Michael smiles at Mandrake and responds, "I would like that quite a bit if it is not too much too ask.". As he responds Euri starts to wiggle around and then climb onto Michael's head with a big grin. Michael grabs Euri and holds him in front of his face so he can look him and tells him firmly, "Do not climb onto my head, got it?". Euri folds his ears back and nods before flattening a bit to escape Michael's grasp and returns to the hood. Michael sighs and takes out his comb again to fix his hair and gathers himself together.
Michael looks at the three before him and smiles awkwardly, "So how about that trip then?". Michael takes out his phone, surprised to see no messages even after putting it on silent and slips it back in his pocket. He then quietly stands and waits for one of the three to lead the way.

Circe watched as Euri began to wiggle around before the little digimon began to climb on his tamer's head much to the human's chagrin. Circe then covered her mouth as she began to sofly giggle at the antics of Euri. Meanwhile after Michael got his partner off of his head he began to work at fixing the now messed up hair.
Once Michael smiled at Mandrake and his family awkwardly he asked about being led to the Digital World. "Let's get going then. Oh and just so you know, once we get to the Digital World your phone will not work." With that Mandrake with Circe turned and began walking down the street with Lothar following soon walking alongside the disguised Wizardmon. The family was heading in the direction of the nearest subway station because that was one of the easiest ways to get to the Digital World since Trailmon came betweent the worlds.

Michael, seeing the others finally leave quickly follows, gaining a neutral look on his face. As they walk around through the city his and even Euri's, who is peaking out from the hood, gaze begin to get pulled from light to light and window to window. This causes Michael to slow slightly before realizing he fell behind and quickly scrambles back up to the rest of the group. As anticipation builds up between the pair they each start releasing the tension in their own ways, Michael taking out his comb and fixing his hair even more, and Euri squirming, inflating and deflating. These acts draw some eyes to them but not many as most are far too busy to worry about some worried young man and a strange creature he carries around.
Michael then speeds up to stay at pace with the others and asks Mandrake, "So what should I expect when we get there?". Though little did he know they were already nearly there and soon to see what he should expect in the first place.

As the group walked Circe, who was still clutching Mandrake's hand, looked around the station warily at the people she didn't know. Occasionally the timid spider digimon would squeeze Mandrake's hand nervously showing how uncomfortable she was in that crowd. At least soon they'd be onboard a Trailmon and heading back to the Digital World. Sure the Human World was fascinating but their were too many people for the anxious child to handle at times. Maybe one day she wouldn't be so timid. Circe then took notice of Michael fixing his hair with his comb. Apparently she wasn't the only one who was tense.
Then when Michael spoke up Mandrake looked at the young man before the disguised Wizardmon said "Other than the possible unfriendly digimon there is also the risk of odd anomalies that one must be alert for." Mandrake spoke with kind and gentle words so as not to possibly alarm the new tamer. Soon the group made their way away from the crowd to where there were multiple Trailmon waiting to be boarded and said "All we have to do from here is board one of these Trailmon to get to the Digital World. You and Euri can choose the one this group boards if you want."

Michael looks around the station, reading the signs and observing the aforementioned Trailmon. Soon one catches his eye, he stares at a sign that reads "The Digital Core". Euri wriggles out of the hood onto the shoulder of the curious tamer and follows his gaze to also rest his eyes upon the sign. Only a few moments pass before he points to the Trailmon leading to this place followed by him asking, "How about we go on that one?".
As they each await an answer they just look around the station at all the various people entering and leaving, Michael specifically wondering how many could be Digimon. Michael only continues to vigorously comb his hair all this time, to the point he has to force himself to stop as to not damage his hair. Putting away the comb he just quietly fidgets and watches even reaching for Euri to pet the small fluff ball.

Michael looked around the station and seemed to be reading signs as well as observing the various Trailmon. When one caught the tamer's attention their was a sign that said "The Digital Core" Euri was now on the shoulder of his tamer before asking about going on that one. Mandrake wondered offhandedly how many Michael thought were digimon. Then when Michael stopped combing his hair and began petting Euri, Mandrake said "Perhaps we should board one of these Trailmon and find a seat."
Lothar was leading the group and Mandrake followed with Circe clinging to him. Once on the Trailmon Lothar sat down with Mandrake sitting next to the Leomon. Circe stuck close to Mandrake like she always did wandering if Michael and Euri would also board as well. Sure Circe was curious of the tamer and digimon pair but was not the type to walk far from her parents.

