She didn't think this would happen to her. But it did annnnnnd here she was! Minori Kazasuri was the highly likely person to get into a situation like this: Weaving into such a large crowded area like this, after being partnered with Dyna and Rail after a whole day.... Received some sort of message of going to this train station with her landing her into this current moment leaving with a question... Just, what is so important about the train station?
Minori who was squeezing through a couple of people only to nearly be yanked back by a large dufflebag she carried to find it stuck between the two and she pulls with all her strength. "Come on... Come on!" She said inbetween breaths while pulling it. Bam! it was free, Finally! She heaved a sigh of relief as she kept on going in search of a certain train station that digivice was talking about. Question is, where is it exactly?
This didn't make any sense much to her. "Mio.... I'm Huuungy~choo..."
Oh yeah, She forgotten about her other situation, The two she was now stuck with had gotten bigger or Digivolved as what Dyna put it.... She still didn't get it on them going from computer mouses to cute furry heads with tails and colored ribbons! It was going to be alot harder for her to keep them without any unwanted attention but she was aware that there could be consequences if anyone saw them; But Heck she was glad that the ribbons was there to replace the rings so she can distinguish who is who.
"Rail, Not so loud don't want anyone hearing you." She said to her very hungry partner carefully. "But there should be a small stash of cookies on the right side of you in a hidden pocket, I'll get it for you once we find that train." She advised. A small "Choo!" was heard from the bag in affirmation. So forth she continued on... She had to wonder was Dyna asleep... She didn't hear her ever since she started her trip from her home all the way to the train station, But her guess was that Dyna was asleep.
She stops to look up at the signs that directed to each station within this... Train station. This is gonna take awhile to find that train.

 Elly was on Hotaru duty today. Lately it's been Matsuri doing that but today she appeared to she said she had something to do, said "I'll leave her in your care, trusted lieutenant!" and ran off to kick a giant robot or beat up an alien invasion or whatever it was she did when she was away. Elly liked Matsuri. She was funny, even though she was kind of silly and lame.
Elly was pushing Hotaru along, and Hotaru was already asleep. She slept a lot when getting pushed around. And on train rides. And moving anywhere in general. Actually, Hotaru just slept a lot. But Elly liked Hotaru, too. She said mean things sometimes, but she mostly left Elly alone and didn't force her to talk a whole bunch, which Elly liked.
Miki also came with them, but she was a little ways away, talking to a tourist. The tourist was speaking in English, apparently wanting to see some statue of a dog or something, though personally Elly didn't see the point of wanting to see a dog statue when real dogs were warmer and fluffier. Miki looked like she was having trouble understanding him, which didn't make since because Miki was smarter and older than her. Elly thought Miki was kind of annoying because she always tried to get everyone to go outside and do stuff, but she wasn't a bad person.
They were on their way to the Digital World to meet up with Sakura and the rest over near Rosewood, and were taking the magic train to get there, but she was held up because Miki was still dealing with the tourist. Elly was kind of annoyed, but mainly because she was also a little bit hungry. She wanted Miki to hurry up so she can get snacks over at Sakura's.
Then somebody's big bag grazed the side of Elly's head. Looked like it belonged to some girl that was lost or something. She was talking while looking at her bag, saying something like there were cookies in her right pocket or something. Elly checked the her coat pocket, but only found a pinch of lint and a handful of disappointment.
This girl lied to her about having cookies in her right pocket, and Elly shot the girl an annoyed glare. It definitely couldn't be an misunderstanding on Elly's part, assuming that the girl was talking to Elly instead of the Digimon that Elly was sensing inside the girl's bag, right? Even in her holosuit, Elly could sense the presence of the Digimon nearby, and they would likely be able to sense her as well.

She stared at the signs for the trains before pulling out her Digivice, since others thought it was a toy, and looked at it mashing a couple of buttons executing a command to pull up the message again it reads again:
Head to you're next location, The Shibuya Underground Train.
Minori stared at the device and then at the signs but there was no listing for an Underground Train. Just what was it talking about?? So pocketing the device again with a frustrated sigh, until feeling someone staring daggers at her. Mio shivered seeing it was a small blonde girl glaring at her Just what did she do??? Sweating a lot with too many panic ridden thoughts that even the narrator would be too lazy to list (For their reasons) but one of them was more spoken. "Did she notice them? Or maybe I accidentally bumped into her! Yeah Maybe, Or-" She grips the strands of her hair on the side of her head in frustration." Get a grip Minori!" Minori said likely to herself.
"Mio! There's a Digimon nearby."
"I sense them two, Choo! I sense them too, Choo!"
The would squirm a little from the small voice of both Dyna and Rail snapping her out of her panic and stress of this. "Huh? A digimon nearby?" Minori question. "But quit moving you two, Don't want to get us caught!" She hissed quietly to the bag. This earned the bag to stop shuffling around, with Mio hoping not one did notice; Focusing around Mio would gaze around for the Digimon that the twins had sense, She didn't know what other Digimon looked like but they could look like the twins she had which she'd keep an eye out for.
Mio felt more stares in her direction and noticed a couple of passersby staring at her or mostly at her large duffle bag which she instinctively grabbed sheepishly, but back to her situation of finding that train... It couldn't hurt to ask someone. That started with the blonde-haired girl, Who may or may not know the area of finding such a train.
"Hey, Excuse me, But do you know where an underground train would be at?"
Minori really hoped she didn't sound crazy or farfetched in what she was asking about.

