"I think the best plan is to convince them to come Terminus with me. I've ruled out just about everything else," Casper told Garm. Now was the time for him to suck it up for once and be brave. Surely the other three can't be all bad, right?

Go to Terminus with him? Well, he would explain soon enough. Grabbing the Bakemon, Garm would head to where the others were, taking to the roofs quickly at a fairly high speed. He had their scents already and they certainly wouldn't have gotten far.
When he did find them, he would land in front of the other group, Bakemon in tow.
"Don't worry, Korra. Apparently this Bakemon isn't hostile." The Bakemon Casper already knew Salla and Artemis. Might as well let Korra know that he's friendly as well.

Salla and Co watched as Garm landed in front of them with... Casper? "Well I suppose I'd rather him be friendly than simply running away," Korra stated. "Yeah, I'm sorry you guys had to get involved," Casper apologized. "It's no big deal. Doing something dangerous is usually in my job description," Korra replied. "Would now be the right time to remind you that those other three could get free soon?" Artemis pointed out. "Luna's got a point," Korra agreed. "Please, call me Artemis." "Anyway, there's no telling if any more are on their way," Korra continued.
"You'd think a few Champions could handle capturing a Tamer and a Rookie level, wouldn't you?" Casper asked. "Sounds about right," Salla agreed, pretending to know what Casper was talking about. Of course Champion was obviously better than Rookie.

With everyone together again they spoke about potential aid coming for the ones who captured Salla and Artemis. Casper made some ironic comment about some champions having difficulty keeping a hold of them, but Garm shook his head.
"This Bakemon apparently has been undermining their attempts, and as a Mega leveled digimon 3 Bakemon aren't going to pose much of any threat. Not to mention that since Vetina also aided in you and your tamer's escape, Artemis, they should be lucky they caught her on a good day. I admit I've never seen Vetina use her full strength but I do know she's not to be underestimated.
Anyway, we probably don't have to worry so much, but only as long as you three remain careful.
I've duties elsewhere in Whitewater, and this Bakemon wants to take his 'friends' to Terminus. I'm certain that Korra can take care of you just fine, but I'm not sure about the Bakemon."

"Actually, the Trailmon I told them to take is scheduled to Whitewater. I thought it might be a good place for them to stay a while after what they must've gone through," Korra told Garm. "I've got connections all over the place, so even if they can't stay at Caritas, I'm sure could find a place they could stay," she explained. "You sure do get around, huh?" Salla asked, seeming somewhat impressed. "Let's just say that I've had more than my fair share of jobs over the years," Korra replied.
"I doubt our boss would send anyone all the way over there, especially if they've got a Mega level protecting them. If the Chaos Gallantmon he's working for wants them that badly, he'll at least send a Mega after them, and his strongest minions are Ultimate level at best, and each pretty busy as it is," Casper explained. "So basically, once we're across the Macro Ocean, we'll be in the clear for now?" Artemis asked. "That's the idea, but Chaos Gallantmon has all sorts of underground operations all over the place. I don't know where exactly or what, but I know some of my comrades have been sent to some sort of mining operation," Casper replied.
"Sounds like to me for whatever reason he abducted me from my world, it's a lot bigger than just a kidnapping," Salla stated. "It is. There was also another escapee before you, one that didn't get my help. This one was a Stingmon. I haven't been around long enough to know his story though," Casper explained. "I guess we'll have to keep an eye out for him while I'm looking for my brother," Salla said. "I guess I'd better get going. Stay safe you two," Casper told them before floating off. "You too. I wouldn't have escaped without your help," Salla replied. "Now then, shall we get going?"

Garm watched Casper fly off wondering whether or not he'll be alright. Perhaps he should be given a "staged" injury so it looks like he was beaten up a bit while the other escaped.
Granted there were far better plans than that without causing harm onto him.
The group was heading his way, and Garm took the lead.
"If you two are allowed to stay at Caritas, you probably will be made to work there. Granted, Korra can attest that working there isn't an issue. But even if you don't get to stay, it would be best to meet up with the owner at some point.
Consider yourselves fortunate. Beverly and Ghost aren't pushovers, and if a good word is put in for you two you'll be safe as long as you're careful.
And as long as you don't start trouble in Caritas. I don't say this out of distrust... just as fair warning."

"Maybe I should dust off my old waitress outfit for old time's sake," Korra said as the group resumed their path. "As long as she doesn't ask me to cook, I'll probably be fine," Salla said half jokingly. Too bad Nova wasn't there. He would definitely be able to handle cooking.

"You didn't look too bad in that outfit despite it not quite being you."
Garm had spoken in a flat tone. Of course, it was a complement on her appearance in a maid outfit, but there was no romantic undertone behind it. Of course, Korra would well know that he was taken already.
"As for you two... I'm Garm. I know your name, Artemis, but I never got the human's name. In any case, Caritas is a nightclub, not a restaurant. You won't have to worry about lack of culinary skills."

