How come a single teenager was at the midst of Miyashita Cemetery in the dead of the night? Quite the interesting question, even though the reason could be summarized as a certain brunette that happened to be a crustacean cloaked as a human having weird cravings regarding visiting the strangest of places at the most inopportune of times. First, some underwater ruins, and now a cemetery of all places. The conclusion? That Katherine was the strangest weirdo around, more or less.
“Why are we even here?” The question itself had been repeated over and over again, almost for what felt like an eternity.
“He’s right, Sis. D-do we really need to be here? This place makes me shiver.”
One would think that two-on-one was enough for the trio to pack their things and return to the cozy warmth of Magnus’ apartment, however…
“Here’s another one. I can just feel it. We should enter.”
Right now, the group stood in front of a pretty massive mausoleum. Considering how the entrance was —understandably— locked, that meant another tough decision for the trio. Or, at least for the person that knew how breaking into private property in the middle of the night wasn't the brightest of ideas.
“Are you sure, Kath?” The male asked again, after exhaling a sigh of tiredness.
Were they really going to do this?

Of all times for a pair of digimon disguised as human teenagers to decide to explore the Human World it happened to be night. One had the appearance of a stereotypically nerd and the other was taller with flame like hair. The big surprise was though these two were twins, that this was as far from twins than one could be in appearance. Hiroshi and Leroy had always had an opposite paradigm going except for their alignment as chaotic neutral. Leroy was the twin that put the chaotic in chaotic neutral though as it was the disguised Shoutmon's crazy idea to not only travel to the Human World but lead them to this cemetery. At first things were as quiet as the disguised Cutemon called Hiroshi would think it would be until Leroy began sniffing the air. "What is it, Leroy?" Hiroshi asked as if the behavior wasn't considered odd while in disguise. Oh well, old habits die hard.
"We aren't alone here, Hiroshi. There are other living beings and at least more than one is a digimon." Leroy said as his eyes became alive with the excitement of a potential fight.
"Easy, Leroy. If we get in a fight we might attract trouble even in the middle of the night. Besides we got these holosuits to blend in not stick out like sore thumbs." Hiroshi said as he took a brief sniff of the air and sure enough his twin was right. "Though there is nothing wrong with seeing what is up with the others in this cemetery."
Leroy nodded and the two brothers walked in the direction of the strangers with Hiroshi standing slightly behind Leroy in a defensive position since his attacks were all long range. He hoped fighting wouldn't be necessary since he wasn't sure if Leroy would remember to deactivate his holosuit if a fight erupted. Soon they spotted the trio they smelled and Hiroshi walked up next to his brother and called out "Hey there! What are you three doing out here in the middle of the night?"

Once again, Faustein's daily life had gotten rather hectic in the recent few months, what with that surreal encounter he had with a certain alien bug digimon in a certain, very suspiciously programmed VRMMORPG game, and his encounter with the head of household for one of the most illustrious families in Japan whom he had come face to face for the purposes of setting up a business deal for his maternal grandparents who were the current heads of the Kuroyakushi Group of big businesses. As a result, his research had taken a backseat for a while which then led to him overcompensating by burying himself for several weeks on end in his lab. Unfortunately for him, the day came when his mind, though prodigious, had finally cracked and given way to a total mental block. That brings the story of his life up to the present moment. Currently, Faustein was out for one of his rare late evening/nighttime strolls in an effort to clear away the mental block which had been plaguing him over the past couple days. Ah, such a peaceful evening this is for Shibuya but it is nevertheless an odd feeling, considering how utterly busy it is otherwise.
Faustein was musing silently while letting his feet meander where they may as he lazily moved through the area. Strangely enough, after several hours of doing such idle wandering while being utterly lost in his thoughts, he was surprised to find himself in the vicinity of the Miyashita Cemetery. Hmm, why...did I end up here of all places, I wonder? Oh well, I suppose I will simply wander around here for the time being.He thought silently as he continued his wandering path, but at one point, the voices of his two digimon, Taser the Kokuwamon and Lego the ShadowToyAgumon issued forth from his Xros Loader which was set into his bionic left upper limb "Alert: Unknown signatures detected in vicinity. Awaiting further instructions, General."Naturally, his curiosity was aroused as to the identity of these unknowns, so he tried looking about and following the guidance of his two Digimon, especially that of Taser due to its scouting ability. Eventually, he found that the signature signal was growing stronger the more he headed toward the Miyashita Cemetery. Of course, this only serve to intensify his curiosity still further by several degrees, and so he snuck into the Cemetery grounds and started to trace the signals back to their source, what ever that may be in the end. Needless to say, he was moving as quietly as possible to minimize the risk of startling or otherwise provoking the bearers of said signatures in any way. OOC:Appearance:

