At this point, Tetsu's prior sadism and cockiness had been completely destroyed... replaced with fear for both his own life, but his partner's. They... they were going to lose so much damn progress if she lost! With how many battles he's had her fight, they had to be close to Ultimate level... he refused to believe that some freshly-evolved Champion level was actually putting them on the ropes! This was supposed to be his shot to fame, and he'd be damned if this fiend was sinking it! He fearfully snatched up his D-3 back up in the middle of the two Digimon's brawl, for a moment glancing at Alice with... an almost sympathetic look on his face.
That thing was a legit monster... He felt sorry for Alice they were saddled with that thing. Maybe after this display they'd do the right thing and get rid of it for good.
Darkrizamon briefly caught a glimpse of Alice and Dorothy's bickering, a sad expression in their eyes. Her heart was out to the girl, even if she was in a way their enemy... She was quite familiar with bad relationships after all. She could not help but glare at Tetsu briefly, letting out a bit of snarl. "R-Run." they ordered, having noticed the Witchmon preparing something. Last thing she needed was him in the cross-fire.
She had to end this quick... as long as the Witchmon was alive, both she and her tamer were in danger. He may have been a repulsive excuse of a human being, and perhaps she had became an enabler of his awfulness... but she did genuinely care about him.
If only he thought the same way about her.
Aiming to rush down the ablaze witch, their claws prepared for another use of her Mark of Golachab attack. The fire around the witch was no threat to her, but she couldn't give them any quarter to fight back. She was a pragmatist, and one with a resolve to win at all costs.
Darkrizamon is rushing down Dorothy and attempting to use Mark of Golachab.
Mark of Golachab - Darkrizamon strikes a foe with her claw, enveloped in dark power. Deals moderate damage, but it additionally leaves an ominous rune that enhances fire-based damage inflicted on their for their next 2 turns. (Cooldown: 2 turns)

The flaming mark hits Dorothy and causes her to let out an unearthly shriek, the pain and intensity of the flames on her magnified, her face twisted into an absolutely nightmarish scowl, the type that only a demon would make willingly, a pained, crackling laughter coming out of her dry throat before she finally begins to say the words to execute her opponent against all reason. Her mind wanders to how much damage she's taken, and how to patch it up... With her opponent, of course. "Say one last prayer... Aquary Pressure!" The witch hops off her broom, and finally casts the spell to end this rather brutal fight, the magic circle glowing bright blue before folding inwards. A jet of water begins to come out of the center with incredible force, cleaving a gash into the concrete and spraying droplets and vapor alike into the air, gently and gradually dousing the fire on the deranged, aggressive witch, bits of embers still remaining until the water is going full blast. "Someone like ya doesn't deserve to exist!"
It isn't long before the cutting beam of water is directed at Darkrizamon, the lunatic in red laughing louder and louder and attempting to slice the flaming lizard clean in half, stopping only when a futile attack is launched at her from behind not from another Digimon, but a human. Her own Tamer swings the witch's own broom at her with a desperate, exhausted rage, knowing that it is ultimately pointless. The very person Dorothy swore to protect is attacking her, and at this point, both simply look at each other in silence briefly while the stream of water winds down and ends. When Alice finally speaks, her tone is shaky and hesitant. "Stop. Just... Just stop. You've already won."
"I just wanted to protect you... Isn't that what I'm supposed to do?!" The charred, somewhat burnt sorceress Digimon snatches her broom in rage, and coughs, her throat far too dry to come up with a good voice of smug superiority or even anger, absolutely exhausted, not to mention the numerous scratches burns and the evil rune still burned into her body. "Ain't that what my job is? To keep ya safe from dorks like him and-"
"Enough." Alice interrupts her Digimon, and looks over to the scene of carnage Dorothy has caused, the signs of a struggle here obvious given the burn marks and deep cuts gouged by water with small puddles already forming. "Look at yourself. You're not a monster, you never were. But your actions... You're killing someone."
"So? We kill each other all the time, it's no big deal..." Pushing her Tamer back, Dorothy aims a hand at the green haired woman, another glowing magic circle forming in her palm, but it soon fades, unable to bring herself to truly harm the one who made this all possible. "They deserve it. Dumb dorks wanted to start a fight, they got what they wanted."
Alice just puts her hand to her face, and slips her Digivice back into her pocket. "You don't just kill other people! I don't know what kind of messed up things you've been taught to believe in, but I won't let you murder others unless they're planning to kill me."
The tension between the two is so obvious that anyone can see it.
Aquary Pressure activated.
Burning Bodies has been dispelled.
Mark Of Golachab remains. 2/2 turns.
Both Alice And Dorothy suspect combat to be over, and are vulnerable if it is not.

