Seemed they were all in agreement the place looked quite nice, but Hawkeyes comment did annoy Luna a little bit, she was being cautious. "Yeah, which is why I reminded us to be careful." but thinking on it her word choice could've been better. "I meant more like, you'd think a location like this might make a tourist spot, granted the fact it's in a volcano would turn some Digimon off." Luna gave a small laugh just thinking about it, Volcano travel agency. "But Don't worry, I'm not new at this ya know? Stay on our toes, eh figuratively not literally." maybe she didn't need to say that but she ended up doing so anyway.
The path ahead was quite wet, it felt a bit weird on her feet as she walked, however Luna seemed to have absolutely no trouble walking on the path, she was leading the pack now a bit ahead. Looking back she realized she was walking a bit fast and slowed down. "Sorry, I'm used to walking on ice and slippery surfaces, comes with the being an ice affinity digimon."
Silence was also something Luna didn't like, luckily Kaya seemed more than happy to break it before she did. "Yeah, that's the place. I don't live there, I actually don't have a home per say, I stay at whitewater Inn a bit or just rough it outside. As for why I was going there." for once Luna lost her smile and got lost in thought a bit as she walked. "Like I said I had a partner, we explored a lot together and he helped me with my uhh, navigation issues." Luna laughed a bit reminding herself of an old memory.
"Ever since I reincarnated I haven't been able to find him, so I'm searching for him. I'm worried something happened to him so I've been traveling around. It's hard cause I'm not as strong as I used to be but I gotta." pausing for a moment she sighed.
"His old form was an Impmon, but he usually is in his Mega form Beelzemon. Oh but he's not evil or anything like that, he's quiet but really sweet. Him being an Impmon has caused us our fair share of problems." Luna laughed thinking on the past. "He wears a pendent though, goes by Dust. We don't know why though, he has amnesia and that's the only name in his head."
Then all of the sudden Luna realized just how much she unloaded. "And here I am sharing stories of my boyfriend with strangers, hehe. Sorry about that feel free to ignore that all if you want." Luna said looking away embarrassed she just said all that.

Hawkeye rolled his eyes in response to Luna's rambling. "Ah yes, a place that's very easy to be deleted in whether it be falling rocks or slipping and falling should DEFINITELY be an area for tourists to flock to," Hawkeye said sarcastically.
"Don't be like that, Hawkeye," Kaya replied with a groan in her voice. She wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he was just on edge, since he did just save Kaya from a falling rock, but did he have to be this rude? Oh well, she'd tell him off it it happens again...
Kaya decided to get to know the Digimon that was traveling with them. She said that while she was going to the Binary Archipelago, she didn't actually live there, or have any place to call home really. "Oh, you're a traveler? Hawkeye and I like to travel around the Digital World, but we live in a house back in Shibuya. Before that, he lived in a village in the Server Woods until I showed up after a portal suddenly appeared by my house and pulled me in."
Luna's smile disappeared when she began speaking about her partner/boyfriend. She had been searching for him ever since her reincarnation, an Impmon who went by the name of Dust. "I understand," Hawkeye said, surprisingly. "When you... you love someone, you'd go to the ends of the world to find and protect them. And when they're gone... when they're gone, it's as if the world around you is coming apart. Am I correct?"
After this conversation the group would have reached the end of the descending path, which leads into a path that seemed to lead to the waterfall a mile away, a river calmly rushing to the right of the path. With no other clear path, that would be their destination.

Hawkeye was being sarcastic at Luna's point, usually one might get mad but she laughed it off and started smiling a bit again. "Trust me, I've seen all kinds of digimon round. A lot of them wouldn't be put off by a dangerous volcano tourist spot. Actually I think I know a few that are directly looking for a type of spot like that." there were a lot of digimon that loved danger, the higher the threat of deletion the better. "But yeah most probably wouldn't want a dangerous island adventure, Still nice either way."
Traveler was probably the best word for it, she had been all over the digital world while looking for someone who remembered Dust, but a village inside of server woods was something new to her. "A village in server woods? Huh I've never heard of an area like that, but a portal appearing inside your house, must've been scary. Guess it's good you got partnered with Hawkeye then." Luna had 0 ideas on how tamers worked, yet that felt like an awkward question to ask and she was pretty sure Kaya had no idea either.
But surprisingly Hawkeye seemed to get what Luna was talking about, she decided not to ask how but nodded. "Yeah, we were always together and now that I'm alone I don't know what else to do but look for him." thinking on it for a second she nodded to herself. "I know he's out there though, he's way too stubborn to die. If he isn't well… I'll just hafta find his pendent." she at least needed closure on his situation.
But it seemed their next destination was close at hand as she finished talking, looking up at the waterfall, Luna felt a bit on edge still glancing around the area just in case anything happened, she might be weak now but she'd do what she could to protect Kaya and Hawkeye.

