New Friends

Using his super fast speed and agility, Wargreymon X ran as fast as he could towards where he heard three young screams and a roar of hunger from something big. When he reached where the sound originated, he saw three little creatures being cornered by a creature with many different parts of different creatures. The first of the three small creatures had canary yellow fur and long red fur on it's head and tail. It had a bow in the hair on it's head. The second one had white fur and purple and pink curly hair on it's head and tail. It also had a horn on it's head. The third and final creature had orange fur and purple spiky hair on it's head and tail. This one had wings and they were small.

"HELP!" One of the small creatures yelled. The big creature rose his tail which had a large stinger on it. And it brought it down but something had it's tail stuck. The creature turned his head and saw that Wargreymon had it's tail in his hand. The three small creature saw Wargreymon X holding the creatures stinger and gasped.

"THE THREE OF YOU, HIDE NOW!" Wargreymon yelled towards them. The three took his advice and ran and hid inside a log. Wargreymon released the creature's tail and then the beast turned it's head towards him. It began to growl at Wargreymon.

"Next time, pick on something your own size when you think about hunting." Wargreymon said to the creature. It looked at him with it's fangs bared and roared. It leaped at Wargreymon but Wargreymon dodged it and flew into the air.

"GAIA FORCE!" Wargreymon yelled as he threw up his hands. Then a reddish orange orb began to grow in size between Wargreymon's hands. And when the creature flew into the air and tried to get him, Wargreymon slammed the orb which was now the size of a small boulder at the beast and it created an explosion when it hit the creature. Wargreymon went back onto the ground and saw that his attack did massive damage and burned off most of the creature's fur. But the creature wasn't dead and it got up from the blast.

"You want more? Or are you going to leave?" Wargreymon X asked the beast. It didn't take a second for the beast to run off faster then a Renamon. With the creature gone, Wargreymon turned his attention the the three small beings. He walked over to the log they were hiding in and looked inside it.

"It's okay. It's gone." He said to the beings. They slowly but surely walked out of the log and in front of the large being as he moved away from the log.

"Are the three of you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah. W..we're okay." One of the three replied.

"Alright. Do the three of you have names?" He asked.

"Uh-Huh. I'm Applebloom. And these are my friends Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle. Who are you?" The yellow being asked in replying.

"My name is Wargreymon X. But you can call me Wargreymon." He replied.

"Thank you Wargreymon from saving our tails from the Manticore." Sweetie Belle said with a little smile.

"So that's what that creature's called? Strange. Can the three of you tell me where I am?" Wargreymon asked.

"You're in the Everfree Forest. And that's in Equestria." Scootaloo replied.

"Equestria? I guess I'm not in the Digital World anymore." Wargreymon thought to himself.

"So where in Equestria are ya' from?" Applebloom asked him out of curiosity.

"I'm not from Equestria. I'm from a place called 'The Digital World'." He replied.

"What's the Digital World?" Scootaloo asked.

"It's a place where it get's it's energy from anything digital. Such as an arcade game." Wargreymon replied.

"We've got tons of arcade games here. So Equestria helps the Digital World stay alive?" Applebloom asked.

"Yes. And the beings from the Digital World are called 'Digimon' or Digital Monsters." Wargreymon X replied.

"M..monsters." Sweetie Belle said as she started to shake.

"Don't worry. Not all Digimon are monsters. Some are really nice. Like me." Wargreymon said.

"Then why are you armored and have bladed gauntlets?" Scootaloo asked.

"Well...some Digimon are evil and try to hurt others. While other Digimon like me fight to make sure they don't hurt other Digimon. Like when I just saved you three from that Manticore." He replied.

"That makes a whole lot of sense. Anyway, thank ya' for saving us. And here's an official welcome to Equestria from us....THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!" The three yelled in unison.

"What are 'The Cutie Mark Crusaders?' " Wargreymon asked.

"Well...ponies here have a mark on their flanks called 'A Cutie Mark' and that shows their special talent. We don't have ours yet so we made a club dedicated to finding our mark. We were trying to get a cutie mark in tracking animals, but then that Manticore showed up and well...you did the rest." Scootaloo explained.

"Oh. Well I don't think that Manticore will bother you anymore. And promise me you'll try to stay out of this area." Wargreymon said.

"We promise." The three said in unison.

"Hey, do you have a place to stay?" Scootaloo asked.

"No. Do any of you have a place big enough for me to stay?" He asked in replying.

"I do. My farm should be big enough to hide ya'." Applebloom replied.

"Alright. But how do I get there without being seen?" Wargreymon asked.

"I know a back way. Come on." Applebloom replied. She then walked with Wargreymon and her friends until they came across an opening and he saw the barn that Applebloom talked about.

"That should work. Alright. Come on." Wargreymon said as he tried to sneak. The three were able to get Wargreymon into the barn without anyone seeing him.

"Here ya' go." Applebloom said to him with a smile.

"Thank you. I think I'll stay here until I can show my face around here. But for right now, can the three of you keep me a secret?" Wargreymon asked.

"Of course. We promise you." Scootaloo replied.

"Thank you." Wargreymon said in a happy voice.

"No problem. Think of it as repayment for saving us." Applebloom said with a smile. Then the three walked out of the barn and Wargreymon began to think to himself.

"How did I get here? And did that little purple light have anything with me coming here? Or was it destiny that I came here?"
