After a small break from the digital world the man known as Kyosuke Ishida was ready to head back only this time he had a goal to achieve and that was finding the totem of the Human Spirit, his last adventure show him that this world is not a game and should be taken seriously, he didn't know how much time would it take to find the totem or where he was going to find it so he prepared his gym backpack and fill it with things he thought would need mainly food and bottles of water, after that he would aboard the Trailmon back to that weird world.
"You know? I still don't believe you're ready for another taste of my power, but if you're set on getting it I will help you, go to the ancient ruins in the dessert that's where I feel my power is dormant, your digivice should be able to track it" the spirit talked
Kyosuke shrugged, he wasn't feeling like talking but at least he is not going blind on this search, once he got out of the trailmon the man found the Otamamon waiting for him and with a quick movement she climb up to his shoulder and gave him a small hug.
"You're finally back!" Said the little frog cheerfully "You said one day and you left a whole week! Luckilly for you a good explorer like me won't start an adventure without her partner, where are we going?"
"Ruins in the folder desert, I am going to track my human totem, you I have no idea, desert ain't pl─" He stop mid sentence "What do you mean a week? It was a day on my world" he said a little confuse
"Mhm! It was a whole week you meanie! Better this adventure be great!" Aoi jumped from Kyo's shoulder to his gym bag "And don't worry, this thing seems cool and look it has water bottles! I can survive on the desert!" Said popping her head out of the bag and holding one of the bottles
The man sighed and accepted that once again the little frog was going to be by his side, without much options he took another trailmon that leave him right in the desert and after figuring out how the radar for the totem works in the digivice they started their little adventure

Today was a good day for Emil, the travelling Tentomon merchant (and self proclaimed squire). Despite suffering under the scorching heat of the desert like anyone else, he actually had a good reason to be here: that was he had heard about a particularly reclusive Offmon that lived in the desert, who had a rather interesting collection of old artifacts from the “Human World”. So of course, having nothing better to do, he set out to find this old hermit, who lived in a small clay hut in quite literally the middle of nowhere. After a good hour of bartering, he had acquired a piece of supposedly ancient human tech from the hermit. Something commonly known as a “boom box”, that while (much to Emil’s relief) was not a box filled with explosives, but actually a device made to play music and recordings on some equally ancient piece of tech referred to as "cassettes". Emil wasn't one that kept in touch with the times, exactly. In addition he was also carrying the respectable sum of five “mixtapes” from the digimon, each labeled with different types of music. So after putting the one labeled “Rock”, the small beetle was resting by the shade of a raggedy parasol, sitting happily behind his metallic cart filled with random goodies, all the while whistling trying (and failing) to go along with the song coming from the box. It wasn’t long until his peace would be disturbed however, as in the distance he noticed a figure approaching his direction. At first it was hard to tell from that distance if it was real or a mere mirage caused by the sun, but soon it became apparent the seemingly human individual was as real as Emil was. The bug immediately perked up from his seat, and turned up a notch the volume of the boom box, as he waved in the direction of the shape, beckoning it to get closer. “You there! Are you lost, mister?“

Kyo was walking down the dunes of the desert following the mark on the radar of his digivice, no matter how much he walked the mark didn't seemed to get closer and wherever he looked he only spoted an endless sea of sand, right now he regret every decision chosen, maybe if he knew he was comming to the desert before being inside of the trailmon and without a way to go back, maybe he would be wearing something more "cooler" than his every day clothes.
On the other hand Aoi wasn't even affected by the merciless heat, while of course she feel the change on the ambient, she was confortable in one of the many pockets of the backpack with a couple of bottles of water that she was drinking every so often to stay hydrated, a desert wasn't place of an aquatic digimon like her.
After some minutes (or hours) Kyosuke finally thought he lost it when he started hearing rock music... Stopping in place and taking a look he spoted a bug? It looked like a ladybug carrying a cart full of junk and a really old boom box (that was the source of the music), once they got closer the digimon ask him if he was lost.
"Beat it ladybug, I have a radar I know where I'm going" he said paying little to no attention to the digimon, but of course after hearing another voice his "partner" pop up from the backpack
"No, wait! I want to see what he sells, not everyday we met a street vendor in the middle of the desert" Said Otamamon cheerfully. "Please forgive my partner he is a little grumpy, my name is Aoi nice to meet you mister bug vendor"
"Up to you frog" he said putting Aoi out of his backpack and leaving her in the sand "Make sure she makes it safe to Terminus once she finish buying your stuff" As soon as he started walking again the little frog step in front of him (having a little trouble becase she wasn't use to be on sand)
"Awww come on don't be like that..." Aoi pouted "Besides I think it'll be best if you take a rest right now while I check things, it would be bad if you dehydrate once we find the ruins"
Welp... That was a good point and as much as Kyosuke hated to admit it he had no choice, with a long sigh he sit and with his hand make a motion to the frog so she can go buy whatever the tentomon was selling, a little break from walking in the sea of sand didn't sound bad after all

