"A-Artemis are you sure it's this way?" Edgar questioned his partner while looking around the area they decided to visit the rather large and at least to Edgar a spooky looking forest, while Edgar was the biggest scardy cat there was, at the same time it was a dark forest in a relatively unknown area. "Yeah General, come on let's hurry if we get to the village of beginnings maybe we can convince someone to join us." Artemis telepathically told his General, he seemed to be very adamant about them getting a Digimon to join them, it didn't seem to matter who it was. Though with that in mind Edgar simply paused for a moment, noticing this Artemis did the same. "I've been meaning to ask about that but, Artemis how do we know if someone will join us or not?" He pondered, after all, Artemis despite having little knowledge on other things held a vast knowledge on the working of being a General. "Oh, that's easy. We just got to inspire someone to come with us, you have to show them your leadership skills General and get them to come with us, though the way we do that might be a bit different depending on who it is, I'm sure we'll know them when we see the General."
Edgar felt that was simple enough to grasp, find the Digimon and win them over, though could this little kid win over the heart of a digital creature? He didn't trust in his skills as a General one bit. "If you say so Artemis." He simply agreed before walking off into the forest following quickly behind his little angel though quickly due to it being the dead of night the forest quickly became darker and darker the further they went into it. Struggling to see the red-coated Digimon Edgar quickly reached out for a moment. "Hey Artemis slow down, I can't see you well." After pointing this out Artemis looked back, nodded before holding his hands near his chest creating a small ball of energy before releasing it into the air where it floated just a bit over him. "There we go, now we can see General," Artemis said before floating off, with a quick nod Edgar started following after him, both making it a fair distance into the forest before Artemis and Edgar heard something cry out. Both looked at one another nodding before rushing off in the direction of the voice.
Both were going pretty fast worried someone might have gotten hurt, though in his rush to get there Edgar tripped landing on his face, slowly he got back up as Artemis faded from view. "Artemis, wait up!" Edgar shouted, though to no avail he seemed too deadset on following the voice, Edgar quickly got up and started running after his partner. "Artemis, ARTEMIS!" Edgar shouted at the top of his lungs, but for whatever reason Artemis didn't seem to even hear him, or notice Edgar was even gone. Slowly the light faded from his view before Edgar was left alone in the darkness again, looking around Edgar suddenly got a lot more worried about where he was, his hands shaking in fear as he slowly walked around the area wondering where he was. "Artemis, ARTEMIS where are you!" He asked, nearly pleading as he walked around the area a bit more.
For what felt like an eternity he slowly wandered around the area, looking for the light Artemis gave off, his hands wouldn't stop shaking, now his whole body considering the chill of the forest, felt even worse when he was alone. Holding his hands in his pockets shivering he pulled his hood lower as he heard a noise, looking around he saw what he thought was some black creature. While this would have normally scared him this black creature showed off a bit of red as he passed by. "Artemis?" Edgar questioned as he started walking towards the black creature, it then ran off going in a certain direction. "Wait come back!" He shouted going after it, from what he saw there was a light above them, did Artemis come back? Why'd he leave in the first place? Edgar chased after it for a while, going different directions between the trees, though it never seemed to go far enough to leave Edgar behind.
For a while Edgar followed the creature before it seemed to slow down, Edgar sped up hoping to catch it but was then suddenly tackled by something else, sending him to the ground, then something else seemed to stand there in front of Edgar for a moment, for a second he seemed to shake his head. "You Idiot, what do you think you're doing?" He asked the young kid shaking his head for a few moments, Edgar though was frozen in fear. "W-Who are you?" Was all he could ask as he stared at the kid for a moment before offering his hand. "Voltmon." Edgar looked at his hand before taking it, he was then easily lifted up by the larger being right up to his feet. Voltmon seemed to stand much taller than Edgar, by at least a good three feet above the kid. "Why'd you tackle me!?" Edgar was mad, and he seemed to of lost who he was chasing. Volt seemed to look back for a bit before shaking his head. "You haven't heard the rumors? There are rumors of a deleted Impmon who wanders this place as a ghost, if he leads you too far you'll end up lost forever, while I don't believe it I'd rather only have one missing child instead of two." Edgar was shocked such a rumor existed, at least from what he knew Digimon were reborn rather quickly after death. "Oh, sorry I'm new he-" Edgar stopped once he saw what Volt looked like, it was his first time seeing a mechanical Digimon, from a distance Edgar might have mistaken him for a human minus his metal body, currently though his eyes were covered by a visor, he quickly pressed a button though and it retracted quickly revealing two red eyes.
