A familiar premise, to be sure.
Coolmon was very certain she had been on this train before--It used to be a Trailmon, but she had forgotten why she had gotten on it. It had only been when the train had stopped in the real world that Coolmon had realized that she once again got lost and wandered onto a Trailmon hoping it'd take her where she needed to go.
Yeah, to say her panicking would be an appropriate reaction was...Well, it was probably valid somewhere. The rabbit ran out of the train and turned her holosuit on. Okay, maybe the river would be a good stop from here. Get back to the Digital World from there.
Maybe see if she couldn't talk to anyone along the way. Hm.
Of course, the running and holosuited human was not really looking where she was going. Something that may prove to be a deciding factor on whether she hits someone or not...

Juliet was heading home after an exhausting day. She had traveled all the way across Tokyo, struggling to find directions towards the office building, only to eventually be told that she wasn't the artist they wanted for the job. She sat dejected on the subway train, leaning on one of her hands as she watched the lights go by. Every now and then, there was a subtle movement from inside her purse hanging on her shoulder, but it seemed like her new friend didn't move in the dark. Perhaps the poor guy was just scared or made him feel tired, but she couldn't leave the little baby at home. Choromon is what her Digivice had said, but in all honesty, he just looked like a computer mouse except ten times cuter. His red eyes peeked out of her purse as she gave him a soft smile, slowly reaching into her purse to idly pet her partner slowly. Always eager for attention, it seemed.
Once the subway train finally came to a stop, Juliet reluctantly retrieved her hand from her purse and began wheeling herself off the train carefully. Going back out of the subway was going to be a pain, but she really just wanted to get home and take a nap. Letting out a quiet sigh to herself, she began wheeling further into the subway station only to be suddenly slammed into by what appeared to be a young woman running way too fast for her own good in the subway.
Juliet shouted in surprise as her entire chair fell over, slamming her side down onto the ground with a loud thump. She groaned softly, rubbing away at her shoulder as she slowly sat up, her purse fallen just a foot away from her. "Wha... Hey." She finally noticed the girl who had ran into her and let a nervous smile spread across her face. It was just an accident, no reason to take her frustration out on her. "A-are you okay, Miss?" She spoke, still sitting on the ground and not really able to do much else. Of course, such a big scene obviously was drawing a lot of worried eyes.
However, in almost direct contrast to Juliet's attempt to remain calm, from inside her purse would be glowing red eyes, staring directly at the woman almost as if he could sense something he didn't like. Knowing better than to expose himself thanks to Juliet's teaching, he simply stuck his tail out of the purse and sparked threateningly. Of course, considering he was nothing more than a baby, it didn't have much actual danger behind it.

Okay, slamming into someone was definitely not the high point of today. Coolmon, or Kukuru, as she referred to herself with the suit on, kind of looked on in horror at what she had wrought. "Uh, kind of hurt but otherwise I'm fine!" She stated as she moved to try correcting Juliet's things. Like standing the wheelchair up.
...She didn't know what it was, but she felt like it needed to be upright. Coolmon did notice the little spark of the MetalKoromon's tail. "...Is that a..." She muttered. Oh, yeah, she was also trying to get Juliet to stand up, woefully unaware that her legs didn't work.
This probably looked strange! "Hey, um...what's that chair for?" Coolmon found herself asking the woman.

Juliet was admittedly a bit relieved when the strange girl wasn't injured too badly. Slamming into her wheelchair as she did must have hurt quite a bit. The last person to not look where they were going when running into her had a broken toe, and it wasn't like they didn't deserve it acting all so uptight and everything. This girl just seemed a bit too excited and she couldn't exactly blame them.
Juliet's eyes slowly narrowed as the girl attempted to help her onto her feet. Especially at her question, she simply let out a soft sigh. Did this lady honestly have no idea what a wheelchair was? What kind of life did she live where she had never even seen someone paraplegic before? She couldn't help but frown a little bit, shaking her head as more and more people started to stare. Juliet laughed uncomfortably as the little guy in her purse began to spark even more out of worry for his companion.
"... Ma'am, I can't walk. Please help me upright my wheelchair." She finally let out a soft sigh, rolling up her sleeves and exposing her rather muscular arms before lifting herself up off the ground a bit to reach over and grab onto her purse. She wasn't blind to the fact that her Choromon buddy was being aggressive but she assumed it was over nothing more than a protective feeling for her. She casually reached into her purse to try and pet and calm him down as eventually people just started moving on past them once more, giving them a wide berth to walk around.

The girl didn't seem to notice people staring, and honestly kept trying to upright Juliet herself before the lady herself had to correct her. "O-Oh. That's what...that is. I see." Coolmon/Kukuru muttered as she moved to upright the strange contraption before she noticed that the unwalking lady was, in fact, fucking ripped. Like goddamn, that was more buff than a nonspecific undying buff lion man.
"...Woah, those are some huge arms! Those are awesome!" How ignorant was she to what was around her? The answer was probably a lot. She noticed Juliet reaching into the same purse she saw the little sparking from, and once she finished uprighting her wheelchair, she moved it towards the woman and tried to seat her in it. "Okay, um, is that better?"

