When they first arrived at Miyashita Park, Trey, Bulk and Skull found the nearest available tree to sit under which was furthest away from any humans as possible. Trey had packed a variety of foods in his backpack for the three of them to eat but within the first twenty minutes of them being there, a majority of the food had been eaten by Bulk, the Koromon. Trey spent this time probing Skull, the Tsunomon about various questions he had on his mind. Some of the questions were ones like 'where are you from?' or 'are all Digimon good?' and of course, Skull answered them truthfully.
They had been there for only an hour and it was quite enjoyable just lying under the tree in the park, the sounds of children in the distance playing could be heard and while Skull was happy to relax with Trey, Bulk was eager to do something. "Lets go play." The pink Digimon said to his brother. "No." The horned Digimon responded. "Come on Skull... Play Play!" Skull looked at his brother and frowned. "No, no!" The little pink Digimon looked to his brother and then to Trey who was just watching them contently. He had to wonder though, how a pink Digimon with long ears and a fury Digimon with a horn on its head played... It had to be somewhat dangerous, right?
Trey sat forward in his position and looked at the little Koromon before looking back at the Tsunomon. "Why don't we have one round of games... What do you want to play? Hide and Seek?" Bulk's eyes lit up in excited and he began bouncing up and down. "Yeah, yeah!" Skull rolled his eyes but never the less, joined in. "Bulk, you were the one who wanted to play so you are 'it' first." With that said, both the Tsunomon and Trey ran off to hide while the Koromon began to count. "One, two, three, four, five, nine, one hundred and three, six, eleven, forty-two, ninety-nine. Fifty!!! Ready or not, here I come!"

It was an inevitable outcome, in all honesty. Yuu was both overworked and stressed; running through the daily activities of what was pretty much a growing company was tiresome, and while she was happy at the steady progress that her small organization was going through, she was sent... on a forced vacation, by no more and no less than her partner. "Given that you can't get a proper free day on the Digital World, try the Human World!" Kyo had said. "You'll have lots of fun, I'm sure of it!"
Now, she had argued that nobody was there to take her position as the temporary leader while she was away; inexplicably, both Ryouta, Koharu and Gladius had disappeared without leaving a trace, and she wasn't giving Colin that big of a responsibility just yet, so... once again, her partner had come up with a brilliant idea. "I'll do it for you! I mean, how hard can that be? I'm sure I'll be even a better boss than you!"
Her first action as temporary leader was to assign Akira as "temporary bodyguard" and send her to the human world. The mute teen was sure that she'd just make sure that she didn't get any funny ideas like coming back or something, and that'd made just internally curse. Clever girl...
So, that's how the human and the holosuited digimon found themselves in the midst of a quiet stroll through Miyashita park. She hated to admit it, but... it was relaxing. "Enjoying yourself?" Of course that Akira was grinning smugly. The little devil...
["Yes. Maybe this wasn't... that bad of an idea. God knows when was the last time I've been there, for sure."]
"I'm glad. Kyo will be happy to hear about that when we—" Suddenly, she stopped on her tracks, holding Yuu's advance with one hand. "There are digimons in here. Their presence is kinda faint, but... wonder what are they up to..."
["Here, in the park? Guess that things couldn't be perfect. Let's check that out; with any luck, they aren't feral."] The duo went ahead, searching for any of those presences, until... they stumbled with a small Koromon. Now, what to do?
"Um... hi." Akira said, slowly drawing closer. "Are you here on your own?"

