Dust sat in the sidecar of the Motorcycle Luna and him were riding, he was just in his Impmon form with his legs up against the front of where he was sitting with his arms behind his head, eyes closed as he let out a small sigh. "So, we're stuck now?" He asked not even having to look at the condition of the Motorcycle, it was pretty clear to him that this whole thing was probably a bit of a bust at the moment considering they hadn't moved in a bit.
Luna had her hands on the throttle but nothing was happening. "Yup." The Lekismon said a bit sheepishly while removing her hands from the motorcycle. "So uhh, guess we're gonna walk back?" She asked jumping off from the bike and onto the ground right below her.
"Guess so, nothing else we can do really. Better take it with us just in case though." Dust jumped from his seat over to the side as Luna grabbed and picked up the bike over her head, Dust probably could've as well but seeing as she was taller it was probably better to let her deal with this.
"You know it probably broke because you won't stop jumping it off stuff, right? That is really bad for a vehicle." Dust chastised for a moment as he walked next to the Lekismon.
"Heh, totally worth it." She had absolutely no regrets about any of that, which was honestly fair.

Other than a little vehicle trouble, everything seemed a-ok for the duo at the moment! Sure, they were in stuck in the jungle, but other than the heat and humidity, and all the annoying vegetation, and the bunch of tiny skeletons that were scattered about the ground, everything seemed just hunky-dory!
Well... maybe not the skeletons part. Sure was weird seeing skeletons though, considering... Digimon. But surely that couldn't mean anything important, right? Maybe they were just incredibly small, comatose boney Digimon like SkullSatamon, SkullGreymon, and SkullWhatevermon. You know, all the kind of creatures that someone way unfunnier than they think they are would call Bones McJones.
Other than the completely normal and perfectly not-unsettling atmosphere, there was one thing of interest to anyone willing to have make a perception check over -3. Rustling through the local vegetation, was an Agumon in a labcoat that was crawling along the ground, very slowly. If one cared to look, they would find a good chunk of his left torso completely missing, with scorch marks around the edges of his injury, kind of like a hot lance or a laser beam went right through the poor Digimon.
Oh yeah, and the was one of those Agumon in a labcoat, so he was probably some kind of a big deal or something. If he weren't crawling on the ground, dying, at least.

Well this wouldn't be too bad now would it, just a nice stroll through the swamp. It had been a while since the two of them had walked around a place together after all, maybe they could take this moment to talk about the clinic and stuff going on and... Oh that was a lot of tiny skeletons that were laying around huh.
"Dust..." Luna stopped for a moment placing the motorcycle on the ground looking over at her companion.
"Yeah I see them, it's a bit unsettling. But digimon don't leave bones I think and I... Yeah hopefully it's just some skeleton digimon playing a prank." There was always the chance it was a human who left those but that was something he didn't even really want to mention at the moment.
Once the rustling came from the vegetation nearby Dust and Luna were instantly on their guard, Luna with her fists raised and Dust holding a fireball ontop one finger, though it was quickly revealed that this noise was from someone who didn't need a butt kicking but one that had probably already had one.
"Oh my goodness, hang on!" Luna rushed over to the digimon followed quickly by Dust. Checking on the Agumon it was pretty clear they were in a very rough shape. "Alright, together Dust." Luna said holding her hands out for a moment before letting a ring of energy surround her and the Agumon. "Healing field." That would start to undo some of the damage but it wouldn't be too much by itself.
Thankfully Dust had been keeping up his studies in healing. "Alright, just focus and. Heal Aid." Dust muttered holding his hands out to the Agumon, a similar albeit weaker healing energy would come from the Impmon's gloved hands surrounding and restoring the Agumon alongside Luna's.

