The Digital World was like a school, but specializing in harsh lessons; Wakako enrolled in it beyond her own will. It wasn't that its lessons were bad... If anything, they were invaluable to the young girl! She has never been more independent until now, for here... she was the master of her own fate. Any decision she made was a decision she herself decided, not what others tell her to do. If anything, the Digital World offered a degree of freedom that many kids could only dream of... Though said freedom was at a price.
As Wakako waded through the harsh brush and plantlife of the Cipher Jungle, she gritted her teeth as she briefly swatted what felt like a bug biting her leg; sweat beading on her forehead. The humidity and heat was absolutely awful here... Nothing in Japan was THIS bad, not even the hottest summer days compared to this hostile environment. The heat was almost unbearable... Yet she knew she had to keep going.
Taking a moment to catch her breath as she stopped by a tree, the girl pulled out her D-Tector as she briefly glanced at the screen... a radar pointing at a blip that was somewhat close by. It might have been a rough environment, but the prize for her efforts was finally in sight it felt like. Somewhere in this horrid place, she would finally find what she had came here in the first place for... Another spirit.
It has been almost... four months now? It was hard to keep track of the days it felt, though Wakako was slowly starting to feel like she was becoming used to the Digital World... she just wasn't sure that was a good thing. She has had to defend herself occasionally... and at least once, kill. Digimon seemed oddly comfortable with the idea of fighting... and while it always seemed scary to Wakako in her real form, when she was Alexandramon... things felt different. She didn't feel scared or afraid, but rather brave and powerful. Whenever she felt that Human Spirit of Light empower her, it felt like she was a completely different person. No longer a frightened, lost little girl... She was a force of nature. Such power while was an invaluable tool, it was also an intoxicating one.
She still remembered that first time she had ever Spirit Digivolved into Alexandramon, back with Sho at the Spyware Caverns... They had met that one Sorcermon who denied them help, and despite their best efforts pleading for mercy, all they earned was their wrath. She didn't want to fight... She knew Sho did not want to either, yet they both were forced to the brink. She had not intended to help kill them, but they really had no choice to... It was kill or be killed.
It wasn't an easy thing to adjust to. Here in the Digital World, violence was very much considered a viable tool for survival... and Wakako knew it was necessary. She had to survive... She had to find a way home somehow. She was tired of being stuck here, forced to adapt to a new world against her will... She just wanted to go home and see her parents. The fact that she knew they were likely worried sick about her (even if it was really only maybe two and half weeks in the real world) made her feel sick... She hated everything about this, she genuinely did.
She felt a shiver down her spine... She was terrified at the mere thought of never being able to escape this world. What would have happened then? Would she have been presumed dead? Would her parents be able to ever move on? None of these were thoughts any young girl should ever have to think about... but the world around her was forcing her to grow up, whether she wanted to or not. She couldn't afford to dawdle obsessing over these outcomes when she could spend it trying to improve on herself. While she had no other clues as to what or how she'd be able to escape, she did know one thing... These Spirits were the one key she had to finding those answers, and she couldn't let anything else slow her down from collecting them.
Despite the harshness of the environment, the girl picked herself back up as she continued to head forward through the dense jungle area... Another dozen minutes of trekking through rough terrain and heat would finally reward Wakako with a glimpse of what HAD to have been where a Spirit was being stashed away in.
The girl had stumbled upon what appeared to be some kind of ritual site... A combination of stone pillars and crystal stalagmites rising from the ground around what seemed to be a shrine. Wakako's heart flustered as she rushed towards the monument, excitement flooding her face as she saw resting embedded in the shrine... a totem, stuck inside ruby gemstone. It was really here! Her breathing grew funny as she palmed the shrine, hoping to find some way of calling out that power... Though to her frustration, nothing responded back.
Long since has the voice that had originally guided her to Alexandramon's totem faded away, and ever since she had been forced to rely on her own wits when on her own. There was really only one other possibility left... The girl called forth that exact power from her D-Tector, her body wreathed in data as once more she took on the form of Alexandramon; the dragoness's body stretching their feather-y wings outward.
"... Spirit. I have come for your power... Join me!" the Human Hybrid commanded, their eyes lighting up... the totem finally responding as the gemstone it was encapsulated in melted away, the totem turning into light before being absorbed by Wakako... she feeling that power added to her own.
Honestly, it was surprising that this spirit was obtained with far less effort needed than the last. A good thing she supposed... She still disliked fighting, even if it was something she was willing to do if she had to. Welcome at least for her, though this meant that her time here was no longer needed. The gem dragoness took a deep breath as they turned away from the shrine, aiming to head back into the jungle.
Another key... Another key towards her freedom.
