This land was very strange, there was no way to even expect that there would be that sort of event happening in the market place, let alone that a simple purchase would lead to winning one of the special prizes. Still this was a way to experience more of this new country that Christoph had to call home. It had been a few weeks since his father had made the rather sudden and abrupt decision that their entire family had to move to Japan. Even though he was old enough to be on his own and there was nothing keeping his mother with his father they were all still under the thumb of his father so whatever random flight of fancy that his father has they have to follow.
Christoph was doing alright maneuvering through the streets of Shibuya, even if his Japanese wasn't the best. However right now there was one of the biggest challenges before him in his entire life, he had heard of these things before but now standing here before it gave off a great aura of dread and fear, the subway system. More importantly the amount of people that crammed themselves into a single train car. There was no way that he could even begin to think about taking it himself, being that close to so many other people with almost no space between him and them. Practically touching one another, it was almost enough to give him a panic attack.
So there he stood with the ticket for the magic show that he had won in a raffle in one hand while he stood struck with fear facing the subway train that was quickly being filled by people. Only by chance and luck whether it be bad or good luck someone pushed him forward, followed by another and another till a swarm of people pushing him forward and into the train. Before he knew it the doors closed shut on him and he was pressed up against it with people shoving into him. His breathing became shallow, his eyesight started to narrow as everything started to turn black. Before he knew it he started to shut down and lose focus.
Everything was shutting down for him, just as it was starting to happen a small voice started to speak to him. “ Hey move it the doors are open.” He didn't know the voice however it shook him out of the state he was in long enough to see that there was a way off of the train. Without thinking he ran for it, running as fast as he could away and off of that nightmare ending up in a less than crowded place he was able to stop and take a deep breath. He never wanted to face that sort of thing again, if having to walk home was the only alternative then so be it. At least he was in downtown Shibuya and near the area where the magic show was suppose to take place. Maybe seeing a free show would calm him down a bit.
After that incident in the train it didn't take long to get to the theater that was holding the show. As he entered he saw that it was a bit empty for the most part. He could grab a seat near the middle of the theater away from most people. As the show started it seemed to be a normal magical show, each trick was in it's own self rather impressive yet something that he had seen done before either in a movie or on T.V. . As it was coming to a close the magician smiled and called out to the crowed. “Now then I need two volunteers from the audience to help me out.” As expected tons of people raised up their hands and wanted to help out, Christoph wasn't one of them. However suddenly a light came down on him. “ You there strange man with the mask on. I don't know why you have it on, but come on up I like the air of mystery that you have on.” Petrified Christoph didn't want to move yet the crowed started to cheer him on and some even pulled him towards the stage. Nervously he made his way up for all to see. His silver mask covering most of his face while the rest of his attire was a simple white outfit with a brown belt. “Now then for one more assistant.”

The human world was becoming increasingly dull and grim to Katsura, yet she found herself back here after an encounter with a strange lolita girl who tried to enslave her, Katsura took some time back there to rest. Curiously she had found herself wandering around in a mall. In her arms she was carrying Nyao the BlackGatomon. Normally she would have been using the occasion to get herself some money but that lolita girl had changed something.
Katsura wanted to be a better person than Liliana, she got tired of taking advantage of others and just yearned to be a nice person period.
Fate would have it that Katsura discovered a magic show inside the mall and once inside it seemed like the magician wanted a volunteer.
Katsura just stood there holding Nyao, not really understanding what the point of this show was let alone why people were interested. To her this was just a game of fancy distractions and manipulation maybe some light somewhere and who knows, maybe you lose your wallet as part of the show. Not helping the matter either was that Katsura now was aware of the digital world, on top of knowing most schemes and struggling with emotions, Katsura had already seen a lot.
Regardless though, a member of the magician's staff walked up to her and pressured her into joining up on the stage.

The magician simply smiled as he saw the two people he had selected as his volunteer assistants. “Now then ladies and gentlemen, with my mysterious man in mask and with this lovely young lady in black I shall preform the final trick for the evening.” Suddenly a set of handcuffs would be slapped on the wrists of both Christoph and Katsura, without warning the two of them would be cuffed to one another. Christoph simply locked up in place and froze with fear. Never in a million years would he ever agreed to this if he knew that it meant that he had to be handcuffed to another person. Before he could even utter out a word against this both of them would be dragged backwards by the magician’s assistants.
“Now then my two lovely volunteers will stand right here behind me and with a simple red cloth I shall make them vanish before your very eyes.” The magician smiled as from under his cape he pulled out a very large red cloth and tossed it over the two. “ Now my lovely audience as you see this cloth now covers the two handcuffed volunteers and as soon as I say the magic words they shall vanish.” The magician held onto the cloth and loudly shouted out “abracadabra”. Suddenly the floor opened up under them and both Christoph and Katsuna fell down into a hidden room under the stage.
The room that the two were stuck in was small and dark, more like a closet than a room. Unfortunately for Christoph given that he was taller and heavier than the girl he somehow ended up falling a bit faster than her and ended up on the ground first breaking the fall of Katsuna. The two in the room could hear the cheering of the crowd and the magician taking in all the praise and glory for the trick. The crowd started to cheer for more tricks, sadly for the two of them the magician was more than happy to continue preforming.