"It's a secluded village, not very open to outsiders," Hawkeye explained. "One too many bandit attacks caused the villagers to be really tight on who they let in and out of the village, including myself. I had to delete a few rookies myself since they refused to listen when I said they were not allowed in."
"And having a human girl suddenly appear into existence right inside of the village didn't help much, I'm assuming?" Kaya asked, with Hawkeye responding by shaking his head no.
Kaya understood how Luna was feeling as well. She had known Hawkeye for just over a year now, and she just can't imagine life without him at this point. "I'm sure he's out there somewhere, you know? Maybe he's looking for you as well, and you two are just going around in circles trying to find each other!"
As the group walked, Luna would suddenly step on a hidden pressure plate before the ground would to rumble. Kaya looked over at the nice river as it started looking less nice by the second. It suddenly started to steam and lose its velocity, gaining a redish orange color. The path they had just come down fell apart as well, and rocks started falling from the ceiling. In the span of fifteen seconds the area had suddenly changed to what you'd actually expect the inside of a volcano to look like.
"It's a trap!" Hawkeye called out. He looked forward, taking note that the waterfall had not changed at all somehow. "The waterfall is still our destination, let's move! Now!" They'd have to look out for a bunch of falling rocks and splashing lava as they ran.

Bandit attacks huh? Luna had to admit she couldn't relate, never really having a place to call home herself, but boy did it sound pretty bad. "Understandable, can't be too cautious I suppose." Luna found herself agreeing, while she liked trusting others they had to look out for the whole village that might not be able to protect themselves the way she could. "But yeah must've been interesting having Kaya drop in. Guess if I ever find myself around that place I should just name drop you two, though I doubt Dust'd be anywhere near there."
But Kaya mentioning Dust looking for her did seem to occur to Luna "I did think about staying put and waiting but, I dunno. Just a feeling I have that I gotta look or else something might happen." what that something was Luna couldn't say but remembering Dust's past and the enemies they had….
Luna felt her foot drop a bit lower than she anticipated, looking down she saw her a rather large pressure plate sitting there, removing her foot it didn't come up, she had been watching where she was going… it must've blended into the environment rather well. Still no time to think about that now as literal hell broke loose. Hawkeye pointed out the obvious and referred to the waterfall. Considering the path behind them was gone and everything else was Lava she was forced to agree.
While the two of them ran ahead Luna followed suit holding her hand to her chest as her pendent glowed slightly. "Dark Barrier heed my call!" opening her eyes a flash of energy surrounded her as she casted another barrier around the three of them. While she figured it wouldn't be able to take a direct shot from the rocks or Lava it'd still keep them protected from the smaller rocks and splashes of Lava if they came too close.. "Don't worry the barriers are doing just keep running!" Luna shouted to make sure they didn't think this was some part of the trap.

"Trust me when I say the villagers there would either seriously question you, forcibly kick you out, or in the most extreme case try to kill you," Hawkeye replied when Luna mentioned possibly visiting that village at some point. "Visiting there is completely out of the question."
"Sorry but I'm gonna have to agree with him on this one," Kaya admitted. She knew that those villagers, while very nice, were equally as paranoid and protective.
Now thanks to Luna and not some divine force that forced Luna to step on a trap, the nice little cavern has now turned into what you'd ACTUALLY expect from a volcano! It was clear that they now needed to pick up the pace, especially with falling rocks and magma endangering them all. As they ran, they were suddenly surrounded by some kind of bizarre barrier. While it was surprising, Kaya noticed how the smaller falling rocks were just bouncing right off of it. Luna revealed that this barrier was her doing, one of her abilities. "That's very handy, I must admit..."
While Kaya was trying her hardest to keep a straight face, in reality she was terrified. She didn't want to burn to death, or be crushed to death... she didn't want to die at all! Eventually she just stopped running, sitting down on the ground and curling up into a ball. "I can't, I can't!" Kaya cried. "This was a horrible idea, I wanna go home! I want my mom!" The human now seemed like a shell of her former self, crying as she refused to move. A worried look forming on his face, Hawkeye went up to Kaya, holding her hands with his wings He looked deep into her eyes as he spoke. "Kaya, listen to me; you remember when you told me that story about you and your family going on that river ride with your friend Adrian? You told me how he reminded you that you were brave and confident when you got scared on that trip. That's still true, isn't it?"
"Well... yeah... but I-"
"You are so young yet you are the most courageous human I have ever seen. I will be with you every step of the way. We have a barrier around us, and not only that, but I will personally make sure that no harm will ever come to you." Hawkeye gulped before saying this next part. "I love you, Kaya."
"I... I love you, too!" More rocks began to fall as Kaya and Hawkeye gave each other a big hug, the danger surrounding them increasing. However, suddenly, two beams of light came right out of the waterfall and towards the group, circling around everyone as it created a kind of wind barrier that disintegrated any falling rock and dispersed any lava that might fall on them. "What... what is this?!"

