It all started with a split
Nate was searching up something on his computer.
Whisper was looking at something on his y-pad.
Jibanyan was taking a little catnap.
"Hm, something's off."
He was trying to search something on the search bird website, but it was lagging quite a bit.
On the other side of the computer, something was on the run.
"Now first I avoid some triggers, then some said triggers try to jump me, darn my luck. Now, maybe this computer user can help me."
The being soon made a zip line towards the screen.
"You know what, maybe I should just refresh the page."
As he went for his mouse, the computer screen began to glow.
The being popped out of it right after.
"Wh-whaaaa" Nate managed to stammer as he looked at the being.
The being jumped back for a moment before properly standing up.
Whisper and Jibanyan looked confused as Nate looked at him.
"Let's just say...I'm a digital yo-kai." he responded.
"Nyate, who are you talking to?" Jibanyan asked.
"Wait, neither of you can see this guy?"
"These two ghosts can't see me with the naked eye without some assistance from something in particular." the being told him.
He soon jumped off of the desk that he was standing on and walked towards them.
All he did was give them a tap.
"So, can you see me now?"
The two were looking at him curiously, wondering how a hologram was talking to them.
"I'm guessing that's a yes."
He turned back to face Nate.
"Let me ask you first, has anything weird been going on through the internet?"
"Whisper, haven't you just told me yesterday that the GPS on your y-pad got you lost?"
He gave a nod.
"Interesting. I've actually been seeing this sort of this going on here a lot lately. Let's just say where I'm from, we can take care of this problem pretty easily! But first..."
He turned towards his watch.
The dream watch then projected a message.
Do you want to be a true protagonist?
Y/N
"...I don't know what I'm getting myself into, but I did deal with worse than just a simple computer virus, I even faced Death!"
He soon pressed yes on the hologram.
It disappeared and the watch began to change a bit.
It gained an additional slot on the bottom and the glass cover on the watch-face began to change a bit.
*Pairing Serbirdmon*
The watch changed colors to that of a shade of green and red.
Something then appeared under the being's feet.
He levitated over to him.
"Pleasure to meet you buddy, I'm Serbirdmon!"
"Wh-what are you anyway?"
"I told ya, I'm like a digital yo-kai! I'm an appmon!"
He then showed them the thing he was standing on.
"This is my appmon chip! You can call it something like a yo-kai medal."
As Nate was about to ask him something, he heard his parents complaining about something.
"They just got home now?"
The group looked out the door to see what was going on.
"It shouldn't have taken us this long to get home!"
Nate then saw something come out of his mother's phone.
"What is that?"
"That is Navimon, the navigation appmon!" Serbirdmon told him.
The appmon noticed them, and began to run away.
"After him, we can't let him get away!"
They chased him outside when they saw something odd.
"Okay, now what the heck is this tear in space?"
"Use the watch!"
Nate proceeded to point the watch towards the rip, and it began to open as they were being teleported.
"H-how?" Whisper gaped in awe as Jibanyan proceeded to whack him to get him out of that state.
They were soon in another place entirely.
"This is an AR field. Here some appmon can-"
Serbirdmon got interrupted by an arrow shuriken.
They then saw the Navimon.
"He's been infected! Nate, take my chip and put it into the watch, I think I can take care of this guy!" he ordered as he disappeared into the chip he was standing on.
Nate gave a nod, and snatched up the levitating chip.
"Alright, calling Serbirdmon! Appmon chip, do your thing!"
Appli arise!
The chip was being registered, as Nate aimed the watch to fire.
A beam came out and hit the ground.
Serbirdmon! (quite the little guy ain't he?)
Serbirdmon! A standard grade appmon, a social type with the database search ability!
"Ah, it feels nice to finally be in physical form! Now, why don't I take care of this guy again?" he said as he summoned his weapon bracelets and lunged for the infected Navimon.
"Again? Isn't this the only time we met?" Jibanyan asked.
"Remember, he did say that where he's from he deals with this problem a lot. Perhaps he's fought a Navimon before, whis?" Whisper told him.
As soon as they turned back to focus on the fight, Navimon was calmed already.
"Thanks for the help. I promise I'll take care of anymore left over problems in the GPS app, here's my chip!" he disappeared as Nate took the chip.
"Thanks Navimon."
Nate and Serbirdmon looked at each other, then grinned.
"Now I do have to wonder what that bird has in store for us yo-kai?" Jibanyan asked as the group left for home.
In the next chapter: Inaho and USApyon were walking while taking a look at the tv screens showcasing the latest games. Suddenly, something at the corner on one of the screens caught her eye. "Oh, who are you?" The being turned around. "Are you talking to me? I'm actually a powerhouse of an appmon, Karatemon!"
"Now why did he run away? Did I do something wrong?" Gatchmon asked.
