Into Data; What the fuck, it works?

C for Celeste.
Celeste is my name.

She felt her head vibrate as she stared forward, unfocused. Seeing without seeing, she stared at a bank of bushes-dark green with neon red berries- without knowing it. Tiny little pieces of data buzzed around her head.

Remember that time you
Birthday party at Discovery Zone
Ate the body of Christ
Had a friend who would ask, "remember that time?"

The berries became points of red light as her vision blurred in and out. Suddenly, she had focus. Green leaves, slats of yellow sunlight, purple flowers. Her senses had integrated. Dizzily, she thrust her hands out, striking a tree off to her side. Leaning against the black bark, she smiled. This was it. She had done it. Celeste knew that when she reached into her bag, there would be a Digivice - all according to the program.

Vision lapsed into white noise; sound grew replaced by a faint crackling. The world had become a TV without a signal and Asher’s eyes were a screen. She wanted to see if it looked any different without her glasses, but couldn’t remember how to lift her arms. Did she even have a body anymore? It was an absurd thought, but at the moment it seemed perfectly rational.

She began to see patterns in the static the longer she stared. Tall structures formed across the fuzzy landscape, becoming clearer and clearer as her vision focused. The crackling noise plugging her ears gradually faded. Suddenly she became aware that she was standing in a clearing surrounded by trees, her eyes picking out individual leaves gently waving in a breeze that had seemed to drift in from nowhere.

I’m… here?

Asher blinked hard a few times. The forest around her looked as real as any other. Silence reigned. At last she felt like herself again, instead of a mind without a body floating in nothingness. “I’m here,” she choked out, as if the world would fade away unless she affirmed it really existed.

It worked. What the fuck, it works? “I’m here!” she cried out in delight, a triumphant grin stretching across her face. It disappeared in an instant when she realized her entire body felt like the white noise she’d been staring at. Losing balance, Asher fell backwards onto the dirt.

Time...what is time? And space?

He had been running. Jay had been running.

"My name is Jay?"

Yes, Jason. Jason Scott.

He shouldn't have been running; his ankle needed to be treated tenderly. But he missed running so tenderly. He hadn't been running to start, he had been walking. But what had pushed him to run?

He looked around as his head cleared. He was in a deep wood, evergreens surrounding him. Bright red berries grew from the branches, and shrubberies with pretty flowers lined the path around him. Forks split in all different directions down the road, as far as he could see. He breathed deeply and exhaled slowly.

His hand clenched tightly around the small device in his hand. A word rang through his mind, only once, though infinitely:
"Digivice."

Though he knew it to be true, he thought it was impossible. He must be dreaming. And oh, indeed he was in a dream, but not asleep, a dream of reality...a digital dream.

Celeste stood in awe of the berry bush. Her mind went completely blank, replaced only by a stunning sense of awe.

It would be half a minute before something occurred to Celeste - something was missing. If she was here, why wasn't her partner Digimon with her? That was how the program was supposed to go: Digivice, Digidestined, and Digimon partner. Her Digivice, the disc-like device that it was, rested in the palm of her hand. She lifted it up in front of her face and inspected it. The shape of the Digivice was not what she expected it to be. Although she had expected it to defy her expectations, she still held some assumptions as to how it would look. A touch-screen disk with a spectrum from red to blue of buttons on the side was not how she envisioned it would look. She wondered how the others' would look - each one was tailored to their Digidestined. On the flip side of the disk, an engraving broke apart the red/blue swirling color scheme, though she could not make out the design.

"Unless the program is totally fucked," she mumbled to herself, crunching dry leaves as she moved on from the berry bush. "There should be others around here... and our Digimon."
