"Tell him to prove it, if he really means it he'll meet me at "That place" a month from now."
Those had been the words that Bloom the Palmon had relayed to her tamer, the words than said girl then repeated to Dio. The meaning was something that was clear only to him and Bloom, an unspoken agreement they had settled on long before Dio's own pride had hurt the already feeble bond the two digimon shared.
They barely knew eachother, they had hardly shared more than 40 minutes total of conversation between the two...yet Dio still cared enough to show up to the agreed location a whole month after their last meeting. Why? Not even he was certain.
Perhaps it was to fix his shattered pride, perhaps to prove something to Bloom. Perhaps he actually cared about her feelings. But the end result was still the same nonetheless. As much as he had been dreading it the day finally arrived, and without a hint of hesitation the imp left the relative safety of the Training Grounds and made his way to the Cipher jungle. Still somewhat bruised up from his little unfortunate encounter with a BlackGabumon just a couple days before, but otherwise none worse for wear, and he really didn't have the time to go back to the Library and rest.
Once the Dark Lord made a promise, he was going to keep it. As such he was now calmly sitting under the shade of a tall tree, making a small spark of fire roll between his fingers to entertain himself while he waited for the Palmon to arrive.

To say that this last month was unventful it will be lying, Miyu and Bloom had a lot of interesting encounters , but one unexpected meeting was the one that stand out the most and it was at the very firsts weeks of the past month, when Miyu decided to go back and have a normal life for a while, she started selling food and one of their first clients were Carlos and Dio.
Things were "fine", Dio was a little sick for something they didn't get much details but it was obvious that a Digimon was involved, Bloom did her best to nurse the imp and she can safely say that she manage to help a lot and they even share a heart to heart moment but the pride of the Dark Lord was stronger than anything they said and well... Let's not enter into details, but if he wants to fix things she ask Miyu to tell him to meet her from in a month to the place they spoke.
And here we are a month has passed and thankfully Miyu's short term memory help the Palmon to avoid having her here, as much as she's happy for her tamer to get little by little the plant still thinks that it'll be best if she stays out of the big places for now and while it's true she herself can't do much now if a Champion or ultimate decides to attack the innocent looking plant you have to give credit when credit is due because the Imp did decided to show up a little bruised but she won't pay attention to it not falling for the same act twice
"Well, color me impressed, didn't actually expect you to show up" The plant said in a snarky tone "Hope you're ready and full of energy becase we might have a long day behind us"

"Well hello to you too." He greeted the plant with an equally sarcastic tone, fighting back to urge to roll his eyes in annoyance. She sure was still holding on to that grudge, that much was obvious. It would certainly make things a bit...harder to get through, but Dio knew this was a possibility, so he did his best to stay not so much positive but rather not completely miserable.
"How far into the Jungle is this place?" He asked, trying to ignore her bad attitude, as well as hoping to sate his curiosity. He wasn't all that good at navigating jungles, so he was completely depending on Bloom having a good sense of direction.
While he himself wasn't all too thrilled for going back into a place that brought him some...rather unfortunate memories, he hoped it would be worth it in the end, if not to mend things with Bloom at the very least to get his mind off that particular burden.
"So uhm...how's Miyu?" He'd ask once they got started, in an attempt to hold at least a short conversation with the Palmon to make this walking go by just a little bit quicker.

Bloom didn't take lightly the greeting of Dio, if we are fair she deserves it but one would expect for the dark lord to try a little, tho we are speaking of the DORK lord so trying is off the table, well at least he was ready to start moving, which the plant just answer by nodding and walking by, how far? She honestly doesn't know nor Dio has to know that she doesn't know otherwise surely he'll leave her at her luck
"If I told you it wouldn't be an adventure, right?"
And so the nice stroll through the jungle started, the humidity on the place was easily felt and the ground was soft as if not so long ago was raining, big tall and thick trees surrounding them some of them with a couple of bird digimon and even Wormmon in the climbing them, surely one without a map would lost with ease but for Bloom every plant and tree was different in a way she felt she already was here and walk follow that instinct
"She's doing fine, mostly boring days on the human world, we cross path with Haru and met her sister, also Tawna's Plotmon X form trigger her "Must hug" instinct", it's nice to see the club is doing good makes me want to be part of it again but it was Miyu's decision to leave and I won't go against it" Palmon answered and kept the small talk, she can agree that this will make the walk a little more interesting. "How's Carlos?"
As fun as this stroll was it had to stop as in front of them there was a 20 ft cliff blocking their way, surely this mean they have to take another route, right? Well Bloom had an idea to sort this obstacle with ease, but the question is would Dio be able to do it?
The plant look at the imp with a mischievous smile, she extended her vine like claws and got a hold of some rocks of the cliff using her claws as a rope she started basically walking up the cliff and in just a matter of a minute or so she was already at the top sitting at the edge waiting for Dio to follow up, sure she will make him work to clib but if for any reason he slips and it's too high to the point the fall might hurt him she'll use her vines to catch him, but for now let's enjoy the view and the scene

