Bringing the car to a stop Lothar, who was in the driver's side, parked and he and Mandrake climbed out. The couple looked over the rolling hills watching the grass be blown by the wind before Lilly squeaked in an effort to get attention. Lothar walked over to the back seat unbuckling the Jyarimon from her car seat before setting her in the crook of Mandrake's organic arm since the Wizardmon's bionic left arm was damaged and hanging limp so the pair left Mandrake's staff in the car.
Spotting a tall tree, Mandrake walked over to it before sitting down in the shade of the tree. As soon as he did so Lilly had begun gumming on his arm clearly still not at total peace after Mandrake's and Lilly's kidnapping hours earlier. To be fair neither Mandrake nor Lothar expected Lilly to forget the incident instantly. Sitting next to Mandrake, Lothar set his bag on the ground before digging through it and bringing out his toolkit. He set out the tools before him before he looked at Mandrake and said "I think it would be best if I get to work on your arm, Mandrake."
Mandrake nodded and, so as not to dislodge Lilly's grip on his arm, used his telekinesis to remove his glove and roll up his sleeve. Lothar then took hold of the artificial limb before removing it from where it was connected near the magician's elbow. Knowing his fiance was still self conscious about having his bionic arm visible, Lothar began repairs hoping to be done as soon as possible. Meanwhile Lilly had gone from gumming on Mandrake's arm to quietly sucking on the cloth of the Wizardmon's sleeve with her sapphire eyes drooping closed and her ears neatly folding as she drifted to sleep.

Not far from Lothar and the group, Lucia and maria was walking happily, but Maria looked exhausted."How much longer do we gotta walk?"Maria complained. She was tired and she just was going to faceplant into the ground sooner or later. Lucia Sighed at her twin sister, it's been like how long now? an day or so since being in the digi world.
Maria sighed."I'm too, Tired."The short haired twin said. Lucia sighed at her complaining sister and sat down."Fine we can rest."she said and Maria sat plopped down and happily Sighed."Finally I can rest!"She said. To be honest they was traveling since sunrise and yeah they had breaks and stuff. Maria opened a bag of cookies and took one out and starts eating it. The twins was near Lothar and the others now.

While Lothar quietly worked on repairing Mandrake's arm Mandrake became aware of two minds not far from them causing the Wizardmon to look in the direction of where he felt the two presences. Noticing how Mandrake was alert and not looking comfortable, Lothar asked "What is it, Mandrake?"
Not taking his gaze from the direction of where he sensed the two minds, he answered "I'm picking up two presences but they are definitely human. I don't sense any digimon yet though."
Lilly sensing Mandrake's unease began fussing before her sapphire blue eyes opened. "No?" Lilly said as if asking a question her ears unfolding looking in the direction Mandrake was facing. Then the baby digimon did something neither of her parents was expecting as she hopped out of Mandrake's lap towards the two humans.
Almost as if forgetting that his bionic arm was not attached he sprang to his feet running after Lilly. Meanwhile Lilly, who had proven to be surprisingly fast for having no legs, had hopped into sight of the two girls blinking at them as if trying to figure them out. Mandrake caught up seconds later and, to Lilly, said "Lilly, you shouldn't of ran off."
Meanwhile Lothar had remained where he was continuing to repair Mandrake's arm. If help was needed Mandrake could call out to Lothar telepathically. That and both Mandrake and Lilly hadn't wandered far.

Lucia had sighed and Looked at her Twin."Okay, I know your tired, but we can explore around here if you want?"Lucia Suggested. Maria Sat up immediately and BEamed happily."Yesss, More Exploring!"She cheered. Maria was happy to do some exporing for durign the time they was staying around here She guess. Lucia chuckled at the fact that her sister does act like a little kid sometimes For almost anything exciting. "Come on then."She said. Maria noticed lily blinking at them.
"That is a cute digimon."Maria said. Maria was wondering why such a small digimon is here and it is a bit dangerous around here for her age. Her sister listening and was putting her bag back on and looks at Maria curiously. Maria went to Lily but Stopped When she see Mandrake."Is he a magician?"she asked. Maria loved magicians and Their cool magic tricks and Stuff. Lucia sighed but she was curious and wondering if The young Fresh digimon was The kid of This magcian."Probably a digimon."Lucia said to her sister.

