Izanami's breathing was slow and pained, she feeling like she was about to vomit. She felt her face touching what felt like the softest grass she had ever had the virtue to lay upon, the sound of running water nearby. Slowly, she managed to gather the strength to open her eyes; she managing to sit up.
The girl's vision was blurry, but she could make out what looked like miles of beautiful gardens, the only thing resembling a manmade-structure being various marble columns that dotted the landscape. The stars in the night sky were the only source of light in the entirety of this area, they littering the dark night in countless numbers. She had woke up nearby what looked like a waterfall built out of a large boulder, water pouring out of a hole and into a pond filled with an assortment of beautiful water plants and fish.
Frankly, Izanami was bewildered by the sights around her... this place being perhaps the most wonderous place she has ever been to. It was almost worthy of being called heaven... Which only then did the girl realize something particularly horrifying. "... Am I... dead?" She'd ask aloud, the look on her face being that of both bewilderment and terror.
"No. We are alive..." A small voice would speak out to her, causing her to jump in panic as she scrambled onto her feet. It was only then did she realize it was the strange blob-like gem Digimon from before... It was apparently here too. The creature was staring at her side... Izanami realizing that she still had that strange device with her.
Picking it up, she noticed that on the screen was a pixelated sprite of what looked the Digimon bobbing up and down on the LED screen of the device. For what felt like minutes, the girl tried to wrap her head as to what was going on here; her mind drawing blanks. She remembered that she was in her room talking with this little creature, brought up the strange device... and before she knew it; she was stuck here.
What was going on here? And why did it have to happen to her of all people?

"Whaddya mean I can't get into the pearly gates?"
Most Digimon didn't have the guts to argue with the gatekeepers of the City of Luminas, but this mouthy Dokunemon wasn't like most Digimon. He angrily paced back and forth before a Piddomon, occasionally kicking some dirt at the angel's pristine shoes. "I worked my stinger off to get up to this place!"
"It appears to me that you smuggled yourself in a traveler's bag and tried to break into here," the Piddomon said, voice serene. "The City of Luminas is for the Digimon World's noblest heroes to put their weary heads to rest. Trying to break into it is, well . . ." This worm was trying to break its way into heaven! How did it think that was even remotely a good idea?
"Oooh, I'm weary alright, Mr. Posh Guy," it squeaked. "You know how many birds are in the sky? You know how many birds see a fat, juicy, handsome worm like me and decide 'hmmm, lets eat that!' I had to fend off, like, 74 attacks on my life just to get up here. Forget a hero! I am a Homeostasis-damned legend! And you're really not gonna let me in?"
"Well, you just spoke our lord and master's name in vain while standing at the front doors of his domain," Piddomon pointed out. "Oh, my child, you have much to learn before-"
"Don't you oh my child me," the Dokunemon interrupted. "You ain't no butterfly. Hell, you're not even some ugly-ass moth. No, you're a guy with wings. We aren't even in the same Digimon family. So don't give me that oh my child stuff. Now, are you gonna let me in, or am I gonna have to jump off this continent and inch my damn way over to Terminus City? I bet they'd know how to treat a legend."
"Perhaps some reflection may be all it takes," the Piddomon said, trying to divert this issue. "Perhaps if you meditate for a while, you will find what you need to enter?"
Ha! Now that was more up Dokunemon's alley. Everyone knew "meditate" was slang for "nap" anyway. Dokunemon waved to Piddomon and slinked off, ready to catch some quality zzzs. It nestled up in a small ball, tucking its head into its tail and slowly drifting off to dream land.
At least, that was a plan until a human suddenly fell in the way. "Oh! Oh! And then there's this clown!" the Dokunemon protested, angrily waving its tail at Izanami. "Hi, my name's trying to sleep. Lovely freaking day we're having, isn't it?"
This was going to be a long day.

