"What's going on?" murmured Greg, yawning as screams filled the background. He turned sleepily to see things moving back and forth in the darkness, like some kind of shadow puppet dance. "Ryuudamon?"

"Greg!" hissed a voice. "Move!"

"Hm?" the half-asleep teenager looked up just in time to jump aside. A wayward fireball exploded just where he'd been seconds ago.

Ryuudamon leapt across the blind battlefield, using his ears as eyes, his sword cutting a path through the enemies. "GREG!" he yelled, "HERE!"

Greg reached out to find something grab his arm. With surprising strength the dragon-monster hoisted his partner away.

"What's going on?" complained Greg, alternating between running and being dragged.

"Don't talk until we're away. They won't figure out we're gone until it's too late," whispered Ryuudamon.

After what could have been 10 minutes or an hour, they finally stopped moving. The sun was coming up, it seemed they had slept most of the night.

"Who were they?" asked Greg.

"Fucking bounty hunters," snarled the boy's partner. "Scum of the Digiworld."

"But, who would want to kill us?" asked the teenager.

Ryuudamon sighed and slapped his forehead. "You're more naive than I gave you credit for," he muttered sarcastically.
