Mike was sitting in his favorite spot on his tree branch over the lake, relaxing after a stressful day at home. "People work too hard" he concluded, thinking out loud. " people should learn to relax, then maybe they wouldn't push others around"
He wasn't talking about himself but his brother, Nick, and how his parents treat them both.
Just then he heard a wimper, he turned to see a strange creature cowering in the bushes with it's back turned to him. appearently it did't hear him. Mike went to his backpack and took out a loaf of bread he had bought earlier. Because of the wimpering he assumed it wasn't dangerous, and it looked so familiar that he couldn't help but take a look. He slowly aproached the shivering creature, and softly called "Hey there little guy" and when it turned around he said kindly, "Don't worry, I ain't gonna hurt you" As soon as the creature turned around Mike reconized it as mokumon The mokumon allowed Mike to get close enough to take the bread, and started eating quietly.
Mike was surprised that there was a digimon in the real world. It only happened in the TV shows, but he kept his questions to himself. If there is onething he has learned in life is that there is a time and place for everything. Right now was time to take care of a potential friend
"Whacha doin' all by your lonesome little guy?" asked Mike in a casual tone. "I-I'm r-r-running from them." "Who?" "The... the hypno's" Mokumon shivered as he siad it.
Mike had heard of the hypno's. But he never really paid any attention to them. He always guessed that they were some kind therapists. but the way this mokumon said their name Mike now thought they had to be murderers.
"Don't worry" said Mike as he felt a small fire suddenly come to life within him. "I'll protect you" The little mokumon looked up at his knew found protector, comrade, and friend. "You're not afraid?" "Actually, I'm angry at those bullies for scaring and even killing little ones like you." Mokumon shivered, "Don't worry, I gotcha"

She was supposed to be at the zoo, and while it wasn't too far off from the park, Tess strayed away from it and continued along the path. This is stupid, she thought. Stupid and irrational. I should be working, not tracking this signal or whatever.
Before her, Tess held out the Digi-Device, which now sported a swerving compass on its screen. For one thing, she knew it wasn't pointing toward the north pole, but it also seemed that wherever it was taking her, she was getting closer...

Ray was putting away the now empty food containers in his pack as antennemon folded up the blanket. He learned a few things about digimon in his time with antennemon, mainly that they eat a lot. When they had finished that, they kept heading towards the pond, which was thier destination in the first place.
Suddenly though antennemon started acting acting strange. "What's up?" asked Ray "I sense another digimon" "Another one?" It wasn't the fact that there was another digimon that suprised him but the fact that antennemon could sense them. "Get out you digivice, there could be a battle and I might need you help" Antennemon had told him about the digivice and the three cards in it. Follow me," said antennemon, I can't tell what the digimon is yet, but I don't think it's too strong." ********************************************************************** They got to the pond clearing and Ray saw one of his best friends, Mike, next to a smoky little digimon. "Mokumon, no threat" said antennamon. "Of course not, my friend Mike's with him." replied Ray as he went to greet his friend.

When Tess reached the center of the clearing, a small patch near the pond but before the trees started again, the compass suddenly stopped wavering, the arrow disappeared, and it beeped cheerfully.
I guess I'm here, she thought. What happens now? Why is this place so special? She had a kind of gut feeling that Serpent might appear here, though it seemed unlikely. This must have something to do with her, though.
Some voices rang through the trees, rather excited ones. Wondering if they could possibly be the people she was waiting for, but not wanting to draw attention to herself if they weren't, Tess ran to the edge of the clearing, placed herself behind a tree, and heard...

"HOLY MOTHER ******* $$$$! Why the ### is there a giant bug next to you!?!?!?!?!" shouted Mike, not really meaning all of it. He was definatly surprised about how a four foot ant was now standing infront of him.
"I wish you hadn't done that... I was trying to canvince Antennemon here that you where a nice guy." replied Ray camly, he was used to Mike yelling and swearing like that.
"Sorry, but I've never seen..." his voice trailed off for a second as he remembered his manners, or what he has been taught of them. "Alight, Bugger-"
"Antennemon!" said Ray forcefully
"Doncha got a nick name for it?" asked Mike "Strongsoul's got his."
"Strongsoul?" questioned Ray
"Yeah, mokumon here... or was here" said Mike as he looked around.
"We're playing hide and seek!" said Antennemon as she poked her head into some bushes, "don't worry , I'll find him." Antennemon looked behind a tree when suddenly...

