Alpha had already stayed in the Rustport town for a few days already as he rested his body and eating good food while also trying to prepare for his next adventure right after the little treasure hunt of his. He had gotten hurt in the little treasure hunt of his, which was why he spent so much time in the Rustport town just to heal up and restock on supplies. He walked into a store, in front of the shopkeeper looking up at the leomon behind the counter. "Hello there. I was wondering if you had supply crates or something i could buy off you sir. I would really need one, since i'm about to go on an adventure once again." Alpha looked up at leomon watching him smile and nodding down at Alpha. "Sure but the crates are coming tomorrow so you gotta wait for that. They come early in the morning so how about you come tomorrow early and i'll sell you supply crate, okay?" Alpha nodded and turned around walking out after saying "Alright, i'll come by early tomorrow and i hope i can open the crate at the back of your shop." He went back to the inn tavern of Rustport town before getting something to eat and drink before going to his room and retiring for the day. Resting well for tomorrow.
Early in the morning Alpha got up energetic before grabbing his stuff and walking to leomons store. He walked in and waved at the leomon behind the counter. "Well i'm here so let's go and check that crate i'll be buying." Leomon nodded and lead the way to behind the store to a warehouse with obviously newly arrived crates. Alpha walked up to a crate and patted it before looking at Leomon "I'll take this one. We can talk about the price after i check what's inside it okay?" Leomon nodded once again handing him Crowbar to open the wooden crate, just to see some supplies and a gigimon. "What? What is a gigimon doing in a supply crate?" Leomon shrugged looking as confused as Alpha.

The Gigimon yawned and stretched showing off their little rows of teeth as light suddenly filtered into their comfy napping spot. Leaving the tiny in-training digimon blinking their big blue eyes blearily at the sudden onslaught of illumination as they peered sleepily up at the two figures looming over them. "You're~" Eris began only to pause another jaw cracking yawn tearing it's way out of the little Gigimon's throat leaving them stretching with a tiny sleepy squeek. "You're not my Dad." They mumbled hugging their tail to themselves as they glanced around finding their location very different from what it had once been before they fell asleep. Instead of that old loading bay they'd been napping in now they found themselves in the back of what looked like a shop. Their eyes clearing enough from their sleep muss to realize that the two Digimon looming over them were a strange looking silver Dorumon and a Leomon. "Uncle Logane?" Eris called out unsure upon seeing the Leomon only to sniff at him realizing very quickly from his scent that this was not her Uncle. This Leomon lacked the distinctive scent of metal and cigar smoke that clung to her Uncle's fur like a second skin. "Not my Uncle..." The little Gigimon murmured with a frown before perking up realization seeming to spark through the little Digimon's body. "Hey! Wait! Did you kidnap me!? Are you bad guys!?" She questioned releasing her tail to point one little arm at the two of them eyes wide with a mix of alarm and excitement.

Alpha watched the little fellow slowly waking up thanks to the light illuminating the insides of the supply crate hearing gigimons cute little yawn as she was as surprised as they were. Alpha cracked a slight smile as it started apparently making guesses at who they were while still being half asleep until finally coming to a conclusion of them being kidnappers apparently. Alpha laughed a bit as he found the situation humorous of everyone to be as confused in such a situation before sighing a bit and looking down at the gigimon.
"Well more like we are the people who literally found you inside a supply crate after opening it, hoping that you could maybe explain why you were sleeping here. I guess you are as confused as we are then...now no need to panic. Take a deep breath and start from the beginning. Who are you? Where did you come from and why are you sleeping in a supply crate? Could you answer those for me lil fella?" Alpha smiled slightly looking down at the small gigimon wondering how this little guy actually did end up in a supply crate.
As Alpha was thinking there were door sounds coming from the store, someone obviously coming into the store making Alpha turn quickly to leomon "You can go take care of your shop, i'll handle this and i'll explain everything to you when i also get it okay?" Leomon still looked confused before nodding and walking back to his place behind the counter, attending to the customer leaving Alpha with the small gigimon. "Anyways after you answer me, i'll do my best to help you get to where u need to go okay?"

