The two sides were at a stalemate. Both had enough firepower that if they were to go all out, there would be casualties on both sides. Piedmon is none too happy with trio of would-be invaders. "Listen up, you wretched tramps! If you think I'm going to stand for you threatening my casa, prepare yourselves for the wrath I am about to unleash upon you from the fiery pits of Hell!" Kiyoko raises her staff and summons more minions. "If that's how you wish to speak with us, I will take much pleasure in dragging your carcass across the wasteland." Piedmon raises his hands to the sky and summons six of his T swords. The tension on both sides was about to boil over. And was Nyao ready to get back into action?
However, it was Ban and D who had stepped up to the challenge. He was willing to face what Kiyoko and Cambramon had to offer. Stingmon flies over towards Dante and Piedmon. "Ya, I don't know this guy, but I can tell that he's about to lay a serious beat down on your saggy asses! Ho yeah!" "Ah, your fury still ignites the passion I have for you like always." "Cram it, traitor." "Oh come on, that hurts." Pied sighs and shrugs his shoulders, and his swords disappear. He raises his palm towards Dante and Stingmon and sends them flying back out of the way with an energy blast. "Well I suppose if we are going to do this, we better do it right then."
The prince of Chaos rises into the sky. The ground begins to crack and break. The land below the Dark Fortress begins to break off from the cliff. Piedmon moves the fortress further out towards the lava down below. Cambramon moves their platform further back, and creates a surface on top of part of the dark fortress. "You have challenged me for the right to rule the dark fortress. I accept your challenge. We will fight until there is no one left standing on one side or the other." "Well that's a little harsh." "Quiet, Revan!"
Kiyoko turns to Taomon and nods. "Very well then. Taomon will face Oujamon." "Excellent. Now we just need a place for the audience." Piedmon waves his hands around in the air, but nothing happens. "Oh, looks like I have exhausted most of my energy. Such a pity." The rest of the group will have to watch either on the top floor of the fortress or inside the towers. "Taomon, just like we practiced. When the time comes, you know what to do." Stingmon and Dante fly over to one of the towers and look for the girl with the BlackGatomon that seems to hang out with Piedmon. "Is this the right tower?" "I don't know. We need to find that girl." "What do you think she's doing siding with Piedmon? Who wants that creep around?" "Maybe there is more to people and Digimon than meets the eye." "Hey, I've known Piedmon for eons. He makes Shirou look like a functioning member of society."
Piedmon sends Revan and Gazimon inside the fortress to go retrieve the couch. The Prince of Chaos lays back and puts his feet up. "Wonderful. Now if someone could fetch me some wine, that would be great." "You sound like my old boss." "Sigh, here I am, sitting on the sidelines again. Always a bridesmaid, never a bride. The stage is where I belong!" "Uh, don't you think you overdid it with moving the fortress out over the lava?" "I did not overdo it, I did not." Taomon starts things off by releasing several seals in the air designed to stun Digimon on contact. She surrounds the seals in front of her and sends them slowly towards Oujamon.

Oujamon frowned at Piedmon fully accepting the terms, now having the flyers take the castle would be a direct lie, well, they can still rescue the hostages no problem(hint hint Kat), since the castle is undefended at the moment. He cracked his neck, and watched his opponent fall to the arena, smirking, this was obviously the type who didn't like to fight up close and personal. He crossed his upper pair of arms, "You know you can't expect those snail-ass Post-Its to hit me, right?" He said, insulting Taomon's talismans due to being felt taunted by their sluggish attempt towards him. He recognized what this move was: it was just an attempt to keep him away, as he expected. He wasn't quite sure what those papers did, but he knew touching them would be idiotic. Since he couldn't get close just yet, he casually jumped over the nearest Talisman, before slamming the ground, "Thunder Drop!" He yelled, firing a ground-based shockwave towards Taomon, the shockwave would land a decent shock against the magic-user.
Move used: Thunder Drop (Leaps up them falls down, landing a lower fist on the ground, resulting in a lightning-element ground-based shockwave, cooldown: 1 post) Cooldown: 0/1

