Time was up. The three had made their decision, and with the advent of two figures that could absolutely match the Tactimon as he were right now, came the first notions of violence. But if they wanted to make this quick and painless, then they had another thing coming. Maddened pupils appeared within the Tactimon's eyes as he seemed to REALIZE that there was a chain coming for him at the exact perfect moment to move, swaying out of the way like some sort of wild animal. ...Yes. That was the best way to describe this. The movements of an animal. "Ḯ̵͖̠̦̲͖̦͗̈́̈́̂̈́̐.̴͇̗̩̝͎̱̜̬̯̬͓̤͕̈.̷̛͈̦̜̘͎͎̈́́̉͜.̷͈̜͍̰̪̲̮͉͕̺͓̬͇͎͛͐͘͝ͅh̴̨̨̨̩͈̳̘̪͈̀͂e̷̙̹̹̦̺̪̳͗͗́̌͒̂̌a̵͔̺̫̱̦̝̤̼̣̙̝̔̓̐̕͜r̷̡̳̪̱̔̊̅́͆̓́͝.̵̨̧̩͎̮̞̪̥̻̬̟̻͓̓̚̚.̷̡͎̖̦͇̱̿͊̊͂͠.̷̢̠̪͓̹͈͔͙̳̬͉̳̱͊̈́̽̇̆͘.̸̛͖̘̦̮̻͖̥̲̞̃̓̊̈̇͛͆̊̆͊̉̀̆͐a̸̪͊.̶̫̼̹̩̜͕̙͈̮͉̙̘̗͗̆͌͜.̵̘̯͉̗̙̻͔̮̠̰̣͍̒͊̓̌͑̄͜ͅ.̶̧̱̰̱̣̘̜͙̼͇̈̓̽̆́̈́̍͜.̷̡̛̙̋̐̀̅̈̎̄̈́͗͘͘s̴̝̠͠ợ̵̣̼̲̄̌̿̅̂̍̂̄̐̒̉̚͘͝ù̶̺̐͒͐̀͑͘n̵̛̼̲̗̓̌̀͜d̸̨̛̠̬̥̠͚̻̗͇͉͇͓͌̎̄̆̅̀̓̓.̷̤̗̭͂̀̒̄͂͑̔̕͘.̷̨̱͈̬̰͚̪̘̬̬͇̲̀́̾̓̌̇̽̍̍̓̚͝͝ͅ.̵̨̩̪͎͖̞̫̃́ͅ" Yet, as immobilization was avoided...The monster failed to take heed of the Yamato. The massive blade pierced the canopy of the forest as the Tactimon watched, and...allowed it. And yet...Despite being PIERCED BY A MASSIVE SWORD? He briefly let go of his sheathed blade, as with strength considered unholy, he gripped the blade and lifted it. No, not lifted. It's more like he tore it from his chest. "̶̠̌̀̓Ỉ̴̮̞͔̂͊͐͆͗t̵̡̥͚̰̺̪̗͋͆̓̂̑̏͐̋̕.̷̡̹͔̠̭̂̀̇͐̀̊͘.̶̨̹̗͚̖̤͕̘̲͊.̴̝͕̙̰͖̤͗̊l̶̳͕̬̤͊͆̅̌̓̈̉̏̿͝a̴̻͚̞͎͙̙͕͗̓͆̅̿͂͘ư̷̧̈́̿̒̂͛̋̾̀͊g̵̙͙͐̏͌̔̇̐̕͠ͅh̸̛̛͙̩̼̀͊͋̊͑̐̔͆͘s̷̥͎̙̅ͅ.̶̘͔̃͛͆̌̓͋̚͘.̷̡̯̣̬̦̼̺̼͌̔̈́́́͌̀͛̀͘͝.̴̢̡̡͚͔̣͉͙͔͋.̸̢̢̨̥̙͙͇͇͉̬̤̍̎͌ The Tactimon, already bloodied, forced himself upright, before he grabbed his sheathed blade and slammed it into the ground once. An EARTHQUAKE resonating throughout the Server Woods that threatened to knock down Dio and Gio alike. He then slammed it two more times, as limbs of bone began to pull themselves free from the ground, two axe-wielding soldiers, charred black as Dio's MySpace page wrenching themselves free to charge at the twins. They swung in a diagonal. What would they do?
