António sat down at the bench. It had been a tiring day and he was very confused. His friend had just been subject of a scientifical experiment and he had turned into some kind of floating eye. The man that turned into that ran away once he saw the result of the experiment and the closing door managed to scare the floating eye and have shoot lasers at the entire lab until a good part of it was destroyed and he calmed down. After that his friend transformed again, this time into a sort of mix between a rabbit and a porcupine, and he was now in his bag. António decided it was time to take him out of there. Opening his bag, he carefully removed the thing his best friend had become and placed by his side. His friend, Henrique, seemed now incapable of speaking more than a few pieces of baby-talk, or so he supposed. And that was an improvement over how it began, unable to do anything more than look around and well getting scared enought to destroy a lab with laser beams. "WaWa" Henrique said in a childish voice "I wish I knew what that means buddy." António replied with a sad look. "WaWa" Henrique insisted. "I told you arledy, I haven`t got a clue what WaWa means." Henrique jumped of the bench and ran towards a nearby drinking fountain, bashing his haid against it. "Drinking Fountain? Is that what WaWa means?" António asked. Henrique shook his head. "Perhaps Water? You want water?" This time Henrique nodded in agreement. António stood and lifted his friend up to let him drink from the drinking fountain. "I think we both have a lot to learn. In your case re-learn. I wish there was somebody like us out there, or even better, somebody that could help us dealing with this.

There where only a couple of reasons Kirsten risked returning to the human world at all now, and mainly they where pure luxuries. She wasn’t willing to end up being caught out by that weird organisation which had spooked her so much previously. She hadn’t returned home since that time, aside from to grab as many essentials as she could and do her best to vanish. It was for these reasons that her appearance was a little more tattered than she would prefer. Hair wasn’t perfectly straightened out, and all her clothes where a little bit dirty. She was carrying Zarph around in her bag, the small digimon sleeping, as he did most of the time.
She was in the park for the simple reason of relaxing. The digital world was significantly more dangerous than the human world is, on the basis that large firebreathing dinosaurs probably weren’t about to try and eat her in the human world. Most of the time.
”Kirsten” A muffled noise came from her backpack, Zarph having managed to wake up.
”There’s another digimon around here, I smell him, we should go.” The small and cowardly digimon fairly obviously being as cautious as he could be.
Kirsten looked up and around, trying to spot whatever Zarph had picked up. Despite being spooked before, as far as she had seen, anyone who would be following her seemed more likely to take direct action, as opposed to stalking her. She spotted the first thing which struck her as odd, a boy and a fairly weird looking animal. This was probably it.
She began to meander toward the pair, trying not to look too suspicious, or like she had an agenda. It was mainly curiosity driving her, wanting to identify and check whether Zarph was correct, and then identify just what she was dealing with.

After Henrique had finished drinking, António brought him back to the bench. The small creature was extremly energetic and António didn`t doubt that if he let him, he would just jump off the bench and run again. In a way it was calming. At least his friend didn`t remember who he used to be, so he couldn`t be pissed or sad about what had happened. Only António could. António looked up. He could see the sun would not take too long to set. "Lady." Henrique suddenly said "What?" António asked, caught by suprisse "Lady" Henrique repeated, pointing with his head to something behind António. He turned too, and saw a girl who seemed to be around his age walking towards them with an obviously forced look on her face. António quickly shoved Henrique back into his bag, trying to conceal it from the girl. Then he turned to her again. "Hi." He simply said to break the ice. He needed to make sure of what the girl wanted. Perhaps he was being a bit paranoid, but they trusted someone they shouldn`t before and now Henrique was a rabbit-porcupine thing that couldn`t even talk properly AND the person also stole the keys to their hotel room, then stole everything inside. It was not being that much of a nice day and so he needed to have a bit of distrust.

