Trial by Fire and Smoke (Kitt)

In the past few days Dio had reached a sad, terrible conclusion that was driving him up a provervial wall: His brother was, for all intents and purposes somehow stronger than him despite having little to no training. But because of that, his power was wild, unstable, hard to control.
And while such knowledge frustrated the imp to no end, he knew there was a solution for this: training, of course! What better way to help out his brother while keeping Dio's feeble pride intact? So after some debating he figured the best way to test this out was by taking him somewhere outside the human world to train, and since Carlos was too busy at his job right now he had no choice but to leave without the human. Eh, not like he would notice, they could probably be back before dinner and he would be none the wiser.
But of course, he'd need someone else to help him out with this, someone to be Gio's punching bag sparring partner. Truth be told, Dio had a list of candidates, but after a short process of elimination he decided to go for the only one that he could both easily locate, and someone that would benefit from this endeavour as well. Why else would they choose to participate otherwise, if they would get no tangible reward?
Acquiring such a person had been...dissapointingly easy. It had only taken the imp a moment to "borrow" his tamer's digivice and used it to open two portals. The first one to reach the digital world, the second one to go get a (hopefully) willing participant.
But why choose the Spadamon known as Kitt of all people? Simple, after his little show of strenght a couple weeks ago Dio had taken something of a fondness for the little runt, almost as if he saw a bit of him reflected on him. That kid could get to high places with the right push...something Dio would be more than happy to provide! In exchange of him helping them out some, of course, but that was almost secondary to the service they would provide the kid, surely.
As such once the portal to the house in the Empyrean Skies was open all it took was a quick and swift movement and the twins were already walking out of a portal, hands carrying the still sleeping spadamon. After that? The two of them simply placed the sleeping spadamon in a makeshift soft bed made out of leaves, waiting patiently for him to open his eyes eventually.
"Can I wake him? He's been sleeping for a while now..." The blackguilmon asked, yawning. Clearly he was getting sleepy just by looking at Kitt.
"As much as I want to see his expression when he wakes up, he should still sleep. He'll need all the enery he can muster for what's to come."

Falling...
Like a shooting star, he was falling slowly through darkness. It was a sweet, relaxing feeling he hadn't felt since meeting Eris. He didn’t want it to end. The Spadamon’s hair was silver and styled into a long, spiky look, while his body was garbed in a navy blue coat with fur cuffs around his sleeves. A utility belt was wrapped alongside his waist with a pouch as well as his weapon, Blue Queen; its blades retracted so only the hilt was shown which was clipped on to his belt.
"Power sleeps within you. If you give it form, it will give you strength."
Kitt slowly opened his eyes as the voice he had heard in his head silenced—a voice that was completely foreign to him, yet was somewhat familiar. The feeling of floating left him as he landed on an equally black ground. He looked around curiously and saw nothing but pitch black darkness. He doesn't even know what he is standing on.
He took a step forward and everything changed. A flock of white doves flew out from under his feet and into the dark sky, a light shined down from above, lighting the ground below him. No longer was the surface he was standing on painted in pitch blackness, a circular platform at least 30 feet in diameter appeared from the light, made out of stained glass. Kitt watched the doves fly out into the distance until a voice brought his attention back to the present.
“But first, cease all conflict in your heart. Accept the past and carry the hurt.”
As the voice spoke, Kitt glanced down at the picture on the station. It was golden orange in color with an image of himself with his eyes closed. Surrounding his head and feet were small pictures of other Digimon. The Digimon were Eris, Opehila, Logane, and Dio.
He tilted his head in confusion. What conflict was taking place in his mind? He tried to speak to the voice that was talking to him, only for no sound to come out of his mouth. He was voiceless. After a few attempts to try and respond to the mysterious voice, a small ball of light appeared. The glass platform around him started to slowly shatter. With no other options left, he started to sprint towards the light, extending him arm out in the hopes it would lead him to safety, The last of the platform disintegrated, and Kitt grabbed to ball of light just in the nick of time. Then, the rays of the light started to expand around him, blinding him. It was warm and pleasant; the last thing he remembered.
“Don’t be afraid; there will be those to guide you to the right direction."
Slowly coming to, Kitt felt that he bed was...off. It wasn’t as soft and comfortable, rather it was flaky and somewhat coarse. After moving a bit, his groggy mind realized that what he was on wasn’t his bed, but leaves. He opened his eyes, only to yawn and laid back down, only to see two Digimon gazing at him: an Impmon and a Black Guilmon, the latter in which terrified him. Kitt leaped up yelping in surprise. He retreated a few feet away from them and crouched over in fear, hiding his face with his hoodie.
“W-W-Who are you?” He muttered, visibly trembling. “I’m-I’m not very tasty, I promise!”