Relevant Passives: You know of one. For he just used it. Fatebreaker [Loaded from Rasielmon]: The divine vision of a Rasielmon enables one to gaze into a potentially infinite amount of futures, and this is indeed the case...for a Rasielmon. This Digimon made the mistake of attempting to load that property, and when in the hands of an untrained individual, drives them mad with the sight of infinity. They have seen too much. Once in a while, they see that which is about to happen to them, giving them the ability to mitigate that in some way, be it dodging or blocking.
Tactimon makes use of his curse to avoid Chains of Torment, before he sustains damage from Yamato. Severe damage. He holds no will. No soul. He RIPS the blade out of himself. For more damage on himself. I'm the DM. I can hurt my guys arbitrarily if I damn well want to! He then invokes the twin clause, and uses Earthshaker and Underworld in that order. The skeletons from the latter negate the twin clause. Seriously, how does this guy screw himself over so hard? Earthshaker: The first of his many Tachi, Tactimon stabs the ground with his sheathed sword, generating an earthquake that threatens to knock over all combatants for severe damage. Unless they can fly, in which case, uh. This move looks a little stupid. Two turn cooldown. Also, if they get knocked down, they have to spend some time getting back up next turn. Underworld: The second of the Tachi, Tactimon stabs the ground twice to awaken two GIANT skeletal warriors, able to take two hits from a mega before they fall, and lasting for two turns. Three turn cooldown. Durations: Underworld: 0/2. Cooldowns: Fatebreaker: 0/3 Earthshaker: 0/2 Underworld: Pending...

As expected, despite the bigger attack landing dead on, Kappy seemed unfazed. Sword through chest notwithstanding of course, though the ease and lack of care he displayed at getting rid of it was...concerning to say the least. Same thing with how quickly he went on the offensive afterwards, his sword splitting the ground with a singular slam. Dio's reflexes were on point, the devil kicking the soil below him as he took flight, narrowly escaping the earth shattering tremors. Gio was not so lucky, his tail still anchoring him to the ground from his previous attack, preventing him from doing anything but going down, hard, though he did manage to balance his weight to fall on his side. It was less than graceful but it helped lower the chances of accidentally turning his tamer into a Carlos sandwich. Speaking of which he was currently being knocked about backwards by the earthquake, battered but without any broken bones at least. Gio would have tried to get back on his feet, were it not for the two massive skeletal warriors Kappy had just raised to fight for him. Before he could even wonder where the bones for such a creation even originated he'd find himself raising one of his arms to shield his head from the diagonal slash of their axe, snarling as the weapon cut into his arm, the now ominously glowing armor preventing it from reaching too deep but not enough to stop it from hurting. As for Dio? He fared marginally better, not being prone on the ground and all that, though as his gauntlet partially blocked the swing he was forced to come back down to the ground, reeling. He let out a roar and with it came a red light from his maw, a pure red blast of energy aimed not at the undead warriors, but their armored master. As for Gio, he spread open his wings, many lightning charged feathers shooting out at both one of the skeletons and Kappy as well. Was it a waste to aim at anything other than him? Perhaps, but it didn't hurt to keep them occupied, if only for a moment. Dio dodges the Earthshaker, though Gio isn't as lucky and is knocked down by it (which also activates his passive). They both take damage from the Underworld soldiers before Dio fires a Red Volt at Kappy, while Gio aims both at him and one of the giants with Infernal Monsoon.
Passives
[RAM Upgrade Giga] Axon Charge: Due to Gio’s rather odd upbringing and traces of his old demon lord data, his body and very core react to physical trauma in an different way. On top of an increased tolerance to pain, every time Gio receives damage from a named move he stores a part of the attack’s energy within him, giving him a charge. He can store up to five of these charges. Every charge gives him a 5% increase in damage to all of his named moves, though he loses a charge for every two turns without receiving damage. Furthermore he can spend all five charges to create a medium ranged explosion around him causing heavy damage to up to two targets, but can’t gain charges for the next two turns.
