What in the name of Jebus had just happened. He rememberd finding this little, sentien bomb named Shepard in his gradnparents garage. Shepard had guided him to the river and then jumped in, with John jumping after him to prevent the death of the little guy. And now, now he woke up in this strange, massive city, which definitlely wasn't Tokyo. How did that happen? Shepard on the other hand didn't seem bothered at all, he was happily jumping around John, before he stopped and explained. "I was right. There was a portal to the Digital World in the river and now we're back home....oh." Shepard seemed to now realize that he hadn't told John this and seemed slightly embarressed. "God dammit." John mumbled as he looked around, before he noticed something in his pocket, something that hadn't been there before. He pulled something metallic out, it looked some sort of old phone or pocket computer, which was green with golden grips. Shepards eyes, all three of them, were fixed on the thing and after a few moments of shock and bewilderment, he almost exploded, pun intended, screaming: "Oh my Goddramon.You have a Digivice, you have a digivice. That mean you must be my partner, my Tamer, oh my Goddramon." the little bomb seemed to be ecstatic and even touched the "Digivice", which immediately radiated a bright light. Once it had faded, Shepard was gone or mhad cahnged his appearence to be precise. Instead of bomb with three eyes, he was now some sort of missle thing with red eyes, that raced around his head, while screaming. "Yes, you are my partner, I digivolved to Missimon." Ok, now John was completely lost for words and his brain turned off for a moment. What was going on ?

It was a mostly tranquil afternoon at Terminus. People were going on about their business as usual, and while the megalopolis was as busy as always, it kinda had this calming air that Amelie appreciated.
What was she doing in here, you ask? Mostly shopping, in all honesty. The sales today had some good deals, and she wasn't going to miss out on them. After all, saving one bit at a time would make a fortune, wouldn't it?
The teenager just walked around at a relaxed pace. Relaxing was a nice change from the usual routine, and her intent was to just enjoy those spare moments for as long as she could. Her mind drifted from one thought to another, not managing to stick to anything in particular until, from the corner of her sight, she caught a glimpse of the light of digivolution. A glow that she knew all too well, I could mean a variety of things!
Her curious nature got the best from her, the brunette deciding to close the gap in order to check out what was happening. She felt a measure of relief at the event not triggering due to a violent situation, even though she had to admit that the newly-evolved digimon was... quite cute.
Missimon was its name, apparently! The sight of a young digimon slowly growing managed to bring a smile to Amy's face. By now, the gap that separated them had been completely closed, Amelie standing right beside the two strangers. "Congratulations! It's always nice to see a digimon evolving for the first time." Her tone was positively elated, and her face was already bearing a small smile. "Is it the first time, right? Sorry if I made a wrong assumption."
Was this the equivalent of a passerby compliment another's dog? Maybe!

John nearly jumped out of his skin, when a female voice suddenly addressed him, his brain still believing that Shepard needed to be hidden. It took a few seconds, first to remember that he was now in the "Digital World", meaning the world where Shepard had come from and second that he didn't have to hide him here. The young woman didn't seem to mind Shepard, who still happily flew circles around him, so John gathered himself and answered, still unsecure. "Thanks and yeah, I just found this little fella in my grandparents garage like an hour ago, than he lead me to the river and I jumped after him, cause I thought he'd drown. Seems like I was wrong there." he smiled a little during his last sentence, eyeing his "partner" as he also flew circles around the girl, happily greeting her. "I'm Shepard, nice meeting you, this is my partner John." he said, speaking a million words per second fast and racing around like a those pesky drones people played with. "By the way, I have to constantly fly or I'll fall to the ground." he explained his strange behavior, but this didn't stopepd his happyness. "My name's John by the way and yes, I have no idea where I am or even how I'll get back home." now he really was embarresed, but this young woman was his best hope for help.

A newbie in every sense of the word, it seemed! But that was fine; a fair number of them arrived at the Digital World every day, even though that, in a sense, every occasion was special in its own way. The young man had an interesting tale to tell, which prompted Amelie to nod, then to smirk slightly at the whole recap.
"That sounds like quite the trip if you ask me! It's a good thing that the river carried you here." Maybe not the best way to reassure somebody; shaking her head a bit, she abandoned that notion. "It's good to see you two are doing well, though! Terminus is definitely the right place to start a journey in the Digital World... or to go back, if that's what you want."
She couldn't avoid smiling at the hyperactive Missimon that now was flying in circles around her; gingerly the brunette tried to lightly caress the digimon as he passed by, even though that contact would be brief at best, considering that she didn't want to stop its march. "Nice to meet you, Shepard and John! My name's Amelie, but you can just call me Amy if you wanna; you'll probably appreciate the shorter word."
Snickering at her own remark, her gaze shifted from digimon to human. "Well, today's your lucky day!" The fake haughtiness was rather obvious in her tone. "You happen to have crossed paths with somebody who has been in this world for a fair bit of time, and that doesn't mind helping! So, if you have any questions regarding anything in particular regarding this place, how to get around, or just want to be shown the way back to the Human World, just ask!"
The confidence that her words instilled weren't fake, however. What would John, or even Shepard, ask the girl? There was only one way to find out!

Ok, maybe luck hadn't completely forsaken John, maybe Amy could explain him everything that had happend. Missimon was still speeding around them, so John did his best to ignore the little guy for the moment. "Thanks for your help. Now what should I ask first? Well, for one, do you have any idea why we are here in this world? Missimon just said that he's my partner now, so what does this mean and what is this strange device that suddenly appeared?" he showed her his digivice and after a short pause, added his final question. "Also, how can I get back home from here? I mean I can't stay here forever or my grandparents will tear me apart once I'm home." he realized that this sounded a bit strange, but hey better beeing honest than making up some stupid lies. However, he couldn't loose the feeling, that even if he would easily find a way home, this wouldn't end, like he was now part of something far bigger. Even Missimon had finally stopped racing around to land on Johns shoulder, waiting for Amy's answer.

