Could this really be a virtual reality? Everything looked so real. When she held her hands up in front of her, clenched the fingers, spread them back out, it all felt so real. Like it was her actual hand. From the corner of her eye, Ren saw a fuzzy orange digimon, the flames catching her attention quickly.

"Oh!" She moved over towards the digimon, and with a bright smile dropped down to her knees a short distance away. Her partner was going to be her first new friend, the first being she's ever spoken to inside this world and in excitement she scooted closer. She extended her hand to the digimon. "Hello there. You're my partner right? My name is Yu-- I'm Ren."

"It's a pleasure to meet you Ren. I'm Coronamon." The digimon returned her smile and when he spoke, he sounded calm, and it almost looked confused at her hand until Ren reached out and took one of his paws and shook it. Even the fur felt real, and warm to the touch.

"Coronamon? That's the type of digimon you are right? Would you like to be called something else?" Ren was already thinking of the types of names she could give her fuzzy new friend. Addressing her partner by his species name seemed really impersonal and almost rude to Ren.

"Something else?"

"Mhm! Like... a nickname." Ren nodded and then, thinking of the perfect name, she smiled and stood up resting her hands on her hips. "I got it! Can I call you Huo?"

"If that's what you choose, I would be honored." Coronamon, now Huo nodded regally. Ren grinned at the lion-like digimon and glanced around. She was in Asuka City, the heart of the Server. It was where everyone started when they started Digimon Online.

"Alright then Huo, Let's get going!" This was the start of her adventure. She had the entire world of Digimon Online at her feet to explore. There were new faces and people everywhere. In her excitement, Ren twirled around, trying to take in everything at once. There were so many options, so many things she could do, so many people they could meet first. Ren stopped twirling, realizing she had no clue what they should do first and sheepishly she looked down at Huo and smiled, "Heh. Can you guess I'm a little excited? So... What should we do first Huo?"

“Come on boss, Leomon is wait for us at the gym”, Leonis wined.

Yawning as he walked out of Asuka city’s inn, “I didn’t know you were a morning person… er digimon, Leonis”

Shadking looked towards the sun then quickly looked away; it never stopped amazing him how real this world was even the sun hurt when you looked at it. Then Shadking noticed a girl twirling and looking around the city then she stopped with a look that said ‘I’m not sure what to do’ which reminded him of when he first got to DO. Like him then these girl was new to the game so was he was going to show her around.

Shad walked up to the girl with Leonis on his head, “Excuses me miss but are you by any change new to the game because if you are I would be honored to help you around the city if you like”.

At the sound of another voice, the girl's eyes widened and Ren turned around to find herself face to face with another player. A feline-like digimon rested onhis head, and both were watching her.. "O-Oh," she stumbled over her words, embarrassed that the other player had probably witnessed her antics. Sheepishly she smiled. "Hey there!"

Huo stepped closer to her, and Ren tucked an arm behind her back, dusting it off before she nodded. "Yeah, you could say I'm a brand new player. This is my first time logging in actually, so any advice would be great." He could be her first friend outside of her partner, so it was best to be polite, but still friendly, right? Before she worried too much about it, her smile brightened and cheerfully she thrust her hand out to shake the other player's. "I'm Ren, and this coronamon here is my partner, Huo."

Huo nodded, "It's an honor."

Now that introductions on her end were over, and she was sure she'd gone about it the right way, Ren smiled expectantly at the other player. "What kind of stuff do you do here in D.O?"