Red Volt: An upgraded version of NeoDevimon's Red Ray. Gathering power from within and his surroundings Belphemon fires a massive red beam of destructive energy from his mouth, causing heavy damage and piercing through shields and armor. Three posts cooldown.
Infernal Monsoon: The bladed quills from his wings become electrified with plasmic energy and shoot up to a distance of 100 feet, raining down upon the enemy and causing medium damage to up to two targets. 4 turn cooldown.
Durations: Axon Charge stacks (1/5)
Cooldowns:
Red Volt (0/3) Chains of Torment (1/4)
Yamato (1/5) Infernal Monsoon (0/4)

It was unclear as to what this monster was really made of anymore as the twins kept their offensive up. The tremors of the earth did not seem to faze the Former Sloth much if at all--he seemed like he -knew- the technique. His brother, however, he did not fly so good...Wait. Gio can't fly at all, can he? The point still stands, however. He was downed. Not good when there's undead soldiers trying to bear down upon you. They begged to be freed. They didn't even know why they were here. What they were here for. They simply sang for freedom from this endless nightmare. Metal impacted Gio, yet one of the warriors...tilted their head. Interesting. What a shame that they were, in fact, just mooks. They're dumb. Wow. The Red Volt tore through the air with a sickening screech that could be heard for miles around--It being an empowered, unfettered version of the Red Ray was reason enough. You would be forgiven for assuming that the Tactimon was going to try and defend against that, but he... HE DID NOT. He LEAPT at the beam, seeming to be ENCOMPASSED by it. It was not without cost, for it was a painful endeavor to even do. But he did not care about pain. He did not, not at this moment in time. If Dio were to cease the beam or keep it firing, Kappy would emerge near it, near HIM as he thrust his sheathed sword RIGHT at the face of the Belphemon, three swords, rife with blackened flame surging out to aid in this by trying to pierce the beast's hide! In doing this, however, he left himself open for the quills, the electrified projectiles stabbing into him as he attacked, and damaging one of the warriors. Both of them decided it would be pretty funny if they wailed on Gio. So the other leapt to join the first in the clangening!
You know both of this form's passives now. Fatebreaker [Loaded from Rasielmon]: The divine vision of a Rasielmon enables one to gaze into a potentially infinite amount of futures, and this is indeed the case...for a Rasielmon. This Digimon made the mistake of attempting to load that property, and when in the hands of an untrained individual, drives them mad with the sight of infinity. They have seen too much. Once in a while, they see that which is about to happen to them, giving them the ability to mitigate that in some way, be it dodging or blocking. This is basically just Mae's passive. That's LITERALLY IT.
Swords of Blight [Passive]: A strange one. Every two turns, three swords of blackened flame will surge out for one foe of Tactimon's choosing as a free basic attack atop of whatever move he chooses to do.
