Bones was just about to open his mouth when Nyao had activated her Cat eyes attack. The poor simple-minded Digimon closed his mouth causing the attack to explode. Bones had no idea why he had followed the stupid cat's order, he only took orders from his master, this was just embarrassing. He really couldn't do anything so he was helpless when gravity took a hold of him again and he was dropping right over Nyao.
Aeron narrowed her eyes, whatever that cat had done to her partner it was affecting him for the worst. She tried to give him orders but much to her surprise and dread he wasn't listening. Bones had really tried to follow her orders but found that he couldn't. That cat had done something to Bones and she was unable to snap him out of it, she helplessly watched as her partner plummeted to the ground
Battle Log Bones was successfully hypnotize Bones attack backfired and caused him damage Bones is now falling because of gravity right over Nyao

Thank God Nyao had saw the scenario of Bones falling right down on her coming. Had that not been the case there would likely have been a cat shaped pancake now. Katsura, however did not know about Nyao's awareness of the situation which is why Katsura suddenly screamed: "NYAO! WATCH OUT!" Katsura hid her face in her palms not wishing to see how this would turn out, but let's rewind back a bit for now. Nyao saw the explosion in Bones mouth and made a smug grin, the reason why Aeron couldn't command Bones was because Nyao kept an eye on him until Bones couldn't do anything about the fall anyway. At that moment Nyao ran away from Bones, not in a circle but a straight line. When Bones landed it was right next to her and (probably?) with his face first, if so he was technically free of Nyao's mind control. Katsura nervously removed the hand from her face, it filled her with enormous relief and also a single tear to see that Nyao was okay. But what about Bones? "Please stay down." Nyao said calmly to Bones, (since this is a situation where eye contact doesn't make much sense, Bones is free to disobey Nyao).
There was an atmosphere of anticipation, did Katsura win? Was Bones able to keep going and if so what was his next move? What did Aeron feel? Katsura and Nyao both stared at Bones and their faces was painted with their biggest question: What now?

Bones hit the ground with a hard thump, dust flew all over the area again. Bones ended up breaking eye contact with Nyao because he had fallen face first into the ground. Once he was aware that he had control again he forced himself up, his form flicked a bit he was reaching his limit, but he refused to go down like this. He roared in anger, but before he could charge at Nyao Aeron yelled: "Bone calm down and listen to me!".
Immediately the large dino like Digimon shut his mouth and listened, the dust cloud around him obscured his vision of the Gatomon. Aeron shouted again"Close your eyes and listen to me, whatever she did to you it hypnotized you, I'll guide you alright!".
Bones did not question his master and did as he was told, he closed his eyes and waited for his master's orders. "Charge forward and attack, use your close range attacks!" Aeron shouted. Immediately the large Dino charged, both his claws began to glow with a black energy. Once he was in range Aeron gave him the order to slash, as far as Aeron knew Nyao didn't really have any close range attacks, she had to guess that if they kept on her she would have a hard time.
Bones slashed vertically with his Large glowing claw"DARK CLAW" he shouted.

It turns out Bones still wanted to fight, at first Nyao prepared to defend a charge but then Aeron intervened. Aeron ordered Bones to close his eyes, again Nyao never intended her hypnotism to last long anyway. Bones having to literally fight blind was still a significant consolation prize considering the obvious disadvantage, due to this fact Nyao just shrugged so far at Aeron's tactics. And thus ended what Aeron probably perceived as normal fighting behavior, as Bones claws glowed a rather big red flag was Nyao not acting cautious but rather she looked... Excited? Bones got to slash Nyao almost free of charge and indeed there was a large wound for moment, while Nyao made a mixture of purring and masochistic moaning... Did Nyao enjoy this? Had this fight deteriorated into a live action version of 50 shades of gray? Perhaps the biggest red flag from Aeron's POV was Bones claws stopped glowing the instant he made contact instead the wounds on Nyao had caught the glow. The glow reduced the wound to the point where Bones might as well have used a regular attack, nothing extraordinary there.
Now why did Nyao allow such a close range? Contrary to Aeron's predictions Nyao was well versed in close combat. Now Nyao made one big fast punch to Bones head intending to win through KO, him fighting blind Nyao didn't expect much evasive capabilities from Bones. "Lightning Paw!"
Nyao got hit by Dark Claw Dark claw was reduced to regular attack due to Darkness Absorption. (Pokémon: It's not very effective...) Nyao attacked with Lightning paw
Lightning Paw: A regular pound at high speed, does moderate damage
Darkness Absorption: (passive ability, RAM Upgrade Plus) when in physical contact with Dark energy, Nyao can convert the darkness into digital energy for herself essentially healing her by the same amount. The ability also gives Nyao a natural resistance to harm caused by dark energy (no solo digimon below Nyao's level can harm her using dark energy, it will in fact make her stronger because this ability can keep up. When a digimon her own level attacks her using dark energy the damage is halved. A digimon one level above Nyao deals 2/3 the damage and so on)

