[For a moment, Takeru didn't say anything. Instead, he just looked back at Patamon before lowering his head a little. While he had gotten use to the idea that his brother probably won't show up here, he still freezes up from time to time talking about him.]

No, he isn't but that's okay. Even if he isn't, that just means I need to be twice as strong for him! He told me not to give up so I won't!

[Otherwise, he really doesn't know what other choice he has. When all of his other friends weren't here, he need to do twice the work now. But even then...]

But I think we should be able to find some firewood here! We just need to look for ones that aren't wet right?
