There where some things she gave as an example that appealed to John more, but he still wanted to give them all a try sometime, "Yeah I guess it is interesting how that happens, personally I think arcades are pretty neat, they provide a different kind of challenge as apposed to consoles." As she excused herself, he debated weather or not he should follow to help, he quickly chose to follow her and see if he could help.
Viximon was thankful for her new acquaintances helping her get out, or try to as they where able to get out without the human who entered the room to notice them, only then to be spotted by another outside, "Ah no, someone saw us! Wait grounded, are these her digimon?" she thought, "Well I can't play the stray animal card, and these two will probably tell her about what we where doing, I might as well answer her truthfully if she asks, at least things can't get any worst." As she thought this, John walked up to them. "... Oh no."
"Hey I was wondering if you wanted any help finding your keys, it'll save on time and what in the!" John did not expect to see some digimon again so soon, he still hasn't fully accepted this new reality yet, and now he had to explain to someone about the existence of something he barley knew about. "Okay now you must have a lot of questions, and I don't blame you, but you need to stay calm, I'll tell you what I can but keep in mind I am no expert on this, in fact I'm pretty much still on the tutorial at this point." Taking another look at the three, he noticed that the fox seemed oddly familiar to him. |

She’d flinched a little realizing the kid had followed her but focused moreso on the two digimon, kneeling down as they came into the safety of arms which made her heart palpitations lessen just a little bit, though she did quickly activate their holosuits, giving Tohru the appearance of a lop eared rabbit and Simba that of a silver domestic fox. “Not really? None of this digimon related stuff scares me too much now, now I just kind of roll with it.” The twins had hardly had a chance to say anything about Viximon, but Tohru did introduce her. “Meet our new friend Viximon! We found her when went to...explore and helped her out with some stuff.” Tohru couldn’t help but feel slightly guilty as she was honest with the blonde that they’d scampered away even though they weren’t supposed to and as she spoke, Talia stroked the top of her head gently as if to reassure her otherwise. “It’s fine, I’m just glad you’re both safe, I was really worried there.” Meh, she sounded like such a sissy admitting those feelings!
“Oh my god, she’s soooo gorgeous and cute, come here girl.” Setting down the twins, Talia gently beckoned the baby digimon over for a pet, resisiting the urge to completely cuddle her like a stuffed animal but reserved her self control as to not frighten the poor little girl. “”Yep, definitely gorgeous! Lemme guess, John is your partner? Forgive me if its a wrong assumption but I’ve come to find that a digimon is never that far from their human, even when they are.” It begged the question, had Simba and Tohru always watched over her and she hadn’t known it? Was that what they meant by the whole ‘I’ve been waiting for you’ thing? “Eh, don’t feel bad neither am I, in fact I still don’t get all of this, but I’m just kinda going with it if that makes sense?

John relaxed when Talia said she already knew about digimon, and that the ones here where friendly, or at least weren't hostel in Viximon's case, she was trying to find a way out of here but wasn't finding any. "Well okay then, guess we can just skip that." He looked at the two digimon that was in Talia's arms, greeting them. "Hello there, I'm John Jourdain, nice to meet you." He then looked down to the fox digimon. "And they said you're Viximon? Well it's nice to meet you too... Heeey, wait a moment, you where in that tree during class weren't you, have you been following me?" He asked with a slight tone that wasn't angry but a little bit disturbed.
Viximon was incredibly hesitant in approaching Talia, she had just met this person and had no time to watch her and learn what she's like, but if she was the twins's tamer then she supposed she could give her a little trust for now. "I'd rather not, I just met you and I don't like getting close to people unless I know them. And partner? Well I don't think so..." She had never thought of the possibility of being John's partner, she had felt unusually responsible of him, but she just thought it was curiosity, perhaps it was fate that brought them tohey wait what did he just ask? "Ah no, oh crap he realized what I've been doing, uggh what now?!" Her thoughts went into overdrive as she tried to find a way out of this, but her conscience ultimately took over and she decided to just fess up.
"Y-yeah I have, but there's an explanation for that, I was curious about you, and wanted to learn what you where like, so I've been following you." She admitted "How long has this been going on?" John asked with a bit of annoyance. "Oh ever since you got to your dorm, I was staying there for a bit before you showed up." She said nonchalantly. "So that's why I felt like someone's been watching me. You know you could have just asked me in the first place, right?" Viximon shrugged, "I could have, but how well would you have reacted to me, considering class today?" John opened his mouth to make a retort, before closing it. "Yeah I guess you have a point, well anyway if you still need a place to stay then you can stay with me, just no more hiding from me okay?" Viximon thought for a moment, before nodding. "Alright, that's fair, you already know about me so hiding would be pointless."

Talia didn’t take all too kindly to the small fox’s attitude. “Well that’s rude, most digimon I’ve met love my cuddles, but fine miss out I guess.” Dumb digital fleabag fox, she had no idea what she was missing! It didn’t matter anyway because the twins would snuggle her 24/7 if they could, well Simba maybe, Tohru was still kind of a work in progress. “Don’t take it personally Talia, the digimon in her line tends to sort of be stuck up sometimes.” The rabbit reassured her it wasn’t her fault. Besides, the twins got jealous sometimes if their human cuddled another digimon.
Realizing they were out in the open, the woman quickly reactivated the twin’s holosuits so that no one would see them. “This isn’t the best place to talk, if you want to talk about this we should find a classroom or closet or something probably.” Paws tugged on the woman’s sleeve from both sides. “We found something kind of scary in that room, and it was written in digi code too!” “It was from someone called the colle-” Tohru covered her brother’s mouth quickly. “Not here Simba! What if someone hears us?”