Tess listened incredulously. Antennaemon? Mokumon? They both ended in "mon," so did that mean...? No; more code names. That had to be it.
But that didn't explain why this Mike reacted like he did and said something about a "Giant Bug." Tess fought the temptation to look behind the tree and see for herself.
When she finally gave in and turned her head, she found herself staring into two giant bug eyes.
...Giant Bug...
"KEEEEYAA!" Tess shrieked, jumping back in alarm. She turned to run, knowing that her eavesdroppees would see her go past and not caring. All she could think about was getting as far away from that thing as she could. She barely even noticed as she tripped over her own feet in panic, until she was halfway to the ground...

"Whoa!" Said Ray as he caught the panicing girl, "easy, easy! Antennemon, what did you do?" Demanded Ray sternly, he thought Antennemon had meant to scare her. "Nothing! Really! I didn't even toucher, I swear." Explained Antennemon.
Ray got the girl to calm down enough for him to ask, "You alright? Hi, My names Ray, and your source of terror over there," pointing at Antennemon, "She's not going to hurt you, I promise. And over there, Thats Mike, he's much scarier than any sized bug you'll ever see" joked Ray
Even Mike had to laugh, "That's right, but I don't bite.. much" He chuckled, "...sooo.... Who are we talking to?"

"Who...I...bug...What's going on?!" Tess finally demanded, still shaky. How? How could there be a real Digimon? Somehow, though, she felt as though she had discovered an important piece to this whole problem, she just didn't know where to fit it.
After the boys and the bug introduced themselves, Tess got a grip and replied, "I'm Tess. Sorry for eavesdropping, but..." She stopped as she realized how familiar-looking Ray was. "Have we met?" She asked him.

Ray thought for a second, "no.. no I don't think so..." suddenly he had a flashback to the day before, right before he blacked out. "Wait a second! Your the one who tackled me and knocked me down!"
At that Mike burst out laughing, "You got knocked down, and by a girl no less!"
" And the fact that she's a girl matters because..." said Ray threateningly
"IT A GIRL!!! No true guy would ever be knocked down by a girl!" Mike kept laughing even as ray advanced on his friend, intending to throw him into the pond.

Tess glared at Mike's remark, but still tried to focus on the seriousness of the situation. "Well, yeah, that was me, but that's not important." She pulled out the envelope, then hesitated before continuing.
Was it really the right thing to do, carrying out Serpent's request? Who knew what she was up to? At the moment, though, Tess had nothing better to do, no one else to turn to. No way would she figure this out on her own.
Realizing that she had been standing there staring blankly and holding the note, Tess blinked awake and, blushing, handed it to Ray without another word.
Crows in numbers raiding nests, so don't leave yours behind, but still the scarred ones fighting back and hatchling you must find.

Ray took the note and read it. He was silent for a while, thinking hard. "Ugh! I like riddles usually, but this one..." Ray sat down, still staring at the note, "... this one has got me stumped." Ray's eyebrows met, his strong and gentle stare turned into a threatening glare. He wasn't angry, he was just thinking hard.
Mike reconized this and said, "Careful, Ray! If you think too hard you'll hurt yourself like last time."
Ray instantly relaxed and smiled. He turned to his friend, "Aw shut up, you wouldn't do any better."
"you wanna bet?" replied Mike, "If I figure it out, you buy Tess lunch, alone." Mike grinned at his own bet.

Tess became beat red and flustered. "You...that was...how dare...!" She stammered at Mike. She shook her head. Focus.
After taking a deep breath, she finally said, "Just help me figure it out. Now's not the time for joking around."

Ray felt his ears grow warm, but he kept a straight face, he knew Mike liked to make jokes, but if he didn't like the reaction he would stop. Unfortunately, Tess was less expirienced with keeping her cool.
Mike laughed at Tess's reaction. For reasons unknown to himself, Ray became very angry. Mike began to say something else, but Ray cut him off harshly, "Now's not the time for your stupid jokes! Just read the d---- note!" But the instant he lashed out at his friend he regretted it, Ray wasn't the type to attack. "Sorry man, I didn't mean to lash out at you, but I think you should save your jokes for later"

Mike was quiet for a while, then said, "No man, I guess I went too far that time." Then, with a faint smile, "No more playing with others emotions, I promise."
Mike read the note and thought for a long time. "There is no possible way that we are the only ones that know about digimon. Also, based on the show, there are evil digimon, and I think that there are going to be people who want to get rid of digimon," He looked at Mokumon, "I don't think that me and Ray are the only kids who have or are going to get digimon," He looked at Tess, wondering if she got the message.

Tess glared back at Mike for a few moments before saying, "What?"
And then it hit her.
What did she care about Digimon? She had nothing against them, and now that they were real, she couldn't help being fascinated by them. But her? Fighting with a Digimon? Fighting against other Digimon? Fighting against "Crows"?
"No," she said. "No."
