11:30 a.m., Hachiko Square, Central Shibuya. It was Yukiko Armstrong's day off, thankfully. She wouldn't have a clue what to do with this frog while she works. Not that things were any better now. As she walked the streets of the square towards an internet cafe, her backpack wiggled.
"Uaaaah, it's so hot and cramped in here!"
"Shhhhh, you're the one who insisted on coming along! Be quiet, or else people will hear you!"
"Let them, I don't care!"
"But I do!"
Despite her best efforts, people did give Yukiko weird looks as she shushed her backpack. She was on the way to an internet cafe, one she had read about on her blog search last night. Occasionally, the blog had said, tamers would come there by accident. This was her best chance right now, so she took it, and made her way to Shibuya. Even if she did not meet a tamer, she could still search with a faster connection at home.
Mizu-chan had insisted on coming along, saying that "ONE of us has to look fabulous", which was a statement that had baffled the girl to say the least.
Once she had reached the cafe, she sat down at a free PC and gently sat down her backpack before she started searching.

Today was Takeshi's off day from univeristy no classes for the day, he decided to relax this day and go to the internet cafe in hachikõ square. He mostly wanted to research something for his universty, his twin partners Ryu and ken deciding to stay in his bag instead of wearing holosuits.
"Man are we there yet" Ken the red demiveemon complained.
"For the 50th time ken, no. You are the one who refused to wear your holo suit right ? So stop complainig" Ryu the blue demiveemon said as he peeked his head outside of Takeshi's bag ever so slightly.
"Actually hold that thought Ryu, we have arrived. I do not need to tell you guys this but remember do not blow your cover okay ? "
"You got it" both of them exclaimed as the went back in to his backpack.
Takeshi then enters the cafe and goes to the counter to order some coffee, as he recieved his order he noticed someone that grabbed his attention a girl with what seemed like a wiggling backpack, he barely sees what she is searching and the word "Digimon" stood out to him, and the last thing he notices is what seems like the top of a digivice in her pocket.
He decided to approach her, thinking she might be new to this and might need a little help.
"Hello there, nice to meet you. My name is Takeshi Kido, is the seat next to you taken ? " he decided to start the conversation with a little chit chat.

Yukiko yipped in surprise when she was spoken to, and looked at the man speaking to her with a deer-in-the-headlights look. Her face flushed red in flustered embarrassment.
"Ah, n-n-n-no, y-y-y-you can sit there..."
She was too embarrassed to continue talking, so she turned her attention back to the screen.

Takeshi was starteled by her reaction.
"Uh, sorry I did not meant to startle you." Takeshi sits in the seat next to her and takes a sip of coffee.
"Um, anyways I did not mean to intrude on your privacy. But I kinda saw you searching for digimon, by any chance do you a partner ?"

Yukiko yipped again. This question came as a surprise. Yes, she had come here to perhaps meet a tamer, but she didn't expect to -actually- meet one. Could this guy be a tamer, too...?
"W-w-w-w-w-why do you want to k-k-know that?"
Her bag wiggled again.

Judging from her, reaction Takeshi knew she was new at this. He took another sip of his coffee and man did it taste good, his love of coffee was clearly visible. He then takes out his digivice and shows it to her quickly and then puts it back in his pocket.
"You see, I am tamer just like you so I can tell. And the fact that your backpack is wiggling was also a clue, anyways we ought to lower our voices to avoid raising suspicion." He takes another sip of coffee. And lets out a sigh.
"Man does the coffee hear need to be so damn expensive" he commented with a dissapointed look on his face.
"Anyways, I guess you have a lot of questions don't you ? Well I will try my best to answer them so go ahead"

Yukiko blinked. Well, this guy had one of these digivice thingies, just like her. Guess that means he was a tamer? Finally, someone who could answer her questions. However, shyness still took its toll, and she still could not look at him when she asked with a low voice.
"J-j-j-just what is a digimon? Wh-wh-what is a digivice? A-a-a-and why do i have one?"
"And why am I so gorgeous?", Yukiko's bag cheerfully said. Yukiko gave it a gentle nudge with her foot.

