Luna and Dust both made their way over to the bike, LJ stepping up on the ToyAgumon seemed to make them back off a bit in a bit of fear. Then remember they had the number advantage and start trying to bust through again. But that idea was quickly negated as the one in the lead was quickly wrapped in some sticky net, pulling them to the ground as they struggled against the web. "Screw it, cut our losses." One of the free ToyAgumon said as he let go of the bike and ran off in another direction away from everyone else. "Sorry man, I'll see you at the Village of beginnings" The second one shouted as he also let the bike go, relinquishing it to Dante as they ran off. "You JERKS, THE QUEEN SAID LEAVE NO ONE BEHIND."
Dust saw the one run off to the side, holding his hand up he created a fireball in his hand real quick aiming down at one of the running ToyAgumon. "Dust just let them go, it ain't worth it." Luna asked looking down at the Impmon, he looked her in the eye for a moment before sighing letting the fire in his hand vanish as he let his hand fall limp, watching the ToyAgumon run off. At least they had the one Wormmon caught.
Luna stepped up to them real quick with her hands on her hips. "Now why pray tell are you stealing my bike? This is the second time this has happened." Luna said without fully thinking.
"Wait, you got your bike stolen before?" Dust raised an eyebrow at this, she didn't mention it. Luna looked very embarrassed for a moment. "That's uhh, not Important now lets just focus on this guy."
"I'll never tell you the location of my queen, not even through torture."
"We didn't as-"
"Alright fine please don't hurt me she's over to the west about two hills over, she told me to steal your bike please don't hurt me."
Wow, this digimon was like, really wimpy. "Uhh, O.K? Wonder why she wanted to steal my bike."
Dust had a bad thought, keeping it to himself he just let out a small sigh. "Maybe we should ignore this? I mean we got the bike so no harm." Luna seemed to disagree with him. "We should still check it out, can't just let people rob others Dust." Maybe the others here could help break this small stalemate.

LJ was surprised on how well the glare he used worked and thought 'Looks like Pops' glare was enough though I'm no where near as intimidating as I heard he was as a rookie.' The thoughts of Lothar once being a muscular Elecmon while in comparison he was an ordinary Elecmon except purple and red with brown eyes and magic of some kind still laying dormant with in him.
Looking down at the ToyAgumon that Wormmon caught he overheard Luna mentioning having her bike stolen before but, to be fair, with large ears like his he could probably of heard it if Luna had whispered it. It didn't matter now that Luna had her bike back since the other two ToyAgumon had ran off.
When the ToyAgumon sang like a proverbial bird about the location of his queen LJ couldn't help but smirk at the digimon's cowardice. "We could go talk to their queen and let her know what her subjects were up to and let her deal with them accordingly. If she is a good ruler I doubt she will stand for such behavior from her subjects."

The ToyAgumon's plot to make free with Luna's bike had gone awry. Wormmon's Sticky Net ensnared one of the thieves, and the other two start fleeing. One of them mentions something about a Queen. Dante returns the bike to Luna, who is understandably peeved at the thief. Apparently, this isn't the first time her bike was stolen. Wormmon licks his teeth and cackles as he rubs his front legs together.
"Looks like it's time for some good old fashioned torture, I mean, interrogation."
Much to the chagrin of Wormy, the ToyAgumon caught in his net gave up the information without the need to persuade him. Wormmon frowns as he kicks some dirt in frustration.
"Easy, little buddy. You seem disappointed. The important thing is we got Luna's bike back."
Luna and LJ want to confront this Queen over what happened, but Dust seems hesitant to press the matter further. Dante strokes his hairy chin as he ponders the situation.
"Why did this Queen send the thieves? I don't think we should walk in there unprepared. We could fall into a trap." "Oh, you mean like take a more stealthy approach? I thought I was the paranoid one." "I'm just trying to stay one step ahead. We could disguise ourselves. I just think we should use caution. Like Dust said, We got the bike back." "Well, I am royalty, so the Queen has to treat me with the utmost respect. I'm with LJ on this one." "I don't think your self imposed title of Worm King gives you any real prestige." "You are the one who wanted to be sneaky. We'll say you are my subjects. Dante, you can continue to be my manservant, haha!" "I hope you are not a jerk on your big date, coming up."

