Daniel took a drink from his water bottle the cool liquid sliding down his throat and removing the dryness his mouth had been having up to this point. He had been so caught up in removing the dryness within his throat he hadn't payed any attention to how much he'd been drinking. A frown quickly crossed his face. No more water escaped from the bottle and he lowered his head crumbling the plastic container within his hands before tossing aside and into the sand. What had the two of them been thinking? This long and expansive desert didn't seem like it was going to end anytime soon, and quite honestly Daniel wasn't even sure which direction they were heading in. Why he let Guilmon talk him into going on this little adventure he'd never know, wasn't school starting up soon? He couldn't afford to be taking these long trips to the Digital World, the chances of getting lost or injured were so high in this place. He didn't need to be missing days or weeks of school that would certainly draw the attention of his father.
Dan ran a hand through his messy blonde hair and turned his head towards his partner the red Lizard walking along next to him like he wasn't affected by the sun that was beating down on them. Knowing Guilmon that was probably true. The Lizard had a knack for being able to stand large amounts of heat with no problem, sadly Daniel didn't have that. "I hate you." Daniel said looking away from his partner, the harsh words escaped from his lips but he didn't really mean them.
The lizard known as Guilmon only sighed and kept on walking, "It shouldn't be much longer, we've gotta be getting close to the ruins." the ancient ruins said to hug the very edges of the Folder Desert were the whole reason they had come out here. Guilmon had heard some pretty interesting rumours about the place, and that untold treasure lied deep within its halls. It felt like it be a pretty interesting adventure for him and Dan to have, he didn't think they'd be spending so much time walking though.
As the sun beat down on him and he wiped some sweat from his forehead an idea popped inside of Daniel's mind and he smiled wide. His feet stopping moving one the grin crossed his face. "Why don't we fly?" Daniel asked as he pulled his digvice from his pocket and looked towards his partner.
Guilmon blinked his eyes and gave a shake of his head...of course Dan would think of something like that. Though despite how badly he wanted to tell Daniel that abusing his ability to reach Ultimate like this wasn't something he shouldn't be doing. Guilmon had to admit it would certainly be faster than walking. Which was why he gave a nod of his head towards Daniel.
"Yes!" Daniel said as he looked down at his Digivice and forced his energy to surge through the D-3. The screen began to flash telling Daniel that he had activated Digivolution, and suddenly Guilmon became covered in a bright red light. Daniel watched as his shaped change growing larger and more powerful and growing a pair of wings.
"GUILMON WARP DIGIVOLVE TO...MEGADRAMON!" the large cyborg Dragon replaced the small red Lizard that had been standing next to Daniel before. Megadramon lowered his body floating body downward so that Dan could hop on his back. Once his tamer was hanging tightly onto his back he flew upward and then took quickly moving forward. The wind brushing against both them felt nice, and Megadramon heard Dan make a point of it.
"Oh it's so awesome that you've learned to fly! The wind in your hair is just amazing!" he shouted as loud as he could, and now that were moving at high speeds they quickly began to reach the large and ruins. Once they came into view Daniel couldn't help but smile wide, "I can see it now Guilmon!" oh how the fun times were about to start. Made by Dizzy of Gangam Style |

Water... water was all that was on the Tamer's mind as he crawled after his digimon, who, despite wearing full kendo gear, seemed to be getting along fine. "Kotemon!" He shouted at his companion. "You took me out of Phys Ed class to DRAG ME ACROSS A DESERT!" He shouted, providing a simple exposition for this scenario. The tamer wore shorts, running shoes, and a wifebeater, all of them coated with sand.
"Of course!" Came Kotemon's cheerful but not-masculine-nor-feminine voice. "They were gonna have you run a mile. I'M having you walk 10! Now pick yourself up, we only have seven more to go!"
"How are you not dying? You're in the desert, covered in armor, and haven't drank anything since w-" He frowned as he noticed a bulge in his partner's hands, covered up by his sleeves. Getting up and tackling the mon, they began wrestling over the object. Knowing to restrict his partner's training sword, he finally succeeded and removed the object, revealed to be a canteen.
"Well I hope you're happy!" Kotemon said, climbing out of the sand and watching his partner down the sweet refreshment. "Not only did you take your reward early, but now we're both gonna have to work for our water."
"I'm turning back, getting back on that train, and heading home." He said, frowning and turning around... "Good luck with that, you dunno where we are." Ketomon responded, brushing itself off. "And you broke the compass with your little excursion." His partner turned and glared. "What do you mean "broke the compass"? I didn't do anything! You're the one tha-"
Enough of that. The two continued bickering in the desert, standing out only in due to thanks to Kotemon's horns reflecting the sunlight back into the sky.

