DUNGEON: LETHAL VOLCANO

[CLAIRE LYON]

► oh it eats us alive Yes there's a scream inside That we all try to hide We hold on so tight But I don't wanna die

Sebastian Devaroux Haruhi Ryuukami Yana Sekigawa Distracting her momentarily from the heat were Haruhi's words, and she found the girl standing nearby, also apparently declining to make a purchase. As much as she was reluctant to waste her water and would be more likely to tough it out than the others, perhaps it was all the more evident that she needed it when she'd silently asked Walter to cool her down. "Perhaps so," she agreed, voice low. "Should things get more dangerous further on, we may not have another chance." From her side, she pulled her own personal bottle of water and took a drink, though she would leave a small amount in reserve. The merchant's words caused a small frown to appear on her face. That would certainly be a gruesome, firey end, meaning the only way forward was success. She did not heed Yana's advice and buy a pyramid to escape, because she had no intention of failing, even if it meant finishing this alone. And as she thought of Sebastian's earlier refusal to act, she noted there was no room for weak links either. She envisioned the top of the volcano, where a glimmer of skylight would most likely be seen. It sounded like this place was ready to erupt again, and possibly at any second. If she could stay near the center, Walter could carry her out of there easily in the event of a disaster- as Magnadramon, up and out. That was, of course, speaking completely from optimism- more realistically, as they descended, their flight and escape route might be barred by twisting tunnels, or hindered by the complications of the eruption. Claire wouldn't claim to be an expert on volcanology, but she suspected escape wouldn't be as easy as it sounded. 'How dreadful...' Either way, the Digimon's words turned out to be rather cryptic indeed, but overall more a waste of time than anything, with precious moments passing that they could have used to advance. As the tremor finished, Claire gave a single humorless laugh. "Sounds like we're wasting our time dawdling here then. I suggest we pick up the pace." A look that just held a hint of her mild contempt for Zachary was sent in his direction before nodding once at the Wizardmon. "That will be all, good sir. Our thanks to you." She wouldn't dwell too much on the riddle for the moment, and ignored Zachary, starting to walk ahead with Walter- the boy and his kitten talked too much, and it was a waste of energy at best, distracting at worst. Whatever those strange words meant, surely they would find it soon enough. "Claire speech." "Walter speech."

The items were distributed according to each individual purchase, with the overjoyed Flamewizardmon thanking them all for their business. However, Zachary's question wasn't met nearly as happily. The Digimon lost all of its prior happiness, with even its flames growing to a halt with sudden stillness. He sounded as ominous as his stance suggested - almost like he was telling them a horror story - so much that even Yana gulped as she looked on towards the path ahead. What did he mean by child of the volcano? This was a riddle even Ari - who digivolved into a Sphynx - couldn't figure out right away, "Child of the Volcano huh...", she muttered, pondering as Yana was staring firmly at the flaming merchant. His final riddle was rather easy to understand, the volcano was still active; Yana had seen as much the last time she was here, "Indeed. The quicker we finish this the less chances of being burned to a crisp...", Ari would nod at Mytholomon, doing the same and urging Yana forwards. The girl just nodded and pressed on, looking back every now and then to make sure her teammates were following. "Justice... Injustice... Both of those are a matter of perspective; too vague to make any sense from it.", rubbing her chin as she walked, Ari pondered, "The child of the Volcano could as well be the lava all around us. All of this data, all of this energy; who knows what creative minds could try to do with it?" Giygan Volcano... It was at that point that Yana suddenly stopped in her tracks, immediately turning to Sebastian with an ominous, almost frightened look of realization, "Sebastian, do you remember that Digimon from the Sewers? Remember his name...", she'd whisper, before gesturing to the steaming cave around them, "Now think of where we are...! You don't think the two are possibly related?!" The name was oddly similar... And after that Flamewizardmon mentioned a child of the volcano... This was strictly in the realm of supposition however, which was why Yana was determined not to make a fuss about it. But if this Giygas was related to this child of the Giygan Volcano - perhaps even the thing itself - and something was powerful enough to threaten it? The implications were obviously frightening.

