Player...!
PlayerSorry I'm late! I'm Player. I go by Aiba. Would you happen to be Akkino, by any chance?
Akkino?Oh, hey! Yep, I'm Akkino! This is your first time in EDEN, right?
Akkino?My real name's Nokia Shiramine! Hello! Nice - to - meet - you!
NokiaNOOOOT!!!
Player?!
NokiaYou're late! What were you doing?!
NokiaLeaving me all alone in such a dangerous place. How would you feel if you were in my shoes?
NokiaYou're asking if Blue Box has shown up yet?
NokiaOh, he showed up all right. But what does that even matter?
NokiaLike, can you believe this? He's all, "Oh, I've got to go and find a ghost," and all of a sudden he's running off by himself.
NokiaThat's how he rolls, apparently! 100% full of himself! Thinks he's all that just because he's got good looks or whatever.
NokiaAnd so like, what? The Ghost of the Pale Boy? I've heard the rumors but don't know the details. What does he even plan to do if he finds it?
NokiaI mean, ghosts in cyberspace? That's unscientific! It doesn't even make any sense! Not that I'm scared or noth--
Blue Box?Boo!
NokiaYEEEEEEEEEEEEK!
Blue Box?Whoa, easy. Overreacting a bit there, aren't we?
NokiaOh, jeez, Arata. It's just you. I... I thought you were a ghost.
ArataSheesh. You don't have to act all tough by coming to a place like this if you're chicken, you know.
NokiaHey now! You're the one who ditched me in that
"place like this," Arata, you slimy little no-good--
"place like this," Arata, you slimy little no-good--
ArataOh, just shut your trap.
ArataAnyhow...
PlayerHi, I'm Player, Aiba's player!
ArataWe've never met here before, have we?
ArataI'm Arata Sanada. Nice to meet you and all that.
NokiaHey now, that's no proper introduction!
NokiaYou must've put two and two together by now, but this is the person behind Blue Box!
NokiaHe's not what you imagined, is he? In the chat, he's kind and considerate, like a reliable big-brother figure, right?
NokiaWhen I first met him, I was really weirded out! He's surly, self-absorbed, he's got this weird look in his eye...
NokiaI mean, talk about a waste of good looks, amirite?
ArataLeave the stupidity for later, okay?
ArataSo, while I was waiting for Player, I took a little look around.
ArataI thought that "Mr. Navit" fellow who called us here might be around.
NokiaWhat?! I thought you were looking for a ghost!
ArataWell, I was doing a little of that too.
ArataBut in the end, I found neither.
ArataRather, there wasn't anyone around to be found. You'd think there'd be one or two hackers in an area like Kowloon, no matter how dangerous it is.
Mr. Navit?So very sorry to keep you waiting. I'm Mr. Navit! I've got something for all you good boys and girls who showed up here today!
Mr. Navit?This is the miraculous power to change the world!
NokiaHuh? Wha? What is this?
ArataIt's hacking! We've all been hacked!
Player?!
DigiviceA new program has been installed:
Digimon Capture!
Digimon Capture!
ArataWhoa. This Mr. Navit fellow is no slouch. He broke through my firewall like it was nothing.
NokiaDigimon... Capture?
ArataIt's a hacking tool that's been making the rounds with hackers lately.
ArataYou use this Digimon Capture to run the Digimon program applications.
NokiaWait, so when you say "Digimon," you mean like,
"Digimon" Digimon?!
"Digimon" Digimon?!
ArataYes, those Digimon. The ones you're so interested in.
ArataHmmm.... There's a certain kind of data known as
"Digital Monsters" than you can "capture" by scanning, this thing says.
"Digital Monsters" than you can "capture" by scanning, this thing says.
ArataAh, so "Digimon" IS short for "Digital Monster".
NokiaWhat? Whoa, hey, hang on! Digimon are like, nasty programs that hackers use, right?
NokiaSo then, so then, so then... That means... Have we become hackers?!
ArataWell, I suppose you could put it that way.
ArataWell, it's no big deal. Hackers are nothing out of the ordinary nowadays.
NokiaNo way! Nuh-uh! Hackers are bad news! I am NOT doing this!
NokiaI don't want any part of this! I'm gonna delete this program!
NokiaAw, what? No way, you've got to be kidding me!
NokiaI can't uninstall this thing?!
ArataLeave it be. The program's protected. Who knows what'll happen if you force-delete it.
NokiaEep! Wh-What do you mean?
Player?!
PlayerSo that was Mr. Navit? Could that be the ghost everyone's talking about?
ArataDon't let him get away!
NokiaArata, hold up! Why are we chasing him?
NokiaI... I'm out of here! I am going home, you hear!
NokiaWh-What is this? It wasn't here before. What's it doing here?
NokiaDid some hacker do this too?
NokiaIs... Is this telling us to keep going onward? Are they not letting us go back home?
Player!!!
PlayerArata could be in trouble. Let's go after him! We might find an exit there too. Let's go look.
NokiaNo. I'm not going. I won't.
Player...
