The Fire Pit

(Dasuke Moto's story begins here.)

Dasuke entered the Guild Hall of the Crimson Riders for the first time. He had never been in here before as it was restricted to W.A.D.A. Agents only. He looked around in awe at the sheer size of it and marveled at how many official Agents were milling about. He was one of them now. His dream was finally coming true. He fiddled with the brand new D.I.G. unit he was wearing and still in awe of how well it suited his arm. As he wandered around the common area, he noticed a few of the other Agents and their partners looking at him and nodding and smiling. Dasuke would have loved to stay and chat, but he had been summoned by the Guild Master himself, so he walked with a purpose.

Dasuke entered one of the elevators and pressed the button for the third floor. As the elevator rose, Dasuke was able to get a birds eye view of the Fire Pit and see just how big it really was. There were humans and Digimon alike milling about with plenty of room to spare, even for the bigger creatures. Dasuke again felt a surge of pride as he realized he was part of this team. When the elevator stopped and the doors opened, he stepped out and looked around. He noticed a sign on the wall indicating that the Dormitories were to the left and the Guild Master's chambers were to the right. Dasuke turned right and headed down the hall, walking along the terrace and admiring the view of the Fire Pit. He soon arrived at the Guild Master's office.

Scott entered the common room known as the Fire Pit, which apparently served as his newly joined Guild's main hall. He wasted no time in heading upstairs to the Guild Master's office, not bothering to take in the sights of the elaborate room. He followed the signs and found himself at the door leading to Gordon Scarsborough's chambers.

Sayuri entered the guild hall, moving with the grace one might expect from a practiced swordswoman. She paused briefly, looking around just long enough to locate a sign with directions towards the Guild Master's office. Part of her wanted to linger just a little longer to take in her surroundings, but her task at hand was more pressing. She could always take her time once it was completed. Focused, the woman resumed her trek towards the Guild Master's office.

Scott entered the Fire Pit to see it as busy as ever. He briefly wondered what the point of this organization was if all the Agents seemed to be in the Hall all the time. No matter. He, at least, was doing something that the guild master deemed of value. He walked around the main lounging area with the image of Andy on his D.I.G., looking for the flesh and blood match. Eventually, he found is mark. The boy was sitting alone at a table off to one side, drinking an orange juice and looking nervous. Scott walked over and stood on the other side of the table. He would not sit as spoke.

"So. You're Andy, I presume. I'm Scott Foreman. Guild Master Scarsborough sent me to meet you. I would rather be doing anything else in the world instead of babysitting some kid, but I can't disobey my superiors. So I'm stuck with you now. I guess you're doing the hybrid challenge, too. Like I did. Well, I'll be honest kid. It's not easy. Not by a long shot. I don't want to get into it here in the hall. Walk with me. I'll take you to the Transport Deck. Hurry up, will you? I want to get this assignment over with." With that, Scott would begin to walk back towards the Fire Pit's exit, waiting at the door if Andy wasn't already beside him.

Sayuri had wandered off somewhere after her visit to the guild master's office, but whatever she had been doing she was apparently done with now. She made her way towards the common area, looking for a place to sit and meditate for a bit. Later she knew she would have to find quarters and take on some quests. For now, some time to reflect on the days events was more appealing. Short of someone stopping her, she would find a somewhat quiet place to sit, and keep to herself.

Dasuke arrived back in the Fire Pit alone. He looked around again at the now familiar surroundings. It was very similar to when he first arrived, various humans and digimon milling about, minding their own business. They were all blissfully unaware of the horrors Dasuke had just endured. For a brief moment, he wondered how many of them had experienced similar terror, but were now able to shake it off. Dasuke quickly pushed the idea back. He had business to attend to, and his rush of adrenaline was beginning to wear off. He needed to report to Gordon quickly before he passed out from sheer exhaustion. He made his way to the elevators and up to the Guild Master's office.

As he walked in for the first time Vent scowled. There were so many happy people and digimon so much laughter it infuriated him. He knew it was just him sulking and in time he may see these people as friends. For now though it was all too soon.