Oh right that was something Wormmon liked to do, either that or at least joked that he like to do the whole torture thing but Luna couldn't recall any time. Dust did but that mostly involved dunking other digimon's heads in toilets' and he didn't think that was torture more just probably annoying. Still LJ said his piece on the subject, talking was something Dust usually tried to do but. "Though from what they said she gave the order, I can't imagine she'd be up for a chat if she tried to rob us before we even got to see her." Dust pointed out, the ToyAgumon tried for a second to look like he wasn't gonna say more, but Dust barely looked at him before he just nodded along with what Dust said.
Dante and Wormmon said theirs as well, Dante seemed to agree with Dust but the self titled worm king agreed with LJ and Luna. "Who knows, her title of queen might just be as self imposed as Wormmons." Dust pointed out to Dante, queen of the mainframe hills didn't seem like it was a good title to have, for all they know they're dealing with a false monarch.
Luna raised her fist in the air with a smile. "Welp, that's three to two, so it checks out that we go investigate." Even though he still had a few issues on his mind on all this Dust gave a small shrug and decided to go along with it. "C'mon Dust it'll be fine, worse case scenario we just high tail it outta there, I mean we have a motorcycle." She tried her best to put the small Impmon's nerves at ease, he just wanted to be catious.
"I'll be fine just, if something does end up going wrong be careful, I'm not as strong as I used to be." He clenched his fist feeling the dark power well up inside himself, still nowhere near what he used to be able to use but it was something at least.
Luna just smiled. "Like I said it'll be fine, you don't hafta protect me, I can handle myself. Plus we got these three to help out." Luna added with a smile.
"I suppose, if we all go together that'd be the safer option, if you don't mind. I wouldn't want to put anyone out." Dust mentioned giving them an option to opt out, after all he had no idea what was coming next.

"Makes me wonder why this queen would want to steal a motorcycle if that was her intention all along. Surely she could likely buy her own if she really wanted one." LJ said trying to contemplate the reason for such an act. Could she have something against Luna?
LJ then walked up to the ToyAgumon and bent down to eye level with the tied up digimon until his brown eyes locked with their prisoner before he asked "Alright pal, why does your queen want to cause Luna trouble?" LJ's brown eyes began glowing light purple and, deciding to put on a performance that would likely make Mandrake proud, then smiled and said "I'm only asking because I don't want to resort to using the magic I inherited from my Wizardmon father. Unless you wouldn't mind being a toad for a while that is." Sure it was a bluff since he had yet to find out what magic power he possessed but he was counting on the tied up digimon's cowardice to get the information he wanted.

The group speculates further about the Queen and her intentions. LJ makes a good point; why would she target Luna's motorcycle if she could buy her own? Dust questions the validity of the Queen's title. Why would Mainframe Hills have a monarch? Luna mentions that there are three of them who want to investigate against Dust and Dante who seem resistant.
"I'm not against investigating, I just think we shouldn't walk right in and confront the Queen."
Dante feels his body start to lock in place. His heartrate intensifies as he recalls similar events. Dante and Dust doing literally anything always seemed to end in a life or death battle and a ruined jacket. Dust mentions that he isn't as strong as before, which makes Dante worry more. Against his better judgement, Dante agrees to go along.
"I don't like where this is going, but there are safety in numbers."
LJ intimidates the captured ToyAgumon, threatening to use magic and turn him into a toad if he doesn't explain what the Queen wants with Luna's bike. Intimidating the captive with magic brings a smile to Wormmon's mug.
"Ya, that's right! And if you don't mind being a toad, I'll take you to flush town. It's the only way to get the truth."
Dante rolls his eyes in frustration, as he had long ago given up correcting Wormmon. Not only did torture prove to give false confessions, but Wormmon's idea of torture was much more juvenile than in the movies.
"You would have been a great bully in an 80's movie." "Ooh, now I want spikey blonde hair. To the hair salon!"

Lj brought up the point of her buying her own, either that or having something against Luna. "Knowing our luck it's something stupid, like the color or something." He and Luna had surprisingly bad luck when it came to random digimon messing up their day, if Dust cared for stuff like that he might assume it was Karma for his past like. Though that wouldn't explain why it's affecting Luna too. Dante agreed to go along as well, so it was only Dust who didn't fully want to go. "The second something looks dicey we bail, got it Luna?" That extended to everyone else as well, Dust didn't want to put Dante in anymore harms way nor someone he just met.
"Don't worry careful is my middle name... I don't have a last name though but. You know what I mean." Luna promised, she wasn't about to get in trouble just as she met Dust again, though knowing her luck she probably was gonna get into trouble.
Deciding to get into the whole threaten the digimon thing LJ and Wormmon were doing Dust decided to do it a bit more forcefully. "Just talk, we don't want to do anything to you." As Dust said this he held his hand up creating a fireball at his fingertip. His eyes were narrow and serious.
Luna decided to do it as well cracking her knuckles. "I dunno Dust, I'm feeling like sending him to meet the people in Luminas, think a punch will send em there?" All of these were just threats though, she had no worries that none of them, well cept maybe Wormmon, would follow through with it.
The ToyAgumon didn't respond for a moment, no his eyes were wide and there wasn't any pupil in there, Luna reached her foot out and pushed the digimon, who seemed to regain consciousness. "Oh I'm sorry, I fainted after the first threat." The one from LJ, this digimon really was a huge coward. "She's over the hill and she said she wanted a ride so we went to get her one and yours was the first one we saw. Please don't hurt me I bruise easy and make very unflattering noises when assaulted." Luna and Dust did not doubt that.

