OOC: This thread may turn into an Armor Hunt if I feel there's enough energy in it (and people agree), so, keep that in mind. Otherwise it's just a whimsical adventure for the time being.
Also, my other characters, Roy and Rex, will be present as NPC's.
Owen the Gaomon couldn't say that he had heard of the Backup Bayou before, but, now that he had heard of it from tavern gossip in the Eastern Timberlands, he simply had to check it out! After all, what sort of adventurer would he be, letting other explorers swoop in before he did?
Lately it had been something of a goal of Owen's to explore the digital world, taking in its wonders and thrilling in adventure. After all, he had to set a good example to his little Offmon son Logan. Why should he have all the fun with his tamer while Owen just randomly loafed around?
By now, Owen had somewhat improved his flying skills as MachGaogamon, but still preferred walking around in his Gaomon form. Mainly because it was much less energy to do so, and while he could stay in his Gaogamon form for longer periods of time, well, being functionally bipedal was sometimes preferred. That plus it was the only form where his khaki safari shirt would fit.
But... of course Owen didn't want to go into the Bayou alone. And so he had sent a message to friends he knew as well as strangers, he didn't really discriminate. Unfortunately Tadao and Logan couldn't come since they were tied up on Earth (plus Owen didn't think a place full of swamps was suitable for his son, despite how awesome it would be to adventure with him).
And so Owen was approaching the great misty valley where the bayou was located. It looked almost creepy on the approach, what with morning mist still descended over parts of it, but, his tail wagged as he sighted some interesting old mudstone ruins through his binoculars. A perfect place to look! He might even find some treasure there, or otherwise something useful. The possibilities rolled through his mind. Something that protects from the effects of control spires perhaps? Those things were showing up around the world in a rather worrying degree. Or even...
"Hello there!" a voice from behind him said. Owen almost jumped with shock, then turned to see two digimon approaching. Both of them were in their rookie forms and didn't look threatening so he smiled back at them. One was a Veemon and the other a Guilmon. "Ah... sorry to bother you, Mr. Gaomon, but, you asked for travel companions for the swamp didn't you?"
"Rex, no need to ask him that out of the blue" the Veemon scolded his companion. "Sorry about that. I'm Roy and this is my brother Rex". Owen didn't mind.
"Gudday! I'm Owen, nice to meet you" he said. "And yeah, that's right, don't worry". The Guilmon seemed somewhat carefree and blunt while the Veemon seemed nervous and reserved. Both of them wore matching brown travelling cloaks.
"Ah, right..." Roy said. "You see... we're kind of wondering if you could help us. We're hoping to get across to Whitewater, but, we can't really get there other than to cross this bayou..."
Really? That was confusing. "Is that right? What about taking a Trailmon?" Owen inquired, that was how he normally travelled before he could fly.
"We can't really afford to" Roy admitted. Owen understood this, the light hearted Gaomon didn't mind helping them across in this matter.
"Sure I can. But... you do understand this is meant to be an exploration trip, right?" he asked them. Rex nodded enthusiastically.
"Yeah, we do! Ya see, we're scouts from El Doradimon, and when we heard there's a newly discovered area in the digital world, we thought we had to go check it out!" he nodded at his brother. "Even if Roy doesn't like the idea of walking through a swamp. It's our job to take a look too!"
"I see, that sounds great!" Owen said, wow, he didn't think he'd meet up with digimon from El Doradimon. Scouts no less. "Well, not to worry, you two'll be safe with me! I know everything there is about adventuring!" he assured them.
Indeed, Owen was wearing a backpack that was full of what he hoped would be useful tools for getting by. He wondered if anyone else would turn up here.
