"W-w-well, I am," Tadashi taps his own chest, then holds out the water bottle for the boy, "t-take deep breaths, t-t-try not to p-panic, okay?"
He blinks, caught a little off-guard by That's question. Wedding gifts? Now? Really? "M-my mom and d-dad always take r-r-really ugly vases t-to weddings," That's about as much as he can think of. He's not...uh. How is this the weirdest part of the day, between monster brawls and parallel universes?
Maildramon grunts at SkullKnightmon, and then proceeds to cancel his Xros, reverting to the imp-like Flamemon, and the mirrored metal man, Mercurymon. They just sort of...flank the black knight, displeased with his attitude so far. More importantly, they aren't happy with him being so close to Tadashi.
Their pet human, meanwhile, is more concerned about the younger human boy. Clearly he's brand new to all of this nonsense, and...perhaps not the bravest of fellows. Never mind. Fixable.
"W-what's your name, k-kid?"

When asked if everyone around the panicked boy if any of them were human, That had went and pointed to everyone, denoting what they were.
Himself, then Sinclair, then the Mercurymon and Flamemon: "Digimon. Not human."
To SkullKnightmon: "A most complete and self-contained asshat for killing someone I was asking a question to. Also a Digimon."
To Taashi: "And that's a human. A human who has parents with terrible choices in wedding gifts.
But I will say, I appreciate you trying to help.
Anyway, new guy, I don't bite. Humans, I mean. I heard their blood tastes like pennies and I don't really want to experience the taste of metal. Plus if you don't want the hair you got to shave them and hope you don't eat the excrement and urine, so you need to drain those out as well.
I'm a normally busy digimon. I simply do no have the time to prepare, cook, and eat some probably nasty tasting humans. Looks like you're half bones too so even if I were to want to eat you I'd consider you not worth the effort extra."

Hyo's eyes danced, going from Tadashi, to Skull Knightmon, to Flamemon, to Mercurymon, back to Tadashi. "Me? Well... I'm... Hyo..." he whispered, his eyes now looking down.
"Hyo. Like ice. I appreciate your parents' sense of humor, Hyo," Skull Knightmon said, nodding to himself. "However, we have a large issue now. I'll be iced if you don't remain here as my partner. That's a bit cold for my taste, being frozen in time would do me no good. So, Hyo, since you currently hold the XrosLoader that I've linked my soul with, how about we heat things up as partners?" Skull Knightmon asked, offering his hand to the young boy after a fantastic series of puns.
Suddenly being offered a partnership with a knight was not on his list of things to do today Hyo's eyes met Tadashi's, he was confused, lost, scared. "Mister, uh..." He now realized he didn't even know Tadashi's name. "Does anyone want to help me? What do I do? I have no idea..." he asked all parties.
Skull Knightmon stood, hand outstretched, waiting patiently. He knew he would win. The boy was defenseless in this world without him.

Tadashi gives a little smile, "N-nice to meet y-y-you, Hyo," He gives SkullKnightmon a look as he breaks into a seemingly-endless stream of puns. He's about to say something, before Flamemon cuts in, being his usual charming self, "Back off, Rusty. Why would the kid want you as a partner after watchin' you hunt down and try to kill that guy? Nutjob,"
"Verily," Thanks Mercurymon.
Tadashi shakes his head, and offers his hand as well, "Let's t-take this one step at a t-t-time, sh-shall we? I'm T-Tadashi. I can help y-you get home, I th-think. Let's s-sort out all th-this nonsense with th-the lance-wielding l-lunatic first, sh-sh-shall we?"
Probably.

"Jeez, SkullKnightmon, work on your situational pun pacing. Acting like you're hot stuff in a champagne bottle when you're really cold diarrhea in a paper cup. Poor performance... tsk tsk."
Tadashi had volunteered to aid Hyo to get back home, all the while Skullknightmon was waiting for the human to take him as his digimon. That crossed his arms and looked off to the side.
"Well, whether or not you take Monocidal Lancer with you is none of my concern, but there is a way back home in Terminus. It's a long way, though, and the digital world is mighty dangerous for the unprepared. I'd suggest you'd go with the other human and his digimon. I doubt the SkullKnightmon will offer much of any help, though."

"You can really take me home?!" Hyo was excited now. For some reason, the prospect of going home made him happier than it had ever made him in his life. Home, where he was safe. Even if he had to deal with the bullies, at least it was better than dealing with actual monsters. He relaxed for just a moment, letting his arms fall to his side and-
"SARABA!" In one swift motion, Skull Knightmon made his cape appear, promptly throwing it at Hyo, blinding him, before he wrapped his arms around the boy and jumped away from the others. He kicked up some dust to blind the others as well as he made his way toward a nearby cavern. Not one to take no for an answer, Skull Knightmon would have to force this boy's hand. After all, he had already claimed victory just moments earlier.

