Sinking, sinking and sinking, she felt her body submerged within foul, cold sea water. Her legs missing, her arms missing, even her eyes and her sense of hearing missing. She was nothing but a beating heart, a beating heart that seem to pulsating way too hard, way too stubbornly for a disembodied organ. Yet at the same time, it keeps beating, and beating, and beating.
"...Ah... I wonder what's this..." she muttered absentmindedly. Above there are the light that she wished to grasp. But with no hand, no legs to kick up, how could she resurface herself? Impossible. She can't just drift alone and hoped for any current to raise her up there... For now... it's just something akin to a faraway dream.
Ah... she woke up for real this time around. it was so early in the morning... but where is she? She swore she slept in her room. She swore she was sleeping so peacefully on the warm mattress... yet for some reason here she is at the bench? What time is it? She groggily tried to find the clock that usually here. Ah... it's six in the morning. Her pyjama still on her body, which meant... could it be that she's kidnapped?
...No, that's impossible. Why is she not tied up or locked then? Her phone, her wallet... of course it's not here. She has put it somewhere else before she slept. That means... Oh dear... she really had no idea if there is some way she could go home... worse, it's far away from here to home... Did she really sleepwalked here? Or is there is something else? She had no idea, but... she doesn't like this...
"...I need to go home," she whispered to herself.
...But how?

It's been three days since Bloom came to Miyu's life and as for now bothe have a great chemistry, the girl thought that having a Digimon could really affect her life, although deep inside she wants to explore the digital world she has to wait for the little plant to grow, until then having a "Normal" life doesn't sound that bad, with that in mind since yesterday both are waking up early and coming to the park to have a session of meditation or taichi, to free the mind and relax the body so they can start the day with all positive energies.
"I feel something..." Said the little bulb digimon
"That means it's working, we're releasing all the bad and negative thoughts of our mind and body so..."
"No, not that! It's like another presence... I can't exactly put into words... Maybe it's another digimon" Bloom climb up to her pot and buried herself to disguise as a simple potted plant and ask Miyu to walk a little in the park, maybe that way she would know where that presence is commming
The chinese girl obey (there was no point in arguing) and picked the "potted plant" to start a little stroll for the Mayashita park, it didn't take long until they spot a girl resting on a bench, she looked confused like something was wrong, Bloom confirmed that the presence was closer maybe the girl was a tamer or there was a Digimon after her, either way Miyu couldn't let the girl alone seeing how confuse she was, she walked towards the bench and with a warm smile said
"Good morning! Uhm... Are you OK? You seem lost, is there something I can do to help you? Not the best way to introduce herslef, but given that her first meeting was bumping into someone else this was a better "introduction"

Not again...
A young girl was running through Tokyo's streets, almost as if her life depended on it. Jeez, this is why she had been opposed to them sleeping in different rooms and all that "maturing" crap their parents had put them through as of late. Were they so blind to not to see that? Sometimes, adults were just dumb...
Her steps quickened after crossing the street that leads to Miyashita Park. Why was she there? She didn't know exactly, but she had this hunch about Hitomi being here. Call it sisterly bond, or just foolishness, but the feeling about her sister being somewhere in this place was almost painful. And her instinct had never failed her before, so at the very least she expected to get a fair clue on where she was.
"Hitomi-nee~!" She called out, probably louder than what she should at this time of the morning. "Ane~ki~! Are you out there!?"
There mere thought of losing her again was painful; unbearable even.

Ah, footsteps... She heard footsteps. How...? Ah, just a morning jogger? But why is she carrying a potted plant? How curious. The black haired girl in pajama bowed slowly, half in confusion and half because it's just her habit. "He-hello, pleasure to meet you. Hitomi... is what I am called. Um... Yes, I..."
...Probably asking about if she have some money to spare for Taxi doesn't sound good at all. It's Japan, taxi is ungodly expensive. Plus this is like... seriously just how far is this from home again? She honestly wanted to ask if she could borrow her Suica card instead but... argh, too many things to ask and it all boils down to how annoyed she is because she can't possibly repay the person unless she have some contact number or something. At that point, she saw something that caught her interest.
She looked at the potted plant. It's not a cactus. What a pity. She loves cacti so much. "...It's rare to see someone doing a morning jog with a potted plant. Is there is a plant fair nearby? Or maybe just a florist that open at this early?" she curiously asked.
...She was going ask more but suddenly she heard someone calling her. That voice.
"Ah, Iyo..."
Perhaps still from daze, Hitomi could do nothing but to wave at her sister, calling her over.