Granted, a more calm and reasonable mind would’ve thought that such a place, this late at night would be all but deserted. Imagine Magnus and the siblings’ surprise at the first pair of visits that decided to approach and greet them… kinda casually, to boot.
Was that enough of a reason for the trio to be on guard? Was this group actually friendly? Those and many more questions coursed through the teenager’s mind while, in a motion that happened to be pretty standard for the trio, Katherine stepped forward to face the newcomers while Akemi inched behind her general.
“Could ask the same, y’know?” The holosuited digimon said, her tone slightly effervescent. “Don’t know about you, but most people from where I come from usually introduce themselves before asking others what’s their business. It’s called manners over there.”
Those words were meant mostly as teasing, even though negating that there was a measure of truth to them was probably not the right thing to do. In any case, the ball was on the twins’ court.
“Th-they’re digimons as well.” Akemi told Magnus as a barely audible whisper; overall, it made sense; Katherine wasn’t as defensive in the face of strangers usually, and this situation had its quota of weirdness to them.
The teenager’s response? A shrug. If things looked like they’d turn bad, they’d act accordingly. But until then? He was more than happy to let Katherine do the talking.

"I guess we should have introduced ourselves first. Do forgive us but we're from out of town. I'm Hiroshi." The disguised scaly Cutemon said before placing a hand on his taller companion's shoulder and said "This is my brother, Leroy."
The disguised furry Shoutmon looked as he was sizing the strangers up but his posture wasn't aggressive. The posture was relaxed as he cocked his head curiously and said "We could also ask you why you're here seeing as most of us aren't what we appear to be. You two ladies are digimon aren't you? My nose doesn't lie when it comes to these things and I know that Hiroshi can smell it too though his sense of smell isn't as acute as mine."
"It's more like I have good ears and I heard your sibling say they're digimon as well." Hiroshi said before he continued "We mean no harm though. We were just doing some late night exploring when we caught the scent of you two and your tamer, I presume."

Faustein was intrigued more and more the closer he got to these data signals and once he came near, he saw that there were a total of five individuals standing around conversing, so he figured he should go introduce himself as well. However, the spirit of the mischievous devil inside him reared its ugly head and took him over, so instead he decided he would play a prank on the group if he could pull it off correctly. Thankfully, his face already had those telltale signs of sleep deprivation, aka the really prominent dark bags under his eyes which were currently bloodshot as well due to him staying up late earlier. So, on the front of looking like some ghoulish zombie, he was already set. Additionally, as per usual, his thin, firm lips exhibited that bluish tinge which spoke of chronic, but moderate oxygen deprivation as well, so this would help him to take his planned prank further. Finally, his tongue was strangely a tad longer than that of most people, so this would aid him in his prank I know my digivice tends to cast spooky shadows and an eerie red light when active, so perhaps I can use that to accentuate my startling features some moreWith that in mind, he snuck over till he was pretty much out of sight of the group and then once he was much closer, he activated his digivice which led to it generating that same eerie red light due to the filter installed in its screen. This faint red light shone around the area and cast creepy looking shadows of his two digimon Taser, the Kokuwamon and Lego, the ShadowToyAgumon onto the tombstones which lay about the area and onto the mausoleum as well. Finally, while letting the light shine forth, he rose up from behind the bushes that were his cover till then, slowly while waving from side to side like some stereotypical zombie from a horror flick and without any warning, uttered a loud, maniacal cackle while holding his hands up and in front of him like a movie zombie or perhaps a movie vampire would with his long tongue hanging out fully once he was in complete view of both sides while transfixing both sides with a wide-eyed bloodshot stare. To add to this effect, he even quoted a line which one would only find in some of those corny old time horror flicks with zombies, or vampires, or mummies in a heavily exaggerated Romanian accent "WHO DARES TO DISTURB MY ANCIENT SLUMBER?!"Thanks to the eerie red light from his digivice illuminating him from below, his strange features were indeed accentuated, casting dark shadows here and there about his face and some onto his physician-scientist's outfit as well. It remained to be seen what the two parties would think of his antics, however. OOC:Appearance:

A slightly smug smile took over Katherine’s features when her peer complied.
“Well, that’s more like it! Pleased to meet you both. Name’s Katherine. My sister’s Akemi and the guy over there is Magnus.” A pause ensued as Leroy inquired them about their whereabouts. Since the two had already proven they weren’t aggressive, disclosing their business wasn’t something she minded doing.
“We’re searching for an egg. I’m positive there’s one here, and if there is, that means we gotta find it. Either that or the stork. Easy enough, ain’t it? Wanna help?”
A shrug followed the statement affirming they were digimons. “Not like I was trying to hide it, or that it matters, does it? Magnus seems to be the only human present here. And that’s totally fine. He’s yet to get used to us, so the more the merrier! I assume you’re brothers? That’s kinda cute.”
Would the twins take the request or not? That was up to them mostly. For now, the trio —or Akemi, more specifically— was a bit too busy panicking the recent appearance of somebody with less-than-pure intentions decided to startle them.
“Eek!” She shrieked, genuinely scared. “Wh-what’s that?”
Magnus was less than entertained at such showing. Being a pretty skeptical person himself, he just stared at the newcomer with a rather deadpan expression, all while the Numemon X hid behind him again.
“Act’s over, dude. You got somebody scared. Happy now?”
Katherine, on the other hand, stood where she was, next to Hiroshy and Leroy; she turned to face the newcomer, her expression being… less than amicable.
Scaring her sister was definitely a pretty bad way to get in her good graces, that was for sure.

"Neither Hiroshi or I have any trouble with humans. Though, like digimon, humans are also capable of cruelty. I guess my brother and I have just been fortunate so far to only deal with digimon opponents so far in that regard." Leroy said. Hiroshi wasn't surprised by his twin's intelligence since the only time he showed a lack of it was in battle. Oh well no one was perfect.
"An egg? Is it a digiegg? If that's the case, why would it be here? A cemetery is quite an odd place for such a thing." Hiroshi said scratching his head in confusion. He looked at Leroy and noticed his twin had an equally confused look on his face.
A shriek from the disguised Numemon X as well as Leroy sniffing briefly before looking behind them caused Hiroshi to look too. "Nice try. I know you're very much alive, human, so drop the act." Leroy said crossing his arms with an annoyed look on his face. Somehow his annoyed look in his human disguise made him look more imposing than as a digimon but Hiroshi had no idea how that was possible.