Luna and Dust's quick response in healing certainly made a difference for the poor Agumon Hakase. Initially in too much pain to even speak, this issue was thankfully alleviated as his eyes opened and focused on his saviors. "My, oh my..." He muttered in a polite, but obviously pained voice. "I don't know if this is one of the worst days of my life... or one of my most fortunate..." He let out a chuckle but it was immediately cut off by the agony of having a large chunk of himself missing from his side. He pressed his hand to his wound, and sent a warm light into it. Eventually, the missing chunk of his body began to reform, albeit, the data of that spot was scattered and blurry. Patchwork at best.
The Agumon Hakase sat up as he bowed his head towards the pair. "Ironic, though... A doctor needing someone else to heal him..." He rubbed the patchy mess of data on his torso and immediately flinched in pain. "Shouldn't have done that just now... If I were my own patient I'd be quite cross with myself..." He looked up at the treetops around as if he noticing something only he could see, before turning back towards the pair.
"Well... I suppose introductions are in order. Dr. Agu Cromm, at your service. I run a small clinic deep in the jungle for the more... uncivilized Digimon that prefer the more... uncivilized lifestyle compared to places like Whitewater," He gave a brief wave. "And a Lekismon and Impmon duo, both with healing capabilities... I suppose if you want to introduce yourself, you may, but it's not necessary. It's nice to meet you."

Thankfully their combined abilities seemed to do the trick, at least to get them back on their feet. "Try not to talk, I should be able to- huh?" Luna was going to try and use another one of her abilities but it would seem that the Agumon in question had already started on that himself, a warm light added to his own wound causing his missing chunk to grow back, though it was still a bit messed up it was definitely better than the alternative. "Oh, you're a healer!" That wasn't something she expected to see today! Usually she was the random healer in the middle of nowhere not the other way around.
Though he then decided to rub the part that was damaged, before either Luna or Dust could mention how much of a bad idea that was from prior experience, they already seemed to realize it with the sharp amount of pain that came from said injury. "Yeah, best to try and not touch it till it can be fully mended." Dust mentioned before catching him looking up towards the treetops, on reaction Dust started to as well but he didn't really notice anything with just a glance.
"A pleasure to meet you, My name is Luna and this is my partner Dust, we run a small clinic over in Rosewood. I suppose it is a bit odd to see an Impmon who can heal, I've been showing him how. He's made a lot of progress." Luna said in her typical friendly manner, after all she had no reason not to trust them for the moment.
"Do you know what happened here? All these bones and your injuries. Did someone attack you?" While he wanted to share Luna's more laid back and happy approach it was pretty clear that something was up, part of him wanted to switch back to Mega just in case but best wait and hear what went down first.

Dr. Cromm took a deep breath, nodding along as Luna and Dust spoke to him. Then he grunted in response to Dust's inquiries. "Yes, I suppose I should get straight to the point..." He muttered, letting out a groan of pain as he started to walk deeper into the jungle as he gestured for the pair to follow him. "I made these skeletons myself, actually. It's not typically a Digimon thing, but it serves as a warning for the younger, less-experienced Digimon in this neck of the jungle..."
He let out a soft groan before continuing. "I wasn't alive when it happened, but apparently, a long while ago, a Greymon was slain by some terrifying, demonic savage, and had most of their data loaded, leaving behind a hollow shell of a digital frame. Then one day, many years later, that shell began to move all on its own, evolving into SkullGreymon. And ever since then it has been terrorizing the local Digimon here, brutalizing and loading their data like some kind of mindless beast."
The Agumon Hakase took the time to stop, clutching his side and leaning on a tree. "SkullGreymon had attacked my clinic. I ran to find help from literally anyone, but got injured in the process... I don't know how much time has passed since then. My patients are probably all dead and loaded by now, and my clinic completely destroyed, but I have to get back, just in case..."