He was amazed by the sheer size and look of the guild though. As he looked around he saw more and more details of the guild. He then quickly shook his head he had one thing to do right now and that was find the guild masters office. As he saw the sign directing him to his destination he said to himself.
"If I can help it I will help anyone I can no matter what it takes."
With that he headed up the stairs to the guild masters office.

Dasuke wandered into the Fire Pit and made his way straight to the bar in the lounging area. There was a Burgamon Adult tending the bar there and he greeted Dasuke with a smile. "What can I get you, sir? We have plenty of great burgers to choose from here. Made them myself! Not brag, or anything." Burgamon said, chuckling to himself. 

"Thank you, Burgamon, but no. Just give me a tall glass of beer, and that's all for now. Not really hungry right now. How much do I owe for this?" Dasuke said, pulling up his account on his D.I.G..

"One drink....that would be 10 units, please," Burgamon said, and he raised a tablet like device with the bill on it. Dasuke raised his D.I.G. up and aimed the scanner at the tablet. In seconds, his name appeared on the screen and a statement of a successful transaction appeared. "Thank you, kindly," Burgamon said, looking at the tablet for visual confirmation. "Moto? Why do I know that name? You someone famous around here or something? Oh! I know! Your name popped up on the quest board a few hours ago. Some doctor wanted to meet you about a missing Digimon, I think. Does something about a red lizard mean anything to you?"

Dasuke immediately choked on his drink and almost spewed it all over the bar counter. He coughed and swallowed his mouthful before turning and looking at the giant Quest Board mounted in the hall. Sure enough, towards the bottom, was a personal quest with his name on from Dr. Ichi, titled "Kidnapping".  "Oh my god! Thanks for the drink but I have to run!" Dasuke said and quickly left for Ichi's office, leaving his beer unfinished.

Vent walked into the Guild hall yawning loudly as he poped his neck and looked around. "Wonder where my room is." He said talking to himself thinking no one was listening. He than began walking over to an empty booth as he reached it he later down on it and just stared at the ceiling raising his hand with his D.I.G on it and stared at it. "I did it. But this won't be enough." He said sighing.

Dantelion looked around amazed at the open space. It made him feel a little small. He frowned as he looked around uncertainty filling him as he realized he had no idea where to go. He began looking for signs and found one near the stairs and elevator stating each floor contents. As he realized he had to go to the top he looked up the stairs and gave a sigh. He disliked elevators he always felt like his stomach was left behind.

Heading up the stairs he passed the second floor without so much as a glance. Upon arriving on the third floor he looked both ways looking for some sign of the Guild Masters office. He started walking casting his glance over the railing. The bottom was so far away it gave him a sense of vertigo and he moved away from the railing to be safe. He definitely was not going to do that again. 

He noticed a digimon standing beside a door different from the rest. He had no idea what it was. It was tall, girly and looks like it had a flower bud for a head. He guessed this was it. He walked up to her staring at her face.


"Is this the Guild Masters office." he asks her.

Lillymon looked up from her desk at the young man standing before her and smiled, fluttering her wings. "Why, yes. This is Master Scarsborough's office. I only have two scheduled arrivals for this afternoon. The other agent is already inside, so you must be Dantelion Moudry, yes? I take it you'd like to meet with Master Scarsborough? Unfortunately, as I mentioned, Guild Master Scarsborough is in with another new agent right now. It shouldn't take long, so you're welcome to wait for him to finish.

No sooner did Lillymon finish talking than the door to the office opened wide, and a young man with silver hair stepped out. He almost bumped into Dantelion on his way by. "Oh, excuse me," the boy said. He then continued around Dantelion to wherever he was headed, closing the door behind him.

"Well, I guess he's done now," Lillymon said with a giggle. "Go on in!" Lillymon pressed the button on her desk and the door clicked open. Dantelion would now be able to go in at his convenience.

Dantelion didn't say a word letting the silver haired boy slip past. He gave a polite nod to the flower digimon before heading in.

He gave a nod to the flower digimon as he passed. Very little time had passed he realized. It had seemed so much longer because he had been nervous. He headed for the stairs stopping at the first floor to look at the signs.

He looked back and forth afterwards moving towards the Digimon Registry as indicated.