The girl was certainly acting quite odd, even for someone clueless. She could understand someone not realizing her lack of the ability to walk in a panic, but the way she seemed completely unaware of what a wheelchair even was had her confused. What kind of person didn't know what a wheelchair was? Not even those who lived in the country all their lives were that clueless, were they? She certainly didn't give off that appearance at the very least, which caused her to be confused even more so.
Juliet was unable to resist blushing softly as the girl mentioned her arms. Sure, she had worked out to keep herself fit and as independent as she liked, but that didn't mean she was always comfortable with someone else acknowledging it. It felt almost like something private to her but in the end, it really made no sense. It was just her arms exposed, nothing else. She did have to make up for the strength loss on the lower half of her body, or at least that is what she told herself in any case.
She was thankful for righting the chair, but once again gently pushed the woman back. "I got this. Thank you, but I'm capable of doing this myself." Juliet gripped the bottom of the chair, moving the leg supports out of the way before hoisting herself up with a quick movement really only developed through intense practice. Too slow and her weight would have toppled the wheelchair right on top of her once more but she seemed to have the movement down solid.
Of course, once upright in her chair her purse suddenly wobbled intensely on her shoulder. Juliet quickly blushed, carefully holding her purse close to her chest. Before she can even respond, the angry baby Digimon once again stuck his long tail out of the purse to spark in an attempted warning towards the strange lady before hiding away once more. Immediately, Juliet's eyes widened immensely as she suddenly spoke. "I-I should uh, just go. Yeah." Juliet quickly grabbed onto the wheels of her chair, attempting to push herself right out of the subway entirely and towards the exit.

Truth be told Coolmon was actually quite...floored at this revelation. Not only could humans get apparently unable to use their legs. "Oh, um, if you say so, miss!" She didn't seem to mind Juliet's insistence that she was able to take care of herself. Honestly, she thought it was pretty impressive considering she couldn't move her legs.
Coolmon was about to let Juliet go, before she remembered that she saw something that looked like a Digimon in her purse. Like, a baby. So she decided to follow her. "Hey, um, wait!" If she had allowed her to catch up, then the disguised rabbit would ask but a simple inquiry.
"...What was that sparking in your purse? Did I end up causing that somehow...?"

Juliet had booked it out of the subway as fast as she was physically possible. Of course, due to her wheelchair that was infinitely much slower than anyone else could actually run. The crowds certainly didn't help either, and it wasn't like most people would purposefully go out of their way to make room for her going down the sidewalk as she moved. Everyone else was just busy, going about their life. Maybe some of them were heading to work or going to school, but it didn't matter to her. Right now, all she wanted was to get home and relax and forget about all that just happened.
However, that didn't seem like it would be the case. The girl was running after her, chasing her down. It wasn't exactly like Juliet could run away, nor did she want to make herself any more obvious. Choromon was already making enough of a scene in the subway, she really needed to learn a better way to disguise him. Not knowing what to do, she simply pulled into a nearby alley in an attempt to get away from the girl.
The plan, unfortunately, didn't work. She caught up to them in no time. Juliet blinked in response, slowly attempting to tuck her purse further down. What was with this girl? "I... don't know what you are talking about. Nothing happened in my purse. End of story. Why are you still following me?"
To Juliet's surprise, Choromon came barreling out of her purse like a bat out of hell. The little electronic-mouse like Digimon literally leaped out of her purse, attempting to strike the girl in the face with his entire body. Her presence as a Digimon was obvious as day to the little guy and he was furiously attempting to protect his tamer and friend, in spite of being an actual baby who just recently hatched.
"C-choromon! What are you doing?" Juliet shouted, desperately trying to reach over to grab her little aggressive Digimon.

"No, no, I mean I saw something sparking. That might not be very healthy, it might catch fire and stuff and that'd be...actually pretty bad." Coolmon wasn't necessarily trying to chase Juliet down, more keep up with her and ask questions. Incessantly. It felt annoying to be doing that, maybe she should stop.
Though, she wasn't expecting a baby Digimon to leap out of that purse and strike her dead in the face. Now, here's a little known tidbit about holosuits. For how wonderful they can be, they're about as strong as a Shoutmon in an argument over Tamernet. Which was, to say, they were flimsy as hell.
A single attack could deactivate it. And that strike did just that, the girl dissipating to reveal a pink rabbit with a pair of headphones on her head and an earthen scarf. "Owch!" She yelped, before she looked down and realized that her disguise was off. Rather than pay attention to Choromon, she tried frantically to reactivate her suit!
