Beta Testing
The data space, aka Digital Shift, that Nexus was created was now formed, thanks to the help of many Digimon and human efforts. Though yet to open and be active to the 'general public', it was still busy with many Digimon coming and going who were invited to make home and business here. While this happened, the founding members of Nexus were busy on another project.
One of the key things that made Nexus a great idea, was a smoother means of travel between the real world and Digital World-- so it was proposed to make a unique Digi-Gate around Nexus. A portal that not only linked a human tamer or spirit user back to their home HP where they accessed the Nexus Website, but also linked to the Digital World for more accurate and safer transportation between locations. Thanks to Jeremy (Temp name), he was able to study how Digital Gates worked to create a device and program that allowed such easy transfers. However, design was one thing. Testing it was another.
For the moment, Zachary and his partner, Panthermon were at the southern edge of Nexus, near the device. It reminded Zachary of a giant astrological mobile with spinning and moving parts revolving around a glowing core, and bits shifted around. Perhaps it was for aesthetics, but looked like something out of a science fiction book-- as most from the Digital World could be like. Others from their group were among them, Ami for one and her partner.
More so was Jeremy as he sat on the ground tapping on his laptop, hooked up to the Digital Shift they were all in to help modify the gate. Beside him was HIS new partner-- Datamon, who also tinkered with an interface screen made from a hologram.
"With this device, members who have the a digivice can access Nexus through these physical points, and use them to travel to specific locations in the Digital World. The process moves our physical and metal data to the new location similar to how data moves through an internet trumpline. As long as the connection is good, it should work. " Jeremy explained as he never took his eyes off his computer.
Zachary leered at Jeremy. He knew him well enough but still didn't like his choice of words. "I don't like how you said 'should'. You don't know?" Zachary asked.
Datamon was the one to turn to him and give him a funny look. "Hey, you ever try to connect two worlds using a Digital Shift as an intermediary, pal? Give us a little credit! We got this place running, didn't we?" the Datamon said snappishly.
The two were an odd duo indeed.

Ami was always a shy girl. Getting involved in things was never her strong point but she did love to help.
So she had always been more than willing to get involved in Zachary's idea and now here it was...this whole idea had definitely done something for her confidence. Not that it was obvious, unfortunately she still struggled to actively express her opinions on things but she had Mikumon for that.
The little pink cat was currently on her shoulder, enjoying herself to a certain degree but mostly was kind of bored. Unlike Ami teams didn't interest her, this whole thing wasn't as awe inspiring for the cat Digimon as it was for her tamer.
Ami may have had complete faith in Jeremy and Datamon but she really wished he had used some word other than 'should'... literally any other, more confident word. Because now she couldn't help but think of what could go wrong....which was literally anything and everything....
Her partner sensed Ami's nervousness and leapt off her shoulder. Miki trotted over to the Datamon.
The cat Digimon had a very mischievous look in her eyes. "Ami, don't worry about it. If anything goes wrong..." Miku shows her claws off, Ami shook her head in disbelief, picking the Digimon up
"Mikumon, don't do that" Ami looked to Zachary "do you trust this'll work?" She asked, hoping for a vote of confidence and she trusted Zachary's opinions far more than her own anyway.
Miku just made an annoyed sound and stayed put. Flicking her tail back and forth with a very bored expression on her face. "Why don't I ever get to have any fun?"