Michael watches the group enter and follows behind, sitting near them but leaving the space of around the size of a singular person between them. Michael then sighs and just looks at all the others boarding the train before turning to the group he is with. As he turns to them he asks in a very puzzled voice, "Do we not pay at all for this?" his eyes have a slight hint of concern as he awaits for an answer.
Meanwhile Euri just climbs into the open spot and inflates himself to fill the space, giggling and wiggling as he makes himself comfy. This causes some eyes to be drawn over to him though he seems to have zero cares at all about this. The inflating does cause him to bump into both Michael and the three beside them. This makes Michael look at the joyful creatures with agitation but ultimately stays calm.

Circe still was looking at Michael and Euri as if trying to figure them out. Sure she was curious of them and most humans in general but her natural timidness and anxiety around strangers usually initiating the conversation with said strangers. Heck without Mandrake around she didn't normally talk much at all. When Michael asked about whether they were supposed to pay for the ride on Trailmon, Mandrake said "Don't worry, Michael. This ride will be on Lothar and I but I'm sure you and Euri will be able to handle paying for future rides."
"Mandrake is right. I already payed for our tickets before boarding." Lothar said as he and Mandrake watched as Euri climbed into an open spot before inflating his body to fill the space. Circe squeaked in surprise as the young one had not expected Euri to inflate like that and leapt straight up ending up clinging to the ceiling indicating she was startled. Otherwise the rookie level spider digimon seemed alright. Mandrake and Lothar remained where they were knowing their daughter would eventually climb down when she was calmer.

Michael's eyes dart upwards as Circe launches and clings to the ceiling. He stares for a moment and then adjusts his line of sight towards Lothar and Mandrake, well as best he could given the inflated floof ball that is in the way. Michael gently presses down on the top of Euri and then asks the two of them, "So when we get to our destination would you mind leading me to the nearest city in from the station?".
As Michael presses down on Euri, the small Digimon stretches his face outwards and upwards before curling back to look at Circe, smiling at the scared Digimon before him. After watching her for some time he speaks up in a very excited tone, "Hey aren't you excited to be going where we are going? I sure am, I wonder if it is as cloudy there as my home is. Though maybe that doesn't make sense, hmm.".

Michael and Euri were not the only ones who glanced up at Circe as Mandrake and Lothar did the same. Both Mandrake and Lothar were used to Circe's timid behavior down to her sometimes freaking out and leaping for high ground following her spider instincts. Neither Mandrake nor Lothar were off put in the least as it would take time for Circe not to jump or freak out so easily. When Michael, who seemed to be pressing down on Euri's inflated body in order to see around him, asked if they could lead him to the nearest city Mandrake said "That shouldn't be a problem, Michael."
"Seeing as this Trailmon stops at a station not far from at least some towns and at least one city this should not be a problem." Lothar said as he was now gently pushing on Euri as well before he asked "Hey Euri, I know you are excited but do you think it would be possible for you to deflate so there could be more elbow room?" Lothar's voice was patient and gentle so as not to upset anyone especially Euri or Circe.
Speaking of Circe, she glanced down at the excited Euri as he began chatting away. Circe, while still on the ceiling, glanced at Euri oddly before she looked back at the ceiling of the Trailmon before she softly, yet just loud enough to be heard by everyone, said "Y-Yes I am though I don't know about it being cloudy."
"Speaking of which where are you from, Euri?" Mandrake said sounding genuinely curious.

Michael after hearing Mandrake agree is suddenly pushed away by the now further inflating Euri, letting out somewhat frustrated grumbles at the enthusiastic puffball. Meanwhile the now human sized inflated puffball that is Euri giggles before directing his sight towards Lothar as he asks him to deflate, leading Euri to fold his ears back in disappointment and deflate to not quite normal size but nearly normal size. Euri would then look up at Lothar and apologize quietly, "I am sorry Lothar.". Euri this entire time did make sure to pay attention to Circe at the same time as deflating as to not miss a single detail.
Suddenly the question from Mandrake rings through to Euri, causing the small fluffball to sit and contemplate before finally piping up, "Well all I remember is clouds and sometimes suddenly floating below them where I could see the ground, I don't remember a specific place.". With this Michael had decided to scoop up the contemplative partner before him and placing him into his hood, standing up and grabbing one of the hanging bars to keep still as he would decide to speak, "Well it is nice talking about it, but shouldn't we be there anytime soon? I am kind of getting impatient."

