"Huh? He's dea-aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!"
Ranamon could hear her screaming her lungs out as she suddenly found herself falling from where she was sitting, as if her Mega protector had suddenly disappeared, only to land on a pair of strong arms with an audible "Oof!" coming from her as she made her unannounced landing, grateful that she didn't land on the ground given the distance between her original position and the hard soil.
"I wish I had wings..." she cringed and mumbled to herself as she opened her eyes to look at whoever, or whatever, had caught her, quickly finding herself looking at Leon and DemiVeemon on his head. The blue one was a dead-on Digimon, but the other one was unrecognizable. He looked like an Etemon, but was dressed in odd-looking clothes, had hair on his head and a furless skin.
"Huh? Who are you both?" she asked, sounding confused and lost, though her train of thoughts were promptly interrupted when he, DemiVeemon, another Etemon-like being, and another Digimon were engaged in a conversation, clearly a lot more pressing than her own confusion. Her instincts, honed by years of living as a thief, kicking in, she carefully listened in to the conversation, picking up a few key words that she was familiar with: Infiltrate, organization, mobile.
"Hey, are you guys planning to steal something?" she asked, speaking after Leon and DemiVeemon were done speaking so she could get their attention. "Because, if you do, I want in. Whatever you guys are planning to do with this organization, I want to help. Besides, it's not like there's a lot of challenges for me here and I already have way too big of a bounty to stay in the Digital World for too long."
In the middle of his confusion, Guilmon sensed a familiar figure approaching them, then making fun of him while he looked at himself. Instead of a sense of shock and shame normally expected from a Royal Knight, Guilmon was filled with a sense of familiarity and relief at seeing his tiny Rookie form, seeing that he was starting back from square one.
"I suppose I am, Master ShineGreymon. I miss being so small and helpless," he calmly replied to EmperorGreymon. "As to why I'm here, I truly wish I could answer that."
His wish was granted when Wisemon, suddenly darting towards them, dropped in with a struggling Patamon. Putting two and two together, Guilmon carefully crawled on WarCapidramon's hand towards his ally. "Master Seraphimon! Do you recognize me?"
