"Right...what was it that he said? Something about a scanner..." the child mumbled to herself as she walked, a slight frown on her face as she tried to move through the crowds of people. She never realized how packed it could get here! She heard a sigh from the "plushy" in her arms.
"He said there was a scanner here, one that would only open to a Digivice! And that there'd be some sorta train Digimon, and...ooh, Paige, go over there! I wanna look at the train! Paaaige, please~" the cat-like being said, though she wasn't struggling to escape. Paige had made sure she knew how bad things might be if someone spotted her moving by herself.
"We can't. We've gotta find the scanner, Nyaromon." she whispered back to her partner, counting her blessings that the other, smaller Digimon out of the pair was asleep. She was also a handful, and much more mischievous. Paige wasn't sure if that was because she was still smaller than Nyaromon or what.
"It's over there." Nyaromon's somewhat disappointed voice broke her out of her thoughts and, indeed, over there was what looked like a scanner, with very few people near it. Not surprising, given the station beyond it looked abandoned. Shrugging her shoulders, she walked over and stealthily took out her Digivice, just watching as it was scanned and...just as Kai had said, it worked like a charm. Another quick glance around (though she was sure with so many people no one would notice her) and she had slipped past the scanner, and to the train terminal beyond.
"...Wow. I never realized how big these places are." she commented outloud, glancing around as she moved closer to the platform. There wasn't anyone around at all, and again like Kai had said, there was a train just sitting there. Was it really a Digimon...?
"Is Kai coming?" Nyaromon spoke up, curiosity in her voice. Ah...that was right. The Digimon had never met the boy, and Paige figured it would be the perfect time for that to happen now that she was going to the Digital World. Plus, he HAD said to call if she did that.
Of course, he hadn't picked up. So she'd been forced to leave a quick voice mail, just stating she'd be heading to the Digital World. Hopefully he got it.

"Wha... Dammit! DAMMIT!" Kai's swearing woke up Kuro, who was sleeping in his bag. "Kai? Is something wrong?" Kai was recently changed, after practicing with the school baseball team. But, during his practice, he'd missed an important phone call. "Yes, something's wrong! I told her, not to go to the Digital World alone!" He grabbed the bag with his two Digimon partners in it, and started running towards the train station.
This wasn't good. He couldn't protect her in the Digital World, not by himself! He needed someone who was strong enough to protect Paige. Yui, maybe? She'd saved him, after all. Maybe Ren, but he hadn't bothered getting contact details. Scout... Scout also was a good choice. Plus, his brother had just become a tamer. Takahiro would need to enter the Digital World eventually. He whipped out his phone, and shot a text to the other boy. 'Hey Scout, if you have the time, grab Takahiro and meet me at the Shibuya Train Terminal.'

Scout gets the text just as he gets home. The bagels in his hands almost go to the floor as he tries to juggle them and get to his phone. Aw. He'd wanted to eat these fresh bagels wi--dammit. Yeah, BlackAgumon immediately steals the bagels and practically swallows them whole.
"Seriously?"
"Seriously, Kid."
"Nngh," He looks over the text, "Oh, it's from Kai!" He ignores the snort of laughter from BlackAgumon, "Train Terminal? Huh. Well, that's ominous," Scout walks across the room and checks his brother's door. No, nobody there. Just the Digitama and the D-3, lying on the bed. With a sigh, he lifts up the egg and places it carefully into his shoulder satchel, before slipping the D-3 into his pocket.
Walking back out, he pulls out a memory card he'd gotten back when he first met BlackAgumon, and taps it against his friend's head, storing him as digital information. Classy. Shoving the card in his pocket, he heads out, texting Takahiro as he goes.
'little hawk, meet me at shibuya station asap.'

Takahiro gets the text message just as he steps into the video game store. He grumbles, looking at the message. Oh, sure, it's always when he's about to do something important. Ignoring the ridiculousness of that thought, the thirteen year old turns on his heel and starts back out of the store.
Should he go get that egg, maybe? And that...thing? The device? No. If he needs them, Scout'll have them. If there's one thing he can say about his older brother, it's that he's reliable. And crazy. He texts back as he starts to jog.
'on my way, giant pigeon'

"He might be. I dunno for sure though...he didn't answer," she explained to her Digimon as she circled the 'train', a curious look on her face. And that look was mirrored by the Digimon she was holding as well. Why would a Digimon look like a train? Paige paused at that thought and glanced downwards. Then again, why would a Digimon look like a cat? Well...whatever.
It was a train, and Kai had said it would take her to the Digital World if she boarded it. Truth be told, she was just the slightest bit intimidated by what she might find there, a rare feeling for her. Usually she was confident in what she did, but this...was a complete unknown.
"C'mon! Let's get on the train already! If he ain't here he ain't here!" Nyaromon proclaimed, giggling as she tried to hop out of Paige's arms and to the train; Paige guessed she was partly excited because it was yet another 'human' thing to investigate. That is, if it wasn't a Digimon. The young girl merely sighed and tried to keep a tighter hold on her. "...I guess you're right. It's pointless to wait forever." she admitted, heading for the open door.