Fortunately Lothar's gentle tone convinced the puffed up Euri to deflate at least mostly. The little fluff ball even apologized and Lothar said "It's okay. Young digimon tend to do many things while excited. I was similar except for the ability to inflate that is. I just would be a handful for my parents because I would constantly bounce around not enjoying sitting still for long."
Mandrake chuckled at his fiancé's statement before he said "Good thing you mellowed as you aged then, Old friend, or you could of caused problems at your current size despite you typically being gentle." Lothar chuckled in response to Mandrake's words. Soon as Euri had deflated enough it was more comfortable to sit down. Lothar sat next on the magician's right side leaving a spot for Circe to sit when she climbed down. Speaking of the spider child, Circe made her way down cautiously before sitting down on Mandrake's left side snuggling into the disguised Wizardmon's artificial left arm. However unless Mandrake rolled his sleeve up one would not notice he had a bionic arm.
When Euri mentioned what he remembered Mandrake thought for a moment before he said "Sounds like you don't fully remember where you are from then. If only you remembered a landmark then that could narrow things down." When Michael asked when they would be there, Mandrake answered "Don't worry. We should be in the Digital World soon. Just be patient a little bit longer, Michael."

Michael slouches over as he looks around the car scanning each individual closely. This manages to grab the attention of Euri who would accidentally fall out of the hood. The small puffball would go to scramble back up onto the seats and lay down in Michael's lap and deflate even more looking almost like a half inflated balloon. The sudden feeling of the small deflated creature in Michael's lap would lead him to leaning back in his seat again and looking to the others hoping no one paid any attention to what had happened.
Michael would then finally pipe up yet again, "So since we are almost there, should I know anything important about this place?". As he waits for an answer he takes a moment to look down and see the small Digimon partner of his, which for whatever reason makes him decide to hold Euri in his arms.

Mandrake glanced briefly at Circe noticing that the timid spider child was watching Michael with curious sapphire colored eyes despite being nervous and shy. Then the two of them noticed as Euri toppled out of Michael's hood. The small puffball of a digimon didn't seem hurt as he made his way onto his tamer's lap resembling a half inflated balloon. Circe then somewhat pointed toward Euri before she quietly and shyly asked "H-Hey, Euri, are you okay?" Mandrake looked at his and Lothar's youngest with a smile taking note of how many times she had shown to be so much like himself. This made him wonder if she would of been a timid wreck if he raised her from the start.
When Michael asked if there was anything important he needed to know about where they were going, Lothar leaned forward and said "One thing I can think of is to always try your best to be aware of your surroundings and to be wary of strangers. Granted most digimon are not violent or evil but bear in mind that since digimon can be very powerful they can be dangerous to humans. Even more so if they are cruel by nature. Yet that is why you have Euri to help you out. As the little one gets stronger he'll be able to help fight off the dangerous sorts."
Mandrake then said "Probably the biggest issue you would have to face is managing your money so you and Euri can not only stay fed but also have places to sleep while in cities or towns. When in cities and towns you two can take on jobs to make money so food and lodgings aren't a problem."

Euri would lazily turn his face towards the kindly Circe and quietly say, "Y-yeah, I just am not feeling the best here on this train now for some reason.". Michael overhears this while listening to Mandrake and Lothar causing him to only respond by resting a hand on top of the deflated floof ball. A few moments would pass as all that could be heard were the other passengers and the sound of the train racing across wherever they were, this awkwardness only met with a sigh from Euri.
After the quite long pause Michael would finally speak up again, "You are telling me Euri here can get more powerful? That is kinda hard to believe, no offense little one, I just can't imagine what you could become." . The words seem to stab deeper than intended as the small Euri just sinks much deeper becoming nearly flat, causing Michael to remove his hand out of caution so he does not accidentally crush him.
