Falcomon: Friend or Foe?

"Yoshi!" Marcus yelled.

Charlie bent down and placed a hand on her head, only to quickly pull it back.

"Not good. Her temperature's exceeded 100 degrees." He gritted his teeth.

"Oh no." Marcus gasped. "That's a high fever."

"And this heat is only making things worse." Ash added, before turning to the side. "We need to get her out of here immediately. Thomas, you know what to do."

"On it." Thomas nodded in agreement. "D.N.A Charge!"

"Gaomon digivolve to Aquilamon!"

Yoshi is placed on Aquilamon's back.

"Find a cave, Aquilamon!" Thomas ordered.

Aquilamon flew off to find a cave for shelter.

A few moments later...

Marcus and Agumon walked back and forth outside the cave as Thomas tended to Yoshi.

"Why are we waiting outside?" Marcus complained.

"It's a total lack of respect for the boss." Agumon agreed.

"I get the feeling Yoshi would prefer her privacy." Gaomon replied

"Thomas is a guy and he's in there!" Marcus retorted.

"Don't stop so quick, boss." Agumon whined as he rubbed his injured nose.

"Because he has a medical license, little brother." Charlie pointed out.

"How does he have a medical license when he's the same age as me?" Marcus demanded.

"He's smarter than you." Gaomon shrugged.

"I am so much smarter!" Marcus fumed.

"I can use some checkup. Can the doctor see me next?" Agumon asked.

"Not without an appointment." Gaomon deadpanned.

Back in the cave...

"I think the last battle was too much for her." Thomas remarked after placing a cloth on her head.

"She's going to need water and plenty of rest." He concluded.

"Sorry guys." Yoshi apologized to the rest of the group through pants.

"It's alright." Thomas smiled. "You're not the only reason we're stopping. The rest of us could use a break as well. Although that stamina freak wouldn't admit it to anyone."

"Stamina freak." Yoshi smirked in amusement, before closing her eyes.

"She's asleep. Nice and quiet." Lalamon said.

"A little too quiet if you ask me. I can no longer hear Marcus or Agumon." Thomas noted.

"Neither can I." Ash added.

The two then heard Yoshi call out mentally.

'Marcus can you and Agumon please come back with the water.' She said in her mind.

'Oh yeah, thanks for the reminder.' Marcus replied back.

Thomas and Ash went to lead the two back to the cave, leaving Yoshi unprotected.

Up in the trees, Falcomon was doing surveillance.

In the river…

"This is just like a bathtub back at your house, Boss." Agumon remarked as he played in the water.

"Hey! Help me bring back this water!" Marcus protested. "We can't let Thomas take the credit for everything around here."

"You get mad when you get all wet." Agumon laughed after splashing Marcus with water.

"Oh yeah?" Marcus challenged. "You should see how angry I get when I'm dry!"

"Boss don't!" Agumon laughed as Marcus joined in the water fight. "I'm sorry!"

"You're the one who started this! Take that!" Marcus retaliated, splashing Agumon. And that! And that! And that!"

"Marcus!" Thomas stopped them. "Marcus!"

"What do you two want?" Marcus demanded before human and Digimon sweat dropped at being caught.

"Maybe the stamina freak doesn't need a break after all, Gaomon." Thomas deadpanned.

"Yes sir." Gaomon agreed.

Both Marcus and Agumon laughed weakly.

Back in the cave…

Falcomon flew Keenan down into the cave.

"Firecracker Smokescreen!" Falcomon unleashed his smokescreen at Greg and Veemon who were standing outside the cave.

Taking this distraction, Keenan ran into the cave.

"Hu-mon." Keenan growled as he approached her.

Grabbing her shirt, he hissed, "Hu-mon enemy. Get out of Digital World! Get out!"

"Get her Keenan!" Falcomon encouraged as he ran into the cave.

A shot was fired into the air.

"Leave her alone." Charlie ordered, holding his rifle up.

Greg and Veemon re-entered the cave after Falcomon's attack.

"You're going to regret coming in here to attack us." Greg said threateningly as he prepared to punch Keenan.

"Stop!" Yoshi demanded.