Faustein looked about to see the results of his impromptu prank attempt, but the results were not quite what he expected, well mostly not that is. Apparently one of the group had been scared and had his behind her male companion, while what seemed like her twin was now looking at him with a rather hostile expression Well, this is a surprise. Oh well, I suppose my technique still needs some work.As if that was not enough, the other party which was a duo of individuals actually called him out on his prank, remarking about how it was apparent that he was very much alive. The one member of this duo that had called him out also had an annoyed expression on his face. So, seeing as how his attempt had failed, Faustein deactivated his digivice and then stepped out of the bushes while calmly brushing off some of the leaves from his outfit. First he addressed the young man with the twins and his party in general as well "I suppose so, but then, if she is truly THAT terrified of such scares, why come out in a desolate and spooky locale such as this graveyard in the first place to search for your target? That too at such a late hour? Surely, there are other times of the day and other places out in the city which are FAR more comforting, entertaining, and amenable to one's exploration."He asked with a quizzical expression since he had not really heard or paid attention to the details of their conversation as he had been busy planning his prank, but then realized it would probably not be smart to upset these two parties considering they outnumbered him and as far as he knew at the moment, totally unknown variables. So, he directed an apology at the twin girls and their male companion as well as the two other males standing nearby "That said, I can see that I have upset you all greatly, so I do sincerely apologize for that misstep. I will not repeat that again in the future."He said in a genuinely contrite tone and bowed his head towards each party in turn to hopefully emphasize his apologetic mindset. Then, he turned towards the other pair, the one that had called him out and was now pretty much glaring at him. One of them seemed to be some sort of stereotypical nerd and the other appeared to be some kind of hoodlum. "Those are some keen senses you have there, by the way. Quite impressive, indeed."With that, he fell silent and waited to see what the two parties would do now that he had apologized, but just in case, he did keep his digivice at the ready to call forth Taser and Lego, in the event that they did try to attack him in retaliation. His voice, if they were paying attention was a rich, baritone but somehow melodious, relaxed voice which was even throughout his remarks. Now that he had stepped out completely, his physician-scientist's outfit was revealed for all to behold as well. OOC:Appearance:

Indeed, humans could be capable of the most despicable acts; species didn’t mean a lot when it came to being able to be mean to others, even though that was a topic for another occasion. Onto the matter at hand…
Katherine shrugged at Hiroshi’s question. “Beats me. I just know there’s an egg here, and that we gotta find it because it’s very important. The ‘why’ is none of my concern, even though I guess I could ask the digimon that hatches from it how they ended as an egg in the Human World. But until then, it’s a pretty big question mark.”
Things with the second visitor were far more conflictive, however. If his goal was to be as obnoxious as possible, then he had accomplished it pretty handily.
“I could give you an answer, but will settle with telling you that’s none of your business. Just because we’re here doesn’t mean we’d appreciate a prank like that one.”
At least that bit of time served for Akemi to settle down a bit, and for the weird man to pronounce his apology. Katherine stared, Magnus shrugged, and Akemi ultimately averted her gaze from the man.
“Sure. Whatever. As long as you don’t try anything like that again.”
In the end, the older twin gave one final look at the locked door before reaching out to her hair and unlodging a hairpin. She began to quickly work on the lock until, ultimately, it clicked and opened.
“Well, that was easy enough.” Without adding much, she headed into the building, Magnus and Akemi in tow.

"No duh, digimon tend to have more acute senses then humans." Leroy said to the white haired stranger as he crossed his arms and rolled his eyes. So far the disguised Shoutmon was relatively chill and Hiroshi would only hope it would stay that way. Yet, with his younger brother's temper mixed with his impulsiveness, Hiroshi learned not to hold his breath.
'And to think, he used to be a shy digimon back when we were Babydmon.' Hiroshi thought with a brief shake of his head as he turned to Katherine while she was picking the lock and said "Are you sure you should be breaking into property that doesn't belong to you? I know Leroy and myself are hardly perfectly behaved but even I think breaking into something in a cemetery is inviting trouble."
"Come on, big bro. If there is an egg in there, how do you know the hatchling can get out on its own and since when did you act like a goody two shoes as humans would put it." Leroy said with amusement in his voice before he continued "Hiroshi, don't tell me your scared that the humans would get mad or is it because you think ghosts will get you?"
Hiroshi responded with a quick jab to his smirking twin shoulder and then said "Stop acting like an overconfident ass, Leroy."

