The renamon rubbed her neck awkwardly; she wasn't sure why he would have to give up so much for the egg itself initially but after thinking it through a bit she knew that if she had the inns till she would of made the same decision. She knew that Canton would of wanted to run it while she took care of a child. There was a soft but mighty sigh and she'd dip her head in a small nod.
"I suppose yes. The bustle of the city does take some time to get used to, but it seems I won't be getting used to it if you're moving elsewhere with our... child?"
K's face slowly started to turn red as she realized what she had said; exhaling softly and rather grateful for the small break she was given while finding the egg. It felt weird to hold; it felt like she was holding another life in her hands. Something that she could tell was once a part of her was now something else. She looked down at the egg once the Swanmon started talking. She'd gingerly followed the swanmon's guiding hand and exhaled slowly. She wasn't sure how this was going to go but lord did it mean a lot to her.
"You can tell? And a box? That... that sounds like a good idea considering how far we're traveling..."
There was a soft exhalation and she'd shoot mikemon a small smile before following after the swanmon....
Another ten or so minutes later she was sitting there nervously; her eyes firmly staring at the box. Was she going to be a good enough parent that she wouldn't mess up this poor child? She didn't know a thing about raising children, she knew about how to placate them while in the care of her inn but that didn't dictate how to raise them properly.
The comfort that the doctor provided made this a little bit easier for her, she knew she wasn't alone in this and that the mikemon probably was the safest person to have a child with someone who could support the individual that was within the egg without a doubt. Hell if it wasn't for them she would of been toast after all! Not that that was the reason for all of this happening; she didn't feel indebted so much as she was just grateful to have someone so caring.
Her ear flicked as the mikemon was addressed by the train. A phone call for him? She'd dip her head in a nod and turned her head to look out of the window as the doctor got up to go to the line. Her ear flicked and she'd blink, slowly and certainly did she place the box on the seat. Giving it a soft look before coming over. Giving a small smile to the mikemon before taking the phone. She never really did use these things before, but following the mikemon's example she'd put it to her ear and speak calmly into it.
"Hello? This is K."

"Oh, of course I can tell!" The Swanmon gave a chuckle, her tone suggesting it was a common thing - but really, this Swanmon had her own training as a data sensor. Considering everything else that happened, it was only natural - why let a single mistake happen when they had the means to prevent it?
Thankfully, that didn't sour the mood, and the two would soon be on their way...
... To receiving a mysterious phone call on the train ride back? Mikemon didn't think much of it at the time, simply moving to watch the egg while K stepped away. Over the other end of the line, as K spoke, there would be a few seconds of silence on the other end, just a faint static buzzing in - or, maybe that's what she would hear at a glance. But, if she tried to listen, she'd hear a very, very familiar sound:
The scratch of a pen, on rough paper. A thousand times over, bristling right in K's ear. Soon after, that familiar, playful voice would echo through the received. "Keep looking forward, dear Renamon. And my, I must say, congratulations." That familiar voice chuckled. "I want to talk. Take the phone into the next car up, sit down, and listen. Oh, my, though, its been such a long time!"

Honestly it wasn't a surprise to learn that the swanmon could tell what was what and who belonged to who. With a nod the renamon wouldn't really address that. She'd give a small smile before they left; grateful at the help that the swanmon provided.
K flicked her ear a little bit and raised her brow as there was nothing but silence for a few seconds before that buzzing started. She was gifted with a few moments of passive annoyance before her own senses betrayed her to curiosity. The sound that she was greeted with was one that she firmly recognized; one that caused her eyes to dilate rapidly and she almost ended up crushing the phone in her grip were it not for the sheer amount of control she was able to manage.
She felt her throat go dry and the renamon shifted awkwardly though she kept herself looking forward as instructed. This was a dangerous individual on the other side of the phone; one that she didn't even know how to properly deal with. The last time they had interacted was so long ago that she had almost forgotten about them.
"Thank you."
The renamon flicked her ears, there was a bit of irritation in her voice as she had to make it seem like a normal phone call as she didn't want to worry the mikemon. Furrowing her brow she'd dip her head in a small nod and gesture to the mikemon that she was going into the other car. Privacy was often needed between them after all; there was little bits that they didn't share and she honestly shouldn't here. Besides if he knew who or what was on the line he might have a problem with it; though realistically she had the option of hanging up but that would just end poorly.
So she simply did as she was told going into the next car up, taking a seat and keeping that phone to her ear. The irritation plain on her face for a few seconds before it eased off.
"I didn't expect to ever hear from you again."