"Oh," Eris chirped managing to sound both relieved and a little disappointed that they weren't evil kidnappers she would need to vanquish as she lowered her arm. Shifting back and forth slightly unsure on her feet as she considered the situation.
"Well um...that's...that's good! Cause my name is Eris and my Dad's a big scary knight and one day I'm gonna be a big scary knight too so if you were bad guys you clearly wouldn't have stood a chance!" The little Gigimon chirped out rambling a little as it puffed up with pride, clearly trying to look bigger and fiercer then she actually was. Though the effect was somewhat foiled given that they were only an in-training Digimon and barely came up to Alpha's knee to boot.
"So I uh guess that's good for you?" She added a little unsure having seemingly run out of steam as they continued to eye their surroundings in evident worry and confusion.
"I mean Knights don't really need rescuing, but um...I guess you seem nice. You could maybe be like my squire-to-be seeing as I'm a knight-to-be and uh squires are allowed to help their knights." Eris reasoned inching her way through the supplies in the crate towards Alpha as she propped her little feet up against the edge and peered over the wood at him.
"Last thing I remember I was exploring this old hanger bay at home and got real tired so I decided to take a nap in this crate since it's filled with comfy stuff. Next thing I knew I woke up here." She explained her little tail twitching anxiously.

"Oh your daddy is a gallantmon huh? At least i would assume so since you are a gigimon, yeah i definitely wouldn't wanna face your daddys wrath for something i didn't do." Alpha laughed a bit watching Eris be all proud about her daddy and how strong he was. He gently pet the little gigimon while looking at her as she got up against the edge, looking at Alpha with those big blue eyes, making him smile a bit while trying to sound as reassuring as he could. "Well don't worry, this squire-to-be shall help out a knight-to-be who isn't totally in need of help at all, to safely get home to complete my training and be a fully fledged squire!" Alpha said still smiling while he picked up the little gigimon looking at her.
"Now you must tell this squire-to-be where your home is exactly and we will go on an adventure to get you home safely okay? Also we need to prepare for it properly so i really need you to remember where your home is." Alpha said as he help up the little gigimon with one arm while he started emptying the supply crate slowly. Alpha also heard the leomon coming back to the warehouse. Alpha heard the sounds and turned around to see him before he started explaining everything right away. Leomon scratched his head slightly and nodded before saying. "Hmm... I see, i'll let you take care of her then and i'll gift you another supply crate for free so you have enough supplies to get to where you need to go." Alpha bowed slightly "Thank you very much, i won't forget this favor leomon."

"I guess if you're my Squire then it's ok." Eris murmured turning the idea over in her head before brightening up. "Sides I can teach you all about weapons and armor and knightly stuff in return for helping me." She added seeming cheered by the thought of it being a fairly equal trade as she sniffed at Alpha arms and hands, but didn't fight being lifted. Instead she merely excitedly wriggled in the rookie's grip seemingly brimming with energy now that she'd had her nap.
"My home is Icy Fate Fortress! It's this really big and cool castle on a floating island with this whole town around it that my Uncle Logane is in charge of though technically my Dad and I mostly live a the forge. He makes all the best weapons and armor." Eris rambled out plenty proud of her Father and her families work though she paused blue eyes going wide with sudden realization.
"Oh no! It's a floating island! It moves! How am I gonna find my way back!?" The Little Gigimon cried out with a low distressed whine. The sudden realization she might not see her home or Father again finally settling in and greatly upsetting her as she hiccuped her eyes going watery with unshed tears as she glanced between the silver Dorumon and the Leomon.

