Aj walked through the darkness of the night and looked at the moon as it came into view over the forest as they arrived at the beach.Aj had not been to this place in awhile and was sort of happy to be in his place of calm.He sat down and looked at the waves as they washed up to shore and made the sands glitter in the light of the moon.

Labramon and Piyomon seemed to be laughing about something as they appeared behind him and sat down as well.Labramon looked at Aj with a smile on his face and Piyomon looked at the moon and the water."Wow,its amazing isn't it?",Piyomon said with a tone of enjoyment in her voice.Labramon noded as he looked at it as well,"Yea,Aj why do you think there is no one here?",he asked as he looked around.

Aj looked at the digimon from under his hood as he took the hood off,due to the fact that there was no sunlight at the moment."Probably because its the middle of the night..I don't know,and I don't care..it just makes this place even more perfect for my thoughts..",he said as he looked away from the digimon back towards the water as he tried to remember that girl,the one named Cleo..who was she,and how did she know his name?

Piyomon looked at Aj and could tell he had something on his mind."Are you ok Aj?",she asked with a concerned expression on her face as she looked at her tamer.Aj snapped out of his memory and looked at the bird,"Im fine,just thinking.."

Meanwhile a Terriermon and a Lopmon merrily skipped across the shore. Lopmon's right ear and Terrier's left ear were wrapped around each other as they skipped along. They suddenly stopped as they spotted the tamer and two Digimon. The cheery Lopmon and Terriermon couldn't resist the chance of making a new friend. So they approached.

As they neared the trio they yelled, "Hello!"

Labramon smiled as he saw the two bunny digimon headed towards them and he waved."Hey there!",he shouted as he looked at them.Piyomon did the same thing as she saw them.Aj was the only one not noticing them,he was too busy in his thoughts,something was coming back to him,but he could not remeber what it was?

"Nice to meet you," Lopmon said happily. He bowed politely with a smile.

"May I ask why you came to the beach?" Terriermon asked.

"Not that we don't greatly enjoy visitors," Lopmon said. "But if you're looking for anything we'll be glad to show it to you," Lopmon said.

"Or you can come over to our house and have some hot coco!" Terriermon suggest.

"Yum," Lopmon licked his lips.

Labramon smiled as he heard this offer and licked his lips as well."Hot coco,that would be great..what do you say Aj?",said the digimon as he looked at his tamer with a face full of joy.Piyomon looked at Aj was well,hopeing that maybe this would be just the thing to get her tamer moving again.

Aj had finally snapped out of his thoughts and looked at the group of digimon and sighed."If you wish to go,go ahead,I need some time alone anyway..",he said as he got up and lifted his hood over his head as he began to walk down the beach to the shore and look up at he moon,with his eyes gleaming in its light..

Labramon sighed as he looked at Piyomon,"Maybe I should stay with him and see if hes ok,you can go get some Coco,with them?"Piyomon looked at Labramon and shook her head,"No,you go..Im not all that thristy anyway..I talk to Aj,you guys go,just bring me back a cup..",she said with a smile as she walked over to her tamer..

Terriermon frowned. "Is he okay?" She asked with a worried expression on her face.

"Our house isn't far, only a two minute walk. We can bring him back some of our famous hot coco, nobody can stay sad while drinking it," Lopmon leaped a foot in the air, cheerfully.

"Great idea!" Terriermon said happily. "It's this way, come on!" Terriermon said, turning and running off. "You can see it from here, it's the big tree on the shoreline," Terriermon pointed.

Labramon noded as he began to follow the digimon,leaving Aj in the care of Piyomon for that moment.

The pink bird ran to her tamers side and looked up at him,"Hey are you feeling ok?",she asked as she looked at him.Aj did not look at the bird as he continued to look at the moon."Im fine ok,I just need to think about something for a moment,why aren't you going with those guys to get coco,or whatever?",he asked the bird as he continued looking at the full moon.

Piyomon shook her head as she looked at him and then at the moon as well,"Its ok,Im not all that thristy anyway,but Im worried about you,you seem off..",she said as she turned to look at him again.Aj now looked at her with his eyes aglow,"If you must know,Im trying to remeber who I am,or was,I don't know...so many know my name,but I can't remeber their faces,its as if they are only phatoms in my mind,shadows and voices are the only things about them,that I recall..nothing more.."he said with a serious tone of voice towards her as he returned to looking at the moon.

