Two Chaotic Kids Meet; What Could Go Wrong? [ Tetsu & Gryz ]

"...So what should we do?" a boy asked as he laid on his back, looking at the leaf foliage above. The sun created such a nice looking effect on the green sheets, lacing it with lighter lime color. With the cool breeze blowing at it, it would made a nice atmosphere to sleep. But honestly? Tetsu is too worried to even nap right at the moment.

"Brother, you have asked that to me for like ten times today," the one who's carrying him on his back, a Gryzmon named Gryz answered. "And my answer is the same. That's why we're here today, remember? To survey the right, safe spot for them to experience Digital World."

Things happened that few days before, Tetsu's two friends saw Digimon for the first time. Following that, Digivices appeared on their room when they returned home.

...So now he have two newbies to take care of.

"...I dunno what to dooooo..."

"Well like I said, just calm down and chill," Gryz answered. His expression definitely showed how chill he is, considering how it's fixed at = w= face.

"Saying that totally doesn't help, you know?" Tetsu saw a fruit on a tree. He quickly stood on Gryz's back, then grabbed nearby branch. He vaulted himself and swung to another branch, close enough to grab a fruit and landed again on Gryz's back.

"Mmm, sometimes I'm glad that I'm a huge bear... So I won't get my air knocked out everytime you do that."

"Hey, rude! I only did this because I know you're strong enough! Anyway, want some honey citrus?"

"Pop me one," Gryz answered. Tetsu peeled the skin and immediately tossed it to the big bear's mouth. "...Oh, and it's seem you're not the only one being active today. Ahoy there, nice day isn't it?" Gryz greeted pair of human and his Digimon.

How surprising, looks like he's not the only one with a kid partner that could cut his life by significant amount of time everytime they do something reckless. He have seen many human with Digimon partner, but this is the first time he saw someone with such close situation to him.

"Hmmm, looks like you also have it rough."

"Hey, what do you mean 'also', geez!?"

"Well, I mean it exactly as I meant. Sometimes you do that several times that it made my heart almost came out from my throat..."

"So rude..."

Then again, Gryz doesn't think that he should be so worried now. Tetsu is not the kid he was a year ago. He now has understood to not act so impulsively... albeit... albeit his headstrongness is another level now. Seriously, just how much he want to train?

"Name's Gryz... and this boy is my partner and human brother Tetsu. Although he looks like that he's a normal human, don't worry..."

"Hey what do you mean with the last part?" Tetsu pouted.

"Sometimes some Digimon wondering if you're half Digimon or something, brother."

"Well I'm not..."

"Resurgence of history? ...I felt you might skipped a few generations then," Gryz answered, still calm. "...There are actually hundreds if not thousands of humans in Digital World at the moment, that number will spike more and more. Granted, it might because the Digital Portals around the world are closed and only one left in Shibuya exist why the number dwindled, but even then, to my belief, human and Digimons pair aren't rare the slightest. Neither it is rare for a bear and his human to greet someone on their way to survey the area."

Threatening though? "...No, this wouldn't be threatening," Tetsu answered this time. "He's right to have some precaution toward strangers. Granted, being attacked in Digital World by other human is honestly quite rare, but even then it was not unprecedented... thing is, if he want to be threatening, he would evolve to higher stage."

"It's as my partner said." The bear sat on his rump, still looking as calm as always. It felt like he's feeling a bit lazy. "Anyway, to answer your question, we're here just to survey the right place to bring humans to Digital World for the first time... to introduce them here, so to say."

"...Ahh?"

Oh drats. Gryz's head quickly shot toward his partner who looked as if he's ready for some sort of battle. Talking about 'capability' only make Tetsu eager tor prove himself. This kid is wild. Usually he's more levelheaded, but every single time there is a talk about competence or capability it's always flips this kid's switch! The boy cracked his fists and ready to toss away his jacket vest.

"So what do you say about a 1--"No"" Gryz quickly pushed Tetsu's back and gently pin him down. A three meters bear pinning down a child looked dangerous, but looks like it's needed as the boy let out string of words (luckily not expletives) in effect of 'let me go' and 'let me have at 'em'. Gryz meanwhile just exhaled while looking as calm as usual.

"Sorry about him. My partner here have a complex of always trying to prove himself. When he does it's just problem of when he'll stop. He regularly spars with Digimon after all."

"Well he said capability! Let me show him what seniors like us are capable of! LEMME AT 'EM."

"We're still pretty much an advanced partners, not seniors yet, Brother; and no I won't let you fight someone so suddenly like that. And yes, this place looks suitable for that. "

Gryz just sighed. "Yes, yes, firecracker... I guess that's what you can call him. This kiddo is unfortunately... slightly too impulsive? Well, that's not important for now. I assume your questioning time has switched over to my turn... what are you doing here out of curiosity? You talk about humans being rare but there are more humans in Terminus, where the gate to Real World is... Unless somehow you arrived to this world through that dirty portal called Shibuya River?"

A good scenery would indeed give a good impression. "However, at the same time I think it's important to know dangers too," Tetsu quipped. It's seem that he has calmed down somewhat. "Well, when it comes to Sora... errr, my wheelchaired friend, I don't think I want to show her the danger of the world, but with Kazu... my other friend, I think it's important for him to know the danger that come with this world."

"Well there's that too, hmmm... At the same time, just asking some random Kuwagamon if they can scare some kids would absolutely out of question..."

"As much as that'd make their adrenaline pumping, I think that would be way too extreme..."

"Balancing between that is hard, hmmm..." Gryz muttered. "Speaking of which, not knowing about humans and such, how news are you two, by chance?"

So they did come from the river... "I hope that you no longer use that one... the one in the river is kind of... I dunno, meh? I guess that's the word? Not to mention that the exit is actually like... really random. You could end up in Terminus or somewhere as bad as Dark Area really! The one in the train terminal is better!" Tetsu said.

Though the offer is a bit... "...I think I'll pass for the meantime," Tetsu said. "Maybe some other time, when we're more acquainted to one another."

"No offense on you guys, but at the same time I guess we ourselves are not sure to go with the plan or not, if you get what we meant... So to ask someone to do that favor to us but we're not... committed to doing that and ended up doing it halfheartedly will only hurt both you guys and the kids we're meant to teach that lesson to..."

"But if it's about befriending you guys, then of course we'll accept! We're up to befriend new peoples anyway!"

"Ideas? Well, I'm up to discuss for ideas, but I think---"

*Growl*

"Ah that's my stomach over there," Tetsu sheepishly muttered after he was cut by the sound of his own stomach. "How about you two join us for our lunch or something? I think it'll be nice to talk while eating... Gryz?"

"There are some vending machines nearby," the bear remarked "I think we can buy something from it and cook something?"

"That sounds good! Well, then, should we gather some branches for fireplace perhaps? We can talk more while doing that, heh heh~"

For the meantime, Gryz devolved and turned back into Bearmon. He walked away to purchase some food on a vending machine. It's not yet cooked obviously... as of why it's there, well that's how Digital World works he guessed. Meanwhile, Tetsu began his task of collecting branches.

"So, uh... Gar, was it? Got any nice adventures so far?"