Gio was somewhat surprised when the small white digimon finally woke up from his slumber and reacted so strongly upon seeing him. He'd tilt his head in confusion, looking back at forth between the Spadamon and his twin.
"Hm? Eat you? Why would I wanna eat you?" He scratched his head thinking, clearly far more confused than offended at that point. Why would he ever eat a digimon? Kitt was full of fur which would probably give him another stomach ache, you couldn't eat that! Or maybe he meant eating as in "loading"? "I thought it was bad to load digimon's data."
"It is." He replied simply, before making approaching the cowering spadamon, poking him slightly. "Don't worry kid, he's harmless, wouldn't even eat a fly."
"Of course not! Flies smell bad and taste just as bad too!" The guilmon said, visibly grossed out and offended at the mere thought of eating something like that. Now a butterfly? That he would happily eat. Or maybe a grasshopper even! Anything but flies.
At any rate, Dio simply kept gently poking and prodding at the spadamon, trying to get him to relax and stop being so afraid. He had to, else this training would take forever to complete.
"Come on, Kitt was it? Did you forgot about the Dark Lord Dio so easily?"

At first, Kitt didn't want to respond to the constant poking by the Impmon. He was content to stay in his curled up position until the two went away. It wasn't until the Guilmon said he wouldn't eat him, as well as the Impmon addressing himself as the Dark Lord Dio did he respond, peaking at the two from his hood. Dio...now where did he heard that name before? A metaphorical light bulb went off in his head after further looking at him.
"Dio," he respond, "As in Mister Dark Lord Dio Sir, from the Spartan Training Grounds?" His tail starting to swish left and right in a docile manner. He's one of Eris's friends if he can recall from their short meeting. "Ah! Forgive me for saying anything ignorant," he bent his head down. "I-I thought you were Digimon apart of some weird cannibal cult for some reason." He rubbed his hands slowly over his face, getting any eye crust from the corners of his eyes. He felt like he'd been asleep for years.
Once his eyes had adjusted to the moonlight, Kitt was able to take in his surroundings - which gave him a very clear message. He wasn't in his room. Heck he wasn't even in Luminas City anymore. He was standing on grass, short green blades of grass and the pile of leaves he had been lying on was flat in his body shape. They were in a meadow in seemed, which was littered with bushes and tress.
"Wait... Where am I?" Kitt got up to his feet slowly and stood on the spot. Pushing his hood off his head and running his fingers back through his hair Kitt continued to look around before turning his attention to the two. "Did you two bring me out here?"

Dio couldn't help but shake his head in amusement as he let out a rather melodramatic chuckle. Kitt was certainly a lot less...let's say assertive than when he had digivolved that one time. The difference between both forms was like night and day, and not just because of their looks.
"Heh, no need to be so formal kid, just calling me "Dark Lord Dio" will do, no need for Mister or Sir." He said with an amicable smirk, lightly flicking the spadamon in the forehead with a finger. Gio meanwhile scratched his own head, looking confused.
"But...that's just as long as-"
"Please, I may come from the Dark Area but I think I'm above cannibalizing other digimon, even for ritualistic purposes." Dio continued, paying no mind to the lizard, who simply huffed in annoyance at being interrupted. Dio did not notice. "Sides you look rather scrawny to be considered a single course meal."
While he said this while trying to sound encouraging, he must have realized how someone could take offense to such a comment, so tried mending it the best he could. Kinda. "No offense."
The devious imp quirked an eyebrow, but soon smirked again at Kitt's questions. Pleasantries were done, so he could get to the meat and potatoes of the whole deal now.
"I was hoping you'd ask that. You have been selected to take part in the Dark Lord's special premiun training course." He announced gleefully, letting his words sink in for a moment before Gio once again perked up, getting a bit closer to the Spadamon with a friendly and eager smile.
"I think he means you're going to train with us! At least that's what he told me." Now the question was, would the kid be ok with being dragged off his bed and unknowingly brought to a far off place just to train?

