Cole listened to Ravenna as she kinda filled him in on what happened. He'd been doing his part and then got messed up the moment he got back down here--so he frankly needed the summery. He frowned upon hearing DemiDevimon made off with the violin. "...I get the feeling this won't be the last we hear of Nero if that flying rat made off with the Violin...I think it was more then just an instrument--I think it may be part of his soul or something..." Cole would warn Ravenna after hearing this. He sighed shakily and found himself being scolded by Ravenna for his injuries. But he'd just smile, closing his eyes.
"Yeah, I tend to be a bit reckless...maybe I should really try to work on that." he'd admit, opening his eyes to look back to Ravenna with his smile. He'd blink upon seeing a crow fly up and hand the woman a towel, and she'd come up to Cole--wiping off blood from his multiple cuts. This made him blink, a small flustered expression especially when she wiped off the blood from the cut on his cheek. He just so happened to catch probably a bit more skin then she ever meant for him to see when she had leaned over, it brought a small blush to the man's face--but he tried to ignore it. "T-thank you Ravenna..." he'd say, voice a bit flustered. Tsuki started snickering as she'd walk towards the portal, turning to wait for the two humans. Ravenna asked Cole if he could walk. He'd nod, the man starting to move towards where Tsuki awaited them--but then stumbled as he was passing Ravenna. He probably shouldn't have been trying to walk so soon after being out cold...

While they were done dealing with Nero's mind games for the night, Cole mentions his suspicions and the likeliness of crossing paths with the tricksters again.
"Maybe, but I don't think Nero will be back. Maybe just as a harmless ghost that taunts people. Not sure what DemiDevimon is going to do now."
Ravenna had scolded Cole for being reckless, but he admitted to Raye that maybe she was right. Ravenna felt a little bad for bitching at him. It was quite the contrast from their initial encounter. Had they learned something about self control through this ordeal?
"I'm sorry for being assertive. I'm just worried about you and Tsuki. I'm injured too, but I can handle more in this form. My arms and legs hurt from being stretched by the shadows."
When Ravenna tended to Cole's wounds, she was unaware at how flustered she was making him. Despite of how revealing her outfit is, Ravenna didn't spend a lot of time thinking about flirting or romance. She's always been too focused on track to have time to fawn over cute guys with the other girls, and now that she is a Spirit User, she has even more priorities that come before love. Still, she is warming up to Cole as a friend. Now that Ravenna is getting to know Cole, she will be more willing to accept his aid, instead of trying to act independent and not letting a man help her up.
Now that they were safe from insane violinists, Suzamon reverts back to her Human form. Ravenna turns to Tsuki and smiles, impressed with how strong and loyal Tsuki has been tonight. Cole goes to walk, but quickly stumbles.
"Here, let me help you."
Ravenna wraps her arm around Cole's back with his arm resting on her shoulders. They manage to walk over towards the portal that takes them outside.
"I'm glad I stopped by your campfire. Who knows what would of happened if only one of us was caught by Nero?"
They limp over to the portal, hopefully never to come back to Nero's house of horrors ever again.

Cole listened to Ravenna apologize for being assertive earlier, it seemed both of them had learned a little from all this. Nero's mind games may have been torture, but it only strengthened the minds of those he toyed with. After she'd reverted back to her normal form the woman seemed to catch the man before he went down, her supporting him a bit so he wouldn't fall over. He sighed and smiled. "Thanks."
They'd make their way to the portal, and found themselves back outside, fairly close to where Cole was camping. Tsuki would lead the trio to the camp so Cole could get his Guitar he'd left propped up against a tree. Tsuki grabbed it for him, deciding to carry it since Cole had to have Ravenna's aid to walk right now. He'd look to the shorter girl supporting him. "...I seriously think after all that I wanna just go stay at an inn in town. I'll pay for another room for you to stay in if you wanna come with...not like I'm getting there under my own power right now." he'd say, jade hues lookin to Ravenna for a response. If she took up his offer they'd head back to a nearby village with an inn.

After a hellish night, the trio enters the portal and reappears outside. They walk back to the campsite to retrieve Cole's guitar and whatever else they had left behind. The campfire went out long ago, with only the light of the stars to see. Cole suggests they go to an inn and rest for the night, even offering to pay for a room for Ravenna.
"Yes, let's get to the inn and crash. I was getting tired before that creepy guy and his pet flying rat showed up. Let's get going."
In the end, Ravenna would get to spend the night indoors after all. They gathered up Cole's belongings and struggle to walk all the way to the nearest inn. Once in her room, Ravenna draws a hot bath and finally has a chance to relax. Her injuries really started to add up, but hopefully by the morning she would be feeling better. Ravenna would go on to get a good night's sleep with what was left of the night.
Before she went to her room, she thanked Cole and Tsuki for all they had done. The trio has been through quite the ordeal. Nero's mind games, the giant room, sneaking around the hall of mirrors filled with dangerous beasts, battling the Ultimate level Digimon SkullSatamon, and defeating Nero before limping over to the hotel.
Ravenna pets Tsuki on the head, then gives Cole a hug, careful not to hurt his back.
"Have a good night you too. And you can call me Raye. Only my friends get to call me that."
Once Ravenna goes to bed, it isn't long until she drifts off to sleep. Another day in the Digital World, another strange monster to defeat. The important thing is that she made some friends, learned some lessons, and made the area a safer place. Not bad for an uptown girl. ____________
