Today was a special day of sorts. Why you may ask? Because Blue was taking his steps to becoming a detective like Sora -- in a way, becoming Sora's partner. While it was hard to move around with a digimon, Blue had mastered the art of keeping himself hidden in various clothing, and a hat similar to Sora's.
Today, they had a case about some recent incidents involving some paranormal phenomenon appearing at Scramble Crossing. "So apparently there's signs of a local kind of ghost that's been appearing around here. I have reason to believe it's a person... but..."
Well, one couldn't be to careful. The paranormal was a very real thing, despite what most would lead one to believe.
"Are you sure it's not a digimon?" Blue inquires.
"This time around, I don't think so." Sora replies.

Gallatin was having a horrible day. First, his mom forgot to pack him lunch for school. It was bad enough that he had once again been alienated from every other kid in the school like every single time in every other school, but now he was lost in the middle of Shibuya with no idea how to get home. Maybe it was the fact he had recently moved here, but anime wasn't exaggerating. Every single street and alley looks the same! He was about to just use his phone and call the police when he remembered 911 didn't work in Japan...
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! I HATE JAPAN!" He yelled out in rage, yelling in English so people didn't try to find and beat him up. "Ok, Gallatin. Think." Gallatin thought to himself after finishing his tantrum. "Your lost, in Japan. In anime, what usually would happen is i run past this upcoming corner and bump into a hot girl. This is real life though..."
"Well I've tried everything else." He shrugged his shoulders before breaking into a sprint down the curved road of the generic looking alleyway. He passed house after house, finally coming onto a corner...
*CRASH*
Either being extremely lucky or just it being coincidence, Gallatin was thrown off his feet as he crashed into another person, knocking himself and them onto the ground. "YES!!!" He thought excitedly while shrugging off the pain in his head and scraped hands from the fall. He looked on to the fallen figure with a gleam in his eye... that quickly died down as a look of horror came upon them. The fallen figure wasn't a cute/shy anime girl, but in fact a grown adult man staring at him with a look that could kill. "OH SHIT! ABORT MISSION! POLITE YOUNG NERD MODE ENGAGE!" He quickly snapped back into action and jumped up from his sitting position, trying to help the man up.
"I'm s-s-s-so sorry, sir. A-a-a-are you ok? I'm really sorry sir." He stuttered out, almost being distracted by the man's earring as he helped him up to a standing position while apologizing profusely in Japanese.

Being crashed into was becoming a regular thing for Sora it seemed. Landing on his backside, Sora winces just a tad. "Sora! Are you okay?" Blue questions, approaching his tamer. "Y-Yeah. I'm fine." He gets to his feet, dusting himself off, then turning to look at the other person who had knocked into him.
"As I told my friend here, I'm fine." Soft spoken, most would think Sora was a girl with his feminine ways, but apparently not with this young man.
Switching to English, he figured it was better for right now. "I can speak English if need be." He had an accent of sorts, but his English was at least understandable. "Are you lost?"

"yeah... just a little, and thanks." Gallatin said while switching over to English while scratching his head, a ghost of a smile playing across his face. "I was going to my house in Western Shibuya, but got lost. Can you point me in the direction of Western Shibuya?" He asked, timidly. Now that he had gotten a better look, the man seemed less threatening. In fact, he actually looked very kind. Gallatin had been in the city for only 2 weeks, so maybe commuting to and from school alone hadn't been the best idea. He dusted himself and waited patiently while the man dusted himself off.

"Western Shibuya?" Hmm... he was familiar with the Shibuya area as a whole, being his office was nearby and all that, but would he be able to help this guy get home? "It's over in that direction. A few blocks down, make a left, and you're pretty much there." He instructed, his hands doing gestures as he does so.
At that, he cleared his throat awkwardly. "Um... maybe I should just show you physically." Tokyo was a big place, and Shibuya was no different.

"Oh, that'll be fine. I can find my way now." He spoke, not wanting to inconvenience anybody. If he was going to be living in this place for the next year or two, he'd have to get familiar with making his way around the city. "Thank you for the help though, sir." With that, Gallatin quickly started running towards the direction the man stated. He waved back at him to signal he was leaving.
After a minute or so, he came across a road that branched around what looked like a forest in the middle of the city. He could keep following the road, but it'd take considerably longer for him to get home than if he just went straight through the forest. "Hmm. I'll take my chances with the forest." He decided; besides, what's the worse that could happen. He'd get attacked by a tiny fluffy bunny?
With that, he continued on straight into the foliage and the Shibuki Forest...

Sora could only watch as the boy decided that he would pursue this endeavor on his own. Rubbing at his neck awkwardly, a sigh was released from the young detective. "Shall we continue our investigat---" He was cut off when Blue turned his direction in that of where the boy had disappeared.
"Blue?"
"Something just doesn't feel right. Maybe it's the fact this whole area has a odd sensation about it." Blue admits.
"Hmm... well we could follow, but we would technically be seen as stalkers." Sora replies.
"... let's just do it. If a kid ends up dead when we had a chance to stop it, then what kind of detectives would we be?" Blue asks.
"Good point."
About that time, Blue takes off with Sora following in the direction of the boy -- just as a means of checking up to make sure he was okay.
