how long can you run away from your problems for [open]

Ry huffed, running as fast as his legs could carry him, the sweat streaming down and ensuring that his clothes clung to his body. He gasped for air, and his legs started to burn from the strain, though he was also glad that he had track team training or his legs would have given out long ago.
But at the same time, he couldn't let that happen or he would have been captured by the malicious drilly digimon that were out to get him and a few other people. He wasn't sure what had happened to the others, but they were about to capture him and he was not about that prison life. Especially not if he had to share a cell with other drilly digimon, or just digimon in general. He would have had the living shit beaten out of him.
So he ran, he distracted a few of them then managed to push his way out of there. Surprisingly, he managed to dodge their attacks by zipping here and there, and then getting himself within the woods nearby and running past without looking back. They didn't seem to be chasing after him either after a certain point, so that was good news.
Once he was deeply within the forest, as far as he could, he began to slow down, and now he leaned against a tree, looking back and assured that no one really was coming after him in the end. He took a few deep breaths, and allowed himself to get back into a normal breathing pattern. But he surprised himself when he looked back up and really focused on what he was seeing in front of him.
Out of the forest and the trees, he saw a clearing of what seemed like a multicoloured playground, with a lot of gigantic eggs scattered about. He wasn't sure what he was looking at, there were giant playing blocks, like the kind he used to play with as a kid, and baskets and stuff lying around. There didn't seem to be anyone there though, so he was safe.
Ry took a few steps forward and then began to walk towards the new area, inspecting it slowly. Such a peaceful place.

There was no telling just how far Akemi felt like she had to run, especially with a fussy Anzu in tow. It was a miracle that they had managed to get away from all seven of those FUCKING DIGMON before they could get...you know, thrown in the slammer or worse. Much less by bullrushing straight ahead with little to no regard for safety in the slightest.
"Slow down! No, really, slow down, I think I know where this place is and you might trip you dingus hOLY CRAP SLOW DOWN!"
Anzu's warnings had come a little too late, and Akemi not only somehow ran past Ry without noticing him, but she had also tripped on a basket and wound up careening onto the ground with Anzu.
That was nothing short of embarrassing, both parties letting a groan out. "...Are they gone yet...?" "Just like my dignity, you moron." The bean replied.

Ry heard the shouts coming towards him, quickly getting louder and louder as they headed his way. He snapped his head back as he watched the girl and a purple thing come crashing past him, completely oblivious of his existence.
And both of them immediately careened into a basket in the unusual place, making a fool of themselves that Ry couldn't help but chuckle a little.
He squinted a little bit, and then immediately relaxed when he recognised them both, they had been trapped alongside him, and it seemed they took the same way he did. It was also much better too since he also liked the purple guinea pig's bravado, so it was great to see they managed to get away.
He walked over to them and then held both his hands out, one for the girl and one for the bean, "It's good to see you guys again," he said, "Need a hand?"

The pain sank in like the Titanic after it heard there was some ice cream in the water. That didn't make a lot of sense but goddamn was Akemi in paiiiin. Not to insinuate that Anzu wasn't. Both rolled over and stared at Ry.
That guy was at the very thing they just ran from. It was slightly worrying to run into him again, for what if the Digmon were still close?
Well, if they hadn't come here now it was doubtful they were going to come here anytime soon. Akemi took the hand offered, as did Anzu, and the latter yawned. "I gotta go beat up some Digs!" She barked. "...It's nice to see you too, you doing okay? Those guys had -drills.-"

Ry took their hands firmly and pulled them up, though he tried to be gentle about it. It must have hurt rolling into a gigantic basket, which was odd even for Digital World standards. Oh well, he can think about that later.
Sensing the worry from their stares, he quickly said, "Don't worry, we're long gone from any of the drilly boys," he glanced behind him, "They stopped chasing me once I got into the forest, and I don't hear their drills from below us, so we're good."
He couldn't help but smile when the purple bean declared that she was going to beat up the drilly guys, "If you're going to go beat them up, I'll come with you," he replied, not in a sarcastic manner at all, though he didn't know how useful he would actually be in a fight, "Yeah I'm good, are you guys fine though? They didn't touch me, thankfully."
Then he took another look around at the place they were in, the colourful area and the eggs were certainly out of character from the dangerous Digital World, and the quietness of the place even more so. He still couldn't see anyone around, it was just the three of them there, "Do you guys know where this place is? Or what it is?"
Before he could say anything more, he looked down to see a big green-striped egg roll down their way and bump into his foot. He stared at it, the ground was flat, there was no one there, how did the egg roll its way over to them?