Zachary's question yielded as many answers as Haru had expected. In the grand digital world it was rare that things happened by chance. Most things, such as volcano eruptions, seemed to be known by the populace. Maybe it was just something in their code. Things only got dangerous when bugs got into the system. The problem with bugs in the digital world is that they were often times digimon as well. Flamewizardmon hadn't tried to kill them, but it couldn't be said he helped them either. Not without a nominal fee. Whatever was causing this Volcano to act up was related to a digimon, it was a wild assumption, but not an unfair one. It was a conclusion that everyone had likely reached themselves, common sense was all it took. Despite her words, Haru had chosen to pack light. No water bottle of her own to drink from. She was hot. Sweaty. But far from tired or woozy. V too looked perfectly fine. Seeming quite at home in the belly of a volcano. With Wizardmon gone, Haru was left to shake her head as the volcano choked out a guttural rumbling. As if Haru had forgotten the thing was indeed active. Much to Haru's surprise Yana would join in on the speculation. She went as far as to mention... Sewers? Yana wasn't a flighty girl. If she brought it up, she wasn't just blindly throwing crack theories out quite like Zachary and his cat were. "Claire's right... If you need to speculate, we should do it on the go. Wizardmon was docile but so far nothing else has been. If he was being cryptic because the walls have eyes, he certainly seemed convinced they also had them in here..." she's state quite simply, looking to her big blue dragonsaurus rex, who just nodded along in agreement.

Sebastian would be silent, his mind still heavy about whether Meramon would become something that haunted him, or another ofof these tamers. The man would walk with Penguinmon whom had reverted back to this form, in honestly he had been thinking the same thing as Yana since the name of the volanoe was officially stated, it couldn't be a coincidence. He wasn't good with rhymes but if this were true if Gigyas was the child of the Gigyan volcanoe...then could this be it. Could this be the place were Gigyan was weakest, were the child of the volcanoe isn't protected. Sebastian couldn't let himself get his hopes up. If it weren't true then he would just end up getting himself in trouble. Sighing to himself Sebastian would then smile directly at Yana, trying to reassure her. "We should go, staying here, it isnt sae,we need to get a move on. This place, its just....its eery," Sebastian would say gently. "Yeah, we should move on, i don't know about you guys, but i don't wanna be a chicken mcnugget" Penguinmon would say ever so gently. Thus sebastian would head forth, the human male and the bird like digimon, powering through the volcanoe. By this point he had essentially stripped to his underwear, he didn't really give a fuck about what the others thought, the heat. IT begun to crawl over him coupled by the doubt and fear of the meramons spirit. He was done, broken inside, but he couldn't let them see. Not just now, everything had gone wrong recently for him and it was beginning to look like this journey was a waiste of time. The shaman had sent them here, but why? what had they actually done for him. Sebastian would walk in silence, the penguin following him. ]

[[ ROOM 6 ]]

Following the flames lining the tunnel walls, the party should be able to reach the exit with no problems. The temperature rises intensely upon leaving FlameWizardmon's humble home as the thick, uneven layer of magma on their left gradually disappears, exposing them again to the unforgiving steams of the lava pit below.

As they proceed walking, they will find a large shadow of a Flarerizamon not too far ahead tinkering with what seemed to be a chest. The Flame Digimon looks left and right before gently closing it and walking away. The party is free to cross the chamber but on their way, they will see Flarerizamon's bright red chest poorly locked and can be easily opened. If the party decides to check what inside, they will see a piece of meat cooked to perfection.

ITEM:

• WELL-COOKED MEAT - A savory fire roasted hunk of meat. Though a vegetable in the Digital World, it tastes much like a bbq steak. Restores a decent amount of health upon consumption. Single use.