Datamon looked over to Mikumon with a nervous apprehension despite his attention to the holographic data pad he had his fingers on. "What is it with your cats and chewing our wires eh? Bad kitty! Shoo!" he replied unapologetically. Datamon certainly was a sassy one by Datamon standards.
Zachary shook his head while his partner, Panthermon was patient unlike the other 'pink panther'. Zachary had been mindful up until Ami asked him if he thought it would work. He shrugged, but his words were more informative. "Well, it can't hurt. I mean we come so far. Making a Digital Shift into our home base was a greater feat. If this custom Digital Gate can help us, we have to explore it. Besides, nothing ventured, nothing gained," he replied to her.
After a bit of typing, Jeremy rose up. "It's done. The gate should be operational," he said as the lights on the ground light up, revealing the places one would stand on to teleport before the spinning structure. "So... any volunteers?" he asked.
"Your confidence is overwhelming..." Panthermon replied, sitting back down in a leisurely gesture. "I'll pass."
Zachary rolled his eyes. They all would have to try it at some point. With no one openly willing to try it, Zachary stepped forward. "I'll do it. Why not? Just promise me you won't get my stuff mixed up wherever you send me, okay?" Zachary asked.
"Don't be such a worry wort," Damon replied, still observing the data screen. "The odds of you being completely deatomized is literally 0.01235%."
The simple stating of the odds didn't help and probably earn Datamon more heckling later.
Either way, Zachary remained unafraid as he stepped onto the platform and turned to face them. "Beam me up, Jeremy," Zachary said as he held out his arms in welcome.
Jeremy returned to his laptop and began to enter a program on it. "Transfer, Zaber... Scanner, Zaber..." he began, causing the lights below him to rise up to 'scan' his body. Zachary waited patiently as he let the light coax him. He expected to be sent somewhere, anywhere soon when Jeremy hit the key. "... and Transmission."
The energy for Zachary began to surge... but Zachary didn't go anywhere . (Either would Ami if she too decided to try it) . The scan soon ended, and Zachary was still there.
"Uh oh..." Datamon said with concern.
Zachary glanced at them. "What? What is it?" he asked, beyond nervous-- he felt a fine. He didn't have missing body parts but was still in the same place.
"Um, there seems to be a minor bug," Jeremy said.
"What bug?"

Miku hissed quietly at Datamon. "I'd watch your wires carefully Datamon, because you might just find yourself on the recieving end of my claws before the day I over"
Ami sighed, she was way too used to this. Her partner never could let anything go. When Jeremy asked for volunteers she stepped back. "U-uh... I-I think I'll opt out of this one if you don't mind"
Mikumon chuckled. The poor girl still couldn't quite get over her nerves but with time that should change. At least, Miku hoped so. "Well if Ami isn't I may as well stay with her"
And so to her great surprise Zaber volunteered. Ami was intensely nervous about this, she didn't want anything bad to happen but then he seemed fairly confident so she would have to trust him.
Besides, Jeremy and Datamon had worked really hard on this. She had to have a little faith.
As Zachary stepped in the girl smiled weakly. She really hated that Datamon used odds, that didn't help. Ami had noticed the odds never seemed to be in her favour.
"Good luck" then as Jeremy started to transfer she decided to close her eyes. She thought perhaps it was better not to look till she knew it had worked of course...
Then she heard two things she really didn't want to hear... 'Uh oh' and 'bug'.
"W-what? Uh oh?! What do you mean uh oh?! What kind of bug?" She looked back, covering her eyes because she was far too nervous. Mikumon slowly climbed onto her shoulder. She knew something would go wrong she just knew it. She peeked a little curious about said 'bug'
"It had better not have done anything too bad..." She mumbled awkwardly. "Uh oh..."

Ami's cry of concern made Zachary a bit nervous, but he felt fine. He didn't even feel any pain. The only issue seemed that he was still there and not in the Digital World. However he then heard it...
" Jeez, typical things like this always seem to happen, don't it? " It was Zachary's voice, but not his own.
Zachary turned to his right, and soon was face to face... with himself. It was like looking into a mirror and his eyes went wide with shock and confusion. "WHAT THE HELL?!" they both said in unison.
Panthermon growled and raised a paw to cover his eyes at the ludicrous scene and situation. "Great. Another Dobbleganger issue..." the cat groaned.
The other Zachary stood in attention, overly proud and boastful even without uttering a word, an amplified expression of his fearlessness and pride in himself. Zachary, the real one, looked on in surprise and concern to see himself bo like this.
He looked to the others, his eyes wide with concern. "Jeremy..." Zachary said with a growingly concerned and angry tone, "Tell me you have a solution for this!"
Jeremy was rapidly typing on his laptop to try and iron out the bug that somehow created a copy of himself acting like this. "Huh, very strange. Seems like some emerging quality that appeared unexpectedly," he said in interest.
"Gee, no kidding!"
"Relax, it will all be fine. Just stay where you are and I will reverse the proceedure. Just no one stress me out, okay?" Jeremy said, trying to write in the code to fix the transporter.