"You made these?" Dust had to admit it was pretty impressive, for a moment the two of them had actually thought they were real. Though thankfully the fact that digimon do not have bones and such clued him in a lot faster than normal Walking after the duo listened in on the reason behind this whole thing.
A demonic savage terrorizing the local digimon, Dust paused for a moment in thought. It couldn't of been him right? He had to admit that description fit him pretty well as he was back then but there were a lot of digimon like that, Dust couldn't assume it was him. "That's awful, probably for the best to try and get some sort of warning out then." Thankfully they hadn't run into that digimon while around here before.
"You're in no condition to go anywhere, We'll go in your place." Dust instantly offered without any hesitation.
"Beat me to it, we're pretty strong so we should be able to handle this mon, either that or at least drive it away for now. Even if there's a chance, they're all gone we still have to try!" Luna punched her fist into her open palm, she was ready for a fight and didn't seem scared in the slightest.
"Even if all we can do is avenge them, we still gotta try just in case." Hopefully the good doctor would accept their help, since he was probably pretty key in finding out just where the clinic is!

"I appreciate the gesture, but..." After a long groan, the Agumon Hakase took a deep breath, centered himself, and stood up straight. "I'm tougher than I look. I may not have all kinds of rumors going about me, unlike you two, but I'd be a terrible doctor if I were too weak to help anyone! Besides, time is of the essence, and without me you could lose your way. So we'll just have to go together, I'm afraid!" The Agumon Hakase gave the pair a confident smile. Maybe Luna and Dust's confidence was rubbing off on him. Or maybe the writer was planning on introducing this NPC in the hopes that you connect with him some way, only for him to be brutally murdered by the big bad to make him seem that much scarier or something.
Dr. Cromm would then begin to lead the way through some thick vegetation, claiming that it was some kind of a shortcut. Nothing of interest would happen, unless Luna and Dust decided to make it interesting. Either way, they would be approaching Dr. Cromm's clinic soon. If they had any final questions to ask of him, regarding SkullGreymon, or literally anything else, now was the time!

Oh thank goodness he was coming with; Luna didn't want to mention it in the heat of the moment but there was a decent chance she was going to get super lost on her way there. "Alright, just don't push yourself too much. After all the more help the better in cases like this." They didn't know what they were up against after all, best be prepared for any situation.
"Lead the way." Dust was fine with this also, while he was a bit worried even in the worst-case scenario, he trusted that Luna and him could handle this. Even Moreso with another digimon providing assistance.
Walking through the vegetation Dust followed quietly while Luna tried to think of something to ask, it would be best if they could get some advantage to this situation. "So, when they attacked your clinic. Did you happen to see how they fought?" Luna decided to ask, depending on his answer would probably decide which one led the fight between her and Dust, given she was more long range and he was more close ranged when it came to stuff like combat.

With Dr. Cromm leading the way, the trip wouldn't take too long, so hopefully Luna's question was a worthy one. Cromm shook his head and growled. "As far as I know it's just a mindless beast. Hunts down the weakest-looking target. After I was injured I would have been done for, if it weren't for the fact that I was in a clinic, and there were others more injured than I was... I set up this clinic to save lives and yet..." The injury seemed to throb as he leaned onto a tree holding his injured side. "And yet it was only because of their sacrifice that I ended up living... Life is twisted, sometimes.
"I ran away fairly quickly, so I didn't get a good look at its fighting style, not that anyone put up much of a fight. But all its got are its bone body and the missile on its back. And it doesn't tend to leave behind survivors, so I can't really tell you what kind of attacks it from examining injuries... Sorry if that isn't much help..."
The group had finally arrived at the clinic, a small wooden hut with what looked like straw roofing. That was on fire in some spots. Scorch marks littered the area, the earth torn up by several large claw marks covering the ground, as if something large has scraped their claws into the ground in order to pick something up off the ground... like perhaps a fleeing patient.
"It looks like it already moved on. But it could come back if it senses us, so stay on your guard. I'm going to see what medical supplies I can still salvage. And also be indoors if it stops by again." He quickly ran into the clinic quickly closing the door behind him.
After that, there wouldn't be much to do other than stay outside and look around. If either Luna or Dust were the types to notice, they would find several massive skeletal footprints around the area... yet none of them seemed to lead away from the clinic. So SkullGreymon had either vanished entirely... or it was hiding somewhere they couldn't see it.