While the gap between them and the ruins was certainly closing, it still felt like it was a long ways off. Sure it was within in their view but just because they could see it didn't mean they were very close. Daniel wasn't going to complain about the distance though, he was flying to his location and that sure as hell beat walking. He took his eyes of the forward direction that they were facing, and turned them downward looking at the ground move rapidly as they passed by it. Megadramon was so lucky he had wings to fly with, Daniel would get to truly enjoy the feeling of flying about inside the sky. The closest he would ever get was being on Megadramon's back as he flew through the air, which didn't happen very often now that he thinking about it. Since the time of Guilmon gaining the ability to digivolve into Megadramon they had only made use of the form three times, this of course being the third time. This was also the only time where they weren't being forced to fight for their lives either, so I guess that would help to explain why he hardly got fly.
Daniel was thrown away from his thoughts when his partner spoke to him in his now rough and rigid voice. "Dan, I think I see some people up ahead. they're walking. Daniel turned his attention back to the path ahead of them, and also took note of the people walking forward. Though to Dan they looked more like small dots than anything else, he didn't get to have Megadramon's enhanced eyesight. Nonetheless Dan every being the friendly person that he was, motion for Megadramon to lower himself down towards the ground. "Let's go make some new friends." Daniel had a very high level of cheer inside of his voice as he watch the ground get closer and closer.
Once they were close enough to the pair who Daniel could now see were a Tamer and Digimon, the Digimon being a Kotemon he yelled. "Hey! How's the walk going" his voice rang loud in the air, and shortly after it he and Megadramon were flying right next to the duo.

Just as the two were ready to tear out each-other's throats, Dan and Megadramon arrived. Normally, the tamer would have given the other human his favorite finger, but the tamer and his Digimon gave a quick glance at each other before looking at the dragon. "Ruins?" They asked at the same time, both unaware that if they'd continued their walk they'd have run into such grand fortune.
"Hey wait..." Kotemon said, blinking as he looked at Megadramon "How do we know you aren't tricking us?" "Yeah, this is just like that one movie started. Three kids are going through the Australian desert, end up being sliced up by a crazy bushman serial killer... but let's be blunt Kotemon, our compass is broken and he would have killed us by now if he wanted too. It's either gamble him being a serial killer or die alone and afraid in the desert. Neither are good options, but I'm going with the one with a chance of a fast, painless death." Kotemon rolled its eyes, sighing. "Fine..."
"Hello! We're lost! Can you fit two more on your dragon?" He asked, hoping the answer was "yes and would you like something to drink?"

He was completely and utterly lost. Noah found himself in this new world, which impressed him more and more as seconds passed by. At first it all had started with that strange egg, but then it had turned into his partner Fleur. The little seed was resting in his arms, her eyes wide open looking at the strange surroundings that- as a newborn – she hardly knew about. In the small time they had spent together she had Digivolved once and had explained some things she knew about Digimon to Noah but, again, being just a toddler meant she didn’t know much by experience.
Ruins, ruins and more ruins was all that plagued the area. He felt like he was walking on top of a history class book full of illustrations. He was thirsty and by the looks of it his partner was too. She, however was not hungry because as a plant she seemingly could just use photosynthesis. How weird was that?! Not as weird as what would come next: a gigantic dragon thing flying ahead of them. Neat, but scary as hell, and he would have run away until he saw…humans.
“What the…” He said and then started to try and convince himself it was all his imagination, but things got even weirder when he saw the thing coming to a stop some meters before him. That was not normal was it? The boy simply walked to the place which was not that far as said before.
“Ermm Hello…My name is Noah, just came here a few days ago… Do you guys happen to know where are we located…and how to get out of here? Yeah?” he said extending his hand to wave a hello.

