And that is exactly why Arata intended to do a front flip! As the Maildramon drops towards him, he does the flip to avoid the crushing weight, and instead slams his abdomen down on Maildramon's back to force him to fall even faster with added force! He then widens his laser aperture. "Orbital Strike!" He declares, as he fires a huge red laser beam down onto the Maildramon, angled just enough away that Kima and the other bystanders are not hit by the 25 meter laser!
But once the beam is done, everyone can see that despite the power behind the laser... the ground is intact, and any plantlife in the area is untouched. The only one that would be harmed is... Maildramon?
Sylvia whistles. "...Whoa. That's... That's cool." She shifts a bit to see if her screens give her a little more of an angle. "...Why're the plants untouched?"
"It's hard to collect material for the Honey Base if we blew them up all the time."

As Maildramon fell toward Arata he was struck in the back by the Waspmon's abdomen causing him to fall faster. Arata's laser aperture widened before he fired off his Orbital Strike. Balancing with his wings he couldn't slow his fall to dodge the attack but that didn't mean he didn't have a solution to his predicament. "Buzzsaw Slash!" Maildramon said as his body began to spin faster and faster until it was spinning like a buzzsaw. As he hit the ground his spinning body provided traction to move swiftly along the ground dodging the worst of the laser blasts before coming to a stop and turned to face Arata as he said "You aren't that bad, Arata. I'm definitely enjoying this sparring match." Maildramon sounded like he was indeed quite amused but since he was covered by armor facial features were hard to read on the large beast like digimon.
"Don't think your lasers give you the advantage though cause I am trickier than you think I am." Maildramon said with a pleasant chuckle planning for his next move.

Sylvia notices something on the screen... and sees a reticle locking onto the Maildramon. "Overwhelming firepower isn't nearly enough then." He says simply as his eyes glow brightly. The wasp Digimon then zooms to the side with his jet wings to try and get an unexpected angle. The whirs of aperture adjustments can be heard just underneath the roar of the engines... "Target Locked. Bunker Buster!"
A very thin, almost laser pointer thin, laser shoots from the wasp's abdomen... But it is VERY bright, indicating a high level of piercing power! Maildramon definitely isn't going to be able to dodge this one!
Sylvia, meanwhile, is taking mental notes on what Waspmon can do... And that's when it comes up.
"just think how much of an upgrade the next form will be."
Shut up.
"it could possibly take on an entire city... and allow you to get revenge."
Shut up!
"it'll be cathartic to see the smouldering crater."
"SHUT UP!"
Arata is suddenly jolted from the joy of the battle as Sylvia shouts. Of course, nobody else can hear her right now over the sound of lasers and jet engines, but the bystanders can clearly see Arata being shaken for some reason!

Bunker Buster - He locks onto the target and fine-tunes his laser, before firing a piercing beam to ignore shields. [Cooldown - Two turns]

Arata locked his next attack on Maildramon and the large armored beast had a feeling that evading wouldn't be so simple so he did the next best thing. Folding his wings he then dug his claws into the ground to brace himself. The laser struck his armor hitting him in the chest and forcing him backwards while leaving gouges in the land. When the Bunker Buster ceased Maildramon spread his gold wings ready to make his move as he looked around seeing a large boulder. So what could he do with that? As it came to him he ran for the boulder stopping suddenly when he saw Arata jolt. What was going on? "Arata, what's going on over there? Why did you jump like that?" Maildramon asked his tone now very concerned which was also noticeable in his body language.
Out of the line of fire Kima, Takoda, and Blaster saw what was going on. Blaster opened a compartment in his chest showing what looked like communication devices and handed one to Takoda. Takoda took it with his tail staring at it in confusion before Blaster said "Get it over ta Maildramon so he can use it. I will pass out tha rest of them after tha sparring match is over. While he can hear us if he uses his Ears of tha Wolf, these communicators will make things easier for everyone."
Nodding Takoda darted out onto the field holding out the communicator while yelling to be heard over Arata's engines and filled Maildramon in. Absorbing the communicator into his body Maildramon stood ready to make a move while Takoda ran back over to the others.

Arata stays frozen in midair, outright not even moving... just hovering as if locked into place. Then he just lowers himself down and open the cockpit. Sylvia rises from it, face contorted with fury as she drops down onto Arata's abdomen, and then from there onto the ground. She clenches her fists before pointing at Arata. "You. Keep fighting." She then heads off towards Kima.
Arata closes up the now empty cockpit and looks at the Maildramon. He then looks at Sylvia, who then folds her arms and seems to be waiting for Takoda to get close again. After a moment, he just says quietly (though the Maildramon could still hear him), "Do we keep going as per her wishes?"
He was clearly upset, but considering there isn't anything he can do, he just cuts the power to his engines, leaving just enough to keep him hovering where he is close to the ground.