Izanami frankly had a lot of questions that were practically screeching in the back of her head, wanting answers to them as soon as possible. She was visibly confused and distraught, not a single clue as to her whereabouts. Unfortunately for her though, she did not have much time due to having landed nearby a rather angry creature.
The green larval creature caused the girl to immediately scream in horror, she backing off several steps from it as it aggressively pointed its stinger at her. "Wh-what the hell even are you?! And don't get angry at me, I just freaking got here!" The girl would yell defensively panic as she grabbed and held the small blob-like Digimon close to her chest, as if it were a mere toy. She didn't like the looks of the completely alien creature... it's bug-like appearance already horrified her enough, but the way it spoke and angrily gestured at her made start to fear for her life.
Meanwhile the small In-Training Digimon currently being strangled by the girl's hands was noticeably deadpan, squinting in mild disapproval at the DoKunemon's reaction to them. Her instincts always suggested to her that other Digimon were likely hostile, but she had believed that there were perhaps a few outliers... but she supposed unlikely if THIS were their welcome to the Digital World. "Are all Digimon this hostile...? I would have hoped that not all of my kind were so savage." She would snidely speak aloud, not approving the DoKunemon's attitude one bit.
Izanami's sanity and patience for everything going on right now was quickly droping, she taking a cautious step back away from the bug's sharp stinger. Her heart rate was through the roof right now, she not having a clue as what to do. Swiftly she began trying to think... the gem-faced blob called this thing a Digimon. Did that mean they were technically the same? Or was Digimon just like a much broader term or something? She had no clue, but the one thing that was on her mind was that she wanted nothing to do with this grub. "Y-yo, say something actually useful! Tell him to lay off for a second! I've done nothing wrong here!" The girl would quickly plead to the Digimon in her arms, hoping that perhaps it could diffuse the situation.
The gem-like Digimon stared down at the larva Digimon in the human's hands, as if looking down at it in a haughty manner. She too did not want anything to do with the rude Virus Digimon, she preferring if it just left her and her new partner in peace. Unfortunately for her, she was not very skilled at expressing this desire in a charismatic manner. "Please leave you disgusting, crude ruffian. We have no time to deal wi-" The In-Training would deadpanly began to speak to the larval-like Digimon, though was promptly interrupted by the human girl immediately dashing off from the DoKunemon; not wanting to see his reaction.
Deep down, Izanami secretly wished to punch the damned thing for saying something so unimaginably dumb to something that was obviously pissed at them enough already.

"Yeah? Well that makes two of us, sweet cheeks. Except only one of us woke the other out of a nice, relaxing nap, ya dig?" Dokunemon asked. His antennae quivered in irritation, and the electric markings on his face seemed to narrow somewhat in annoyance. "As for what the hell even I am, ain't it obvious?" He stretched up to his full size, spreading his stumpy little legs in what tried to look like a cool pose. It wasn't very cool in the slightest, but that self-satisfied grin on his beak implied it was a success to at least somebody here. "The name's Dokunemon. And I'm a goddamn legend."
Or maybe he was a hostile ruffian. That diverted his attention from tamer to Digimon real quick. Oooh, if he had a vein it'd be popping in irritation right now! "And who're you to judge, Stumpy?" Dokunemon asked, advancing slowly towards the group. "Crude? Crude? That stings, bud. I'll have you know I'm a sensitive soul, and- Hey! Wait! I ain't done teaching you punks a lesson yet!" This slow advance turned into a run as soon as Izanami started making a break for it, Dokunemon lowering himself to the ground and scuttling after her at top speed.
The two were evenly paced for a while, but soon Dokunemon had an idea. He hopped up into the air, flicking his tail up to catch his stinger in his beak. By the time he landed on the ground he was curled up into a nice, tight wheel, rolling forward and to the side to try and cut Izanami off. He went in a large half-circle, aiming to be right in front of her so he could continue his tongue-lashing. Unfortunately, he seemed to overestimate himself. The technique left him in a daze, and when he uncurled he was left swirling in place from how dizzy he had made himself.
That didn't stop him from resuming the rant, of course. He reached out and flicked a claw in a menacing point. "There you are! Now, where was I?" he asked, clearing his throat and preparing to pontificate. "Oh yeah! First of all; rude! Not all of us could go to Agumon University and learn how to be a dictionary, you know? Second of all; I ain't violent. Who told you I was violent? I'll kick their ass! Thirdly, disgusting? With a face like this? Either your swinging with supermodels, or you've just got some bad taste. 'Cause damn I'm fine!" Unfortunately, he had things a little twisted; he was currently pointing at open air, facing away from Izanami. Maybe in his daze, he wouldn't notice if she slipped away before the fourth point.