Daniel titled his head ever so slightly to the right when they accused him of trying to trick them, or at least the Kotemon had anyway. The Tamer on the other hand seem to understand that if Daniel wanted to attack them he had have done it already, in fact he probably would have done it while they were still in the sky. Though Daniel attacking them was the least of their problems, he wasn't a violent person and tried to avoid fighting at all costs. As much as he tried to avoid it however it always seem to find him anyway, like that they were attacked by a Chaosdukemon and Guilmon almost lost his life. He actually had quite a few memories of situations like that, and while they had helped define him into the person he was today...he didn't like to think back on them. Daniel removed himself from his own thoughts to listen to the two in front of him bicker for a few, before finally looking towards him and asking if Megadramon could fit two more on his back. Daniel laughed lightly at the duo before shaking his head no, "Sorry but Megadramon here only fits one, maybe two if we're pushing it. Though...the two of you do look thirst soo." Daniel jumped down from Megadramon's back.
His body hit against the ground with a soft thud and he reached inside of his backpack. He pulled out a single bottle of water and tossed it towards the two of them, "There you go! I packed up on water before heading out so I've got plenty to go around." he said with a smile. He was about to introduce himself to the duo when the sound of another voice entered into his youthful little ears and turned his attention towards it. The person that approached them appeared to be very new to things. The Digimon within his grasp was still in its In-Training form which likely meant it had just recently hatched.
A wide smile crossed Daniel's face and he gave a small bow towards the one named Noah, "I can tell you're new to all of this, names Daniel. Right now we're in the Folder Desert, the only way back to the human world is in the Digital Core." a small frown crossed his face, "That's a long way from here." he tapped his foot against the ground, which made no sound at all thanks to the sand. He could help him get back there but then what was he going to about exploring inside of the ruins? Sometimes it was a bit of a pain being the good guy, "Why don't you come with me and explore the ruins with me? I'll take you to the Digital Core afterwards? We'll get there a lot faster on Megadramon's back." there we go that seemed like the perfect solution to his problem. Made by Dizzy of Gangam Style |

The tamer and the tamed (who was who is a debate for a later time) both jumped for the bottle, they both hitting each other and having to fight for the water inside. This time, Kotemon succeeded with a strike to the back of the human's head with the wooden sword. Sticking out its tongue and pocketing the water, it tried to drag its tamer back to his feet. "If you keep trying to fight you're gonna end up with a concussion." Kotemon boasted.
"If you keep fighting like that you'll find yourself out on the streets..." He moaned, rubbing his head and turning to look at the other two humans. "...I think you hit me too hard, buddy. Now it looks like there's two humans..." "Want me to hit you again until one of them leave?" "I don't think that's necessary..." He approached the two, Kotemon by his side. "Hey, I'm Duffer, this is my partner, Kotemon." Kotemon rolled its eyes. "I'm Kotemon, this is my student Duffer. He has a lot of work to go through... You just arrived in time to see him fail his 10 mile walk." "You dragged me out of school to do the same thing I would have done, BUT IN A DESERT!" "You let me drag you out of school." "Because you told me we would be visiting the city made of food!" "And you were gullible enough to believe it. A city made of food would also be filled with overweight and gluttonous digimon, and those attract carnivores who would eat us both in one bite. You've also failed basic logic..." "BASIC!?"

Noah’s eyes widened slightly at the sound of the blond males’ voice. He was talking about exploring the ruins together. The pink haired boy’s face sported a light blush which he quickly tried to hide by looking down a bit. He didn’t want the other two males and the two Digimon to notice anything. His partner, Fleur, who was still in his arms looked curiously at them both while wondering what was happening.
“U-Umm sure, I just wanted to know if there was a way out the same way I entered. N-No rush to get there quick. I have a lot to explore here” He said and then looked over at the other two ever-fighting pair while rolling his eyes, he knew about fighting a lot, he had a younger sibling any way .
““Guys, wait…” he said while he took his backpack off and opening it to take out three water bottles. He had filled the bags with water bottles after all. One for him, one for the pair of fighting buddies and he was about to give both to the fighting partners but then faced the blond kid.
“Do you have enough for yourself or do you need more?” he said smiling. It was great to find other people in the strange foreign world. He also wondered why he hadn’t drank some water before, he was quite thirsty!