Takoda was almost back to the group when Arata's cockpit opened and Sylvia climbed out looking furious but why? Wondering what happened as he walked back over to where Sylvia was not noticing Kima had followed him or, at least not at first. "Sylvia..?" Kima asked in a nervous tone as she reached out toward the older girl seemingly afraid she would be yelled at.
Takoda stepped up from here not wanting to make Kima more worried and upset. "Sylvia, what just happened back there? Why are you so angry?" he asked his tone not accusatory but gentle hoping he could get the answers without making things worse. At least he was better with diplomacy than Shillan.
Maildramon looked at Arata and said "We'll continue only if you feel comfortable with doing so. I think the others can work with Sylvia. At least before she got angry we were having fun."

Sylvia kneels down to Takoda's level, arms shaking... As if she were holding herself back from grabbing the Digimon and shaking him until he provided her answers. ".........I can't believe I'm actually saying this, but... What level of magical training do you have? Can you get ANY insight for what or who the fuck is in my head?" She hisses... trying to keep her voice down for Kima's sake, but not exactly succeeding very well.
Arata, meanwhile, shrugs his jet wings. "I guess we'll continue then, since Nee-san has ordered it." He revs his engines up and soars back up to roughly where he was previously, before motioning with a hand for Maildramon to proceed. It was his turn, after all, since the last attack was Arata's.
But he could get a rough gauge on his own stamina, and he doesn't have much left. So, here's hoping they can either wrap it up quickly in a victory for him... Or make him degenerate quickly.

Takoda watched as Sylvia knelt down to his eye level looking as if she was struggling with keeping it together. He felt lost on what to say as he stared at Kima before looking back at Sylvia. All he could do is tell her the truth. Taking a deep breath, Takoda said "Unfortunately my mystical abilities are very limited all I have access to is the animal power that was bestowed upon me. I'm far from telepathic so I don't know how I can help you. I'm sorry."
Then Kima spoke up but it was barely audible to the human ear as she softly said "What about, Jijimon? He had some amazing mystic powers and is pretty wise from what I saw. Maybe he can help." Takoda glances over to Kima surprised she came up with such a suggestion in her stressed state but it was a good one. However would Sylvia be okay with going out to the Western Flatlands to meet the wise old digimon.
Maildramon nodded and said "Works for me, Arata." He then flapped his golden wings taking to the air moving with speed that was impressive for a digimon his size and bulk but he wasn't finished yet. Turning sharply toward Arata he said "Buzzsaw Slash!" Spinning like a saw blade he dove for Arata showing that his Buzzsaw Slash was good for more than just moving fast to avoid lasers.
OOC: Buzzsaw Slash: Spins like a saw blade before launching himself at an opponent.

"Considering how you were sent out into the world, I kind of assumed this Jijimon was dead. Glad he isn't then. Fine, we'll see Jijimon." Sylvia sighs and squeezes the bridge of her nose tight. "...Sorry about this. Just... I'm getting REAL sick of the peanut gallery, and I want to know who or what it is so I can go punch them in the face." She lets herself fall back onto her ass and rest her face in her hand.
Arata zips to the side in an effort to dodge the slash, but despite his mechanical "perfection," he mistimed the strike and his jet wing gets slashed into. The blue glow of his exhaust starts to flicker, and he starts lowering himself down. But with the Buzzsaw Slash leaving the Maildramon in the air, he angles himself and charges up his laser again. "Turbo Stinger!" as he fires three more shots at the armored Digimon, intending on clipping his wings.

"Seeing as I never mentioned he is still alive I can understand the confusion." Takoda said not even upset at Sylvia as he sat down. She seemed willing to go see Jijimon so that meant a fight wasn't necessary so that was a small blessing. "We would have to take a Trailmon to the Western Flatlands and walk for awhile through the desert to reach his home but I think we can handle that. Anything to get an answer to why the peanut gallery, as you put it, won't leave you alone, right?"
Meanwhile Arata's jet wing got slashed into slowing him down but Maildramon had left himself wide open in his excitement for battle. Arata's Turbo Stinger hit Maildramon knocking the armored dragon out of the air and crashing to the ground. It was obvious both digimon were wearing out as Maildramon was slowly pushing himself up and turning to face Arata. "Your not bad, Arata. Maybe with time I'll pick up some new tricks to be less vulnerable while in the air." Maildramon said as his fatigue took effect as he began glowing before seperating back into Shillan and Chaytan. Chaytan flopped onto his back in exhaustion while Shillan sat down doing his best to look tough. It was a force of habit of his not to show weakness.