The bug tilted his head slightly at the man's dimissive attitude to him, a feeling of deja vu creeping in. Wasn't the last human he met treated him in the almost same way? That said, it would appear this human wasn't alone, and his partner seeed far more outgoing than he was. "That's quite alright, we all have bad days." Emil reassured the frog, nodding, before fluttering to the front of the cart. "A pleasure to meet you, Miss Aoi, my name is Emil and I'd be honored if you take a look at my wares."He opened the two small doors on the front of the cart, revealing inside them a plethora of metallics doodads and thingamajigs: small bracelets and pendants, crooked rings and forks, even a rusty (but still functioning) pocket watch, anything you could think of that could be made out of metal and sold was there. "I sell many odds and ends found on every nook and cranny of this vast world, everything here specially tailored to making your life just a little bit more simple, or just to look good." "Everything you see on sale here was either found or made by me, except this strange human contraption." He said, tapping the top of the boombox, accidentally pressing one of the buttons on it, causing it to skip to the next track. "Ohoho, how delightful."
Hearing the Otamamon addressing the human again, Emil also chimed in. "Oh! I have cold water too if you need it, mister, this thing here comes with a built in cooler! Just 20 bits per bottle or get one for free if you buy anything else! Its hot out here and I'd hate for any potential client to dehydrate under this sun!" Hell, had it been any hotter he would have offered them the water for free! Having to pay money for such a valuable resource in such a harsh climate was not something he was all too keen on.
Speaking of dehydration, not too far from there another figure walked in the desert, guided by the sound of classical rock hits in the hopes of finding something resembling civilization. How the blonde Sasha had ended up here was for reasons better left ambiguous, though it involved a stupid bet on a bar with some rather shady looking Gazimons, and a heck of a lotta booze. "Never. Drinking. Again." Sasha cursed aloud, one hand raised in an attempt at keeping the sun from her face. "That's what you always say." The spirit named Siegfried that was floating close to her quipped, earning him a growl and a stare from the girl. At the very least she was getting close to the source of the music.

The frog was more than happy with the nice treatment that the Tentomon was showing, it was a nice bug that knew how to treat his customers, the little Otamamon took a look at all the things the ladybug was selling, small bracelets that could fit her perfectly as necklaces, pendants that she would love to wear but sadly no ears and while a watch seemed useful she doesn't know how to read the hour (I mean it's not like something you need to do when your home is the jungle and all hours are "serve the boss" hour)
"So many nice and shiny things, it must have take you a long time to collect all this goodies!" Said Aoi impress with all the items were on sale. "I don't know what to buy... What do you recommend? We're adventurers so we need the best shiny thingies we can have, or at least to look good, I'm loving those bracelets!"
Meanwhile Kyosuke was facepalming, he got trapped in one of the worst possible scenarios... Shopping with a girl, in his boredom waiting for his """partner""" to finish he had an idea, maybe this bug knew something about the ruins nearby.
"Hey bug, do you know if there is something on this ruins? I'm looking for a totem of some sorts, or better yet if you know what kind of digimon roam around this place that will be helpful too"
After that the man just sit and took a sip of his bottle of water waiting for the answer and Aoi to finish shopping, in a best case scenario the bug will give a lot of helpful information, in the worst case he'll still wandering this desert with no clear clue aside from the arrow on his digivice beeping and pointing to a direction.
"Someone else is getting closer... This is what? The fourth spirit user you'll met? It's weird seems like a we al are destined to meet" The spirit talk "As always I can not tell if it's an ally or an enemy but stay on your guard"
Kyo just shrugged the warning as always and kept lost in his own thoughts waiting for Otamamon to be done with Shopping so they can keep their exploration.

