[There is some slight static before the video starts. Donnie is currently pacing through his room, his hand on his forehead and there was a frustrated expression on his face. Kamemon is sitting nearby, watching his partner pace with a rare worried look.]

Come on Donnie, it's not that big a deal. No one knows what's going on.

Yeah, and that's the problem! I don't understand any of this! Digital Field? Invasion? This Taichi guy missing? I... I just don;t get any of this! [He sits on the bed and groans in frustration] I don;t get what's happening, not at all...

[If there was one thing that Donnie couldn't stand, it was not understanding anything. He wasn't afraid of fighting, he could handle that, and he would do whatever it took to defend innocent people and Digimon. But he didn't understand who or what this enemy was, about what was coming. It frustrated him.]

Look Donnie, I know that your frustrated, but... But like I said, no one knows happening. You can;t stay down in the dumps, only wimps do that. Quit beating yourself up over this, it'll be fine.

I guess... [Sighs[ I really wish my brothers were here... Or Sensei... or April... I need them...

[Kamemon looked to the ground, sadness in his brown eyes. Donnie still wasn't accepting his comfort. He was trying so hard to get the former turtle to accept him, but he guessed that he was just an annoyance to him. The feed shows the two staring at the ground before cutting off.]

>Is there something I can help with?

>I dunno how much of it I understand, but I can try explaining stuff how I see it.

Aw come on dude, I spend most of my life not knowing things and I turned out ok.

That's debatable.

[Though muffled by the wall, she can hear their voices from where she was in her own bedroom. And though the words are unclear, she can easily make out the frustrated tone.

With a slight frown, she slowly slipped off the bed and walked through the hall. She stops in front of Donnie's room, hesitating for a long moment before finally knocking on the door.]

D...D-Donnie...?

[ Since he's not actually in the apartment, Zack can't just run up and help, but he will do what he can over the D-T. ]

Hey, come on, Donnie. Most of us don't know what's up with those Beemon, but we just need to put our heads together, and before you know it we'll have them wishing they stuck to making honey. [ do beemon make honey? DOES ZACK CARE? Not really no. ]

[Ah this is the sort of frustration Luke recognizes very well.]

At this point, it looks like even the seasoned chosen don't know exactly what's going on. So let's not focus on what we don't know and instead focus on what we doknow, and what we can do about it, right?

And. I'm sure everyone has companions back home that they miss. But just remember that you're not alone here either.

Yeah, like you have your partner who's right there!

[Well Luke was aiming for a slightly subtler approach, but that works too.]

I don't think there is much that you can tell me Ed. I don't think anyone can explain what's going on.

Maybe, but...

Yeah, Donnie's not a 'go with the flow' kind of guy. he needs to know and understand everything that's going on or he becomes a broken wreck.

Do not!

[The door opens, but it's not Donnie who answeres. It's Kamemon.]

Oh hi Fluttershy, sorry Donnie is... kind of frustrated right now. This whole thing with the Beemon and Digital Field is confusing him.

...Really? Honey? That was a bad line Zack...

I know what most of us don't understand, but... I hate not understanding anything. There's something going on, something bad, that much I know. How can we stop it if we don't understand it?!

They're right you know. Will you quit trying to figure things out by yourself and just let us help? Your part of a team back in your world, right?

Yeah, but that's with my brothers, people who I understand. i know how they react to things, and they know how I do. It's different here...

Don't say that, you'll only encourage him to think of more.

[ WOW YOU DIGIMON SUCK. But there's other things to worry about besides his cheesy one-liners, ] We're all in the same boat as you, Donnie. None of us really understand it - I know I don't! [ it is frustrating and he hates it, but he can't have a fit about it even if he really really wants to, ] But I do understand that the city needs to be defended and Taichi needs to be found. The only way that's going to happen is if we work together. That includes you.

We're going to figure this out, okay? Just take a deep breath.

[Donnie listens to Zack, his words sounded like something that Leo would be telling him. A small ping of homesickness went through him, but he quickly pushed it aside. Following Zack's advice, he took a deep breath, lettin out the tension within him.]

Okay... Feeling a bit better now...

[A bit.]

I get it. I mean, I don't have any brothers, [unless you count Asch but...nope that's too complicated he's not even going there] but I travelled with the same group of people for a long time and the thought of having to fight without them is...kind of scary, honestly. But if we don't fight, then the city could be destroyed.

[Sighs] Yeah, I know... I know we can't let that happen.

See? Your sounding better already.

Glad to hear it. [ He grins, ] Hey, when I get back, you should show me some of those bo staff moves again.

Again with the stick?!

Well... Yeah, alright. It might helped me get rid of some of this frustration, so that sounds good,

Exactly! If I can find a substitute sword, I'll even practice with you.

He has already considered an umbrella for the time being, just as a forewarning.

An umbrella? Really?</span Well even if you don't, it's cool. I'm more than happy to show you how I use mt bo staff with or without anyone to fight against.

Right. [Smile] And I know there's no replacing your brothers, but before long I bet you'll have a new team of people you can trust around here.

[Circumstances like these have a funny way of bringing people together, after all. Coronamon pops back into view to make another biting comment about his partner already being a teammate, but Luke shoves him away before he can even say anything. Donnie and Kamemon can work that out on their own.]

[ He rubs the back of his neck, still grinning, ] Wouldn't be the first time I had to improvise. You've got to be ready for anything!

[ he nods, ] Awesome. We'll be back in a little bit, okay? I'll keep you updated if we find out anything while we're gone.

Yeah... I hope so...

Well now that we got that out of the way, who the heck are you guy that I've never seen before?

Alright, thanks Zack. I'll see you both when you get back!

No problem! Make sure you keep up those deep breathing exercises while I'm gone! [ salute ] Later.

[sheepish laugh] Oh yeah, guess I forgot that part, didn't I? My name's Luke fon Fabre.

[She nods.] I...figured it'd be about that.

M...M-may I come in?
