As Boner's timer counts down to midnight, an alarm goes off to signal the beginning of the revolution, and the skeletons all begin to march down the street together. However, Boner does not actually know the location of Costa Brava's capitol building, since skeletons don't usually go to that part of town. As a result, the skeletons end up marching the streets for much longer than expected, which is quite the spectacle, seeing how the crowd likely consists of at least one percent of the entire worldwide skeleton population. After some time of wandering, the skeletons locate the capitol building and begin to storm it, with Boner himself slamming open the door to the mayor's office and immediately gasping in surprise.
"The Mayro is a skeleton?!" Boner exclaims, as the reanimated bones of Mayro yahoo into the scene. Mayro uses his Skelescouter to scan the room for skeletons, and gasps in surprise.
"Mamma mia! The mayor is a skeleton!" Skeletal Mayro shouts. The mayor, who is, in fact, Bon-Bon, holder of the tenth spot on the leaderboard, lets out a skeletal laugh at how foolish this sounds.
"I don't understand, this doesn't make sense. Why do you allow life to be so miserable for skeletons when you yourself are one?!" Boner demands.
"It's quite simple, buddy! MONEY, MONEY, MONEY! The more I perpetuate the anti-skeleton mindset, the more money people give to anti-skeleton causes, and guess who runs those? That's right, ME!" Bon-Bon declares proudly.
"Your reign of terror is over! Prepare to get ULTRA-BONED!"
"You know what happens when a skeleton dies!"
"No I don't, because winners NEVER die!"
"That is true! Which will make it that much better when I win!"
"Don't get cocky now." Boner blows on the bone flute, causing all other skeletons in the vicinity to temporarily merge together into the Big Old Nasty Endoskeleton, or B.O.N.E. for short. However, Boner's plan backfires immensely, as Bon-Bon herself is included in this fusion, and due to being the highest-ranking skeleton out of all the fused skeletons, Bon-Bon takes control of B.O.N.E. and begins to chase down Boner, who immediately starts to run like hell. B.O.N.E., due to its very large size, is able to close in on Boner very quickly, but Boner does manage to get all the way to the Boneyard before B.O.N.E. finally catches up. Just as B.O.N.E. is about to stomp on Boner, Boner pries open the door to the shack containing Thinkles Junior, who proceeds to use the power of dot magic on the enormous skeleton, distorting its body drastically and causing the indirect death of several hundred skeletons. However, this distortion is not enough to stop B.O.N.E. from stomping on Boner, causing Boner to be pulverized along with the bone flute, and in turn causing B.O.N.E. to be deconstructed into its components. Bon-Bon swiftly sneaks away before the rest of the skeletons can reorient themselves, and Thinkles Junior puts a dot smile on his face and runs off. With Boner's BBQ officially having reached the end time listed on the flyers, the skeletons take many forms of transportation to leave the Boneyard as though nothing of particular note happened.
Back at the monument in the nameless city-state, sordo finishes brooding and speaks out again.
"Wadley, I've a proposition for you: I want you to kill me. Is that reasonable?"
Within seconds, sordo is crushed like a soda can't and discarded in a nearby recycling bin, causing silence to once more fall over the monument.
Cybr and Camryn sit on the train, waiting for it to leave the station. It seems that the Order either does not have anybody on the train with them, or that no such person has made themselves known yet, but Cybr is remaining alert, keeping an eye on any suspicious individuals he notices. He uses his glasses to scan the people boarding the train, accessing various databases to view information on them. While most are just random wealthy couples going to get expensive jewelry and such, Cybr takes note of a few particularly abnormal individuals that he suspects may potentially be Order members, having decided that playing it safe at this stage is better than allowing himself to have his guard down again.
The first individual Cybr notes is someone with wildly dyed hair named Pyre Cobalt, who is registered as a "part-time time traveler" according to the Station's police database. There's also Dumb Donald, who Cybr is only suspicious of because of the fact that he clearly does not seem to have any business in EsMachinaburg. Also of potential note is a woman named Aquar, who allegedly works at a florist shop in Costa Brava, which again, seems like something that may not warrant traveling to EsMachinaburg in Cybr's eyes. Cybr attempts to scan the very slippery creature known as Dolph-In, but Dolph-In is so slippery that the scan slips right around and off of him, instead causing Cybr to scan Max Flower, who is standing outside of the train, staring in silently. Cybr just sort of scoots away as Dolph-In sits down across the aisle from him and Camryn, and then goes back to watch more people board the train, being slightly startled to find someone peering directly into his eyes at eye level. The strange man gives a gap-toothed smile and stands straight up, before walking away without saying anything. Cybr looks over at Camryn.
"Did you see that guy?"
"Yeah, seems like a weirdo if you ask me."
"He might be an enemy."
"I doubt it. If he were intending to ambush us, he wasn't exactly being subtle about his presence."
"I'll scan him anyways." Cybr looks back down the aisle towards the man as he walks away, and meets eyes with him again as he turns around and waves, before disappearing into another train car. According to the scan, this man is known as Bermuda, but other than that, has no records in any databases that Cybr has access to. Cybr hears the train beginning to move, and takes his attention off of the door, causing him to notice that someone else sat down across the aisle from him and Camryn while he was distracted by Bermuda. The person in question appears to be slightly more detailed than the average random person, which is likely an indicator that they are important in one way or another. Cybr looks over at this man for a bit, but can't get a good scan on his face, since he seems deeply focused on a book he's looking down at. As the train leaves the station, a car-like creature known as B-Lard closely follows alongside it, eventually reaching the window right next to the more detailed than average character, who is, in fact, none other than Shamazon himself, known for being the discoverer and protector of the Shamazon Painforest. Shamazon brings out his Stand, D, which takes the form of a large capital letter 'D' with arms and legs, one arm holding a large pencil. Shamazon nonchalantly uses D to begin sketching in the book in front of him, seemingly making diagrams about various flora and fauna of the Painforest. B-Lard approaches the window to try and get a better look at Shamazon's sketches, but it's hard to make out through the window. B-Lard pounds on the glass to get Shamazon's attention, causing Shamazon to jolt away from his work and look over to the creature, which is gesturing at the latch on the window. Shamazon begins to reach for the latch, but his phone suddenly rings, forcing Shamazon to perform a combo maneuver to open the latch and pick up the call at the same time.
"Gongor, why are you calling me right now? There are important errands being run!" Shamazon scolds through the phone, before listening for a bit. "What do you mean? Ugh, I'll take a look when I'm back."
"Hi back, I'm interrupting!" says Dad.
"Sh! This is personal business." Shamazon clicks the phone shut, as B-Lard scuttles inside and onto the ceiling of the train car, before heading towards the back, just as the train pulls up to EsMachinaburg and the passengers begin to file out one by one.
