The departure went almost uneventful considering the circumstances. As soon as the Railmon had stopped, Katsura was signaling to Calysta that this was the station Katsura had intended to travel to all along. Katsura was carrying Nyao the Blackgatomon out of the train. On the way to the door a Meramon was in a hurry "Excuse me", it said as it cut the waiting line by walking out in front of Katsura. This encounter was a textbook example of how much Katsura had changed since becoming a tamer. Katsura had with the help of Nyao overcomed a large chunk of her anxiety, more jarring was how unimpressing the sight of a walking flame appeared to Katsura. To her this was now an everyday encounter only with the added twist you need to be careful not to touch.
Katsura then bowed before the train (who as a railmon, happen to be alive), thanking for the travel.
After entering the gated city of Terminus an impressive sight awaited Calysta.
A titanic Urban City filled with digimon and humans of every kind all doing whatever they had to. The city was the defacto capital of the digital world and that was easy to tell. It had all the facilities of a human settlement and also some unique to the digital world.
Having returned to her regular cheerful self, Katsura looked up at Calysta expectantly.
"This is Terminus, what do you think?"
"If your brother is missing, this is probably a good place to start looking for him."

She was walking off from the train but then seen a human fireball, she still was finding this hard that a train was a living thing. As she fully left the train, she would see a big town, but was this really real? Another world, it couldn't be, but she was seeing it right in front of her at this moment. As she was asked what does she think, Calysta being shocked.
"Well, my brother is gone, I don't think I will find him in two seconds after being here, things like that take time." She was being reasonable but did wish to find him right away but it was really unlikely. "I do think this is shocking who knew that it would be another world that mostly children enter, it's like a book or a cartoon."

Katsura just stared at Calysta after her idea that this should be some cartoon.
"What? How would my life be a cartoon, it's stupid."
"But Katsura, one should definitely make a cartoon or book about you."
"No Nyao, who would even want that?."
"Come on, a child who wanders alone into a place world of monsters."
"No."
"You're right, how about gods?
"No."
"But you could work at a bathhouse for gods?"
"That's even more stupid."
"Fine what about you meet the Chinese zodiacs, but as humans? I can be the year of a cat!"
"There is no year of the cat, Nyao."
"Oh right, maybe everyone should be cats and you just happen to talk with them and live in their world."
"Ugh, Nyao just drop it okay? This discussion went from stupid to just annoying."
Having more than enough of Nyao's creative ideas, she turned back to Calysta.
"Well what do you want to do instead then?"

Another man stepped off the train, a bulky figure, who was busy staring at his new D-Tector, coloured in grey and bright yellow highlights, he simply stared at it, before seeming to notice something. "This... Isn't my stop." He muttered, his eyes invisible behind the small lenses seemingly stuck on his eyelids, "...Hey, I'm not at the site... Hello?" He talked into his phone, which had somehow changed shape during the trip, though that didn't bother him as much as the fact that his previous suspicions of someone imitating his boss seemed to be correct, but... why would they contact him? He turned towards a man on fire, and, despite being shocked, his mouth opened slightly, showing very little outwards reaction. For a moment, he made no sound as he simply stood there, before being pushed forwards, despite his size, he instinctively followed the crowd. For the first time in years, his instinctive nature betrayed him, as he actually forced himself out of the crowd, before noticing a girl and a pet, "...Excuse me." He asked, in a virtually monotonous voice, his massive figure leaning down, his mouth moving minimally and his voice just loud enough. "I got off on the wrong stop, is there some way for me to go back? Who do ask?" He got straight to the point,he did, however, rub the back of his neck as he asked.

She looked down at her, with a smile. "Well, this is a lot like a cartoon I heard about." She would try and think what that was. "Well, if you have the ideas, try to write them down maybe one day, they could be worth big money." Calysta would say having a smile facing down towards the two. In time someone new would come, not having any idea who he was but by the way, he was talking not knowing his were bouts he must have zero idea about his location. "Hello, you do know this is not anywhere you can really work right? You're in a world well full of monsters." She would say looking at the tall man who looked close to her own age.

