It's 1 a.m who needs sleep. [OPEN 1/3]

    "Hurry! I have to hurry!" The girl yells as she sprints across the terminal, or else she was going to miss the last train! "Excuse me ma'am! Are you okay?" A voice says as she runs past in a panic, "Yeah...i'm just in a hurry! I'll talk later, okay, b-BYE!" she exclaims as she reaches towards the doors of the train, "Yes! I made it...phew holy i'm tired now" as she hunches over and catches her breath, she then notices a variety of Digimon and Humans? Or were they Digimon in a holo-suit like herself? She then walks over to an open seat on the benches to her right, still looking around and growing ever more anxious and nervous. As the train starts to move, she finds herself looking through a window, mesmerized by the scenery, the way it all seems to slowly shift into 1's and 0's. Her eyes start to close and she drifts off to sleep.

    'Hmmm maybe this isn't a good idea... Yeah, but finding Matt is our goal right now... But do you think we actually blend in?' she thought, then it clicked. Why was she having a conversation in her head with a male voice? What's going on here? The voice soon takes shape, is that Buster!? 'Bleeze, you gotta calm down,' He says as he goes to grab her hand, 'I don't know exactly what happened when we fell, but when I woke up I was in a strange place, and all I could think about was you, and that boy from that day, I wondered around aimlessly it seemed, talked to Hazahrid, who told me about that city. I bought that holo-suit on impulse, and when I put it on, I found myself in here, watching as you sprinted towards the train. Are we now one in the same? That's what I thought as you ran, and I think I'm right, I knew you were with me, but I never knew you were this close. Now let's go find Matt.' his smile soon fades into the dark as her eyes open up to see that they've ended up at the station in the Human World. Bleeze then smiles to herself and whispers "Thank you, Buster..." the smile she had on her face almost looked as she was relieved. 

    "Hmmmm I never knew a simple 'train' ride could be so relaxing, now we can finally find him..." She says as she leaves the train, as she steps out onto the platform, she immediately turns and hears an altercation amidst the talking of all the other people leaving the same train as her. Buster's voice rang in her head 'Better go check it out, I know we look like a girl, but we have to help' and she agreed fully, as she started to walk towards the voices, it was easy to tell that there were three voices, two of which were soft spoken males, and the other a female. Immediately thinking of the worst she hurried, more and more. As She got closer all she could hear was someone yell out "ALL RIGHT! Let's get some CHIPS!" a bit shocked from the turn of events she turned the corner where the shout originated from, all she could see was, who she assumed, were the three people 'fighting' walking away. 

    Once again she heard Buster's voice 'Best to follow them, don't need those two guys attacking her or leading her into a trap'. "Wow Buster, you're on a role today, you're right i should follow." and without hesitation she starts to slowly walk behind the group, keep her distance just like how Matt once directed her to do in Digital Dive. "I just need to be stealthy...wait...are they going to a store?" Bleeze then notices them all go into the building, and she see this weird girl just standing outside the window, just staring in. "Is this normal in these parts? Just to stand there and watch others do things?" she then also takes part in the girls weird actions and proceeds to start staring into the store. Something about the taller boy makes her pulse sporadically increase. 'Is, is that Matt?' Buster says inside her head, 'Is that really him?' As she continues to watch them talk she witnesses him put his hand on his face and seem to let out a deep breath.

    "Man, I realized what I said is not helping me in the slightest...but regardless of how it sounds, I actually want to continue doing stuff with you two, it might just be me, but you're both quite fun to be around. You've both added an interesting dynamic in my night, and frankly I kinda want to be apart of it." Matt declares as he walks on over to the register, "Umm, yes i'll be paying for these and his two bags as well...Okay thank you so much! You have yourself a great night okay? Take care!" Matt then finishes his exchange with the clerk and walks towards the doors again, as he opens the door looking back at the other two, he asks, "You two ready to go? Also, if you're having doubts about me you are allowed to go, I would rather not impose." He quickly flashes a smile towards Maia and Kuu. Matt then notices that there is now a second girl standing at the window, he suddenly feels his chest hurt, as it swells faster and faster, his heartbeat is starting to become unbearable, all he can hear the thumping inside his chest. He drops his bag of chips; as they spill all over the ground.

    The brown haired girl hears the ruffling of the chips as they hit the ground. She looks at him with a sense of pure excitement, "MATT!! We've finally found you!!" as the girl walks towards him. Matt's left with an expression of pure shock, "Y-y-you're supposed to be dead..." are the only words that he can muster up to say at the girl now standing before him...

