The group had been wandering for quite some time. They had left the area of the spring they had initally been in, and now were in a type of savannah, with the tall brown grass extending as far as the eye could see.
"Seems I didn't think about how this thing judges distance..." Cyril said, looking down at his digivice "Been walking for ages... but we're almost there..."
Indeed, the two dots that represented them had grown much closer to the large square in the distance. They were still unsure exactly what was awaiting them, however. Dorumon glanced back at their tag-alongs.
"You two holding up alright?" He asked, with not much indication weather he cared or not in his voice.

Silvia didn't complain about the long walk. In fact, she just thought of all the exercise she got. She carried Viximon on the top of her backpack, but she hardly weighed a thing. The sun was now dipping low over the horizon.
She glanced back at Cyril, "I'm fine. We've been going for quite sometime. Did you want to stop and make camp?"
"I agree. We've been walking for ages, " Viximon said, with a wag of her large fox-like tail.
"You mean, i've been walking for ages, " She shot her digimon a look, and continued walking.

"Were almost there though." Cyril said, taking another glance down at his digivice. "Just a bit further, and were th-" Cyril was cut off by a large THUD from the distance, and the whole ground seemed to shake, followed by another, and another, until it became clear that these were not your average earthquakes, but rather large footsteps. "And here I was hoping we wouldn't get squished..."Dorumon muttered. On the horizon, a large form could be seen appearing. Cyril held up his D-Tector to the large being as it came into view, and his stats popped up. ElDoradimon Mega Level, Mutant Digimon A large digimon who carries a city upon its back. It is said wonders and treasure await those who venture inside. "Well..." Dorumon said, looking at the massive digimon as it approached "Something tells me that this guy is what we have been tracking..."

Silvia could hear those approaching footsteps from a mile away. Footsteps that rocked the very ground beneath their feet. It couldn't have been a digimon, now could it? Something that big...
And it was. She stared up at the gigantic digimon, who was slowly approaching.
"Uh, we don't have to fight that thing now do we?" Silvia asked Cyril. She was amazed by the information the device could tell them.

"I sure hope not..." Dex said, glancing back as Sylvia, and then looking back up at ElDoradimon "We would be screwed... But I think its too big to see us."
Indeed, the large turtle didn't seem to have noticed the humans or the digimon, and simply continued on its way.
"That could be a problem." Cyril said as he watched the turtle approach, the ground shaking more as it got closer to the group "It could step on us without noticing. But... something tells me this egg we are looking for is in that city somewhere." He looked back down at his digivice, and then back up at the large turtle "And if it isn't... im interested in seeing these 'wonders' the thing speaks of. El Dorado was the city of gold, right?"
"As long as you don't go and kill us..." Dex said to his partner "Im game. But first off, how are we gonna get on that thing?"

Silvia considered a plan for a moment. As far as her knowledge of history goes, El Dorado was the city of gold. The thought excited her.
"Yeah, it is. If we can sneak on it undetected, we can avoid even attempting to fight it. Something tells me, that we won't last long if we did so..."
Although Eldoradimon seemed to move at a slow, sluggish pace. But if they didn't move now, they'd be crushed. She looked around for any way to jump up upon the moving city. There - A mass of thick trees lining the digimons path.
"If we could hurry up and get to those trees over there..." Silvia pointed towards the trees, "Then maybe if we wait for the right moment, we can jump on top of it. Given that it doesn't feel a thing."
Viximon looked at her, "I like that idea. But I can't climb."
Silvia waved her hand, "Relax, i'll carry you. I can't climb trees either, but unless you have another idea, i'm all for it."

"...Works for me." Cyril said, looking at the trees in comparison to ElDoradimon "I just hope we don't end up falling to our deaths from this!"
He ran over to the set of trees in question, and began to climb, Dorumon close behind, his clawed feet and paws easily aiding him up the tree. Looking at ElDoradimon, it seemed the giant turtle would come close enough for the group to jump on one of its legs at its current stride. The bricks that seemed to make up the leg would provide good footing for them to climb even further. They only had to time the jump right, and not look down...