Takeshi took a deep breath, as he planned to answer all of her questions in one go.
"Well, a digimon is a digital creature they inhabit the digital world. They can take a variety of forms, you would'nt believe what I saw, hehe. A digivice is a device, that tamers use to help their partners digivolve. Which is something that needs further explanation, anyways as for the reason you have it.......I frankly do not know why. Its destiny I guess ?"
Takeshi chuckled at the bag, "so thats your partner ? It seems cheerful, a faint smile can be seen across his face.
"I would show you mine, but this place is heavily populated so its not advised"

Yukiko nodded. She understood the words, but their meaning still orbitted her mind like satellites, the core planet of her reason refusing to pull them in and accepting them.
"I...see...th-th-th-that's quote something I've g-g-gotten myself into..."
Her eyes wandered down to her bag.
"Y-y-y-yes, that's my....uh...p-p-p-partner. She says she's a "Betamon"."
The bag wriggled.
"My name is Mizu-chan! Betamon isn;t cute enough!"
Yukiko shushed and prodded her bag again.

Takeshi was really unnerved by the girl, not that she intimidated him. She just made him really nervous, I guess its contagious. Takeshi then chuckled a little bit, "sorry if I am intimidating you, I did not mean it. And I can tell you are very confused, who would'nt this is a lot to take in at once. But calm down and I will help you with whatever way I can "
"A betamon huh, I have seen one before. Oh so its mizu chan ? Nice meeting you mizu-chan. And I am sorry I did not catch your name ? " Takeshi asked trying to take control of the situation, slowly but surely he intends on helping her understand the world she is involved with, should she decide to make it a part of her life.
He took another sip of coffee, its rich arouma inticing him. "Man this thing is good. You should buy one, the flavour is punchy but not too much. Do you like coffee" he tried to change the subject in order to calm her down.

Yukiko gulped, still quite nervous.
"I...am called Yukiko. Yukiko Armstrong. N-n-n-n-nice to m-m-m-meet you...! Ah, I'm s-s-s-s-sorry, I d-d-d-don't like c-c-cooffee, it's t-t-too bitter for me..."
She fidgeted in her seat. It had always been a miracle if she managed to hold a conversation longer than a few minutes.
By not a green, clawed limb extended from the backpack. Mizu-chan was clearly trying to shake Takeshi's hand.
"Nice to meetcha, prettyboy!"

Takeshi was quite baffeled by yukkiko's nervous behaviour, mostly because he did not see of himself as the intimidating or imposing. But he did not let that bother him.
"Nice to meet you yukkiko, I hope we can get along" Takeshi said with a faint smile.
"Why hello there, mizu-chan. Nice to meet you too. " he said shaking her hand and leaning near the backpack.
"Now, mizu chan. Please stay put for a little while okay, it won't take long. As for you yukiko, I bet you are still confused so how about you ask all of the question you want to ask I will try my best to respond"

Yukiko tapped her chin nervously. What else could she ask? The sudden social interaction had slowly drained her mind and replaced it with undiluted social anxiety.
"W-w-w-why are D-d-d-digimon even in the real w-w-w-world?"
"...and...w-w-w-what is AEGIS?"

"Well as for the first question I can not tell you, why because I frankly do not know myself." Takeshi chuckled. He was really suprised that she already knew about AEGIS.
"Well, I am not the best person to ask this to but here goes nothing. AEGIS is a group that help protect the human world from digimon invasion, and strengthen the relation ship between humans and digimon. If you ask me its a pretty inspiring, I have not met anyone from the team, that I know of."

Yukiko nodded. These AEGIS people sounded quite fascinating...
...ah, thought her rational part, there is her curiousity again. She twirled a lock of hair around her finger, a gesture she adopted both when nervous, and when intrigued.
"Ah, th-th-thanks for you answers, I...d-d-don't think I have any m-m-more questions now..."
She still avoided Takeshi's gaze, too nervous, too awkward. Over the past 2 days she's had more social interactions than she previously had in a week, it was taking a toll on her social energy.