"I was hopeing to be able to remember this one girl who knew me,but I could not tell who she was.."Aj said in a calm tone of voice as he looked on into the sky

"Here we are!" Terriermon said, pointing to the tree. The tree had a large, thick stump and was about eight feet tall, which was the perfect hight for a two storied house for the two Digimon.

Lopmon opened the door for Terriermon and she walked inside. She ran to the kitchen and began to heat some water. Lopmon still stood at the door, politely holding it open for Labramon.

Labramon lowered his head as he entered the house and was amazed at how roomy it was."Wow,this place is great..",he said as he looked at the two bunnies with a smile on his face.


Meanwhile back on the shore,Piyomon continued to get Aj to open up."You lost your memory,thats terrible,what happened?",she asked with a concerned expression.Aj did not look at her as she asked him this,"I don't know,nor do I care,they must of not been that important if I so easily forgot them,so I lay it rest here..",he said as he continued to look at the sky.But as he did he continued to hear the laugh of a little girl,the laugh was so familar..he could almost see its owner in his memory..

"Thank you." Lopmon smiled. The house was quite big considering it was inside of a tree. The living room was furnished with a couch and a rocking chair and a table was near the right wall. The floor was dirt with a carpet on most parts of it. The kitchen was a simple doorway away from the living room and those were the only two rooms downstairs. Upstairs were probably Terriermon's and Lopmon's rooms.

The house was pleasantly warm due to the thick, wooden walls. The room was lightened by a few candles that lay on the table.

"The water's almost hot enough," Terriermon stated. "Then we can add the coco," She smiled. She opened a cupboard and grabbed a jar that contained a brown powder, which was obviously the coco.

"Our coco is made from a mixture of secret ingredients," Lopmon said.

Labramon licked his lips as he waited for them to finish the coco,that was to be the best he had ever had.

(sorry for the short post)

Terriermon added the coco to the hot water and made five cups. The coco gave the house a pleasant smell and Lopmon took a big whiff. "Smells good, doesn't it?" Lopmon grinned. Terriermon approached the table with three cups of coco. She sat one in front of Labramon then another in front of Lopmon.

"We can bring your friends some once we're done," Terriermon said. The hot coco was dark brown with a thick layer of creamy foam on top. Lopmon took a sip let out a loud sigh with content.

"Tastes great," Lopmon commented to Terriermon. Terriermon smiled and nodded.

"What do you think?" Terriermon asked Labramon. "It's a secret recipe that we don't share, so you'll just have to enjoy it while your here," She giggled.

Labramon slowly drank the hot coco and smiled as he felt that he was being carmed into a chocatle rocket and shot into a choclate covered moon."This is the best coco ever,we got to get this stuff to Aj,maybe this will snap him out of it!"

(Sorry for another short post and the over dramatization on the taste of the coco)

((lol, no problem ^^))

"You two go ahead, I'll finish mine in here," Lopmon said, taking a large swallow of the hot coco.

"Let's go," Terriermon smiled. She grabbed the other two cups and ran out of the house and toward the place she last saw Aj and Piyomon.

((Heh, sorry for the short post ^^;))

Labramon followed after the digimon in hopes that this would perk up Aj's spirits,it had to for his sake.Aj had been in such a depression lately that he would be willing to fight anything that looked at him the wrong way,which would explain all the trouble that they had gotten into lately.Maybe after this,he would feel alot better.

By the shore line Aj continued to let himself be lost in his uncomplete memory.He had nothing to go by,only the words of a child named Seri-,his memory was getting worse.He could even remember the girls name,was he going mad,what else would he forget?He could hear voices that he knew,but their faces were covered in darkness,his history was lost to the darkness..he had nothing,he was nothing..

Aj's eyes opened as he looked down at the pink bird that was by his side and then back at the water's edge.He would go with what he knew was true,he had to find the one called Insomia,she was the only name that came into his mind when he thought of darkness,could she be connected to all of this,his past,his so called friends,everything?He would find this person and demand them to return what belonged to him,his memory..his lost dreams..they had become like digital data in a digimons soul as they were deleted,scattered...