Nyao was ready to get back in action, in fact Katsura would have much rather been outside with her new friends. "I still think we should have stayed, I feel terrible for leaving them behind." "Katsura, Ban probably knows what he's doing." "I don't know, there's something about him I don't like." "Hmm?" "I mean... Don't get me wrong, he's been treating me well and all but he kept talking about how much he wants to take over. Piedmon don't need that kind of bad ideas."
Nyao made a sigh as she peeked on the girls, they did seem like they could use some help fighting their dark army, something Nyao was definitely qualified for. It became cold down Katsura's back when Piedmon seemly ran out of power. They have reached a door on the floor level. Coincidence will have it that this door will lead them to the dungeons. "Please Nyao, there must be more we can do!" "Sigh, let's spend an Arcana-card then."
Katsura nodded with newfound encouragement and took out a card. "Digi-modify!"
As Katsura swiped the card, Nyao found herself holding a glowing card. Strangely she wasn't surprised at all, Nyao held up the card an spoke directly to it. "Okay card, solve our dispute. How do we stop the invasion of Piedmon's fortress?"
(OOC: Spending the card to get the thread on rails, Dante please voice the card's response )
Card Name: Arcana Draw Type: Modify Rank: Silver Duration: 1 Post The target Digimon draws a luminous card from its wrist, often after asking a pivotal question. The card they draw from the deck advises them as to whether the next course of action they take will bring fortune, tragedy, both, or neither.

Oujamon is not intimidated by Taomon's seals. He accurately determines that this is a defense technique. Oujamon's Thunder Drop sends out a shockwave along the ground that connects with Taomon for the full effect. Piedmon takes delight in Ban and D dropping it down on these intruders. "Yes, don't hold anything back! Show Taomon what it feels like when you step out of line." Kiyoko is upset her partner was damaged. "It is time to go on the offensive. If we are going to defeat Piedmon, we must subdue his allies one by one." "Yes, Kiyoko. I will not stop fighting evil for as long as there is injustice in the Digital World."
While the battle wages on outside, Dante, Stingmon, and Lalamon have gone off looking for either Katsura and Nyao, or the captured Raziya. Meanwhile Nyao and Katsura have reached the entrance to the dungeons. Katsura decides to use a luminous card to determine the result of continuing onward. The card's answer is "Both Success and Tragedy." Down in the dungeons, both Raziya and Piddomon have been returned there by the dark entity being manipulated by Kiyoko and Cambramon with their combined magic. But would it be so easy to rescue them? After Sealsdramon was able to release them before, there would likely be greater measures put in place to protect their advantage.
Dante explores the dark fortress. The ground is covered in piles of black goo composed of data. *Sniff sniff* "Whoah! This place smells worse than the downstairs bathroom!" Lalamon covers her face and waves her hand. "Stingmon, you remember the layout of the dark fortress, right?" "Of course. This is where the Dark Triad plotted our takeover. We lived in luxury with more servants and lackeys than necessary. The door to the dungeons is southeast of here, on the ground floor." As they are continuing on, suddenly Stingmon starts to shake violently. He grabs his chest and lowers to the ground. "Dante, w-what's happening?!" "Argh, Stingmon!" Dante checks on Stingmon. "What's the matter, Stingmon? What caused this?!" "I don't know. All of a sudden I felt this, presence. My energy level suddenly plummeted."
Kiyoko raises her staff, casting a spell on Taomon. "By the divine light, protect Taomon from thunderous woe." Kiyoko grants Taomon a strong resistance to lightning energy. "What the? Since when can Piddomon's staff do that?" "Maybe Piddomon is so worthless, he doesn't know how to use it properly." "He did mention it is a holy relic he stole when he left the order. The strongest weapon in the hands of a fool is like a dull blade." Taomon levitates into the sky a few meters. "Talisman Veil!" Taomon spins her staff around and creates a thin sheet comprised of holy energy. Taomon tosses the veil in the air, and it unleashes a sea of holy flames down towards Oujamon. It is about 10 meters by 15, so while it covers decent ground, it is avoidable.
Dante isn't sure how to help Stingmon. "Could this be another one of Cambramon's tricks? Can you try Digivolving to get your energy back?" "Alright, Stingmon... Digivol- Digi... oooh, Dante..." Stingmon's body starts fading away into data. "No this can't be happening!" Dark energy begins to rise in the room. Dante holds onto Stingmon's hand, as he disappears completely. His lime green colored data floats in the air, spiraling around aimlessly. Suddenly Dante hears a voice behind him. "At long last, I shall have my revenge on you pathetic sheep." Dante turns around and sees someone he never thought he would see again. "Mistress?!"

