The Guilmon looked up at the now darkening sky, twilight at its finest. "I wonder if I'll stay like this forever? The sky looks so beautiful, even if I am so far from home." A small sigh came from the dragons mouth, "I wonder if I'll ever see mom or dad again. I don't suppose they'd love me if I looked like this." The wind flew through his claws and he could feel the sensation as it sent shivers up his arms and down his spine. His red skin glistened as it grew darker, catching every last bit of the suns rays as it faded below the mountains far off into the distance. "I can't believe I'm a dragon........I didn't think a human could become a dragon." Looking down at the ground the Guilmon took a seat and continued to look into the still fading sunset, running through the events of the what had happened. To think that his life had changed forever, in the course of a few hours.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So dry...it's so dry out here." Takeda looked around for any signs of life and found nothing, desert as far as the eye could see. Wind began to rage and whirl as it swept past him stinging his face as tiny grains of sand struck his bare skin. "Why did I even get off the train? I knew it wasn't my stop, my gut said I had to go but I knew I shouldn't have listened!" Slowly the boy made his way through the desert every so often turning directions to try to match the wind and relieve some of the stinging. Although this went on for some time Takeda had found himself at a canyon entrance, where strangely enough the wind had stopped raging. The tall cliffs looked worn down by what he could only assume was the wind. "Even after hundreds, if not thousands of years the wind can do that to rock? I wonder what it would do to my skin....." Putting his hands to his face, Takeda felt the stinging intensify as the blood began to rush back to his face and show just how raw the wind had scraped him. "I suppose there's no where else for me to go, I guess I'll have to head in." Takeda stomped on the ground to test how durable it was, judging that it was okay he set doen his bag and pulled out his rollerblades. Strapping them on he got to his feet and grabbed his bag, "No reason I should have to walk the entire time."

Ann walked slowly with fear. The alley didn't seem very safe, being so windy and desert. Or maybe it wasn't desert. It might have an evil mighty dragon there, like those in many fairytales, afterall, this was the the valley of dragons, right?Fortunatly she had her tiny digimon besides her. They gave strength to each other and they moved on.
In the distance she saw a boy. Alone. What had happened to him? She needed to know.
"Hey, you there!" She screamed to the boy as she started to run towards him.
"Wait, my princess, please!" Treat, her digimon asked trying to keep the pace desperatly. "Treat, don`t you see that boy over there on his own?" "Yes, yes, I do, but don`t run like that you..." "I what?" "He may be alone for a reason..." "You think he murdered his partner or something? Treat please, we need to help him." "Alright but let me do the talking." "I won`t, you would start some sort of spanish iquesition. But you can come in my shoulder and see if stabs me ok?" "Alright my princess, you don`t have to be that way." Ann picked up Treat and ran again with him on her shoulder. "Hey! Are you ok?" Ann asked the boy as she nearer

The ground was barely hard enough to skate on, but it sure beat walking. Looking around Takeda could see just how worn the canyon really was, "The wind really did a number on these rocks.....at least, I hope it was the wind." With a slight bit of fear in him Takeda pushed on further into the canyon. It had felt like he had been skating for what seemed like forever, but he had no way to tell. Every sound he made seemed to echo through the empty canyon, this simple fact caught him by surprise when he heard another's voice. "Hey, you there!" It rang through the canyon and got to Takeda who was stunned to hear what sounded like a girls voice. Takeda searched the canyon but didn't see anything, but off in the distance he caught a glimpse of a girl who was running towards him. "Is that another person? I haven't seen one since I got here!!!!!" Takeda pushed off with his skates to get to the girl as fast as he could.
As he got closer he could make out details about the girl, mainly the fact that she was younger than himself and that there was a green ball beside her. "Why would she be out here all alone? Then again I shouldn't be one to talk." Soon the girl picked the ball up and began to run to him, what was strange was the ball stayed on her shoulder and she didn't have to hold it there. "What kind of ball is that?" As Takeda asked that, a sort of heat had generated in his pocket right where he normally keeps his cell phone. Still skating he pulled out his phone to watch it be encircled by what could only be described as glowing bar codes. The phones shape began to change and honestly fit his hand better, he slowed down to watch as the bar codes swirled around and around his phone causing it to glow. The heat had slowly started to subside and the glowing was starting to fade revealing a red and black object in his hands. "Oh no mom is going to kill me! That was for emergencies only!" The object felt lighter but it was weird, it felt.... right as if he were meant to have it. That eased Takeda as he rolled to the girl. "Hey! Are you ok?" Takeda smiled a bit as the girl stood before him. "Never better, that sure is one crazy ball you have there." Takeda pointed to the girls shoulder, where the green ball rested without her holding it up.