She certainly hadn’t done particularly well at hiding her intentions, which was quite obvious a couple of seconds after Kirsten had begun her meander towards the boy. This was demonstrated pretty immediately by the fact that the boy had picked up on what she was doing pretty quickly, muttering a single ‘hi’ as she approached.
”Oh, hi.” She shuffled her feet around uncomfortably, a little bit taken aback already, and trying to figure out a better angle to approach this.
”It’s a nice day, isn’t it?” She was just trying to get some kind conversation going, trying to figure out how progress towards figuring out where the other digimon was. Zarph was generally correct in this regard, unlike a lot of things. He’d even learned how to tell between the average housecat and a digimon, which had taken some persuading.
”So….you here on your own?” She asked, again just trying to force out some dialogue. She didn’t even really have a plan on what to do if she did identify where the digimon was, just probably gauge the threat level, and run away, and take her train back to the digital world. It was probably what she would end up doing, retreat back to the other world until she felt she had some kind of indication that she was safe enough.

"Yeah, it is..." António replied to the girls cliché line, putting his arm over his bag to make sure he covered it. The girl was suspicious, but also seemed nervous, because of throwing lines like that, stuff that everyone heard in movies everywhere. "Who me? Yeah, well I guess I can say I am Aaaaaah!" António had just hurt himself in one of Henrique`s spines that had incindently been left out when he was closing the bag in a hurry. "Boo-boo? Sowy." Henrique said from inside the bag, leading António into looking right at the girl. Did she hear that? What would she think of it? Would she cal the police or something, thinking he kidnapped someone, or something of the sort? "Sorry it`s a toy. You see I am here by invitation and I wanted to by something for my sister, so I bought her one of those plushing toys from a nearby store..." he lied, trying to cover up that Henrique had just spoken. "It keeps saying weird stuff. Sometimes I wonder if making stuff here ain`t the same as making it in China." He smiled to try to be more convencing. If only Henrique could think before saying stuff, but at this point he was kinda blocked from thinking.

The story pretty much confirmed Zarphs suspicions, and made Kirsten fairly certain she was on the right track. Far more comforting was the bits she was picking up of the story. This wasn’t someone who knew too much information about anything regarding digimon, or things about them. All she needed to do now was just kick open the metaphorical door, and play out her hand.
”Toys, oh you mean like this.” She swung her backpack round her shoulder, dragging Zarph out before the poor digimon had enough time to react properly. ”Huh, hey!” A couple of words where shouted out before he was successfully dragged out, and clutched in both of Kirsten’s hands, held out for the boy to see. She continued to look at the boy, waiting for him to react, not sure just what he’d do.
”My name’s Kirsten by the way.” She introduced herself.
”And this is Zarph, I imagine your friend might quite like to meet him.” This was essentially her play. She was sure enough the boy would have to react to this, and reveal whatever Zarph had managed to sniff out previously. From there she wasn’t so sure, she was just going to have to react on the fly, and see how things would progress.

António was completly caught by suprise by the the girls response to his excuse. She simply took out of her bag a creature as strange as Henrique.
"Wow!" Antonio almost shouted "I did not see that coming. My name is António and this is Henrique."
He reached to his bag, taking out his friend. He honestly couldn't think of any other response to the girl, but if she knew knew anything about what Henrique had turned into, he had to take the chance. He just hopped the girl wasn't working fir the scientist or something like that. He put Henrique on the ground, afraid to hurt himself again in his spikes.
"Pretty Lady! Pretty Lady! Fwiends!" Henrique happily chanted, jumping around in circles.
Antonio looked to Kirsten and lifted his shoulders.
"Well, nice to meet you two. Don't you wanna sit down. By the way, I was wandering if you could answer a question mine..." António asked. He hoped she could. Afterall, she Immediatly knew he had Henrique with him, so maybe she understood these creatures or even better how to reverse what had been done to him. In the meantime, he was sure Henrique would love to something of his kind to play with.

