"Ropes?"

"Check."

"Knife?"

"Check."

"Map of our target destination?"

"Check. Can we just fucking go already?"

"Dorumon, we need to make sure we have everything ready for an infiltration! You're getting really dull, aren't you?"

"Well, excuse me for being in a fuck-all situation I got thrown in!"

Dorumon and Ranamon were staring dead into each other's eyes, neither willing to budge, when Zei finally met up with them outside of the apartment building. She was dressed in a sleeveless white hooded jacket with a blue plain singlet underneath, black and blue pants and running shoes. She was also wearing short navy gloves, completing her rather sporty attire set. "Is everything set?" she asked the Digital pair.

"Ready to go, Miss Zei!" Ranamon nodded with a light fist pump. "My first infiltration in the Human World! This is going to be so exciting!!"

"Yeah, yeah, don't get too happy. Lots of things are at stake here." Glancing at Zei, Dorumon noticed something a bit off about Zei now. She couldn't put her claw on it, but it was as if she wasn't acting like herself, yet was still herself at the same time. After her exposure to the Digital Hazard, both her and Alphamon could only hope that her sanity wasn't adversely affected. '[i]That said, I don't think I can blame her if her sanity goes on full tilt,[/i]' she thought as the three ladies quietly went on their way. "So this is it, huh? Do you think we can pull this off, Zei?"

"I can't say for sure, but I can only hope that we can. I don't dare think about what could happen if we fail." Zei herself was filled with a strong sense of apprehension. "I just hope that we don't have to encounter Leon, Jordan or Lucas. It will be very difficult for us to explain ourselves if any of them catches us."

"I'm pretty sure they will throw a hissy fit, at the very least," Ranamon chimed in. "Still, with all the preparation we did, we should be able to pull this off. With our skills combined, nothing can stop us!" In a way, Zei found Ranamon's enthusiasm to be something of an encouragement and a welcomed positive vibe to their otherwise dour day, but it didn't do much to ease her mind. She was well aware that even just getting her body to move towards their destination and not towards any hiding place was a great struggle in itself, a struggle she tried to hide from everyone else. Still, she refused to back down now, not after what they had done just for this. 

'[i]I know I'm scared and none of us know what would happen... but there's no going back now.[/i]'