Alpha smiled down at Eris and nodded slightly. "Sure i'll be your squire and you can teach all about everything i need to know before i can be a knight. So did your dad teach you all about the weapons and armors?" Alpha looked down at the little gigimon hearing where she lived but sadly didn't ring any bells for someone like Alpha who just lived in the forest for most of his life. So he started thinking about what kind of things he might have heard about the place called Icy Fate.
"Sadly, i do not know that place but i'm sure we can find it somehow if we look for it Eris, so you don't need to worry about that. Maybe go to the central area called Terminus i think? I have heard there is all different kind of digimons as carriers, making it possible to go almost anywhere so...we could travel there and then get to a ride from there to your home. How about it? Ready for a little adventure with your in-training squire? You still do have to teach me all about armors and weapons too during the travel or later maybe so you better be ready for that!" Alpha smiled looking at Eris and petting her gently before turning to Leomon and saying "Do you have a map i could get from you? I'll pay for it of course!"
Leomon laughed a bit before nodding and just throwing a scroll like paper to Alpha "It's a map from my adventuring days, i'll give it to you as my last gift for your safe travelling." Alpha smiled at Leomon for him being so nice and all the things he did.

"Yeah my Dad makes all the weapons and armor for the island! He's really good! He told me all about them though I'm only an apprentice smith." The little Gigimon chirped preening under Alpha's petting and praise until he finally set her down. Leaving the little Mon to thread herself about his ankles nearly bursting with excitement at the prospect of an adventure.
"It'll be just like a quest! I've heard of Terminus before! A lot of the carrier Digimon that go back and forth from Icy Fate go there. I'm sure we can find someone who knows how to get me home there!" Eris chirped bouncing lightly on her little feet.
"Though how do we get there? Is it far?" She questioned peering between the Leomon and the map the Silver Dorumon had been tossed a fleeting thought causing her to pause.
"If you're gonna be my squire though you need a name. Do you have one? Dad says not all Digimon use them..." Eris explained trailing off as she peered up at Alpha expectantly. "I can give you one if you don't." She added, "I'm really good at naming things."

Alpha looked at Eris and nodded softly before saying to her. "Hmm that is cool from your dad though, i wish i did meet my parents or some kind of family. I would like to meet your father and actually learn smithing from him. Do you think i could meet him after i help you get back home?" Alpha kept looking down at Eris and tilted his head slightly before nodding slightly and smirking a bit. "Is this going to be your first quest? Even a knight to be hasn't been to a quest while her squire has? I think we definitely need to change that!" Alpha said laughing slightly while opening the map and checking the actual distance between Rustport town and terminus.
Alpha showed the map to Eris and started explaining about how Rustport was in the outskirts of the map while Terminus in the middle. They would have to go through a place called Valley of Dragons as it was the faster way to get there and maybe something exciting could happen there, to make Eris' first quest memorable and make her happy with the first quest she will have done.
"Oh what do you mean by a name? Is there like different names for squires? Hmm...i'm fine with you giving me a name, i'll trust a knight to be, your amazing naming sense to come up with a name for me. Just please do make sure it isn't lame please." Alpha said laughing a bit nervously.

"I'm sure my Dad would love to meet you. He could probably teach you lots of stuff." Eris assured him as she glanced at the map trying to read it the way Alpha did as she listened patiently to his explanation. The distance didn't seem that far, but with little frame of reference Eris couldn't exactly tell for certain.
"I mean I could give you a special Squire name, but I meant like do you have your own name? Something I could call you? Like how my name is Eris." She explained patiently knowing that some Digimon didn't quite understand the concept of names though she couldn't help that slight blush that crept up her cheeks at the mention of this being her first quest.
"Well um my Dad sends me on quests to get milk and stuff all the time, but I think those are more errands then quests." Eris added scuffing one foot lightly against the ground in mild embarrassment before glancing towards the crate of supplies.
"Wow that's a lot of stuff. Do you think it will all fit into an Infini-store?" She questioned latching onto the change of topic quickly.

