Mission 1: Arrival (Video)

*There's a pair of icy blue eyes on the screen, with a subtle warmth behind them that's at odds with the cold color. They belong to a young but scruffy looking face topped by white hair and bearing an expression somewhere between irritated and unimpressed. From the background, he still seems to be outside.*

Okay, first off, I've got a couple of questions, so why don't we humor the new guy for a while. Let's start off with the big stuff: where can a guy get a slice of pizza, a decent sundae and some booze around here? I just spent all day running around and it feels like I could eat a Gigapede if that wasn't the most disgusting idea I've ever heard.

Which actually brings me to the second question. I spent all day running around without food and was perfectly fine until I came here, aside from some serious cravings for cheese and tomato sauce. You see, I ain't exactly what you would call entirely normal, that's why I'm so good at what I do. So who's shit idea was it to bring me here, ask me to save the world and then add on 'by the way, you can't use any of the awesome and badass powers that usually help you get the job done'?

Actually, you know what, make that three questions. On the topic of saving the world, who's ass to I have to kick this time? Interdimensional gates don't normally screw with themselves when they're supposed to be closed, so I'm pretty sure someone's gotta be on a power trip. Though points for scale. Don't think I've ever heard of someone involving more than just the human world and the demon world in their evil schemes. ...Then again, until now, I didn't know there was anything other than the human world and the demon world. Guess they're right, you do learn something new every day.

Yeah. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say Disney's not an animation company here you're from, huh?

[heartdive]

Can't say it is, no.

[hellspawnedhero]

Remind me to go lookin' for movies later.

[heartdive]

You wanna watch one that badly?

[hellspawnedhero]

It'd be nice, plus, you're missing out.

*Mulan might be up there on his list of favorite animated movies.*

[heartdive]

You can't really miss something like that, Dante. My life is kinda like a movie anyway.

[hellspawnedhero]

So's mine. Still, it's fun to sit back and enjoy a good show.

[heartdive]

If you have the time, maybe.

[hellspawnedhero]

We'll see what happens. This place doesn't exactly seem bustling right now.

[heartdive]

Only because there hasn't been an attack.

[hellspawnedhero]

That kinda thing happen a lot?

[heartdive]

It has been once since I've been here. Maybe the reason nothing happened here lately was because of the castle that appeared.

[hellspawnedhero]

I'm startin' to think I should check this castle out for myself...

[heartdive]

I wouldn't until your digimon can evolve.

[hellspawnedhero]

Oh yeah, keep forgettin' just goin' and kicking monster tail myself ain't an option now.

Don't worry, once I can evolve, I'll be able to fight for you.

[heartdive]

I know it totally sucks.

[hellspawnedhero]

Would prefer to fight for myself. Relyin' on other people to fight for me ain't my style.

[heartdive]

It's not really relying on our partners to fight for us. They can't evolve without us so...

[hellspawnedhero]

Still, I'm used to being in the middle of the action, ya know?

[heartdive]

So am I...

But that's not really how it works here. Putting yourself out there not only hurts you, it hurts them as well. I know that Ryudamon hated it when he thought he couldn't protect me. I hate it that I can't protect him like I should, but if being around so he can evolve gives him the best chances, then I think I'm fine with it.

...Well more than what I was.

[hellspawnedhero]

*Sigh.*

Sittin' on the sidelines is gonna drive me nuts.

[heartdive]

It gets easier?

[hellspawnedhero]

*He can already tell he's going to be bored out of his mind...*

There anything to do for fun around here?