Kai burst into the station, having garnered more than a few glances and comments on his run to the station. There Paige was, about to get onto the train. "Hey! Paige! Wait up!" he called to the much younger girl. "Did I not tell you not to go to the Digital World alone!? Wait for a bit, I called a friend to come with us. He should be here any minute."
"Are you getting on or not?" The massive Digimon known as Trailmon blared.

Scout comes hurtling out of nowhere, his D-Scanner securely in his hand. It's almost like he doesn't know how to move like an ordinary person. "Kai!" he calls, skidding to a stop dangerously close to the other boy. "Whoa, too close," He backs off a step.
Well, wonderful.
He tosses the green D-3 back to his brother, "Stop leaving it lying around, Little Hawk, or I'm keeping it next time," he takes a deep breath as he recovers from the sprint. Why did he sprint here? "So! Kai, what's up, my man?"

Takahiro comes jogging up behind his brother, a few moments later, catching the Digivice that his elder had seemingly carelessly thrown in his general direction. He sighs, and puts it back into his pocket, after checking to make sure the loading icon is still there.
"Hello, again, Kai. It's nice to see you again, and...who's your friend?"

"Ah..." she trailed off, eyeing Kai with a blush. Her sense of adventure had gotten the better of her, and when he hadn't answered...well, she didn't want to wait any longer than she had to. "I was gonna have you come with, but then..." she trailed off as Trailmon spoke, causing her to jump before eyeing the train. It really was a Digimon!
"Y-Yes! I'll...I'll get on soon, I promise. I'm sorry for making you wait, Mr. Trailmon!" she answered politely, bowing her head to the Digimon, earning a slight giggle from Nyaromon.
That was when she turned to Kai's two friends, eyeing them in surprise; one even looked close to her age! "I'm Paige! I met Kai a few days ago." she answered with a smile.

"Yes, and when we met, I told her very specifically not to go to the Digital World without an escort." He gave the little girl a stern glare. She might be young, and he did want to forgive her, but if he wasn't stern, she wouldn't learn. "Well, she did call me, so I guess she didn't completely ignore me. Anyways, when I got the message, I called you," He was speaking to Scout, "Since you're one of the few people I know who can actually protect us if we're attacked. Then I figured, hey, if we're in the Digital World anyways, why not introduce Takahiro to it? Maybe it'll help his digi-egg hatch." Kai noted that Scout had it, rather than Takahiro. That was interesting.
"Who cares! Let's get going!" Shiro dashed through the open door, so Kai shrugged and followed him. Lucky! He'd expected to have to wait for Scout and Takahiro to come until the next train! It was good to have someone reliable like Scout with them. Even if something happened, BlackGeoGreymon could keep Paige safe. "Something like that," he said, referencing the white Digimon's words.

Scout rubs the back of his neck, "Oh, uh, right. Protect you. Yeah! Yeah! I can do that," What. "I brought B with me, he's in my D-Scanner at the minute, or whatever. So we should be good," He looks back at Takahiro, and then yanks him over by the back of his vest. He opens the boy's backpack, and moves the Digitama from his satchel to the younger Evans' bag with a snort.
"It's nice to meet you, Paige! I'm Scout, and this is my dorky little brother Takahiro," Scout offers probably the friendliest smile that anyone has ever seen in the history of both universes. Unfortunately, Scout doesn't contain himself as well, this time, and gives Kai a surprisingly strong hug. He doesn't seem to care whether Kai opposes. Repeat visitors get hugs, it would seem. Well, alright. He quickly steps back, and waits, smiling.

Takahiro makes an exaggerated 'choking' sound as his brother yanks him over. Bah. This egg is heavy. A couple of kilos at least, way more than it looks. Why can't Scout carry it? He's the oldest! "You can...just call me Taka," he informs the other girl, who seems to be around his own age.
This whole thing is crazy, but at least he finally gets to go and see this Digital World he's heard so much about. Maybe Scout'll fight some Digimon, or they'll meet a Digimon that's also a castle! No, that'd be weir--that train has a face, and is watching them.

"Uhm..." she flinched, a frown on her face as she eyed the ground. Paige wasn't really used to disappointing others, not when she worked her hardest, but...she had here, hadn't she? "Sorry," she spoke up, glancing upwards at Kai to give him an apologetic smile.
She truly was sorry for having not waited for him to get here; a few more moments and she might be on Trailmon right now, riding away alone (aside from her partners of course) to the Digital World. "Regardless! It's a pleasure to meet each of you!" she said a moment later, giving them a small bow. Always the polite one, she was.
"I'm Nyaromon. Nice to meet you." the Digimon in her arms spoke up, a bit more quietly than usual. Paige glanced down, arching a brow. Maybe she just wasn't good with strangers...? Well, that could be worked on!
...Speaking of Digimon, Paige was somewhat surprised her other partner had managed to sleep through this. Then again, she WAS still a baby, compared to Nyaromon.
"Sorry for dragging all of you with me on this." Paige spoke up as she walked into the train after Kai, giving smiles at the others as she spoke.
