Buck ignores the beeping in his pocket and instead attempts to convince one of the Durant to drink a flask of his sleeping grog.
"Hey Beat, the little metal id cards keep beeping at us."

Alessa pat Myron, who was sitting on her lap, and smiled at the group of plant-types she was feeding. "You're all so cute... Would any of you like to come with us? I specialize in plant-types and would love to have any of you with me. What do you say? Want to come with Myron and the rest of my friends?" she said, attempting to convey calm kindness as much as possible. She really wanted at least one of the group to come with her... Petilil would help her out massively with her cooking, and Oddish was plenty interesting a pokemon. Bellsprout, while admittedly the one she'd thought the least about before this, would also help give her team some offensive power in the long term. Charm+AP Oa|YCI9t2d6+1 2d6+1

Eric calmly stands behind Alessa, strumming an uplifting tune. "We're all friends alright, sure would be nice to travel together."He hopes the tune will help to sway them, but is largely hoping Alessa can befriend them herself. Charm Roll wLXe|CIL4d6 4d6

Elliot nods dumbly for a moment, before shutting his mouth with a click of teeth. "Right. I'll just send them a message..." He pulls Dot out, and begins typing a message, taking a picture of the up-close Corpsagrigus. He quickly puts up a copy of it for sale with a notation that it's capable of speech, before attaching it to an outgoing message to everyone who has a Dex, as well as the Yaskull picture. He sends a message alerting all of them to not attack either of these pokemon should they see them; and to please come to his location, noting how he got here from the central cave and pertinent details for the group that he hadn't been with.

Honey smiles at the seemingly friendly bugs. "Hello," She replies to their excited chirping. "You've got such a pretty hive!"
She looks around in curious wonder, but is willing to follow along after their urging either way, seemingly unruffled at the notice of the pokemon. Surely they're friendly, if they aren't attacking her! And she's in their home, after all, and it would be rude to cause problems!

Beatrix takes a long moment to consider her Dex with the odd buzzing it makes, anything to draw her attention off of Buck's ant-tics. A graceful eyebrow arched high as she considers the image that came with the plea for help. Unsettling as it is, this 'Yaskull' seems far more divergent then anything else they've seen in this place, and in some ways perhaps safer then following Buck's plan to piss off a colony.
"Well, you have fun losing digits... I've plenty of hobby catches for one day already, I've no need to lose a hand to steel pincers." With a certain degree of nonchalant-ness, Beatrix gave Buck a wave and retreated from the volcanic hollows, mounting when it was again prudent, and following the instructions to join Elliot.
"On my way." She sends back to the imperiled trainer.

"We shall wait for your allies, in the time being you surely have...question?" asks the Corpsagrigus softly. | Eric and Alessa get little approval, other than one Petilil that seems attached to Alessa, and a Bellsprout dancing to Eric's tune. Petilil Level 12 Female Aroma Veil (+SP.DEF, -DEF)
Bellsprout Level 13 Female Limber (+SP.DEF, - SP.ATK)
At that point the pair note a lack of Honey in their midst. Where could she have gone off to? Also Elliot is asking for aid with the Pokemon called Corpsagrigus. | Several meters below...
Honey is being escorted by the Ninjasks further into their hive, winding further down, lighted by crystals embedded into the walls, which seem to be tended by Joltik and Galvantula, they seem to be enjoying the vibe it's giving off. Somewhere here Honey is alerted that Elliot found a strange Pokemon that can talk! He is also asking for assistance, but she doesn't think she can get out of here anytime soon. At long last, Honey is being led into a chamber, where she is immediatley dazzled by something very radiant. After a while her eyes adjust to the brilliance, realizing that what she is looking at is a Platinum Scizor, apparently residing in it's throne room, beset by it's advisors. They seem to be some of the most powerful bug types around. A huge Crustle, a powerful Scolipede, and an Accelgor. But also a Reuniclus? It looks at Honey curiously, before nodding at the Ninjasks, who swiftly disappear. The attention is fully on Honey now. | Buck has to accept that the ants don't give a damn about his silly bait. Will he join Beatrix? If he does, he will be greeted by a Yaskull which will lead him into the passage that leads to the pillar, instructing them to climb the pillar, and finally leads him into the cavern of the bones and Corpsagrigus. | Beatrix is greeted by the creature mentioned by Elliot, which nods at her, pointing her in the direction she needs to move towards, leading her to the pillar, instructing you to climb it, and finally into the bone cavern. She sees Elliot and the Corpsagrigus. It still looks like a skeleton with four arms. |

"Well hey there. That's fantastic dancing. How about you come with me and we cna have lots of dance parties!" Eric holds out a Pokéball for his new friend. Once she's inside he turns around. "Hey Honey did you see this cool... Where'd Honey go?"

Alessa gently offered the Petilil a pokeball as well, smiling all the while. "This was certainly a worthwhile detour. Here, darling, you can take this pokeball and come with me if you want. I'd like to call you Tamara, Ok?"When the Petilil is captured, and at Eric's comment, Alessa turned around and frowned at catching no glance of Honey. "Hum, you're right. I wonder where she went. Let me text her"
She pulled out her Dex and, after a quick hi to Cassius, wrote a small message to Honey and hit send.
Honey, where are you? We found some plant-types close to where the Eelektross dropped us and got distracted. Now we have no idea where you are!

"She said she found something over there right? Lets wander that way until she replies." Eric points in the vague direction of the mound Honey had mentioned earlier, and starts walking towards it.