Aeron watched as bones attack landed on the Gatomon, however, it seemed to not have done much damage. The orange haired teen watched with narrowed eyes, this was not good. From what she had just seen, it appeared that dark moves were not going to help them in this battle. That meant that they had two long range attacks and one short range, the teen gritted her teeth.
Bones growled in confusion, he knew he had hit Nyao he had expected maybe a yell or yelp of pain but never a purr. It had caught him off guard and the Nyaos attack would have hit if Aeron hadn't yelled out orders again.
"Bones! sidestep to the left!" she shouted, he immediately did as he was told and he had felt the wind of the Gatomon shocking attack, it scrapped his cheek just a bit. "now pivot and strike!" Aeron shouted Bones wasted no time and pivoted with his left leg, he charged up his tail, it shined like metal again, he opened his eyes again in order to see where the Gatomon was at and aimed to slam his tail into her "Iron Tail!"

You gotta hand it to Bones this agumon was determined and had the resolve of a rock, even Nyao had to acknowledge that Katsura though was more cynical she couldn't understand why Aeron would let her digimon suffer like that. In fact Katsura shock her head at Aeron for keeping this fight going. Nevertheless the fight continued undeterred.
With the help of a loud tamer Bones managed to know when do dodge most of the attack. He then pivoted with his tail that soon turned into metal once again. Now was Nyao's chance, since this was too fast to properly dodge and she wanted to make contact either way, Nyao raised her paws to protect her face. While this did only symbolic protection and led to her being thrown back onto Katsura. Katsura catched Nyao in the air, after almost falling over backwards she gently placed Nyao back on her feet to carry on the fight. Nyao now had a large bruise where the tail hit, but since contact was made Nyao could finally plant her tattoo on Bones tail. Again this was a heart tattoo with ominous red glow and said tattoo was painful which is why Aeron shouldn't blame Bones for behaving like he got a nasty bug bite on her tail.
With Bones already battle torn, Nyao turned to the defense. With the tattoo planted, Nyao did not feel the need to dish out more punishment. With any luck, Nyao could win through stalling.
Nyao was hit by the metal tail (contact was made) Nyao used Danger Love on Bones tail (DPS ensues) Nyao turned to defense.
Cool-downs: Cat's eyes (1/3)
Danger Love: Curses the enemy with a heart-like charm. Does minor harm over time for 3 posts (cool-down: 2 posts)

Aeron watched as her partner executed her orders, however, she was slightly surprised that Bones had managed to execute her orders. She watched as her partner Digimon pivoted and slammed his tale into the Gatomon. Aeron at first thought that they had finally managed to hurt the other champion level Digimon. However, she became suspicious when the Gatomon had blocked the attack with her paws, she had watched the Gatomon go flying backward and was caught by her tamer. Aeron didn't say anything but it confused her slightly, logically the other tamer would have gotten hurt by the speed that the Digimon was going, lucky for the girl she seemed fine.
Before Aeron could wander about the action anymore, a roar of pain from her partner caught her attention. She watched as he held his tail between his claws, she could barely make out a tattoo on his tail. Aeron bit her lip, she had made a mistake. She looked back over at the Gatomon and noticed that the Digimon had switched to a defensive stance. Aeron looked back at her battered and bruised partner, it was easy to see who would win, however knowing Bones he was going to keep fighting until the bitter end. So she merely watched, she was going to let her partner fire off one more attack before stepping in and dragging him off the battlefield
Bones hissed and let his tail go, he wasn't done just yet, he could still win. The stubborn Tyrannomon took a deep breath ignoring the pain in his tail, and his aching body"Pyro Storm!" he shouted and let loose a handful of fireballs.

