Jayna looks up, and blinks at Mica's outfit. "On the one hand, I'm glad you're safe, and also I should be thankful for getting more information in a day than we've basically gotten in years of study, but..." she shakes her head. "Something about this doesn't sit right with me. I have so many questions, but I can't think of any that matter. I could ask who you are, who that was, what was the deal with all that... but, I just... it seems like there's something going on. There's kidnapping, whatever that is," she gestures to Mica's armour, "People who claim to be eighty thousand years old. I... I have no idea if Lana knew about any of this, but, whatever it is, especially if you're claiming secrecy, I don't want to get mixed up in it. Just go."

Donovan sighed, having expected this outcome. He grabbed a piece of paper and scribbled down his contact info before handing it to Jayna "I know you probably don't want to even think about it right now, but I'll answer any questions you have that I can. And uh....I'm just some random boy from Sinnoh who was in the wrong place at the right time, that's all"
With that he motioned to Mica before turning around and leaving.

"Lana is the reason we are here, and Cyrene was waiting for us, so it is possible.". Mica commented helpfully, before being shooed out by Donovan. She gave the boy a cursory look over as they headed back to town, and likely the temple beyond. "You feeling alright? You are freaking out a lot less then usual."
Normal for Donovan was probably a good thing, and this certainly wasn't.
"Maybe we should do the remaining temples out of order. If Axiom can also notice when the world changes, we don't want Polaris on us every step of the way..."

"I... well, I'll keep that in mind," Jayna says, still not seeming to know exactly how to process all of this, before muttering "If you knew anything, Lana, why not give me a heads-up?" Sighing, she goes back to writing things down.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just...no reason to freak out yet. It wasn't doing us any good." He sounds calm. Maybe he actually was?
"I think we should visit the Poison Temple first because it's close and then we can go in whatever order. We should look into getting a faster mode of travel, like how Axiom has her weird robot bird thing. Maybe we should get some flying types?"

"Dusty can sorta fly now... but... she's kinda not Dusty anymore either. You're right though! A Pokemon that can carry both of us around would be amazing. Maybe you could ask Lana where we could find something like that? We can make that our first priority after the Poison Temple... If you send her a message on the way there, maybe we'll know when we get out?"

The pair heads out, leaving the city and archeological site behind, and heading back down the mountain the way they came up. The view, at least, is different looking down. Also different is that this time there's not just serene quiet along the way. Partway down the mountains, a loud clang rings out, punctuated by several thuds and bashes.
The sources of those noises soon come into view, as there's two figures that seem to be in the midst of tussling with one another. One is a stout brassy-coloured armoured humanoid, with a crest atop its head and a cape. The other is a floating stone sphere with four arms, and a single cyclopean eye moving back and forth. They seem to be mostly trading punches, neither getting the upper hand.

Donovan just sort of stops in place for a moment, watching. After blows kept getting traded back and forth with nothing changing, he leaned over to Mica "Do uh....do you just want to go around? I don't think they've even noticed us"

Mica's eyes lit up, starry and bright at the sight. This was something they hadn't seen in the wilds before! Two Pokemon on even ground testing their strength! There was no bullying, no hunger, it was the raw sport of fighting itself! Pushing limits to surpass them!
"I wanna play too!" The teen declared as she moved into the fray. "You are both so cool!"

The Pokémon may not have noticed the humans before, but they sure do now, as Mica causes their attention to snap to her. The scene is almost eerie in its stillness, as the combatants freeze almost in unison to look the interloper over, seemingly not entirely sure what's going on. The rock makes a ethereal beeping-buzzing sound towards Mica, but it keeps glancing over at the brass humanoid - who glances back.
They each seem to be waiting for the other - or someone else - to make a move first.

"FREE FOR ALL! Mica yells gleefully before stepping in to strike the floating stone creature, firing a short jab from her hip. She hadn't gotten opportunity to be rough for fun in ages, Donovan bruised easily and didn't appreciate it the same way she did.

Donovans eyes went wide as Mica began punching "MICA NO!" But he didn't make a move to get in the fray either. He calmly pulled out the Grass Plate and began to focus, attempting to pull out the bow. If he had to fight, he would rather do it from a distance.

Mica's attack catches the rock straight on, breaking small parts of it off. It swings back with all four arms, but Mica's able to duck under it. The brass humanoid seems to just stand there, concentrating, looking for an opening on either one. Mica hits with Rock Smash. Graveler misses with Submission. Golett uses Bulk Up.

As part of her dodge, Mica slides into the Golett's guard, butts into it's chest, grabs a bulky arm and attempts to sweep it's legs before hurling it aside like a heavy ragdoll.

The metal humanoid gets flung back, but leaps at Mica again, connecting with a powerful fist. The Rock suddenly grabs her with all 4 arms, lifting up into the air a little before slamming her down. It hurts rather more than the punching did. Apparently the ground's fighting her, too. Golett is hit by Circle Throw. It's super Effective! Mica loses 25 HP from Seismic Toss. Mica takes 18 damage from Mega Punch.

Mica laughs after she bounces with a little 'Oof', there'll be some bruising. Sitting up with a big smile, covered with dirt, tears in her eyes, the teenager drapes her arms across her knees. "You're both really good fighters!" Slowly she gets to her feet, not bothering to brush the road dust off. "I'm not nearly that sturdy though. It was really nice to meet you both!"

The two Pokémon seem a little confused at Mica, and blink/wink at her. It only lasts a moment, though, before they go back to fighting one another again, the attacks mostly plinking off the hard skins of the 'mon.

"Maybe I'm doing this wrong." She scratches her cheek, moving with a slight limp as she again rejoins the fray. She tried something a bit gentler, maybe the idea wasn't to get all beat up?

The rocky sphere easily catches her arm with one of its hands, and does the same with another to the brass warrior as it tries to launch an speedy surprise attack at the stone. The rock peers at her, whirring strangely, as though trying to process exactly what she's trying to say. Its single glowing eye changes size as it peers at her, as though focussing. Graveler uses Lock-On. Golett misses Graveler with Mach Punch.

Giving the Rock Pokemon another cheerful smile, she uses the Graveler's hold to get a leg up, aiming to boot the Golett. "I haven't had this much fun in a long time! Haha!"
