Blake Ukirama was currently at the mall, shopping by himself. "I just hope this is more than enough money for clothes. I want to try out some ramen." He thought to himself, licking his lips a bit. He attempts to pick shirts that are his size as for example, he stumbled upon a black t-shirt that seemed like his size but, it was actually VERY huge. He puts it back to then find a shirt that seemed too small to even fit the head.
After a half-hour of finding clothes, he finally found what he wanted, he paid for it. He held his light bag of clothing he wanted and started looking for a nearby place that serves those precious noodles. Eventually, he got himself a 4-pack of the noodles in a cup. He also placed inside the bag that also has his clothes in. After awhile, he was going to exit until, he realized that his Dad was going to pick him up so he finds a table and sits on the chair next to it, his head laying down on the wooden platform that was the table. When sitting down, he spots something closed down with caution tape all around it with a bright light.
"You...come here..please." Blake raised his head an gets up, very nervous as to what that is. He just got to Shibuya about a week ago and something ominous is already happening. Reluctant, he left his plastic bag of the pack of ramen and clothes and gets closer. He didn't here anything else but, the light is certainly still there. He looked at everyone else, passing, not noticing the obvious light at the closed down store. "ねえ、あなたはそれを見ていますか?" He asked a random person as he points at the closed down store with him looking away at Blake. He asked someone the same thing with the lady doing the same as the man.
Blake huffed and started getting even more closer to the point where he's at the entrance. The light dimmed a bit as it started going towards the interior. He started getting even more nervous than he already was. Should he trust something that he hasn't seen before? He, once again, reluctantly goes inside the closed down store. As he walks down an aisle, he saw multiple computers that looked as if they were from a decade ago. He came to a conclusion that it was a Electronic Shop that seemed to be abandoned. He walks even more until, he stumbled upon a door. The light shone inside with Blake using his hand to cover his eyes. "Is it god or am I hallucinating.?"He said to himself. He walk towards the door to then open it.

Meanwhile, Leith was at the same mall at the same time fast as he could get there soon as he'd found out it had a music shop. It even had brands he recognized! Dunlop picks! Monster cables! Boss Metal Zone pedals! Maybe he wasn't so glad to see that last one, but the familiarity was really the important thing. One notable thing about him now was that he had recently changed his style a little: though he kept his camo shorts and black band shirt (Aerosmith this time), he'd moved his watch from his left wrist to his right. That was so his dominant hand could more easily access the digivice he worse on his left wrist in the cradle he found it with like a second watch. "Jazz III... Jazz III... Jazz III... sweet!" Leith managed to find the exact picks he'd wanted and, though he couldn't communicate with the shopkeep well, managed to purchased the pack with what little spending money his parents had spared him to raise his mood a bit.
To his credit, the Demiveemon in the digivice seemed to intentionally wait until Leith was out of the store and alone to ask, "Did you find 'em?"
"Hell, yeah, I did! My friend back home used to call these 'his Jesus picks' because he loved 'em so much." The enthusiasm Leith showed in his answer was a clear sign his mood had improved a bit, something Demiveemon was very glad to see.
The creature in the digivice then asked, "Great! What does that mean?"
"It just means-"
"Leith! Stop!" The young man quickly obeyed, stopping straight in his tracks just outside a closed store whose name he couldn't read because its characters were in Japanese. Luckily, Demiveemon didn't keep him hanging. "I sense a digimon!"
"What? Another one? Here?" Leith hissed at his wrist.
"Let me out!" Demiveemon demanded, "I can protect you from it!"
"Shh. Just wait." Leith noticed that the security shutter apparently didn't close all the way down; there was just enough room to crawl under. He decided the safer option was to peer inside from the outside, though. "Let's just see what it is... maybe it's friendly like you. Or maybe it's not, and it's way bigger than you." So Leith and Demiveemon posted themselves outside the security shutter to watch the events happening within.