"That's great." Ann said and smiled back upon hearing the boy was Ok. "And this is not a ball. It's my digimon, Treat."
"I sure am." Treat commented, a little bit offended.
"Here, let me show you." Ann took out her digibice and Treat digivolved into a kyokyomon. "See? My name is Ann by the way. Where is your digimon?"
"My princess maybe we should be a bit less direct on our questions." Treat whispered to his tamer.
Ann got down and whispered back:
"Why?"
"Well what if the digimon is...dead?"
The idea shocked Ann. She imagined what it would be like if Treat was dead like her brother. She felt sad suddenly. She would never be able to take it. She turned back to boy, to hear his answer. She hoped he didn't have a dead partner.

Takeda was taken back by the green ball that suddenly talked and changed its shape much like his phone did. "A Digimon? What is that thing.....is that a dragon?" Takeda's interest suddenly picked up, this little ball turned into what he pictured as a small dragon. Fascinated, Takeda began to poke the dragon to test if it was real. "She has a pet dragon with her.....who is she?" Takeda ran the last several moments through his head. He remembered the ball saying something about a princess..... "Is she a princess?" Takeda thought for a moment on the matter, "A Digimon, is that what they call dragons here? Why does she have one? Can I get one? Is it protecting her?" Takeda had thought it over and smiled before answering, "No I don't have a Digimon, but i'd sure like to have one. I do have a couple questions for you though if you don't mind. First off, I'm Takeda." He extended his hand out to shake hers, his smile still bright. "If she is a princess, I wonder if she could help me get out of here?"

Bith Ann and Treat were glad that the boy didn't know what a digimon was, because it ment he couldn't have a dead partner.
"No he is not a dragon, of course..." Ann answered, gigling. "A digimon is a... Treat you tell him."
"Of course my princess a digimon is being made out of data. In fact this entire world is made out of data. Like, computer data. But we are alive. We fight each other a lot, in fact. But some of us form bonds with humans and live to protect them. Serve them. Like me and my princess."
Ann shoo the boy's hand. It was a firm, yet tired hand shake, not usual in a boy.
"Well, you seem lost. This must be your first time here... Is there anything we can do for you?" Ann was really worried about the boy. If he didn`t have a partner, then what was he doing here? How would he defend himself? Treat, on the other hand was more into who this guy could be. Beyond being a newbied here and who he claimed to be he had to be something more or he would not be here. Treat knew no human went to the digital world without a reason.

Takeda was glad that the girl was friendly, at least he didn't have to be worried about being attacked by her Digimon. "Honestly I'm just looking for some company if you wouldn't mind, I have a strong urge to head in that direction." Takeda pointed the way he was originally headed, deeper into the canyon. "I'm not entirely sure why but I really feel like I should head inward and I'd love to have someone to talk to." Takeda pulled out his strange phone, it was now a dark red with a black handle and trim. He looked at it and compared it to what the younger girl had, he held it up to show her and smiled. "Mine is a little different than yours." Holding up his phone he revealed it to the young girl, "I think mine is a little cooler, but I like yours too. Ummm..... I never quite got your name....you are?" Takeda looked somewhat puzzled as he never got the girls name,"I wonder if she doesn't want to tell me her name because she IS a princess?"
(O.O.C. This is Takeda's D-Tector, but he still thinks it's his Phone)

"Ann, my name is Ann, and of course I will make you some company. Me AND Treat, right?" Ann replied with a smile on her face. "Yes, of course my princess" Treat stated, but after looking at the place Takeda was pointing at, he shivered and stated something else "But we`d better be carefull. This is the Valley of Dragon`s my princess, we may find some really strong, unfriendly digimon here..." "Where`s your sense of adventure Treat? You seem more like a little girl than I do..." "I...I...I..." "Let`s go then. Takeda while we`re walking, you might want to ask the questions you told me you had. And Treat stop sniffing. If there is a dragon is there, we won`t be any saffer just because you smelled it from na inch away." Treat did stop sniffing like a dog looking for it`s bone, but he didn`t turn to pay attention to the conversation. He didn`t know yet if Takeda would or would not be dangerous for his princess, but whatever could be on the caves they were heading into could be far worse.