"I suppose it isn't, but it would probably help if I didn't already sell my holosuit of a regular Renamon so I could look friendlier without it," Korra replied. "What's a Holosuit?" Artemis asked. "A Holosuit is a device you can buy in Terminus that projects a hologram over its user so that they can look like something else. They're usually used by Digimon who want to go to the human world to disguise themselves as humans, or in my case, I used one to disguise myself as a regular Renamon," Korra explained. Korra's explanation did give Salla a few ideas.
"My name's Salla Ozuka," Salla introduced herself. "As you already know, I escaped a group of Bakemon with Vetina's help. This all started a few weeks ago when a portal to the Digital World opened below my feet and dropped me an Artemis into the Grotto of Sorrow while I was meeting my brother. Unfortunately I don't know if he's in this world or if he's worrying his head off back home," she explained. "I'm sure you'll learn his whereabouts soon enough," Korra told her.

"Fair enough, Korra. I have a holosuit that serve the same purpose. I don't wish to scare off customers so I need a normal Gaomon appearance." Despite being on good terms with the Renamon Garm never told her what happened to him. Not out of any pity for himself, moreso because it just never came up.
"And forgive me for being presumptuous, Salla, but I think that if your brother saw you get taken, and from the looks of it knows about digimon already, he might be in this world.
I've an acquaintance... brother of a former co-worker by the name Tab, a Liquidramon. He's a rather chatty one and is quite sociable. I make no guarantees, but he could probably keep an eye out for him. Although he might ask to interview you first."

"Somehow I doubt that he's seen a Digimon before I have. Heck, Artemis wasn't even the second Digimon I've met, and she's my Digimon partner. If he is here, he would've had to learn about Digimon the hard way," Salla told them. It was true that Nova saw Artemis in her Yukimi Botamon form. Salla had told him she was a toy, but she doubted Nova bought it completely. Probably because he knows she doesn't own any stuffed animals or the like. Plus Nova would've shown her the Digital World if he had been there. Artemis didn't seem the least bit surprised about hearing that Salla saw two Digimon before her.
She vaguely remembered seeing Salla chatting with two Tamers and their Digimon after finding her Digivice. "After hearing about that bit about the Holo Suits, I do have to wonder how many people in my world are actually Digimon in disguise," Salla mentioned. Perhaps one of her teachers in high school was a Digimon, or even her Karate instructor. It was certainly was an entertaining thought, even if nobody she knew was secretly a Digimon. Of course, little did they know, there was one person she knew that not only was secretly a Digimon, but secretly alive as well.

While Garm couldn't say much else involving Nova, not wanting to overstep his bounds, he did want to make a few more comments about holosuits.
"I've heard from Beverly that more often than not when she heads to the human world she senses a digimon. They'll usually look like normal, everyday people, at least as far as I hear. But I did have a cousin that went to one of your human colleges for years and graduated with one of the higher degrees with the use of several holosuits. She currently works with an old... colleague of Beverly's under the name 'Dr. Girl Gaomon'.
She's a strange one, but I guess I know a lot of strange digimon."

"Tell me about it. I've had plenty of oddball clients in my rather... unsavory line of work," Korra told them. "I guess we all know at least one odd Digimon, huh?" Salla pointed out."Yes, Vetina was certainly an odd one, even if not one to be taken lightly," Artemis agreed. "Sometimes the whole oddball thing is just an act used to catch an enemy off-guard. A few of the Digimon I've ended up fighting had almost killed me after putting on the whole oddball act only for them to Digivolve and get the better of me," Korra warned.
"We know, we know, be careful when we get into kind of trouble," Salla stated, refraining herself from ending it with a "You worry too much." She had to admit, even Nova could worry as much as he normally did with everything she's already been through, and she wouldn't blame him. He might worry even more if he had any clue.

"Yes, you do have a point, some times it is an act. But I assure you, Korra... Vetina doesn't act odd. She is odd, period.
Also I might be remiss in not telling you that on your travels you might find an... overweight... pink Guilmon in a dress and scars over her body. Might be a good spot for info as well. Korry, remember That Guilmon? He worked for tha-..."
Garm sighed, needing a second to choose his words accordingly for Artemis and Salla. "My old colleague, named That Guilmon, worked for that... the pink guilmon I told you about. Her name is Lilly.
It's a bit hard to refer to him and Lilly in the same sentence."

Salla and Artemis nodded, understanding why Garm needed to pause. "Yeah, I remember him," Korra told him, not seeming to care being called Korry. Garm already knew it wasn't her real name anyway. "I think the only part of her description I wouldn't recognize is being a Guilmon since I haven't seen one before," Salla pointed out. "I think I can see the Trailmon Terminal," Korra stated. Sure enough, the Terminal was coming into view. It wouldn't be long before they moved on to Whitewater.