The Dokunemon appropriately did not seem to notice or care for the girl's panicked state, not giving much room to breathe easy as it crept closer. Even when she attempted to dash away from the chattering bug, it STILL was persistent in it's attempt to speak with her. Izanami could not help but let out a startled yelp as the creature managed to zip by her, causing her to trip up slightly. Thankfully it too seemed to also had it's balance knocked a bit off; though this not stop it from continuing it's talk.
Honestly at this point, the girl was sick and tired of the persistent insect's boisterous personality. It's sheer lack of apathy plus refusal to leave her alone aggravated her greatly. Couldn't this damn thing get the hint that she not only did not want to be here, but that she didn't want to talk to HIM. "Look man, I don't care about whether you are a Dokuneman or whatever the hell you are; just leave me alone!"
The girl's face was seething red, she bending down and picking up a small stone; hurling it at Dokunemon. Admittingly her aim was off, it just barely missing him; but her feelings to the viridian insect were made clear. Unfortunately for her, her rage was keeping HER in place; as if expecting the bug to scram.
For the Carbumon whom was now on the ground, it's mood has not seemed to change at all. Indeed, the whole time this was going on; an almost apathetic look was on it's face. She didn't seem to really care to try and understand the human girl's sudden tantrum, instead concentrating on the Dokunemon. While it denied violent tendencies, gut instinct told her to stand her ground. The Rookie was clearly deranged, though she refused to try and fight unless it dared to attack them. She had waited nearly two hundred years to be freed from her stone-like form as a Fresh level, she wasn't planning to risk deletion this soon.
Which depending on how Dokunemon reacts to the girl's outrage, that is definitely a possibility if she couldn't match him.

"Whoa!" Dokunemon shouted as the rock sailed past his head. He whirled around to face Izanami anew, his dizziness from earlier being righted by his sudden turn. "Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa! The heck was that all about, missy? I'm just tryin' to talk with ya!" He started skittering up to the girl, approach slow and oddly rhythmic. His big head seemed to sway back and forth with each motion, until soon he had inched right back up to her position.
"Unless, of course, you're looking for trouble." Its beak snapped open and shut a few times, as if in anticipation of its challenge being accepted. " 'Cause, uh, you've been causing me a whole lotta stress. Making a poor worm run around after such a big day. Being so rude to a guy that just had a few questions. And now you're flinging rocks at my head? Sounds like you could use an attitude adjustment, if ya catch my drift. C'mere!"
It didn't seem to be using any full attacks for now, but it swung its big, heavy head right at Izanami's shins. With Rocky having fallen quiet, Izanami right now was the full target of Dokunemon's ire. That meant if anyone was getting attacked, it was her. Only question was, how far would this punk be willing to go to teach that lesson he was talking about earlier?