So there's a lot going on here. I apologize for the long wait. But. Let's get to this. Kappy takes the Red Volt head on--like, super head on, holy shit. He however tries to run through it to try attacking Dio with both Kishintotsu and his Swords of Blight. Kishintotsu: Finally, an actual attack. Tactimon charges his foe with wild abandon, and thrusts his sword, still in it's sheathe, at them! This is a lot of blunt force trauma, and it's fast enough to ignore/break shields. Three turn cooldown. He also sustains heavy damage from Infernal Monsoon--as does one of the giants. He is at one hit of two. The other is not targetted. Both of them target Gio with basic attacks! Have fun earning those charges! Durations: Underworld: 1/2. Cooldowns: Fatebreaker: 1/3 Earthshaker: 1/2 Underworld: Pending... Swords of Blight: 0/2 Kishintotsu: 0/3

Fear was a funny thing. Dio for all his bragadocious boasts and overly inflated ego, did have one thing going for him that he could actually back up: he barely if ever felt actual fear. Sure, he could get startled like anyone else with a loud enough sound with no warning, and he held a certain amount of...respect for Bloom's temper, enough to want to avoid angering her. But real, actually paralyzing fear? Whetjer due to genuine bravery, or just generally being too damn stupid to realize he was in danger, Dio simply wasn't overly familiar with that negative feeling. That is of course, until he saw Kappy tearing through his crimson beam, reemerging from inside it like a killer whale leaping out of a wave, sharp teeth coming down for it's prey. Except it wasn't teeth what Dio was met with, but the hard end of the Tactimon's still sheathed sword being plunged into his muzzle with enough force to send the giant flying back. That's when it hit him. Metaphorically this time. What really made his proverbial blood (data?) run cold wasn't Kappy's show of overwhelming power, nor the general lack of self preservation. It was the fact his sword was still sheathed, and he had still used it to deal a blow this strong. The mad warrior was for one reason or another still holding back. And in realizing that, the aspect of Sloth didn't feel fear. He felt terror. Only now it dawned on him how stacked the odds were...and how unfathomably fucked the three of them were unless they could pick up their slack somehow. And as if to add insult to injury he only then noticed those ghostly flaming swords aiming to lodge themselves into him. Finally coming out of his dazed, scared stupor he dug his feet into the ground, his forced retreat halting whilst he roared, black and blue flames surging from within and covering his entire body like a fiery set of phantom armor. The swords met it's target in the end, but did relatively little against the intense blue fires that protected Dio. As for Gio? Well he might not have been experiencing the same level of dread that his twin was, but his frustration certainly began to mount as the undead giants continued to beat him down into the ground, each deafening banging of metal against metal only eliciting louder and angrier growls from the mechanized dragon, his scales hardening and glowing a deep red with more power with every received blow. He didn't know what was worse, being unable to help his brother fight the real threat, or the fact these pale mockeries of unlife were giving him this much trouble. Really, it would have been almost embarrasing had Gio known the definition of shame. Well, there was little he could do to help his brother unless he helped himself first, so he grit his teeth and tried to force himself back up despite the blows, one glowing claw swiping in a downwards motion right before a larger, ghostly reflection of said claw would mimick his movement, coming down and hopefully slowing down Kappy some while Dio got his bearings back. It would sting, yes, but selflessness always beat out his sense of self preservation. If nothing else, knowing that the more he endured the harder he would hit Kappy offered him a small amount of solace. Who knew, he could be just as petty as Dio... After being heavily damaged (his ego doubly so) and near yeeted by Kishintotsu, Dio finally manages to summon forth Dark Onslaught to tank the remaining damage from the Swords of Blight. Meanwhile Gio continues being pummelled by the two mooks (he can take it, honest!), using the ensuing power boost to send a Dark Claw in Kappy's general direction. Passives: [RAM Upgrade Giga] Axon Charge: Due to Gio’s rather odd upbringing and traces of his old demon lord data, his body and very core react to physical trauma in an different way. On top of an increased tolerance to pain, every time Gio receives damage from a named move he stores a part of the attack’s energy within him, giving him a charge. He can store up to five of these charges. Every charge gives him a 5% increase in damage to all of his named moves, though he loses a charge for every two turns without receiving damage. Furthermore he can spend all five charges to create a medium ranged explosion around him causing heavy damage to up to two targets, but can’t gain charges for the next two turns.
Dark Onslaught: Belphemon inbues his body with the blue hued flames of Sloth, making his attacks deal double damage and reducing the damage taken by half, at the cost of some of his speed. Lasts for 2 posts and has a cool down of 5 posts.
Dark Claw – Rend: Summons a giant energy claw that slashes in a downward motion upon the enemy, dealing heavy damage if it connects. Can be summoned anywhere within a range of 50 feet of Gio, but it must be done within his range of vision. 3 turn cooldown.
Durations: Axon Charge stacks (3/5) Dark Onslaught (0/2)
Cooldowns:
Red Volt (1/3) Chains of Torment (2/4)
Yamato (2/5) Infernal Monsoon (1/4) Dark Claw – Rend (0/3)