As Blake opened the door, he then was blown back by a sudden shockwave that had him bump his head into a railing of a aisle.He fell, face first, onto the floor. The light that was behind the door was gone as a weird device that had a glossy red color scheme.It had a small screen that then booped up into life. The screen then made a static sound as an ominous creature seemed to be coming out of the screen.The creature fully came out as it started to look around. It looked like a digimon in Leith and DemiVeemons perspective. It looks like a silhouette of a Viximon.
As it started looking around, Blake woke up to get up on his knees to then look at it. He tilted his head to then fall over. "Ughhh, I must be dreaming..." He said to himself, looking at the dilapidated wall. The Viximon then spoke "Your not dreaming." As it decided to jump on his body.
"WAH!"Blake shouted as he stood still.He was too deep into the abandoned shop that barely anyone could hear him unless they were close. "Just be cool, Blake. Be cool. You bumped your head. Maybe you're hallucinating and you may need some help." He then took a few deep breaths in and out and closed his eyes tightly. Viximon just stared at him, looking confused at what he was doing. "I don't think your hallucinating nor, dreaming." Vix spoke again. Blake opened his eyes with the digimon still on his body. His eyes started go towards his head as he fainted. Vix got off his body and gotten a bit nervous. "Oh no."He then went over to the device and pushed it towards him. "Oh dear."

"Oh, shit!" Leith exclaimed, but he was still keeping his voice low so only Demiveemon could hear. "Demiveemon, he-!"
"I know! I saw!"
"Right in front of us, though!"
"So, go talk to them!"
Leith hesitated, but he knew the situation. Shit... do I have much choice? He looks even more pathetic than I did! So he finally barked, "Hey! Kid!" to get the young boy's attention. Luckily he'd already heard the boy speak in English already - with a recognizable American accent, no less! - so he could at least know he'd be understood. Soon as he called, he looked around to make sure he wasn't being watched, then steeled himself a moment before crawling under the gap in the security shutter to meet the initiate.
What to even do, though? What to say? That girl Haru knew way more than I did, but I just... Leith knew he was needed right about then, though, so he bent down in front of the very confused boy in front of him and introduced himself so: "Alright, I know you're dealing with enough weird strangers as it is, but I'm gonna try to make it make a little more sense - emphasis on 'try.'" Leith flashed the digivice on his wrist, then, which was different colors from Blake's but was obviously the same machine in design. "Don't freak out. Let's, uh... let's start with easy stuff. My name's Leith, and it looks like we're both American transplants. That's cool, right? Don't worry about the little guy; he's harmless." Leith realized that perhaps he was jumping to conclusions, though, so he then addressed the Viximon when he warily asked, "Uh- I mean, you're... you're harmless, right?"

Viximon nodded with Blake laid down on the floor, listening to all of this. "What type of mess have I gotten myself into?" He thought. And, who is this guy? He got up to then pick up the strange device and looked at Viximon. "Look, I don't know who you are but, I didn't sign up for this. I just moved from New Orleans and I'm already dealing with this type of crap."He said sternly.
Vix looked at Blake and huffed. "You were obviously chosen to be Digi-Destined. No need to act like it's the end of the world. Even, this human is a Digi-Destined too!" The Digimon rebuttled and used it's front left leg to point at Keith.
Blake, at this point, just wanted to get everything straight as his eye twitched. "Okay, so what is your name? What is your kind? Why do I have to hold this device?" He lastly spoke, looking at his D-3 then looking at Viximon.
"I don't know. All I know is that I'm a digimon and I'm a Viximon" Vix tilted it's head.
Blake comically fell over and got back up again. "Okay, care to enlighten me, Leith?" He looked at him with a annoyed expression on his face."Otherwise, I'm going to believe that this is a dream and that I'm currently sleeping with my new clothes and RAMEN." He huffed.
Viximon felt annoyed by his tamers behavior and sighed.
Blake already met his first digimon and it turns out they're not having a great start as of today. Maybe after a long time of being partners, they get along but, for now, they don't necessarily trust each other. Blake waited for Leith to answer, getting ticked by each second that passes by.

"Uh..." Leith hesitated. He knew he had to think about his answer very carefully, but in reality there was only one honest answer to the question of whether Leith could enlighten the kid before him. "...nope."
"Come on, Leith! Be nice!" a voice then urged the young man. It came from the device on his wrist.
"I am being nice," Leith countered, "But I'm also being honest. I don't really get it either." Leith pointed at the cat then. "But I can tell you he's a digimon, and that he's basically an alien from another dimension where everything is made of digital data instead of physical atoms. Don't ask me what that entails, because I haven't been there, and I don't know." Leith took off his D-3 and showed it to Blake then. "And you're a Tamer - or Digi-Destined if you want, I guess. Doesn't really matter what you call it, right? Don't ask me what that entails either because, again, I don't know. But I do know there are others besides us."