Sebastian visibly reacted to her comment, yet he said not a single word on the topic, which made Yana cock her head curiously. Perhaps it was one of those "speak of the devil..." situation, for she was certain he had no interest in having Giygas ambush them here. The tunnel soon came to an end and with it the refreshingly cool air (by comparison at least). As the ever present pool of lava finally waded into view, Yana immediately went back to fanning herself, sweat dripping down her skin once again. Regardless, that meant she wasn't on the lookout, but she did notice a chest up ahead. Did it belong to someone? Would she care? She certainly didn't seem to by the way she walked over and casually opened the chest: Another chunk of well cooked meat. Yana grabbed and picked it up, but given her power when compared to some of the others' and her already posessing one of them, she promptly decided to turn around and wave it around, offering it to her teammates, "Any of you need this...? Ari can get by with the one I have now.", she'd ask, adjusting her glasses with the other hand. "Well aren't you nice...?", she'd quip playfully, purposely making it unclear whether it was a genuine compliment or criticism for forgoing a healing item. Still, she was fully aware of her own power, more so than some of the others. Indeed Sebastian also had his champion form, but he lacked an Armor form beyond it. Haru and Zachary too had yet to show theirs if she posessed it.

Haruhi Ryuukami usagi Sebastian Devaroux Zachary Scryer Odd- it appeared the dark haired girl not only recognized the name, but appeared very alarmed by it, and quite suddenly at that. However, her words didn't divulge any information that could help them, and so the stop was another foolish waste of time. With just the slightest shake of her head in disapproval, Claire continued to move. If nothing else, at least Haruhi was focused, and Claire silently appreciated her words. When Sebastian agreed as well, the woman was thankful. Despite being outwardly calm, the thought of being inside this active volcano for much longer was making her, admittedly, increasingly agitated. With the heat only increasing as they moved, the woman grew more eager to end this mission as quickly as possible. The sight of the Flarizamon's shadow made both Claire and Walter pause instinctively, but the creature seemed to move on. Good- as much as she enjoyed a little skirmish, now was more than ever not the time to be playing with the volcano's lackeys. It was Yana that picked up the meat, and offered it to the group. Such a thing could be useful, but Claire shook her head. Let one the others take it, should they need it. "Claire speech." "Walter speech."

It felt time was urgent and growing more and more dangerous as time went on. Still, despite the scurrying little Flarizamon nearby and the chest, no other threat was being detected. Though why that digimon did what he did, he was not sure of. They already had some meat. Still, Zachary thought it had little to do with their own needs and got a feeling it would be a more important tool for the fight ahead.

"No. No thank you," Zachary replied simply and just shook his head.

Mytholomon beside him also shook his head, denying any need of hunger for the moment.

Zachary felt anxious and wished to move on to the next area. He They had to finish this soon-- or the volcano might very well explode with them inside it.

[Sebastian Devaroux]

Holding ones breath as the shadow moved, Sebastian couldn't help but feel a little guilty as Yana tried to pass around the meat. "It obviously belongs to that Digimon, we should leave it in the chest, finding something on the ground is a bit different than finding something the digimon obviously wanted to hide" Sebastian would say softly as he declined the piece of meat, Penguinmon would do the same, nodding in agreement. "I wouldn't want anyone just taking my stuff" she would say softly. "we should continue" she would say. Sebastian would remain behind a little, intending to walk with Yana. "If its true, if that riddle was about Gugyas...do you think that this is the place, this is the place were he's weakest, or were he can be wounded. It would be ideal to have found that information" Sebastian would say softly, and it was true, that kind of information was hard to find.

Sebastian was still pretty naked but he seemed not to care, he was hot, he was exausted and he wanted to get the hell out of there as fast as humanly possible. "Do you think we have much longer to go" SEbastian would say adressing the group, they had been walking for what fel like forever, but it seemed making no headway. Sebastian was getting hotter and all he had left to remove was his black boxers, clothes in his hand as he walked. His mind drifted, all he could think about was a cold soda.

The party was now on their way once again, the heat spiking as they left the abode of the shop keep, the relative coolness of the cave no longer any comfort as they once again found themselves standing above a lake of lava. As they traveled on, seemingly unhindered, they came upon a beautiful crimson chest, one that had once been blocked by the familiar shadow of the merchant they had just met. Haru had to take a moment to resist her urge to scream. This was... The second? Third time maybe that Yana had just... Run over to something and picked it up? This wasn't some dungeon full of ancient unclaimed treasure, digimon lived here! This was their shit! More over she had no way of knowing if the box was booty trapped or if it wasnt, whether or not what was in there was free to be taken. But there it was. A rather good looking piece of meat. Weighing the choices in her head, it looked liked nobody wanted it, or needed it. Though it was always good to be prepared... But this might likely be stealing from wizardmon, the only legitimately friendly digimon they had encountered so far. "Put it back, Yana. If its owner wanted us to have it, he'd have offered it to us sooner." Haru said flatly, trying to get across her annoyance with Yana's head first method of looting, without betraying her stoicism. "Food is good though. The only harm is letting it go to waste..."