Izanami glared at the viridian insect with daggers in her eyes, a maddening headache dulling her senses. At this point she wasn't even listening to the bug at this point, too consumed by her horrid tempert to care. "Just leave me alone you STUPID BUG!" She'd screech at the Dokunemon, though before she could try anything else; she was rushed into. The teen was caught off guard, the bug's sudden rush at her not giving her enough time to even try to get away. The Dokunemon's headbutt directed towards the girl lead to his sharp beak scraping part of the girl's leg, causing her to shout in pain. Blood was drawn, though only a small bit.
Unfortunately for the Dokunemon, it was about to receive a rather harsh lesson if it was not careful; Izanami not taking a moment's hesitation to react angrily at it. While the girl was still not completely back into the groove of things when it came to her soccer game, one thing that the girl prided on was that she was the star kicker of her school's girl's soccer team. What this equated to was that the incoming knee-jerk kick directed into the bug's face was going to hit QUITE hard should it land.
This was the first moment that the Carbunmon actually began to react in a meaningful way, the Lesser Digimon flinching at seeing the human girl attacked. The Dokunemon was now angered, but that kick in the face was sure to upset them greatly. The Carbunmon didn't know everything about humans, but there was one thing that the In-Training knew was that a regular human stood no chance towards a Digimon with intent to harm or kill. "Human! Stop dawdling! Run!" The small creature would attempt to yell to the girl, hoping that the potential opening the girl just made could give them time to escape.
For a brief moment, the girl's attention was grabbed by the small fluffy rock-faced Digimon; though unfortunately for her this left her unaware of their attacker's next move.

The Dokunemon's face wrinkled up in disgust at the weird, stinky red substance on its beak. "Oh, what the heck is this crap now?" he asked, rubbing his face onto the grass to try and get it off. Of course, that just got the taste of grass in his mouth, the Dokunemon spitting that up as well. "Jeez, lady, you just keep makin' my day worse and worse, don't you?" he demanded, as if her bleeding on him was her fault. The nerve of this guy, right?
Unfortunately for Dokunemon, and fortunately for everyone who was sick of his shit, Izanami took him up on that offer. As Dokunemon popped himself back off the ground, her boot made solid contact with his head. A tiny explosion could practically be heard as the connection was made, Dokunemon not even getting to ask what the heck happened before he went sailing off into the distance. If Izanami had been worried about her kicking form, she would be quite relieved to see the beautiful arc Dokunemon made from the ground to a nearby tree, vanishing into its leaves and branches. If there was a crowd, they would be applauding that sheer perfection.
If there was any worry about the attacker's next move, thankfully, he didn't seen present enough to be making a next move. The cost was clear for Izanami . . . for now.

The Carbunmon could not help but be shocked to see the human girl's kick into the green worm... actually be very effective. She didn't even know it was possible for humans to have this much strength... she could have swore that she saw the Dokunemon flying through the air before embedding themselves in a tree nearby. Needless to say, the In-Training was shocked. "... I thought humans were weak?" It'd mutter in disbelief, slightly shivering.
Izanami would not have been lying if she said that she felt a LOT better. Seeing that stupid bug sail through the air like that was enough to improve the girl's mood considerably, she letting out a slight chuckle and a victorious smile. While her leg was twanging in pain, sheer guts alone made Izanami ignore it for the most part. "Yeah yeah... Keep talking ya dumb rock." Izanami would mutter, she bending down and picking the In-Training Digimon.
While victorious for now, the In-Training still feared for their lives. There were too many possibilities that could go wrong here that she didn't want to take any risks here. "We should get moving before he tries and follow us. Human, you don't know how dangerous us Digimon can be! If he sincerely tries to kill you... there is nothing I can do to stop him!" The Dokunemon may had been a mere Rookie, which in the grand scheme of things was not the strongest thing in the Digital World... but what if they had the power to evolve to higher levels? A Rookie level can be fatal, but a Champion level would mean guranteed death. Without any ability to potentially match their aggressor in strength, the only option they had was to run.
"I'd LIKE to see him try." Izanami would mutter to herself, not at all willing to put up with that damned bug for much longer. Still, if this weird rock creature was worried; there was something she did not know but it did. For now, it was her only source of info; as much as she didn't want to admit it. "Where the hell do we go then? And more importantly, where am I?"
The Carbunmon looked hesitantly at the tree, then back to Izanami. They were running out of time. "Please, let us hurry. I... I will explain when we are safe." The In-Training Digimon pleaded, her voice growing more and more urgent.
As much as Izanami wanted to say otherwise, she had to trust the little creature. While running with a bit of a limp, she began to try and put some distance between them and where the Dokunemon was.
Shame Izanami was oblivious to the fact that they were essentially near the edge of a floating island... and they were heading into the direction of a dead-end.