"Fair enough. Lead the way." The imp shrugged but didn't question the plant. If she wanted to be mysterious about this it was fine by him. It's not like he expected this to be a quick five minute deal.
Despite the fact every tree was indistinguishable from the next for the imp, it would seem Bloom was quite convinced on where to go next, so he could at least count himself lucky for not having to traverse the jungle on his own. Again.
As they made their way through the greenery he'd nod at Bloom's answer. It was nice to hear her tamer had been doing fine at the very least. Not that he cared or anything, no sir. "He's fine, we saw her girlfriend the other day. Apparently they had something of a disagreement at the beggining but I think they're...fine now? At least I guess so, he's staying over at her place as we speak." He replied to her own question, shrugging a bit. Sure there had been plenty other weird happenings, but it didn't feel like a good moment to get into details about most of them. "Human relationships are weird."
As they reached the tall cliff he began looking for a possible way around it...when he suddenly took note of the rather mischievous smile Bloom gave him, to which he could only reply with a somewhat confused look. It became clear soon however what she was smiling about as she made her way to the top with incredible ease...without offering Dio any kind of help for getting up there. The imp sighed, so this is how she was going to do things?
Well, his pride kept him from simply turning around and leaving, much less asking help, so with a determined look he'd crack his knuckles before firmly planting one hand on the rocky cliff side, then the other, before grasping at the rock with all his might as he planted his feet and began the slow climb up. It was...harsh, to say the least, his body not entirely used to such harsh climbing conditions, and there were one or two moments where he was this close to loosing his footing and rolling back down all the way to ground level, but with enough will power and sheer stubborness, he'd finally reach the top. Once there, he'd waste no time falling to his knees right next to the surely smirking palmon, gasping for air.
"...are there...any more cliffs like that on the way?" He asked in between exhausted breaths, his tone carrying a somewhat noticeable snarky tone again as he gave her a smug (if a bit unconvincing) grin. "Maybe you could give the Dark Lord some climbing pointers next time though..."

Good to hear that all things considered Carlos was doing fine, even if he had a problem with his girlfriend at least he's not too dense to make things worse or that's how Dio is making it sound, it's both a little painful and funny the fact that imp does not see the irony here, maybe throwing a little jab will help
"You know? The more time I spend in the human world with Miyu the more I realize that Human relationships are not that different than digimon relationships, it can be long lasting friendships that start with something simple as meeting each other in a park and can be as easily broken by a little mistake" She said, if he didn't catch up with that Dio was a lost case "Good on Carlos for making his best to fix the bond" The same could be said for Dio here trying but it still needs to be seen if he's here because he actually cares or just out of guilt
And then the Cliff happen, the plant had such an enjoyment of seeing the dork lord try his best to reach the top, being 100% honest there were some moment that she thought of grabbing him with her vines and pull him up but all things considered he was doing fine, once he finally reach the top Bloom giving him a soft headpat and look at him smiling
"Promise there won't be anymore cliffs, at least I don't remember anymore" She winked and stick her tongue out, tho it looks like it she's not mocking him it's more of a friendly jab to ease things.
After giving the dark lord a little break to catch his breath they kept moving, this part was significant more bare than below, not too many trees but and the sun was at full force but luckily it wouldn't last long as soon the thick jungle trees with those big flowers that fill the surroundings with a sweet scent, after a couple of minutes walking they reach a small pond, the water was clear and some Otamamon and pitchmon were swimming on it
"We can take a break here and re hydrate if you want, if memory serves me right we are really close"

