Lucky looked relieved when Ryuji and Yoshihiro bailed him out but still was fidgeting. Ryuji was sure that was just because he was still full of energy. Hopefully that would calm a bit when they got the tickets and sat down to see a movie. Meanwhile Yoshihiro said "No problem, Lucky." Then he turned to Ryuji and asked "Now, Ryuji, shall we head inside and buy those tickets?"
"Oh right. I almost forgot cause we had to catch up with Lucky." Ryuji said with a nervous chuckle as he ran a hand through his messy mop of dark hair before he said "Well then. Let's head in like Yoshihiro said but this time let's stick together." Yeah it was clear the older teen had not gotten the tickets yet as he led the group inside.
When Yoshihiro was asked what was the first movie he watched the disguised Calumon said "To be honest this is the first time I have been in a movie theater. The only movies I've seen have been on the TV at Ryuji and I's place." The odd pair of brothers lived in an apartment complex not far from Ryuji's grandparents. Then again they were basically Yoshihiro's grandparents too as they also were aware of digimon practically from the beginning when Ryuji brought Yoshihiro with him to their grandparents for the first time. The old couple took the whole concept of digimon and an alternate Digital World surprisingly well which made things easier for Yoshihiro to explain.

Lucky started to follow the pair inside the building. His hearts was pounding and it just got worse when he got inside the building. It seemed like this is going to be a new experience for Yoshihiro too, which made the thought of experiencing this with them even better. This meant they could share this.
“Well, this means we’re both our first times,” Lucky said cheerfully, “I expected someone that lived in the Human World for so long to already experienced something like this. How’s living here like?…Actually what’s it like living in with humans in general?”
If humans were half as intriguing as their world the ability to talk to them allow any worries may be even more of an advantage than he thought.Other digimon can interesting enough and he lived with them his whole life! Ryuji didn’t seem very interesting but he just met him. Maybe the more interesting stuff comes up if you live with him long enough.

The trio made their way inside and Yoshihiro looked at Lucky wondering if the Gaomon was just as excited as he was. Sure in his holosuit the Calumon couldn't hear anyone's heart rate due to digimon abilities being much weaker when using these disguises. When using his holosuit his hearing was slightly better than the average human giving him the hearing of a human with sensitive hearing. Lucky's tone took on a certain cheerfulness as the Gaomon asked what it was like living with humans in general. Yoshihiro shrugged as he thought about how to answer the question before he said "I suppose in many ways living with humans is a lot like living with digimon. Well minus the potentially destructive super powers we digimon naturally have. Think about it, Lucky. Humans, like digimon, are capable of many of the same things you or I are capable of at least at the emotional level. Humans are still fascinating to me and I've lived with Ryuji for some time now and we even visit his or should I say our human grandparents. I don't think my adoptive father back in the Digital World has mentioned having any living parents."
Meanwhile Ryuji was looking at the list of movies before he asked "Hey Lucky. Any particular genre you like? It looks like there are several types of movies here to pick from."

“I dunno. Something exciting, but not a preferably not a fantasy,” Lucky said flippantly, “I want to watch a movie about humans doing human things. So maybe a thriller.”
It had thrill in the title, so it must be interesting.
He was still thinking about what the Calumon said. He could kinda see the similarities talking to one now, even when he thought back to humans he pasted on the streets. He sometimes wondered how a human does anything without powers or a Digimon to boss around. But he always sees something in the Human World that reminds him they always find a way. So maybe they are even more mysterious than Digimon, even if they have similar thoughts. He started to examine the movie list with Ryuji.
”Make sure to find something with a cool title, I don’t want to be stuck watching something something boring. I’m pretty sure a good title is the best way to tell if something’s interesting.”

"Hmm. I don't see any thriller movies but there seems to be an older movie from the 90s being shown in one of the rooms. It's not a thriller though but not a fantasy movie." Ryuji said as he looked at the list of movies showing. Apparently this theater showed a mix of older and newer films.
"What movie is it, Ryuji?" Yoshihiro asked sounding both curious and excited at the prospect of maybe seeing something he has never seen before.
"Seems like a movie staring an actor called Jackie chan. The movie is called Rumble in the Bronx."
"Jackie Chan?"
"Yeah I've seen a few of his films when I was younger. Apparently though he isn't a real martial artist he learned Hollywood martial arts to play a martial artist. Not only that when he was younger he used to do his own stunts so basically he was awesome. He is still alive but doesn't do his own stunts anymore for obvious reasons." Ryuji explained.
Yoshihiro looked over at Lucky after looking at the info for the movie before he said "What do you think, Lucky? This says it's a comedy so there is a chance there will be humans interacting in more than just fighting."