Arata hits the ground himself, leaving a small crater, before glowing a bright white and returning to FanBeemon. He flips himself back onto his feet and stumbles up and out of the crater he has left, before splaying his legs out to the side and landing heavily on his belly. His right most wings seeming slightly crumbled. "A... A draw it is!" He declares, before dropping his face into the dirt.
"...Oh joy, sand. And sun. Next you're going to tell me we have to dive through a lake." She says sardonically, before leaning to the side to look at Arata from around Takoda. "...You good, Arata?"
"Mostly, Nee-san! Wing's hurt, but I'll be fine."
"At least it isn't a loss."
"Yes, Nee-san!" The bee then puts his legs back up under him and he shuffles over towards Shillan and Chaytan, holding out both of his hands for a fistbump. At least he's pleased with how things went, Sylvia's outburst aside.

The loud thump of Arata hitting the ground caused Chaytan to tiredly lift his head in response to the noise while Arata returned to his rookie form of Fanbeemon. The tired Fanbeemon stumbled out of the crater. "Yeah a draw but also a good workout. I haven't had a challenge from a digimon for a while. I guess I was a bit overconfident."
"Sounds like it is something you have to work on, Shillan." Chaytan gasped out while Shillan smirked in response.
"I gotta admit that when we xrossed I wasn't expecting for us to become an armored dragon with gold wings." Shillan said earning a chuckle from Chaytan before he then said "Digivolution. The great mystery, eh?"
"No, Sylvia, there was no lake but it would of been nice to stop by one on the way." Kima said faintly smiling at Sylvia's tone as the older girl seemed to be okay despite being annoyed at the apparent voice in her head. Arata then shuffled over to Shillan and Chaytan offering a fistbump which Shillan returned with a smile. Chaytan managed to push himself up and held out his wing to do the same. Being tired was no excuse for bad manners.

Sylvia sighs and heaves herself up onto her feet. "Alright, well, let's give the boys a break then for a little bit to recover, and then we'll do another sparring match. One isn't going to cut it." She says, before pullling out her Digivice. She scrolls through the menu for a moment and raises an eyebrow. "Huh. I do have a medic program on here. Wonder when that got there." She shrugs before holding out her Digivice. "FanBeemon, Digitize!"
"Aww!" Arata protests before he gets scooped up into the yellow particles and put into the Digivice. He puts his face right up next to the screen. "Nee-san, you're mean!"
"You're hurt, so we're gonna let your wing heal up before I let you back out. ...Though I don't know how long this program takes."
"Come oooon, lemme out!"
"Not yet!" Sylvia smiles a little. At least Arata wants to fight and get better, and that warms her heart quite a bit. She then looks at Kima. "...Sorry 'bout all of this though."

At the suggestion of a break Chaytan indicated his agreement in laying down on the ground slowly. Meanwhile Shillan slowly lay down on his belly as he was more tired than he appeared. A quick rest was good enough for him. Kima watched as Sylvia messed with the menu of her digivice finding some kind of medical program she didn't know was there. As for Arata, he didn't seem to fond of being called back into Sylvia's digivice. Kima giggled when Arata called Sylvia mean as the behavior was similar to a pouty child that didn't want to take a nap. In a way it was cute.
"It's not your fault some weird voice in your head won't leave you alone. It must of said something bad to anger you so much. What was it?" Kima said figuring it wouldn't hurt to know what Sylvia was dealing with. How often did this happen.
"Maybe it's a digimon with long range telepathic powers. If it was one following us surely it woulda been detected by one of us by now." Blaster said as he began scratching his chin in thought as he was trying to puzzle things out much like the other digimon but he was the first to suggest a telepath.

"...It's trying to urge me to make Arata stronger so I can..." She pauses for a moment before sighing. "...so I can get revenge."
She clenches her fists. "...The worst part is, I want to. I want to, very very very very much. But it wouldn't be FAIR. Not to all the people that would probably get hurt. And yet... And yet it's eating at me. I could do it. I want to do it. Make them suffer as I have, in addition to dealing with... with..." She drops her head. "...With my mother. And all that she's done to me, and caused me to end up doing. And my senpai. And... And just society as a whole!" She then kicks a nearby rock and sends it spiraling through the air, swooshing past Shillan and Chaytan with a whistle.
"why not do it though? you already want to. you just admitted it."
"SHUT UP!" She kicks another rock, this time sending it flying wider.
"Nee-san...?" Arata asks, suddenly concerned and cowed... stepping away from the Digivice screen.
"...And now I just feel like I'm some edgy bitch side character in some stupid manga or something, making drama because boo hoo I've had a bad life, so let me kill some bitches who have nothing to do with what I went through." She mutters, closing her eyes to try and calm back down... hating herself for the outburst.