"There you are!" Terriermon said as she approached Piyomon and Aj. "We uh, brought you some hot coco," She held them out toward Piyomon and Aj. "Finest in the Digital world," She smiled. The hot coco had began to burn the hands that held them, but she tried to ignore it. On the run over she had spilled a bit of the hot liquid on herself, but she found it harder to ignore that.

Aj looked at the digimon that offered him the cup and noded slightly as he took it gently from the digimon and drank it slowly.He then was slient as he stood there in thought.Piyomon looked at her tamer with a blank expression,so did Labramon as he looked at the two bunnies with a confused expression on his face.

Aj was no longer on the shore of the beach but somewhere else.He looked around the area and saw that he was alone,the background around him was white as he looked around quickly and scaned the area.Then he saw something black walk towards him,it was a smile girl,she grinned at him playfully as she continued to walk towards him.He stood there in confuse as he watched her come closer,but then he saw something that scared him beyond death.Her eyes changed to blood red as she charged towards him as if to attack..it was then when he returned to the beach,looking around in confusion on what had just accured

Terriermon frowned. Even her famous hot coco didn't seem to cheer him up! She hated to see anyone so sad, even a complete stranger. If hot coco didn't cheer him up, what would? Well, instead of trying to figure it out she decided to ask.

"Is their anything you need? Do you need help with something? Maybe you need some rest? You're welcome to stay at our house," She said, her mouth was slightly opened even after she stopped talking, and her eyes were full of worry.

Aj looked at the digimon and shook his head,"Thanks for the offer,but I think we'll pass..I have things I need to find out,and it seems I won't find them out by staying here..but thank you for your kindness..",he said calmly as he was about th hand her the empty cup,when he noticed the slight burns on her hands.He then lowered himself to her level and pulled out some bandages and began to wrap it around her burned hands.."You on the other hand might want to be more careful..",he said with a serious tone of voice as he did this.

Terriermon shrugged. "I guess the hot coco was hotter than I thought," She smiled, embarrassed. "So, you don't need anything? Are you sure? It's really great to see the sunrise in the morning if you would stay! Oh! Swimming always makes me feel good. Not tonight though, it's all cold," Terriermon shivered.

"But if you stayed the night we could go swimming in the morning," Terriermon's eyes opened wide. How come someone say no to though big, sad eyes?

Aj looked at those eyes and tried his best to shake them off with his glowing yellow eyes,but they did not seem to work."Arg..fine,but only because of the fact its too cold to sleep outside,but as soon as morning hits we're leaving got it?",he said as he looked at his two partners and the digimon bunnies in front of him.

"Aw but can't we just HMp",Labramon's mouth was covered over by Piyomon wing."I think its best not to push our luck Labramon..",she said with a serious tone of voice

Terriermon smiled widely. "Yay!" she said happily. "Let's get going to the house, it's really near and stuff," She spun around and pointed to the tree. "Right there!" She said, right before darted off. She jumped into the air a few feet then spread out her eyes, then slowly glided to the ground, as she reached it she repeated the process, all the way to the tree. She didn't even bother looking back to see if the company was keeping up with her excited pace.

((Sorry it's been taking me a while to reply lately. I'll try to keep up better though ^^;))

Aj frowned as he followed behind the floating digimon,with Labramon running beside him and Piyomon flying over head of them both.Aj wondered why the heck he agreed to this,he did not have time for these fun and games as Labramon called them.But he had said he would and he always kept his word..or at least..he thought he did

(Its ok)

Here we are! Terriermon said as she landed softly on the ground. She turned to Aj, "You may want to bend down or something, otherwise you'll hit your head on the roof," She smiled and shrugged. "I'll go get your beds set up, in the meantime you can just relax and stuff, take a seat if you like," Terriermon said as she opened the door.

Lopmon sat inside, it seemed he had finally finished his hot coco. "Good to see you!" He said happily as he saw Aj outside the door. "Couldn't say no to Terriermon, could you? I have that problem all the time," He chuckled.

Aj bend down and saw the Lopmon and sat down as he looked at the digimon."Pretty much..but we won't be here for too long,just for the night..",he said with a serious expression as he looked at the digimon

Labramon and Piyomon then entered the house as well and Piyomon smiled as she saw the inside of the home."Wow..its amazing..",she said in awe

Lopmon smiled. "I hope you enjoy you're stay," He leaned back in his chair, then shifted his weight to the side, getting more comfortable. "And thank you very much, me and Terriermon work hard to keep this house, err tree, looking its best," He said happily.

