Amida Forest: Hunted!

"Yeah... I fear what the others in here must be like." Willis uttered. Suddenly he felt heat blazing against his back, and the sound of crisping. Looking behind him,


there was a little cloaked being huddle by a campfire.


"AH!" The three jumped backed.


"The hell you come from?"


"What do you mean?" The being looked up, his eyes blinking from under the hood, "I was always here?"


"Really?" Terriermon raised a brow, "It might have been dark, but I'm sure we would have bumped into you in that fight."


"Things in the digital world tend to surprise one." The figure said, looking back at the flames. "Especially in dungeons... things can be really wild down here."

With a metal spear, he rearrange the firewood within the flames. "Oh, just a little traveller."


"Hanging out in an underground dungeon?"


"Strange place to hang out."


"Oh? Then why would many digimon tend to thrive down here?"


"Cause they're too ugly to be out in the daylight?"


The being chuckled, "Maybe its you who are too ugly for them and they hide down here?"


"HEY!"

"Well that depends." Turn to the figure, "You know where I can find my crest?"


The cloaked was silent for a moment.


"... Well, if you don't know, just say something ya Jac-"


"Only one digimon will be able to digivolve, you know that, right?"


"Uuuhhh..."


"You're unique from other Digidestined, besides being American. You have two digimon. But keep in mind that only one digimon can use the crest's power."

He turns to the duo, "I believe you two have been called, 'Tamer', correct?"


"That's what the horse-man has called him."


"From what you have heard so far, can you tell the difference between the two?"


"Well, there's the digivice and crest." Willis said, scratching the back of his head.

"Another name for the Digidestined are the chosen children, chosen by the gods of the digital world themselves. They and a group of scientist were the ones who developed not just the equipment, but also the digimon partners for the Digidestined."


"Wait... you mean we're-"


"Minus you two." Turns to the group, "Unlike the Greymon and Parrotmon that attacked Tokyo, you two weren't pulled back to the digital world. As I was saying; Those digi-gods however were sealed by the evil that threatens this world and the scientist were killed."


The fire flared and showed an image of a boy with a digivice at a computer.


"To rescue the 8th child from an evil Myotismon, he was given a prototype digivice that's not linked to a digimon. We don't have the resources from the gods or scientist to make another digivice to you Hiro, or any of the other potential 'Tamers' that may cross into this world."


"Others?"


Fire flared again, this time showed some boy with a robot digimon and some others on a train.


"Seems other non-Digidestined humans have been entering this world too. Though by rifts caused by the weakened dimension walls.
This boy here seems to be bonding with this digimon. Though as I said, we have no digivice to hand out anymore."

"Besides avoidance of possibly having to give up the power of the crest like the rest of the Digidestined before 02?"

WRAP!


That was a hard smack to the head by this cloaked figure's staff, "Even without the digivice or crest, Jijimon brought you both to the digital world because he believed in the strength of Hiro. How he would be able to raise a digimon without any need of a digivice. You might say its like comparing a normal trainer with those 'D-Sphere' users."


"Uh?"


"It deals with that 'other world'. Too much explaining for the moment."

"You've already collected all those items. Namely the digivolution ones. The Digidestined won't be able to use those, it conflicts against their digivice."