Each step takes the party closer to the volcano's core, boldly they have taken on the monsters the resides within. However, the climax is not easily achieved. This journey is not a walk in the park and before the humans can face the king, they must get past the knights.

The ground shakes at the booming footsteps approaching the group in a steady, consistent and intimidating intervals. Its tremor gradually increases in strength, sending in vibrations with a violent intent. Not long after, before the party, stands a mechanized monster looking down on them with fury in his eyes, judging intently the intruders before them.

Silence fills the air of the Volcano; both sides frozen for a fleeting moment before the MetalGreymon releases a roar that reaches beyond the highest chamber of the raging mountain and slashing his Trident Arm with an alarming force.

600 words to defeat!

Finally, at long last they emerged into another far larger chamber of the volcano. Zachary now somehow was leading the group -- position wise next to Yana beside him. Not by intent, but Zachary was driven to get this nightmare of a mission over with. They had been there so long it was starting to mess with their patience. Time in a volcano would make anyone irritable, like Clair there  

As they entered, another tremor rocked the platform, this time causing Zachary to fall onto Mytholomon and grip onto him to keep up. The entire continued to shake-0- and then they could see it, rising out of the lava of the area. A giant behemoth of a creature, clad in what appeared  to be both scales and metal! It emerged, and released a deafening roar out into the caverns, causing Zachary for a moment to cover his ears. "Great... just what we needed," Zachary groaned. Mytholomon too cringed at the roar, and glared at the enemy before them within the lava pit.

Reaching for his Digivice, the screen lit up and the holographic circles appeared around him, giving him full detail of the digimon-- and it was pretty clear what it was too as the picture appeared. "Metalgreymon. Figures... another Jurassic Reject," Zachary groaned, giving a full read out of its powers. "Cyborg digimon... I can't tell if its virus or vaccine attributed... Ultimate level! Special attacks is Giga Blaster and Trident Arm. Its under the catagories of Virus Buster, Dragon's Roar, Nature Spirits and Metal Empire. "

Mytholomon snarled as he saw Metalgreymon. "An ultimate. So we finally find an opponent worth fighting seriously. Zachary, let's crank things up a notch then." the winged panther suggested.

"You sure? I thought the plan was to conserve our strength for the final fight, cause we don't know what to expect?" Zachary asked.

"With what we faced up till now, sure..." Mytholomon said, his eyes still on Metalgreymon, his claws digging into the stone below. "But this enemy will not go down with our power now, not without you expending even more of your cards. So let's bring out my full power now and show them who they are messing with."

Cautiously, Zachary drew out a card from his pocket-- revealing to be a holo-foil blue card. Upon movement, the flash of the 'D with a dinosaur' coming out of it was visible. The source code for all digimon were contained inside its data-- allowing to have a digimon evolve further beyond what was capable alone! "Alright... let's do it!" Zachary said, and tossed the card into the air.

(Cinematic moment) Snapping the card between his fingers, Zachary looked at it with determination. The blue card was held in his left hand and his digivice in his right hand. He had his arms crossed in a dramatic position across his chest, then brought the two together before him, connecting the Blue card with the digivice card reader. Upon contact, light and sparks flew from the reader, as the reading strip was pushed through. Energy was released, causing the digivice screen to glow brighter. "Digi-modify!" Zachary shouted, feeling the burst of energy from the Blue card. With a final tug, he slashed the card clean through the digivice. "MATRIX DIGIVOLUTION!!" Zachary shouted,

The digivice scream once glowed--- and then erupted with light, drawing power and shot right for Mytholomon, causing the great panther to let out a mighty roar!