A doppleganger....oh Ami knew something would go wrong. How the heck did this even happen?!
Miku went over to Jeremy and Datamon, she wasn't angry, right now the pink cat was just worried. "So, can this be fixed? Right?"
Ami walked over picking up Mikumon again. She looked over to Zachary. "Did it just make a copy cat?" She asked, slightly curious but more than glad she hadn't tried it out. She adjusted her goggles a little, glancing between the two Zachary. She hoped it wouldn't be too long till this was fixed. That way she wouldn't have to deal with telling the two apart.
Mikumon looked between them as well. "God, this is insane. I'm actually not sure whether to be impressed something like this is possible or to be upset that Datamon messed up"
The cat Digimon said that last bit with a huge load of venom. Clearly the cat really didn't much like Datamon. If she could get her paws on his wires she probably play with them like a ball of yarn.....of course Ami would never allow it. So she would deal with it for now.
"Mikumon that's not nice" she gives a shaky smile "I'm sure Datamon and Jeremy can fix this. It's just a little bug....right?" Ami took a deep breath trying to chill a little. Sure she wasn't a computer whizz but she had faith this whole situation would be settled soon enough...

"Well, I'm sure this will all work out!" The copy of Zachary said as he looked out at Nexus. "Wow, I gotta admit it, we really made something amazing here. So do what you can Jeremy! We just gotta keep trying!"
Zachary, the real one, screwed his face in a bit of disbelief as he sounded like some overly happy character from a children's show. "What the ... I do NOT sound like this!" he said in fright and turned to Jeremy. "Jeremy...."
"Calm down," the boy said, adjusting his glasses. "I almost got it fixed. It just gave an exxagurated impression of you, like looking through a funhouse mirror."
"This isn't the same than a warped mirror!" Zachary exclaimed.

Ami looked between the two Zachary.
"Definitely not the same as a funhouse mirror" Ami fiddled with her goggles as Mikumon sat down in front of the two.
"So what? One of you is overly happy and bouncy? You sound like Ami on chocolate"
"H-Hey!"
"It's true" the Digimon responds, deadpan. Miku looks over at Datamon curiously "What kind of bug could do something like this though? We'd should do something about it"
The cat calmly trots over to Ami and leaps onto her shoulder. "We don't want a bunch of copycats like that if other people go through it." The cat laughs "I wonder what would happen if you went through it Ami"
The girl shook her head. "I'd rather not think about this. How are you staying so chill Miku?!"
"Eh, it's not that bad. It's a little interesting actually"
Ami shakes her head. She gently pats Mikumon with an attempt at a calm expression. This whole situation was too much honestly. But she had no clue why she was surprised, this was pretty well the norm ever since she met Mikumon.
Weird situations always happened, Ami should've been used to them by now. Ami sighed quietly. Well until it was fixed she might as well try to see it as Miku did
"Well....I guess it is fascinating. I never really imagined this could happen. Of all the things I thought might this was not one of them"
Miku looked between the two again. "Really, this is actually kinda funny" the look in the cat's eyes hinted she might have found something to harass Datamon about. Mikumon covered her mouth with her paw "they say two heads are better than one after all" she chuckled a little.
"Now is not the time for a bad joke" Ami replied, face palming.