If there was any positive thing one could say about the self proclaimed Dark Lord, it was that he wasn't one to ignore a hint. He sighed, glancing at Bloom. "Right. I guess he can count himself lucky at least, not everyone gets a second chance after screwing up like that." He shrugged, giving the plant another somewhat blatant hint. "But it takes a bit more than just luck to mend and make things right."
As he was still recovering from that exhausting climb, truth be told Dio's smirk faltered for a moment, turning into a slight frown while his face blushed slightly while the plant pet his head. She was surely enjoying herself, wasn't she? Still, he did his best to let this slide, somewhat grateful she wasn't going much farther than that, and if anything smiled back at her, sticking out his own tongue in response, before he got back on his feet again and followed after Bloom.
Their short pause next to the pond was both welcome and sorely needed, as the imp was still a bit tired after the climb. He sat close to the pond and began drinking, using his hands to get the water to his mouth. Was it somewhat undignified of a Dark Lord? Perhaps, but he hadn't thought of bringing a bottle, so this was the best next thing.
At any rate that took care of his thirst, but there was still the issue of the sun. While the pond was big enough to take a short dip, Dio didn't feel much like doing the rest of the walk completely wet, so he opted for a simpler solution. Untied the red bandana around his neck and carefully submerged it under the cold water, before rubbing the now damp red cloth all over his face and head.
If Bloom were to look at him for more than a couple seconds she would no doubt take note of his uncovered neck, and the bite scars that still remained within it. That said, they looked a lot better after Bloom had taken care of them that last time. Even if she didn't notice, Dio was clearly quick to remember them, his movements coming to a sudden stop as he quickly put the bandana back on it's original place, as if the possibility of anyone glancing at his marred neck shamed him.
"I'm done here, if you're ready we can continue." He said, somewhat abruptly, seeminly eager to continue forward.

Is it really luck what it takes to get a second chance? Not in the eyes of Bloom at least, she's ready to give as many chances needed, for her there is no wrong that can be mend but that's of course due to the way she see things, her naive view of the world, the plant shrug and kept walking
"I don't think you need good luck, at least for me I'm ready to give you ten thousand chances if needed, you know that I believe that everyone is good deep down and can't do no evil just because, everyone has their reasons to be the way they are" She said calmly, in a way she understood why Dio did what it did and hurt her feelings a month ago, it's the way he is and was raised, the almighty dark lord make sense he wants to protect his dignity... However "Whether that reason is good or dumb is a different point" Another little jab won't hurt
Little talk and teasing aside it was nice to reach the pond and have a little time to take a break, while Dio use his hands to carry the water up to his mouth to drink, the plant had an easier time as she just needed to submerge her feet on the water and let her roots do the job, the benefits of being a plant!
Now that she was re hydrated the plant thought it would be a nice moment for a quick joke, seeing how Dio was so focused drinking water she thought it'll be funny to have some fun at his expense and give the imp a light push into the pond, she sneak her way behind him and when she was ready to push him she noted the scar on his neck and the plant stop completely.
Was at that moment that she remember that Dio had gone through a lot lately and taking advantage of his "good" will to come and help her was stepping a little out of line, the plant just nodded when the dark lord ask her if she was ready to continue and she lead the way.
It didn't took long for the duo to enter again the dense jungle with trees so big, that the leaves almost cover any possibility of light to enter, the ground felt really soft almost turning into mud and the flowers got bigger and with darker colors, tho slowly but surely that scenery started to change and the duo found a lot of fallen trees and the earth was dry, almost as if a big fight happen right here
"Who knows how many years have passed and yet this place has not change..." Bloom said, she remember this place clearly
It used to be like the rest of the jungle they just crossed, but one day a big fight develop and how to forget it when she was there, that was the day she met him, the one digimon that would change her view on life and strive to be better, to be like him, one event that develop the path she choose on her past life, was that what was calling her? maybe, but this was a nice finding as the sudden memories started to came and the Palmon couldn't hide her smile and blush when thinking of her savior