Ok this seemed fine, all they had to do was keep running and hopefully they'd make it. Though that was hard considering two of the three had stopped running. Luna looked behind herself at the two of them and back to the possible safety. Luna fought with her own goals of finding Dust and not wanting to abandon anyone. She quickly decided however and ran back to Hawkeye and Kaya not finding it in herself to leave them. "C'mon Kaya, I know you got this. We just gotta push through. Trying and failing is still better then giving up and failing." Luna said trying to get the human to stand back up.
Sadly her barrier wouldn't last forever and slowly vanished from her body and the other two. Looking around she didn't see a way out of this, Hawkeye seemed to be getting through to Kaya so she could only hope that would get her moving. But then it just seemed too late. "Sorry Dust, never got to tell you how I really feel. If I don't come back with my memories I hope you know I love you." She said to nobody as she prepared for what seemed to be her final hour.
Waiting and nothing seemed to come, opening her eyes she saw a barrier protecting them for all the danger around them. "Uhh, power of love conquers all?" Luna said with a shrug, all three just said to their loved ones, despite Luna's one not being here, they loved them so maybe that was it.

In a sudden turn of events, the group was seemingly being saved by a twisting tornado that disintegrated any falling rocks or dispersed any splashing lava that would fall near it. But what exactly was causing all of this? This kind of thing definitely did not just happen out of nowhere for no reason, right?
Suddenly, from within the high winds of the tornado Kaya could see two egg-shaped object, a silver one with wings and a violet one with two golden swords. She slowly reached out her right hand to grab at the silver one, noticing how it seemed like the winds were simply being pushed away from her hand.
Could these be that power we were looking for...?
Without hesitation, Kaya grabbed hold of the silver object and pulled it out, the purple object turning into light and going right into Kaya's digivice. And with that, the tornado vanished, the group once again susceptible to the falling rocks and lava. This time however, Kaya did not freeze. She extended the hand holding the silver object out, a burning fire in her eyes.
"Digi Armor Energize!"
And just like that, the silver relic exploded into yet another tornado that surrounded the group. Yet this time it was so powerful that it was nearly impossible to see anything at all. Kaya and Luna could both feel themselves being lifted up and levitating upwards into the air. Once the tornado had ceased, the two would find themselves very high up into the sky, hundreds of feet above the volcano, with Hawkeye seemingly nowhere in sight.
Before either of them had time to scream, something flew right underneath them to catch them both. It was a quadrupedal bird creature with redish brown feathers and a silver mask - a mask that looked a lot like the silver relic from earlier. "Are you two okay?" the creature would ask as they flew.
Kaya would almost immediately recognize that voice. "Hawkeye...?"
"Yes, that is me. I am now Halsemon, the Wings of Love. The Digitama you activated allowed me to armor digivolve."
"Armor digivolve... that means we actually got what we were looking for in there!"
Hawkeye chuckled. "It appears that we did. Just in time, too..."

Welp a bunch of stuff just happened that Luna didn't really know how to respond to, she sorta just stood there a bit dumbfounded as this all went on. Was it supposed to go this way or was Luna just being a bit off on this whole subject she didn't know too much about off hand, did it always go like this trying to get those digi-things that they were trying to get? Why did the place suddenly blow up? What would've happened if they kept running instead. All these questions didn't seem to have answers at the moment and Luna was fine with that as she was mostly just fine with the whole not dying part of this adventure. The thought crossed her mind that she should've just backed out of this whole thing at the start considering there wasn't anything for her to do but make a barrier twice but hey barriers are cool.
And now she was at the top of the volcano, alright now her instincts were trying to kick in, maybe she'd evolve an- nope they were saved almost instantly by Hawkeyes new form. "Define Okay" Luna joked with a small laugh that only someone who nearly died for two nearly complete strangers can make. "Does this sorta thing happen often to you two?" Not that she was one to talk as danger did also like trailing her but this whole thing reminded her of Dante, in the sense that any time she met him pretty much everything in the area was liable to explode at some point.
"Nevertheless congrats on the new form, looks nice. I'm sure it's strong too." she didn't know what else to say.