Blake just looked at him and sighed. "Alright then. I guess you were also recently dragged into this?" He questioned him. He then heard another voice and quickly looked at the D-3, Leith has. "I guess you can put your digimon inside of that..watch thingy or whatever it's called." He pointed at it.
Viximon was getting a bit impatient as Vix wanted to say something. "Wait, I have something important to say!" It told Blake as he got his front legs on Blake's Left Knee. Bake just stared at Viximon, questioning what could a digital monster possibly want at a time like this. "Alright, what is it?" Blake asked Viximon quickly as he looked at the Digimon.
It Viximon almost ten seconds to respond but, it answered with "Is there any food around here?"
Blake's eyes twitched again and facepalmed. "Yes, there is but, can you at least wait for a few more minutes or so?" He asked it nicely. Viximon got off his knees and just stood there, looking at Leith.
"Huh.."Blake thought as he looked at Vix to then look at Leith. "Anyways, you can your digimon inside your watch, is that correct?" He, once again, asked him. "I mean, what type of digimon do you have?"

"It's a digivice, specifically a D-3. Don't ask what the other two models look like, because I also don't know that - but I do know it's a bad idea to get between a digimon and food." Leith smirked like he knew a secret Blake didn't. "Trust me on that, kid." Leith buckled the digivice back into its cradle on his wrist then. "I don't think you can store Viximon, though. If you could, you'd have a program like this in your digivice-" Leith paused to show Blake the V-Pet function from his own menu. "Hey, Demiveemon, realize and say hi... and try not to give the kid a heart attack."
Leith stood up then in order to make room for Demiveemon. Once he did, he pointed the device's screen outward. Then, a beam of near-blinding light pointed at a spot on the ground, and when it disappeared there was left a little blue digimon standing in the same spot. "Hiya!" this digimon greeted with a little hop, "My name's Demiveemon, but you can call me Demiveemon!"
"And don't worry if you can't pronounce his name at first. Took me like two days," Leith added.

------------------------------------------------ "..."Blake just looked at DemiVeemon as he scratched his head. "I don't even know what you just said." He spoke to Leith's Digimon.
Viximon looked at Blake and huffed. "He just said his name was DemiVeemon but you can call him-"Vix also stopped and also wondered what it just said. You could imagine imaginary dots on top of their heads. Blake then mumbled "Never mind."
Blake then took a look at his D-3 in his hand and thrown it up in the air and quickly caught it. "So, different models, A program I don't think I have, wide-array of different type of Digimon, and a crippling addiction to food."
Blake continued as he pets Viximon while saying something else. "If I'm going to be honest, I think I was too dramatic, besides the food part but, it would make me feel a bit more better if you or we could find someone who have way more knowledge than yourself."He said to Leith. "Didn't you say you know a person?" He also included.
Viximon sighed silently. "I wonder what type of food I can eat in the human world." It thought to itself. "Including where me and my tamer would go?"
Blake didn't feel as much as dramatic about this situation and is determined to know more.

Leith almost felt insulted by this insinuation, but the fact remained that Blake was still right. He wondered what help someone else could be that he himself couldn't privately but didn't voice that. Instead, he bit his lip nervously. "Well... yes and no. I don't actually know how to contact her because I lost her number as soon as she gave it to me. I'm all you got kid." Leith finally showed his displeasure with the insinuation through pursing his lips and furrowing his eyebrows. "And if that's not good enough, fine. You two can be on your own just like the pair of us are. Demiveemon, digitize." Demiveemon obediently recalled himself to the digivice, though his face was still visible on its screen. That gave Leith a chance to breath and compose himself. "Look, I get how stressful and weird it is because I went through it. But can you, like, use your head a little?

While Leith and Blake were talking, a Security Guard came outside of the store."あなたは私がカメラのフィードであなたを見たとは思わなかった?" He muttered under his breath. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Alright, fine." Blake sighed. "Anyways, let me try what you did." He spoke as he held out his D-3 at Viximon. "Viximon, digitze He said in a bit of a loud tone as it didn't do anything "You have got to be kidding me-"
"こんにちは!あなたはここに戻ってくるはずがない!" Someone yelled from the outside as at the end of his sentence, he seemed to be heard a bit closer and louder with footsteps. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Blake's heart quickly went beating as he then grabbed Leith by the arm and had him crouch down with Viximon following him. "I really don't want to be here. This is my first time in another continent and I really don't want to make a bad first impression." Blake said quickly. He then walked while crouching and disappeared into an aisle of old computers and hardware. "Look at all this. This could be sold and can probably make hundreds out of these?" Blake thought to himself. Viximon decided to speak up. "What a waste!"It huffed.
Blake stopped as his heart rate was going up as he heard the security guard. "私はアメリカ人のことを聞くことができます!あなた自身を示してください!"
"Viximon, please be quiet!"Blake whisper yelled as he covered Viximon's mouth partially.