Sho sat underneath the speckled shade of a tree, leaning back against the trunk and breathing in nature. Having the words of the book in his hand zip through his head for the millionth time was as relaxing as ever, and perhaps, unfortunately, that was the only kind of feeling he could get from the well-read books that filled the bag. That along with some water, and the device he'd gotten on that rainy night not so long ago.
No.
He'd put that out of his mind for now. It was time to relax, and it was too early for any hard thought anyway...For now, he could continue to read, ignoring what sounded like a reunion from the bench in front of him. If he was going to distract himself from his own questions, he might as well look at those around him. He couldn't help but stare at others anyway, after all, the skill of observation was always key to him...
"So...what can I see in these people..." Sho whispered within his mind trying to figure out what was the story behind a girl with a potted plant and a pair of sisters meeting up. Wait...a potted plant? How novel. Novel enough to never be seen outside of novels, that's for sure.
The eyes behind that book of his begged to answer the question; Why bring a potted plant to a park?

Miyu still didn't know all the japanese customs, she was still new to the country and city after all, she introduce herself doing a small bow too. "My name is Feng, Miyu Feng and pleasure is mine!" after the introductionS were made, Hitomi started asking about the potted plant... Now Carrying Tanemon this way doesn't sound like a good idea, one day the "I just bought it" excuse is going to stop working.
"Oh don't mind this plant, just bought it" She laughed nervously.
Luckily it seems that a relative was close, she wave her hand to the other girl who surprisingly was almost identical to Hitomi, probably they were twins. "Well seems you find your sister I think this makes things more easier, is there anyway I can help?" She asked, after all the twins seemed a little younger not even around 15 years, it didn't sounded wise to leave them just like that
"Psssst... Psssst!" Tanemon tried to call the attention of her tamer without being discovered, yet if someone looks a little closer will see the eyes of small digimon
The chinese girl just shaked the pot so the sprout would be quite, now it's not the moment specially when there are two girls in front that can spot her.

Oh, there she was; Iyo herself wouldn't stop until she completely closed the distance that separated. Once that was taken care of, there was first a sigh of relief and then several seconds of ragged breaths as the girl's burning lungs regained a semblance of normalcy. That had been quite the sprint, hadn't it?
Inhale, exhale, look up. There she was, her sister, currently in the company of another person; it took her some seconds to gauge that they were on friendly terms with each other and thus, for her expression to become more calm and relaxed. "Nee-chan." Iyo's tone was incredibly moved, almost bordering tears. "I'm so glad you're alright. I was so worried."
She then proceeded to embrace Hitomi affectionately, and for... quite a while. Almost as if that were a way for her to release all the pent-up stress that she had felt during this small search. Once that was over, however, she decided to give the other girl present a thorough look; it wasn't hard to guess that she was a foreigner, and that maybe she had been asset thus far.
"Who's your new friend?" She added, with a small smile on her face. "She looks like an interesting person, even if... a potted plant a Saturday in a morning like this...? What's the deal with it?"
Well, that had sounded pretty rude, even if it mostly had been outta curiosity. Was she repeating something already asked? She didn't know, but still; the curiosity was too great!

Just... bought it? After morning jog? Hitomi looks a bit suspicious. But either way, she figured out that it's a bit rude to somehow ask someone their choice of action to buy a potted plant so early in the morning. Who knows, it might be related to a gift, or something for a bereaved. But either way, there's one thing that she won't shy away from asking. The plant never really registered in her mind. Is that a plumule? But that's a bit too huge for one... or the plant itself is huge?
"...If you don't mind me asking, what sort of plant species is this?" she asked, her curiosity unstoppable.
Still, that question have to be interrupted when Iyo approached and hugged her. She honestly felt a bit guilty for somehow ending up here for unknown reason. Sleepwalking aside, this is WAY TOO FAR from their house. "I'm sorry Iyo... I have no idea what happened either..."
Who's the new friend? "Ah, this is... Miyu-san. Feng Miyu. Miyu-san, this is my sister, Irie Iyo. As you can see, we're twins---Iyo!" Geez her sister always been the very frank one. Yes, it's suspicious, but it's a bit rude! Hitomi cannot help but to scold her.
"I'm sorry, she didn't mean harm. She's just naturally very curious."