"Fair enough."
Faustein had said when Leroy had pointed out that Digimon had senses that were far superior to those of humans. Then, he had fallen silent and observed and listened to the group member's interactions. Interestingly enough, soon after the only other human in the group had declined to answer his query about their reason for being in the graveyard at such a late hour, one of his two partners, the wilder looking of the two that is, had divulged it anyway
And his partner reveals the reason anyway, this lot clearly do not have their act together, I see. An egg? In a mausoleum in the middle of a graveyard no less? Well that's certainly entertaining. I can feel my curiosity rising now.
Faustein thought silently with his usual impassive, inscrutable expression on his face as he observed further. Then, one of the two other twins which were apparently digimon in disguises as well spoke up as one of the two girls started to pick the lock on the mausoleum door and successfully broke in. Faustein listened as that twin, aka the one who looked like a stereotypical cartoon nerd questioned the rectitude of the girl's breaking and entering, only to be interrupted by his more rambunctious twin who called him out for being a coward and earned a chastising jab in return.
"I do wonder what sort of digimon it could be, to have taken root here in such a desolate, dreary place as a graveyard. Perhaps one of the Undead or Ghost types?"
Faustein mused aloud idly as he watched the girls and their companion head inside along with the two male twins. As he waited, he turned to the two twins and addressed them with a mildly curious expression on his face now
"Hiroshi and Leroy, eh? Those are some unique names you two have there. Did you both assign those to yourselves?"

One last question flew in Katherine’s direction. Was it really okay for them to defile an ancient mausoleum, all while searching for an egg? That was a pretty good question, even though its answer was more than obvious.
“I mean, I’m not gonna leave an unborn digimon on their own in the cold of night, y’know? That’d be pretty heartless, especially if the cost is paying a visit to somebody who’s… not alive enough to complain. Would rather focus on living individuals.”
It wasn’t like she’d burn a lot of time justifying her actions to somebody who was lukewarm about it. If they didn’t want to go in, they were more than free to leave. Nothing that prevented them from doing so.
With the door cracked open, the disguised Shakomon led the way, Magnus went second and Akemi third. Thankfully, they had brought enough illumination for the descent to not happen in utter darkness.
What would the others do? Considering that none had done anything concise to either enter or leave, they should probably decide that pretty soon.

To the white haired human's question Leroy answered "We've had those names longer than I or my brother can remember. Maybe we the names were assigned to us shortly after birth, who knows."
Meanwhile, Hiroshi was thinking of how strange it was for an egg to appear in an old mausoleum and voiced it by saying "I'm sorry if I came off as heartless but you have to admit how strange it is for an egg to appear in not just the Human World but one of their mausoleums to boot."
Noticing his twin was heading into the mausoleum, Leroy trotted in after his brother. "It sure is dark in here. Hiroshi, maybe we should deactivate our holosuits and use our fire abilities to light the way since we seem to be breaking in anyway."
Nodding in agreement at his twins words and figuring they were out of sight of the general human population, they both deactivated their holosuits revealing what looked like a scaley Cutemon with a short red mohawk and a tail the same size and shape as his brother. The other twin appeared to be a Shoutmon with red and white fur covering his body.
Hoping that nothing would happen to anger Leroy both twins created fire in their palms and used it to light the way.

"I see, that is most intriguing indeed. Digimon truly are some rather mysterious entities."
Faustein mused aloud in response to Leroy's response and then listened silently as the digimon in disguise calling herself Katherine remarked about how she was not too concerned about offending the dead, but instead would focus on the living instead, which in this case meant the egg that her party had come to search for in the graveyard. To that, Leroy's twin aka Hiroshi had remarked that it was still rather strange for a digimon egg to be found not only in the Human World of all places, but a graveyard.
"It is quite fortuitous that neither DATS nor anyone else with ill intent has found this egg."
After that, Faustein watched as Hiroshi and Leroy conversed for a while and then entered the mausoleum. So, he did the same and entered it after them as his curiosity about the egg would not let him rest easy until he encountered it. He called out one of his two twin digimon, the one in this case being "Taser" the "Kokuwamon" to provide light for himself as he headed further and further into the mausoleum with the others.
Somewhere along the way, he also called out "Lego" which was his "ShadowToyAgumon" and instructed it to act as the rearguard unit. This was done so that he would have "Taser" to protect him from any incoming threats from the front while "Lego" could watch out from any threats coming from behind.
