"I never understood why some people are so worried about prestige. It makes no sense to me but at least law is something you genuinely became interested in even though your mother pushed you down that path so I guess things worked out." Kima said listening as Kai talked about what she enjoyed about learning about law before she said "I guess I can understand the intrigue that comes from the unknown when searching for said outcome just as I can understand how people can find it intimidating. People are often intimidated by intelligent people and matters they don't understand in general."
"Yeah, kids tend to be blind to the evils of their parents early on and as they get older they become more aware. As for your father, even if you didn't bring about his downfall karma would of eventually caught up with him cause doesn't that happen with all corrupt politicians in the end?" Kima said not knowing what else to say and felt bad that Kai was still dealing with the backlash of problems brought about by her father.

"Eh, debatable, if karma were to catch up with him he'd need something he ripped away from others taken. Like getting seriously injured for life by being treated in a hospital ill equipped to handle his care because he dragged away some funding, or something else." Kai said as she didn't really see her taking down her father as karma, ironic maybe, poetic justice sure, but Karma seemed a far stretch in her mind. "However, it's just life I suppose. Can only deal with the stuff I got." She said as she was not entirely pessimistic regarding her life, if she had to repeat everything, she would without doubt.
However Kai would look ad the dark night sky before she would check her watch, noticing it was starting to get late into the evening. She was not sure where Kimia lived in town, or how far or long it would take for the girl to get home. She had her own rough estimates for herself but she knew she would be fine. "It's getting a bit late. Have you got arrangements for getting home or do you need me to walk you?" Kai asked with concern as she wanted to be sure that Kima was safe in getting home, especially considering she didn't have her Digimon in her Xros Loader and they were wandering about.

"Yikes he sounds more like some kind of gangster than a politician." Kima said with a look of shock at Kai's next words. "Judging by what you said he must of been a monster so maybe it's for the best he is locked away."
Kima then began to wonder how Kai seemed to be so strong despite the lousy hand life gave her. Such thoughts made Kima wonder why she was unable to stand up to the bullies that constantly tormented her at school everyday. "It makes sense someone as strong as yourself ended up a Xros General but I still don't understand why myself of all people was chosen when there had to be so many better choices. Don't get me wrong I enjoy when I'm around my partners but sometimes I think they could of easily had a better general then me lead them." Kima said with a sigh as she finished her ice cream.
Then when Kai spoke up again mentioning how it was getting late Kima looked up at the sky noticing that the other girl was right. She then looked back at Kai and said "Don't worry I can make it back on my own. The subway can get me home easily enough."

"Alright. if you're sure you'll be fine on your own. Allow me to at least walk you to the subway." Kai said not wanting to be too insisting as she did not want to pressure the girl either way and make her feel uncomfortable, but nonetheless was greatly concerned for her safety.
"Also, from what I understand, those chosen by whatever force runs the Digital World most be something on par with a super or even quantum computer, being able to simulate worlds and countless variations of timelines before each and every decision. Clearly it had to know there would be some good coming out of you being an Xros General. Every decision ripples out across the world and can create both direct and indirect change that would be impossible for even the smartest of humans to figure out. There's no point in trying to guess if you were selected for who you were or will be as it could be anything from what you will do as an Xros General to what would happen if you weren't." Kai said as she did believe that there was genuinely no point in trying to pinpoint a purpose at all as the ramifications of predicting long term consequences of choices and decisions could be tiresome.
"You can spend your whole life plotting out the ramifications of dropping one acorn in the forest and never fully come to an answer. This may sound crazy coming from me, but sometimes you can't get answers for questions, and just gotta let things play out and see if one comes."

When Kai offered to at least walk Kima to the subway the girl nodded quietly seeming okay with that. After walking in silence for a bit Kai mentioned that the force that decided on the chosen ones was something that was on par with a super or quantum computer. "I suppose a computer like that being in charge makes sense given the nature of the Digital World and it's inhabitants. Maybe some of the weird things that happen there are just crazy glitches that effect the Digital World randomly." Kima said before she thought of her partners and the animal powers some of them possessed. Was it entirely by chance or did this super computer decide that Takoda, Shillan, and Chaytan were the best ones to receive the powers.
Kima then contemplated Kai's next words before she said "I guess you have a point about letting things play out. I know everything happens for a reason even if that reason in and of itself isn't all that clear at first. Maybe I'll figure out this whole Xros General thing as time goes on."
Soon the pair arrived at the subway station and before Kima made a move to leave she looked at Kai and said "I had a fun time. Thanks Kai. Maybe next time we meet our partners can meet as well." With that the fifteen year old turned and began walking before turning to wave to Kai before she entered the station.

"Yeah, I enjoyed our time together too. Getting together again could be be nice. We'll be in touch." Kai said with a smile, waiting before Kima would be well off on the subway. Once she was off and on her way, Kai would start walking off towards home. After she was far out of earshot from anyone, a voice would come from her purse. "She's screwed isn't she?" Tera said from within the Xros Loader inside Kai's purse. Kai would make sure the coast was clear quickly examining the streets with a quick glance before picking up her Xros Loader.
"She's not a bad person. But there's definitely an imbalance in that army. If they kept holosuits a secret..." Kai said as Tera was starting to get on the same wave length as Kai and see what she was trying to get at. "Then what else could they do, and end up intentionally or unintentionally hurting her. Worst of it is, from what I know, most armies are almost a dozen at their peak." Tera said making Kai start to worry. "We'll need to watch her, see if they can restore balance before things tip too far." She said as she would put away the Xros Loader again as Tera got one last sentence in.
"And if it does? What could we do?" She said only to be met with silence as Kai would continue to walk onwards towards her apartment.

Good job in completing this.