Kitt's head armor would start vibrating rhythmically after Dio flicked him with his finger. He grabbed both sides of it to stop it from shaking across his head even more. His eyes was in swirls for a moment before responding to Dio. "Oh, ok Mister- I mean Dark Lord Dio." He couldn't help it. It was in his nature to be polite and formal to others.
Dio answered the Spadamon's question, declaring that he had been selected to take part in a big training course. "Special Premium Training Course?" He questioned, titling his head in confusion. He raised his head to his chest when the Guilmon got a bit too close for comfort, only to lower it as he abbreviated it for him. Train? Was that why they brought him here? He frowned, seeing as that was the reason why they kidnapped him from his bed while he was asleep. As soon as Eris notices that he's gone, they'll be nothing stopping her in tearing the whole Digital World apart just to find him.
"Umm for what reason?" Kitt asked, folding his arms around. "I'm not exactly the type of 'Mon that trains a whole lot. In fact, I'm not a big fan of fighting in general since I kind of see not point to it unless it's absolutely necessary. So I don't know if I would be a good sparring partner for this...thing you two got going on."

Gio seemed quite upset for a moment that Kitt not only didn't seem thrilled about their training, but actually didn't seem to care for fighting in general! His ears flopped down as he looked contemplative for a moment...before he perked up once again. Maybe he just needed to convince Kitt to change his mind somehow!
"Aww, come on Mister Kitt..." Gio begged, his innocent eyes gleaming like those of a puppy, "My bro and I always play when we have the chance, he almost always says yes even if he's not that strong, so I'm sure you'll fight well!"
Dio meanwhile merely sighed, not all too amused over his brother basically saying he looked weaker than Kitt, and somewhat concerned over Kitt's aversion. He knew this was a possibility, but he wasn't about to give up just because the Spadamon was a bit apprehensive.
"That's normal, kid, not every 'Mon enjoys getting into a good tussle." He shrugged and shook his head.
"But that doesn't mean you can live the rest of your life without knowing how to defend yourself. Imagine if a big and mean Kuwagamon suddenly jumped from behind those trees..." He said whilst pointing to the greenery behind the spadamon. "...what would you do if it headed straight for you? You can't exactly outrun something that can fly, and I doubt you could reason with it if it was feral. Sure, the Dark Lord and his brother here would protect you, but you can't expect to hide behind someone stronger for the rest of your life. Living in fear is no way of living."
He said this with a knowing tone, one of a digimon that had spent far too many years of his life like that. Truth be told, Kitt reminded Dio of himself: some years ago he wasn't too different from him, just another scared and lonely kid left by the wayside in an uncaring world, left to fend for himself. But Kitt was different, he had gotten help way earlier than Dio had, he had gotten the friends he needed before the loneliness twisted him into a selfish creature. Before it was too late for him.
And that was...good. And Dio, while perhaps almost jealous, really didn't want this kid to go down the same depressing path as he did. And if he wanted him to get anywhere, he had to learn to defend himself. Even if his original reason for bringing him along was a selfish one, now Dio found himself motivated for far more than that.
"Sometimes fighting is not only the best way out of a bad spot, it's your only way out." He said, before patting the Spadamon's shoulder.v"And I know you have potential, Kitt. I can sense strenght within you."
He soon would change to a less serious tone however, his smirk returning as he gave him a somewhat playful nudge. "Not to mention that whole digivolution nonsense back when we first met, right? You sure gave us all a good scare."

Kitt was taken aback by Gio's plead for him to reconsider, his large, gleaming yellow eyes practically begged him to take apart of this training session. As much as he wanted to, he couldn't look away to avoid the cuteness as the Black Guilmon was literally inches away from his face. His face started to turn slightly red from embarrassment. How could he let a complete stranger make him lose his composure like that.
The somewhat cute moment was interrupted when Dio began to speak, imparting his words of wisdom onto the young Spadamon. Even though it wasn't considered an offense that someone like him didn't lie fighting, he could only lower his head down as the Impmon told him he can't live by hiding behind someone for protection if an evil Digimon were to appear. His brow narrowed in anger when he said that. Of course he knows he can't rely on people like Eris or Logane to protect him. He knows that too well. He's capable of fighting, but there has rarely been an instance where he had to defend himself. The only times where he did was before he met Eris and he had been caught a few times stealing food, only to fight his way out to avoid getting arrested. It was rough, but now he doesn't have to worry about stealing to survive.
He looked up to the Dark Lord when he expressed confidence that he had the potential to be stronger; to become something great. That statement took him aback for a sec. If what he said was true, then his oath to protect and follow Eris would become a reality, not a dream.
When Dio mentioned something about a digivolution nonsense when he first met him and Ophelia, he titled his head in confusion. "Digivolution nonsense? Whaddya mean? I've never Digivolved before, not even when Eris was going out of control." He took a moment to recollect what happened that day. "I know that you and Eris were fighting and then...nothing. I think a falling tree branch knocked me out of something."