"Right, well." Beatrix stated breathlessly when she did at last come on Elliot and the Corpsagrigas, brushing a lock of hair out of her eyes and back into it's sweep to the side. "I can see way you were so unsettled as to contact us. Imagine, talking pokemon, much less the bloody talking dead. You don't look to be in any kind of danger though? ... Unless you're cursed now." The woman adjusted her glasses and squints at the mass of bones for a moment. "You don't -seem- very cursed either though... there's no screaming."

Elliot swallows nervously. "Um yeah, I've got a few questions. I think the biggest one I have is... well, what exactly is it that you need help against? Because frankly you seem pretty powerful. Other than that my next biggest question is what happened to the humans that were down here. I mean, just from the mon you sent earlier to meet me, it's obvious that they lived down here once, and that weird array of crystals acting as an artificial sun... there's no way it was natural."
He starts as Beatrice makes her appearance, turning and shaking his head. "Um, no, I'm not cursed. This, um, being however wanted to speak with us. Said that he needed our help for something. Some kind of "great evil" that needs to be secured, and a test to see if we were capable of helping him."

Honey hears her pokedex chime with alerts, but doesn't want to seem rude--and things are far too interesting to bother looking at her pokedex now! She takes in the sights in wonder, mouth agape, awe growing with every new discovery. Finally, stunned into silence, she peers around the throne room and its inhabitants in barely suppressed glee.
"I...I didn't think this is what they meant when they said bugs have queens," She whispers, mostly to herself. She twists her head to watch the ninjask leave, raising a hand in a goodbye, before turning back to stare at the magnificent scizor and its court.
"H...hello?" She tries, speaking a bit slowly, but flashes an attempt at a charming smile nonetheless. She can't help the soft, reverent hesitance that makes her next statement a question, "It's nice to meet you?"

Buck is saddened by the ants lack of adventurous spirit by being unwilling to try his adventurous spirits.
Well, probably for the best anyway. He wanders off to find Beatrix to tell her all about how he took on the whole colony and decided they were unworthy after all.

Alessa and Eric follow the tracks of Honey's boots and return to the mound. Entering it is at the beginning rather dark and musty, but brightens swiftly as glowing crystals are embedded in the walls, tended by Joltik and Galvantula. Soon the duo is spotted by a buzzing group of Ninjask, three of them, that approach you, buzzing excitedly. Not outright hostile, but very attentive. They chirp a few times and suddenly three more Ninjask appear, swiftly encircling you, urging you to follow you deeper into the cave. They lead you down some tunnels, all well worked and smooth. You are eventually led into a large room, where you are immediately blinded by a brillinat flash of light. Soon you are getting accostumed to the brightness and realize it's a platinum colored Scizor accompanied by Honey that is trying to charm the bug. Alongside the Scizor are a massive Crustle, a huge Scolipede, an Accelgor and a Reuniclus. The Bugs eye the Humans very suspiciously, while the Reuniclus just has this absolutely happy face of pure curiosity. | Honey does not believe that this behavior is normal at all. First off, the Bug types present may be known to form hives/groups but not interspecies hives. Much less monarchies. While Honey is being gauged by the bugs, and ponders the hierarchy of the hive, she notices that Eric and Alessa joined the room, being led by a group of Ninjasks, just as Honey herself.
Once everyone is accostumed to the situation, the Reuniclus addresses it's human guests, it's voice a hollow echo in your minds.
"Welcome to the court of the Platinum Emperor my guests. You couldn't have come to a more opportune time. We are facing a dire threat this instance, and you humans could be the agents we need!"/td]
| Ah, there are your allies after all. Yes, the Sun is not natural. It's my good friend Heliod, a "Solrock" to you humans I believe. No, there has never been a "Natural" population of humans in these caves. And the humans that came down here exploring mostly died in these caves. Unfortunately as I may add.
What we need help with is simple really. There is a Pokemon captured within these caves, supernatural in all aspects, but still a Pokemon. I want you to catch it. Which is also why I need your help to accomplish the task at hand." |

"Hi Honey, so this is whe- Did that Pokémon just talk to me?" Eric says in confusion. He looks to Honey for guidance on this strange situation.

Honey is gaping at the group of pokemon when Eric asks his question, and gives a helpless shrug. "Ye-....yes?" She glances at the hovering spybot, already planning on reviewing this later to make sure that this isn't some fever dream. Still, she parses what the pokemon had said and tilts her head, peering at the Reuniclus.
"What kind of threat?" She asks after a few seconds, sparing a glance at her two friends.

Alessa was too busy scribbling furiously into a notepad. Talking pokemon? Interspecies bug-type hives? Pokemon capable of human communication?
"This is the best college break ever. Tell me this is not the best research assignment I've dragged you to, Honey" she said, excited.
Recollecting herself, though, she turned to the apparent leading group of pokemon.
"Um, what would being an agent imply, too? I, well. We may not even be that good at what you need. I mean, all I'm really good at are book smarts, cooking and patching up others"

"Yes....well...no, I am not talking...directly. What I am doing is sending concepts and ideas I wish to convey, and your brain transforms them to words.
Now that we covered this, the threat we are talking is a certain Pokemon. A pokemon imprisoned in these caves. What I wish you to accomplish is to capture that Pokemon. It poses too much a threat to let roam free within these halls, as it's prison could at any moment fail. I can offer you a lot of things, our empire has many riches we can offer, and we have great abilities that we could lend you, to name a few examples of what we can offer. So what do you say? Would you like to be our Agents in these matter?"