Daniel and Megadramon both looked at one another and gave the same slightly irritated look. The pair of Kotemon and human began to fight over who was going to get the bottle of water, and quite frankly Daniel didn't see why. They could both clearly just share the water, but it didn't seem like that was going to be something they were capable of. Instead Daniel only gave a sigh and placed his hands inside of his pockets. He wondered if him and Guilmon were like that at some point and time, always fighting with one another trying to get something the other person hd. If they had been Daniel didn't exactly remember it. As far as he could remember he and Guilmon got along perfectly fine...probably because he really needed a friend. Despite how it annoyed him slightly, he couldn't help but laugh as the two argued apparently they had ended up here because of a city filled with food. That had at least been the lie told by the Kotemon to get his Tamer out of school and into the Digital World for...some training? He assumed it was training why else would the Tamer be dressed in what looked to be gym clothes?
"You guys fight like an old couple, it's really not good for your health...or your partnership." here Daniel went about to throw down some cold, hard, and logical Digimon tips. "What would you guys have done if I had been here to attack you? You certainly weren't going to fight me off arguing with one another." it was the truth. If Daniel and Megadramon had been enemies they'd have been dead because they were too busy fighting over something like water "Perhaps the kind of training you two need to do is on how to better get along huh?" he was certainly being a little smug today.
Megadramon cracked his to the side and continued to float behind Dan ever the quite guardian, it wasn't a roll that he normally took but he didn't really have much to add. He was a little worried though. If they ran into trouble he got the feeling he was the only with a skills capable of keeping the group of three safe, at least from threats of his level anyway. The Kotemon might be able to help fight off a Rookie that much Megadramon was sure of, but he didn't see the In-Training being of much use. Speaking of the tiny planet Digimon he Tamer didn't appear to be very...confident. The way he talked, almost as if he stuttering before every words escaped from his mouth.
Daniel clapped his hands together when he heard the pink haired man agree to join him in his exploring the ruins up ahead. "Awesome!" he darted eyes towards the fighting pair, "I assume you'll be joining me as well?" he didn't wait for an answer before moving towards Noah. He bent down so his face was in front of the Tanemon within Noah's grasp, a wide smile spread across his face. "Aren't you adorable, if I know my Digimon like I think I do you'd be a...Tanemon right? Do me a favor and keep your partner safe? I hear the ruins can be pretty dangerous and I don't think Megadramon can protect everyone all the time." his smile stayed on his face as he pulled himself back, in time to hear Noah's question about water.

The two blinked, looking at one another at his question. After a long, hard silence, Kotemon finally spoke up. "Obviously, I would..." He paused again. "We'd run?" Duffer said, thinking. "I don't think running has ever helped us before..." "Would you rather just die?" "Facing an honorable death is nothing to laugh at..." "...Well, lemme think..." Kotemon sighed. "I see your point... but I assure you, my student and I can work around troubles when we are placed on the spot. This... human..." he began, unable to think of anything more flattering to the tamer than that. "Is a well of untapped knowledge. He looks like a fool, speaks and acts like a fool, but if he WERE a fool, neither of us would have lasted to this point. I just need to work on things he has neglected." "And Kotemon's a great guy! ...Girl! ...What are you again?" "I said I wouldn't tell you. You'd have to find out yourself." "...Whatever, talk about this later. He... she... it may bug me, and annoy me, but Kotemon's trying to make me better! If I can get it to learn to relax instead of pressuring me to-" "Silence, he's on about the ruins again..." "Ruins? ...Ancient ruins? You mean with gold and silver and stuff?" "I believe so..." "I say we don't go there." "You're being cowardly again..." "I'm using what I know about the world to my benefit. It's my educated guess that if we go to those ruins we'll end up cursed or hunted down by a horrible undead monster." "Your educated guess is right out of your comic books..." "How would you know, you can't read." "You read aloud, but I say we go. It will be a chance for you to learn more about the Digital World's history." The tamer sighed. "Fine... but if something goes wrong I will NEVER let this go." "You'll forget it by the end of the month... We accept your offer to explore ruins." He approached Noah and looked him over, nodding. "Another young mind to sculpt and mold hm? Well, this one appears to be better at keeping himself clean, unlike some humans I know..."

“Did you two meet a long time ago?” Noah asked the blond kid and the big dinosaur-dragon creature, eyeing the fighting pair beside them for a second. Well this all seemed like a great exploration group, maybe time could get them to work together and explore the ruins successfully with no problem, yeah.
“Oh…Kotemon might be gender neutral? …” Noah said, not really that load, only enough for the targeted Digimon to hear, but the rest might have heard also. Fleur nodded shyly at the Tamer who told her to keep Noah safe. It was her duty after all, but right now there was no much she could do against a real opponent.
“I-I will try…”the little baby said nodding at the blond kid. She knew she had to Digivolve quickly so she could be big like the Kotemon or even bigger like the Megadramon hovering in-front of her. She just hoped she could turn into something powerful later on.
“Ermm…Thanks Kotemon?” Noah said a bit confused, but added a little small smile and a little nod to the creature. The Digimon seemed nice, even when they had this weird teacher-student relationship with the human tamer.