As soon as Bulk began to count and covered his eyes with his ears, Trey immediately ran off and over to the nearest shrub. He wasn't going to go hide too far away as the last thing he wanted was for something to happen to either of his Digimon partners while he was hiding at the opposite side of the park. That is why he chose to keep it within the surrounding area. He ducked down behind a shrub not too far from the open area and tree that the little Koromon was at. When he poked his head over, he could still see the little pink Digimon counting by the tree while the other Digimon, Skull bounced off in the opposite direction to hide behind a fountain structure. He too chose to poke around to see his brother counting in a safe distance. Trey took note of the situation, making sure that he should teach the little Koromon how to count properly.
Bulk who had only just finished counting (if you could call it that) flinched lightly and slowly turned around stiffly when he heard a voice speaking to him. At first he thought he was imagining it, who you come approaching a Digimon with such ease in a world like this? When Bulk had completely turned to face who was speaking to him. His eyes narrowed on two figures. Two human girls, only one of them wasn't a human, but a Digimon. He could sniff the scent of the Digimon within the air and with this scent, Bulk bounced back lightly to keep some distance between them. "N-no." The little Koromon responded. "I-I am here with my much bigger, stronger, mega level brother." He stated hesitantly in hopes to deter the two from here. He had no idea what they wanted but if Koromon knew anything of growing up in the Digital World, it was that the 'strongest were always the fittest'.
At this moment, Skull poked around the corner from the fountain and saw Koromon talking to two humans... This was bad and knowing this, Skull immediately began bouncing over to his brother's side. It was when he reached the side of his brother that the little Tsunomon realized that one of the humans was actually a Digimon and although he and his brother were almost complete opposites, Bulk and Skull both knew not to try and start fights. Bulk, who was a little surprised by his brother's arrival began to make another story. "T-this is my other brother. How mega level brother is not far, watching us so don't take another step." He stated with hesitation still within his voice. Skull couldn't help look at his brother and all he wanted to do was hit him. "A Mega Level Brother?" Skull whispered to Bulk, as if his ears were deceiving him. The Koromon simply nodded.
Trey was still nearby, hiding behind the shrub, unaware of the situation that was taking place not too far from him.

The situation was a bit... strange, that was for sure. Neither Akira nor Yuu were the most emphatic beings around, but... looking at the Koromon's body language and sudden stuttering, the two concluded on two things; one was that he was scared, and the other that his claims weren't entirely truthful.
"There, there. I won't harm you, so there's no need to be nervous." Akira spoke in a soft tone, crouching until she was almost at eye level with the baby digimon. "We're just concerned about you."
The disguised digimon was better at this than what she had thought, Yuu had to admit. Maybe babies brought out her softer side; in any case, they had take care of him. How they would depended on what they found out about him. ["Wonder if this digimon's alone or if he's partnered with a human. So far, he's only talked about a brother of sorts..."]
"Beats me." Akira shrugged, at least until... now a Tsunomon came into her line of sight and began to talk with the Koromon. "Oh! So this was the brother you were talking about? He's cute! And... you say there are more over here? Care to show me?"
If anything, getting to find all the digimons that were in the park would save them any potential unpleasant surprise. "Maybe this'll sound a little weird, but... are you guys on your own? Or do you have a human accompanying you? If so... we'd like to talk with him."
After all, if these two are babies, if there was a human a human in charge of them, that must mean that the person must be pretty new to the whole digimon thing. Some warnings would probably be in order if that was the case.

Although the Digimon/Human stated that she wasn't going to hurt him, Bulk wasn't exactly going to go and believe everyone who said that, no matter how convincing they may sound. He was fresh in the Human World, he had only been here for two days and things were all new to him, there was so much he didn't know or understand but one thing was for certain was that usually, in the Digital World, if you meet another Digimon, it meant that there was going to be a fight.
Bulk was feeling a little safer with Tsunomon there, even though they were both at the In-Training level. Skull was the brains for the two, he was far more intelligent and generally good with words that could get them out of tough situations. However, even with the pleasantness of having his brother there with him, he didn't think this was something Skull could so easily get them out of... Skull was thinking the exact same thing. At first, Bulk and Skull didn't want to say anything about their human partner and although Bulk had no idea where his human partner was hiding, Skull knew exactly where Trey was hiding and it wasn't the greatest vote of confidence when you have a grown male hiding behind a shrub...
The Digimon/Human asked to speak to their human and although they were reluctant at first, Skull was the first one to speak. "And what is it that you want with our human partner?" He asked in a firm tone. Sure, the two standing across from him were definitely bigger and likely stronger, but it was his duty to keep his Tamer safe. "Anything you wish to speak to our Tamer about can be directed to me... I will pass on the message." Skull continued, glaring at the both of them in front of him. Sure, he shouldn't be picking any fights and that wasn't his intention either. He was simply making a firm statement so that the two opposing understood their position.
Meanwhile, Trey was still crouched down behind the shrub in silence, he couldn't hear anything going on and was just waiting until he was found, though he was getting a little fidgety just waiting. It felt like it had been some time since the little Koromon had started counting.

