[ A video feed clicks on to show a very angry girl. Despite being fairly young and holding a stuffed animal of all things, she looks incredibly frustrated. ]

L-Look here, whovever's listening! You can't just throw me in some kind of weird world and expect me to participate! You'll all pay! I'll call the police, they won't stand for this! Kidnapping an idol is way worse than just kidnapping some ordinary girl! I'm sure of that!

[ Her gaze shifts downwards for a minute or so, and another voice can be heard, though it's face cannot. ]

My Lady, please calm down. You aren't in any danger and you haven't been kidnapped by a person...

[ She scoffs at it, and turns back to the feed, refusing to respond. ]

While I'm at it, why won't this thing stop following me? It's not cute at all! It'll ruin my image! Is it supposed to be some kind of weird pet or something? It keeps on telling me that I have to stay here to save something, but I'm not a hero! I just want to go home... Ryuugu Komachi needs me.

[The voice that comes through the line belongs to an adult woman, and she sounds entirely serious.]

This is Commander Shepard hailing SSV Normandy.

[Pause.]

Come in, Normandy.

[Pause.]

Goddammit, Joker, where the hell are you?

[Pause.]

Wait. Where did--

[In the background, there is faint shouting.]

Shit, Monodramon, what did you do?!

[The feed clicks off.]

[There is a bit of static before a video flickers into life, and the first thing anyone watching is going going to see will be a large green eye staring right into the screen. It blinks a few times before the video is turned on its side and a loud voice can be heard, slightly muffled and stat-icy since it's so close to the microphone.]

Alright Hic, you're the one who's savvy with the techo-gizmos and what not. Is this thing on?

[There's a pause and a little shaking as the D-Terminal swaps hands- rather, Hiccup has to practically yank it out of Gomamon's claws.]

It looks like it's on. And I told you, I....I've never seen anything like this before. Not on Berk at least..

[He holds the little device gingerly and at a distance so he and Gomamon can actually be visible. Gomamon is sitting on Hiccup's head pretty much, with his flippers almost flopped over into his face.]

Great! Now can I hold it, pleease? Nobody can see me from way up here!

Hold on a sec Gomamon. I wanted to- hey! No, wait--!!

[Suddenly there's a rush of colors and then a burst of static and a loud rattling noise as the D-Terminal collides with the ground. Faint bickering can be heard, and if anyone is still paying attention they might catch a glimpse of Hiccup's feet- er, foot- before he has a chance to pick the device back up, quickly looking it over for damage.]

Aaaugh, at this rate I'm going to be the only one with half working devices..

Hmph. Not my fault you're clumsy.

[Hiccup sighs heavily and looks back at the screen, trying to ignore Gomamon.]

Look, does anyone know what we're exactly supposed to...do next? Because I'm obviously not getting much help here.

Hey! You watch your mouth kid, or I'll give ya somethin' to complain about!!

*The video clicks on to show a man in his thirties, dressed in dark clothes with a distinctly military look. Despite that, he has a calm and gentle expression only slightly at odds with the attentive look in his eyes.*

Well, now that I've gotten a basic tour, I think it's about time I introduced myself. I'm Commander Jin Uzuki, but please, don't let the military title intimidate you. I like to think I haven't completely lost touch with civilian life.

*His shoulder tilts a bit as a blue digimon scrambles up to perch on his shoulders.*

And I'm Veemon! Just Veemon, though, I don't have any fancy titles.

*Jin chuckles and proceeds as if his partner hadn't interrupted.*

As unusual as these circumstances are, I hope I can get along or at least cooperate with everyone here. We do have the same goal after all...or so I'd hope, anyway.

Oh, and one last thing. If anyone here is familiar with the name Miltia, I'd like to hear from you.

[The feed opens on Wally's face, currently still in uniform. He doesn't look particularly pleased and is presently ignoring Elecmon, who he occasionally keeps pushing out of frame. He has more pressing concerns right now than those of his Digital Monster.]

Okay, let's cut to the chase (you know, which would be funnier if I had my speed): it'd be really great if someone could explain to me why I don't have my superspeed anymore. It's kinda hard to be Kid Flash without the flash, you know? Like, I get that I'm in some sort of alternate dimension or something, but I still had superspeed in that pocket dimension with Doctor Fate, so c'mon, what's the deal here.

It's seriously cramping my style, and I feel really weird. Well, I guess normal. Which is weird. For me. I don't feel like I have to eat every five seconds and it kinda feels like time is passing way too fast. Which probably sounds a bit backwards, but believe me, it's not. When you used to be able to run at the speed of sound, the rest of time passed by pretty slow.

So. Anyone? Any brilliant ideas? Already ruling out magic by default because it doesn't exist, so. Anything other than that would be helpful.

Kid Flash out.

[End feed.]

[The video comes to life suddenly, shaking a little as the device is inspected by the young woman. It's pointed off to the side, then up, then down at the ground, before being righted.

When she finally notices it, she blinks curiously.]

Oh, Lopmon...what does that mean?

[The video moves a little, and the rabbit-like Digimon's face appears right under hers. He looks into the screen thoughtfully, then looks up at her.]

You've activated the video feed.

The...video feed...?

Yeah. Right now it's transmitting a video to everyone's D-Terminals.

[Even though the video isn't directly focused on her, anyone who's paying attention will notice her eyes widening.] E...e-everyone's...?

Anyone who's got one.

[The young woman gives a small squeak, and suddenly the video is shaking once again. Blurred images of the ground, the sky, any nearby scenery flash by in rapid succession as though the camera was spinning.

There's a brief flash of Lopmon approaching before the camera is once again steadied, focused on the ground as his feet touch down. The video shakes a little more as the device is turned over, and there's a sheepish smile on Lopmon's face when it comes back into view.]

S-sorry about that everyone. Fluttershy is a bit...well, shy.

[He glances back towards his partner; though his head takes up most of the screen, a little farther back are a pair of eyes staring back at him, peaking over a curtain of light-yellow feathers.

Lopmon sighs.]