Oujamon stood, from his drop, rotating his shoulders, as they felt slightly stiff from the dropping attack. He raised his brow at Taomon's speech about "Fighting Evil and Injustice", and crossed his arms, all of them, "Injustice? Evil? You think you can solve that by fighting? With that plan, you and your partner will be fighting until you drop dead. Can you kill all weeds by punching them all? Evil's roots are much deeper than you think." He retorted, before sighing, "Whatever, enough talk, show me this endless pool of strength you say you've got." He ordered, as the girls cast an incantation onto their combatant. He chuckled, "Congratulations, you've disabled exactly one of my attacks, I hope it was worth it." He took a stance, as the wave of energy formed, refusing to move, "I hoped I could save this for your smug face, but this'll have to do." He said, as his jets fired up, but he stood completely still, Inhaling, as he drew his arms back, "Lion Rush!" He yelled, throwing a mighty barrage of punches, with monstrous force from his jets. The sheer force of his punches weathered away at the incoming flames, he grit his teeth, as he kept throwing punches, before (Burst! RT) rearing back his top right fist, and slugging a final blow (Y), dispersing the fire, and sending a small shockwave throughout the arena, which wouldn't be able to hurt or even move Taomon, as it was little more than a rushing breeze by the time it reached her. He stood straight, glaring at her. His fists were scorched from the fire, but still functional, therefore, he started marching casually towards Taomon's general area, despite her being airborne.

After listening to the card stating that both ways leads to tragedy and success. It became clear to Nyao that their recent dispute was a tie. A 2 second long staring contest with Katsura later and the duo had made peace. Katsura and Nyao looked at the door. "Sorry about earlier, I can't let you in danger." "It's okay, so what do you think is in there?" "I don't know, ironically it could be dangerous. There's only one way to find out." And with that Nyao grabbed the handle and opened the door. It turned out to lead into the dungeon, it looked like... Well a dungeon, aside from the black goo on the floor nothing stood out. Katsura and Nyao thus started exploring. "Hello?" Katsura said causing an echo. Of all the inmates, 3 in particular caught their attention. The first one was a devimon (yes Dante that devimon) Katsura stood for while lingering at his cell as if he was a zoo animal until Nyao intervened. " Come on now that one is most likely in here for a reason."
With that Katsura moved on to someone that definitely looked out of place, a Piddomon missing his staff and a human girl named Misty, not that Katsura knew her name at this point.
"Umm why are you in here?" Katsura asked confused