So like, Elly wasn't really sure about all this stuff, but this girl kept looking around kinda nervous, like she was lost or something. The girl noticed Elly's stare, and who could blame this girl with the large duffel bag, as the small 7-year-old was indeed someone to be feared. The girl seemed to be messing with her bag and the Digimon inside a whole bunch, and Elly realized she had never been on the inside of a bag before. She began to wonder what it would be like, but then the girl interrupted her thoughts to ask her something.
Elly tilted her head in confusion. Weren't all the trains here in Shibuya basically technically underground? It wasn't making a whole lot of sense. Well, she was probably talking about the train that went to the Digital World, but Sakura says it's not a good idea to just assume what people are saying. And Matsuri says that Elly shouldn't be talking to strangers since she's so adorable she'll probably get kidnapped. Unless they offered her food first, of course, because that's how you know they can be trusted!
But this girl with the large bag wasn't offering her any food, so the only logical conclusion the strange holosuited Shoutmon could think up was that this human girl was just kind of dumb. Either that or she was a kidnapper, since she did have two other Digimon stuffed in her bag!
Elly didn't want to get kidnapped, though, so she needed to get some food from this girl, first. So she held out her hand, and in a soft, nervous voice, she said one word.
"C-cookie..."

"..."
"Cookie?"
Minori's surprised at the small blonde girl asking for a cookie, and she could guess that the girl overheard her over for some cookies, as she rummaged through the bag- Careful not to hit either small Digimon on accident. There were small muffled complaints from both tiny parties of her hand accidentally bumping into them. Well she finally grabbed the tiny bag of cookies, and she quickly gave Dyna and Rail their own cookie before pulling the bag out fully. They're butterscotch cookies, She offered one to the small girl with a smile.
"Here you go."
Minori noted the girl was possibly by her tone of voice earlier and made small notes to herself of going easy in not scaring the girl, She was also doubting this on finding a underground train. She knows subways run underground, but that could help but with her thinking she was frustrated. In games, They would leave clues and trail markers on whatever quest, mission or whatever to find em! They're easy to figure out, but how in real life finding a simple... unspecifized train was harder annoyingly enough... But she would not give up, not yet! Besides she needs to know why in the heck was she supposed to find a train like that? Furthermore what did it have to do with Dyna and Rail and herself?
Hang on- wait a minute! Mio just now realized that the little girl looked like she was not old enough to be out by herself, Minori's expression morphed into a very... very concerned one at that realization. This girl could be kidnapped or something, very much much worse. Thus her big sister instincts kicked in with her confronting the smaller girl with a question by kneeling to her height. "Hey, but why are you out here? Where's your parents." Mio asked, making eye contact with the girl. "You're not old enough to be out here."
Mio is worried for the small girl's safety and would help her find her parents. Meanwhile within the bag, both digimon was getting a little to restless from being cooped up in the bag for too long.

Despite Elly's initial hesitation, she snatched the cookie out of Minori's hand almost immediately, nodding and immediately quickly nibbling away at the butterscotch cookie as if she were a squirrel. Butterscotch was indeed one of the best cookies, so Minori's tribute was indeed worthy of Elly's attention.
Then she crouched down and got close to Elly, which made her want to get away as fast as possible. But Elly wasn't a girl with such loose morals that she would just take another woman's cookie and then bounce. Well, maybe if it were a worse-tasting cookie she would, but that was besides the point! So instead she settled for breaking eye contact almost immediately.
The girl started asking her like, a million questions, or at least, that's what it felt like. And answering her sounded like a pain and Elly didn't want to say anything. She remained silent for a good few seconds before giving in pointing towards a figure right next to her, a girl around Minori's age seated in a wheelchair, currently sound asleep.
"Hotaru," Elly pointed out, as if that answered all of Minori's questions.