While lecturing his daughter Mandrake had momentarily forgotten about the twin spirit wielders. That was until he heard them talking causing the Wizardmon to jerk his head up and look towards two teenage girls. Subconsciously he reached over clutching the stump that was his missing arm his self consciousness regarding it kicking in as he was now quiet. Lilly looked at her Wizardmon father looking visibly confused at the emotions she was feeling from him and squeaked like a crocodile as if trying to communicate seemingly frustrated with her extremely limited vocabulary. Upon hearing one of the girls call her cute she spun around looking at the girls her mouth moving as if trying to figure out something before she squeaked shortly before she said "Hi!" This caught Mandrake by surprise as he was now staring at his and Lothar's youngest child before Lilly began bouncing and said "Hi! Hi! Hi!" It seemed little Lilly was quite like Mandrake which seemed to be causing Mandrake to relax a bit.

The Twins looked at the Wizardmon in surprise and looked at the digimon clucthing the Stump of an arm."umm he is missing an arm."Lucia said noticing and sounding a bit worried. Maria whispered back." Yeah he is." The Twins was confused on what to do for fright now and it seemed like a stand off until The little Jyarimon said hi.
"Hi!"Lucia said. Maria waked to the Little Jyarimon and hugged it and sqeauled a bit."So, Cute for a Digimon."Maria complimented. Maria cannot resist Hugging anything that is cute and loves hugging em anyway. Lucia stepped towards to The Wizardmon."Sorry about that sir, my name is Lucia and the one hugging that little digimon is my twin sister maria."Lucia said. Since maria didn't wan to get off of the wrong foot she decided that it was best if things started good instead. Maria waved as she heard her name.

Being stared at was awkward enough for Mandrake but the girls mentioning his missing arm was making the magician visibly uncomfortable again. Lilly only seemed barely aware of the awkward stand off but, since Mandrake knew she was very aware of those around her mostly due to her empathic talents, it was more likely most her focus was on the strangers as she seemed to be trying to figure them out. Mandrake then visibly bristled becoming wary of the twins when one of them, her sister called her Maria, picked up Lilly squealing and hugging his daughter mentioning how cute she was. Mandrake relaxed at the sound of Lilly's laughter as it seemed Lilly wasn't feeling threatened in any way. Maybe being imprisoned by that Astamon only hours prior had left him more paranoid than he thought.
When the other girl apologized for her sister Mandrake said "Seeing as my daughter doesn't seem to mind it's alright. My name is Mandrake and the little one is Lilly." In response to hearing her name Lilly began giggling again.

When one of the girls apologized for mentioning his missing arm Mandrake sighed before he said "Don't worry about it. I lost my arm last year when my eldest child was still only a baby. I guess I still haven't completely recovered from the psychological standpoint." When Maria mentioned Lilly's name being cute Lilly giggled and Mandrake said "She got her name because she was born in a clearing with white lilies and took quick interest in them as she was holding one of the flowers in her mouth."Lilly squealed with delight as Maria lifted her up like an airplane. Meanwhile back at the campsite Lothar had just finished fixing Mandrake's bionic arm and had put away his tools. Mandrake and Lilly had yet to return so Lothar decided to go to them. Holding Mandrake's bionic arm in one hand and Mandrake's glove in the other, the Leomon rose to his feet following the scent of his fiance and their daughter catching the sound of Lilly's delighted squeal. Curious he picked up the pace soon spotting Mandrake and Lilly seeing the Jyarimon being played with by one of two human girls. Mandrake then said "I see you have come to join us, Lothar." Mandrake then turned to face Lothar spotting his bionic arm and his glove so he didn't have to ask as Lothar quietly held both items out to him. Mandrake nodded before rolling up his mostly empty sleeve before using his telekinesis to lift both the glove and bionic limb out of Lothar's hands. He then took ahold of his bionic arm with his remaining hand before attaching it to the remaining part of his arm before testing it out and was satisfied to see everything seemed good as new. Then he rolled down his sleeve before snatching his glove out of the air and pulling it on over the hand of the bionic limb. After that the Wizardmon seemed more relaxed.