"Well I can't say its an easy task, but it's certainly fulfilling!" Emil happily nodded to the tadpole. He wasn't lying either: whatever he didn't craft himself he either bought, traded or found somewhere, and the nature of the digital world meant there were countless times where the acquisition method had been...less than mundane, to say the least.
To put it simply, let's just say every bit and piece that was on display for sale had it's own little history attached to it.
"Ah, a nice choice! This one would certainly look great on you, missus Aoi." He said as he grabbed a hold of the bright, if a bit dusty bracelets that were hanging from one of the chains of his cart, carefully handing them over to Aoi so she could try them on. "They're made from pure silver, so not only they're quite light, you don't have to worry about them ever getting rusty if you take them for a swim."
These had been rather difficult for Emil to obtain, the original buyer had accidentally lost them on a river, forcing the poor bug to search through the river downstream all the way to one of Whitewater's beaches, just so he could get his money's worth back! Obviously he had planned to sell those for a somewhat hefty price to make up for all the effort...but now that he saw the gentle frog digimon showing this much interest in his wares, he couldn't bring himself to do such a thing.
"If you like them you can have them for a special prize, just 70 bits a piece!" He offered, taking a small sip from his own bottle of water before offering it to Aoi. She was an aquatic digimon, she certainly looked like she needed to stay well hydrated.
The beetle perked up at Kyo's question, and he thought in silence for a bit before replying him.
"I'm afraid I haven't seen or heard any totem in there good sir, though I vaguely felt some strong energies converging close to the ruins." He said, scratching the back of his head. "Though I would suggest you to stay away from there if you can, good sir, I heard there's a group of rather unfriendly digimon that rob everyone that trespasses their turf."
He shook his head at that. In a way, it was hard for him to blame digimon for engaging in such underhanded activites out here. The desert was a harsh place to live, and you sometimes did crazy things when desperate. It didn't make what they did morally right, however.
Suddenly, a familiar figure approaching the cart caught the tentomon's attention. Thin, blonde, and fairly shorter than the human male. It was impossible to forget such a person, and Emil's core practically skipped a beat as he flew from behind his cart and closer to the familiar face.
"Lady Sasha!" He exclaimed happily, his wings buzzing gently as the bug fluttered high enough so his face would be at the same height as the Russian's. The blonde was surprised for a moment, but judging by her expression it was clear she too remembered the digimon.
"Oh, hey...Emily, was it?" Well...mostly.
"Emil, actually, but yes it's me! It's nice to see you safe and sound after all this time, Lady Sasha." He said, landing back on the sand and giving her a regal bow of his head. Sasha could simply shake her head, amused.
"Likewise, little bug." She said, the smallest hint of a smile on her lips. There was something about Emil's amiability that was just a bit contagious. She looked up to the other pair, however, and she couldn't help but quirk an eyebrow. It seemed as if she wasn't the only one lost.
"Far from home, you two?"

Aoi's face show a huge smile and her eyes shine when the silver bracelet was shown, the fact that she could take it for a swim and it wouldn't get rusty made the frog jump in place in excitement
"YES! YES! YES! I WANT IT! I WANT IT!" Kyosuke sighed and quickly pay for the bracelet, with some little problems the frog manage to put the bracelet around her body like a necklace, since she was small enough to wear it that way "YAAAAAAAAY! Do I look pretty? I feel pretty, what do you think Mr Emil?" She asked running around her partner, the Tentomon and cart
Seems that the bug didn't know much about their objective, figures it'll be weird if a normal digimon has an idea of the spirits, of course as his own partner point out spirit wielders are not uncommon as it seems but for normal digimon the whole thing should be weird to say the list, after all they know about their own cycle of returning to egg why would they believe that their fragments can turn into totems and chose a human to lend their powers.
One thing that he mention did call Kyo's attention, "I heard there's a group of rather unfriendly digimon that rob everyone that trespasses their turf." Well that sounds like a group that needs to be taught a lesson and who knows? Maybe those do know something and if they don't who cares? A fight is a fight and if they go robbing people means they're strong, which means they abuse their powers and turns them into Bullies, or at least it does on Kyo's weird reasoning.
"So what you're saying is that there is a group of thieves that attack innocents? Well guess it's time for some good old bully hunt!" He said cracking his knuckles
Soon the person his spirit was mentioning appeared, a girl that if it wasn't for her facial features you could pretty much mistake with a kid for how small she was and sure Kyosuke himself might be a tower for how tall he is, but this girl sure didn't won the lottery on the body department.
"I mean,, she actually is, I'm pretty sure frogs belong to lakes" Said pointing at Aoi "I on the other hand will follow this device to the ruins and if I found any group of thieves or bullies I'll beat them up" With a proud smile on his face he show his D-tector pointing on direction to the ruins
"Sure, go ahead, reveal yourself as a Spirit Wielder lose the element of surprise" If he had any, the spirit would be rolling his eyes, if the girl and her spirits are dangerous thinking that the frog is his partner could be useful, but no, let's just drop that
"Oh shut up you!" Was all Kyosuke answer