"MYTHOLOMON MATRIX DIGIVOLVE TO--!" the large cat roared, feeling the power of the blue card enter his body. As the data code ran along his body, he felt himself being lifted off the ground. His great burning wings wrapped around his cat like form, almost like a cocoon. As the last of his body vanished in the fiery wings, it released a dark flash of light.

After the flash, the vision of an old Mezo-american temple could be seen in the night-- alit by the glow of a full moon. At the top a strange, jaguar like statue stood upon the structure. Slowly, the moon began to become eclipsed by darkness. As it did, the statue began to change. Shadow coated along its body. The once stone claws were washed by the shadows-- and became flesh, moving with black fur and muscle, and claws. As the moon became more eclipsed, the features soon no longer became stone, as soon shaman-like gold and feathers were seen, a torso, legs, a tail-- and finally as the last moments of the eclipse happened, the carved head of the statue was washed over by darkness-- and two yellow eyes snapped open , followed by a panther's cry.

At the very moment the eclipse was complete-- the actual statue shattered into several shards of stone-- revealing the fully formed bipedal black jaguar creature. A black panther on two feet, adorn in shaman-like attire and a headdress with feathers. He landed in a crouch and slowly stood up upon the temple. "JAGUAMON!!" he roared aloud into the night sky!
(End Cinematic moment )

As the light faded, they all saw Panthermon's ultimate form: the anthro panther adorn with the shamanistic attire of the aztec people. His presence was both awing and intimidating as he was now lit with the glow of the magma around him.

It was at this time that the attack at them came, Metalgreymon roared once more and launched his trident arm at them! As Zachary quickly got back, further from the claw, Jaguamon got into action. The agile cat-warrior jumped high into the air, avoiding the claw swipe. However, Jaguamon's jump wasn't simply to evade the attack. As the attack would end, Jaguamon landed square on top of the claw with a graceful landing!

Upon doing so-- he saw the large metallic cord, connecting Metalgreymon to his Trident Claw. Without wasting a moment, Jaguamon took off and sprinted up the cord which lead directly to Metalgreymon. If he would reach him from that close distance, he could launch a claw attack upon him, up close and in a blind spot where Metalgreymon couldn't retaliate.

"TWILIGHT CLAW!!" Jaguamon roared as he rushed to attack Metalgreymon, striking with glowing claws of light and darkness.

Even though Yana's curiosity clearly got the best of her and paid off - this time - everyone was pretty convinced this belonged to someone else, and those who didn't were not interested in the first place, Haru's scolding particularly having a strong effect on the dark haired Russian, making her cock her head down sheepishly and moaning, "B-but... Flarewizarmon was the only one who didn't attack us at first sight...", still, she heeded Haru's concerns probably more than a blonde knew, and promptly put the meat back in the chest. She didn't even consider this could belong to the only one who actually treated them nicely ever since they walked into this volcano, but in the end that didn't change anything. This food wasn't something Yana needed enough to go out her way and possibly steal it, and nobody else was in desperate need of it either, so she just put it back. She agreed with Vee more than anything, nodding affirmatively, "Hopefully he didn't forget it in here..." Ari was pretty indifferent to the whole thing. She understood not taking other people's stuff but after having come under attack time and time again by the various denizens of the volcano, she stopped caring about whether she'd end up hurting their feelings in the process. They moved on, with Yana taking a few more chugs of water, and commenting to Sebastian, "Yes, it's a good detail to keep in mind... But I hope we don't run into him, even if he is weakened, he might be too much for everyone here.", she'd answer, looking at him warily, perfectly aware that Sebastian had a score to settle with Giygas even more than Yana. But they wouldn't have much time to wander about it, as a mighty roar echoed through the volcano, sending a shiver down the girl's spine and making Ari stand at attention. The foe looked a metalgreymon, and it took every ounce of speed Ari had to dodge the attack, thankful her foe still had a long distance to cover. But unless a bulkier opponent came to stand in its way, more attacks would come and even the fast Gatomon wouldn't have a way to avoid them. "Tch... The real battle starts now it seems. Vee!", she'd call out, pouncing near him, "We have to finish this guy quickly or we'll be too drained for the main event!" Yes, the foe before them was powerful. But a perfect level oppoenet couldn't be the reason why everyone was in an uproar. Yana understood this well enough and darted over to Haru, looking into her eyes expectantly, "Haru-chan... Ari's right. We need to be stronger if we want to overwhelm this guy and move on!", gulping her insecurity, she blushed and offered the blonde her hand, with a surprisingly resolute look, "Do you mind doing that...?" More importantly, she was still convinced they had to hold hands for this to work, never having been told otherwise... [Part 1 here; part 2 incoming]