Kitt's answer really took Dio aback, as he was certain Kitt wouldn't have forgotten such an intense day for him. "You...don't remember?" Could it be that his digivolution had been...accidental? It wouldn't be the first time he saw a digimon being overcomed with sheer emotion and digivolve into a near mindless fighting machine.
Honestly, that would have explained why he was so intent in hurting Dio even after the fight was done. Regardless this left Dio in an odd place.
For a moment the imp fell silent, quietly pondering if he should let the Spadamon know about what transpired that day. After some thought however, he decided that was something Eris would probably tell him some day and in a much more careful manner, so he decided to drop the subject entirely.
"Eh, don't worry about it too much Kitt. Point is, even if you don't digivolve today I'm sure you'll get something useful out of this training." He shrugged once again. "...if you choose to take it, that is." He added, after all they couldn't really force him to cooperate...well they could, but Dio knew better than to do such a thing.
Gio however, had no shame in insisting.
"Please think about it Mister Kitt!" He said with a beaming smile, even though it was clear by his somewhat twitchy tail movements that he was growing restless, and worse of all bored. Would their new friend agree or would he have to settle for training with Dio once again?

Kitt shook his head to Dio's question, still confused as to what he meant. Digivolution is the process by which Digimon grow and develop by accumulating enough data, which changes their appearance and makes them stronger. This process only happens naturally with time and age. To actually reach that state would consider to me a major development to a Digimon. So if what the Dark Lord said was true, he would have remember something like that. Did he really...
His moment of thoughts were interrupted by Gio's further pleads to reconsider. Kitt blinked, surprised. He wanted to keep up the tough-guy act since he was still not sure whether he should accept the offer, but find that very difficult due to the Black Guilmon's cute mannerisms.
"Umm....well..." Kitt started to fiddle his fingers nervously, wishing now he had Eris to get behind to, the way he would when he felt uncomfortable, or like he had made a faux pas. Then it hit him: this was exactly what Dio was talking about, how he can't expect to hide behind someone forever. This was something that was holding him back. If he wanted to protect Eris, he had to become stronger, whatever it takes.
Swallowing a lump in his throat, Kitt got on his knees and bowed to the two. "A-Alright! Please teach me how to digivolve Dark Lord Dio-sama!" he finally said, blurting out the words after much hesitation. "I'll do whatever it takes, anything to protect the things that matter to me!"

While Dio for a moment doubted if Kitt would agree, in the end the imp couldn't help but smirk and shake his head. That sure didn't take long. And though he had to admit, being shown this much respect was a nice change of pace.
"I knew you'd agree. You're a clever kid after all." He said with a pat on the Spadamon's back, tugging his hoodie slightly to get him back on his feet. Respect was all nice and good, but bowing was just a bit much. "Now follow me, let's get to it."
As for Gio? Well, to say he was bursting at the seems from joy would be an understatement.
"YAY!" He exclaimed, jumping and skipping around like a hyperactive kid after eating a box of cookies. "Thanks Kitt!" He'd say before he'd rush ahead of the duo, dissapearing behind the bushes. Dio could merely sigh, rolling his eyes a bit. "Yes I know, he's quite...something."
It was hard to believe they were related sometimes seeing the almost jarring contrast between the two in almost every way, but like human saying went: you don't choose your family. After a bit of walking Dio and Kitt would reach a big clearing with nice, soft grass and barely a couple of trees surrounding them, the best place Dio could have picked for their training.
Of course Gio was already waiting for them in there, sitting happily in the middle of the clearing while his tail swished back and fort like a happy puppy. His face lit up even more once he saw the two digimon approaching.
"Alright, we're gonna start with something easy first, then work our way up." He began explaining the hooded digimon, but would not get much farther before he was cut off by the sound of Gio rapidly getting up.
"We start now?!" He questioned excitedly and without even waiting for a confirmation, began making a beeline for the two of them!
"Wait Gio-!" Dio said alarmed, but it was too late, as the tall dinosaur was already lunging at the two digimons, fully intent on tackling them to the ground. If Kitt didn't act fast, he'd soon probably feel as if Gio collided with him with the force of a small motorcycle.
Training starts earlier than expected! Gio tries to tackle Kitt with nothing but his brute strenght.
[RAM Upgrade] (Passive) Gigantic Strenght: Strangely, it would seem Gio’s physical strength as a rookie is 50% more than that of a regular Rookie, though this doesn’t amount to much in practical combat, as it simply allows his basic attacks to be slightly stronger than the average rookie, as well as be able to lift things twice his size and weight with relative ease.