"You said something about a missing kid, what was that about?" He pondered, Volt simply shrugged. "Some clod started a game in the forest, everyone but one made it out." He left it at that feeling like that explained enough. "I was asked to help find them, though seems I only found you." He points out, Edgar scratched his head sheepishly. "Sorry, I got lost here with my partner Artemis, have you seen him? Little black Digimon with angel wings and a red cloak?" Edgar asked hopeful, but Volt simply shook his head no. "Oh, darn where could he be?" He asked no one, Volt simply shrugged before walking off. Though he silently looked back for a second. "Later." He said shocking Edgar. "Wait you're just gonna leave me here. Volt seemed to just wave this off pressing the button making the visor pop back up, Edgar seemed reluctant for a moment looking around for a second before rushing off after Volt.
The Digimon looked back at Edgar trailing behind him. Stopping he turned to look at Edgar. "Look, kid, this ain't gonna work, I work alone." He quickly told Edgar before pausing. "Unless you have a joke for me?" Edgar seemed confused as if he didn't believe that was the toll for not being lost alone, for a second Edgar thought of something, he wasn't the best at jokes but he had one his sister told him a while ago, he hoped this was enough. "What did the grape say when it was crushed? Nothing it just let out a little wine!" Edgar said snapping his fingers and pointing at Volt, he stared at Edgar for a second before he started laughing, small at first but he quickly started laughing more till he was holding his stomach. "Ha, why have I never thought of that one? Man humans have some of the best puns. Alright, kid, you got it." He said waving his hand walking off somewhere, Edgar smiled quickly following.
They walked around for a bit before they saw some large thing of light in the middle of the forest, while Volt was confused Edgar seemed to rush after it. "Artemis?" He questioned before hearing something in his mind. "General, GENERAL!" He shouted quickly tackling the kid, Edgar managed to hold his ground as Artemis impacted him hugging the kid. Volt had his hand pointed at Artemis but quickly decided against it. "General, where did you go? I couldn't find you?" Artemis asked holding his head against Edgar's chest. "Sorry Artemis I tripped, I guess you must have flown off too fast to hear me." Artemis looked up then back to where he was. "I guess so, whoever screamed started again, must have drowned out your voice. By the time I looked back I couldn't find you." So that's what it was, Volt walked over to where Artemis was. "Who's that General?"
"His names Voltmon, he helped me get around the forest." Volt seemed to of found something picking it up showing the two of them. "Gotcha," He said holding the Digimon up, it was an Impmon who looked scared. Quickly the Digimon explained he was just trying to prank his friends by going missing but wasn't able to find a way out himself. After taking him and the duo out of the forest Volt looked back at Edgar and Artemis while the Impmon quickly went home, with a sad denial of joining Edgar's army. "So that's what happened, must have been a shocking experience," Edgar had explained what went down by the time they were out. Artemis said the pun to both of them, Edgar stared at Artemis before seeing Volt start laughing at the pun. "Ha, man why can I never think of these." He simply said before looking at the two of them.
"If you're looking for army members then, why not me? Seems like with you I can still live the way I want, so how about it?" Edgar and Artemis looked at each other before nodding. "Y-yeah welcome aboard Volt." Edgar said as he held out the Xros loader, He quickly registered Volt as the device lit up showing Artemis in the middle, then a square popped up showing Volt also. Artemis spun around flying up before silently going down. "YES, WE GOT A MEMBER, our first member, this is great General we're well on our way." Edgar couldn't help but smile, Artemis was so happy about this.
"Looking forward to it commander," Volt said giving Edgar his own nickname before walking off waving, as if asking the duo to keep up, Artemis and Edgar nodded to each other before following after him. So with the first member joined from bad puns, the now forming army rushed back to Terminus.
