The trailmon was doing a good time, hopefully enought to get them to Hardware Den in time to strike the deal with T. Not that the trailmon was doing it willingly. Afterall, Chronomissimon and Minomon hacked it and were now "driving" it. The idea that those two in-trainings captured the train was amusing for Joseph, yet, not impossible.
Finnaly they arrived. The trailmon would take some time to wake up again and he would never remember what happened. It was a good thing, otherwise Joseph and his partners would be filled with troubles. Well, more than those they did have.
Now there was the important thing that was funding T within this robotic village.
"Got any ideas Ankh?" Joseph asked the hawkmon. "Your scource told you anything more beyond Hardware Den?"
Meaningwhile Minomon was exiting the trailmon when she saw Vetina and her friend Betty. She bowed.
"I hope you enjoyed your trip. Our methods are a bit disputable, but I assure you, Joseph is a good person. He just needs a little time to get there." Minomim claimed before leaving the trailmon. She almost screamed as she saw Chronomissimon waiting for her.
"You better make up your mind. Joseph is good NOW, because he has a profiting purpouse. Your morals are but a waste of time, so don't you dare trying that little stunt of having strangers trying to get to Joseph's moral again. Got it?" the missile digimon warned. Minomon nodded, afraid.

Finally, the train stopped. Betty had dozed off for a good deal of the trip, lulled by the passing environment. But she awoke once their destination was reached. The Minomon had greeted them as they began to exit out the train, but afterwards was berated by her brother for implying that Joseph was good. Vetina figured she might as well jump in, speaking to the Minomon first.
"The personal morality I own makes no lenghty climb, but no less a desirable for some. You two drive with different fuels but for the same cause. Even at odds, with different methodologies, your services shan't be lower than your equal. Your tamer will partake whatever course presented, you less so if you offer less so.
And to offer slight your barking equal seems to lean towards that of, shall we say, the exit of defication."
Vetina walked off, leaving Betty to translate Vetina's words for them.
"The short of it is... she might not hold the moral high ground, but she wants you to keep doing what you are doing, Minomon. And also insulted your brother."
"Smeeelllyyy fecalllll!!!"
"Again, to her own admittence, she's not the most moral digimon around."

Ankh then got down to the seat of the Trailmon after hours of sleeping, latching on the top shelves for luggage. It was natural for him, considering he was a bird Digimon that liked high places. After the train stopped, he got down from the train along with the others. Now was the time to test this T's strength.
Joseph asked the Vaccine-type Rookie for the suggestion, before asking about what Chuumon had told him earlier. "Of course, we've to play along with whatever T would offer to us. And there's chance to strike."
Ankh then heard the fight between Chronomissimon and Minomon, with the former told the latter not to turn Joseph into his good self. In response, Ankh shouted, "Shut up!" Hopefully it would silence the machine and bug Digimon He sighed, as he hated such pointless bicker. "Whether he decides to gets his moral back or not, it's his to decide. You shouldn't intervene with such puny matters." Ankh said.
Vetina then talked the vague words, basically telling the Minomon to do what she wanted, and not to insult her brother. Or, it should be Chronomissimon who shouldn't insult his sister instead, despite being not a moral Digimon around. Ankh himself considered as the digimon with least moral, as he was uncaring towards anything else but power. He just wanted great power to defeat his rival, that's it.
That Chuumon told about the Hardware Den, but he didn't tell the details, so Ankh had to search him in dark. It was gamble-or-nothing then. "Damn that vermin, he didn't tell us the specific location of that T. Whatever, let's search for him. Let's search him from... probably a bar, I guess?" Ankh then began the search, starting from the bar.

As Vetina stepped in and her friend Betty translated, Chronomissimon was clearly upset, despite Minomon's gigles at being defended by Vetina and Betty.
"You have to be joking. It's not about morale! It's about where your actions lead... And morale never ends up well on it's own. A proper goal does. And from where I see it, that makes our current goal better than your pretty little Morales." Chronomissimon claimed before being told to shut and explained that Joseph's digimon shouldn't interfiere with his decisions on morale.
"I agree with Hankh. Let's see what Joseph wants on his own. Let's go Minomon." Chronomissimon said in response. All this time, Minomon had just stayed shut, as she was once more frightned.
MeaningwhileJoseph heard as Ankh claimed to be no more info on T's loaction. Only after the suggestion of the hawkmon to go look in a bar, did they go anywhere.
They walked in the bar, the pound sounds filling their ears. The smell of oil was everywhere. Joseph was walking to a table when a gotsumon approached.
"You Joseph, pal?" the gotsumon asked.
"Yeah. How do you know?" Joseph replied with hopes to have found a clue on T.
"Come then. T is waiting. And he is VERY annoyed over your delay." the gotsumon answered part firfilling Joseph's hopes.
"Then he shouldn't have lied on his location." Joseph answered.