Alpha nodded slightly while looking at Eris while scratching his hear slightly. "I...never told you my name, yeah true...well, i named myself Alpha in earlier years during my life as i looked up to Alphamon so much, thinking i could be like them one day. So you can just call me Alpha, nice to meet you Eris for officially." He laughed a bit and stretched a bit while looking at the map once again making sure about the route they were going to use to get to Terminus the fastest way.
He nodded slightly to himself and looked at the at her as she blushed because of her not having done a single quest yet. "Don't worry about it, i have heard that dads are really protective about their daughter, i do not why. Maybe it is part of being responsible for your own child." Alpha scratched his head once before just shaking his head and looking at the supply crate and then at Eris after hearing an unfamiliar word. "Infini-store? What is that? Is it like a new model of a backpack?" Alpha asked tilting his head confused about what Eris was talking about before suddenly remembering him hearing about a device to store things. "Is it a device to store things? I think i have heard about it but never seen one."

"Alpha~" Eris murmured trying out the name as if tasting it upon her tongue before nodding, "It suits you." She chirped beaming up at him.
"It's nice to officially meet you Alpha!" Eris added grinning brightly before motioning him close as she shifted to reveal the small bag strapped to her back leg.
"This is an Infini-store! Its like a backpack, but it's a lot bigger on the inside then it is the outside though you can only put in it what fits through the opening of the bag. However it can carry a ton! And it never gets any heavier! My Dad gave me one for running groceries and errands." Eris explained as she carefully tugged her bag around and opened it. Reaching inside to pull out a canteen, some jerky, tape, her goggles, and a oversized poncho before carefully packing it all back in. The amount of stuff she had pulled out and replaced clearly far more then a normal bag of such a size could carry.
"It's super handy for long journeys and stuff! Though if you don't have one we can just pack as much supplies as we can in mine. I don't mind. Knights are supposed to be prepared and stuff." Eris offered more then glad to be useful to her companion/squire-to-be.

"Thank you Eris and the pleasure is all mine." Alpha said smiling and he stepped closer looking at the small bag as Eris explained how it worked making Alpha look in awe as she pulled out stuff from her infini-store making Alpha scratch his head and look towards the supply crate and humming a bit before looking at Eris. "I'm quite sure it will fit there and that is really interesting, a lot more useful than my huge bothering backpack i need to carry around with its heavy weight pushing me down." Alpha looked at the infini-store she had and scratched his head again a little bit. "Any idea how much one of those cost Eris? I could really use one of those for every adventure i go on...wouldn't need to carry a distasteful big backpack for my supplies and rations."
Alpha looked around a bit and sighed before laughing a bit while he smiled at Eris. "Well ready to pack up and go on an adventure with me partner? I'll try my best to protect you and deliver you safely to home, meet your dad and then maybe we can go on adventures again after that!" Alpha smiled

"I think they cost around two-thousand bits if I remember correct. That is if prices here in Rustport are the same which they should be." The little Gigimon replied after a little thought before quickly bouncing and prancing around Alpha's ankles.
"I'm ready! Let's go! We can grab you an infini-store from Leomon's store maybe and pack up all this stuff and head out!" Eris cried out in her excitement as she skittered towards the box standing up on her hind legs to try to start helping unload it, but only managed to reach half-way up the wooden crate despite her straining.
"I'll do my best to protect you too. Knights look after their Squires you know." She called back as she squired her shoulders and jumped barely managing to catch the edge of the box with her teeth before scrabbling up it to perch on the contents.
"Just you wait Alpha! Someday all the Digimon in the land will know our names!" Eris assured him.

"Hmm okay, i can afford it. Leomon can you prepare one for me? This time i won't let you gift it to me!" Alpha said looking at Leomon before hearing no complaints from Leomon as he went to get a infini-store. He came back a while later giving Alpha his, infini-store while Alpha handed him the bits. He held the small cube looking at it and smiling, playing around with it before opening it and pushing my hand inside the cube as if to check how much space there is before pulling out my hand. "Thank you Leomon." He said before walking to the supply crate and started getting everything inside of it into his infini-store, starting with the supply crate Eris was in before picking up Eris and moving to the one Leomon gifted the duo.
Alpha opened the crate and checked the insides before he started loading it all into his Infini-store before looking at Eris and nodding. "It's not important if they know my name, i just want to fulfill my ideals...anyways you are ready for our little quest right?"