Truth be told, Aoi's delighted reaction upon buying the bracelet was nothing short of adorable to the Tentomon. Seeing the happy smile of a satisfied customer was just as gratifying as the actual money from the sale. "Heh, I'd say you look positively dazzling, Lady Aoi." The bug said with a nod, before turning to face Kyo.
"Mhm, yes that's exactly what I mea-" The tentomon fell suddenly silent as he heard the human explaining what he was planning on doing...needless to say the beetle practically jumped from out of his cart and stood right in front of the human. "Wowowow, mister, you're not seriously going there willingly, are you? It's dangerous!"
Seriously, what was it with humans being so eager to head straight into danger like that?! Why were they all this reckless? Sasha meanwhile, could only shake his head in...amusement? Mockery? Hard to say.
"A bully hunter spirit, eh?" She chuckled, giving the man a smug look that was rather unfitting for someone that was two heads smaller than him. "Seems like a bit of a waste of time if you ask me. Who the hell is there to bully in the desert?"
"You mean besides travellers looking for a place to rest?" A familiar voice whispered to head, inaudible to anyone but her and perhaps the man's spirit.
"Who asked your opinion?" She spat back in annoyance, not really caring what anyone thought of her for yelling at seemingly no one in particular. If they thought she was insane well that was their problem, not hers.
At this Emil could only tilt his head in slight confusion, before quickly nodding in agreement at her words.
"Yes, yes, quite! You should let the uhm...local authorities deal with this, sir. No need for you to needlessly endanger your finite human life."

"Thank you~" Said the frog happily following Emil's compliment, having someone say something nice to her is a good change of pace to the usual "FROG WE ARE NOT PARTNERS" she always receives. "At least looks like some one can finallly appreciate beauty!" She said teasingly but Kyo's mind was in a whole different place to actually pay attention to her
The concern of the bug was a little laughable for the man if we are honest, sure he has all the reasons to be worried about the normal human he just met that was going to jump into the wolf's fangs, but he was not a normal human nor he was scare of the wolf's fangs, he was the wolf and if this group thinks they can go around attacking innocents they're the ones jumping into his fangs
"I'll be wandering the desert anyways, so might as well look for those idiots and give them a lesson"
The comment of the blonde wasn't unnotice and yeah many would agree that it was a waste of time because nothing assures you that they won't go back to bullying people once you finish with them, it's worth trying, besides even if it doesn't change anything it beats wandering the desert without much clear objective that follow an arrow
"I see I'm not the only one having trouble with his Chosen one" Well that's a new one, the spirit talking but not directly to Kyo... Who then? Naturally the wolf hoped that the girl's spirit was able to hear him as well "Although I do agree with my wielder this time, he injustice of that group should be punished
Endanger his finite human life? I mean fair, but at the same time who say he can't take them? Kyo doesn't trust in the authorities looking at how much of a wasteland with no sign of civilization this desert looks like it's basically begging for someone to get here and set things right
"I don't think of myself as a hero or as a fighter for justice, but I am not turning the blind eye when there is a group of idiots taking advantage of weaker person or in this case digimon, trust me bug I ain't going down after one punch I make a living out of beating people up, so you're with me or move out of the way" He said as calm as possible although that delivery sound a little like a threat
"Yup hero's duty is calling the great adventurers are on the case!" Said Aoi jumping back into the gym bag getting ready to hit the desert path once again
"I feel this will be an oportunity for both oof our chosen one to learn something, might as well come with us, what do you say?" The spirit talk again to the girl's hoping it'll help them out with this, just now maybe having a little of company wouldn't hurt specially if it's someone that will listen to him