This time he was a bit quicker on the provervial draw, and caught on to the Palmon's somewhat subtle jab. She might have been willing to forgive him, but she certainly wasn't going to let him forget.
"Alright alright, I get your point." He said rolling his eyes a bit, though he did smirk back. "You know for someone so nice you sure can be ruthless with your words." Still, he had to respect her honesty, she wasn't afraid of saying what was on her mind, even if it meant making some fun of him.
That said, once they were done with their stop it would become obvious for the small impmon that they were probably getting closer, as their surroundings went through a lot of considerable changes: the vegetation growing larger and more impressive, and the flood getting softer and muddier, before becoming more dried and...almost desolate. It would have been a bit ominous to Dio had he not been with Bloom. Being alone in jungles was something he largely avoided whenever possible, after all.
"I'm guessing we're on the right track." He said, taking note of the plant's sudden smile and blush. He didn't know what could be going through her mind at that moment but it was clear this place meant a lot to her. He couldn't help but wonder how that might have felt, what little he remembered from his old life brought him nothing but bad memories and disdain. Really, in his mind Bloom should feel lucky, she had a place to call her own in the digital world. "You know what happened here?"

Bloom smiled and accepted the somewhat compliment of the imp, she does have a way with words and can be savage when she wants it, after all violence should be the last resource and words can be more hurtful than any other action, words are the reason they're doing this after all
"You know what they say, "Even the most beautiful flower have thorns"
That aside the plant was taking a small trip down memory lane, of course a rocky one since her memories of this place jumped to blanks every so often that remember everything it was kind of hard, yet she had a good grasp of what this place was and how far they were from her "Home" or at least what might be left of it
"Well... When I leave the Village of Beginnings this place felt like home to me, it had everything I wanted so I started looking for things to build my little house, leaves, logs and things like that" Said happily explaining as she reminisce of that time "One day I kind of upset a Cyclomon who chase me up to this place and corner me, it was at that moment when I thought that it was the end that out of nowhere BanchoLeomon jump and block shield me from that thing's attack and quickly took care of him warning that if he ever threatens me his right eye won't be the only thing crushed" The Palmon took a look for some of the trees looking for something and she quickly find it "I even crave on this tree a little doodle of the two of us as a commemoration of my savior"
It was a nice memory all things consider and that meeting was what then ignite her spark for being who she is, to do what is right and fight for the innocent, to be like the person that save her and that in due time help her get a group of friends that she actually could call family, even if they fought a lot between each other the Banchos were inseparable friends
As they continue walking they meet another cliff but unlike last time, they were on top and they have to go down, Bloom pointed down the cliff to a small little shack made of woods, that was their destination.
"Alright, hold tight because I don't want you to plummet into the ground after all this trip" Said Bloom holding with her claws one tree like last time to start going down, but she was waiting for Dio to hold her so both could go down
Maybe was that she actually felt bad for being so hard on Dio at the beginning or maybe she was on a good mood for the happy memory she had, thing is this time was trying to be nice and if Dio accepted and decided to go down the cliff together he would be able to smell a sweet scent coming from the Palmon's head a sign that she was happy

The purple imp barely made any comments as Bloom recounted her memories of the place, silently nodding every so often just to show he was actually paying attention.
"Sounds like a day to remember." Dio commented when she was done, nodding one last time with a smile. He'd have to stifle a small chuckle at hearing that Bloom went as far as to doodle her saviour however, not wanting to upset her yet again. Not that he laughed because he found it funny or laughable, but rather just...how freaking wholesome and adorable it was. That was something he always thought fondly off when it came to Bloom, how open she could be about what she thought of others. Truth be told, he could learn a thing or two from her on that front. "Any idea where that Leomon is now? If you don't mind me asking."
The reminiscing wouldn't last longer however, as the two came to a rather steep cliffside, one that would be far more trickier to traverse than the last one, at least for him. Bloom clearly was already used to it, as she was using her vines to ease her descent.
Dio froze for a moment as unlike the last cliff, Bloom offered him a helping hand to get down. He was about to accept without a second thought, when it suddenly dawned on him that it meant they would have to travel really tightly close to one another. Much like that time back on Earth, the time she tended to him and his ego ruined things for the both of them. Perhaps subconsciously not wanting to relive that, perhaps just being generally averse to that close a contact with really any digimon especially those of the opposite sex, he was understandably hesitant! Perhaps he could get down on his own?
The cliff was rather steep, and any wrong step could send him down to his doom, and digivolving into a flying form was out of the question too, he didn't trust his wings to help him in such a narrow space. With a sigh he decided to put his pride aside, and slowly approached the Palmon.
"S-sure, one sec." With care he'd position himself behind the plant's back, holding on to her armpits with his hands. He was glad she couldn't turn around to see her, less she noticed the glowing blush in his face. Maybe something to fill the awkward silence would help?"Uhm...did you put perfume on or something? You smell kinda nic..."
He stopped himself short of finishing that sentence, noticing just how...awkward it would probably sound, and decided to spend the rest of the trip down in silence.
"F-forget I said anything."

