The three boys went to work that day and had a lot of success with their very own mining area, they were able to keep it a secret after all. Butch, Theos and Dan worked hard together and always made sure to bring up just enough to draw away Mamemon's suspicions. That area became a hideout so to speak for the boys, as time went on they would finish mining their share early and layabout in their private area for most of the day. It worked out great for them, sharing jokes and playing games. It was the first time Butch had felt like a kid since arriving in this town to work, and it drew him closer and closer to Theos and Dan. Theos, their proclaimed Captain, was very good at drawing away Mamemon whenever he would grow suspicious. He became an idol for Dan and Dan would follow closely behind Theos wherever he went. The days weren't always easy, sometimes they would argue about trivial things and Theos would be the one to decide. Often siding with Butch, which left Dan a little sore but proud whenever Theos would side with his decisions. Eventually, the boys started hanging out on their days off, visiting the various places of Bai Hu and even ventured outside the city. Usually when they did, it would be to the nearby Oasis that they would use to swim in and play games. Their days eventually blurred together and they couldn't picture it without the whole group. When work would begin, Dan and Theos would seek out Max who would also tell them stories about W.A.D.A. eventually Butch would join them. They only missed the truck once because they got caught up with Max and had to walk. They arrived at break time and as punishment had to work without supplies, poor Dan thought he was going to die that day. He was not made for such a long trek, and Butch had to sneak him some water. Almost getting caught while doing so.
Yet they still never managed to have that sleepover, until today on the thirtieth day of their meeting. The boys have just arrived back from work and another successful day they had as well, Butch was finally ready to invite them to spend the night. He was a little embarrassed though. Dan was hopping around, making circles around his friends. "Today was fun to! I now have enough units to buy that toy I was eyeing the other day!" Dan exclaimed. Butch laughed, "That ball? The one with the encrusted stones? Why would you want that thing?" Butch asked. "Cause I'm rich!" Dan said poking Butch. "Hey knock it off you." Butch said chuckling. As they were walking home Butch turned a slight red, "Um...hey...Dan...Theos." Butch put his paws around his back interlocking them, his tail hanging high in the air. He looked down at the ground and was drawing circles in the sand with his feet, "What's up Butch? You look kinda funny." Dan said looking at him, "Well....remember a while back, we talked about spending a night together....well...um...I cleaned my basement...and I was wondering....wou-would you guys want to come over tonight?" Butch asked looking from the ground to his friends and back again. Dan blinked twice and looked at Theos, "I don't mind but..." he'd only do it if Theos said yes. Dan smiled innocently at Theos while he waited for an answer.

Theos grew happier and happier as the days went by. In truth it felt like their time would never end. They worked hard and played more. It all felt perfect. His admiration for W.A.D.A. grew and his love for his friends even more. He honestly decided he could live without becoming a member of W.A.D.A. so long as he had his friends. There was times he had to draw Mamemon away. He was a good talker after all oddly enough. it was probably his friendly personality that kept his suspicions at bay for the most part. As they begun hanging out outside of work and traveling together Theos learned more and more about the city he lived in. It was actually quite pleasant once he got to go around and learn about all the different places. They even went to the oasis and met the geckomon's there. Theos and his geckomon friend played out the day they first met much to everyone's delight. It was more than a little fun to have all his friends together.
Of course eventually night always settled in and they had to part ways. Each going home to rest and sleep til tomorrow. It was a sweet sorrow one could say cause they knew they would always see one another again. Walking down the street after work was always a fun affair. Theos listened to Dan as he spoke about a ball he had been wanting. In truth Theos had hardly spent any of the money he had gotten. He left it to his grandpa to use to buy food and other things they needed.
Butched asked if they wanted to come over tonight after hesitating a bit making Theos smile. "Sure but i should tell my grandpa so he doesn't worry. In fact why don't we eat there I'm sure he'll have a big pot of food as always and we can come back here and play til we fall asleep." He suggested with a smile.

Dan nodded, "Sure, I'm gonna tell my brothers. I'll meet you two at Butch's place, okay? See you soon!" Dan said running home with pep in his step. Butch watched him run and he looked to Theos, "I can come with you to your home. It's better then waiting alone." Butch said to Theos. He was still slightly embarrassed about his proposal but his friends agreed to it. "So, your grandpa is a Jyagamon right? His home must be pretty small. Most Jyagamon in the village are packs and live together. Anything I should know before introducing myself?" Butch asked. He placed his arm around his friend as they walked, giving him a smile.

