--hat it? Is it working?

I think so-desu! There's a little light there, so...

E-Everything's okay, right?

Shhh! Not now!

U-Um, hello? Can anyone hear me? My name's Tsubomi Hanasaki and... it looks like I am certainly not in Kibogahana anymore. Actually, it looks like a little town of sorts... Can someone tell me where I am and... well, how I can get back? My parents are going to worry silly... and so's Erika. And Itsuki. And Yuri.

...

How do I stop it?

Try this button right here-desu!

[And, as it switches to video, you can see the glasses-wearing, maroon-colored girl fiddling with the device, a strange white and cyan creature and a Lalamon peeking out.]

Oh, no, that's video! Try the other one!

This one?

Y-Yes...

[And the video cuts out.]

Tsubomi?

[audio]

[bag_has_snapped]

...Yuri?! B-But, how? Wasn't she back home?

I think so-desu!

...friend of yours?

Yes... well... a-at least there's someone from home here...

[audio]

[cure_moonlight]

I was back home...?

...I see. Tsubomi, can you tell where you're at from the D-Comm? The device you're talking on?

[audio]

[bag_has_snapped]

Ah, sure! Hold on...

[there's the sound of some fiddling and...] ...what's a Tetha?

Is that why we're so high up?

...what do you mean by that?

[audio]

[cure_moonlight]

Tetha is a floating island. It is perpetually suspended in the sky, Tsubomi.

[Locked]

Think the Great Heart Tree, only stationary. And large enough to house an entire city and small country.

[audio]

[bag_has_snapped]

Ohhh...

[Locked. Thanks, Lalamon.]

...is anyone else we know here?

[locked]

[cure_moonlight]

I'm afraid not.

In fact, you're the first person who's appeared here that I know in... nearly a year...

Ahem.

...um. That is, well, besides Cologne.

[locked]

[bag_has_snapped]

...Cologne?!

Cologne? H-He's here?! B-But, how?! I thought he...!

[locked]

[cure_moonlight]

He, well... did...

When this world's 'god' drew Moonlight into this world, it also drew my spirit, Chypre. Without a body to house it, it seemed that Yggdrasil saw fit to place me in the form of a Digimon, as her partner.

[locked]

[bag_has_snapped]

...so, he's alive... safe and sound...

...that's... I... I-I'm just surprised-desu!

...did I miss something?

Re: [locked]

[cure_moonlight]

...right...

...but, I assume Chypre has retained normal form, so you should still be able to transform into Blossom. That ... will probably prove to be a necessity in this world.

[locked]

[bag_has_snapped]

Uh-huh! I'm the same as I was back home-desu!

...there's something wrong here, isn't it? That's probably why I'm here...

Re: [locked]

[cure_moonlight]

Well, there's a lot. I was just involved in a very large scale battle. This world was nearly destroyed, and there's no telling what would have happened then to all the worlds its tied to...

You see, Tsubomi, this 'Digital World' is connected to the multiverse. Any world imaginable exists out there, somewhere, and Yggdrasil draws people from all of them here to become 'Tamers,' and be bonded to Digimon partners.

Some weeks ago, a great power was released, as was a ferocious monster. It was stronger than anything you or I have seen. Dozens of us fought, and it was... barely destroyed.

...

However, I'm glad to see you here, Tsubomi.

[locked]

[bag_has_snapped]

...what? Y-You faced it with others and... I...

...why wasn't I here sooner?! Yuri, you shouldn't of had to face it without the rest of us! What if something went wrong?! What if you got hurt and...!

[she's trying her best not to cry, Yuri]

Re: [locked]

[cure_moonlight]

It's fine, Tsubomi! Really.

Cologne and I didn't make it out unscathed, but we're fine now. We came when a call went out for reinforcements.

Truth be told, it's the first time I've had to become Moonlight here...

I feel a bit ashamed to say I haven't been as proactive as I probably should have been in this world, so far...

[locked]

[bag_has_snapped]

...then maybe it's time we fixed that, hm?

Re: [locked]

[cure_moonlight]

It's something I've often considered, but...

I am uncertain of how to approach it. We have no Great Heart Tree here to protect, though we have our power.

At the same time, though, many of these larger conflicts... They are things of war. Border and country disputes, matters of race and creed... Or here in Neon City, matters of just flat out crime that are already handled by DATS or the city's heroes...

I... haven't really been able to figure out where in all that a Precure fits in. We are warriors, but we are not soldiers.

[locked]

[bag_has_snapped]

We didn't become Precure to be someone's soldier, you're right. We did it to protect others.

...but at the same time, I don't think we should go looking for trouble. We don't want to draw any unwanted attention...

Perhaps the best thing to do at the moment is to wait. It might be boring, but at least we're not going to be in anyone's sights for getting in someone's way.

Re: [locked]

[cure_moonlight]

Maybe... but then, that's what I've been doing. It thus feels like I'm not doing enough...

...but, it's something we can figure out.

For now, I've been staying in Neon City and attending school. It's been ... fairly normal, besides the obvious fact of being in a different world with Digimon, and people of varying origins and abilities.

[for_kimlasca]

You're having quite the trouble with your D-Comm, aren't you...?

[bag_has_snapped]

Ahahahaha...! Y-Yeah, I'm... not used to this just yet.

[for_kimlasca]

I see. Back in my world, we never had such technology.

[bag_has_snapped]

[Don't try to act too surprised, Tsubomi. Or act surprised at all.]

...Really? I would think everyone would of had something like this by now!

[for_kimlasca]

You'd be surprised. I hadn't heard of such devices until I came here. Time is very different when it comes to different worlds.

[bag_has_snapped]

Wow... [Oh, hey, you learn something new every day!]

...how long did it take you to get used to it, then?

[for_kimlasca]

Mmm, a couple weeks. Then it became like second nature.

[for_kimlasca]

... Then again, I imagine it's not too far ahead of the fontech we have back home...

[its_naughty_time]

[A bear in a blue hat appears on the camera and smiles at you Tsubomi.]

Hello there, little girl! I'm British Bear and you are in the wonderful Digital World now! You have been chosen to help all us save this world from naughty evil people with no manners. Aren't you excited?

Re: [Video]

[bag_has_snapped]

...Digital World?

[Saving the world? Been there, done that. Was actually quite exciting! Just... new place?]

Re: [Video]

[its_naughty_time]

Why yes! This is a magical land of data! And you are our newest heroine!

[sonicheart]

Erm...

Where are you right now? It... Might be good to get you to safety given your age?

[bag_has_snapped]

It's, ah... someplace called Tetha, but...

She thinks you're little-desu!

I thought she said she was fourteen...

Leave me alone!

[sonicheart]

... You're relatively safe, then.

I can... Erm, well, to put it lightly you're in this world for what's likely to be a pretty long haul.

Do you need help getting a place to stay or something?