"No beating people up, please. I've had enough people chasing me for stuff I had no part in already, I'd really rather not make that number go up because the bean was a moron." "HEY. I'm not a bean! I am TERROR!"
As for the other question hanging in the air, Akemi would peer around, smoothing out her mess of hair before coming to a very honest answer. "I actually don't know." Anzu, however seemed to have more knowledge. "Oh, this is probably the Village of Beginnings! Or a place near it. If it actually were, we'd be swarmed with babies, and babies are awful! Wastes of data!"

Ry couldn't help but smirk at the two, especially at the purple guinea pig, "You and me both," he chuckled, "Trust me, half of the life-threatening situations I get in were not my fault."
"Village of Beginnings? So... the eggs just come out of nowhere?" he picked up the the egg by his foot, stared at it, then looked around, "Why is there no one here, looking after the eggs? What if one of those drilly mons come after us and start destroying this place?"
Ry frowned, unconsciously rubbing the egg in his hand as he looked around the entire field.

"I can swiftly attribute a lot of those to her, on the other hand." Akemi replied. Anzu had a knack for attracting trouble, which was perplexing and annoying at the same time, given most of the time she just wanted to find out a little more about this crapsack world. Akemi glanced around, having heard a little on what the Village -was- specifically. But not all too much. "No, they...come from somewhere else. Where that elsewhere is could basically be anywhere. And...To answer that other question?" She continued, "I don't know. Neither of us had been here before."
Anzu wriggled free from Akemi's hands to give the egg in Ry's hand a poke. She used to be one of these. What's with this?

Ry couldn't help but smirk more when the girl pointed at the purple bean as the source of most of her problems, looking at the guinea pig, Ry could certainly understand why she said so. The bean was definitely not helping with the drilly bois earlier, no matter how hilarious it was to watch.
"Digimon don't have the birds and the bees?" Ry asked, couldn't help but being a little bit mischievous for a bit. Though, he has noticed that digimon have a... lack of reproductive organs. It makes sense that they birth other digimon in some other way instead.
The bean gave the egg a poke, and the egg jolted in Ry's hands a lot stronger than the poke had been. Ry yelped and accidentally let the egg go, it fell to the ground yet did not crack open. Curiously, instead, it began to shake more, little cracks starting to form from the top of the egg. Ry could only stare at it, dumbfounded, and also afraid of ruining the egg more by touching it.
Then suddenly, the cracks began to form faster, and faster, until little pieces of the egg shell began to fall away, and before Ry could stop it, the egg burst open, revealing what looked like... a black blob?
"Bota!" it exclaimed, and then somehow jumped five feet up into Ry's hand.
"Uh."

Anzu really was the source of a lot of trouble, huh? She looked up at Ry and with a surprising amount of intelligence behind her words, she gave her interpretation of this question. "Well, no. See, digital reproduction is more or less just copy and pasting half of two different 'mons somehow and leaving the new one to do whatever. Eggs also come from people DYING too!" Wait, WHAT? Akemi looked at Anzu as if she were crazy. "...You're not ac-" "I totally am!"
And then! The egg hatched! Into...
A familiar face for Akemi. "...HOLY SHIT IT'S FUZZBALL!" She squealed! "...I thought I was fuzzball. If anything that's Fuzzball II." Anzu looked a little unamused. Yeah, that might or might not have been the first Digimon that wasn't an angel that Akemi had seen in the Digital World.

Though Ry had only asked the question in jest, he raised his eyebrow when he saw that the purple bean had taken his question more-or-less seriously. A smirk also widened when the bean actually answered as well. Copy and pasting two digimons together? That's definitely digital for you alright.
Ry snorted at the last example though, "Digimon coming from dead ones? So like zombies?" he joked, "I'd like to see that one day."
He then glanced back down to the black ball in his hand and nearly jumped from the sudden squeal from the girl, "You guys have seen this before?" then glanced with a frown at the bean, "This was you once? You turned from black to purple?"
Ry squinted at the black ball a little closer, and then prodded at it with gently with a finger with his free hand. The fur squealed and a blast of bubbles appeared from it, obviously spat out by the little thing. Ry grinned, "You're a cute little one," he looked at the other two, "Should we give it a name?"

"Naw, naw! I mean...I think there's zombie digimon somewhere...But I mean like reincarnation. One life ends. Another begins." Anzu explained with a vernacular that was incredibly...unnatural for this being, this entity that one would consider too stupid to live. "Yes. That was once what I looked like. Then I turned purple. And purpler. She called me Fuzzball." Anzu gestured towards Akemi. "A name would be most appropriate. Now, I'd name it Fuzzball II but that's...narcissistic. No. Hmm...Why not...Boots."
A truly clever name.
Akemi was actually speechless at this. What the actual heck just happened? What sort of unnatural phenomena dared to grace her after that goddamn fiasco with SEVEN FUCKING DIGMON?
After a moment of silence from both tamer and Digimon...Akemi finally spoke. "...The heck just happened?"
