DigiZhera slides down an inclined tunnel for what seems like eternity. She gets dirtier and dirtier, but thankfully, she's wearing dark clothing, so it shouldn't be that apparent. She eventually sees light and as she comes out of the tunnel, she realizes she's falling from the sky and there's no sign of any ceiling or hole above her. She looks back down and sees three places where she might be able to land safely. There's a gigantic green mushroom with blue spots, a lake with sparkling water or a riskier option: the chimney of a moving train.

"Ugh, didn't really plan on swimming today, but at least it looks good." Zhera aims for the lake.

Zhera fall in the sparkling water... It hurts... A lot. At least, she removed the dirt she collected in that slide...
And there's no time to think about that. Some dark green anglerfish creature is swimming her way. It has no eyes. Just teeth. And a bright bulb.
She looks to the surface. There's a hand in the water. She can't see who's at the end of that hand, but the silhouette at the surface is waving in a way that announces it's trying to help her get out of the water.

Well, no other choice really... Not tryna be fish food, today, sista.
Zhera swims towards the hand and takes hold.

Zhera swims towards the hand and notices it gets out of the water. As the fish approaches, she assumes she's done for, but the hand goes back into the water, grabs her and pulls her out of the water.
The girl takes a moment to catch her breath, as she lays on the ground.
"Whew. Richard almost got you. I had to shake that scarecrow to get your attention. Saw you fall from up above. Good for you that I was here. If Richard caught you, you'd... Actually, I don't know what he does.
Are you what they call a human?"
Zhera looks up, at the scarecrow first. Definitely the silhouette she saw. It doesn't seem to be alive at all. Just a dark brown human imitation made out of straw.
But then... What is talking to her? She looks to her left and notices it. It's literally an arm on the ground, clothed with a blue sleeve. The voice is coming out of it.
"Cause if you are human, you're in trouble, cause I assume I wasn't the only one to see you fall..."

Zhera supresses a scream, putting her hands over her mouth and flaling back. "D-don't freak out... don't freak out... It's just a disembodied arm that talks... and a scarecrow... and a fresh water angler... Haha, I'm going crazy and this is some wack-o illusion, t-that's it. Yeah, that's a-all..."
She gets up in the boat. "S-so, uh, hi. I-I'm Zhera, and yeah, I'm h-human." She gulps.

"Oh no... You're really human?
There is no time.
Are you good at being immobile? You could hide in the scarecrow.
Unless you want to jumpmback in the water..
Or do you have a better idea?"

Zhera isn't sure what to do, so she kind of awkwardly let's herself fall back into the water, staying very close to the surface and trying to be still.

Zhera jumps back into the water and try to be as still as possible... Holding her breath is pretty hard, but the adrenaline from not knowing what is going kicks in and she does her best.
Eventually, more silhouettes show up in the surface. One of them looks quite intimidating and white. Zhera can at least see it is truly a humanoid unlike that hand... The other silhouettes are some kind of green spheres.
The girl manages to breathe until the silhouettes starts to leave, but the anglerfish is coming back... And if she comes out now, whoever came will see her...

Fight the fish. Kick at it.
Or swim in a circle and try to avoid it until the solhouettes leave then dolphin jump into the boat.

The anglerfish approaches Zhera, as she panicks and kicks it. Bubbles come out of the creature as it seems shocked, which seems to give more air for the girl to breathe. The fish goes back down to where it came from, just in time for Zhera to notice the silhouettes are gone. She jumps out of the water, next to the disembodied hand. In the distance, she can see a bulky humanoid walk away with a few companions which from here just seem to be green balls.
"Whew... You're lucky... Marble is the one who saw you... He's the dumbest of Crunch's three sons... Well... Hum... I'm sure you have plenty of questions and I'm not sure where to begin... Take a shot at me."
Zhera realises she saw something gold glint on the fish's neck.

"W-where am I? This don't seem like Kansas, that's for sure. And what would those guys want me for?"
She also peers down towards the water, looking for any signs of the fish.
