolve into a human level Digimon one day if I find one of those devices!" He exclaimed in a loud cheery voice as he looked at they forms once they turned off the suits. Tensing up real tight.
"DemiMeramon digivolve to Hoomon! Come on, I can digivolve to hoomon level it can't be that hard! DemiMeramon digivolve to Hoomon!" He would squeeze and tense up but nothing was happening. He thought if he tried real hard he could digivolve to this Hoomon level of Digimon! Guess it was really hard or really did need this strange item to help him along the way to reach that level! With one final push he would try a single time, clenching his jaw tightly as he seemed to tense up one last time...Only thing happening was a fireball shoot harmlessly into the sky.
"I suppose I can't just digivolve straight to Hoomon level...maybe I need that device to actually help me attain it!"

Flynt was understandably surprised when Kshin and Grace activated the holosuits. At Flynt's confusion regarding the holosuits Kshin and Grace giggled before Kshin said "Holosuits aren't a form of digivolution, Flynt. Instead they are merely a tool that allows digimon to disguise themselves so they can fit in in the Human World."
Both Kshin and Grace watched as Flynt tried to become a human. Grace, thinking Flynt's current actions were cute, cooed "Aww! Look at that Kshin. He wants to disguise himself as a human too." Yes the little DemiMeramon was indeed being cute there was no denying that in the slightest.
Soon Flynt calmed down after being unsuccessful in turning into a human. "Don't worry to much, Flynt. Maybe you can earn enough money to later buy a holosuit. They aren't a lot of money so it wouldn't take long. I think Grace and I spend more money on food and lodgings while in towns."

With a nod of his head he listened to each of them talking. It seemed he was cute and he didn't understand what was so cute about what doing to cause giggles! He simple was trying to digivolve into a hoomon as he called it. Humans were so different and he was certain they were a form of digivolving! Apparently he they were not as he looked over to Kshin with sad eye before being told he can buy one! There was this excitement on his fast when he was told he could buy one, quickly he got up to move towards one direction away from the Village.
"Come on we got to get ready so we can find a place where I can buy one of this holosuits so I can hide as a hoomon. Then we can go to the human world as a bunch of Digimon hiding as Hoomons! It would be interesting!" He giggled a bit at the words he said seeming happy with the idea that he thought of. "Or maybe we can go find Kshin's dad and he can teach me some street magic also!" That excitement would go away it seemed as he smiled big and bright. This was the happiest the DemiMeramon was.
He began to walk in a direction as he was sighing, not sure where he was even walking towards. Soon the other would most likely stop him from leaving the camp site without guidance. He didn't know he had no idea where he was going, it wasn't even on his mind! This was best time he has had right now!
"We are going on an adventure, we will go to the hoomon world! Hoomon world we go, one, two, three! Adventure time awaits!"

Grace smiled at Flynt before she said "Yes it would be interesting to see all three of us disguised as humans. So, Flynt, do you have any idea what you want your holosuit disguise to look like?" Since the ones who purchased holosuits chose what they would look like there were a myriad of different appearances one could potentially take. Some digmon didn't even disguise themselves as humans though a human disguise was by far the most common.
When Flynt mentioned that maybe Kshin's dad could teach him street magic. "Hmm. Though I don't know where my adoptive parents are right now maybe I can contact them via Tamernet." Then seeing as Flynt was getting restless Kshin and Grace began packing up their stuff before setting about making sure the fire was snuffed out properly before Kshin said "Since you seem eager to go, Flynt, I guess we can pick a direction and see where it takes us." Sure it was random but that was how he and Grace sometimes handled planning travel.