It must've been the shaking. Before, he could've sworn that he saw slits and folds in the potted plant, but once it shook he could recognize them as eyes. He jolted to stand up against the same tree he was reading under, narrowing his eyes that were widened by the discovery.
Sho couldn't remember the last time he saw a plant with eyes, such a species, with eyes shaped like that...Eyes shaped like the ones he could see out of were not like those on Earth. But while he was making leaps and bounds in logic, he stopped to check only the facts, shaking his head. Miyu and the plant were separate yet he and Tukaimon were one, there must be a reason for that. And as he began to pace, he could barely contain the beat of his heart. It was if he was cracking the book on this wide open!
Sho swept the hair aside from his glasses and affixed them from where they were sliding down on his nose. The only real way to find out was with a different kind of observation. He rummaged through his bag to find his own strange device and looked up and around himself, trying to concoct an approach...he could probably just act completely aloof with these people. They were cheery enough and could probably dump information on him about it. Even if he thought that Miyu herself may also be a bit inexperienced if she was brash enough to bring an entire creature out here...
Before long, a boy walked out from behind the bench, holding a hand sized device his eyes wouldn't part with. His dress shoes would clack lightly as he walked by, even as he took too short of a turn and ended up bumping into Miyu. He broke his focus and looked up, bowing slightly as his mouth began to stammer. "Ah, er-, s-sorry about that." He bowed slightly letting his thoughts flow through again..."Maybe this plan'll work..."

Yeah... Definetly the idea of carrying Tanemon as a normal potted plant didn't seem good anymore, specially because she knows next to nothing about plants...The chinese girl thought for a couple of seconds for an answer that wouldn't bring anymore questions and suddenly a good idea came to her mind, probably will bring back a couple of questions but she probably will handle it better.
"This is a special type of plant that grows on China where I used to live, it seems big but trust me doesn't grow that much and its leaves can be used to make a special tea known as "Xi Hu Longjing" which roughly translates to "Dragon's Well" supposedly it helps open the chakra channels in our body" Just throw a big info dump about a bunch of Chinese things that two little girls wont really want to investigate, easy and simple way out of any situation
With that out of the way the girl could try and get back to her "routine" and speak to Bloom to see what she wanted, suddenly a guy bumped into her, Miyu didn't mind much after all she met her first friend that way.
"Oh, no, it's OK don't worry about it" She smiled

Miyu. "That's a pretty name! I like it!" And, just like that, Iyo had forgotten her previous hostility towards the older girl; of course she didn't see the issue on her question being rude or incisive; it was just a question, after all! Those wouldn't offend anyone, would they?
Not like she could take her sister scolding her seriously, anyway; at most, she ignored her words and kept smiling at the foreigner. She gazed with curiosity at the plant that Miyu had brought, and seemed to be pretty excited at looking at something that was more or less unknown. Those were the most exciting kind of things, weren't they? Stuff like that's what made life interesting, but...
There was a little detail that made her even more curious! The plant had been introduced, yes, but its species haven't been specified; that made Iyo stare at her sister, eyes wide open in excitement. "A~ne~ki. Do you know what kind of plant that is? You're very smart about plantstuff, so you know its name, right? I didn't understand the whole deal about chakra and stuff, but it seems interesting!"
Iyo was slightly weirded out at the appearance of a new person, but, at least at plain sight, he seemed like a nice person. Oh well; she guessed they could spend some more time with these strangers before getting Hitomi back home.
Sounded like a plan...