Katsura looked up at Calysta in disbelief, she still had a hard time believing anyone would want to write about her let alone letting her star in a cartoon. Of course Nyao would watch it but that was it, Katsura thought, slightly exasperated over this turn of events despite both Nyao and Calysta meaning this well.
It was then that a tall muscular man tried to get Katsura's attention, at the drop of a hat Katsura turned into a happy and cheerful girl in stark contrast to how sad she had been merely 2 minutes ago. In another life Katsura would have been the perfect actress.
"I got off on the wrong stop, is there some way for me to go back? Who do ask?"
"Take another train?" Katsura said innocently unaware of how useless that advice sounded. Meanwhile Nyao looked wary at the man.
The man looked like he had the capacity to hurt Katsura if he so desired. On the other hand Katsura had time after time told Nyao not to antagonize people unless they had done something first. Since the conversation was inappropriate at worst but not dangerous Nyao settled with just observing how the events will turn out. Curiously Nyao demostrated not the slightest fear, almost as she was certain he was outmatched in a fight.

"Well, yeah, I said... wait, monsters?" He asked the woman, next to the girl. He rubbed his head now, and stood upright, standing eerily still for a few moments, "Didn't think monsters were real. Huh." He muttered, before turning back to the girl, as she replied cheerfully, and her cat stared at him with that stubborn expression cats usually wear, he decided this cat was likely not the type who enjoyed getting patted. He heard her suggestion, and, decided to explain a bit further, so the girl might eventually use this information for herself "To take another train, I would need to know which number this train is, as well as the stations it passes by, I would research it, but my phone changed into a game system or something." He explained, showing the device which resembled a digivice, though it had a more hand-held design. He showed very little malicious intent, as well as little intent in general. He seemed entirely focused on getting back to the place he came from, and to work, little else, even monsters seemed able to deter him.

Calysta would let out a small laugh, finding it funny what Katsura just said, take another train, that was just well cute, is what Calysta thought. Maybe Nyao or Katsura were outmatched in a fight, but she has handle people bigger and him. "Well, they are now, but some of them don't look that harmful, they just like to act big." Her eye's when down to Nyao for that second then back up. "Well, don't take this the wrong way, as it sounds like a bad joke or me being in a mood." It was weird she was about to say this. "Ask the train, they can talk so I am guessing they know the way back to our world." Okay, she felt like hitting herself, that just sounded really stupid, but honestly, it was maybe the best idea of knowing your location.
"If you like to follow us you can, but you're trying to get home, we are heading the opposite way." Which was odd, that cat was right if she told anyone about this, she would lose her job.
"Oh, time here is not the same as in our world, so missing your job is unlikely if you're here."

Open seeing that Chaze not only wasn't threatening but in Nyao's opinion easy to push around, Nyao dismissively stopped looking at him. Instead she just let herself sink into Katsura's arms and enjoyed the upcoming show that was just about to unfold right in front of her.
"Didn't think monsters were real. Huh."
"Well they are!" Katsura said in a very excited cheerful voice with a matching smile, having apparently forgotten how scared she herself reacted the first time Nyao revealed herself.
"Well, they are now, but some of them don't look that harmful, they just like to act big."
Nyao answered Calysta's look with a smug grin, Nyao may see an even match in a metalgreymon but a mere human was a walk in the park at this point. Non-verbally Nyao made it clear that she had more strength than her small size indicated, especially compared to a human. That or Nyao's ego was currently the size of a planet, there were strong evidence pointing in either direction.
"To take another train, I would need to know which number this train is, as well as the stations it passes by, I would research it, but my phone changed into a game system or something."
Since Calysta already was making her attempt to explain how the trains work, much to the amusement of Nyao, Katsura decided to just explain the device, despite nobody had told her its real name.
"That looks like those transforming digidevices, I think you can become a monster with it."
"Hmm it depends, he needs to find his element first."
"Element, like fire and water and stuff?"
"Welp it can be anything, just like you are the embroilment of loyalty,"
"So he can be the embroilment of candy?"
Nyao had to pause for a moment just to progress Katsura's logic and another moment to get back on track during this time, she just stared puzzled at Katsura.
"Ehm something like that."
Whether Chaze decided to follow them or not didn't seem to do much impact to either of them, neither protested nor cheered. They just looked at him expectantly waiting for him to respond. That way they encouraged not to feel pressured into anything he didn't wish to.