► oh it eats us alive Yes there's a scream inside That we all try to hide We hold on so tight But I don't wanna die

Sebastian Devaroux usagi Haruhi Ryuukami The ground was shaking. Both Walter and Claire paused, the blonde drawing her weapon instinctively- but despite her katana's strength, the woman knew that against an enemy that could shake the ground like this, her weapon may be of little use. Still, besides Walter, it was the only form of self defense she had- still better off than the other humans. The beast that revealed itself to them was massive. An obvious guardian to the Volcano, MetalGreymon clearly did not see them as friendly visitors- they would have to fight and kill it. The thought of this made corners of Claire's lips turn up just slightly, admiring their first serious opponent in the volcano as it roared, presumably an attempt to threaten them. The woman felt the bones in her body shake with the vibrations of the roar, though she was thrilled rather than frightened- in a sense, the feeling was almost akin to being on a roller coaster, only their lives were actually in danger. She was used to the idea. Though preferably such a thing would be prevented at all costs, it was still better to die here than die living a monotonous existence at home. "Kill it." Walter was ready- the foe was big and no doubt powerful, but he had no doubts in his mind that the combined strength of the group would be enough. The rabbit bent at the knees and gave just a hop before being engulfed in light, morphing into Crescemon. Temperature around the Digimon began to rapidly drop thanks to Cold Night's Light, but not to the point of unpleasantness. Especially to those who had been hindered by the heat, it was a blessing- at least, Claire thought so. And he wasn't the only one prepared for battle- Jaguamon appeared, another Ultimate ready for battle. Good- they would need more power for this fight, and the more they had in numbers, the better. Walter- now much larger, though nowhere near MetalGreymon's size- picked Claire up with ease at the sight of the anger the dinosaur displayed, leaping them both out of the danger of the Trident Arm. After placing his tamer down ( hopefully, with distraction from Jaguamon ), the Ultimate level Digimon whirled around, staying close to Claire for the moment. If something went wrong, surely she would need him, or so he thought- in this place, being out of arm's reach of his tamer was undesirable, if it could be helped. Metal blades glowing with energy, the Crescemon swiped at the air three times, creating three blades of energy that flew, directed at MetalGreymon's chest. "Crescent Archery!" With Walter's speed, skill and a bit of luck, hopefully they would strike the saurian's chest and numb it, preventing attack- anyone who had seen a MetalGreymon fight before knew that was commonly one of their most dangerous moves. If Walter could prevent use of those missiles even temporarily, the party would likely have a much easier time taking the monster down. Though really, striking anywhere would not be a hindrance, and he was hoping wouldn't be difficult at all- typically, bulky Digimon like this weren't known for their speed. Claire stood behind Walter for now, watching carefully- her eyes were not only on MetalGreymon, but were focused on the environment as well. The volcano was certainly still dangerous and unstable, and would not pause its active state just because a foe had appeared. Despite disliking the standby role, watchfulness was crucial in this situation, and she hoped the others would soon join the battle as well. Surely, Sebastian and his chicken would not hesitate to fight even now? Time to prove their worth, if any. "Claire speech." "Walter speech." NAME ATK DEF SPD WALTER 100% 100% 120% SPOILER: Click to show ○ PERFECT MOONLIGHT DANCER - Walter gains a speed boost under the light of the moon. This can manifest in one of two ways: during the day, the crescent symbols on his weapons glow to gradually simulate the effect of the moon, increasing his speed and evasiveness by 20% for every turn that passes, up to 100%. At night, this effect starts at an additional base 50% effect and is increased up to 150% at the rate of 20% per turn. As well, up to Ultimate level moves that would knock him off-balance or otherwise hinder his agility and ability to move have that effect nullified, and speed reductions have their effect halved on him. ○ COLD NIGHT'S LIGHT - With a natural affinity to ice and light, Walter takes 50% less damage from fire and darkness based attacks. As well, allies using light or ice based moves gain a 20% offensive boost in his presence. ○ CRESCENT ARCHERY - By swiping at the air with a superchilled bow, Walter creates three crescents of ice that fly toward the foe. As Walter's own speed increases with Perfect Moonlight Dancer, the speed that these crescents fly increase too, making them increasingly difficult to dodge as the battle goes on. These icey projectiles embed themselves into the foe for two posts, numbing that body part and rendering it immobile for two posts- if any attacks are used in that part of the Digimon, they will be disabled until the effect wears off. Effects do not stack. As well, only one body part can be numbed at once ( the first that strikes ), though this attack may be used to hit multiple locations. One post cooldown, 0/1. +20% power from Cold Night's Light.