For the moment, Mikemon wasn't too concerned about K's call - not because he brushed off the Renamon's reaction, but simply because he didn't see her. No, his attention was on the egg, a soft smile still on his expression - and as K motioned that she was moving to the next car, all the Doctor did was give her a nod and a wave.
As K settled down in the next car, the voice spoke up again: "Mm, to tell you the truth, I was getting worried that I wouldn't have a reason to talk to you. See," K would hear a chuckle, "in reading those passages you left in my book, I noticed you were quite the interesting specimen. If I stuck around the camp, and they read my book, chances are you would have never been able to leave at all. But at the same time, it was a question of if the three spirits that you held would ever see the light of day."
So he was an opportunist? He didn't leave K much time to respond: "But surprise surprise, you've exceeded what I thought you would handle. Jesmon's own apostle and a crusader on a mission! Oh, but wouldn't it be such a shame if GraceNovamon were to, shall we say, get a few hints?"
He simply let that thought hang in the air. "But its to no advantage to me one way or the other what happens to you. So let's make a deal - follow my instructions, and I'll be sure to keep things out of your hair. Sound good?"

K flicked her ear and quietly listened to what the wisemon had to say. She'd grit her teeth a little bit as he certainly made efforts to make this seem pleasant and seem like he was talking to her out of niceties. Making it seem like he initially had 'saved' her from some ill fate by making sure that the angels hadn't read the book at the time. She could of seen her history change if they had. She would of been drafted into service, trained, forced to work for them in such a time until her 'true' form was unlocked.
She wanted to say something to that but the mon didn't leave her time to really do so. Instead she was cut off before she could even get started. She felt her blood run cold as he made the insinuation that he would give GraceNovamon some hints about her or about what she held dear. She thought about it for a few moments and felt that anger set in. The anger that was familiar to her cresgarurumon.
Then there it was, the deal that he came here to make. That it wasn't an advantage to him if GraceNovamon was the one to get to her; or if it was she that got at the Super Mega. She'd grit her teeth a little bit and think everything over quietly for a few moments before sighing in resignation.
"All right, so what sort of instructions do you have for me then?"
There was a few second pause and she'd look around the cabin before hissing out another soft line.
"If anything happens to my family because of you I will not stop till you are dead a thousand times over. Are we clear?"

It was clear that whoever was on the other end of this line held complete control. However much K fumed, however much she wanted to speak out - she simply couldn't get a single word in. As the owner of the voice expected, K resigned herself to the instructions - though she added a caveat quickly enough.
"Ooh, aren't you a scary mom? No worries, dear Renamon - so long as you follow my word, nothing ill will befall those two. But for now, listen closely: stay away from the Northern Prominence for the next month or so - it'll be clear why after the fact." Well, that instruction seemed almost tame - and the others were likely expected.
"Second, if you are offered a phone, you'll take it, and should you hear me, distance yourself to listen to the instructions. Third - and this should be obvious enough - don't tell others that you're receiving these instructions."
To that, he clarified: "I don't mind them knowing that the calls are happening, but the instructions themselves - and my connection to Grace - are to be kept under wraps. Is all of this clear?"

