//------------------------------// // Misunderstandings and Proper Introductions // Story: My little Pony: Friendship is Digital (OUTDATED) // by DarklordAxel20 //------------------------------// In The Center of Ponyville As the smoke began to clear, the tension seemed to get even thicker, so thick that poor Fluttershy could barely keep herself from panicking, I...is it over.., " she squeaked,too scared to move out form behind the safety of her friends. Only Twilight responded to her question, " I, I'm not sure... " . Their eyes never left the clearing smoke, Twilight wanted so badly to get her friends away from the scene as much as possible, but didn't want to leave the digimon's sides, she didn't know if they really could handle the monster had it not been beaten. " Hey I think I see something, " Agumon said, he squinted his eyes as best as he could, trying his hardest to see through the slightly thick smoke. The smoke soon began to give away, the sound of coughs could be heard from within, soon followed by the image of the big red dinosaur digimon, sitting up, and rubbing his head. " What?! There's no way he could still be up after everything we gave him! " Gabumon exclaimed. The Tyrannomon began coughing some more, almost as if he were trying to make words out, the coughing continued for a whole minute before he finally spoke. " Owww...My Aching head..," he rubbed the side of his head with his clawed hands, the sight of him in such a perfectly fine condition baffled the digimon, they had given it everything they had, but he wasn't even scratched, but what baffled them even more was the fact that he didn't even seem hostile anymore. He looked at them for a few moments and blinked a few times before getting an extremely surprised look on his face, " Hey wait a digi-second, I can talk again, I can talk!! " He got up quickly and began hopping around, shaking the the ground, and everything on it. " H...hey!! easy big guy!! " Agumon cried out. " Yes please if you would mind, not causing an earthquake, that would be highly appreciated, " pleaded Tentomon. " Wha...what's going on, one second hes trying to fry all of them, now hes giddier than Pinkie Pie at a bake sale, it makes no sense! " Twilight said in a slightly confused, yet frustrated tone. Applejack put her hoof on her friend's shoulder, trying to calm her down, " Calm down sugar cube, whatever happened, just be glad it ended this way, he could still be rampagin like a bull at the rodeo, " the rest of her friends nodded in agreement at her statement. It was Pinkie who spoke up next, " Say I got an idea, Fluttershy, your faaaaaantastic with animals, so it's only natural that you'd be fantastic with digimon!, why not trying asking mister grumpasauraus what was wrong with him, and why he's dancing now, pleasepleasepleaseprettyplease!! " she begged continuously to her shy friend, much to her own dismay. " I...I could try..I don't exactly know what to ask him though...., " She said while still slightly quivering. Gabumon watched as his friend and partner Fluttershy slowly flew towards the celebrating dinosaur digimon, " F..fluttershy stop we don't know if hes still dangerous or not! " he rushed to her side just to make sure she stayed safe. Tyrannomon stopped his parading when he caught glimpse of the yellow pony who was floating in front of his snout, sitting down as quickly as he had gotten up, "Oops, this is embarrassing, " he blushed slightly from the fact that someone had witnessed his not-so-great dancing. " Um, e...excuse me mister um..um ," she stammered, not exactly remembering what the digimon had called him. " Tyrannomon, " Gabumon reminded her. She nodded to him before looking back at the red dinosaur before her, "...Mister Tyrannomon...w...why were you destroying our town a few moments ago..b..but now your celebrating as if n..nothing happened? " she questioned. He sat there for a moment, scratching his chin with one of his claws before replying, " Let's see, " he started, " The last thing I remember was watching a light show in the digital world, I was on a mountain I believe, the next thing I know, I'm in some forest, and before I get a chance to explore, I felt something hit me in the back of my head, and, now I'm here, " . Fluttershy nodded as she took in every word of his story, flying towards the back of his head to get a better look, " All I see back here is what looks like a nasty bug bite,....oh well...as long as you're back to your old self..a..and not destroying ponyville anymore, " again, her friends nodded in agreement. " If..if you want, you can go back to my cottage and stay there until we find out where you came from ". Fluttershy's offer was cut short however by Twilight cutting in, " Fluttershy, as much as that would be the nice thing to do, I think it would be better to take him to the Everfree forest, at least there he won't be bothered by any ponies who might mistake him for a monster, and you can check up on him too, " she stated. Gabumon nodded in agreement to Twilight's propsition, " I agree with her Fluttershy, besides, I think your cottage would be a little cramped with both me, and Tyrannomon ". A small blush came to Fluttershy's face as she thought of what Gabumon was saying, she didn't really think about how she'd fit such a big monster in her little home, " Well...alright then...a..at least let me guide this poor little guy there..alright? " Twilight let out a small sigh before nodding, resulting in a tiny hoof clap from her shy friend. They watched as both Fluttershy and Gabumon led the large dinosaur out of town and towards the forest, " That Fluttershy, she could be friendly to the scariest of monsters, " Applejack said. " You can say that again partner, " Gaomon walked towards Applejack, he held a proud look upon his face for successfully defending his new best friend. " I know I already said this before, but ya can call me Gaomon, if yer lookin for a mon who can tussle, then ya picked the right partner, partner, " he held up one of his fist while wearing a proud grin. " Hahah, well then, Gaomon, it's nice to officially meet ya, " Applejack replied while placing her hoof on her canine friend's shoulder. Tentomon flew towards Twilight, landing in front of her and looking her in the eyes, " Greetings Twilight, allow me to officially introduce myself now that this is over, my name is