Viximon chuckled at Tohru's description of her, she had never herd anyone describe her as 'stuck up' before, then again not many get to meet her. "I'm not stuck up, I'm just cautious." She then looked around. "I agree that staying here wouldn't be a good idea, there should be an open classroom somewhere, I suggest we move to one of them." Looking unsure, she decided to walk up to John. "Listen, someone would find it odd to see me walking around, so for now I'll let you carry me around, I can be still for a while so I can act like a toy, just no unnecessary petting okay?" Nodding, John picked up Viximon, making sure that she was in a position that she was most comfortable with, eventually she settled on curled in his arms while they where crossed like an x. "Man you are soft, so what was that about something scary you three found?" he asked. "I'll explain when we get to a room, I assume you know a place we can go?" she asked Talia. "Also I don't think it was from whoever it is, it seemed more like a warring, but like I said, explanations will be given later." Unknown to the two of them, John's digivice faintly flashed faintly a few times for a moment when he picked up Viximon, before stopping just as abruptly as it began.

“Unfortunately I’m not too familiar with this place.” Why the hell would she know her way around a high school she’d never attended or previously been to? “But I guess I can improvise right?” Most people seemed to either be at lunch or still at the career fair, which left a good chunk of the classrooms empty. “I think we can go in here, but I’m not sure when the students are coming back, do high schools have bells in this country?” It would be an easy way for them to know their cue to leave, and hopefully have Talia not be mistaken for a student.
“As I was saying, Tohru and Simba are my digimon partners who kind of crash landed here.” She couldn’t help but feel oddly proud when saying it - to be fair she was quite proud of the two rascals, but getting her to say it outloud took a little more social elbow grease. “I don’t know why, I don’t know when or how, all I know is that someone in the world they came from entrusted me to look after them, which is basically what I’ve been doing since they were babies.” Now she was all too super curious about what the Viximon had to say - despite the initial attitude, the small creature seemed quite smart for what she guessed was a baby stage. “So what’s your story, Foxy? The holosuited twins sat on top of some desk in the room next to their human, ready to listen with their ears perked.

John followed Talia to an empty classroom, making sure to take note of the other kinds of rooms that they passed, "Yeah there is a bell, it rang after my first class ended." he replied. As they entered he placed down Viximon, as he did he turned to Talia and listened to her story. "Hmm interesting, you seem to have raised them well from what I've seen, so whoever gave you them made a good choice." He gave her a thumbs up, and then turned to Viximon. "Alright, what's your deal?" He asked, sitting down in a desk to listen.
She looked around at the four who where looking directly at her and sighed. "Guess I'm not getting out of this one." she muttered. "First I want to apologize to you Talia, I had assumed you worked here and I was mistaken, sorry. As for my story there's not much to say, I hatched in the digital world and spent all my time as a Reremon there, mostly helping the odd digimon, traveling here and there. After I digivolved into my current form I went to the real world learning what I could from watching various people." She paused for a moment as if she was thinking about something. "Although now that I have time to talk about it, 'traveling' and 'went to' aren't quite the right words to describe what happened." John cocked his head. "What do you mean?" he asked. "Well it's more like, I was drawn to different places, like I was being pulled to them by some feeling, kind of like I lost something," She looked at John, "and that feeling is drawing me to you."
John has about to ask more about that when he heard a beeping go off, *beep beep* ... *beep beep* ... *beep beep*, two beeps, followed by three seconds of silence went off, hearing it came from his pocket he pulled out his digivice and saw that it was flashing a light along with the beeping. Viximon walked closer towards it. "This feeling, it's like something is calling me..." As she touched the device the light came out of it and flew into Viximon, afterwards the beeping stopped, and on the screen, for a moment, it just showed the text, "I can see you.", before going blank again. "Wh-what just happened, I'm not the only one who thought that was weird right?" John said, starting to get an uneasy feeling from that message, suddenly remembering what happened to the little fox he turned to her "You okay, Viximon?" He asked as she was looking herself over with a confused look on her face. "Y-yeah, I'm fine, a bit tingly but overall I'm fine."
Taking a breath she decided to move on with her story. "Let's forget about what just happened for now, and focus on what the twins and I where looking for. As John knows, his uncle has been vague about some details, specifically involving that device, and saying something about giving him a chance at having a normal school life, naturally this annoyed me so I decided to try and look around to find some kind of clue. So I started searching the principles office for documents sent by his uncle, then those two found me and helped me find an enrollment letter he sent. Most of it was normal, but there's one part that seems out of place, at the bottom there's something written in digicode." John piped in. "Digicode, what's that?" She replied to that, "Oh that's basically our language, anyway it had a curious message on it, it said 'Beware The Collector.', it seems it's some kind of message, a warning of some kind." A look of concern crept on John's face, "Well, that's ominous, but why is my uncle even putting that there?" he asked. "I don't know, I don't even know if it was him who put it there, but I think that whoever this Collector is, it is not someone to mess with." Viximon turned to Talia, "Have you ever heard of whoever this is?" she asked.