The renamon shifted in frustration as she couldn't do anything but listen, make threats and hope for the best. She was somewhat irritated that she couldn't do anything immediately or quick enough to make this not so one sided but with the lack of information and the lack of power she was on the back foot more than she'd like. Her threat was met with just what she was expecting for the most part; him not taking it too seriously. But she was dead serious; if anything happened to her child or mikemon because of the other mon she would destroy them, she'd make every effort to stop them at every turn. She'd pursue them to the ends of the digital or human world if she had to.
"Next five days? I wasn't planning on going there anyways so it's easy enough. Tch..."
Her ears flicked as the second instruction was given. That when she was offered a phone, finding him on the opposite end of it she would distance herself from people as to be able to listen to them. She'd drum her fingers on leg and sigh softly.
"Easily done on both accounts. I doubt anyone would attempt to pursue me and push privacy."
She'd frown a little bit as he clarified the instructions a little bit. She wasn't to tell others, she wasn't to tell anyone about his connections with grace or the calls pretty much in general. She had to find a way of making these calls seem somewhat normal if she was going to manage this.
"Yes. It's clear as day."
The renamon sighed a little bit and shook her head. She'd bite her lower lip and shift in her seat, glancing around the car for a few seconds before returning her attention to the call.
"There sounds like there's more you have in mind. Or am I being too presumptuous?"

The first instruction was clear enough, of course. If K had any solace in this 'deal', it would be that the voice had yet to ask her to do anything. To her agreement on both counts, she would hear a chuckle across the line:
"Oh, most excellent. I look forward to working with you, dear Renamon. And of course I have something in mind.
"Isn't that the fun of it, after all?"
Without even waiting for a response, after just a short chuckle, the line would cut off, K left alone with the dial tone. With the call ended, she'd be free to move back to the last car - and as she would step back in, Mikemon would tap the seat next to him, a concerned expression in his eyes.
After all, K's emotions - and of course, her data - fluctuated noticeably during that call. Should she sit back down, the cat would once more lean into her side, and simply ask:
"Rough call?"

K sat there with a small frown; wondering quietly to herself if she should even be dealing with this mon. She should of just hung up the moment she heard that scratching shouldn't she? But now she was in the thick of a 'deal' with this digimon and wouldn't be able to back out. The chuckle on the other side of the line made her sigh softly. Of course he had something in mind; why wouldn't he? He wouldn't be calling otherwise! Before she could respond to him about the 'fun' part of this she was left with a chuckle and the dial tone.
Sighing again she'd step into the other car; rubbing her muzzle awkwardly and giving the mikemon a small but somewhat frustrated look before taking a seat next to him. Her tail curled around him and the renamon placed her arm around him as well; giving a gentle squeeze to the cat.
"Rough yes, hard things to swallow but I think it'll be okay. Just have to be on the look out for a few things."
The renamon scratched her ear a little bit and gave the mikemon a small smile.
"Regardless. I'm kind of hungry after all of this, any ideas for where we should go for food...?"
The renamon really didn't want to have to think about what the Wisemon would want from her. What he would probably 'suggest' to the digimon. She had to take this bullet for her family after all; but she had to be careful not to get used to this sort of thing...

It was clearly quite rough, but thankfully, K wasn't trying to hide that much. With how quick the Renamon tried to change the topic, Mikemon gave a calm sigh, letting that tail and arm curl around him.
At the moment, it seemed like K was trying to distract herself - and right now, Mikemon wasn't going to press too much. Instead, he simply nuzzled against the fox, returning his own smile. "We'll figure out something when we get back to Whitewater. But for now, well, just know that I'll be looking out for you. Alright?"
If K didn't want to share the details, that was fine with him. After all, they already had enough going on between them - between the move, GraceNovamon, and of course, the egg, they would definitely have their work cut out for them!
"Maybe we should start thinking of names..."

The renamon didn't really want to talk about the phone call all too much; she was still somewhat processing it. She didn't know what she was going to do in the long term; but she felt that she had made a mistake for the moment. Perhaps she should of just told them to bugger off or something. Humans used that term all the time didn't they? She'd give the mikemon a firm squeeze and sighed softly.
"I know, you're one of the few people that I can rely on. Thank you dear."
The renamon rubbed her muzzle a little bit and flicked her ear at the mention of them starting to think of names. She'd pause and mull it over a bit; gingerly scratching along the mikemon's ear as she did so. With a small hum she'd stare at the box; she had always considered changing her own name personally and was always thinking of names. Or at least that's what she had done when she was younger.
"I've got a few in mind if it's a girl, but I don't have many for boys..."
She'd admit quietly; but for now she'd certainly try to forget the phone call for the moment. Not so much the instructions that had come with them; but perhaps she just wasn't ready to have to deal with the Wisemon so soon...