A tough nut to crack, huh? If Akira had been another digimon, she'd probably have lost the patience by now. Luckily... she knew how to behave in a situation like. Now, she just had to hope these would begin to listen soon enough. Guess that going through with the facts was the only way they could solve this.
So, with a deep sigh, she took seat on the soft grass, her gaze maintained on the two In-Trainings all long. "I'll cut to the chase. For starters, I want to see if you actually got one. You might not be acquainted with how this world works, and I won't bother with a long explanation, so let's just say that Digimon are kind of a secret in here, and that it's in our best wishes for things to remain like that. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind you guys having fun in the park, but you might imagine that's... not the best way to keep appearances with your current forms. We might be getting gazes right now, and that... won't collaborate much with the secret, right?"
Spoiling some babies' fun wasn't the plans she had for today, that was for sure. Still... "So, if you have a human accompanying you, We'd like to talk him about the importance of keeping appearances from humans who don't know what digimons are. And if you don't, well... we're obligated to take care of you two until we can return you to the world where you belong."
Her tone was even, with no threats and trying to be as diplomatic as possible. Still, the truth was the truth, and trying to sugarcoat it would probably result on them losing more time, and on the possibility of attracting the unwanted gazes. Hopefully this time would be enough. Too much time had already been lost.

As the Digimon/Human sat down on the grass in front of them, both Bulk and Skull bounced lightly back, only a few centimeters to accommodate for the larger being, giving themselves enough room between each other. Though it kind of felt a little like a staring competition. Bulk and Skull continued to stare at the unknown beings while the others did the same in return. The fact that one of them chose to sit down in front of them made it feel like it was some kind of old country western shoot off... If Bulk and Skull actually knew what that was.
As soon as the Digimon/Human began speaking, Bulk and Skull listened carefully to take in what it had to say, Skull took in more information than Bulk of course. They had to agree in the respect of that they had no idea how this world worked, it seemed similar to the Digital World but then there were things that were completely different. Bulk chose to remain quiet but never taking his gaze off of the one in front of them, it was Skull who chose to spoke, believing that on some kind of level, his intelligence was matched with the one in front of them. "I understand what you are saying and to be honest, we honestly just didn't think of it." He looked to his brother beside him for a moment before turning back to the one in front of them. "I will be just a moment."
With that said, the little Tsunomon began bouncing off towards a large group of shrubs where his Tamer was hiding. "He was hiding there?" the little Koromon said to himself before realizing that he was now left alone with the strangers. He turned his gaze back on them and chuckled lightly, finding humor in his unfortunate situation. They still could attack him at any moment, but a part of him didn't think it would be likely and that they were just trying to keep the 'Digimon Secret', still a secret. One thing that seemed to linger in Bulk's mind however, was the mention of having to return Bulk and Skull to the world they belonged... Could they actually do that? It was only their second day in the Human World and he and his brother never once considered returning to the Digital World.
Skull bounced around until he reached the shrub that Trey was hiding behind, stopping directly in front of him. "W-hat? Skull... You are meant to be hiding! You are going to lead him straight to me." He stated, trying to duck a little lower behind the shrub. "Forget that." The little Tsunomon stated firmly. "We kind of have another issue to take care of first." Skull indicated with his eyes to the other side of the shrub and although it took a moment for Trey to catch on, he finally stood up and looked out and over the shrub, dusting his pants off. There he saw two humans looking at Bulk which instantly short a sense of fear and concern up Trey's Spine. "W-Wait!" Trey called, leaping and flopping over the shrub like spastic. For someone who was a gymnast, he had no elegance to him.
He ran over to where Bulk was with Skull right beside him, scooping the little pink Digimon up in his arms and taking a step back, not actually knowing the current situation. "I-f you were wondering, he is robotic. I made him myself." It was the first thing that came to his head so he went with it. It was at this point that Trey felt a tug at the bottom of his pants and when he looked down, the little Tsunomon was tugging at them with his mouth. "Don't bother, that one there is a Digimon." Indicating to the one in front of him. Trey looked at what he thought was a human and turned back to his Digimon, tapping him with a light kick. "Dude, that's rude." He whispered. Trey had never seen another Digimon beside his own and he assumed they were all monsters, he never expected them to be human-looking. "Can't you tell that is a human girl?" A cute one he might add if he was actually that confident. Bulk sat in his Tamer's arms, squirming in order to get out of his grip so he could join his brother's side.