Indeed, Vetina did agree with Ankh about Joseph needing to decide what he should do- All Vetina said (barring her insult towards the brother) was for Minomon to keep doing what she was doing and not get talked down by Chronomissimon.
"I concur with the cur." she said to everyone I agreement with the Hawkmon.
And with that debate aside, now was time to go search for more info of this T character. Ankh figured a bar would be the best place to start, and the group went out to look for one. And, they had to admit, it was a good educated guess, as Ankh and Joseph found another contact. The girls hung back a bit, not too far to the group, but not too close.
"I wonder when time whittles down to drunkard courting."
"Courting you? Pfft, all they'll see is a fat Palmon who speaks weird."
"But other forms do present an aura of attraction. My hips are worth diamonds. Still, my comment was not to snipe any males initially."
"...that was one time, Vetina. One. Time."

The group began their search of T as Ankh suggested. They entered the bar, and inside was... too loud. The loud piston sounds and smeary oil scent. All of those made Ankh irked, and he would vomit of this kept going, but he had to bear all of those, to gain the power. He was interested to see this T guy as well.
A Gotsumon appeared, telling Joseph to meet T as soon as possible. From that T's acquaintance, Ankh just made a good idea of begin their search in a bar. Considering most drug deals were done at a bar, his hypothesis was indeed logical. Not to mention he would meet one of the most dangerous mafia there.
"Take me to this T guy." He told the Gotsumon.
He then heard Vetina commenting about hitting a random guy. From Betty's speeches, Ankh just chuckled, that such fat Palmon wanted to hook up a mon. "Heh. I doubt a guy will understand you. If they do, they need to write each of your word into notes, so they can make dictionary to translate your speeches." Ankh scoffed to the plant.

"And you are?" the Gotsumon asked Ankh.
"Nevermind that now, we`re in a hurry. Just takes us to "T"." Joseph said
The gotsumon nodded and got them out of the bar.
"Well, it`s a bad day for drunk people!" The gotsumon yelled, making a group of other gotsumons appear with blindfolders. The first one turned to them again "You know, folks usual procidure, nothing personal. Just let them get the blindfolders on you, then we`ll get going."
"Well, I guess we`d better not have come all this way for nothing." Joseph replied. As he got blidnfolded (and his partners too), he realised Chronomissimon and Minomon were strangely quiet now.
After some blind walking, they were unblindfolded again. They were inside a weird cave-like structure, the only light being a few candles spread here and there. A weregarurumon with na eye-patch was standing in front of them, a wicked smile on his face.
"So you`re Joseph. I knew at least one of your partners was in-training, but both? You`re a disgrace. Still, I won`t back in my word, so let`s strike the deal, shall we?" the Weregarurumon said, taking out a piece of paper and a knife.
"Yeah, of course...T." Joseph replied. "Am I suppose to cut my hand with that knife?"
"Nope it`s to take your head of." T answered, sarcastically "Of course it is to cut your hand. I enjoy traditions."
Joseph approached took the knife and spread some blood from his hand into the contract. He saw the blood disappear into paper, absorbed like if a digimon was absorbing raw data.
"What the...?" Joseph asked, shocked.
"Now we´re bound to the contract. By the way what`s with the chicken, the nuts palmon and the hot flamedramon? You didn`t tell me about them." T explained.
"That´s cause I only met them where you told me you`d be. By the way, you still have to explain that."
"Very well, But first some celebration. Hey you pieces of useless rock, get us the bear!" T shouted. The Gotsumon`s bowed in fear and left to get food and drink.
There was clearly more to this weregarurumon than one could see at first. Something these people feared. A lot.