Well…that had worked. Relief wasn’t exactly how Kirsten would describe it, but based on the fact that Zarph had managed to be correct about what he’d sensed, she was fairly happy. At least this boy didn’t register that highly on her threat level, and Zarph, for all his cowardly nature, hadn’t panicked yet, or tried to run off, or just made a scene in general. He had introduced himself as Antonio by now, and the digimon was identified by the name Henrique. Being in one of the younger stages, Antonio seemed to be fairly energetic, proven by the speed at which he was bouncing around. It was the same kind of energy Zarph had when he wasn’t asleep.
”Aww.” The little guy was cute, with his bouncing, and youngish mannerisms when it came to having a grasp of language.
”Sure, I guess I can try.” She sat down on the nearby bench, popping Zarph onto her lap as she did so. She didn’t know whether or not she’d actually be that helpful when it came round to answering questions – her knowledge was a little bit limited – but she’d give it her best shot. Zarph had somewhat woken up a little, and was staring intently at Henrique, watching the other digimon for any signs of danger.

Antonio was excited. Maybe now there was a chance he would get some help. "You see, I'm not sure about Zarph, but Henrique didn't start like this...he ueses to be human before that scientist turned him into...this. To be honest, I don't even know what it is, but somehow the transformation also got him acting like this. And it is an improvement over how it began. So...do you know we can fix this? If you can't could you at least explain what my friend turned into this and why that scientist fled the moment he realized what happened?" Antonio asked, trying to sum it all up.
While he was talking Henrique approached the other creature. First he was simply bouncing, but upon realizing the other one was simply staring at him, Henrique started sniffing his way as he approached with care.
"You Fwiend of I? Wanna Pway?" Henrique asked, with a smile.

A crack in the air, and then a sort of tearing sound, as a hole was forcefully ripped through the air, not that anyone really noticed, even though it was cutting off part of the sidewalk. A sort of clicking sound could be heard through the portal, before someone emerged. The clicking was revealed to be heels, specifically belonging to a girl with red skin, her arms crossed. Light green hair reached her mid back, and her eyes were two toned green and yellow. Anywhere else it would be automatically assumed she wasn't human, but here she was just another cosplayer. The hole seemed to sew itself shut behind her.She walked along the sidewalk, her heels clicking on each step, walking past oblivious people. She wasn't human, in reality. Not even close. She was a Digimon, a Dracmon to be exact.
"Oh my Omegamon. I think I smell a Digimon. Too bad I'm claiming this turf." The girl said, looking around the park. She wasn't just any Digimon however, she was a Valley Girl.She walked in the direction the smell was coming from. After walking for about a minute, she saw a bench, at first it seemed normal. Then she noticed a certain something. A Digimon. She stopped for a second. before smirking. Tamers. She walked up to the bench, keeping her arms crossed.
"So, you two are, like, Tamers? How cute! But it seems like one of you is new at the whole Digimon thing. The girl said, arching her back slightly, and placing a hand on her forehead. Her name was Ashley, and for now, she'd at least try to be civil.

”Oh.” Kirsten trailed off, really lacking any answer. She simply didn’t have any information which would be that useful in this sort of situation. ”I dunno, Zarph hatched out of an egg.” She was slightly more able to answer the second section of Antonio’s questions. ”But he’s a digimon now, a kind of magical creature, they’ve got this whole world as well.” That was basically the easiest way to explain it she could come up with. She didn’t particularly want to go into the whole fighting stuff, since she tried to shy away from letting Zarph get into many confrontations herself, it was fortunate on this regard that he was fairly cowardly and shy.
”Huh? Wah.” Zarph shuffled backwards on Kirstens lap uncomfortably, trying and failing to hide himself.
Crack.
Kirsten’s attention was diverted towards the new arrival, a red skinned creature, which she fairly quickly recognised as not human. She hands slid tighter around Zarph, the small creature having backed as far into her chest as he could possibly.
”What do you want?” She asked, fairly aggressively. There was something about the newcomer she didn’t particularly like, something which ticked her off the wrong way. She’d quite like either it or her to be able to leave quite soon.