Luna looked a bit downcast as he mentioned that she was hoping that maybe, just maybe she could reason with the thing but upon hearing that the hope was quickly dashed. "Yeah I suppose it is, well the only thing we can do now is try and make sure they don't hurt anyone else, hopefully that will give those who lost their lives at least some peace." It was wishful thinking at best but that was all she had at this moment. "All we can do is make sure that sacrifice isn't in vain, I'll do all I can." Luna had to admit there was some fear building in the back of her mind but, looking over at Dust calmly walking put her a bit more at ease.
"That's fine, suppose from what you've told us we should just be prepared for something mindless, if it's just focused on attacking that's easier to deal with. I can work with that." Seems Dust was already formulating a plan of attack, hopefully it'd work and not blow up in his face, or even worse get him blown up in the face.
Well he seemed to go inside leaving the two of them out here, not much to do but look around. Dust walked around a bit and easily picked up on several massive footprints in the area, Luna right behind him did as well leaning on the smaller Impmon as they checked it out. "Guess he was around here, though none seem to be leading away from the area? That doesn't make sense."
Luna pushed herself off Dust and stood up. "Maybe they flew away? Some digimon can weirdly fly without wings. Maybe this was one of them." Could a SkullGreymon fly? Neither was too sure about that but Luna decided to check above them just to be safe while Dust decided to check around the ground.
"Either that or it dug itself into a hole or something, keep an eye out where you walk." With all those bones around the area maybe they were hiding among those, though would a mindless beast even know to hide like that? There was a thought creeping in the back of Dust's mind that it was still in the clinic, though he smothered that. They'd of probably heard the doctor yell if that was the case.

Sadly, Luna would have little luck locating her quarry in the sky. A flying SkullGreymon!? What a silly notion! As if that would ever happen!
Dust however, would find significantly more luck... or perhaps it was worse luck. The earth beneath the Impmon would start to shake and crumble as several bone spikes shot out of the ground, threatening to impale the poor little devil before flying right towards Dr. Cromm's shack, ripping into the walls as bones from every direction jutted out of the ground and did the same.
The hut itself would be torn to shreds as a massive, hulking form would rise from its ruins, forming into the familiar dragon skeleton we all know and love... but with a twist.
For you see, you're not dealing with the average SkullGreymon anymore. This Digimon's bones didn't seem to be fully connected to each other, instead being held together by an eerie, pale-blue flame as if some spectral force was holding this creature together. This was a SkullGreymon that has managed to ascend its status as a mere Ultimate-level Digimon, and now stands before you in its glorious, Mega-level form, and its Digital signal seemed to indicate that.
Yet... something seemed off. SkullGreymon's signal gave off a great deal of power, to be sure, but something about it seemed eff. Its body looked lively enough, but its eyes showed no sign of life, and its head didn't seem to react to anything. In fact, the only thing that was looking at Dust was the creature inside a glowing blue orb inside of the SkullGreymon's ribcage, an Agumon Hakase floating helplessly towards Dust and Luna. Dr. Cromm's mouth was open, but he didn't seem to be able to make a sound as he reached his claws out for help.