Takeda smiled as the two bickered, "At least you two seem to get along." He brushed past the two and spun around on his Rollerblades to face them. "If anything unfriendly finds us, I'll be more than happy to protect the two of you." Takeda couldn't help but smile at what he said. He spun around again and skated forward on his blades. Under his breath Takeda simply muttered "At least I hope I can protect them." A small chill shot down his spine. "Right....umm so Ann, are you...are you r-r-really a princess?" Takeda stumbled in his sentences, something he wasn't used to doing. Maybe the thought of an actual princess was warping the way he was talking and thinking?

"No, of course I ain`t! Treat just calls me that, because, well..." Ann began to reply. She stopped because Treat called her that because Treat felt like he should treat her like roaylty, but she insisted that instead of "my queen" he would cal her "my princess", because that was what her brother used to cal her. Her DECEASED brother. "There`s no need to tell him my princess, you arledy answered the question." Treat tried to comfort her. "No, Treat, the first step to make friends is to be honest, that`s what grandpa always says." "Then, let Me start. Afterall, I was the one who suspected of Takeda, so I should apologize and be honest first. You see Takeda, I was born in the human world as with my princess here. By that time, I was just a Leafmon (that green ball you saw). Back then, I wasn`t even capable of speaking! But my princess took me in, she fed me and gave me a place to live and for that I will be eternally gratefull. I owe her to serve her and protect her. For that reason I started to cal her "my queen" when I began to speak, but..." "I will take over from now Treat." "You`re sure?" "Yeah. As he was saying he began to call me "queen". I thought it was some kind of joke at first and told him to stop. He explained to me why he was doing it and I remembered my brother. He had died a few months back, in a boat accident. He used to cal me "my princess"" Ann laughed a bit to herself, remembering the good times with her brother "So, I asked to Treat to do the same. He agreed and never stopped doing it. He is really dedicated." "You flatering me my princess." "Stop that, you know it`s true. You get to be cute and still sound like my brother, which is something that not everyone can say. In fact...He is the only one. Takeda I...I didn`t had any friends, I couldn`t bare being close to anyone until Treat showed up. He makes me feel like my brother is still here, with me."

After hearing what Ann had to say, Takeda could only tear up. "That's beautiful Ann, I'm glad that Treat hear can bring you happiness." Takeda put his left hand atop his head and looked at the two. "With what Ann told me, there's no way I can let anything happen to her.....or Treat. I have to make sure that they're alright as long as I'm with them." He looked back deeper into the canyon and then looked at the two again, his feeling of protection nearly matching the strange urge to go deeper into the unknown. "What am I going to do? I don't want anything bad to happen to her or Treat, but I feel like I have to go into the canyon more. Treat said something about UNFRIENDLY Digimon....what happens if we run into one? If Treat's scared shouldn't I be?" Takeda smiled and looked up at the sky, "So should we head out? I'm up for an adventure!"

"Let`s go then." Ann replied, after Takeda`s moment of silence having been interrupted by a sudden urge to move on. They speeded up and soon were at the entrance of a large cave which seemed to be really large, especially inside. "My princess, are you sure you want to come in?" Treat asked, fearing for their safety "Of course, I mean, there must be SOMETHING here, right?" Ann answered, with a burst of resolution. She also was afraid, but she told Takeda they would accompany him and they would. "That`s what I`m afraid of, but if you want to go anyway...At least let me enter first, test the ground." Treat stated "Treat I..." "No my princess. I go in first or no one goes." "It`s not like you can stop me." "Or you me." Treat turned from Ann and "ran" into the cave. Ann ran after him, but soon she lost sight. "Treat? Treat where are you? Are you ok? Look, I`m sorry about that come back!" Ann called "So far, so good! I think I found something we can use. Give me a second...." Suddenly a large flight appeared not too far away from Ann and Takeda, revealing Treat next to a large golden Torch. "Here it is." Ann looked around her. There were markings all over the cave. The markings appeared to be clawings and cave-men paitings. There were weird symbols all over that place. "Wow, this is amazing. Who do you think did this?" Ann asked.