Lucky was interested.
By the sound of it, actors doing their own stunts was rare. So a movie where the main actor did his own stunts must been amazing. Plus, he was a material artist, while it is disappointing that he is not a real one, watching a movie about them is good enough.
“Rumble in the Bronx sounds like a good movie. It may be fun watch.”
Though he wondered like a Bronx was? He was about to ask but decided it would be more interesting to find out in the movie. Part of the reason he wants to watch a movie is to learn more about this world. He was interested in the other available movies though. Ryuji seemed to know a lot about them.
“Is there any other movies you watched before? You had to have watched more than one movie on this list. Wait! Let’s talk about this while getting the tickets.”
He definitely didn’t want to miss the movie by accident. Who knows when he would be able to see it again, he didn’t know a thing about movie schedules.
He also didn’t want to ruin Ryuji’s and Yoshihiro’s chance to watch.

Lucky seemed to be interested in the movie so Ryuji said "Well then let's go ahead and get some tickets and maybe some popcorn and soda to enjoy throughout the movie." With that Ryuji signalled the two disguised digimon to follow him as he made his way to get the tickets, popcorn, and drinks. Seeing he was dealing with himself and two digimon he got three large drinks, three large popcorn, and three tickets to the movie.
Meanwhile Yoshihiro looked at Lucky and the Gaomon seemed to have something on his mind but didn't say anything. With that observation the disguised Calumon martial artist said "Hey, Lucky. You seem to have something on your mind. Does it have anything to do with the movie?"
When Lucky asked if there were any other movies they had watched before, Yoshihiro shook his head and said "Not from this list as most of them seem brand new so hearing this theater also has one older movie every now and then is a nice surprise. The only movies I've seen were at Ryuji's apartment on our TV. This is my first trip to a movie theater even though I have lived with Ryuji for some time by now."

Lucky started eyeing the popcorn Ryuji was getting. Now that the young man got it, the rich butter scent was amplified and making him crave popcorn. It’s amazing how quickly he can get so obsessed about something the second it crosses his mind.
When the Calumon addressed him, he swerved back to thinking about movies. He obviously had to go back to watch the newer ones, maybe he could watch a newer one with them if they’re able to go to the movies again. It was lucky he could watch an old movie through, considering it seems that it was rare old movies were shown in the theater. The older films must be more common on TV or at least the one in Ryuji’s apartment.
“What do you normally do with Ryuji? Watch movies all day?” Lucky said jokingly. While Yoshihiro never went to a movie theater before, they must have had some adventures in the Human World. “Do you normally talk to other wild Digimon? You’re definitely used to them.” It still seemed surreal being friends with a human that knows about Digimon though the concept is less foreign to him now that he is friends with one.

Ryuji noticed that Lucky was eyeing the popcorn. Knowing how digimon could get excited merely at the thought of food made the young adult human relieved he was used to being around digimon. Granted most of the time the only digimon he spent time with was Yoshihiro but that was only due to the duo being roomates in an apartment not far from his grandparents place. When Yoshihiro spoke to Lucky the disguised Gaomon seemed to be in thought. It was likely the thoughts on the canine digimon's mind revolved around movies and that was seemingly confirmed when Lucky spoke asking if the duo watched movies all day which caused Yoshihiro to snicker and shake his head and said "No we don't watch movies all day as we are only in the Human World about half the time. One thing we do in both worlds is train together as I have been teaching Ryuji the martial art my adoptive father trained me in."
"Yeah but you make martial arts look easy, Yoshihiro, while I took a year to stop tripping over my own two feet during training." Ryuji said before he and Yoshihiro chuckled. Then when Lucky asked if Ryuji talked to other wild digimon the teen glanced back at Lucky before he answered "Actually I do talk to other wild digimon. Humans and digimon are alike in many ways even though humans don't tend to have super powers." Then Ryuji said "Now that we have some food and drinks why don't we head in and find some seats to sit in. If we sit towards the middle we can watch the movie without hurting our necks like what can happen if one sits in the front row. In a movie theater the middle is the 'just right' zone for optimum comfort and that is why it is best to show up a bit early."

Lucky listened Yoshihiro response, it seemed Yoshihiro was about as passionate about martial arts as he was with boxing if he trained that much. Maybe he could practice with him sometime and show both of them how to box. Martial arts is simply throwing kicks and punches so boxing would be easy to transfer to. Ryuji could benefit from learning more battle skills anyway, it would be useless against Digimon, but it can may help him if he get in a fight with an human. Humans not have powers anywhere so they need anything they can get when it comes to battle. After the movie, he had to ask.
After Ryuji finished talking about the where to sit Lucky responded simply with “Ok”. He was making a mental note of the explanation. He would have assumed that the best place to sit in the front, but he not used to this in the end. He was graceful Ryuji had more knowledge about movies. Though he hoped that eventually he would learn to navigate the Human World himself, but for the time being, Ryuji and Yoshihiro can help him. Plus learning was part of the fun. He followed him to the seats with a bouncy gait, he was ready to watch the movie already. Hopefully everyone else at the movie didn’t decide to try the middle seat already.