Welp there was nothing in the sky, oh wait. Was there? Oh wait no that was just a suspiciously shaped cloud that happened to look like SkullGreymon, which was a funny coincidence if she was honest. " Well, we're not about to get ambushed from above at least." Luna half joked as she waved over to Dust, hopefully easing the tension a bit. However that didn't work at all as Dust quickly figured out, while investigating his side the earth seemed to shake under him, instantly his instincts kicked in and he hopped away managed to get by with just a light scratch on his arm and side from the bone spikes, it was a dull pain that quickly faded though thankfully enough. " Luna, watch out!" Dust shouted as he backed away further, getting as far away as he could from the shack followed quickly by Luna. Managed to back off enough and avoid getting hit by any of the debris. Squaring up to fight the duo watched as the SkullGreymon rose up, though it didn't look like any SkullGreymon Dust or Luna knew, there was something different about them. Hit with it almost instantly they both sensed that same feeling of dread that came whenever they fought a mega, in their champion forms it was like a weight crushing down on them, their very cores threatening to be ripped apart. However whatever feeling that was quickly faded as the two of them saw what seemed to be inside of the SkullGreymon, inside what seemed to be a glowing blue orb was Dr. Cromm? Reaching out towards the two of them for help. That was all the motivation they needed to do something. " Don't worry, we're coming. Warp Evolution!" Luna called out as a stream of data surrounded her frame for a moment, expanding outward before being replaced by Dianamon. " Dianamon! C'mon Dust!" Luna called out as she rushed on forward. Dust had done the same, evolving quickly into his Beelzemon form but something felt off, Luna didn't notice it since she was so gun-ho about trying to save the doctor, but Dust could see it, there was no light in the SkullGreymon's eyes, it didn't even seem to be looking at them. But something was looking at him, not at Luna and himself but just at Dust. With that Dust instantly grabbed Luna's arm before throwing her backwards. " I'll get him, make a barrier for both of us." Dust called back to her as he rushed on ahead, something felt off but he couldn't stand around and do nothing, if his gut was right then... better for him to get hurt then Luna. Luna stumbled back a bit, seemingly a bit confused as to why Dust had done that but nodded. " Splitting Barrier, defend those who cannot themselves and in turn grant strength!" Luna called out, focusing the energy around Dust and doing her best to focus it around the doctor within the SkullGreymon as well. Dust meanwhile would attempt to grab and yank them out, hopefully making this fight easier if he was safe and away.

It was good that Dust was able to avoid getting killed by the bone spikes, because that would have just been awkward for everyone if he went down that easily! But as Luna and Dust evolved into really powerful Mega forms, SkullGreymon didn't seem to take notice or react in any way. Luna pulled back and did some defensive stuff as Dust approached to save Dr. Cromm from a life of being a weird SkullGreymon's hostage/captive, but as he approached, the Agumon Hakase's eyes widened as he seemed to scream at Dust, though whatever words he spoke were completely silenced by the bubble he was contained within. But his overall gestures implied that the Beelzemon should stay away.
Meanwhile, the SkullGreymon's body swung around in a surprisingly limber way. It practically backflipped away from the Beelzemon's grasp as it curled its body up then spread back out, creating a storm of bone shards around the area, ripping apart some of the jungle around them and what remained of Dr. Cromm's clinic. Oh yeah, they'd likely tear into Luna and the shielded Dust.

Dust reached out as far as his arm could reach but before he even got close to catching the doctor, to his surprise, the skullgreymon seemed to almost backflip out of his range. Placing his foot in front of himself Dust skidded against the ground to stop his momentum as he watched the digimon curl up and spread back outward causing a massive storm of bone shards to almost erupt out of him in similar fashion to what had happened before. Thankfully due to Luna's barrier Dust would be mostly fine, the shards imbedded themselves inside the shield stabbing through it but not far enough to actually cause the Beelzemon any physical harm. This was the moment Dust needed to act on. Clearly, they didn't want him to get anywhere near the doctor for some reason so the only thing Dust could think to do was try and knock them down so they couldn't retreat. With the shield fading away Dust clenched his fist tight letting a dark aura surround himself before dashing forward at an incredible speed right towards the head of his skull faced adversary aiming a haymaker to catch them around the head before slamming them into the ground, hopefully to keep them there for the moment while Dust tries to grab the doctor soon after. Luna on the other hand didn't have a shield for herself at the moment, ducking and moving around she managed to avoid a decent amount of the spikes thanks to the small gap between the ones Dust ended up blocking with the shield but she still got some hits in her arm and leg, they hurt a lot but she did her best to simply brush any embeded spikes off as she focused on the fight ahead. Still hoping to make sure they didn't accidentally hit the doctor Luna decided to simply put up her healing field for the moment, setting up it up around herself, letting the damage done by that last attack wash over her for the moment.
Luna C.A: Luna takes a decent amount of damage from the AoE before deciding to heal herself for the moment