The cave's entrance was vast and inside was dark, two things that momentarily frightened Takeda. For a brief second he was reminded of the time his father took him fishing at one his famous "hidden lake spots". They had docked the boat and set up a nice picnic when a small rock slide revealed a small cavern hidden away. The cave was so dark but Takeda had his father to protect him, he felt comforted by that fact. He came to reality and could only think about that moment, "I felt so comfortable because I knew I was safe. I'm not sure I can make Ann and Treat feel the same way." Takeda looked around but didn't see anyone, "Ann, where did she........" Takeda heard a feint sound coming from inside the cave. "Great they went inside." Takeda entered the cave, only to stumble a bit.
Taking off his skates and putting his shoes back on, Takeda finally caught up with Ann and Treat. A Flight of stairs stood before them, a well built flight of stairs? "This seems strange, these really shouldn't be here...." Looking around, there were what looked like primitive paintings along the walls with strange markings or symbols scattered about. Takeda could hardly see them, due to the only light source being a torch that Treat had been holding. Looking back at the stairs, Takeda's heart began to pound faster. "I.......I need.......I need to go UP the Stairs?" The same urge that pulled him deeper into the canyon was now pulling him up the stairs, to an even darker unknown area. "Wow, this is amazing. Who do you think did this?"
Takeda looked back at Ann. "I'm not sure, but I have a strange feeling about this place. Maybe we should leave..." Takeda found himself slowly walking to the stairs, as if he was possessed. He was nearly unable to control himself as he continued to get closer and closer. The feeling, it suddenly stopped and Takeda snapped out of his trance. He looked back to Ann and smiled. "I'm not sure who built it but they sure did a heck of a job with the stairs. Lets head out now befo......." Takeda's heart began to beat faster and he dropped to his knees, he held his hand to his chest and could feel a warmth inside him. "Ann we need to go up the stairs."

At first it seemed like Takeda was as admired as na with the "decoration" of the cave. Then he started to strangely move towards the set of stairs every time he was about to ask to leave. Finnaly he fel to his knees and begged to climb the stairs. "Takeda...are you ok?" Ann asked the boy. Treat simply looked up to the stairs. It was getting a bit hard to hold the torch. "Ann, do you mind holding this for a minute?" Treat asked his tamer "Sure." Ann replied, picking up the torch "Why?" "Because I`m going up first." Treat started to move up the stairs with some trouble, then sliping back and falling from the stairs. "I think this time you can`t." Ann said, gigling. She picked up Treat and put him onto her pocket. "I hope you don`t mind going there, I need to help Takeda too." "Don`t worry my princess, I`m fine." It was a lie. He was extremly uncomfortable, almost sufocating, but he didn`t want to worry Ann. "Takeda, let`s go, I`ll help you up. But what is so important about the stairs suddenly?"

"What's so important about the stairs......" Takeda started to trail off, "What just happened to me? What's going on, I dont think I should go up there but I feel I NEED to." "Sorry Ann, I'm not entirely sure what it is but I know I have to go up there." Takeda brushed himself off as he got up, his heart returned to a normal pace and everything seemed to return to normal. He gave Ann a hug as he looked around the cave, "I'm so glad I had someone here with me, thank you both. You have no idea how scared I was when I fell down." He let her go and turned towards the stairs, he slowly began to climb them not knowing what was on the way up. He stopped and looked around the stairwell but he realized it was too dark. "DUH!" Takeda turned around and headed back down to see Ann. "You have a torch," He smiled at her. "Would you mind going first or should I take the lead?" He extended his arm out either to grab the torch or to help Ann up the stairs.