"I'll do my best!" Kitt said, lifted his head up to Dio when he tugged on his hoodie. Getting up, his eyes were gleaming with a bit of excitement, a bit uncharacteristic of him since he's usually well-reserved and not wanting to draw any attention to himself. But in this case, the attention was all on him, praise and all, so he didn't know how to react "grown up-ly" as he puts it.
He wasn't the only one that was a bit excited though, as Gio started to prance around for a bit before taking off, disappearing in the bushes. This left Kitt in a bit of disbelief, only to then let of a nervous chuckle to Dio's reaction to it. The Black Guilmon must really want him to train with the two of them.
After walking for a bit, following Gio, the two of them reached an open space with trees surrounding them; a space that evoked 'battle ground' to Kitt. They saw the Black Guilmon sitting in the middle, his face riddled with excitement. Kitt only got a little bit nervous looking at him. Sure there was nothing wrong with getting excited, but getting too excited would spell a bit of downfall.
His nervousness would come true as the tall raptor Digimon started to sprint at the two, before the Dark Lord could even finish what they were about to do. He was coming at them at full speed, intending on steamrolling them. With only little time to react, the Spadamon instinctively leaped up, vaulting over the charging Gio seamlessly.
Landing on the ground, Kitt was not very pleased at the surprised sneak attack. He could have at least waited until the Impmon gave them the go-ahead if he wanted to make the first move.

Even if Gio had heard his brother yell out it was too late to stop his charge, he had already committed to it. Dio, not wanting to be trampled by the charging dinosaur jumped to the side...and luckily, Kitt managed to avoid the attack as well, vaulting over the dinosaur with ease.
"You stupid lizard! I wasn't done explaining, wait till I give you the signal!" The impmon snapped angrily, his brother suddenly stopping in his tracks and looking quite upset, not unlike a dog that had just been caught breaking something. Dio glanced back at the Spadamon, a subtle hint of concern in his tone. "You're ok kid?"
He had to give it to Kitt, he at least had the reflexes to react in the nick of time to a sneak attack. If he had any initial worries about him being unprepared for this trial, most of them went away after this small incident. Kitt had potential, that much was obvious.
"I'm sorry, I just..." The guilmon said looking at the imp, ears hanging down in shame.
"Don't apologize to me, apologize to Kitt." Dio said crossing his arms, coking his head in the direction of the Spadamon, after which Gio turned to him and...did a little bow with his head.
"I'm sorry mister Kitt sir!" Dio had to resist the urge to groan: why was his brother so formal and respectful with anyone but himself? Regardless of that however, this eventful start did give the purple fiend an idea.
"At any rate, I think this is what the first part of your training will consist of: don't let Gio hit you for lets say...two minutes, alright? Use every tool you need to accomplish that." Seemed like a nice, simple way to start things out. Dio then turned his head to his brother with a stern look, and uttered a simple command. "Now you may start, Gio."
Gio replied with a firm nod as any sadness in his face seemed to wash away almost immediatelly. His body would tense for a split second, before he'd take a strong step forward as he kicked the ground, jumping into the air and bringing his hand down, either trying to slash at Kitt or perhaps karate chop him.
Gio once again attacks Kitt, this time going for a basic Helm Splitter overhead attack.