Bloom sighed when Dio ask about the whereabouts of BanchoLeomon, sadly the answer was a rotund no, the only thing she knows for sure is that he's roaming the digital world which meant that looking for him would be as easy as to find a needle in a haystack
"Not really... But I know one day I'll meet him again" And then what? Reunite the Banchos and let everything go back to normal? What about Miyu? Nope, not the time to think about this better keep going
It took sometime but Dio finally accepted, the plant smile as he hold her and both start descending it seems that after all he can eat his pride, should she tease him? Probably not or she wasn't going to until Dio spoke again asking if she was wearing perfume or something, honestly she burst into laughter so hard that almost lose her balance
"Oh? Did you really like it?~" She tease once she stop laughing and continue the descend "It's my natural scent, the flower in my head releases it to show how I feel, if it's sweet and soft I'm happy, if it's sour and ugly I'm extremely mad" Bloom decided to explain
After some minutes they reach the bottom and kept walking, not too far away was the shack they saw and what Bloom recognized as her "home", tho it was really well preserved and while she doesn't really know how much time she has been out it sure wasn't just a couple of days, she expected to be on a much worst condition.
She took the lead and walk fast to the entrance sadly she didn't met her goal as a couple of meters closer to the door the ground seemed to give in and the plant fell into a hole, the noise made some one inside in the shack to open the door, it was another plant digimon a Floramon to be precise and the first thing she saw was the trap hole catching some one and a virus digimon near, she wasn't taking any chances here
"STRANGER DANGER!" She said and quickly shoot one of her vines trying to grab Dio and pull him into the hole with Bloom

"I'm sure you will, you managed to survive this long, surely he did too." The imp said confidently with a nod, even going as far as to pat the palmon's back. Was he trying to sound encouraging? It certainly sounded like that by his tone, though his wording could have used a bit more thought put into it.
Though any confidence dissapeared from his tone as soon as the plant like digimon laughed quite loudly at his...compliment? Truth be told, he only found his face turning redder and redder, though certainly not from anger but something else entirely.
"I see..." He said, looking at the ground below them as if to try to hide the blush in his face...which was probably pointless since Bloom's attention was probably focused on getting them to safety first. "Well uh...glad you're in a good mood then." He wasn't lying either: having her laughing and happy was a huge improvement over how she had treated him at the start of their little walk...even it involved her laughing at his expense a bit. That part Dio could have done without.
At the very least it was relatively short lived, as they soon finally made it to ground level and headed for Bloom's old house. It was...smaller than Dio had envisioned for sure, and far more well kept. He decided not to comment on how it looked just yet, not wanting to get on the Palmon's bad side yet again, so he wordlessly followed after her as she made a beeline for the door. "Ladies first", after all. Though much to his shock she didn't even manage to open the door before she the floor gave way under her. A trap?!
"Bloom! You ok?!" He'd yell, looking down into the hole. This momentary distraction however short proved more than enough for the ensuing attack to completely blind side him however, a single vine wrapping itself around one of his arms and pulling him forward...and head first into the hole, a surprised grunt barely escaping his mouth before he fell.
Fortunately for him he had a slightly softer landing than Bloom, as her body proved to break his fall better than the dirt in the bottom of the trap hole. Well, fortunately for him at least, he couldn't imagine Bloom being too amused by having him crashing down on her.
"...I thought you said this place was abandoned..." The imp said in a pained tone, slowly getting up from Bloom and trying to get some space between the two...though considering the size of the whole that proved to be a bit difficult.