For a desperate moment, Darkrizamon lunged at the witch... aiming to try and slash at the ablaze Champion level, hopefully to take them out before the fight could escalate further.
She only had a brief split-second when she realized what elemental affinity the cackling red-clothed Digimon's attack was... before the torrent of water tore a hole straight through them while leaving a trail of collateral damage across the area... Hell, it barely missed Tetsu as well, who practically froze as the attack cut straight through a brick wall that he attempted to retreat to.
To say the least, the blast of water was very frighteningly effective. For the flame-wreathed Digimon, it was a painful kiss of death as pain surged through what was left of them as steam filled the air from her doused flames. She gasped in pain as she laid on the ground, shock in the Virus Digimon's eyes. She... had thought she was stronger than this, but that one attack destroyed her. She cursed her own elemental affinity finally biting back at her, and at the worst time too.
For a moment, Tetsu's fearful look in his eyes was replaced by a look of shock. That one attack... seriously put her down? He was honestly in disbelief, feelings unfamiliar to him arising. Suddenly, he was starting to perhaps understand the feeling that some of those other tamers had when seeing their Digimon dying before them... Digimon don't die though, do they? "D-Dark...rizamon?" he for a moment murmured.
The mortally wounded reptilian Digimon attempted to get back up, but their strength was waning too quickly. Not even a sudden degeneration seemed was able to help, the creature coughing up smoke pitifully. She could hear the green-haired and Witchmon arguing, but her own hearing was dulling as her senses began to fade. In the end, she only had the strength to let out a single dying cry directed to her mortified tamer.
"... This was my fault."
With that sentence, the Darkrizamon's body burst into data, filling the air.
Darkrizamon has been deleted.

"...I'm sorry." Alice has her eyes closed as she slowly takes a step back, tempted to try and strangle the witch with her own two hands, but knowing that it isn't something she can do. "I didn't want it to end like this. I seriously didn't. But..." She's not sure what's happened either, but in the end, it feels like both her and Dorothy are murderers to some extent until she notices that her actions have indeed stopped the worst from happening, an oversized, oily black egg with dark red splotches in the center of the scene as proof. The guilt in her voice is apparent, only opening her eyes to glare at her Digimon partner, the scene around the two and the defeated Tamer that of absolute carnage. Needless to say, whoever stumbles upon this alleyway in the morning will have a lot of questions. "...Just remember to care for your partner. It's never been a game. As for my own Digimon... I need to give her a stern talking to. Maybe several."
She begins to quietly walk away, and Dorothy looks back to her for a moment before walking with her, slowly stopping. "Why so mad at me, ya dumb green-haired dork? I won, I did what I was told 'n everything..." The witch shivers a bit, the mark left by the Darkrizamon still there, a stinging pain from it gradually fading away. Some things stick to her memories unpleasantly, particularly being wrapped in a blanket of searing fire, gradually being roasted alive... A reminder of how reckless she really was.
Alice's response to her Digimon's complaint is a long, drawn out sigh. "Sure, there's an egg, like he said there would be, but the way you were acting, you wouldn't have stopped there... Let's go. We have a lot to talk about. You look far too human... It's kind of terrifying?" Just glancing at the strange, humanoid Digimon causes her to have a bit of a double take, taking Dorothy as some sort of odd costume wearing human before the more obviously inhuman features become apparent immediately after, a sly, sharp toothed grin coming from her the moment her Tamer hesitates.
"Weren't ya the one who said I should see things from a more human point of view, huh?" Dorothy teases, still obviously in a fair bit of pain as she almost falls on top of her own Tamer from a combination of her injuries and simply not being used to walking on two feet just yet.
The emerald haired Tamer looks back at the scene of the fight alongside Dorothy, catching her own Digimon and helping her prop herself up, the strange, old fashioned broom used as support. "...You know what, let's talk about this later." She finally turns around, her steps heavy with a slumped posture, her exhaustion and slight anger obvious as she helps the witch walk off with her, deciding that it might be best to find another route to head home and give the other Tamer some time alone to rethink themselves.
I don't know what to put here.

Tetsu for a moment was in complete disbelief, the words of his partner before they were deleted back into data and promptly back to an egg... they resonated with the blonde man.
He realized for a moment that if Alice had not stopped her partner when they did... they would have done worse than just turning Darkrizamon back into a Digiegg. He was mildly disturbed by that fact... Even he wouldn't have had Darkrizamon go that far... he had just wanted their data.
He genuinely flinched seeing Alice's guilty eyes... Why...? Why was SHE apologizing? He was the one who sicked Darkrizamon on her and their partner, and it wasn't like she ordered that punk witch to attack... Why did EVERYONE have to apologize to him?
He couldn't say anything... His cocky attitude destroyed as he couldn't help but wince at Alice's face, even in his mind it burned into his skull. She had to have been wrong... she had to have been wrong... but what if she actually wasn't wrong? What if all that shit about Digimon being like people was actually true?
He couldn't bare to take this any longer. Without a word, the young man scooped up his partner's egg hastily, a pained expression as he dashed back off into the night... that face of Alice's and his partners last words before returning back to an egg, an unknown feeling welling up in his stomach.
The hell had he put Darkrizamon through...?