Yes stealing something because of color would indeed be a stupid reason. "Let's just hope that this queen isn't going to be too much of a problem because if she is strong this could get messy real fast and I haven't been a rookie for very long."
LJ wasn't the only one to get in on threatening ToyAgumon as Wormmon, Dust, and even Luna got in on the act but what LJ found weird was that the cowardly digimon wasn't responding. It was soon discovered why as it appeared as if ToyAgumon fainted when he threatened to turn him into a toad. 'Man this guy is more cowardly than I thought he was. Shame he doesn't know that I can't turn him into a toad but I'm not about to tell him it was merely a bluff.' LJ thought as the coward gave away his queen's location. "Well guys, now that we have a location we should get moving. I don't know about you but I'm curious to know this queen's motives." LJ said ready to move.

Even though the ToyAgumon revealed that the Queen had ordered them to steal the bike, they did not know a motive. LJ's intimidation tactics were a little too effective, causing ToyAgumon to faint. They awake after a little kick from Luna.
"It seems your brand of interrogation is not needed, Wormmon. This thief is too much of a coward." "Aww. I've always wanted to try Chinese water torture. Or we could strap them to a chair and make them watch bad wrestling matches." "The horror."
The ToyAgumon goes on to reveal that this wasn't a personal vendetta, but rather the Queen needed transportation and Luna's motorbike was the first suitable vehicle.
"Well, why didn't you just ask?! I'm sure Luna would have given her a ride. Now I want to give this Queen of yours a piece of my mind." Dante is noticeably more grumpy since the three ToyAgumon attempted to steal Luna's bike. It didn't help that Wormmon had dragged him out here to basically stare at clouds.
"Do you think he's telling the truth?" "I'm not saying we should take his word for it, but he's probably too much of a coward to not cooperate." In spite of Dust's protests, it seems they would find this Queen. Maybe there was more going on than they realized.
"I wonder what the Queen looks like. Do you think she will give us a free buffet for returning ToyAgumon to her?" "Not likely, but I wouldn't mind that."

Lj brought up the idea that the queen might be strong, which was Dust's main concern to begin with, then again considering these were just ToyAgumon and one of them was this afraid of a few threats he didn't imagine them leading anything close to an army. Then Wormmon's brand of torture came up, ahh yes this was just the Wormmon that Dust remembered. "Maybe some other time Wormmon." Hopefully not but he could at least lie and pretend Wormmon could do it.
With the whole ride thing Luna just nodded. "Yeah, I give rides out all the time to little kids, also some big kids. I'm sure a queen is at least within that range." Considering how they seemed to act Luna was probably right about them being like a kid.
Dust also had a few choice words for the queen. "Same Dante, if she is a queen using her powers like that is just wrong." Using minions to rob some digimon was pretty low, how she thought she'd get away with it with three ToyAgumon was even more weird.
"My Queen is the most beautiful in all the lands, a Digimon unlike any other digimon I have ever seen. Once I am returned to her she will most likely weep for joy." Dust and Luna both highly doubted that.
Luna quickly hopped on her bike. "Alrighty then over the hill we go, don't worry I won't go too fast. I'd offer rides but I don't think we'd all fit on it." It was a 1 person vehicle that at max could also maybe fit Dust as well sometimes.
Dust quickly picked up the ToyAgumon who struggled a bit before realizing Dust was a LOT stronger then him and just giving up. Then the two made their way over the hill assuming the others would follow.

Wormmon and Dante discussing methods to further torture ToyAgumon made LJ smirk. There was something about the self proclaimed 'Worm King' that amused the young purple Elecmon. Then Luna mentioned that the queen may be a kid and that got his attention. "Let's just hope she is a kid then she might be more manageable to deal with when we talk to her." LJ said as he watched Luna get on her bike and Dust picked up ToyAgumon,
Good thing it was just a short distance away which made LJ contemplate getting a vehicle of his own like his parents did. As he dropped to run on all fours so he could move at full speed he also thought 'Pops, I hope when I digivolve I take more after you in height because I don't know how Dad manages running as short as he is.' Sure he loved both his parents but he had a hard time picturing taking after Mandrake in height and being taken seriously seeing as his Wizardmon father sometimes was teased for being short. Then he followed Dust and Luna over the hill.