In just one second Bloom's happy mood banish, who and why would put a trap here? She was a 100% sure it wasn't her, in any case she should be able to get out rather easily as long as Dio is still above... Or that's what she thought the dork just walk up to the edge and got pulled into the hole falling on top of her
"Feeling confortable?" She ask in an equally pained tone waitign the imp to move away from her "Don't you dare be a smartass right now this place should be abandoned"
She was definitely annoyed by this, worst is that she didn't saw who make this thing and with Dio at the bottom with her there was no easy way to go up, unlike the cliffs before she can't see any trees or something to get a hold from the bottom of this hole, well that was the case until the Floramon got close to peek on the hole and see what else fall
"GOTCHA!" Bloom quickly extended her vine claws and try to wrap them around the plant digimon
The Floramon could only let a quick "EEK!" Before getting her arm getting wrapped in Bloom's vine and pulling her to the pit, she quickly extended the vine on her free arm wrapping it on a tree so she wouldn't fall too, and while that helped the Palmon sure was doing her best to pull her in.
"P-Please stop! I'm not that strong I might let go and fall with you two!"
At that point Bloom realize that it wouldn't be worth it to have 3 mons in a hole and no way out so she sighed and let go, the Floramon also sighed in relief yet took several steps away to be out of the Palmon's field of vision, from there she decided to talk
"What are you two doing here?" She asked, her tone of voice was soft and sweet something od for someone who has just been attacked
"Save the nice plant act! What are you doing on my house?!?" Bloom on the other hand had no inner voice in this moment she was angry
"Your house? Excuse you this place was abandoned and I fix it and made it my little lovely home~"
"I have a plan" She whisper to Dio so the Floramon wouldn't hear them "I'm going to grab you and send you up so you can take care of the intruder and then help me out, OK?" And before Dio could even say one word he was wrapped by Bloom's vines "Thanks, I knew I could count on you~"
And so Bloom put all her strength into pulling Dio up, it was a slow process but in just a couple minutes the dark lord was at the top, he could get a better look at the Floramon who quickly stood up and point her arms at him, tho she was obviously scared and shaking
"S-Stay away.. I-I am strong digimon... I uhm... I can poison and..." As she speaked she started to lose confidence with every word and her eyes started to tear up "Please don't hurt me!" And now she's crying.... Wonder what would Dio do now?

As gladly as Dio would have engaged in a smartassery battle with Bloom over their little predicament, he figured it was smarter to put that energy into something better like actually finding a way out. Perhaps if he digivolved he could fly them both out of there. He shook his head, deciding against that, the hole wasn't large enough for him to digivolve without crushing Bloom, and even if he didn't he'd still probably end up even more stuck.
Even once Bloom got a hold of the Floramon she was forced to let her go, else she risked making the hole even more cramped for everyone. Dio scoffed a bit but knew there wasn't anything else she could have done.
"Excuse me? "My lovely home?" This isn't your place, you just found it abandoned and decided it was yours?" The imp spat at the Floramon, incredulity in his voice. The gall of that plant to steal Bloom's place while she was away...then again, how long had Bloom been gone? Not that he was able to ask that, as Bloom was quick to whisper a plan into his ear...and start to put it into motion without waiting for his approval!
"Hey hold up, I never agreed to-" He'd complain, before the vines of the Palmon wrapped around his frame. A rather odd yet not completely uncomforatble experience he wasn't interested in being a part off, but didn't really have a choice in the matter anymore. "Tch, fine."
It didn't take long for Dio to get out of the hole with her help, and once he was out? Well he'd leap out of Bloom's grasp and in front of the Floramon of course, aiming his now flaming index finger at her.
"And what? Please do tell, I'm curious." He asked with a glare, a dangerous tone in his voice. Now that he was up here, he was ready to fight and take the plant out of comission...or at least he was, before she started crying. The imp frankly just...froze up at this, taken completely by surprise.
"Wh-what are you doing?" He stammered, more shocked than anything at this point, his glare softening into a somewhat confused stare. "Quit it! The Dark Lord won't show mercy to cowards you know!" He said trying to sound threatening, though the tremble in his tone made that somewhat hard to believe. Truth be told even if he had the chance he wouldn't shoot at her like this. Attacking a crying foe felt...low. Pathetic, far below something the Dark Lord would do.