Mandrake looked at Lucia and said "Don't worry about it too much. The only silver lining I could see from that night was that my oldest barely remembers that night and didn't see me losing my arm." Mandrake wasn't the only one who was traumatized by the events regarding the parasite that forced them to resort to amputating Mandrake's arm to save his life. Lothar still felt guilty for having to be the one to cut off Mandrake's arm. At least they were able to destroy the parasite so it wouldn't hurt anyone else.
Lilly, meanwhile, giggled at being called cute as well as being nuzzled. Lilly seemed to be a social butterfly and thrived being around others. When Lucia asked about Lothar, Mandrake nodded before he said "Yes he is a digimon. This is my fiance Lothar and he is Lilly's other father." Lilly squeaked a greeting at Lothar before laughing as Maria tossed her into the air and caught her.

As Maria carried Lilly over to Mandrake and Lothar, Mandrake used his telekinesis to gently lift Lilly out of Maria's hands causing the little one to giggle as she floated over into Lothar's waiting hands. The baby digimon was absolutely tiny compared to Lothar as she fit in her larger father's hand with room to spare.
Seeing as the girls seemed surprised at the word fiancé Mandrake chuckled before he said "Yes I keep forgetting that humans can be confused regarding how two males can be planning to marry. This is not so odd here in the Digital World as no pairings are considered all that odd." Then when mentioned that Lilly had two fathers and that it was cool, Mandrake said "It's good to see you aren't weirded out by the fact that our children have two fathers. Unlike humans both our eldest and youngest share our data. Our middle child was a street orphan we adopted when he was in his in training stage."
Then Lothar looked at their giggling daughter, Lilly, before looking at Mandrake as he asked "Mandrake, who are these two anyway?"
"This is Maria and her sister....I'm sorry young lady but you never introduced yourself." Mandrake said looking a bit embarrassed for not asking earlier.

Maria smilied a bit and nodded in Understandment."Well it feels true."Maria said. Lucia sighed and smiled remembering an adult male couple they met some years ago and they go used to that fact real quickly. "Oh really, So you adopted a kid!"She said happily.
Lucia bowed a bit."I'm lucia but my sister call me lulu."She said. Maria grinned a bit."And i'm maria like Mr. MAndrake said."Maria said. She seemed a bit surprised that He forgot his twin sister name.

"Yes shortly after our eldest son LJ left to be on his own Lothar and I were in a beachside town called Whitewater. It was there we found a Dorimon named Kshin. Poor thing was terrified when Lothar and I found him. Knowing we just couldn't leave him on the streets we decided to adopt him. Apparently pirates had murdered his mother, father, and grandfather and those same pirates dropped Kshin off on the streets of Whitewater where he was living with a gang of rookie level dragon digimon and the gang often stole to get what they needed. To think if we didn't meet the leader of the gang trying to trick us so he could pick our pockets we would of never found Kshin." Mandrake said.
Meanwhile Lothar had set Lilly on his shoulder before taking off his backpack and rummaging through it before bringing out what looked like a picture and handed it to Mandrake before placing his backpack back on before Lilly settled back into one of his hands. Mandrake looked at the picture seeing it was of himself, Lothar, their Leomon X son LJ who was wearing black ninja style clothing and a blue cape, their adopted son Kshin who was a Gumdramon with amber eyes but lacking the scar on the forehead Gumdramon were known for, A Gammamon named Grace that was Kshin's friend and traveling companion, and Lilly was nestled in Mandrake's hand sporting a smile. The last figure was Mandrake's father who was a Jijimon named Theron. He was standing just next to Mandrake given he was also pretty short.
Mandrake then showed the girls the family picture as he said "Once again it is nice to meet both of you. Here is a picture of our family minus Lothar's parents plus Kshin's new friend Grace."