Silvia followed in pursuit to the trees, and immediatly began to climb, as she placed her feet in the right groves and using the thickness of the bark to keep her from sliding down. Viximon jumped off, and hopped to each branch with ease. But eventually, she made it to the highest branch. One that was thick enough to hold her weight.
Eldoradimon approached closer. The tree was not as high as she imagined, but they only had one shot at this.
She braced herself, as she balanced herself standing on the branch. One...two...three...And she jumped, with Viximon following her lead.
She grabbed hold of a large crack on the side of his front leg. His legs, like stone pillars, allowed her to move higher up using the grooves. She dangled for a few minutes on her left hand, until she eventually good a good grip. Viximon pounced upon her, and managed to grip her backpack. She started climbing her way up, struggling a bit as she went, until eventually she reached the top.
Breathlessly, she glanced down to search for Cyril. She sure hoped he made it.

And Cyril had. When the leg passed him by, he hopped off the tree as well, his Dorumon following, and they too had gotten a good grip on the massive digimons leg. Carefully, he climbed up, checking his footing, careful not to look down, knowing he would not like seeing how high he was. Soon enough, the two had gotten up with Silvia once again.
"Well... thats over..." He said, out of breath. He clambered off the large turtles leg, over a small wall, and into the city itself "Lets hope its easy from here on out..."
If he had taken the time, Cyril would be amazed how far out he could see from atop the turtle, but for now he was examining the city. It was not made of gold, but looked instead like it was carved out of stone, in a similar fashion as the turtles legs. Perhaps that whole thing had been a metaphor...

It didn't take Cyril long to reach the top, as he seemed to follow the same safe footing thta Silvia had taken. Either way, they both had made it. Now that they were officially there, she studing the stone-like buildings from where she stood. It looks so much more different when she was actually there.
"Wow.." That's all she managed to say. She hopped over the small wall, and headed straight towards the entrance. Funnily enough, the city was not made of gold. Although, who knows? There may even be treasure around there.
She looked at Cyril, "Do you think that D-Tector of yours can pinpoint exactly in the city, the thing is located?"

"Im not positive..." Cyrill said. He pulled out his digivice and pressed a couple buttons, bringing up the radar again. Zooming in proved to show that the digivice was not tracking ElDoradimon itself, as the square seemed to resize with the radar. It only showed the general direction of whatever it was tracking though. There was no helpful map of the city to work with, but judging from its position...
"It looks like its..." He said, and raised a finger to point at the top of the very large tower in the center of the city "Up there!"

Silvia glanced up to where Cyril pointed, which seems to be where one of the tallest towers were. She was rather relieved at that fact.
"Oh, good. I thought it was down in the depths of some dungeon or something..." She laughed at the thought. Luckily for them, but to get there was another question.
"I'm sure we'll find some stairs, somewhere..." Viximon said. She was awefully quiet for sometime.

"Relief? We gotta climb stairs. Thats gonna be a hassle." Dorumon said, not sounding very happy "Though I suppose we stay as far above the turtle as possible. Hes gotta have a stomach somewhere down there... and I would prefer to stay as far away from that as possible."
Cyril looked at his digivice, and pocketed it once he was positive the tower was what they were supposed to be heading twords.
"Well, no use in just sitting around." he said, and began to walk down one of the alleyways of the city "Might as well look."
The alleys were rather narrow when compared to the main streets, or perhaps they only gave off that impression when one took into account the large buildings surrounding them. The city seemed... eerily quiet, for some reason.

Silvia flexed her fingers, "Hmm...This is quite....eeire." She heard a few low rumbles which echoed through the city, "I hope that's not it's stomach..."
Whether it was the footsteps of Eldoradimon, their may be something else lurking in the streets. Something more....their size.
"I have a bad feeling about this..." She whispered, cursing at every noisy footstep they made.

"...Its just the turtles footsteps." Cyril assured Silvia "Were ontop of him, it would be assumed he would make the city shake with his steps... and even if it was his stomach, not like he could eat us from up here, right?"
Every so often, the alleyway split off into other corridors. They were outside, but they may as well have been in a dungeon. Things were getting confusing. Cyril pulled out his digivice to determine that they were going in the right general direction, and when looking down at his screen, he bumped into Dorumon, not noticing the digimon had stopped.
"Dorumon... whats..."
"Metal Cannon!" The digimon called out, and fired a metal sphere at one of the windows of the buildings. The fur on his body was on edge, and he seemed much more on-guard then before. "I can smell you there, you know!" He called out "Don't try and hide! You'll only make me angry..."
