Logging into The World, Gexarn immediately turns around and activates the Chaos Gate. Entering the keywords, he immediately disembarks to Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground, the Hulle Granz Cathedral.
Upon arrival, he stood atop the broken bridge, facing the towering structure. Drawing his sword, he began his walk toward the building, treading cautiously. He entered the main hall, scanning the room with his eyes, taking note of everything around him.

At the same time, Crow warps into the field, her faithful tsukaimon riding on her head. This is strange, she thought. He never does things like this. Crow approaches the cathedral door and enters. She is not the least bit frightened. If all else fails, she has her digimon companion. Once inside, she spots Gexarn examining the cathedral. He must have read the forum, she thinks.
Crow decides to muster her courage and say hello to this new fellow. "Um, excuse me," she says.

Spinning upon his heel, Gexarn immediately turns and points the blade at the newcomer. After eyeing her for several moments, he lowers his blade and lets out a sigh before continuing his examination.
"What do you want? I'm a bit busy here."
After a few moment, he begins walking forward slowly, ready for an attack, approaching the empty altar.

"It's about the Azure Flame Master, isn't it?" Crow asks. "You don't need to worry about him. He's always getting blamed for bad things that happen."
"He's our friend!" the tsukaimon blurts. "He helped us!"
"Gee, Pi, I wish you woudn't tell people these things!" Crow scolds. But it is too late to take back what has been said.

As he hears the two speak, his eyes widen. Hastily, he sheathes his blade and reaches over his shoulder, and begins pulling out his heavy blade. As he does so, his costume changes along with him, making him appear more like a warrior, and changing his hair color from red to brown. He abruptly turns around and holds up the heavy blade, glaring at the girl and her monster.
"You work with it?! Do you know what that thing has done?! I should strike you down here and now!"

"What she meant to say was that it helped us," Crow counters. "We were attacked by a data bug and he rescued us! How can he possibly be bad?"

"You probably just got lucky. This Azure Flame is known for the PKing of many players, all of which never returned to the game. In fact, each one is lying in a coma right now!"
He shouts at the girl as he holds his blade out, glaring angrily at the odd pair. d**n him... he'll pay.

"Pi, if we ever get out of this, remind me to hurt you later," Crow mutters. "Listen, I know of the rumours that he has PK'd many people that then fell into comas. I also know there are people in comas from this game. But, do you have any proof it was him and not someone... or something else? I came here because I want to get to the bottom of this. But I think it's not a good idea to accuse someone without any proof they actually did it."
"Black Gargomon did it! Black Gargomon!!" Pi shouts.
"Shut. Up." Crow scolds.

Glaring still, he listens as he examines her. Sighing, he eases his large weapon down and turns around, continuing to advance toward the altar.
"Look, you should just leave. You don't know what you're dealing with here. You're going to get hurt."

"Do you have any idea?" Pi asks. "If only Azure Flame comes, we're good. But what if we are confronted by the real killer?" The monster jumps off of Crow's head. "If that is the case then we shall face it with all our might."
"I know that staying here is dangerous, but so is ignoring the problem." Crow picks up the tsukaimon. "I would rather face a threat head-on than run from it and be forced to face it tired and sweaty. So wait we will."
"And you'd better not hurt the Azure Flame Master!" Pi spouts.

Growling, he glares at the idiotic piece of data talking to him. If only she knew what this thing did... stupid thing. He stopped in front of the altar, staring down at the red Sign. Recalling a certain event within Hidden Forbidden Keel Mountains, he shivered slightly. Sliding his heavy blade away, he suddenly draws his scythe, his attire and hair changing once more.
"It attacked a friend of mine. She's in a coma now. I'm going to destroy this thing, and I won't let you stop me. I'll take you down too if I must."
He closes his eyes as he stands there, recalling the horrific incident.
"What do you want to do with yourself," she asked. "Are you gonna level up, open a shop, what? C'mon, tell me!" A young woman, steam gunner class, stood standing next to Gexarn. He turned to her with a grin on his face. "I'm going to be the best player this game has ever seen!" The woman giggles, and then gives him a playful nudge. "Well, you're gonna have to catch up to me first, little newbie!"
________________________________________________________________________
The young woman began to fall to the ground, an orange suited twinblade wielding a three-edged blade standing above her. His eyes wide, he glared over at Gexarn before leaving through the nearby Sign. Gexarn rushed to her side, attempting to wake her, but to no avail.
________________________________________________________________________
Gexarn, out of game, sobbed over a newspaper opened to a small story about a young girl found in a coma while playing The World.

