Kari nodded along as Mark responded. "Yeah... it's really messed up that they want to attack her. She seems so defenseless and innocent! Well... like I said I don't know how much help I'll be, but I promise to do what I can if they come back." Chespin chittered in agreement. Kari stroked Chespin's head and leaned back against the cave entrance, watching as things slowly calmed down.<br/><br/>When they were informed that they would be teleported to a safer place, she just chuckled. What a strange start to her adventure. But at least it was exciting. When it was her turn, she held onto Chespin tight, and in the blink of an eye, she was suddenly in Mike's house. She felt a bit dizzy and disoriented for a moment, and decided she didn't like teleporting. Still, she introduced herself to everyone she didn't recognize as Kari the trainer from Fortree. Then she lay down on the floor next to the couch that Kiki was sleeping on. She was exhausted from her journey, so it didn't take her long to doze off, cuddling with Chespin and Squirtle.<br/><br/>***<br/><br/>When Kari opened her eyes, she was no longer laying in a house next to a couch. The smell of the trees, the feel of the soft soil beneath her, the birds chirping... she was in a forest. Back at home, Kari spent a lot of time exploring nearby forests, camping in the woods. She felt more at home here than in any building. Still, it was alarming to wake up somewhere other than where you fell asleep.<br/><br/>She quickly took inventory and made sure she still had her bag and two pokemon. She breathed a sigh of relief, realizing they were all still with her. "Just where are we now guys?" She asked her pokemon rhetorically. Chespin cocked its head, confused.<br/><br/>But then another voice chimed in "you're in the digital world Kari!" She looked over to see two strange little creatures. They didn't really look like pokemon. "Digital world.... you... you're digimon?" She asked slowly. "Yep! I'm Dodomon and this is Kiimon! We're your new companions!" Dodomon said cheerfully. "Well... your other new companions" he said looking at her pokemon.<br/><br/>"Well it's nice to meet you" Kari said with a smile. Suddenly they heard a girl screaming off in the distance. "Did you guys hear that? Someone's in trouble! We... we should go see if we can help. Come on!"