Being blunt about it had... been succesful, to Akira's belief. Well, probably it had to do with the Tsunomon being way more open to dialogue than his brother. With any luck, he had gone away to fetch their partner. ["Good job, Akira. I didn't know that you could be this civil. Impressive."]
The holosuited digimon smiled with a measure of pride at the compliments. "Eh, it wasn't that hard. Just needed some tact, I guess. Kyo would've probably handled it better; I reckon she's pretty good at handling this kind of situations." Well, probably. But still, it had been a smooth work. At least compared to what Yuu thought the ToyAgumon would do.
Soon enough, a blonde teenager was brought along by the Tsunomon. That had to be... their partner, right? He looked to be as inexperienced as Yuu thought he was, and that was verified the instant he jumped in front of them, scooping the Koromon and trying in vain to justify the existence of his Digimons.
From her seat in the grass, Akira's amber eyes looked at Yuu's blues, as if waiting for a reaction at the development. And just as the ToyAgumon expected, the human rolled them. Did this newbie think they were that gullible? Not to say that he wasn't even believing his own digimon's words. This... would take a while, for sure.
"The Tsunomon's right." Akira said, finally standing up and dusting her clothes off. "But that doesn't matter right now. What's important right now is for you two to stop moving in this precise instant and to act as plushies on your partner's arms. Or on whoever's, in all honesty." Her gaze then focused on the human. "And for you to accompany us in a small walk. We have to talk about a lot of things."

Trey didn't know a great deal about the Digital World or Digimon for that matter but he did know that Bulk and Skull were a Koromon and a Tsunomon. So when Skull was referred to as a Tsunomon by the one that he had previously stated was a Digimon, Trey had a sudden realization that perhaps Skull was right, that it really was a Digimon and if so... His half-cocked idea of covering up his Digimon's existence was for naught. The Digimon stood up from her position on the ground and Trey took another step back, keeping distance between them. Although his Digimon were to protect him, Trey knew they were only babies, only having hatched the day before and believed they needed to be protected more than what he did.
Skull jumped up into the air, catching Trey by surprise and landed in his arms right beside his brother Bulk. Bulk listened to the Digimon and frowned. "No." Stating it firmly but Skull's voice of reason spoke. "Just do as she says. The last thing we need is to be sent back to the Digital World or worse... Deleted." Hearing these words, Bulk took in a deep breath and looked his brother who was simply staring back at him with a serious expression, only to respond with a nod as both turned back and turned... Still. Motionless dolls in the arms of their Tamer. Trey couldn't help but look down at his Digimon and was quite amazed at their social interaction. Trey was lucky to get two or three words out of his brother who he used to be quite close to and although it wasn't the most riveting of conversations, his two Digimon reminded him a little of the past with his brother, when he was happy.
"Talk about what exactly?" Trey asked after looking up from his Digimon and being told to follow the two humans. Although they were not overly threatening in the way they spoke or acted, he still felt like he was about to get into trouble or worse, punished but proceeded to follow them to wherever they would lead.