Katsura and Nyao have entered the dungeon. Raziya and Piddomon (still useless) are trapped behind a magic barrier. In the corner sits a man wearing black plate armor. He's playing a cute melody on some kind of strange flute. Upon hearing them enter, the man stops playing and looks over at Kastura and Nyao. "Oh, are you here to rescue the prisoners? I'm here to guard them. Not that you would likely be able to free them anyways. My master's magic barrier is keeping them sealed up nice and safe." The man rises from his chair, and lifts up a giant hammer and large iron shield. "My name is Gunner, and my purpose in life is to serve my master's will. I'm also a skilled blacksmith. I apologize for what I am about to do." Gunner steps forward, raising his hammer and shield. He throws his hammer towards Minervamon, sending it spinning through the air. It was easy enough to dodge, but the hammer circles back around and returns to Gunner. It will be much more difficult to dodge the hammer as it returns.
Ban is able to shield himself from Taomon's veil by assaulting the holy flames as they reign down. The attack only deals minor damage to the Ultimate level's fists. Oujamon scolds Taomon for choosing to fight until evil has been vanquished. Kiyoko and Taomon didn't know Ban and D well, but if they did, Kiyoko would no doubt have problems with some of Ban's beliefs on the philosophy of power. "I would rather stand by truth and justice than see either world fall to tyrants. Balance between the Human World and the Digital World must be preserved at all costs." Since the indirect approach wasn't working for Taomon so far, she decides to get up close and personal. Not knowing just how strong Oujamon is at close range, Taomon descends down towards Oujamon, and unleashes a series of strikes and kicks from different angles, charged up with holy energy behind every blow. Time would tell if this bold move would pay off.
Dante can't believe it. Stingmon has just been turned into data, without so much as even a battle. What was equally shocking was who he saw. A woman with long blonde hair, wearing a white and gold breastplate (tee hee) with white robes. A violet aura of energy spirals around her. She looks mostly like the first time Dante encountered her. But every now and then, her beautiful snow white face starts to distort, as her data is in an unstable state. "At last, Dante, we were always meant to be together. I have missed you. It has been so long." "What did you do to Stingmon?! How are you even here?"
The Mistress raises her hand, and absorbs Stingmon's data. "As a Goddess, I possess knowledge of superior magic that even fellow Goddesses cannot protect themselves from. With the power of two Goddesses, no amount of Digimon or their feebleminded Tamers can stop me. You see, after you defeated me so long ago, I escaped to another dimension. There I was free to carry on as I wished, but I just couldn't stop thinking about my failed takeover. I discovered a way to return to the Digital World, and I have been plotting my revenge for months. I have been pulling the strings this entire time. And now, everyone standing in my way has been lead here. With this power, I will eradicate all of you, and ascend to Ruler of all Creation." "If Stingmon was still here, he would be telling you how crazy you are. I'll never join you, and neither the Human World or the Digital World will ever succumb to your wrath."
The Mistress gently glides over to Dante. Her presence is overpowering. He can feel her aura of energy radiating out. "Come now, Dante. Submit yourself to me just as you did before." The Mistress grabs Dante and kisses him on the mouth. Her mind control starts to take over, as Dante falls under her spell. Dante kneels down and bows to the Mistress, as Lalamon watches on in horror. "Arise, Dante. There is still much to be done." Lalamon takes off running. The Mistress raises her hand and unleashes a psychic blast, pushing Lalamon against the wall. "Pathetic creature. Still, I may have some use for you. Run while you can. For Azetramon, the most powerful Goddess of them all, shall undisputedly reign over all creation." The Mistress and Dante disappear in a portal of psychic energy.
So Oujamon is battling Taomon, while Katsura and Nyao have come across an unlikely blacksmith guarding Raziya and Piddomon. Piedmon is watching on the sidelines with Revan and Gazimon, while what is left of Pheslesmon's former employees recover from the battle with the dark claws. And now the Goddess Azetramon has returned after a lengthy absence, absorbed Stingmon, and has taken control of Dante. All the while, the Dark Fortress now lurks over a sea of scorching hot magma. I don't know how, but this is all somehow Piddomon's fault.

Oujamon frowned, at Kiyoko's response, and even more so at Taomon's next plan of action. She was a fine martial artist, up close and personal, but she didn't have four arms, and wasn't in any way a master at close combat. After a brief moment of him simply parrying the attacks, before his lower pair of arms blocked two blows from her fists, before grabbing her wrists and throwing them to either side, "Real Naive", he muttered, as his top pair threw themselves at her face, but stopping just short as their jets activated, as he leaped up, kneeing her in the face, using his Hammer Crush technique. "The only way to solve that permanently..." He turned away from his opponent, Dropping his fists, "... Is to change this entire world. And you can't do that with strength alone." He explained, as he separated, and Sealsdramon looked back, at the castle, and his foe, as Ban jumped back up to his spot, feeling satisfied with that battle, as he exhaled, breathing heavily from exertion. D simply stopped, "Hey... Do any of you feel that?" He asked, glancing around, he wasn't sure, but he was always receptive to his surroundings as Sealsdramon, and something felt... Off. "Hey, uh, I think something's up. In the castle, I mean." He said, not sure what exactly those rumbles were, as if something ancient was moving about in the castle.

Ahead of them inside the dungeon there was a man in black armor sitting on a chair. This man was without doubt the resident warden. At first Nyao would like a word with him, especially after hearing that his name was Gunner and some magic barrier kept the prisoner inside. But that was obviously not gonna happen, before Nyao could even ask who his master is, Gunner, who apparently was an renowned blacksmith, had already thrown his axe after Nyao.
Nyao instinctively dodged by stepping to the side, Katsura followed suit by going down on the floor. When it came back Nyao spun around and held her shield that grew into an enormous great shield.
"DOOOONG!" It said as if someone hit an oversized gong gong. With the spinning momentum ruined by the impact of the shield, the axe fell down in front of Katsura. The biggest problem of throwing your weapon? You lose them afterwards. Nyao promptly shrunk her shield to a more manageable size.
"You know Gunner, initially we were just passing by to help Piedmon defend his fortress. Thanks to you, I know for sure we're in the right place."
On this words Nyao took out her giant sword, in a threatening manner, while she turned to Gunner. "You want to fight me? Too bad you already lost your weapon."