---

 

  "Ughh...h-h-how'...how're you here right now?" Matt said softly as he glanced down at his hands, all he could see was the images of her flash through his mind as if he was reliving that day, over and over. "Y-yo-you can't be here...I saw you...I saw everything...everything..." The girl quickly grabbed his hands and spoke softly, "Shhhhh, no need to panic so much...it's a lot to take in right now, but just think we finally found you!" The girl then pulls Matt in close for a hug, "It's okay, we'll explain everything soon enough..." and at that moment it clicked in Matt's head. 'We? It's only just her...' but before he could say anything the girl spoke once more. "Who is that girl with you? Maaaaaaan she's CUTE! Erm...did i say that aloud?" when the girl spoke this time her voice changed it went from a soft spoken female to a grumbly male's voice.

    "Okay, wait one moment, what the actual hell is going on?" Matt says as he pushes away from the girl, but the girl didn't even seem to hear his words as she quickly walked over towards Maia, the girls demeanor quickly changed to that of a prepubescent boy, she out stretched her arm along the frame of the store door, she seemed to glance quickly at Maia's figure, then spoke in a grumbly voice: "Hey, baby how'ya doing?" before the grumbly voice could speak again, soft words filled the air with an "Oh my god BUSTER! We just got here!" The girl then quickly stopped striking a pose and looked at the group. "Matt i'm so sorry for Buster, we didn't mean to make a commotion out of all of this, but here take this, and come find us when you're ready..." As she spoke Matt could see tears fall gently down her cheeks, he wanted to reach out, but something prevented him from doing anything...

    The girl left a small pink device on the ground before she fled the scene. Matt picked it up and wondered what it was, he thought about asking Maia, but he didn't want to be a burden to her anymore, he looked towards Kuu and Maia, while brushing his eyes with the back of his hand he asks: "You two still want to go tot he park?" He then looks towards the street, lets out a soft sigh as he then looks to the starry night sky.

    "Why is she leaving?" Was all that echoed inside Matt's mind right now, that was a good question really. Why? Who? Just who was that? And why did they? It? Look so much like her...? "Why is she leaving? Why is she leaving?" The words seemed to just run through his mind but yet he paid no attention to them, the look on his face as that of a translucent visage. He couldn't amass words even for a second to respond to everything that was going on. Matt felt as if everything just stood still, motionless in this cryptic image of a lost friend. Then the words; "Are you sure you want to?" seemed to pull him out of his trance like state, he then looked towards both Maia and Kuu, and without hesitation he gave a soft smile, trying to hide the raw emotions he was holding back.

    "Yeah...I think that's best. If I stay with you two, I know for a fact i'll be distracted enough...and besides, I agree with Kuu, we should go to the park." As Matt spoke he was able to see that Kuu had gotten closer and was waving the bag in front of him, in a gesture to share. He averted his gaze from the chip bag towards Maia, it was almost as mesmerizing as a midnight sky without clouds, the way her silhouette contrasted with the light from the store, the way her blonde hair shimmered under the moonlight, the way her eyes showed concern within an autumn nights sky, at this moment, he felt calm, he felt so at peace, that he knew that if he was able to become friends with her and Kuu, everything would just fall into place...

    He quickly shakes his head, looks back up towards the night sky. 'Okay..just breathe, everything will be alright...i hope' Matt then looks at the ground, then his hands, he continues to look at the pink object, ever so perplexed by it. "Hey, I ugh, so what exactly is this?" He asks both Kuu and Maia as he reaches out towards them. "But before you answer that, let's walk and talk, I kinda don't want to loiter around here much longer..." He then pulls his arms back towards him and turns to face the street once more, he then takes a few steps and looks back at the two, "You guys coming?"

    "It's a digivice," Maia said, and i thought to myself 'A wha?' but she continued to talk; "That kind of digivice connects you with a partner. I thought it was that girl. But maybe not. You've never seen one before?" as she then looks towards me, she scrunches her eyebrows into an utmost adorable puzzled look.