"Thesarus. He'll require a thesarus." was Vetina's last comment to Ankh before the group was blindfolded. Vetina and Betty allowed this, Betty even kneeled down to lets the Gotsumon tie it in her. And so, the group were led to their next destination, all the while Vetina was keeping note of the distance and directions she walked, just in case.
The group eventually came to a one eyed WereGarurumon. As this "T" and Joseph made plesantries and the latter agreed to sime contract signed with blood, the girls looked around the cave area. Kinda eerie with the contract and the candles.
T then wondered where the girls and Ankh came from, calling Vetina nuts (which is weird, as she hasn't spoke yet!) And Betty hot.
"...I really hope you were just making a pun. Besides, take my friend, she'll be better for you."
"...was that... you being ironic? Really, low blow."
"Sorry... long story guys."

Ankh was about to answer the Gotsumon, but Joseph interrupted to go to this T right away. Vetina commented about Ankh getting dictionary, as he just said. He could only facepalm that his words returned on him. How ironic.
Ankh was surprised that he was blindfolded, and was brought to a place of some sort, where this T guy was waiting. Once he opened his blindfold, he found himself in the dark cave of some sort, and he saw a WereGarurumon with an eyepatch. So... was he that T guy? And he seemed to know Joseph in a circumstance. It seemed there were more in this T guy.
Joseph then "signed" the contract with a blood, that was absorbed into the paper like void! Ankh stared at this "contract" intensely, wondering if that T had put a spell or two in it, so Joseph would likely... Whatever happened, it was interesting to finally meet this T guy.
"Hmph. You have some nerve to call me chicken, Don T." Ankh scoffed at the WereGarurumon. "I'm Ankh, and I'm seeking power to subjugate the strong."
Ankh introduced himself as the Gotsumon left to take them some beer and foods. Ankh looked at him suspiciously, and thinking if there was any trap laid around.

"Well, it saddens me, that it doesn`t seem you would take my request for going out with me. Bad luck for both of us, I guess." T replied to Betty. He then turned to Ankh and grabbed a piece of meat, likely pork, and took a bite. It wasn`t even cooked, it was raw, completly, so the blood just came down on his mouth as he spoke and chewed at the same time "Well, it´s nice to meet ya, Ankh, I think we`ll get along. Maybe we can strike a deal too, huh? You get power I get services, how bout that? Maybe we can even help Jospeh here while our deal is going."
Joseph didn`t eat and neither did Chronomissimon, but they both headed for the corner, laying against the Wall, thinking about what to do next. They still had 3 guys like T to find and strike a deal with, but still...they could wait the night. Joseph`s mind was filled with the memories of the previous ones. All idiotic jerks. Still, what they were going to do...It`s not so bad to have people like T doing it, or he`d lose something to emotions such as compassion or greed. Chronomissimon kept a close eye, however, on the Minomon. He had to make sure she didn`t screw things now.
Minomon, on the other hand, headed to Vetina and Betty.
"So... Now we`re here what do YOU want to do?" Minomon asked the two.

Betty was not at all phased at T's dissappointment over not getting a date with Betty. Were he not involved in shady stuff and had a human sign a contract in blood and ate food like an animal, not to mention the situation they were in, even if it wasn't dire at the moment, maybe she would have given him a chance. But that's a lot of things to consider, so she has no interest.
During the festivities, the Minomon had went up to the girls, asking them what they would like to do.
"Me, to take in the edibles. This rotund frame provides, suffice to say, a practical reason of being. And, distant from a minor reason... I am running a mite famished."
And so, Vetina went off to go eat, leaving Betty all one with the Minomon.
"Well, I guess that leaves us two. I'm not quite ready to relax, though. What the hell is all this about? I mean, I wasn't going to ask at first but I admit... I am curious."

The deal wasn't half-bad at all. But Ankh had to keep his suspicion to the WereGarurumon as he didn't want to get into the trap. Not to mention Chuumon was a bit shady lately. Does that meant they work together? Whatever happened, he had to be careful.
"While your deal sounds good, I need to rethink about it."
Ankh then grabbed a raw meat and grilled it in his humanoid right hand with its fire, turning it into grilled steak. Ankh then chowed on the now grilled meat feastfully. He was indeed hungry but he preferred to eat cooked meat to the raw ones.
"While I don't get the idea of you liking raw meat, it tastes good." Ankh commented as he chowed the steak. "So, what are you gonna do next, Don T?"
Ankh then turned to the Minomon and Betty, shrugging why they didn't join.