Sasha could feel the spirit of the Gladimon moving just slightly away from her position and closer to the man, almost as if he was trying to reach out and give him a handshake...or rather give one to his spirit.
"Aha, I knew I could feel a strange power nearby and it wasn't coming from Lady Aoi, so I was quite perplexed for a moment there. Glad to see I'm not quite losing it yet, at least! Allow me to present myself, my name is Siegfried, who do I have the pleasure of meeting today?" The spirit responded to his equally incorporeal comrade, pure elation in his voice and his words going at a hundred miles per hour. Was it too obvious he hadn't talked with any other spirits before? This was equal parts an exciting yet familiar experience for him somehow, but a positive one none the less! That said he tried to focus on the matter at hand, scratching the top of his helmet with a pensive look. "Hmm, yes quite so, such acts should be switfly stopped and the culprits dealt with. On my honor as a knight I refuse to let such a thing slide!" He stated, conviction in his voice.
Sasha merely shrugged at this, but didn't go against the spirit's words. If that's what Sieg wanted, then it was probably better for her to comply. Not like there was anything else going on today. Emil however was less than thrilled, if anything he seemed to be getting slightly annoyed at the man's stubborness.
"Tch...please mister, you're not making any sense..." He said, rubbing his insectoid...temples(?) in frustration. He didn't know what was worse, how single minded the human was in his apparent goal...or how much the insect agreed with him deep down. He too wanted to deal with those bandits, but he couldn't do so while endangering a human! That would be grossly irresponsible of a squire! "..miss Sasha! Please make him listen to reason!" He said, turning to face the russian with a hint of noticeable desperation in his voice.
Sasha's response? She gave a small eye roll, before quipping, "Sheesh, you sure do like sounding like a hero despite "not being one". Or at least a hardass." She shook her head, smirking. "That said, those guys do sound like a huge bunch of dicks, they could probably use an asskicking or two to straighten them up."
It was probably hard to notice considering Tentomons weren't exactly known for emoting a lot, but the way Emil stared in silence at Sasha it wasn't hard to imagine the poor bug being completely slackjawed and dumbfounded.
"Don't encourage him!!!"
That being said Sasha seemed just content with hang behind and watch everything unfold, not really having any stakes on the situation, at least until Kyo's spirit adressed Siegfried once again, offering him to join in and help in the ensuing fight. Needless to say, the Gladimon was more than onboard.
"Oh, we'd be honored to fight along side you! Right Sasha?"
"Ehhh, "honored's" kind of a strong word." She shrugged, eyeing the man up and down, making an unimpressed "hmm" as she did. "Would be a damn shame to see such a pretty face get ruined by a buncha wannabe good for nothin' looters, so I suppose I can lend a hand."
"What is you humans' obsession with jumping into danger?!" The tentomon practically yelled. Now Sasha was going too? This was quickly getting out of hand, and it was clear there was nothing he could do to stop them really. He sighed, knowing what he was going to do yet not exactly looking forward to it.
"...I guess I'll have to be your guide to that place then. I can't stop you from going but at least I can keep you from wandering the desert forever."
This was going to be a long day, wasn't it?