At least now Akira was being paid attention. That was nice; motioning to the teenager to follow her, she began to walk through one of the park's many paths, Yuu being quick to go right besides her. This wasn't her forte, so she began to sign. ["Where do we begin? I knew you wanted to do this, so... do you want me to translate? I think you're more fitting for the job."]
["If you're fine with it, sure. Be aware, though; this'll be a rather looong conversation. So being tired isn't allowed."] Of course that she had managed to sneak in a teasing remark. Maybe human and digimon weren't that different, after all.
So, as soon as the blonde boy caught up to them, Yuu began to sign, Akira quickly acting as the interpreter. "Let's... begin with the basics." She had already gone through with this a couple of times, so she guessed this time it wouldn't be overly different. "Tell me a bit about yourself; your names, how much time has passed since you've met your partners and... what do you know about digimons and the Digital World."
After all, neither of the two knew how to refer to the blonde teenager or his two partners. Even if it was obvious that they were a Koromon and a Tsunomon, that was... rather bland, wasn't it? Well, at least that's what Yuu thought. "By way, my name's Akira and she's Tsumura Yuu. Pleased to meet you three."
Details like the fact that they weren't partners or that Yuu was actually her boss were probably best left for later or to remain unmentioned altogether.

Trey caught up to the other two and took note of the girls signing to each other. At first, he thought maybe they were secretly saying something about him or maybe planning something but instead chose to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that the girl who hadn't spoken once was actually a legitimate mute. As soon as the one who had been doing all the talking spoke again, Trey was a little caught off guard and flinched a little before listening to what she had to say. "The basics?" Trey asked curiously. Bulk and Skull were still as dolls, but their was a slight twitch when the two of them locked eyes with each other when hearing this, only to regain their composure. Trey however, was starting to think that maybe he was getting himself into something he shouldn't.
"U-umm, my name is Trey." he said softly, making sure to keep up with the two girls without actually treading on their heels. "I am 17... I moved here from Australia a little over two weeks ago." He looked down at his Digimon partners. "The one with the ears is Bulk and the one with the horn is Skull." Trey, while holding his Digimon, awkwardly pulled up one of his sleeves and looked at the time on his watch before continuing to answer questions. "It has been a little over twenty-eight hours since we have met." He then began to think back to everything that Bulk and Skull had told him, trying to remember everything. "It is another world that resides along side our own. Digimon is short for Digital Monsters. There are bad Digimon and good Digimon but not everything is just black and white. I also need to make sure that their existence doesn't open up to the rest of human society."
Trey thought a little more and was fairly certain that it was pretty much everything they had told him. They hadn't really gotten the chance to talk in more detail considering his brother and parents eventually came home and that they had to remain hidden. "They didn't look like this to begin with though, Bulk was a black ball while Skull was a pink-ish red one." He stated softly, looking back down at his partners again. "I think that is everything."
Trey was rather thankful when the two girls introduced themselves and rather than responding with words, he simply bowed instead, walking and almost tripping up because he wasn't paying attention fully. "Are you really a Digimon?" He asked, indicating to one of them as he came back from bowing.

As they walked around, the blonde who'd later introduce himself as Trey began to tell the two a bit about himself and his partners. For somebody who was new as him, at least he did a good job at explaining the situation that surrounded him. As Yuu pondered on what'd be the best way to explain him some more advanced nuances of his new role, Akira just responded the question that had been asked to her. "Yup. I don't really look like this, though. There's this thing that's sold in one of the Digital World cities that makes digimon be able to disguise themselves as humans. It's pretty nifty."
Of course she wouldn't show them how she really looked just yet, but holosuits weren't really a secret to anybody who visited the Digital World at least once, so telling them wasn't much of an issue. Just as she told them that, Yuu began to sign again, Akira quickly returning to her job as an interpreter. "Well, that's pretty good for basic knowledge. Now... given that you know that digimon's aren't supposed to be known by humans, in what were you thinking when you decided to play hide and seek with them in a public park?"
Being honest with herself, she couldn't imagine any plausible reason; Trey seemed like a smart person, so... why?