That Missimon was a sweetheart, wasn't he? He seemed like a small, yet likable bundle of energy. The girl made a dismissive motion with her hand at John's thanking her; as much as she appreciated the words, she hadn't helped him any. At least, not yet.
"Why are you here?" Amelie was barely able to contain a snicker. "Well, you jumped into the River. That's how you got here; if you're asking about a purpose or something of the like, there's none. Call it luck, destiny or whatever, but the truth is that you now have access to a whole different world. The world where guys like Shepard and many, many more digimon inhabit. What you do with that knowledge and ability is entirely up to you."
There wasn't any higher calling or meaning on this whole deal. Just a human and a digimon brought together by whatever reason whoever was behind the whole process decided on. "You and Shepard have a bond now, though. How you go around it depends entirely on you; you'll have to get used to the little guy following you from now on, though. Take good care of him! It's not every day that a being that's willing to stick for you through thick and thin appears at your doorstep."
The last question was pretty understandable; luckily, it's answer was just as easy! "If you want to go back, you gotta go in that direction." A lone finger pointed towards the city's downtown. "The Trailmon station is that way. You should be able to identify the special platform that goes to the Human World; once there, just board the train and you'll arrive at Shibuya's Train Station in half an hour or so. Simple enough, right?"
Remaining on her stop, the brunette waited patiently in case either John or Shepard had any more questions. With any luck, she was being helpful!

Ok, so there was no higher reason behind him meeting Missimon, just destiny and chance. Well, the little guy on his shoulder had already grown on him a little, hopefully he wouldn't change another time, or hey become too large to hide. "Thanks alot Amy. One last question, any idea what people actually do here in the Digital World? I mean I guess we two aren't the only two humans here and people are probably doing stuff here, for whatever reason." John smiled now a little and Missimon joined him with that, she was very helpful to them and they were thankful. "Well, now you're my partner John and we'll be the greatest team in the world." Missimon exclaimed, while they waited for Amys answer and while Johns eyes inspected the surroundings a little. It actually looked like a normal city around here, not like anything people would imagine, if they heard about a "Digital World". He wouldn't complain about it, this seemed like a nice place and he could imagine himself coming here from time to time with his new partner, if only to relax a little. Well, hopefully Amy could tell him about a few things you can do here.

That last question was understandable, even if somewhat... vague to answer. Remaining thoughtful for a second, the brunette began to speak a bit after it was asked. "You're welcome. Regarding what to do here, it's pretty much a new world. And just like in ours, what you can do here is nearly limitless; the only main difference is that the culture can be very different and that its main inhabitants are digimons, but not much more than that."
Quickly shaking her head at the second statement presented by John, she waved her hand dismissively. "Nah. I'm not sure on the exact numbers, but I'd wager that there are at least ten thousand or so humans that know about; permanent inhabitants are few and far between since most people prefer to hop from one world to the other, but you're bound to find a handful if you look for them."
In all honesty, Amelie couldn't understand most of the people that preferred to make this world their permanent home, but she wasn't in the position to judge them. Smiling right away at Missimon's remark, she nodded. "I'd love to see how far you two can get. If you're willing to put the effort, I'm sure you'll become an amazing team."
What about Terminus? This place was huge, and the list of possibilities wear pretty much endless. "If you want to take a trip around this place, there's a lot you can do. Terminus is the biggest city of the Digital World, and has all the commodities a major city in the Human World has. From Trailmons to food to lodging to entertainment, you can do what you want." And after a pause, she added. "You can also find out a good deal of information about the other areas of the Digital World in here; from the Dark Area to the Empyrean Skies, this place is your best bet if you want to get acquainted with the general layout and how things work over here."
The decision was his! What would he want to do first?

Well, Amys explanations had now covered all of his questions. he knew how to get back home, check. He knew that there was stuff, cool stuff to do here, check. And he knew that he wasn't the only human and that there were actually quite alot more people here. Hadn't it been for Amys help, he'd probably be running around right now, screaming like crazy for help and how he could get back home. "Thanks alot Amy, i think I'll head back home first, before my family notices that I'm missing. Again thanks alot for your help, would have been really fucked up if I didn't met you. Since there are not that many humans here, I'm pretty sure I we'll meet again. Gonna give you out a drink then, once I have some money.", no he was not trying any sort of date and to be honest that thought didn't even cross his mind, he was trying to be nice, while saying goodbye to her. Missimon also waved Amy goodbye, although he was a bit sad to leave her, before he made himself more comfortable on his partners shoulder, as they walked to the train station.
(They both leave to the Trailmon Station)

No more queries for now, it seems! Both John and Shepard had managed to be fairly curious individuals, but it seems like their time to together was over. The brunette waved dismissively at the guy thanking her.
"Not needed; it was my pleasure! Have a safe trip home and hope I can see you again soon!" The offer for a drink was a bit on the weird side, but that was fine. It seemed like a nice way to thank her, even though that was ultimately unneeded.
As he got away, Amelie waved at him, a small smile on her face. It had been a fine gathering, overall. What about her now, however? In all honesty, the brunette didn't have a lot to do at the moment, but that was more than fine. Whether she decided to check out on Deeplane or just let an idle day of relaxation pass in the Digital World, chances were it was going to be a good afternoon. [Exit Thread]
