Sora bounced over to the amusement park where she would fill in for the hot-air balloon. She spotted the site of the ride easily; it was the only place that had a basket. She bounced over to who she thought was the mechanic. It was yet another Madpuffymon.

"Excuse me" Sora asked. "are you the mechanic in charge of this ride?"

The Madpuffymon, who's back was turned to Sora, grumbled something under his breath. "Look, I know you're bored, but you'll just have to wait like everybody else!" He didn't bother to look behind him.

"Oh I'm not a customer. I was sent to fill in for the balloon ride." Sora said.

Now the Digimon looked behind him. "Oh, I'm sorry." He looked Sora over. He wasn't expecting a human. "Wait here."

The Madpuffymon walked over to the other side of the basket and wheeled two helium tanks into sight. There was a blue package of some sort tied to the tanks.

"What's that thing on the tanks?" Sora asked.

"It's a bodysuit that you'll have to wear while you're working here." The Madpuffymon said.

"Why's that?" Sora asked again.

"Because you have to placed so that you're face-up." The Madpuffymon responded. "If not, the blood will rush into you're head, or you'll be mooning the whole town. It'll also let people think that you're a real balloon, so that some of them won't be looking up from time to time, if you catch my drift."

Sora wondered what that meant, then blushed in realization. "Oh, I see."

"There's a fitting room with a suction pump over over by the roller coaster." The Digimon said, pointing towards the other ride. "You have to deflate to fit into the suit, so come back when you're ready."

"Sure!" Sora said as the mechanic handed her the bodysuit.

About twenty minutes later, Sora was filled with helium and escorting the parkgoers as the new balloon.