    "You make it seem like these things are common knowledge, like if everyone nowadays has one...wait, does everyone have one of these? And you thought Brooke was my partner? Well we did date, but then-n...then she died..." Matt's expression and mood drastically changed for the worse. As they walked, he looked to his right and pointed whilst saying; "Well we are at the park, Kuu I would suggest you try sliding down the slide as if you were on a skateboard, that is if you want the pinnacle to excitement from this park." Matt then looks back towards Maia, "I guess I owe you an explanation..." Matt then jaunts over to the swing set, and plops down onto on, as he sits you can hear the chiming of the chains hitting together. "So i'll skip the sad stuff, but we used to date in junior high, this was before i moved here. We were walking home from a movie and all I have to say is America is a scary place at night, that day will always replay whenever I close my eyes, but to get to the point here, i'm side tracking myself. We got mugged, i was left with a few wounds nothing major, but sh-....she got shot..." Tears start to gently roll down his face, he looks up at the sky and takes a deep breath. "I blame myself every day, it should've been me who got shot, not her, she should be the one alive today...not me...ughhhhh, well anyways haha lets not waste the night away hearing to me talk about my past...I guess what they say is true, the past should stay in the past, eh?"  He chuckles a bit to hide his grief. " We might as well enjoy our time here, and besides any knowledge you have on these 'Digivices' you're willing to share i'll gladly listen." 

    Man how many times am I going to cry today?

    "We should go back, we should properly explain to him what's going on! Buster! Please!" Bleeze states as Buster and her have a deep conversation inside their mind.

    "Oh yeah? And then what? Do you think he's just going to welcome us in wide open arms? He's probably just as scared as we are! Stop being so selfish!" Buster snaps back, Bleeze halts in her tracks, as she's the one controlling the body, the human girl then drops to her knees and starts to cry. "Bleeze...stop, you know we can't...we shouldn't be here..." Buster says as he seemed to have calmed down a bit.

    "You don't know how he feels, you don't know anything! We're both trapped here, and to do what? Weren't we supposed to find him? Weren't we supposed to become a team once again? Why can't you just let me do this for a change! Why does it always have to be you in charge? I'm tired of you being in the spotlight all the time...i just wanted to see him...to be with him..." You can hear the pain in her voice, the sadness she feels of always being overshadowed by Buster. "If you want to leave that badly...then fine...take control and lets go home..."

    The human girl then seems to go limp in the middle of the street, as if she become a lifeless corpse. "Okay...let's do this then. We go back, and follow them until we can break the barrier and talk to him. Okay? I want to see him too, and i never knew how you felt...I guess I should let my ego deflate a bit huh?" He chuckles a bit, the girl then seems to get back up. Almost as if she's robotic by nature, you can then see her brush her face and wipe away any and all left over tears. The girl then quickly goes back towards the store, she notices them head down the street and she silently follows from a distance. They all reach the park and she slowly walks into the entrance. She hears the story Matt is telling and can sense all the pain in his words, she glances at her hands and thinks "Did we pick a bad holosuit?" As he finishes up the story she starts to walk closer as they've finally found to courage to explain whats going on...

    "You dated a Digimon?" she said in a confused and almost concerned tone. Matt had no idea what she was really talking about. He didn't even know what a 'digimon' was, was it something that other people knew about? "No, it's not supposed to be common knowledge," she states. Right! The pink thing he's been holding onto since that encounter, what exactly was this thing? Like was it a communications device? Or like one of those mini games? He wasn't quite sure of what to think of it all honestly, things just happened so fast. 


    "wait. Are you saying she wasn't a Digimon?" There she goes again with this 'Digimon" thing, what exactly is that? Is it some new trend that he doesn't know about? She seemed to pause for a moment, almost as if she was trying to collect her thoughts on what to say next. "Everything happens for a reason, it's, really terrible that happened." She looked rather concerned as she spoke, "Well, it won't make much sense until you have a chance to use it, it links you with a partner, or two. N-Not like a girlfriend or a boyfriend. --Oh! No, that wasn't what I meant before," she stammered, quickly "More like friends, or pets! Not dating." Now shes saying that this thing connect people? Or rather things? What exactly was she going on about? Well i guess now is the best time, if anytime, to clarify what she means.


    "So what you're saying is that this little pink thing, connects me with someone or something? Kinda like a pact? Or a bond?" Matt then looks down at the device in his hands. 'Hmmm i wonder...' he then takes his toque off and runs his fingers through his hair. "So i guess we should look for her and try this thing out? But just exactly what am i supposed to do with it? I hope you're not going to say, 'Oh you'll know exactly what to do when the time is right, my child' or some jibber jabber like that," As he says this he looks towards Maia and chuckles a bit, "Sorry...i probably play too many video games. I realize that more than likely sounded ridiculous." he then scratches the back of his head and chuckles a bit more. "You know, thanks for hearing me out. It means a lot."


    As they sit on the swings and chat, the mysterious girl from before looks on from afar, wondering when they should go and talk to them, when they should attempt to make everything right. For they only ever wanted was to be together, and now hopefully they can...