As stated Nyao had turned to a defensive stance and not a minute too soon it seemed. Nyao had just seen the results of her gambit through by Bones holding his tail in pain, by now it was obvious who was going to win. But there was no time to celebrate yet, because it looked like Bones had one final attack up his sleeve. As he opened his mouth to shoot fire Nyao fell back again to the tried and tested strategy of running fast in circles, now with complete focus on running and evading. The added concentration by not trying to shoot and aim compensated for Nyao being understandly worn by the battle leading to her repeating her success by narrowly avoiding the fireballs. After the final fireball Nyao stopped to look at Bones.
Katsura too just stared expectancy at Aeron, she didn't want to keep on fighting for the sole reason she worried about Bones. She mimicked the word "Please", begging Aeron to throw in the towel. Katsura knew full well that actual words at such a distance was pointless.
Nyao narrowly evaded the Pyro storm but did not make an attack.
Cool-downs: Cat's eyes (2/3)

With that last attack Bones, energy was completely spent, he tried to fight it but in the end, he fell to the ground with a heavy thud. The moment he had hit the ground data surrounded him and burst to reveal that he had devolved back to his rookie form. The stubborn dino, however, was still growling, he began to drag himself toward the champion level Digimon. He refused to give up, he could still beat her. He needed to do this! he wanted to do this! his master was counting on him and he wasn't going to let her down!. She had already been let down by those around her! Bones refused to be added to those failures.
Aeron watched her partner as he basically dragged himself over to the champion level Digimon, this was just like her partner, she still could understand why he tried so hard. With a sigh, Aeron walked onto the battlefield toward her downed partner. Once she had reached the slow-moving rookie she bent down and picked him up from under his arms. Bones not expecting this yelped in surprise as he was picked up with much difficulty, he tossed a look over his shoulder and his neon green eyes widened when he caught sight of a familiar outfit.
"m-master, wait I can beat her give me another chance!" the rookie begged, he didn't thrash around because he did want to hurt Aeron in any way. Aeron gritted her teeth, ok he was a lot heavy then she had imagined, with a grunt she spoke "quiet, I'm trying to carry you here". Immiadetely the Dino like Digimon shut his mouth, Aeron then turned to Nyao and Katsura "it seems we have a long way to go, congratulations" the young lady said with no emotion in her voice. With that she turned and began to walk away, they had lost their first round but Aeron was now invested in this tournament, she would not lose again.

This time around Nyao couldn't be bothered to fight back for obvious reasons, namely that Bones quickly turned into a black agumon and was clearly exhausted. Instead she kept staring at him and this time around he didn't get to actually attack before, much to Katsura's relief, Aeron personally dragged Bones away from the battle. Katsura responded by walking up to Nyao who then jumped onto Katsura's arms. There was a moment of silence before Aeron spoke. "it seems we have a long way to go, congratulations" "I can't say I agree with your methods but your digimon seems to love you. At least promise me you take good care of him, he gave everything for you."
Katsura wanted to shake Aeron's hand but she had barely raised her hand before Aeron was leaving. Having just won, Katsura took a moment to let the audience reactions run its course and then she started to leave.
And that's a wrap, Spire I'm also sorry that I used Kitten fire. Until now it never occurred to me that self-buffs need to wait for attacks to end before use. Now that I know it won't happen again.

Well then! It had seemed from the very hotly contested battle that Nyao's agility was put up against Bones's durability, and, it seemed, Nyao's hit-and-run tactics had won out in this exchange.
"That has gotta be a hotly contested exchange for sure!" Luke said. "But, it seems, Bones just couldn't keep up, so Nyao is the winner!"
"Not to worry, Bones, ya did what ya could!" Bellamy encouraged. "But that's not the last we'll be seein' of these two! While Katsura and Nyao advance to the next round, Aeron and Bones still have a second chance for a comeback!"
With that, the overlying panel of the arena read the results of the match. While some in the audience held back their cheering due to the bitterness and brief displays of unsportsmonlike behaviour, well, it seemed the result was clear.
Katsura and Nyao advance to the next round, while Aeron and Bones will have a second chance in the losing bracket. The challonge bracket in the pinned thread has been updated.
Katsura also gets 2000 bits. Aeron gets 1000 bits.