The captured ToyAgumon mentions how happy the Queen will be when he returns. Luna says she offers rides on her bike to kids, and maybe this Queen is a kid as well. Dust and Dante both agree that a Queen using her powers to order her subjects to steal a motorbike is wrong. Wormmon would have to hold off on his brand of interrogation for now.
"I guess we will just have to see for ourselves what this Queen is all about. I'm still hoping this is somehow a misunderstanding, an act of desperation and not malicious."
Luna and Dust make their way over the hill, while LJ would be running on all fours. Even if the purple Elecmon couldn't keep up with a motorbike, they would without a doubt have no trouble at all outpacing a Wormmon. The Worm King looks up at Dante with a sinister smirk.
"Okay, you can Digivolve, but no showing off."
Wormmon forms a cocoon out of silk. Beams of light break out from the cocoon, and Stingmon is revealed. Dante climbs onto Stingmon's back, and the King of Sting jets off into the air. Dante struggles to hold on as Stingmon zooms across the sky, executing loops and sharp turns rather than traveling as the crow flies and heading straight there. Stingmon lands next to Dust and Luna, and Dante lets go, taking a moment to regain his balance.
"Woo! Flying is so awesome." "I think I'm going to be sick."

As they went over the hills Luna's sensitive ears picked up something that the group probably couldn't hear, straining her ears for a bit she listened closely to what the noise could be. Sounded like a lot of yelling and a bit of exhaustion coming from nearby. Luna parked her bike real quick startling Dust. "What's up Luna, Hear something?"
The rest of the group arrived near her as she listened for what that noise could be. "I hear something, it's getting closer." Luna mentioned stepping off her bike as she looked in the direction the noise came from. Slowly the others would be able to hear the voice as well. Sounded light and girly.
"GET THESE THINGS AWAY FROM MEE!" Was pretty clear, from the hill Luna saw what seemed to be a human girl running down the hill towards them, she had a very stupid looking crown on her head and long black hair. She also seemed to be wearing a weird mismatched dress. When she saw the group she just yelled. "Oh thank goodness!"
Luna was surprised when she ran up to the Lekismon and ran behind her, hiding from what she was running from. "Please, I don't care who you are. Anyone is better then those things!"
Luna looked at Dust confused, but before she could say anything the ToyAgumon spoke out. "MY QUEEN!" He made motions to grab her but Dust instead just held him down tighter.
Luna looked behind her at the girl before asking. "What are you running from?" The girl just pointed in the direction she came from, which seemed to be a running group of lego blocks.
Though that was wrong as it was a group of 10 Toy Agumon rushing down the hill, all yelling something about saving their queen. Luna put her fists up and so did Dust. "I knew we weren't getting out of this without a fight."
"Can't you stop them, you're their 'Queen' Right?" to that the so called queen just shook her head. "They don't listen to anything I say, just in one ear out the other then they do whatever!" Well that sounded pretty annoying.

LJ soon caught up and stood back on his back legs again as he approached the pair panting. Luna had apparently heard something and his ears began to twitch as he also tuned into the sound. Soon a human girl, the queen apparently, came up to them as it seemed that she wanted nothing to do with the ToyAgumon around her. "With how these guys are it explains why she wanted the motorcycle." LJ said as he readied himself for the confrontation that was fast coming as ten ToyAgumon were fast approaching. Looking back at the human girl, he said "Don't worry ma'am, I'm sure between us we can handle ten of these annoying pests."
He then faced the oncoming ToyAgumon and dropped to all fours light blue flames appearing at the tips of his nine quill like tails. "You dudes need to leave this girl alone. Badda Boom!" With that he released the flames sending them in the ToyAgumon's direction hoping they were just as cowardly as the last group.
OOC: Badda Boom: Pale blue flames come up from his quill like tails before they are launched.

Dante couldn't hear it up in the sky, but Luna could hear something. To their surprise, a human woman with dark hair wearing a crown comes running up to them. It seems as though this is the Queen, and ToyAgumon confirms it. The Queen is running from a horde of ToyAgumon.
"These are your subjects? They seem a bit overzealous." "I would never let my lackeys act like this. Ignoring orders is unaccepta-bable." "You're not exactly known for following orders." "You're not the boss of me, Dante, haha."
LJ starts things off with a Bada Boom, launching flames towards the horde. Stingmon takes up a defensive stance.
"Ho ya! It's not often I fight Rookies in my Champion form, but with the numbers game, I don't feel bad about whooping some butt."
Stingmon blocks a strike from one of the ToyAgumon and picks them up by the arm. The King of Sting lands a few punches to the chest before throwing the mon back towards the others. Another lands a projectile attack, but it hardly phases the Champion. Stingmon goes for a roundhouse kick towards the one who attacked him.
"Don't get overconfident, Stingmon. Even you can run out of stamina."
Dante is a bit confused why the Queen is being chased by her own subjects. Questioning the Queen would have to wait until they deal with the hostile ToyAgumon.
