#01- Arrival [Video, Action in Hospitown]

[ba_boom]

[The D-Terminal is showing a new face today, and it doesn't look happy. This little Impmon has been lost for a while now.]

Okay, I think I got this thing working. So what's the deal here? One minute we saved the Digital World, the next minute it's all gone to heck and there's a new big bad Digimon destroying everything? What's the deal here? I can't find my friends! I can't even find my partners!

How long was I out for, anyway!?

[He inhales. Sighs. You're gonna be nice, Impmon. You're gonna be friendly and polite. Even though you're mad. You're gonna be nice.

When he talks again, his voice sounds significantly more calm, though still distinctly unhappy.]

Okay, sorry. Sometimes I lose my head. Uh, Guilmon, Renamon, Ai, Mako... heck, I'd even settle for seeing the cream-puff again at this point. If you're out there, let me know.

[His voice immediately takes a hard edge to it again.]

Not that I'm afraid or anything! I just don't want any of you tiny-brained numbskulls gettin' into trouble while I'm not around to watch your back!

[The message ends. Impmon will be exploring Hospitown trying to find a familiar face, but he won't object to meeting a new friend who's willing to help him out!

Well. He may object. But he probably won't actually mind.]

[You'll have to excuse Impmon for being a bit quiet right now. It's just that Leomon is imposing as hell.]

"Well, uh... I, I didn't get 'em. Sorry. Last thing I remember before I came here, Henry's dad had sent us back to the Digital World because of the program that beat the D-Reaper."

I'm from later, then. [Sounds simple enough; even with how weird this world, the rules, how things work-- all of it, Juri just goes with it.]

It's okay, what matters is you're here now. [Without his Tamers... Could he digivolve? She worries about him getting hurt.]

Impmon. [Leomon rumbles.]

[Action] SORRY! I was gonna edit the name but got busy. >.<;;;

[ba_boom]

[Later, huh? Well, it still wasn't as weird as having the same Guilmon from two different times. Might as well go with it.

Impmon flinches when Leomon addresses him directly.]

"Y... y-yeah?"

[Action] AW DON'T WORRY HON <3 I didn't want to keep you waiting anyway, it's fine ^^

[lionhearted_destiny]

[A moment of silence. As if he's deliberating. He...]

You tried to protect Juri, in my...absence. Thank you.

Leomon...

[Action]

[ba_boom]

[He's torn between relief and even more guilt. Juri wouldn't have needed him to protect her at all if the person who should have been protecting her hadn't been killed. Heck, she probably wouldn't have been caught by the D-Reaper at all.

He nods awkwardly, swallowing the lump in his throat before speaking quietly.]

"Yeah. It... it seemed like the least I could do..."

[Very slowly, Leomon kneels a little. Maybe that makes him seem less intimidating?]

You used my attack.
