ErikaChitose!

ChitoseHey.

ErikaWelcome back!

ErikaYeah! It worked!

ChitoseYou really came through for me.

NurseErika, you promised you'd go back to bed once you'd seen his face.

ErikaYeah... See you later.

ChitoseI get the feeling I've put you all through a lot of trouble?

ChitoseRyuji's gonna kill me when he finds out.

ChitoseWhere is he, by the way?

Player...

ChitoseSo something happened? Tell me what.

ChitoseThat's a lot to take in after just waking up.

ChitoseI developed EDEN Syndrome in Under Zero? Ryuji used a mysterious Digimon against Zaxon?

ChitoseDigimon are appearing in Tokyo because of some plan by Rie Kishibe, and now Ryuji's there running amok with a Digimon?

ChitoseAnd on top of all that, he went after Fei and destroyed Hudie? Hahaha... You know how crazy that sounds?

WormmonYou can't be serious.

ChitoseWhoa?!

WormmonErika seemed much better after seeing your face. She fell asleep in no time.

ChitoseAre you a Wormmon?! The one Erika found in Kowloon?

ChitoseA Digimon in the real world?! Is this really happening?!

WormmonYep. Ryuji... The Digimon... It's all true.

ChitoseCome on. This isn't funny.

ChitoseSo much has happened. I should have been there for her.

WormmonErika was sure you could stop Ryuji. That's why we were so determined to save you.

WormmonWe can't stop him, but she's certain he'll listen to you.

ChitoseI don't think that's very likely.

ChitoseI couldn't get through to him in Under Zero. There's no way he'll listen to me.

WormmonDon't be so negative. You're our only hope.

Chitose...

FeiWow, you look like you've just woken up.

ChitoseFei!

FeiThe doctors are saying it's a miracle. They've never seen anyone cured of EDEN Syndrome.

FeiYuuko will be glad. But how did you do it?

ChitosePlayer told me what Ryuji did, and how you protected Erica.

ChitoseSorry about all this.

FeiYou pretty much died because of our carelessness, so I'd say we're even now.

ChitoseHehe... I never thought I'd hear you say that.

FeiThere's still a problem that needs to be fixed:
Your leader.

FeiI heard that he's still running amok in Tokyo. He must be stopped.

Player...!

FeiOur hackers can't handle him. And I haven't recovered yet.

FeiYou'll have to take care of him by yourselves.

Player...

ChitoseBut I...

FeiIt looks like it's up to you, Player. He's in no state to go anywhere.

WormmonI'm coming too! We'll keep trying to get through to Ryuji until Chitose is better!

ChitoseSorry, but I have to leave Ryuji to you.

ChitoseHas he been running around like that for us all this time?

FeiYeah, he's a good kid. You need to get your act together.

ChitoseHaha... She's right. Ryuji and I both...

Chitose...

ChitoseThis isn't the time to just lie down and sleep.