"Wh--," Oh for fu--...Tadashi grunts and rubs the sand out of his eyes. So much for SkullKnightmon wanting to form a partnership with the other kid, hm? Maybe he just wants easy passage to the human world for some reason.
"My Lord, they went that way," Mercurymon points.
"H-how...c-could you have seen? Th-that ass th-threw sand in our e-eyes!"
"I don't have eyes, My Lord. How I see at all is a mystery,"
...Yeah, alright. Fair point. But table that particular discussion for later, perhaps. Tadashi beckons to his two 'soldiers' and starts to head in the direction that SkullKnightmon had apparently leaped in. Unfortunately, they had quite a head-start, and were probably moving faster than Tadashi and his team. He doesn't pause to say anything to the two wedding-attending folk, figuring they've got their own things to deal with.

That and Sinclair covered their eyes from the dust as the SkullKnightmon kidnapped Hyo. The others gave chase, but That stood there, watching.
"Not going to chase them?"
"I'm not *that* petty. Besides, if I wanted him truly beat down, I would have stomped him into the ground already.
Besides, revenge is a dish best served cold... and I'd rather serve it when he's able to not be trounced by me in 10 seconds.
Anyway... I think I'll fold and ask Burst for advice. Getting gifts for weddings is hard...
...but I'm not related to them. What's your excuse?"
Sinclair looked a bit surprised and turned away. Did he really ask that question?

One moment he was talking to a lizard, a lizard-man, a walking mirror, a human, and a black armored thing. The next, he was swallowed in darkness. He couldn't move his arms. Was it paralysis? Was his captor that strong? Or was it fear? Hyo's mind flooded with thoughts as he tried to regain his composure. Right after he had met someone he could talk to, he felt himself being snatched away. And then he hit the ground as if he had been thrown, and the cover of darkness that had met his eyes had drifted away.
"Hyo, listen to me very carefully," Skull Knightmon spoke, offering his hand to Hyo. They were inside a sand cave not too far from the oasis. Skull Knightmon knew he didn't have much time, his pursuers would be here soon. "Right now you hold my fate in your hands. I need you to partner up with me so that we could both become stronger. That is your wish, right? To be stronger?"
How did this creature know this? Hyo had barely said anything aside from expressing his desire to go home. He simply looked into the living armor's bright yellow eyes, trying to find some reason for this being's knowledge.
"I don't even know your name. I don't know how you know that I want to be stronger. Or why you even think that. I don't know anything about you! And the others were saying you killed someone!"
"All very fine points. I am Skull Knightmon, a vigilante who liberates the oppressed with sheer force. I am a Digimon, a Digital Monster whose soul is now linked with that trinket you hold. And I hold the key to you becoming stronger should you choose to stay here with me. I'll even accept help from the others if that is what you wish. I will be at your beck and call. In exchange, however, I will ask that we seek out other Digimon and form a team. If we do that, I will unlock my true power and you will become that much more powerful," Skull Knightmon said, his hand still outstretched.
Hyo took out the Xros Loader as Skull Knightmon recited his speech, examining it thoroughly. Sure enough, Skull Knightmon's face was on the main screen of the device. Hyo grabbed Skull Knightmon's hand, but only to stand up. However, he did not let go. He stood there, staring Skull Knightmon in the eyes. This decision would change the course of his life. He would no longer be bullied, he would have the power to fight back. He thought about this, his hand never letting go of Skull Knightmon's.

"Just b-b-be careful before y-you make any d-decisions," GAH. Conveniently timed Tadashi! He arrives sitting on the back of Maildramon (apparently having fused his partners together again, like the crazy he is), sliding down to stand on the floor as they finally catch up to the pair, "This isn't one y-y-you can t-take back," He explains, taking a few steps towards them.
"If you decide to j-join with a D-D-Digimon, it's forever. So you'd better m-make sure y-you want t-t-t..." deep breath, "t-to deal with th-this level of insanity e-every day of your l-l-life from now on,"
Well, he has a good point. And he's said his piece. He doesn't hugely approve of SkullKnightmon, but it's really all down to Hyo, since he has the Xros Loader now. So he'll wait, and see what the boy decides.

Hyo, who had his back facing Tadashi, turned around. He looked the young boy in the eyes as he lifted the Xros Loader in his right hand.
"Standby!" the device declare as the screen turned on. Hyo pressed the center button, prompting the device to declare "Yes, sir!" Hyo's finger tapped the center button once more, prompting Skull Knightmon's face to appear on the device's screen. "Loading!"
"Reload! Skull Knightmon!" Hyo cried out, once more hitting the button, prompting a flash of light to erupt from the Xros Loader.
"Tengan! Skull Knightmon! Mega Uload!" the Xros Loader announced before a drum solo followed by a metal guitar riff sounded out from the device before it decreed "CRUSH THE INVADER!"
Before Hyo stood Skull Knightmon, kneeling like a proud and noble warrior. "Your wish is my command, Master," he spoke obediently. He had won. Hyo had accepted his fate just before Tadashi entered the cave.
"Please, Tadashi-san, teach me how I can be stronger. Help me become someone worthy of Skull Knightmon's power."