Taomon got more than she bargained for taking on Oujamon in melee combat. After a swift knee strike, the wielder of spirit magic drops down, defeated. The twins separate into their Champion forms. Taomon struggles to get back up. "You fight well. I underestimated your strength." Kiyoko is disappointed her partner was defeated, but is more concerned about her well being. "It's alright, Taomon. You can return to your Rookie form to conserve your strength." Taomon devolves down to Renamon, and returns to Kiyoko's side. Piedmon stands up and applauds the duo's victory. "Marlevous! Simply marlevous!" Gazimon scratches his head. "Uh, don't you mean mar-ve-lous, new master?" "Hold thy tongue, rodent!"
Nyao saw Gunner's hammer flying towards her and dodges the attack. Somehow Nyao predicted it would return for another hit, and uses her shield to stop the hammer in its tracks. Nyao and Katsura were more certain than ever that whoever is attacking the dark fortress needs to be stopped. These strange foes didn't care who they hurt. Gunner stands there, cowering behind his shield. "Oh look, you blocked my attack. Now I find myself hammerless, and I don't like this unusual feeling." Gunner just stands there with his shield ready. Was the blacksmith defeated so quickly? It was hard to tell by his calm demeanor and dry tone.
On the outside of the fortress, the femme fatales were looking for blood. Cambramon stretches her arms and loosens up to prepare for combat. "Well, looks like that means it's my turn now. Kiyoko, could you give me a passionate introduction?" This was out of the normally reserved Kiyoko's skillset, but she gave it a go. "Oh, okay. Ahem... presenting, the dangerous magician that uh, will shock the world." "Come on, that was terrible. Huh, looks like I'll have to give the introduction myself." Cambramon disappears in a cloud of smoke. Fog begins to rise around the fortress. A stage rises up with a large purple and red present in the middle. Cambramon's voice can be heard coming from different angles.
"Presenting, the illustrious and beautiful, most powerful magician of all time, I've got more spells than a graveyard on Halloween, my illusions will dazzle the masses like never before, feast your eyes on the one, and only, Cambramon!" The present bursts open with confetti flying everywhere, as Cambramon appears and strikes a pose with her hands high in the air. (Piedmon) "Sigh, only Cambramon shares my love for theatrics. Maybe I shouldn't have been so hasty to give her the boot." "Now then, who wants to be my first victim?" Revan eagerly stands up. "I have been sitting on the sidelines long enough. If I'm ever going to prove my skills, I must take on even the most unconventional opponents."
"Are you certain, Revan? Your abilities have come far, but you are still a Human." "Yes, my lord. It would be my honor to fight on your behalf." Revan takes a knee and bows to Piedmon. The prince of chaos draws one of his Tru- I mean blades, and offers it to Revan. He rises up and grabs the sword from Piedmon. Revan draws his sword as well and heads to the arena to face Cambramon. "Really? You're going to challenge me, Revan? Hang on a bit." Cambramon turns around to talk to herself. "What am I going to do? I can't hurt my sweet little Revy-poo... Now is not the time to get emotional. I need to focus... Still his long soft hair, his pale skin, that slender body and those legs that go on for days... Enough! You will fight Revan, and then later you can find another dreamboat to ogle... No! I want Revan! And/or Dante."
Back in the dungeons, Gunner has a standoff with Nyao and Katsura. While he didn't have his hammer currently, he did still have that giant shield. Gunner decides to ask a few questions, perhaps in an attempt to stall. "I can tell you are quite a capable fighter there. What is it that you are doing lurking around this dark forsaken place? Do these two prisoners have some value to you? I wonder what my master would think of the two of you." For the time being, it seems like Gunner is hesitant to attack. His motives were hard to read. One thing was clear, he was completely loyal to the one he calls "master". "Although I don't personally care what happens to these two, I would never go against my master's orders. If you wish to free them, you'll have to take me out of the picture first. But then how are you going to break through the barrier? I can feel the tension rising. It pleases me. Like a puppy licking your face, or another small critter. Preferably not a kitty though, because their tongues feel like sandpaper. That's a weird word, tongue. I wonder how it is spelt. You see, I'm not exactly that well read. I believe it is spelt an unusual way. Then again you probably speak Japanese like most humans I have met. Tongue, tu-ung, is that one syllable or two?" Gunner continues rambling for quite some time.
Gunner isn't the only one blabbering, as Cambramon is still talking to herself prefight. D feels a strange presence coming from inside the fortress. Was there another working alongside Kiyoko and Misty? Piedmon sends Gazimon to fetch some bottled water and healing supplies for Ban and D. Finally Cambramon lets out a frustrated sigh. She turns around to face Revan, and blows her hair out of her face. "I'll try to go easy on you, Revan." "Do not hold back, Misty! Revan must be even more delusional than you if he's willing to fight you. Either that or he has a secret weapon he hasn't revealed." "Oh don't worry. It won't take long, but it will be fun, wild, and crazy." (Piedmon) "That's what she said." Revan raises both his blades, and approaches Cambramon with caution. The magician stands still, waiting for Revan to strike first. Revan dashes forward with a quick slash, but Cambramon easily dodges back. Revan doesn't let up, continuing to attack with his blades. Cambramon starts making a joke out of it, posing in between dodging attacks. Cambramon gets a little too arrogant, and Revan lands a strike right to her chest, slashing her across her stomach and cutting through her outfit, revealing pale skin with a soft pink color. Though not as frightenly pale as Revan. Piedmon's 2nd in command has landed the first hit, but Cambramon hasn't even begun to pull tricks out of her sleeve. Maybe she can't help herself but hold back against the dream guy of any preteen emo girl. Love hurts.