He seemed quite passive to all of this, showing little reaction to all of this information. He simply glanced around, "I can't remember the last time I had a dream." He muttered, Before walking towards the talking train, as he was instructed. After a few minutes of discussing, he returned to the group, "It's asking for... Bits, I don't have any." He explained, thoughtfully, he had n idea what these "Bits" were, save for, perhaps, a form of currency. If this was the case, he needed to find a way to gain these Bits, but he wasn't going to ask the nice girls for any, that would just be plain rude. It was then he noticed something, and instinctively extracted a small object from one of his many, deep pockets, that resembled a trophy with several gears all over it. "Hmm?" He pondered, before he, again, instinctively, pointed his used-to-be phone at it, and it shrank down and was sucked into it. He stared at the screen, as "機械" displayed itself on it, "Hm." He remarked, before pocketing the device, "Sorry about that. I think I should go with you." He stated, deciding that was the logical option his dream presented to him.

Calysta could take on Digimon she was a headmistress but knew how to fight. She listens to them all talk about elements and monsters? Okay, this has really become a cartoon. It was odd that the trains could talk, but at least you could ask them on how to get back home, it was simple and easy. "I see, so people can change into Digimon that's new." But to be fair all of this was new to her. What was next someone could control an army of Digimon taking over each part of the world, as the leader or general take everyone down to control his or her own part of the digital world? Yeah right, no way that was going to be a thing. It was even too crazy to think about.
It was odd but what made this more like a cartoon was a child had to lead the way?....................She was lost in this world not knowing where to go but a child knew it all too well....And she had to ask her how to get around. "Okay, Katsura where do we go now?"

Katsura saw that Chaze was looking at his digidevice and how he suddenly turned quiet.
"What's wrong?"
"I see, so people can change into Digimon that's new."
"There are still a lot about this world that confuses me. Like how a whole band of one species could tell each other apart despite being named the same. It happen on my first day. I try not to think about it."
It was then that Calysta had turned her attention to Katsura.
"Okay, Katsura where do we go now?"
"Hmm?"
Katsura thought for a moment, she also pondered about whether now was an appropriate time to tell Chaze that no this wasn't a dream.
"Well I suppose we could help this man finding his element, either that or get something to eat."
To illustrate the latter option, Katsura indicated that Terminus city had just as many eating places as you would expect from a regular city. The only difference seemed to be that they for the most part was staffed entirely by digimon, even the few humans running shops were obviously tamers of some sort.
If this was a cartoon, Terminus was looking like the hub city of adventure, unbeknownst to Katsura who still had yet to find that suggestion logical.

Regardless, Chaze continued to assume that he was indeed in a dream, and followed the girl who seemed to have the most awareness of their surroundings, so he felt obligated to stick with her, for now. He didn't have the slightest clue what this talk of 'Element's was, he wasn't particularly hungry, either, having recently woken up at a precise time, his alarm set ten minutes beforehand so he could hit the alarm once, then get up. He designed a makeshift clock that could only be Snooze'd once per day, forcing him to wake. His head was empty of much thought as he absent-mindedly followed the girl around, silently, and admittedly curious as to where this hallucination would go.

"Finding his element...." Okay, that was odd. "Can you just buy it and does it work the same with Digimon? Do you buy them like pets or something." Calysta would say thinking, even more about this. Then she heard two children talk about tamers. "...Tamers, Nyao is a cat, so did Katsura use a whip and a chair?" She was thinking about a Lion tamer at that second. "I doubt this world has anything human's can eat. But it's best we look for his ....element." She would say with a smile, having her hands in her pocket pulling out a cigarette, lighting it and smoking.
"Oh, just so you know because I know my mind doesn't play tricks, and I was fully awake and followed her here, you should know one thing." She raised one hand up into the air and flicked the man on his forehead. "It's not a dream, you're awake in an odd land." She would say looking calm, smoking her cigarette again, after flicking his forehead.

"Buying an element? Well if it's anything like my tag, I guess it's something that says a lot about you."
Katsura adjusted her collar revealing her crest of Loyality, as it was a symbol written in digicode Calysta won't know the language despite her education.
Katsura studied Chaze for a moment like an animal in a zoo, then she shrugged as there wasn't anything about him she could just pinpoint. She would expect the element of fire to be granted to a pyromaniac for instance.
"I doubt this world has anything human's can eat. But it's best we look for his ....element."
Katsura lifted her elbow in a shrug, not really caring about which option was chosen.
Then Katsura came to what should have been the obvious conclusion: Simply asking Chaze.
"So can you tell anything about yourself?"