...Tea? When you only have two leaves? Hitomi honestly never seen any plants like this. It only made her curiosity bigger by seconds. It... doesn't have a terminal bud or apical bud. How could it regenerate? That's just... silly, especially considering that this would be boiled into a tea... which part is boiled? Its roots? Its leaves? If it's the roots, then why not buying in bulk instead? Her face had this big question mark written across it.
"...I'm sorry Iyo, I have no idea really..."
...This is not something that she can take at face value. She have seen a lot of plants, but even Aloe vera like plant aren't this... mysterious. The blue haired girl kept staring at the plant. As much as she want to say is this really a plant for a tea? she cannot simply accuses the girl of that. "...This is the first time I see a plant like this. It doesn't have any apical or terminal bud. Doesn't looks like it also the type that grows with rhizomes..."
...Though chakra channel... this is getting a bit confusing. Zen stuff is not her specialty, and she'd rather shut up about them.
...Although, the appearance of the guy is a bit... strange. Hitomi instinctively pulled Iyo closer to her. A big sister's instinct? The girl thought that it's normal for her to be protective of her sister though. Something just felt... wrong for some reason.
"...Hello," was only what she said to the new guy.

Sho stepped back from Miyu, still holding his device near his hip as he chuckled and put on a bashful smile to accompany his nerve-racking chuckle. He scratched the back of his head, unable to keep his eyes off the strange plant until he looked back at the Chinese girl holding it.
Clearing his throat, and his mind, he spoke a simple "Hello. I'm Sho Tsuginaga..." towards the other three before fixing his elliptical glasses from the bump. "I'm actually quite interested in tea plants myself, read a couple books on it. Even if I'm more of a coffee person, I like being an avid researcher." Sho explained with the all the pomp of a timid mouse.
While the thought of competition where he used these facts gave him fond memories, he paused to think about why he just said it in front of someone his suspicions laid upon. Sho didn't want to scare her away at all...Maybe a topic change was in order, none of them were very familiar with the boy who just bumped into the conversation anyway. "Been to competitions about trivia and other random knowledge like that, plus I can't seem to keep myself away from a book." He continued, tapping his chin.
"Hmm, I think she's right though..." Sho points towards Hitomi, putting on a quickly mastered inquisitive expression towards Miyu, trying to find some way that he could talk more about these creatures. Navigating such a quaint scenario wasn't something that often got his heart beating, but seeing as he was so close to one of the things he, well, was for even a brief moment, the excitement was hard to contain.
"The Dragonwell leaves I know come from a certain western shrub, but if this plant could create the same tea, I'd love to know where it came from." Said he, a bit too eagerly.

Oh for the love of... Why did she has to met precisely a two people that know about plants, even with the excuse of being a plant from China that can make a tea Miyu could felt her back against a wall, the fact that Sho introduce himself as someone that was interested in tea plants and knew about the Dragon's Well tea didn't help... On a moment like this there was only one way to get out.... CHANGE THE SUBJECT!
"OK I'll be honest besides what I just side, I don't know that much about this plant, my brother had it back in China and I just wanted something to remind me of my home while I'm here on japan... Now can we please stop focusing on the totally normal plant for a second and help Hitomi and Iyo to go back safely to their home?" That seemed like the best way to cut this topic before something goes wrong and Tanemon gets exposed
Something did call the attention of the Chinese girl and was the device Sho was holding, she couldn't really see it but for some reason made her think he was holding a little bigger version of the D-3 digivice she had, could he be also a tamer?

Iyo brought a finger to her chin, a pensive expression taking over her features. "Hitomi-nee doesn't know what kinda plant that is?" She seemed to process the words, almost as if they were said in some kind of foreign language. "Wait, really? How's that even possible? Hitomi-nee knows everything about every plant, period!"
Her gaze no bore onto Miyu. Intensely. "You are cheating. Someway; there's no way for aneki to not know what kind of plant that is. Explain what's up!"
So intense was her gaze and her need for logic (at least what she regarded as logic) to be applied to the situation at hand that she had mostly ignored Sho until Miyu gave an explanation. And while Iyo herself didn't believe all that much on it, at least it was better than nothing, she guessed.
Now, the question was... what to do about this development? The teenager looked at Hitomi, as if silently asking her what she wanted to do about the situation at hand; she probably was tired, given the time of the morning, and the fact that she was randomly in this place probably meant that she wanted to go back home but... those were all assumptions.
They were close enough to exchange their disposition with a gaze, so it wasn't like she needed to speak, either. That was nice.