As Vetina went off to eat, leaving Minomon with Betty, the flamedramon asked about what was going on.
"Well, let's pretend we're having a girly conversation, because if Chronomossimon or Joseph figure out that I'm gonna tell you what I'm about to tell you, they'll both be really angry. Just put a smile on and make a loud comment on skirts or something like that occasionally." Minomon whispered to Betty, before getting up straight and putting on a smile the best she could. She returned to her normal speech tone "The truth is...Joseph is gathering an army. Don't get it wrong he's a sweet good boy, he's just... Angry at life. I'm trying to pull his good self up, I'm trying really. Joseph has been making deals with these criminal dudes all over the digital world, all agreeing to provide him with what he needs. Okay I'm gonna shout now. BETTY YOUR HAIR IS GORGEOUS!"
Meaningwhile, T witness as Ankh took out a piece of meat for himself and cooked it. He let out a loud laugther.
"And you cook too! Ha! Think about the deal, Ankh, who knows? Maybe I'll even add in riches, we could really use a guy like you." T told Ankh, patting him on the back. The hawkmon commented on raw meat "Well, when you live in my world, a guy usually can't afford to look too picky. I eat what I get. Besides...this is MEAT. You know where it comes from? The human world. Top quality. You can't hunt a digimon and get meat, but animals on the human world? Yeah. And they're delicious." T took out another large bite of the raw meat. "What I'm gonna do next? Well, I have a deal to forfill. I never back on my word. I have to get those troops ready for Joseph. Oh boy, that Minomon sure os excited today, isn't she?"
Chronomossimon looked at Minomon with anger. Was she telling that flamedramon something she shouldn't? The missile prepared to go there and put an end to the conversaion, but Minomon's comment on Betty's hair made him back of. Turns out they were just being girls.
Joseph was staring at T and Ankh, wondering what they might be discussing and at the same time if Ankh would help in his invasion with the proper incentive. He kinda was a bit disturbed by Minomon's shouting.
"Hey Minomon, don't speak a little quieter!" Joseph yelled at her.

Vetina got her a good deal of food... but she did not touch the raw meat. Not for lack of interest, mind you. Being part Gabumon, Vetina having a taste for raw meat is not out of the question. However...
"I must inquire the time post mortem of your meats. An about time will do. Hailing from that place, domestic livestocks can procure or carry nasty invaders. I might not get struck down, but neither will I bus around as a vector. Hmmm..."
As Vetina casually began to produce a few apples from her mouth, Betty was talking with the Minomon. Girly talk? About skirts? Neither of them even wore skirts. Also, getting aid from criminals like this seemed like an odd thing to do. But it was not her place to question him. However, when the Minomon finished talking...
"Damn straight my hair is gorgeous!"
After Joseph replied about her loud statement about Betty's hair, Vetina came, handing Betty a few apples. As one could see, Vetina was also looking, while still chubby, also thinner than before. Without speaking, she left Betty and Mino. The allure of raw pork was too much, allowing Vetina to freely eat that and whatever else there was.
Meanwhile, Betty handed an apple to the Minomon. "If anything, Vetina makes some damn fine fruits and veggies. I'm sure she'd like you to try one."

Don T then explained about how he got the meats. From Human world. And the business was a bit... interesting. He could have power anyway he wanted, and he could subjugate even the strong ones. However, the bird stayed true to his skepticism, as he didn't afford to fall into a trap anymore.
"So, these meats were... imported? I see it now." Ankh commented as he took another piece of meat and grilled it with his fire from right hand, before chowing on it. "While your deal sounds interesting, I have to see what was in the deal. Details, and such. You know, I've been tricked by a swindler imposing as a scourge I'm always "subscribing".
The plant Digimon then ate the raw meat before she... threw up apples. Those looked so delicious, and it was a fortune to him that he could eat more foods. All and while Vetina became slightly slimmer. "That's just perfect." Ankh said as he took one of the apples and ate it. It was sweet and delicious. Maybe she could give them some food stocks. He then looked at Minomon and Betty having... girly talk. It reminded him to a certain Digimon he had met before.
"Ayaka..." Ankh muttered the Digimon's name, with his face blushed and sighed a bit... heavily. Was he in love with said Digimon?
Back with T's deals, he was still trying to negotiate them. Traps were something he would prefer to avoid. "Say, if you were baited into a trap, what would you do? And what would you do if you want to set a trap on those who wanted to trick you?" Ankh asked as he burned another meat.