"He's super friendly and loves others a lot. I've told him all about you and Dan. So he would be absolutely delighted to meet you i'm sure," Theos said smiling and leading the way back to his place.

The three boys made their way towards Max, they seemed a bit different somehow, Max noted. They had determination judging by the look in their eyes. Max smiled and knelt down to their level, "I know the look of grit when I see it, so what do you want to know about today?" He asked. Butch clenched his fists tightly together and looked Max in the eye. "Let us join W.A.D.A.!" Butch exclaimed. Max was surprised by the request, "We want to protect this world! We want to help people! We refuse to let mining define the future!" Dan added. Their request was very passionate and it was surprisingly refreshing. Max stood up and crossed his arms thinking. "I don't know guys, that is not an easy request. I don't even have the authorization to approve it." Max stated, "So then we will beg the person who does!" Dan said, "Yea on our hands and knees with our heads at their feet if we must!" Butch added. Max looked like he was in a very awkward position, "You seem to be very serious about this." Max said. "Even you Theos? What about Jared?" He asked.

Butch exclaimed. Max was surprised by the request, "We want to protect this world! We want to help people! We refuse to let mining define the future!" Theos looked at them. Such passion he couldn't help but to smile and look up at the thinking Max. "I don't know guys, that is not an easy request. I don't even have the authorization to approve it." Max stated, "So then we will beg the person who does!" Dan said, "Yea on our hands and knees with our heads at their feet if we must!" Butch added. Max looked like he was in a very awkward position, "You seem to be very serious about this." Max said. "Even you Theos? What about Jared?" He asked.
"I was thinking instead of earning money for me maybe they could help protect Jared. Nanimon already threatened to make him work in my place once. If I leave he may try to make good on that," Theos said looking at Max's feet. "But I do want to join W.A.D.A. and Jared loves me enough he tried to convince me to leave in the first place. I know he wants me to explore and learn. So long as I come back and tell him my stories once in awhile," Theos looked up at Max with determination in his eyes.
"I will join W.A.D.A. whither it's today or many years from now. I will. My love for my family may hold me back but that love is stronger than anything. And that love for my family will be what makes me one of the best agents there are," Theos said puffing his chest a bit.

Max listened to Theos who had just as much passion and drive as his friends, he took a moment to think on it then smiled. "Okay." Max said, "Okay!?" Dan and Butch said in unison perking up. "Okay! I'll begin the paperwork and have it sent to the embassy with my highest praises. As a squad captain, I can get it escalated and probably have you authorized by the embassy today." Max said with a wide smile. Dan had tears of joy in his eyes and Butch pumped his fist, "Awesome!! This is fantastic!!" He exclaimed. Max couldn't help but laugh at their excitement, "I will also issue a protection order for Jared, we won't let him be abused by Bai Hu in your absence Theos. Now that you'll be joining W.A.D.A. I gotta look out for you three." Max stood back up and was met with an embrace on his legs from Dan and Butch and possibly Theos. "Max, you're fantastic! I'm so excited!!" Dan said. "Okay boys, now you're not W.A.D.A. yet so off to work with you, getting ores is still important work." Max said scooting them along. "Thanks Max! We will come see you when we've returned!" Butch said waving, he turned to look at Dan and Theos, "We did it guys! One more day, just one more....and we three can be a agents together!" Butch exclaimed. Very faintly, Nanimon could be heard handing out assignments and just like usual, group F got the mines. The three of them were the first to the truck knowing full well what assignment they'd be getting. Dan was humming happily and Butch was sitting down kicking his legs back and forth. "Off to the mines we go." Dan said. Once the truck was packed, it would take off towards the mines.

Now that you'll be joining W.A.D.A. I gotta look out for you three." Theos also hugged him. His had burying into is hip as he stood on hind legs. "Max, you're fantastic! I'm so excited!!" Dan said.

Butch said waving, he turned to look at Dan and Theos, "We did it guys! One more day, just one more....and we three can be a agents together!" Theos jumped for the truck eagerly his tail wagging a mile a minute. "Off to the mines we go." Dan said. Once the truck was packed, it would take off towards the mines.
Theos watched the dusty old road go by past all those faces of other digimon he didn't really know but recognized. A sense of euphoria washed over him. One last time he'd see these faces and this road. He only truly ever noticed this road one other time. When he had first began. Not it was ending. This chapter of his life to start a new one. A better one he believed without a doubt.