During most of the magicians show Katsura just rolled with it while carrying Nyao, she knew how to make a convincing smile even when she didn't feel like it. Underneath the red cloth Nyao was using her nail to open the lock every time no one paid attention. Then the trap door opened up and they all fell down, first this strange man then Katsura and Nyao. This order meant that Katsura landed in top of Christoph, strangely Katsura was not wearing the handcuffs when she landed. Katsura looked on Christoph, well now she didn't have to worry about him and even if he saw anything nobody would believe him, at most they would just assume the magician was just that awesome. Katsura looked down at Nyao "Should we play with him?" Katsura said to Nyao as if it was a person rather than a plush toy. Katsura made sure that she was blocking Christoph's view as she pressed a button on her digidevice and a portal opened up to a strange forest. Before Christoph could tell what was happening both the portal, Nyao and Katsura had disappeared.
Meanwhile in Server woods A portal was showing up between a dark room resembling a closet, and out came Katsura in her hand she was carrying Nyao the BlackGatomon. Once they left the portal disappeared again.
"So what is your plan?" "I have tinkered with my Digidevice and I have discovered that when you open a portal to the digital world, then open another portal in the digital world you return back to where you started. In a few minutes the magician will get me to come back to the scene to show how "cool" he is. I will just be here for a little while longer" Sure enough about 10 minutes later Katsura reopened the portal and returned without wearing handcuffs, who knows what have happen in that time span?

Just when he thought that he would be stuck in a closed room forever with a stranger something happened. He could feel the weight that he had on his back suddenly vanish. Getting off of the ground he saw that he was alone in the room. His body shaked with fear as he wondered where the girl when and where he was. From the small fragments of light entering the room he could tell that this place seemed to be under the stage, but what exactly he was suppose to do he hadn't the foggiest idea. Was he suppose to stay in this place? Was he suppose to leave. The magician didn't really say however seeing as the girl that he was with vanished maybe he was suppose to leave as well.
He tried the door, but sadly he found that it was locked, there wasn't a way out of this place. So then how did that girl leave? This left so many questions for him, yet there wasn't any answers in this small dark room with no exit whatsoever. Suddenly the thought of being trapped in here was becoming a huge reality for him. His body started to shake even more now as he huddled himself into a corner of the room and grabbed his head by it's sides. By the time Katsuna and Nyao returned to the room the would find Christoph rocking back and forth in the corner muttering to himself as the Magician seemed to forget about them all together too wrapped up in doing a second show for free.

As Katsura and Nyao came back to the small room they saw the guy was sitting in the corner rocking back and forth. Katsura looked around,
"Huh, I guess the magician forgot us, oh well." Katsura said in a perky cheerful manner that did not match the situation at all. Katsura then turned her attention to Christoph. For a long while, she just stood there studying him with curiosity not really understanding why he reacted the way he did, she treated him more like a zoo animal than a person before turning to Nyao who was posing as a plush toy.
"Look Nyao, the boy looks so confused"
Katsura then sat on her knees observing Christoph

It was only ten minutes but it seemed like a lifetime to him. Every second that passed felt like an hour, being trapped in a small dark room all alone to himself. This was fitting, the only place for trash like himself was a dark room under the floor of someone more successful. The only way someone like him would ever have any value would be as a stepping stone for someone else, he deserved this. Suddenly there was a soft muttering in the back of his mind, the soft voice whispered these simple words in to the back of his mind. “Stay in the dark freak.” Soon that voice was joined by other voices.
Voice's, countless voices started talking all around him, talking about him. Each voice very distinct and different than the last. All of them taunting him and calling him worthless in one form or another. Sadly for him he didn't even notice when Katsura and Nayo returned to the room. He was lost in his own little world of self loathing and hate. The only action he would be taking would be him rocking back and forth paralyzed by fear. Sadly only a form of physical contact would brake Christoph from this state.

Katsura kept staring at Christoph's deterioration into madness, she was rather clueless about what was going on in his head. Emotions was not Katsura's strength so looking at Christoph was her way of learning human contact. It didn't help either that Katsura couldn't read minds and thus had no external way of knowing about the voices in Christoph's head. "Humans are weird." And for a moment Katsura was about to depart, not knowing the door was locked when she looked down to Nyao. "What is it? Don't give me that look Nyao. Fine, I play with him some more." Of course if Christoph was to look all he would see was a girl talking to her plush as if it was a person, not the most mentally stable from an outside perspective. It was then that Katsura decided to give Christoph a short and gentle poke.

He hadn't heard her words or the words of her digimon, however the moment that she poked him he stopped rocking back and forth like a madman. He was still shaking at the thought of being trapped in this place. He didn't move other than shaking for a bit. Slowly his head would move from between his legs and he would look right at Katsuna in her eyes. He didn't know what else to do right now, this was a horrible situation that he was in and it didn't look like there was a way out of this place.
His mask was still on his face, keeping her from seeing his face filled with terror. “W-w-w-w-what's y-y-y-y-your name.” Right now maybe if he could understand who this person he was in here with it might calm him down, he wasn't really positive that this would even work. Heck he had a feeling that it would only make it worse. Deep down he sort of hoped that it would make things worse for himself, no matter how much someone tried to cheer him up or say that he was worth anything deep down he knew the truth he was trash.

Like so often before, Katsura had little idea of what reaction was appropriate for the situation. So she just did her standard reaction when meeting strangers. By the time Christoph looked Katsura straight in the eyes Katsura smiled friendly, if he paid attention to the eyes though he might notice that there was nothing at all behind the smile. Katsura essentially smiled for the sake of smiling.
Since facial reactions was never Katsura's strength in the first place, Katsura rather picked up on other things. Katsura associated strutter with fear and nervousness. (Did I scare him?) Katsura thought as she looked confused on Christoph. He wants to know her name? Sure, now must be the time for introduction. So Katsura made a polite bow before Christoph. "I'm Ise Katsura." Katsura said gently.