Damnit. Had my chance, and I missed it. I can already see the Buzzfeed headline: A couple Americans were arrested in a closed store, and you won't BELIEVE what they had with them! As Leith listened closely to the voice's distance, he also counted the number of them that he'd heard, and he was at least pleased by the answer: one. The young man conveyed this by holding up one finger to the face of the rookie tamer. He then mouthed but didn't say the words, "Follow my lead."
He waited, then, in complete silence. The security guard sure didn't seem to be in a rush, but he was definitely coming in their direction, Leith thought. So, when he thought the guard was as close as he could get without spotting the trio, Leith circled around the shelf to stand beside it instead of behind it, all the while staying low. He then beckoned for Blake to do the same.

"Okay, Viximon. Follow what I'm doing." Blake whispered as he slowly crouch walks to another shelf that was beside him and he stood up. Viximon ran over to his tamer as it suddenly heard the guards footsteps. Surprisingly, the Guard appeared in the middle of Leith and Blake but, went right past them. "私は別のものを試してみましょう. HELLO! Your from the U.S, yes?" The Guard yelled in the room the Blake used to be in before it exploded in his face. He started to head inside, unaware that the intruders were right behind them.
Blake breathed a quiet sigh of relief. He looked at Leith to grab Viximon and held him as if he was a plush."Be still until I put you inside the paper bag, okay?" He asked Vix with it whispering "Okay.Whatever it is." and moved to the opposite direction the guard was walking."Follow my lead." He whisper yelled at Leith. As he speed walks, he could see the entrance/exit and made a beeline towards it. He finally made it out as he went towards the table where he was and quickly sat in it to carefully place Viximon inside. "How long am I supposed to stay in here, anyway?" It asked him, standing on the cups of ramen. "Long enough until, we get home. I may have to place my new clothes on top of you and poke home in the paper bag so you can breathe." Blake explained to Viximon.

This kid's gonna kill me. Despite Leith's internal whining, he successfully navigated the shelves and obstacles to sneak back underneath the security shutter and out. Now he could only hope his face was seen neither by the guard nor by any surveillance cameras. He took longer than Blake did, and that's why when Blake got away Leith had to track him down again. At least that was a face Leith knew he'd never forget, as it was the one that almost got him arrested for trespassing. When he finally tracked Blake down again, he was finally able to breathe. "Alright, new rule: if your destiny calls to you from inside a closed store, tell destiny that it can go fuck itself." Leith seemed to have no regard for Blake's young age in his choice of words.
"You got out, didn't you?" Demiveemon piped up.
"That's not the point."
"Well, it should be!" insisted the digimon.
"That... fine. Whatever."

Blake shrugged at him. "Okay." Not affected by his profanity. In New Orleans, he hears a lot of people use swears but, it doesn't really make him want to gasp at that person. It'd draw more attention to him, which, he doesn't want.
"Anyway, it won't be long before the guard comes back out. I mean, if you want to move somewhere else and talk, I don't mind."
"Maybe somewhere private where me and DemiVeemon could hangout a bit?" Viximon requested.
Blake looked at Viximon from the paper bag and looked at Leith. "You know. Getting to know each other more can take some pressure off of us along with maybe getting away from these cameras."
"What do you mean? I don't feel pressure."Viximon spoke, not knowing what he meant.
Blake then looks at the paper bag where Vix was in. "I mean by how that Guard could try and catch us on sight. Not to mention the camera he mentioned. Lucky for me, I learned to speak and understand Japanese. Not to mention, that there's the same camera that saw us come in and get out." He then looks around to then pinpoint a security camera stationed to a wall. "We should try and erase the recording of the camera in the Security Room or we'll probably never be able to set foot again in this mall. Or in any mall for that matter." He explained.
Vix then tilted it's head and spout out "What?"
Blake comically fell over in stress. "Seriously?"