D shrugged, "Yeah, you were pretty tough, just remember that next time, I won't need the old man to help me kick your ass, got it?" He said, pointing at them, "feel free to call a rematch at some point, one-on-one, no magic staff, sound good?" He asked, not really waiting for an answer as he already jumped back up to where Piedmon stood. Ban turned, addressing the human and her partner, "You both have a strong spirit, do not let it be broken. I can only suggest looking for a more permanent solution, violence breeds violence, and as a result, strength is this world's most important currency." He stated, before turning away, and returning to Piedmon. It seemed a battle between what was basically two strong humans was about to take place. He was interested in how humans would fight, especially this Revan. It was obvious they weren't naturally as strong as most digimon, therefore, they must rely on skill and weaponry. This would definitely be interesting. D, however, wasn't as sure, as he still felt something was... off. He leaned over to Piedmon, "Hey, we haven't heard from the castle in a while, shouldn't hey have freed all the prisoners by now or something?" he asked, glancing around, trying to spot any sings of movement from the castle.

Now that the initial violence was over, Katsura and Nyao could start a conversation. Not necessarily a friendly one but at least something more civilized than hitting each other on the head. And thus they both decided to play along with Gunner. The first thing Gunner asked them about was why they were here and why those prisoners interested them. Nyao was rather blunt about that one. "We're friends of Piedmon, shouldn't that be enough motivation?" Nyao gestured to a nearby window implying that the events outside with the femme fatales was more than enough reason for an ally of Piedmon to visit the dungeons. Clearly the Cambramon and the rampaging hands and ghouls should be enough of a hint that this was a war situation and those inmates could be prisoners of war for all they knew. "Your turn, I can understand how a devimon could end up here but what is a Piddomon and a human doing down here, in times like these? Also who is this master? Phelesmon? Those chicks outside? I doubt it's Piedmon given your hostility."
For now Katsura made a mental note that they needed Gunner alive if they were to release any captives whatsoever from the magic barrier.