Uh- that was quick, THAT KID snatched the cookie out of her hands stunning this teenager like it was nothing and ate it like a vacuum cleaner. That was very quick and left Minori stunned, But she quickly shook that away.
An Awkward amount of silence was between them when Mio was done, Guess she didn't have any more questions until the little girl pointed to an asleep paraplegic girl, Guess this was her sister? Also Mio didn't notice her earlier, Blame her for being distracted. She looked at The girl and then at the girl in the wheelchair, She said her name was Hotaru and guessed she was the one to her answer. Heck, she didn't know.
Dyna and Rail were getting a little restless in her bag as they were squirming around. "Rail move! You're on my tail!" Dyna angrily whispered. "I'm sorry, choo!" Rail whispers back. Mio took that as a sign to hurry up as both were getting restless and noting that as she had the same experience with babysitting her cousin one time before she moved here.
So she gently approached Hotaru and somewhat gently nudged her as soft as she could but hard enough to try and wake here. "Uhh, Wake up, Um Miss......" She trailed off not knowing what else to say. "I sorta need help." She asked.

 Hotaru was awakened by someone prodding her. She opened her eyes, filled with raw, unadulterated malice towards the future cadaver that had foolishly disturbed her slumber...wait, it was some stranger. Elly was off to the side, gazing back and forth between the girl and Hotaru, looking as intense as always. She probably got overwhelmed by the conversation or something. Hotaru blinked the hatred in her eyes away and gently patted Elly on the head.
"She didn't run over your toe with my chair on purpose," Hotaru immediately mumbled as if she had said the same thing a thousand times before, barely acknowledging Minori's words. Then what the stranger said finally caught up to the freshly awake Hotaru and she blinked. "Oh. You need help. Swell."
Hotaru resisted the urge to roll her eyes. Really, out of all the people around them, this girl had to have chose the most dysfunctional people in there. That in itself was impressive. "It's Hotaru. Hurry up and..." Nope. Gotta be a less terrible role model for Elly's sake. "I mean, please tell me what I can do to help."

Okay, Minori didn't know whether or not to be a bit afraid of the sheer malice radiating off the wheelchair-bound girl as she felt a shiver up her spine. Why, just why with her luck? She didn't mean to wake up someone who looked normal to radiate some terror like that one character(s) from Black Rock Shooter! Ahem- Getting off topic here, Minori noticed the small girl looking back and forth like she was lost; Good grief, the wheelchair-bound girl seemed to comfort the younger girl and well mumble something that this Otaku couldn't quite hear until saying something about her needing help, Phew!
This redhead immediately shook her head in a quick yes, like the stupid person she is, sometimes. She introduced herself as Hotaru and was seemingly gonna say something else but immediately changed it because that little girl was around here. "I'm looking for an underground train, Can you help me find it?" She asked with a pleading look.
"I'm sorry for waking you up, Hotaru-san" She bowed respectfully and apologetically. Truly she was sorry for bothering Hotaru to the point, Minori forgot to introduce herself, Seriously Mio?

"No, don't mind me, my face always looks like this," Hotaru assured the apologetic girl in front of her. She thought about putting on her best, most polite smile, but... nope. She just woke up and friendliness.exe hadn't finished booted up yet. So instead she just continued to glare at the girl with a deadpan expression.
She seemed lost, and Hotaru nodded before falling silent. "Like... if you need directions, you actually need to tell me where you plan on going. This is Shibuya... you'll need to be a little more specific than 'underground train'. There's... kind of a few of those."
Thankfully, Elly was there to speed things along! She leaned over to Hotaru's ear, pointing towards Minori's bag before quietly stating, "Digimon." Hotaru nodded again, and let out a sigh. She felt like she just went through something similar just the other day. Just how many Digital World-newbies was she gonna encounter these days?
"Oh, that underground train," She noted. She glanced at the girl, up and down. "I can help you, but..." This girl was clearly a newbie, and if she guided her to the Digital World, then she'd have to accompany her for a little bit to make sure she didn't get instantly flattened in case, instead of a paraplegic girl with a chronic case of R.B.F., she ticked off a giant fire-breathing dinosaur or something. Otherwise it wouldn't sit quite right with her. And honestly, even though she really didn't have any plans today, that all that sounded like kind of a pain. Plus, she couldn't quite put her finger on it, but there was just something about this girl that made Hotaru feel like they wouldn't gel.
But once again, Elly to the rescue. "Have to help. She's a nice person," She softly insisted. "She gave me a cookie. And Matsuri said that nice people help others, so when a nice person needs help you have to help them. Unless they're Sakura." Elly started to slump a little in exhaustion. Despite speaking softly, she acted as if she had just screamed those words.
Hotaru frowned just a bit in thought. That seemed a little too profound for Matsuri. She was probably quoting something she saw on TV or something. Even so, it was obvious Elly wanted to help them. So, Hotaru gave Minori a level look.
"This is kind of a hail mary, but your name wouldn't happen to be Sakura, would it?"