Only seconds later Terriermon came rushing down the stairs. "Okay! I've got all your beds set up, Lopmon can sleep on the couch and I'll sleep on the floor," She smiled. "Labramon and Piyomon can sleep in my room and you can sleep in Lopmon's room," Terriermon said to Aj.

"The rooms aren't that big, just a bed a dresser and a closet. The bed should be big enough for you to sleep on without hanging off, Lopmon's bed is pretty big. I've made a bed on the floor in my room, so either Piyomon or Labramon can sleep on that, the other can sleep on the bed," She smiled widely, proud of all she had done for her guests.

Piyomon noded towards Terriermon with a gentle smile,"Thank you so much,we'll try to be good house guests,right Labramon?",she said as she looked at him.Labramon noded in agreement,"Of course,Im not a pig..",he said as he and Piyomon headed towards their room as they said good-night to their Tamer.

Aj just frowned at them as they left and he continued to sit there in deep thought on what he had saw.

Terriermon rushed into the kitchen, seeing how excited she was about having guests it probably wouldn't be surprising if she was getting breakfast started. Lopmon glanced curiously at Aj. He tilted his head, flapping his right ear over his head.

"You look troubled, do you need anything?" Lopmon asked. His tone sounded more curious than worried.

Aj looked at the Lopmon and shook his head,"No..there isn't anything anyone can do for me,this is something I need to find out on my own,sorry..",he said as he looked down at the ground and frowned as he continued to try and remeber what that image was..

Lopmon wouldn't be quick to excuse the thought of helping the human. "Something you need to find out on your own, huh?" Lopmon straightened. "Nothing anyone can do for you?" Lopmon stretched his arms behind his head and leaned back against them.

"Are you sure about that? You know, nothing can be done alone," Lopmon said. He wanted to help Aj, and actually believed he might be able to.

Aj looked at the digimon and frowned as he cupped both his hands in front of him as he leaned forwards."Not unless you know how to bring ones past back to them,thats what Im searching for..my life,before all this..but I can't remember anything..nothing..",he said with a serious tone of voice as he looked at the ground below him.

"You lost your memory?" Lopmon paused. "Did you hit your head or something?" He asked with a curious tone of voice.

Aj frowned as he looked at the digimon,"Look,I don't know ok,I can't remember..",he said with a serious tone of voice as he looked at him..He then sighed as he breathed into his hands,"I just want to know who I am.."

"Well that makes sense. Of course if you loose your memory you won't remember how you did it," Lopmon scratched his head. "When people loose their memory sometimes it comes back to them when they encounter something that triggers an old memory. Well, I think anyway," Lopmon showed an undecided smile.

"Maybe you could go searching for something that will trigger your memory," Lopmon shrugged.

Aj frowned as he looked at the digimon,"That...is easier said then done,I can't remeber anything,so I can I look for something that could trigger a memory if I have no clue of where to look..."He was then silent as he thought,"Maybe there is something...when I saw that girl,something in my mind...it remebered her voice...",he said as he looked at his hands as he spoke his thoughts outloud..

"Then go look for her!" Lopmon shouted, waving his hands in the air. "Honestly," Lopmon spat the word in a humorous manner. "Who knows, maybe finding whoever you're talking about will get you your memory back."

Aj was surpised at the digimon's tone and smirked,"You make it sound like its that easy to find someone in the digital world..."

"Well, I suppose it probably isn't. But 'where there's a will there's a way', so they say," said the Lopmon with a confident grin. But maybe it wasn't confidence, maybe it was just a "I doubt you can do it but I'm willing to hope" kind of smile.

Aj was silent,"Im..off to bed,nite..",he said as he slowly moved towards the room that he was supposed to sleep in for that night,but hes thoughts continued to go through his head..

"Good night," Lopmon said as he watched Aj leave to his room. He turned sideways on his chair and got himself comfortable, ready for a good night's sleep. He closed his eyes and began to fall asleep.

"Breakfast is ready!" Terriermon yelled. The act startled Lopmon and he ended up falling face-first onto the floor.

"It's still night," Lopmon said as well as he could with his face still against the ground.

"I know, I just thought I'd let you know," She then skipped merrily to the couch where she then leaned back and got ready to sleep.