Yana returned the good to its place, and hopefully the group wouldn't regret it later. The deed was done though and it was finally time to move on, and move on they did. Ever deeper into the heat hole, Yana and Zachary pulling up theclead, even though Sensation had claimed to be their party leader, which was odd because Claire was the most experienced... Naturally, Haruhi had some very clear sentiments regarding the composition of the group, and despite her friendship with Yana, found herself closer to Claire. It was fortunate too. Because as the group was greeted with the freakish mass of dragon, dinosaur and metal everyone froze for a moment. It stared at them, tiny eyes unblinking and furious resting within it's metal played skull while the group returned the stare, a mix of emotions running through the group. Haru shot a quick glance at the gathered company. The only two of note were Vee and Claire, who both had the faintest glimmer of a grin.... Things would change as the beast roared, and everyone had but moments to react, Panthermon Digivolved, as did Walter, who notably provided a pleasant chill that had gave no small amount of relief to Haru before he grabbed Claire and leaped out of the way of the monstrous metal claw careening toward them. Yana had the same idea as Haru it seemed, as she quickly bolted the back line. Ari pounced to Vee, who turned tail and ran with the humans as they rushed to avoid the claw propelled at them " Real battles don't start just cuz a giant monster makes you try harder, but yeah I get what your saying!" he would say as the quartet narrowly avoided the big, metal claw of metal greymon. Yana voiced her agreement with her digimon, and Haru was in no place to argue. It would take more than overwhelming this opponent to beat him, she highly doubted It would have been placed here because it could be so easily beaten. Still, Yana held out her hand, looking more determined than Haru had expected to ever see her. She wasted no time in seizing Yana's hand, her fingers slipping between the dancer's own gently, pulling her just a tad closer, as if the proximity really mattered. It wasn't something they had to do, surely, but this sort of thing likely only worked when they were in sync, and despite Haru having no fond memories of that mission, she did remember Yana was quite partial to hand holding... " Such a serious face... How can I refuse?" the blonde would say in a somewhat playful way. It was rare to see Yana wear such a resolute expression, something one might get from Haru or perhaps Claire. It was uncharacteristic of her, but it was nice to see. As the two touched hands, their digivices glowed, humming in unision. Vee stood as close to Ari as he could, as the DNA digivolution took place, their darts joining together. In the spot where the cat and dragon had once stood, there stood only a single entity now. Tall and lean, the odd looking fusion took a few steps forward, cracking its neck, rolling its shoulders as if such a thing were necessary for a digimon. It was always funny to Haru how... Cocky Vegamon was. Sure Vee had a bit of that in him but Ari didn't seem to. Perhaps it was the unision of the two that brought it out in the personality of the digimon. It stood there in front of its tamers, prepared for any sort of incoming attack from its affixed target. Once it was It lowered itself closer to the ground, arms out stretched with its legs cocked and ready to spring forward, the speed fighter honing its focus on the single target at hand... "Alrighty now~" the mixed voices of the two digimon coming from the single form would say with a little more glee than one should have facing down a creature like metal greymon. "Let's see where it's gonna hurt~!"