After Lucky said okay Ryuji looked around before looking down at the tickets to double check them before indicating with his head the direction the group had to go. Soon he led the group to the slowly filling room and fortunately there were enough seats for the trio towards the middle row. This made sense given that the movie didn't start for a little over thirty minutes from then. Sitting down in one of the seats Ryuji handed one of the drinks and popcorn to Yoshihiro before holding another out toward Lucky as he said "Here, Lucky. Take this popcorn and drink before you sit down. Just don't try to eat it all before the movie starts."
"Speaking of which when does it start, Ryuji?" Yoshihiro asked as he sat down on one side of Ryuji setting his drink in the drink holder of the chair. Ryuji had done the same with the seat he was parked in.
"The movie should start a little more than a half hour from now and by then most of the seats should be full." Ryuji answered
Ryuji then noticed how energetic Lucky was and then asked "Hey Lucky, you must be excited at seeing your first movie in a theater huh? I don't blame you. Trying new things can be quite exciting no matter what age you are. Heck I'm a young adult by human terms and I still find new things exciting from time to time."
"Yes but you tend to be more controlled than me when it comes to being excited." Yoshihiro said with a giggle causing Ryuji to chuckle and shake his head.

Half a hour! Lucky didn’t realize that it would take so long for the movie to start, but he wasn’t too disappointed.
With the strong smell of popcorn whiffing up his nose, he stared at it shortly before eating a handful.
I can’t make any promises that this popcorn is going to survive until the movie starts. He thought while taking another handful. He stared at the black screen while chewing. Before turning to Yoshihiro with hopes of breaking the silence.
“I could show you how to box one day if you want to. You’re already an expert in one fighting technique, or at least know enough to teach a human how to do it. So learning a similar style should be easy.” He was pretty sure boxing and martial arts are similar enough. Taking a quick glare at at Ryuji he said, “It wouldn’t hurt for you to learn some boxing, too. Maybe you could use it with your martial art skills if you ever get into a fight.
”I love boxing. Ever since I first learned about it, loved it.” He remembered the electricity that rushed through him when he won his first boxing match. He may had when a few losses before he managed to do it, but he never let those losses deter him.
“And considering how good you are at material arts, maybe you could teach me too.” He wondered if the Calumon ever felt the same way about martial arts.

Yoshihiro looked over at Ryuji and Lucky before the disguised Calumon said "I don't know about Ryuji but learning how to box does sound like it could be fun. My adopted father was the one who taught me martial arts and he once told me that learning more than one way to fight could come in handy."
"I don't know how you and your dad are able to fight so elegantly as I still haven't gotten the hang of mantis style kung fu yet. However boxing does sound like it would be interesting to learn." Ryuji said.
"Welp you heard Ryuji, Lucky. It seems that you have two friends potentially interested in learning how to box. From what I've seen of boxing it doesn't need one to be nearly as graceful as some forms of martial arts." Yoshihiro said with a soft chuckle.
"Still wild that Yoshihiro himself hails from the Dark Area." Ryuji said as he shook his head.

Lucky had a look of mild surprise, with his ears slightly tilted. "You came from the dark area?" he asked. Before he grabbed and devoured another handful of popcorn. Yoshihiro seemed more related to holy species, which was certainly incompatible with a place like the Dark Area. Maybe it wasn’t that surprising considering he has an adopted dad. Yoshihiro was likely related to Digimon that wasn’t born there.
"What’s it like?" The place was not completely unknown to Lucky; he had been there multiple times before. It was never easy visiting such a gloomy place. But Lucky’s curiosity, like always, won out against any reservations about going there. Considering Yoshihiro used to live there, it would be interesting to hear about it from him.
"Did you ever see the Sea of Blood before?…It's the most terrifyingly awesome thing I ever saw." He had a slightly dreamy glaze over his eyes. It was a difficult journey, mainly because of the apprehension, but that never crossed Lucky’s mind. All he remembered was how astonishing the crimson sea was and its unnerving endlessness.

Yoshihiro wasn't surprised by Lucky being surprised by him being from the Dark Area. After all Yoshihiro was a Calumon which was known to be a holy digimon which was a rare sight in the Dark Area as a whole. "Yeah I get your surprise. After all not many holy digimon like myself are known to grow up in the Dark Area. Heck I don't even know how my egg even ended up there just that my adopted Devimon father found my egg and raised me. As for what it's like, well I grew up in a small quiet village in the Dark Area and the digimon that lived there, though mostly demon like, were nice digimon who just try not to cause any trouble. Sure there is the occasional aggressive digimon we dealt with but, other than that, it was mostly quiet."
"Yeah I've been to that village before and the digimon there were actually a pretty chill bunch." Ryuji added.
"Oh yes I've seen the Sea of Blood before but never went there myself before. Seeing as it has a foreboding presence you can imagine why. I went there with my adopted father before. It was one of the places we occasionally trained though we usually trained just outside our village not far from our home. Still the sight of the occasional ship floated on that blood red sea was an even more impressive sight." Yoshihiro said.
"Guess regions like the Dark Area are a good reason for digimon and humans to follow the saying safety in numbers since some dark digimon there are heard to be more aggressive than in other places. Probably because of how harsh the Dark Area can be in spots." Ryuji added.