Pi, however, is far from done being annoying. "Ever hear of original Twilight incident? Well, Mister Azure Flame saved "The World"... not once or twice... but more than ten times! No way he would turn to a life of crime."
Gee, she's being defensive, Crow ponders. could it have anything to do with that...?
Crow was out in the Digimon Training Peak, trying to train her patamon. The little orange monster wasn't taking to training and instead ran off. Crow had to chase it. She chased it to the top of the peak, where it was being attacked by a BlackTyrannomon. But something was wrong with it. It was covered in green spots like it was sick. The patamon attacked valiantly, but neither could inflict any damage on it. Crow tried to run, but the patamon kept attacking. The black dinosaur chomped down on the patamon... and ate it! Crow was terrified. The patamon was gone! Entirely!
The BlackTyrannomon was ready to make Crow his next meal, when a flash of red stopped the giant in its tracks. It spun around, truing to get a fix, but to no avail. Crow was too terrified to move. But the flash of red, whom she could see clearly now as a twin blade with a pair of Phoenix Tail blades, stood his ground, shielding Crow from the giant lizard. Single-handedly, he held it back, though reluctant to use his blades for some reason. The red twin blade then pushed it... pushed five tons of lizard toward the edge of the cliff. Unable to balance, the BlackTyrannomon fell, but was back on his feet.
The red twin blade grabbed Crow and carried her away, running like the wind with an angry dinosaur on his tail. But they had made it to a portal and warped off the peak, leaving the Tyrannomon behind.
Crow woke up in her Digimon Farm (a special place to keep digimon, similar to but bigger than a grunty ranch). Nobody was there. Nobody except a small purple digimon. It looked identical to her patamon, except for the colour.
"Hello!" it said. "I'm a tsukaimon! I was instructed to tell you that for not fearing the Great Azure Flame Master, he has recognized you as a keeper of the peace and has thus awarded me to you. The Azure Flame wants you to know that he is not to be feared, as he is not behind any of the attacks. In fact, his greatest desire is to do good for the entire world."
Crow looked at the odd little creature. "He didn't have to rescue me," she wondered, "so why did he?"
There's no way he's bad, not after what happened that day. Just... misunderstood.
Crow took a seat in one of the pews. "Guess I'll be here awhile, but I'm pretty sure I can wait longer than you can." She stroked the tsukaimon. "You know, the Azure Flame cannot actually speak on his own. He only growls so that's why people think he's a bad guy. But I'm lucky enough to know the truth, thanks to this little purple messenger."

"Thirteen of them!" Gexarn shouts angrily, obviously getting annoyed. "Thirteen people are in comas right now! Brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, sons, daughters! All in comas because of this monster! Don't you DARE tell me that this THING is not bad!!!"
The blue-robed reaper grasped his scythe tightly, turning from the girl and her creature, facing the empty altar that once hold the statue of Aura. Walking up to it, he examined it closely, looking for some sort of clue as to the whereabouts of the azure PK.

"Well, I have to go," Crow announced. "Got a flash mail. If you're interested, you could follow me into Omnimon Falls, I guess. Perhaps the answer to this mystery lies in the Training Peak. I can't say for sure though."
Crow then gated out.

After inspecting the area thoroughly, and finding nothing, Gexarn gates out and returns to Mac Anu.
