Uncovering the Past [Jimmy/Duffer/Takara/J.J./Ryoko]

Jimmy was amoung the first to get off of Jet when they landed. That whole flight was the opposite of fun for the Spirit Wielder. Worried that with the speed they were going at, Jimmy would lose his grip and fall off. Plummeting to his death in the unforgiving sands below.

"Oh thank god. Ground sweet ground. Never going to do that again." Jimmy exclaimed as he held himself close to the ground.

"Wow your pathetic." Shin commented as he walked past his companion. The bird digimon then approached Nova and Sparks as he heard them talk.

"So who's this J.J. you speak of then? I don't believe you've ever mentioned him before." Shin asked. Not liking there were parts of this whole thing kept away from him

The lights dimmed, spotlights darting this way and that! Smoke started to roll in from the fog machines as the stage lights came on one set at a time.

A drumroll began as the spotlights focused on the curtain and the announcer's voice started up. Deep strong and smooth and generic as could be; "Laaaadieees and Gentelmooonss, it's time! Give it up for the one, The only, J.J!!!!!!"[/color], and with that the music began and the salamander leaped though the curtain sliding in on his knees. The pyrotechnics went off on the sides of the stage. The crowd of J.Js cheered behind the others, clapping and applauding as any good fans should.

"Quite the entrance huh?", he giggled, flopped on Nova's shoulder now, everything that happened disappearing out of frame now. "I thought it was appropriate for my comeback tour! Sooo you're finally continuing this? Geeze took long enough! Thanks for including me tho~ but.. two questions.."

He'd begin the sentence, two more of him popping out from behind the other two participant's in the thread's shoulders, each proclaiming in unison. "Who are these people?!", before popping back down, seeming to disappear leaving just the one on nova's shoulder.

[ENTER]

A black dune buggy ran through the desert, and it somehow headed towards the Ancient Ruins. The buggy itself had blue front lights and buoyant front tires, as well as sturdy-looking bumper and additional tires above the front one. Strangely enough, the rear of buggy had what it would look like reversed sport car front, implying this car was a transformed form of another type of car. Let's say, this was actually not just a car...

Accompanying the car was a red and yellow motorcycle ridden by a samurai-like humanoid Digimon with saurian head and tail... wearing blue suit and armor which would look like orange. On his head was a blue helmet with crescent-like crest with attribute similar to katana, and its back had orange texture as well. Holstered on his both waists, were katana mixed with gun on one side, and a katana with orange slice-like blade at another. This Digimon riding the motorcycle was Ryusei, now a Gaimumon.

Another one was a silver hovering bike with several large thrusters on its back, with the bike's structure looked bulky and heavy, as if it was geared with heavy armor. The tires were rotated, so that the flat part were facing towards the ground as they hovered on it. Inside the bulky-looking bike was an Renamon in what would appear to be high school uniform. She was Yuuki the Renamon.

Meanwhile, inside the car, there was a red-headed woman driving, and an Angewomon in brown safari outfit on the seat next to the former. The woman was wearing a black coat over red sports bra which reveals her cleavage from her large breasts and six-packed hard abs, and black slacks. She wore black shoes also. Oh, this woman also wore goggles on her head to add the coolness of her appearance. Her eyes were brimming with conviction, and brilliance. And now was time to meet her allies again after a fight with Zodiac XII a year ago.

"Umm, so you said your friends are going to be there? I wonder how they look like." The device on the car's dashboard said, turning towards the woman. The device actually housed an A.I. which was the consciousness of the buggy it self; Steinbert the Tridramon.
"Yeah. I'mma meet 'em soon." the woman, Ryoko said.
"By the way, darling, how long we haven't meet them? Around a year or so?" The Angewomon, Nadeshiko asked.
"Perhaps."

After a while, the buggy stopped at the ruin site, and the vehicles stopped there also. Soon, Ryoko and Nadeshiko opened the doors and went down before closing them back. The busty redhead stretched her arms, and after her companions went down from their vehicles, the group walked into the ruins. There, she met several familiar faces... Nova, Duffer, J.J., and one new face she had never seen before. And so, the group walked up to the other, with the redhead waving at them.

"Hey thar, fellas." Ryoko greeted her friends. "It's been a while, Nove, Duffer, Jim, J.J. How 'r ya guys doin'?"
Meanwhile, Ryusei was looking around, to see Shin, Kotemon, Sparky, and some new faces.
"Heya, Sparky and da gang! Oops, I mean Sparkster. Wuzzap?" Ryusei asked.

"Sorry, Duffer, but I think Kotemon's got you there," Nova chuckled. "Though I think Sparks is the group skeptic." "Gee, I wonder why," Sparks commented sarcastically. "I was actually talking about Takara when I said that part," He whispered to Shin. "Anyway, J.J., meet Duffer, Jimmy, and Takara. The four of us joined forces after I last saw you," Nova told the toon salamander. Then sounds of an approaching vehicle got their attention. Nova had heard back from Ryoko, but not the others.

From the looks of it, Ryoko was already here as she pulled up with a new looking Digimon. But where was Ryusei? "Ryusei! What's with the new look?" Ah. Well that answers that question. "That's Ryusei?" Nova asked. While Ryusei may have changed, Sparks could still ID him easily enough. "Anyway, life's been pretty crazy since we last met," Nova replied. "Uh. 'Pretty crazy'? I think we've passed that point a long time ago," Sparks pointed out.

"Fair. Anyway, seeing as how I haven't heard from Mana or AJ, I guess we'd better go ahead without them. It's already going to be fairly crowded even without them and their Digimon,"  Nova pointed out. When Nova last checked, Ryusei was capable of hitting Mega. That said, he wasn't particularly worried about an attack from the Machinedra Army. They had three Ultimates and two Champions to go with Ryusei after all.

"So uh Nova, pretend I wasn't paying attention before and explain to me what exactly is going on before. I mean I obviously have been paying close attention and keeping logs of every detail of this quest of yours,", he spoke pulling a big book that said Nova's Diary out from behind his back while continuing, tossing it away."But for all these newcomers maybe you should lay it out for them from the beginning ^^" ", he rambled a bit toward the end, a bit sweatdrop visible on his head as he chuckled sheepishly.

He was so easily distracted often times he'd forget what was happening while it was going on!
"Hey! I'm not that far out there!"
Shush you know it's true.
Anyways, He'd then go in for greetings, popping up in front of each person shaking their hand quickly and very animatedly, shouting things like
Nice to meetchya!
How are ya!
Hello to you too!
the greetings overlapping often as he superimposed himself amongst the crowd.
Pega meanwhile would get a very formal kiss to her hand with a "Ma' Lady", before all the J.Js would smack back together in front of Nova, waiting for some kind of explanation as to what they were doing and some exposition to this adventure.

Shin glared at Nova as he introduced everyone to J.J., but him. Or any of the digimon for that matter. "This is one thing I always disliked about you humans. You never fail to overlook us whenever it is convenient for you." He complained with a growl before turning towards J.J., "I'm Shin by the way. It's... Interesting to meet you I guess."

Jimmy gave a nervous chuckle after Shin's outburst. He knew full well what it was like to be on the receiving end of those, and honestly wouldn't be surprise if part of that comment was also meant to be aimed at him.

"So... Uhh... Yeah. As the weird toon thing just said. I've been travelling with you for a while now, and I still feel left in the dark a bit on what exactly we will be doing. I mean I understand that we are going to face against the machinedramon army and all. But knowing how exactly you plan on going about this would be useful. Especially seeing how you failed to tell me that you had extra help besides us on it's way." Jimmy asked. Wanting to know why Nova has been keeping important things like this from him.