Tentomon, I'll be glad to help you in any form or way no matter how demeaning it is, " he spoke in a very intellectual tone, moving his claws about as he spoke. Twilight gave a small smile as she looked at her new insect friend, " Well Tentomon, it's a pleasure to meet you, I hope we can be friends for a long time, you were very brave just then ". " Oh it was nothing, now please refrain form speaking in that tender tone, you're making me blush, and I don't even have cheeks, " Twilight giggled as he waved his arms frantically. Veemon and Rainbow Dash eyed each other over several times before looking each other in the eye and smiling, but Veemon was the first to speak out of the two of them, " I was Pretty awesome there wasn't I, I'm Veemon, the most awesome digimon around, " he went to puff out his chest and flex, only to fall backwards onto his tail. Rainbow Dash let out a small chuckle before helping him up, " Yeah that was pretty sweet, especially how you used your head to nail him right in the stomach and knock the wind out of him, " she pattered her light blue buddy on the head while they both grinned. Rarity blinked a few times as she looked at Agumon, who himself, wore a goofy smile on his face, " A..are you really little Koromon...? " she skeptically questioned. " Yep, sure am! " Augmon replied gleefully, " But in this form you can call me Agumon, cause that's my name, and it's nice to finally meet my best friend as myself! " he was almost as cherrful as Pinkie Pie usually is, just, without the erratic movements. " I'm, your best? but you've only known me since you hatched, which to be honest wasn't that long ago , does it have something to do with you saying we were destined to meet? " Rarity pondered out loud. " Mhm, that's exactly why I digivolved again, I knew that big bully would try and hurt you the second he saw you, so using whatever energy I could muster, I digivolved into me! " his gleeful tone was enough to make Rarity smile and laugh a little, in a way, he reminded her of sweetie belle and how she gets excited. " Well then Agumon, " she started with a smile on her face, " I would be honored to call you my best friend, " she pulled her new yellow friend into a big hug, practically squeezing him. Agumon rubbed the back of his head while blushing slightly, " Aww shucks Rarity, you're making me blush over here ". Both Pinkie Pie and Lopmon bounced in place as they stared at each other, both as excited as the other, both exhibiting big grins while bouncing, " You are so cute!!! " Pinkie practically shouted. " I know so are you!!!! We're gonna be the best best best best bestest friend in the whole wide world forever!!!!!!! " he shouted, his bouncing became sporadic and rapid. Pinkie joined him in the sporadic jumping but stopped in her tracks, stopping lopmon with her, " You need to make me a Pinkie promise on that, can ya do that bestest buddy, " lopmon nodded quickly, " Cross your heart and hope to fly? " he nodded even faster, " Stick a cupcake in your eye? " he began bouncing in place again while nodding. Pinkie's grin grew twice as big as she picked him up in her hooves and began bouncing around everypony, " THEN WE'RE GONNA BE THE BEST BEST BEST BESTEST FRIENDS IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD FOREVER, JUST LIKE YOU SAID!!!!!! " she screamed joyfully, practically rocketing into the air. Off on the Other Side of Ponyville Fluttershy and Gabumon were making their way back to the others after having taken Tyrannomon to the Everfree forest where he oculd relax without scaring ponies. Fluttershy looked at her new horned canine friend, smiling as she watched him tend to his "singed" fur, " You um..you know..uh..Gabumon, your fur is just fine the way it is, it's not damaged or anything.., " she said in a timid tone. " Oh, " he started, " Oh, I um, I know that, it's just that I like taking care of my coat, it's alot better than letting it get all dirty, you must feel that way about your fur, don't you Fluttershy? " he questioned. She looked at him, and then back at herself, before responding, " ...Well, I guess I do...it's just..I'd rather not let it bother me that much..you know, you're a lot more talkative than you were as tsunomon, " she stated, rather boldly. " I'm more talkative, is...is that a bad thing? If it is I can change it, you won't hear a peep out of me, " he childishly pretended to zip his lips. " Oh no not at all! " she exclaimed quickly, " it's just, I didn't expect you to go from a baby to a talking bipedal dog in a single day, it's...well...shocking ". Gabumon looked at her for a few second, trying his best not to trip on any stones that were along the pathway, " If you'd like Fluttershy, I could de-digivolve back into tsunomon if it made you more comfortable, " he offered. Fluttershy looked slightly shocked at his proposition, he could change back to the little horned furball that he was before, " You..you don't have to do that Gabumon...just having you as my friend is enough for me, you don't have to change at all if you don't want to....OK? " she gave him a soft smile, reassuring him of her words. Gabumon gave a big smile of his own and nodded, " Alright Fluttershy, as long as you're happy, I'm happy! " he cheered, only to be interrupted by the sound of his stomach rumbling, causing the canine digimon to blush out of embarrassment. Fluttershy giggled in response to his stomachs sudden outburst, " Come on now, let's go back to my cottage..you can get something to eat there, " he gave a big nod, and with that, they went off to her little cottage. In Another Part of the Everfree Forest, Not too far from Ponyville A group of ponies fled from something large and full of rage near the outskirts of the forest, all they could hear was its rapidly buzzing wings and the sound of it letting out a low intimidating growl from it's deadly maw. They had finally managed to exit the forest, hoping to make it out in one piece, and one piece they did make it out, but not before witnessing as it's crimson jaws sliced through the thick brush that made up the edge of the Everfree forest. They quickly fled, spreading out to lose it's attention, however it seemed to lose interest in them before they had, instead it was more focused on the town itself, it let out a mighty cry before taking off out of the forest, and for the large building in the center of town.