Getting up on his feet, Kitt would walk right next to Dio as he was reprimanding his brother's action. When asked if he was alright, the Spadamon would pound his chest with his fist. "Yep! More than ok, actually. That actually woke me up to be honest!" That little sneak attack actually reinvigorated his confidence. If he could manage to pull that off, there's no telling what he could do as the training were to go on.
Maybe the Dark Lord was right; maybe he does has some crazy untapped potential that needs to be brought out.
Kitt looked with sympathy as Gio apologize for attacking him without warning. "There's no need to apologize. You were excited and just couldn't contain it any longer, I understand." He usually wasn't the person to cheer someone up. It was usually the opposite with him as people tend to cheer him up whenever he was feeling down, especially Eris and Ophelia.
After that, Dio then explained the first part of the Dark Lord's Special Premium Training Course: don't get hit by Gio for two whole minutes. Kitt shuttered a bit. Two minutes is not a long time, but when it came to combat, even a minute could last for an eternity since your mind is on constant alert. But still, he wasn't going to back down. "Yes Mr. Dark Lord Dio!" He projected, placing his feet next to each other and putting his fist to his core in a salute.
When Dio gave the command, the Black Guilmon made a strong jump into the air, preparing to attack. Without anytime to waste, Kitt reached for the circular hilt attached to his utility belt, droned in a pristine white color along with low neon blue lights. With a push of a button, two curved blades materialized out of data from both sides of the hilt. It was a double-bladed engine sword he called Blue Queen, which had an ornately etched base, a combustion engine with three fuel gauges, and two exhaust pipes running along the edge of both blades.
Deciding not to take his chances at blocking, the Spadamon rolled out of the way. As he picked himself back up, he pulled his engine back into a stance, wind starting to circle around him. "Here I come, Gio...Aurora Blazer!" He slashed quickly with both blades, which released a wave in the shape of an X. Kitt was going to keep his distance for the most part, seeing as which he had the advantage when it came to speed.
Combat Log: Kitt dodges Gio's Helm Splitter overhead attack.
Kitt then attacks Gio with Aurora Blazer. Aurora Blazer - Kitt draws his engine blade back, wind circulates around them and he slashes, releasing a blazing wave in the shape of an X towards the enemy. If Exceed is activated, the wave will become more larger with a large blast radius, leaving a blue flaming trail in the aftermath. Cooldown is one without exceed. Two with Exceed. Depletes one fuel cell with Exceed.
Cooldown: 1/2

From the very moment he woke up, Gio already liked Kitt. Well, that wasn't too surprising, he liked everyone else by default, that was just how the blackguilmon acted. But something about the Spadamon's attitude resonated within him: he seemed nice, and friendly! But not like most of Carlos' older friends, something different entirely. That and he didn't seem nearly as mad as Dio for his mistep in their training.
It was probably that the reason as to why he was having so much fun having him as a sparring companion. Which of course meant he would hold nothing back with any of his punches.
Luckily for the Spadamon he managed to get out of the way in just a nick of time, the blackguilmon landing heavily on the ground as his claw sunk deep into the earth, cracks forming around him as if an object three time his size had been catapulted to where Kitt had been standing just a second ago. It took less than a couple seconds for the blackguilmon to bring his claw out from the ground, by then however Kitt was finally getting on the offensive, using his swords to send a wave of blazing x shaped wave in Gio's direction. The dinosaur was...honestly awestruck for a moment, staring at both the attack and Kitt with near starry eyes filled with amazement.
"So cool..." However that didn't mean he was just gonna sit idly and take it! "My turn, mister Kitt!"
With that he'd jump, not out of the way of the attack but rather straight at it, but just as it seemed they would collide head on the guilmon just...vanished. Vanished into thin air, a cloud of black smoke hanging idly in the place where he had been standing, the Aurora Blazer going through it and exploding against a tree in the back, splinter and sparks falling harmlessly around it. As for the black cloud? Well, it wouldn't take Kitt long to probably notice the cloud quickly closing in on him, as if it had a will of its own. Soon the black smoke would converge right next to the Spadamon...and reform back into the solid shape of the dissapeared lizard.
And if Kitt didn't react fast enough? He'd lunge at him with open arms, intent on either tackling him or grabbing him, after which well...let's say Dio hoped Kitt would dodge this one at least, else their little trainee meet face to face with Gio's take on wrestling moves...
Gio avoids Kitt's Aurora Blazer with Shade Form, and tries to get closer for a grab and perhaps a suplex.
Shade form: Gio turns his body into pure black smoke and disappears, before reappearing again at a desired location within 10 feet of distance. 2 post cooldown.
