how long can you run away from your problems for [open]

Ry heard the shouts coming towards him, quickly getting louder and louder as they headed his way. He snapped his head back as he watched the girl and a purple thing come crashing past him, completely oblivious of his existence.

And both of them immediately careened into a basket in the unusual place, making a fool of themselves that Ry couldn't help but chuckle a little.

He squinted a little bit, and then immediately relaxed when he recognised them both, they had been trapped alongside him, and it seemed they took the same way he did. It was also much better too since he also liked the purple guinea pig's bravado, so it was great to see they managed to get away.

He walked over to them and then held both his hands out, one for the girl and one for the bean, "It's good to see you guys again," he said, "Need a hand?"

Ry took their hands firmly and pulled them up, though he tried to be gentle about it. It must have hurt rolling into a gigantic basket, which was odd even for Digital World standards. Oh well, he can think about that later.

Sensing the worry from their stares, he quickly said, "Don't worry, we're long gone from any of the drilly boys," he glanced behind him, "They stopped chasing me once I got into the forest, and I don't hear their drills from below us, so we're good."

He couldn't help but smile when the purple bean declared that she was going to beat up the drilly guys, "If you're going to go beat them up, I'll come with you," he replied, not in a sarcastic manner at all, though he didn't know how useful he would actually be in a fight, "Yeah I'm good, are you guys fine though? They didn't touch me, thankfully."

Then he took another look around at the place they were in, the colourful area and the eggs were certainly out of character from the dangerous Digital World, and the quietness of the place even more so. He still couldn't see anyone around, it was just the three of them there, "Do you guys know where this place is? Or what it is?"

Before he could say anything more, he looked down to see a big green-striped egg roll down their way and bump into his foot. He stared at it, the ground was flat, there was no one there, how did the egg roll its way over to them?

Ry couldn't help but smirk at the two, especially at the purple guinea pig, "You and me both," he chuckled, "Trust me, half of the life-threatening situations I get in were not my fault."

"Village of Beginnings? So... the eggs just come out of nowhere?" he picked up the the egg by his foot, stared at it, then looked around, "Why is there no one here, looking after the eggs? What if one of those drilly mons come after us and start destroying this place?"

Ry frowned, unconsciously rubbing the egg in his hand as he looked around the entire field.

Ry couldn't help but smirk more when the girl pointed at the purple bean as the source of most of her problems, looking at the guinea pig, Ry could certainly understand why she said so. The bean was definitely not helping with the drilly bois earlier, no matter how hilarious it was to watch.

"Digimon don't have the birds and the bees?" Ry asked, couldn't help but being a little bit mischievous for a bit. Though, he has noticed that digimon have a... lack of reproductive organs. It makes sense that they birth other digimon in some other way instead.

The bean gave the egg a poke, and the egg jolted in Ry's hands a lot stronger than the poke had been. Ry yelped and accidentally let the egg go, it fell to the ground yet did not crack open. Curiously, instead, it began to shake more, little cracks starting to form from the top of the egg. Ry could only stare at it, dumbfounded, and also afraid of ruining the egg more by touching it.

Then suddenly, the cracks began to form faster, and faster, until little pieces of the egg shell began to fall away, and before Ry could stop it, the egg burst open, revealing what looked like... a black blob?

"Bota!" it exclaimed, and then somehow jumped five feet up into Ry's hand.

"Uh."

Though Ry had only asked the question in jest, he raised his eyebrow when he saw that the purple bean had taken his question more-or-less seriously. A smirk also widened when the bean actually answered as well. Copy and pasting two digimons together? That's definitely digital for you alright.

Ry snorted at the last example though, "Digimon coming from dead ones? So like zombies?" he joked, "I'd like to see that one day."

He then glanced back down to the black ball in his hand and nearly jumped from the sudden squeal from the girl, "You guys have seen this before?" then glanced with a frown at the bean, "This was you once? You turned from black to purple?"

Ry squinted at the black ball a little closer, and then prodded at it with gently with a finger with his free hand. The fur squealed and a blast of bubbles appeared from it, obviously spat out by the little thing. Ry grinned, "You're a cute little one," he looked at the other two, "Should we give it a name?"
