"You are coming back with us Agumon!" Blizzarddramon roared over the multiverse dimensional plain.
"Never! Pepper Breath!"
Agumon always led off with his Pepper Breath attack. I really wished he would learn by now that Rookie-Level Digimon can't harm Mega-Levels. Luckily he failed to hit Blizzarddramon at all. Though the attack is ineffective in terms of damage, I would still fell it. "Blizzarddramon we need to get closer to him so I can toss the data containment orb at him."
"On it, Joshua!"
"Almost..."
"So long, suckers!"
A portal quickly appeared. I was worried that Agumon would do damage to the locals. He was kind of a lose cannon. "Blizzarddramon, quick! Into that portal!" And in a flash, we found ourselves in a place we thought we'd never travel to: Canterlot.
***
It started as an ordinary Saturday for Twilight Sparkle and her friends. They decided to enjoy brunch at Sugarcube Corner. As they ate and recounted the events that happened that week they heard a deafening roar. After what felt like an eternity, the Rookie-Level Agumon fell several leagues from any civilization.
"What in the hay was that?" Applejack asked.
"Could it be...?" Twilight started to ask when another roar emanated from the sky.
"Blizzarddramon, are you ok?" I asked concerned.
"I think." Responded Blizzarddramon. "But I don't think I have the strength to maintain this form much longer."
"Then you'd better land. That building right there, there is a clearing large enough for you to land next to it."
"I'll try to..." Blizzarddramon started to say. And in a golden flash of light Blizzarddramon de-digivolved to his Rookie-Level form of Demijoshuamon. As we fell, I thought it would be the end. We both gave each other glances that indicate that we had no regrets and the rest of the team would feel the impact and rush to our side as quickly as possible.
"Demijoshuamon, do you have the strength to shield us from the impact."
"The strength, yes. The courage to pull it off, no. But I'll try. Cryo Shield!"
Thankfully Demijoshuamon deployed his Cryo Shield attack in time. As we landed on the ground the shield gave way a little before utterly shattering, both of us blacking out. After what felt like millennia I awoke to see six individuals I thought only exist in a TV show.
"Where-- Where are we?" I managed to ask despite a throbbing felling in the back of my head. "Demijoshuamon, are you ok?"
"Oh, I think I fractured my tail bone." Demijoshuamon groaned out.
"Are you hurt? Do you need help?" Twilight asked, concern in her voice.
"I'll be ok. Please tend to Demijoshuamon." I motioned to the blue and gold furred rabbit that was my life-partner and friend. "He got it worse than I did. Please."
"Fluttershy, do you know what to do?"
"Yes, of course. I'll make sure he is all better." Fluttershy said.
"Here, let me help you up."
"Thanks. I'm Joshua."
"I'm Twilight Sparkle. That's Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie." Twilight said. "Are you sure you aren't hurt?"
"A little. I'll recover. My armor protected me from the worst of it." I didn't say that I knew who they were, nor did I explain that I took a serious blow to my left shoulder blade. One thing was on my mind though. "Aren't you worried about where I came from? Why I came out of that portal, and where it leads to?"
"Yes, but we are more concerned about your injuries. At least let us help you til you are 100%."
"I have to stay true to my mission. Me and Demijoshuamon were on the trail of a rouge Digimon called Agumon. He possess a rare strand of data that permits him to turn into any of his evolutionary forms at will."
"What are Digimon?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"And what do you mean by 'data'?" Asked Rarity.
"Where are my manners?" I said. "Digimon, short for 'Digital Monsters', are creatures composed entirely of computer data. They are as intelligent as you or I. Some are bonded to humans."
"Like you and Demijoshuamon?" Questioned Pinkie Pie.
"Yes, like me and Demijoshuamon. And some are wild." I responded. "As for the strand of data I said Agumon has. It was originally created by the Sovereign Digimon as a way for Digimon to undergo slide evolution. It was given to most Digimon with gender-neutral evolutions like Agumon. A little time later, Azulongmon realized it was too dangerous. So most of the Digimon with it had it taken away. Later generations of these Digimon also lacked it. A few do still possess this trait. Mostly Digimon like Angemon and Devimon. Those who have slide evolutions. (sigh) Unfortunately, Agumon was overlooked. He soon discovered this trait and became egotistic. That was around the time he apprenticed under me and Demijoshuamon. I just wish he had the patience to learn how to tame it."
"I don't get something," Twilight said. "If Agumon is so dangerous, then why didn't Azulongmon try and stop him?"
This time Demijoshuamon spoke up. "If only it were that simple. He happens to be a direct descendent of the first VictoryGreymon to come into existence. Like my training partner BlackAgumon, and his brother. He can, with enough experience, become VictoryGreymon if he wanted to. I know that this may seem to be an imposition, but can you guys help us?"
They were slow to respond, but Twilight decided to answer. "We'd love to. How can we help?"
"We could use some food." I said. "Oh, and a place to stay until we can contain Agumon. We shall compensate you for your help."
"You can stay with me for as long as you need." Pinkie Pie offered.
"And I can give you some apples to eat." Added Applejack.
"I can help you train if need be." Rainbow Dash said.
"Well alright. Me and Demijoshuamon appreciate your kindness." I said. It would be a good thing to have help from locals, I thought to myself. As soon as we ate and rested a bit we decided to try and search for Agumon.
As if in response to this, he decided to appear.
"So, you finally decided to search for me, huh? Took you long enough." Agumon taunted.
"Agumon! You are coming back with us!" Demijoshuamon declared.
"NEVER! Agumon Digivolve to... Greymon! Surrender!"
"In your dreams! Demijoshuamon Digivolve to... Joshuamon! Greymon, do you yield?"
"Never! Nova Flame! Ha!"
"Is that all?" I asked. I knew the answer, but I asked that question anyway.
