[ Yes, maybe Yamato is the one on this adventure with them. Sakyou and Molly who? Dimitri is just holding poor Silber and looking on gravely. He'll let Caleb deal with Yamato while Dimitri sideeyes this portal. Is there anything around it that can clue them in on what it is? Anything through it? He is probably more familiar with portals than computers, because magic is real. ]
[It is just an ominous blue swirling portal. Yamato is standing in front of it and immediately something that looks suspiciously like crumpled paper behind his back.]
I'm, uh, fine. [casually yeets the paper into the portal. goodbye, paper.] Nothing to see here!
[ ...He's not going to outright suspect Yamato right away. Hopefully that was just an embarrassing love letter to Taichi and not a plot-relevant report. ]
We've been tasked with finding a lost child. And looking into something called Onex, presumably.
The odds are good we're going to have to go through this portal, aren't they? It would be an objectively crazy thing to do, but it is probably the only way out.

Anyway, he's worried when he sees Yamato there, looking to see if he's injured.]
. . . Are you alright? Are you here with anyone else?

What are you doing here, anyway?
no subject
What did you just throw? We were brought here, same as you? Are you following some sort of strange story?

[Yamato is practically T-posing in front of the portal now.]
... Wait, did my dad send you after me? Damn it, Dad!
no subject
. . . Yes, your father sent us. What are you doing?
no subject
And what is this?
no subject
[He's going to try and walk past Caleb and Dimitri and their two cats. Just ignore the portal wow.]

What's on the other side of this?
no subject
No idea. Probably tossing them into space or something? Wherever they end up, it's nowhere here.
[And that's all that matters, apparently.]
Can we go now?
no subject
[Anyway, he's going to frisk this teen?]
no subject
[ Caleb is looting a teenager, but Dimitri is going to carefully approach the portal now. No ill effects? ]
no subject
[Caleb obtains... papers! They're, um. They're edgy band lyrics and love letters to Taichi.
Dimitri suffers no ill effects, but if he gets too close, it's going to feel a little like it's trying to suck him in...]
no subject
Go back to your father, and ask him to pay down our debt.
[Because he's looking alarmed at Dimitri now?]
At the same time. [Let's try to go through? He's bringing the cats.]
no subject
He does take a step back before he gets sucked in entirely, but mostly so he can be even with Caleb as he nods. ]
All right. On three.
One, two... [ And there they (and their cats) go through the portal. ]
no subject
They step through... and then soon find themselves in an underground cavern?]