Antonio was really disappointed for Kirsten not having the answers he seeker, but at least now he knew what Henrique was, even if only very vaguely: A digimon.
"Well I kinda noticed they were "magical" when Henrique kinda blew up a lab by shooting laser when he was a gloating eye." He commented with a smile. At least now he had someone to talk about this things...
Henrique was confused about why the other digimon had got away from him. All he wanted was to play. He looked at him with sad, puppy-like eyes, trying to persuade him into playing.
Then someone new came. Antonio had no idea who it might be, but seeing Kirten's digimon going into her lap and whoever it was having treat them that way, he called Henrique to him and he quickly obeyed.
"What is a "tamer"?" Antonio asked, feeling a bit stupid.

"A Tamer is someone who raises a Digimon. I've only ever met Spirit Wielders, so I can't tell you much more, other than you two are gonna be BFFs for a while." Ashley said. In-Trainings at the most, no real point in attacking them.
"What I want? A few pointers on what to do in the human world. It is, like, my first time here." Ashley said, looking at the human girl who had seen right through her holosuit. 100% more observant than most of these humans.
"The usual, how to act, where to live, where to find food..." Ashley began, Holding her hands together in front of her face with her eyes closed.
"Where to find materials for making clothes~" Ashley finished, with a flourish.
"For I, am the great ASHLEY! Greatest clothes designer in the Digital World!" Ashley said, throwing her arms in the air.
"So, like, the pointers?" Ashley asked, after clearing her throat. Maybe that was a bit too much info, but you could never have enough people who knew your name. The could say a few good words someday, maybe get her an important job. Or at least convince people not to run away screaming at the mere sight of her until she rules the fashion world.

Other questions which Antonio had produced had been answered by the newcomer, the red humanoid creature, which had pronounced some gibberish about being a fashion designed or some other nonsense. Kirsten eyed the creature carefully, more convinced now that it was just a little bit delusional, than actually dangerous on any particular level. And given this lack of being any real danger at the minute, she was more inclined to try and just let the digimon pass on, and go off wherever it planned on travelling to.
”I imagine you would have to look around the city someplace. I’m not exactly sure where, but I’m sure you would find somewhere.” She didn’t really know what would happen when Ashley did successfully find somewhere, chances are that the digimon didn’t have much/any money, and would probably resort to theft. That wasn’t her problem however, and would be something that whatever poor shop assistant was on at that moment would have to deal with it.
She looked over to Antonio, just to see how he was reacting to this newcomer. He’d essentially done what she’d done, kept Henrique closer than previously. That was probably a good choice. Ashley seemed to be harmless, but Kirsten was aware enough that this had the potential to change at pretty much any moment.

António looked at the newcomer with compassion. He was quite lost too, and even he wasn`t in what according to Kirten was a completly new world for the stranger. " I guess there should be no problem giving you some directions, but are you even aware of city vocabulary? If you are, I think you should try go to the western Shibuya. I heard it`s the richest part of the city, so there shouldn`t be any problem with finding everything you need." he replied to Ahsley, but then he looked at Henrique "But wait, so far you`re the first of these "digimon" I see that actually wears clothes. I mean, I know Henrique was born like, a few hours ago, but I don`t really believe he would wear clothes anymore, given he looks more like na animal than anything. And even if did wear clothes, it would more likely be a diaper." "Uh-oh?" Henrique asked, part in confusion, part in sadness "I whish I knew what that even means. By the way any of you too have any idea of why he talks like this?" He smiled. A moment ago he and Henrique were alone trying to face a situation they couldn`t hope to even understand, and now they sorrounded by people who were being so help...kind to them. "Yum-yum." Henrique suddenly said "What?" António asked Henrique got to his bag and took some bread out. "Oh, that, ok, eat what you want. Shouldn`t be much anyway."
