It was hot. He could feel the sweat trail his forehead. For once, he found it more annoying that to be observant of it. His feet were covered in muck after having mistakenly walked off the hardened path. It was an unfortunate stroke of luck, to be watching everything in the game through the normal perspective actually made things difficult for him.

"Löwe, who will be accompanying us?" His partner attempted to start a conversation with him. Just as he was programmed. Löwe found it annoying, suppressing the urge to roll his eyes. He could change it. He could modify the digimon's programming to act merely as a tool for him to use to defeat these bugs.

"Lucent Lee," he answered regardless, remembering the name from the list. There was little that he knew about today's partner. The girl was a foreigner -- it was easy enough to tell with her accent and the way she held herself was different. Monimon had been her designated partner, and that was all he knew.

How useful a Monimon could be to face these bugs was going to be interesting.

He watched a fin rise at the distance, deep inside the swamp. It was the bug, he knew. The digital monster that they needed to clean up and change. He could have done this without a partner but --

"Löwe, wait for them."

The tamer looked back to Bakumon. While he exercised the thought, he wouldn't go off charging without backup.

Come on, today was not the day for her to be late or lagging or whatever the hell it was. Lee had attempted to run to make up for the time she lost by... well, getting lost, but it was impossible with that little Monimon's pathetic attempts at running. Nubby legs, not good for running. Should have known. "Get it together, little guy, we're on the job today," Lee grumbled as she jogged back a few paces and hoisted the little monitor into her arms. "Heavier than you look, you little asshole."

">:!!!" The Monimon beeped a bit and squirmed in her grip.

"Okay, okay I get it. I'll watch the language around the co-worker, I swear. And I guess you're not actually an ass. I'm not even sure you have a butt- do you have a butt?" She made 'small talk' as she resumed jogging with her Digimon gripped close. Even with how squirmy it seemed to be, it actually wasn't that hard to keep a good grip on the thing. Like a little box since he was just cube-shaped. Handy, she supposed. Slowly three little dots appeared on Monimon's screen and Lee sighed in an overly dramatic fashion. "No faith in me, I swear. I can control myself, you know. I got hired in the first place. Give me a little credit here you grumpy data."

In no time the two were finally arriving at their destination, no thanks to nubby-legs. Off in the distance she could see the form of the guy she'd be working with- actually boy might be more appropriate. She didn't imagine Löwe was actually as young as he appeared to be, or else he was one smart kid. Eh, it was possible, but she had her doubts about it. "Yo! Sorry if I'm late!" Lee shouted ahead, still having a little distance she needed to traverse.

Few last minute thoughts, getting herself in-line and all that good stuff. At least she could actually do something today. Lee had been getting a little too antsy for her own good.

This girl was already losing points with him. She was late and loud. At least her partner didn't seem like the type to speak. It was a television after all.

He let it slide for now and turned to the task at hand. There were digimon here that were stronger than the others. They would have to fight and look for just where they were being spawned from.

"Keep your guard up." His tone was crisp and clear, betraying that he actually was older in real life. The misleading avatar he chose was just that, misleading. He stared at her long enough for her name to show up, "lucent lee." It was the same as the record he'd read. Löwe had to make sure.

"According to the report, the spine over there is a digimon glitch." He began. "An error in the program. They were a Coelmon, but he evolved on his own attacking tamers of all ranks." The "spine" in question, twitched, but did nothing. It would seem that they were waiting for them to enter the swamp, willingly or not.

"They spawn digimon every now and then to lure tamers down their path." He continued. "Our job is to eliminate him and to find and fix the glitch." Even Bakumon shivered from the coldness in his tone.

"Understood?"