For now, it wasn't a battle of strength between Nyao and Gunner, but it had become a battle of wits. Nyao says that they are friends with Piedmon, and have all the reason they need to intervene. "Is that so? Friends with a sociopath? Though I guess I know what it is like having someone like that around. My master can reign the hellfire down on the peasants, that much is true." Gunner lowers his shield and lets out a chuckle. "Well I don't know what you see in them, but have at it. Go ahead, I won't stop you." Gunner turns and walks back to his chair. Katsura and Nyao could either try to break the barrier, convince Gunner to reveal how to break it, or attack Gunner and hope there is enough left of him to talk. Piddomon and Raziya are banging their fists on the barrier trying to escape, but they can't hear what they are saying.
D talked some trash with the scorned ladies. Renamon was none too happy to see this postgame heckling, but D is too far away, and she lacks the energy to continue. It sounded like this might not be the last time that they face each other. It was Ban who brought some sincerity to the moment, complimenting Kiyoko and Renamon, and encouraging them about strength. Gazimon takes note of Ban's actions, preaching even to the enemy. Ban goes back and sits down by Piedmon. "Interesting. So do you believe accumulating strength will ultimately solve everything? Or at a certain point, does that power cost you everything?"
Both Ban and Piedmon were eager to see how Revan would fare against the chaotic magician. Revan takes up a defensive stance, keeping the blades close to his chest. Cambramon realizes that she can't take this fight for granted. She was going to have to risk hurting her crush. As Revan goes for another swing, Cambramon summons a magic box around her, and Revan's sword bounces off. He opens the front door on the box, but Cambramon isn't there. She appears behind him and knocks him into the box with a magic blast and shuts the door. "And now for my next trick, I'm going to turn Revan here into a pin cushion!" Several swords appear around the box. Cambramon jams then inside the box, as Revan squirms around inside to avoid the blades. "Don't think your tricks are going to work on me!" Revan builds up energy. His sword from Piedmon starts to turn red hot. Revan slashes open the back wall of the box and escapes. "Come on, Revan! You're ruining my trick!" Cambramon makes a portal underneath Revan. He falls through before reappearing in the air, and falls straight to the ground, landing hard and dropping his swords. "Hang in there, Revan. Teach this treacherous harpy a lesson!"

Ban didn't turn to look at Piedmon, but leaned back, waving his hand, dismissively, "Strength is a tool, a means to an end. And nothing else. For me, strength is just one of my steps. Strength alone cannot solve my issues. But it is more than welcome, especially if there are those who directly oppose my ideals. Especially with how... radical some would think of my ideas. I do prefer to not be violent, but that is not an option for everyone. Not for those who want change. Strength is something that is required, if you wish your voice to be heard. No one listens to the weak, as the weak are considered weak in all respects, even when their abilities are extraordinary for other uses, if they cannot fight, they will simply be cast aside, for those born for combat, they will be the ones to thrive." He said, calmly watching the fight, noticing how sloppy Cambramon's attacks are, as she seemed to be avoiding any form of conflict, despite being the one to instigate it, and revan was fighting with all his vigor, if this kept up, even the tricky Cambramon will fall quickly to Revan's blade. D sat down, unable to shake the uneasy feeling in his gut. There was something he was missing, a bigger picture he was missing. He just needed to figure out what it was.

For now there seemed to be a stalemate between Nyao and Gunner, without his hammer Gunner seemed like no match for Nyao. Then again his knowledge about the magic barrier made him too valuable to just beat up and now that they had initiated a cease fire it didn't seem appropriate anyway. Nyao threw a rock on the barrier, nothing amazing there and Nyao didn't seriously expect it to do any harm to the barrier. The point of the rock throwing was merely a lazy way to see if slashing the barrier with her sword was a better idea than a man peeing on an electric fence. It was also subtle demonstration of her frustration over this situation.
Katsura heard Piddomon and Raziya banging from their cell, making it easy for her to pinpoint their accurate location. "Hmm"
What was that about did Katsura have an idea? It seemed like it actually as she looked inside Piddomon's cell. Then she walked back around the entrance to the tower. It made Nyao a little puzzled to see Katsura acting like that. Then Katsura took out her digidevice and tinkered mindlessly with the buttons. A moment later, she pointed at the stairway with her digidevice and a portal started forming. Now instead of leading into a stairway Piddomon was standing right in front of her with nothing preventing him from simply walking out of his cell.
"Umm hi, would you like to get out?"
Nyao was speechless Katsura had just vaporized a simple transportation function into a device for breaking others out of prison in less than 2 minutes. And not only that she seemed clueless to how amazing that feat was.
Digi-Port γ: A second upgrade of the "Digi-Port" function. It allows the Digivice to create a Digi-Port big enough for up to five people or one, large individual to enter through. It will remain open until the fifth individual enters, until a large individual enters, or until the user chooses to close it. It will close upon these conditions are fulfilled, leaving the entrants anywhere in the Digital World. To install this portal, you must have Portal(s) α and β installed first. Digi-Port γ can be used to travel anywhere in Shibuya, which also makes it very convenient for not missing school!