Post by Katsura Ise on Mar 14, 2017 0:13:57 GMT
Katsura continued her travel within the park, in her arms she was carrying Nyao the salamon who was acting like her rag doll. Occasionally Katsura talked to Nyao forgetting that Nyao was supposed to be inanimate. Given Katsura's unique appearance and shortness, what's with being a scrawny girl in a worn schoolgirl uniform from an academy abandoned years ago, it only made bystanders assume that she was mentally insane or something. Complimenting this image of a weird girl was how cheerfully she talked almost regardless of situation. Then after a while Katsura stopped not far away from a crowd, "Well Nyao, I think it's time we get started. We do need money and food for the next days." Nyao nodded to Katsura.
Katsura spotted a businessman near a bench in the middle of a cellphone conversation, Katsura walked into him seemly in her own mind. As Katsura bombed into the man Nyao supposedly fell out of her arms and landed within the man's sight, still acting like a rag doll. "Ouch, sorry sir!" The second the man stopped paying attention to Nyao, she ran under the bench so quickly that most people in the park won't notice it. Perhaps either Yuu or Trey saw it? "Don't mention it, kiddo. Be more careful please." The man said annoyed, by then Katsura freaked out and started searching the ground around her and the business man. "My doll!" Katsura screamed making a scene that made the man part guilty and part irritated. "I call you back. If I help you find your doll will you leave me alone?" Katsura wiped her eyes and nodded as the man started looking, silently without making a move Katsura was behind him all the time. Eventually the man had found Nyao's hiding place and crawled down on fours to retrieve her.
The second the man bent over, Katsura took his wallet out of his pants in a swift hand-move nearly impossible to see with the eye and hid it in her bag. "Here's your doll, now leave me alone." Katsura overjoyed hugged Nyao and walked away wondering what to do now.

Trey was a little surprised by the mention of an item that could make Digimon disguised like humans. He couldn't help but look down at his Koromon and Tsunomon, feeling like this would be an item he would have to invest in since it wasn't exactly 'normal' for a guy to be carrying around not one, but two stuffed animal/dolls. It definitely was a convincing item considering he didn't believe the one speaking to them was a Digimon.
Trey paused for a moment and didn't say anything at first. Why did he choose to play hide and seek with his two Digimon partners knowing that humans weren't to know that Digimon existed. He went a little red in the cheeks and went to scratch the back of his head, almost dropping the Koromon out of his arms just before realizing and quickly catching the pink ball before any harm was done. He didn't have an excuse and it was clear to anyone that he was new to all this. "I-I um..." He looked down at his partner with an apologetic look upon his face. "I didn't think..." He said softly, not only to his Digimon but to himself as well, embarrassed considering he should have been smarter than that. "A-are we going to get into trouble?" Trey asked, looking up to the two women walking in front of him. Considering the possibility that there was some secret organization that punishes people who don't keep the Digimon secret a... Secret.
Trey was too focused with the situation at hand, feeling sorry for himself, his Digimon and to the women in front of him that he didn't take notice of the other things going on in the park at that time.

Well, that was surprisingly... sincere. But guess that there wasn't any other thing you could say without looking even worse, so... guess it was fine. Newbies were prone to make mistakes; Yuu sure knew about that a whole lot. Still, it wasn't like that small mistake could devolve into something objectively bad. Stuff like this probably happened on a daily basis, in all honesty. "Well, no. You're not going to get into trouble, at least in regards to the two of us. Just... be sure to begin thinking from now on."
That last sentence was said a bit teasingly, Akira smirking at it. "Seriously, though. Think about what would happen if it became public that you have two beings that can be used as weapons of mass destruction, given enough time. You're an intelligent person, so... you can guess that's why most of the people who have digimons prefer to maintain their existence hidden. You can do whatever regarding that, as long as you're mindful of the consequences, that is."
Every action had its consequences, and the mere notion of digimons being widely known by the humanity was something that'd shake the foundations of society, and probably humanity as a whole. Yuu preferred to for her life in this world to be tranquil; she already had a lot to worry about on the Digital World; adding another world seemed like too much. "Now... going back to where we were. Have you ever thought about visiting the Digital World? I guess you or your partners know how to get there... right?"
