Collab
@MenacingEffect and
@Crimson FlameAs soon as Max arrived, the kid that he told not to use his sketchbook as a weapon had started giving orders. He explained that they were split up from the rest of the group. That much was obvious. There were definitely more than just three of them earlier.
He started giving everyone directions to split up, despite everyone else there being what? In their late teens? Max himself was an adult. Still though, clearly bad things were going down, now wasn't the time to be complaining. Besides, he got paired with the cute boy that this guy who introduced as Himura Kei called Nasaneiru-san. Max would have to find out if he had some kind of nickname or if that even was his real name, because somewhere down the road, he was probably going to mispronunciation Nasaneiru.
“Don't worry about it kid.” Max replied “Stuff is going down, and we have to move! Just so you know, my name is Max. You can call me Max-Sama if you want to. Seven did.” He grinned, and gave Kei a thumbs up gesture. Then, he took the other boy that he had been partnered up with by the wrist. “Come on cutie pie. We’re going!” And he ran in the northern direction. “By the way, I don't remember seeing you with the other kids. Did you get sucked in here just now? Also, he called you Na-sa-neiru-san. Is that your real name? Or is that just Kei’s accent? If it is, do you have a nickname or something? Because I’m probably going mispronunciation that.”
“By the way, I’m Nyaromon!” Cinderella piped up suddenly. “Or Cinderella as Max likes to call me. Hi, how's it goin?”
“Where have you been this whole time?! You’ve been so quiet.”
“Sitting on your shoulder silly. You didn't say anything…”
“Well, obviously. It's hard to miss a small yellow cat thing. I meant why have you been so quiet this whole time?”
“Not much to say I guess…” The small Digimon gave the closest thing one can give to a shrug when you don't have shoulders. “Now come on, you two can walk and talk. Let's go find those humans!”
Everyone scrambling to adapt to new circumstances, as Kei handed out instructions. He didn’t mind. He believed as the older members of the group that they should encourage the younger members to take charge. It will help Kei in the long run and in the future. Or maybe he’s just easygoing and that doesn’t necessarily bother him. The red head dragging him off didn’t really bother him much either, they were in a hurry. If one individual is dead, then so could others.
A yellow cat introduced herself as Cinderella, now that’s intriguing. He wondered how the name came about.
“First I’ll address my name is Nathaniel, though as I told Kei you don’t have to call me Nathaniel every time, Nathan, Niel, Nate, all work fine, it is after all a very versatile name,” he laughs to himself, before continuing, “Cinderella is an interesting name. Where did it come from? What drew you to the name? You know the story of Cinderella?”
It was a fascinating thing to consider that these creatures had individual likes and individual thoughts. He looks to the young chick of his, currently mean mugging a tree.
“You think you can take me, huh,” Pinamon says to the base of a tree, that he admits has a leg like shape. Still he should reign him in before he accidentally hurts himself.
“Please don’t fight the trees,” Nathaniel tells him He’s not actually sure what good that will do, however.
“Nathan huh? That's cool. Pleased to meet cha! I’ll call you Nate. My real name is Maxwell, but I prefer Max. Maxwell is way too fancy to my taste. Haha!” Max replied. “ I picked the name Cinderella because well… let's just say can really relate to her story…” The strawberry blonde boy frowned. “She had a terrible upbringing, but at the end of the day, she was still kind to others. Because of that, the animals helped her out, her fairy godmother helped her out, and she managed to find love in the end. I respect that. Despite everything they did to her, Cinderella could still forgive her stepmother and stepsisters. I don't think I could ever forgive that asshole that calls himself my dad...”
Meanwhile, Cinderella the Nyaromon bounced off her tamer’s shoulder and bounded over to the Pinamon that was challenging a tree to a fight. “You're not going to stand a chance. It’s clearly bigger than you. Why are you interested in fighting it anyway? It's… not even moving…”
Max laughed at the silly behavior of the two tiny Digimon. He put his hand on Nathan’s shoulder. “It's like being a parent, isn't it?”
The group of humans and Digimon kept walking, until Max came across something… unpleasant… First, there was the unpleasant smell, that made Max hold his nose. “Oh god! What is that smell?” As the boy got closer, and saw two bodies on the floor, Max frowned. “Oh no… That better not be what I think it is…” It was hard to deny something that was right in front of your eyes… There were two dead bodies right in front of him. One was of a boy he had seem in the group, but had never spoken to, and the other was Seven… “No… nonononono…” Max fell to his knees, covered his face with his hands, and started bawling. He had just spoken to Seven earlier today and now he's dead. How could this possibly have happened?
Cinderella saw what was happening, and bounced to where her tamer was crying. “Is… everything ok?”
“Does it look ok?!” Max shouted through the tears. “They're dead! Ugh… first my mom, then Robbie, and now this!” He went back to sobbing into his hands.