It was hard to explain, Kyo could feel something getting closer to his position worst of all was the sound of another voice talking and it seemed that it was aimed at him... Could.. Could it be that he's hearing another spirit? He could also feel a warm feeling inside, almost as if his own spirit was happy with this meeting
"A pleasure to meet another digimon in the same position as me, unfortunately Sir Siegfried my body, name and memories are gone or rather scatter with whats left of my power, I have a theory that once my wielder finds the fragments of my power I will regain my memories and pieces of my history" The spirit say and if he could would've bow as a sign of respect "For now I'm just the spirit of an old warrior of light that seeks to see this world at peace and free of evil"
Kyosuke sighed and let the spirit meeting go, he was surprised to be able to hear another one this was literally the first time that happen, was this common or just a rare ocurrance? He didn't knew many spirit wielders now that he thinks about it, there was Amelie but he never hear her spirit, he didn't saw her evolve at all, and... That's all... Amelie is the only Spirit Wielder he knows, in anycase better focus on the worries of the Tentomon
"Am I making no sense? Alright, maybe if I explain you my line of logic you'll follow me" He said taking a deep breath, honestly he thought it was obvious but might as well explain it "If you knew about a crime and you had the power to stop it, wouldn't be smart to use that power and stop it?" And then a much better example come to mind "What if you were the next target of this bandits? What if they attack you, steal your bits and trash your cart with the things you're selling, wouldn't you want someone to help you and stop them?" The man wait for Emil's response and after that he said "Well, it just happens that I'm a guy with a power to fight those kind of idiots, I did it in my world and I'll do it here, so you're with me or you can step aside"
The other spirit and the blonde seemed to agree on following them, of course he wasn't paying much attention to them as Kyo had a goal set and was ready to go, tho that dosen't mean the "pretty face" comment of Sasha went unnotice by certain frog, Aoi simply look at the blonde and let out a small "Hmmmm" Who knows what is going on the the little tadpole's head?
And so the group started their walk through the desert, much like before the heat was the worst part for Kyo but that aside they kept a good march, looking at his D-Tector he follow the arrow pointing in the direction of his Totem when something odd happen, it show that not only the Totem was getting closer but something else.
Soon enough the group would see some kind of chariot being pull by a group of Unimon and when it was close to them it started circling around the group and once it stop a group of several Goblimon came down from the chariot, followed by an Ogremon with a Dobermon X by his side
"BEHOLD WHO STANDS IN FRONT OF YOU IT IS I THE ERLKING! Leader of the Gobli Bandits of the desert, Give us all your important belongings and we will leave peacefully, fail to do so and we are going to crush every single bit out of your body" The Ogremon shouted, he was carrying something around as a necklace, something Kyo's spirit recognize immediately
"I can sense it!, that thing around his neck is one of my fragments!"
"Alright, I hear ya discount Hulk, but what if I choose to fight? Let's make it even more interesting, if I beat you you give me that thing around your neck, deal?"
The Ogremon nor Goblimon couldn't hold their laughter, a puny human challenging the leader? He must be completely crazy! And then he had the nerve to ask for the artifact of the Boss if he wins? That was just too hilarious!
"Give me one reason to accept and I'll consider it" Said Erlking "Like, what would happen when I win?"
"IF you win" Kyo correct the Ogre "Let me consult with my companions and I'll get back to you" He then turn to Sasha and Emil "Alright, what do you guys have that can be eye catching enough to put as a bet?"

"I see, I'm sorry to hear that, sir, but I can see your heart is in the right place, so it would be my honor to help you two out in any way I can." Was the knightly spirit's response to Kyo's own spiritual companion, Sieg giving a small bow of his own, trying to keep his dignified look as much as he could while being frankly...giddy on the inside. They said chivalry was dead, and here he was, talking with another spirit with few memories yet just wanting to improve the world. Who knew, for all he knew he might even have been a knight too!
As for Emil well, it might have not been immediatelly apparent for Kyosuke, his words resonated hard within the stubby bug's core, silencing his cries and whines. "The power to stop them", was it. "Mister...if I had the power to do so don't you think I would have done it days ago?" He chuckled, though it was obviously a bittersweet sounding laugh, almost as if it knew how flimsy of a comeback that was. He sighed once again, and took a step back and put himself next to the man. "I see your point, sir. It's just...well, don't take this personally but...in my experience humans don't tend to put up great fights against even the weakest of digimon."
"But if you insist on going I'll just say this: I might not have to power to stop those ruffians...but I will do everything in my power to keep you all from harm." He finally declared, puffing his...chest? Thorax? At any rate he sure looked very much ready for anything ahead.
"If you two are done with the pep talk let's just get going. Their asses aren't going to get kicked themselves." Sasha laughed, as they all started their walk into the desert. While the heat was just as unbearable as ever, luckily it didn't took them terribly long to finally run into the idiots they were looking for. Of course they would be the guys riding a large chariot pulled by equally massive horses. And as soon as the self declared leader came off the tacky ride with his massive Dobermon X and goblinesque followers in tow Sasha could only...chuckle a bit to herself.
It was like she had wandered into a weird fantasy version of a Mad Max ripoff, too freaking out there for her to take it fully seriously. And Kyo's answer to the unjolly green giant's challenge was met with a laugh of similar intensity. This guy was either too brave for his own good, or as insane as these troll rejects. Something that of course, she couldn't hel but find somewhat endearing. But as soon as he turned to them and asked for something to for lack of a better word "bet" to this Erkling guy well...that was tricky. She didn't really have anything too valuable on her other than her digivice, and she wasn't risking that one even on a rigged fight.
Fortunately she had another idea. A terrible one, but an idea nonetheless. She'd crouch next to the Tentomon, and would whisper something only he would hear. He was clearly shocked by whatever she said, but after some visible back and forth, he'd finally nod affirmatively once, begrudgingly.
After that? Well...Sasha would just scoop him up and hold him over her head, before turning to the giant green Ogremon. "Would some sturdy slave labor be a good prize?"
Morally questionable? Yes, but she wasn't really planning on selling poor Emil away...hopefully.
