[b]"I knew I could count on you lot."[/b]  Arukenimon said as she clasped her hands together in a cute manner.  [b]"I can't join you.  Bureaucratic red tape, you understand.  That said, I'll look into help.  I'll contact your Digivices if I got some info for you.  With that, ciao!"[/b]  With that, the Spider walked off towards the Gate.

[color=yellow]"Alright.  Well, shall we go?  We'll just run into Niels right?"[/color]  Yumeko asked herself more than the others.  She looked around to see if Niels would show up any second, but no such luck.  [color=yellow]"I suppose it's time to go then?  The sooner the better."[/color]

[color=tan]"Yep.  If we're going to save Greymon, we're going to have to assault the enemy base.  From what I remember though, it shouldn't be too bad.  It's like a small wooden fort.  Maybe we could find a back way in."[/color]  Tinkermon said as she floated over to Yumeko again and settled on her shoulder again.  [color=tan]"Maybe we could use Candlemon's flames to catch the place on fire. Hehehe."[/color]  Yumeko couldn't tell if it were a joke or her being serious.

[color=yellow]"Well, lets get going."[/color]  With that, Yumeko led the group of town and down the road.  As the moved away from town, the forest grew thicker and thicker.  One noticeable thing though, was the weird bending of trees.  They'd twist and turn and make odd enlongated crescent shapes.  Among those, the leaves also had odd designs that were the same thing over and over and over again.  Nothing especially natural.  [color=yellow]"Once you get out here, you seem to realize that this isn't our world."[/color]

The sound of underbrush rustling and a familiar face or two coming out of the forest may or may not suprise the six travelers.  [b]"That's why it's called the Fractal Forest. I don't think they stay too close to what an actual fractal is, but they tried."[/b]  A boy and a giant mecha lion man.

[color=yellow]"Oh, Niels!  I didn't think you'd just come out from the forest like that."[/color]  Yumeko said, slightly surprised which merely gained a laugh from Niels.

[b]"Me either.  We were chasing Ruuto's monstrosity and lost sight of the thing if you can believe it."[/b]  Niels said as he had his hands on his hips.

Grapleomon held back laughter before continuing for him.  [b]"Yea, I lost sight of him when Niels fell face first after tripping on a tree root."[/b]

[b]"Wanna fight!?"[/b] Niels said with an irritated looking face.

Grapleomon scoffed at him.  [b]"I'm not the same Elecmon I was back in the day that you man-handled!"[/b]

Tinkermon looked fairly unamused.  [color=tan]"Are you two idiots or something? Cause you seem like idiots."[/color]

The two partners pointed at each other and yelled at the same time.  [b]"He's the idiot!!!"[/b]

[color=tan]"Yea sure, I'll believe you."[/color]  The little fairy continued looking off into the forest.
