[OOC: Please, only one mission per Chosen so that others have a chance to take part as well! All groups will receive a device to take data as well as the info in the blurbs below. This will act as a mingle log. There really is no sign up for these. We just request that you do not go over the max number of participants. Enjoy!]

[Kyubimon fans out her tails, the lot of them catching on fire.]

Foolish beast! You cannot hold a candle to-

[A shard of ice lands dangerously close to Kyubimon, who simply fire her flames at the attack instead of continuing to talk.]

Fox-tail inferno!

[marinebiting]

[Garurumon joins in to repel the icicles]

Howling Blaster!

[Pah, when it comes to wielding ice, she belies she is far superior to the frozen devil. Shark pats Garurumon on the shoulder.]

Do you really think you can win against the three of us? Do all of us a favor and go back where you came from.

[sonati]

Cat's Eye Hypnotism!

We're gonna beat you and get the data! [And get ice cream!! Ed she is expecting you to deliver after this is done with.]

[adventuremons]

[The first two attacks take care of the icicles, while Gatomon's stops the IceDevimon cold! (No pun intended.)

And for the moment at least, for some quick individual, looks like they can run up to the Dark Field and start the data gathering process...]

[fuhrinkaed]

Now, contractor! Let us dash into the fray and complte our mission while it is distracted!

[Ed is about to hop on Kyubimon when he realizes...]

Wait, I wasn't carrying the device! [He looks at the other two.] Who has it?!

[marinebiting]

Don't look at me, I thought she was supposed to be carrying it!

[Oh god he can already see where this is going.]

[sonati]

Huh? But Sonata gave it to Slowpoke to hold, I think...

[adventuremons]

[...And IceDevimon shakes off the attack and swings a Frozen Claw at Kyubimon!]

[fuhrinkaed]

Slowpoke?! Who's slowpoke?!

[Kyubimon bolts as the attack comes, running away from the IceDevimon and back towards the chosen (LIKE THE BRAVEST OF CREATURES!!). She can hear their argument, and something seems to be a problem.]

Contractor, need I remind you we are on a battlefield? FOCUS.

We have other problems!

Then resolve them swiftly!

[marinebiting]

Then I'll go back for it.

[He would send Garurumon, but it's likely she'll be needed to keep the IceDevimon at bay.]

Garurumon! Don't you dare give up any ground! You can handle something as simple as that, can't you?

If you have time to talk, you have time to run!

[Garurumon leaps for IceDevimon, intending to clamp her jaws on its arm. At the same time, Shark turns around and starts to sprint back the way they came.]

[sonati]

Don't you dare start pinning the blame on me- I told you to hold onto it yourself! [This is really not the time to argue.]

Sonata will go, too!

[adventuremons]

[Paying no heed to those leaving, IceDevimon attempts to shake off Garurumon, to no avail. In response, it fires a Tundra Freeze to freeze her solid.]

[fuhrinkaed]

Alright then... we'll go find the machine we need.

You guys hold him off, okay Kyubimon?

Fear not, contract holder... while I draw breath none shall pass beyond this spot. No devil may stand up to the flame of balance, chosen of the red heart after my soul was reforged in the black flames of courage.

Alright then. I'll be back as soon as I can!

[Kyubimon nods.] As quickly as you can. In the interim I shall show this beast the power of our contract!

[With a small smile, Ed runs off to go help find the machine. In the meanwhile, Kyubimon finally stares down the IceDevimon, fanning out her tails.] Pass now from this world as a disease from the body! Fox-Tail Inferno!!

[marinebiting]

[Garurumon has no time to dodge and she is frozen solid. But some of Kyubimon's flames hit her and conveniently weaken the ice enough for her to burst free.

But if Kyubimon thinks Garurumon is going to thank her, she better think again. She was confident she would have broken free herself mere seconds later. Already in close range of IceDevimon, she claws at the devil's face.

Meanwhile, as Shark runs, he tries to think back to where he last saw the device.]

Shouldn't be too far, right? We took a break before we got here and I saw it then.

[sonati]

Yeah! Sonata doesn't think it's that far away... [Though she still thinks she gave it to Gatomon to hold, that traitor.]

[adventuremons]

[IceDevimon takes both hits! Bam, bam, as its face seems almost shaved, revealing data, and its wings start to melt.

Disturbingly enough, it still fights on, sending icicles from the remains of its wings.

The device, meanwhile, should rest a little before the start of the underwater tunnel. Right where they dropped it.]

[fuhrinkaed]

[The icicles scrape and scratch at Kyubimon, as she growls from taking the attack head on. She lets loose a roar and charges; when she does she curls forward and sets herself in a wheel of fire.]

[Meanwhile, Ed is busily searching right around the start of it, but he hasn't stumbled upon the device yet.]

Come on... it's got to be around here somewhere..!

[marinebiting]

[Garurumon knows there's something that's just wrong about the IceDevimon even before it distorts. She can smell it. She aims for the melting wings, trying to tear them off with brute force.]

There!

[Shark points at the device, which is sitting almost innocently at the tunnel's entrance.]

[sonati]

Ah! Sonata will get it! [She's the smallest of the group so she's the fastest, right? She'll just go ahead and make a grab for it even though she was the one to lose it in the first place.

Gatomon, in the meantime, also... being the smallest of the group, continues to join in the fight against IceDevimon.]

[adventuremons]

[The combined attacks send the IceDevimon down, and it's laying on the tunnel ground, wings gone, body half-melted...but data slowly, slowly re-configuring.

Looks like the perfect opportunity for the group to get the data...if they get back in time.]

[fuhrinkaed]

[WHELP ED IS DEFINITELY RUNNING but since he's not holding the device it's peripheral to this thread ATM.]

[Kyubimon on the other hand is doing something far more relevant: determining what happens when you hit a down but reconstituting Icedevimon with more fireballs courtesy of a Fox-Tail Inferno.]

[marinebiting]

[Aww hell no, this reforming stuff is against the rules! Garurumon makes a decision - she turns and runs down the corridor to meet the Chosen. The faster they get the data, the faster they can get out of here. When she reaches them, she bends down.]

Hop on you three.

[Shark obliges, though not without berating her for abandoning her post.]

[sonati]

[All aboardddddd!!]

[adventuremons]

[That IceDevimon's still burning! Wow!

...However, from the Dark Field, another begins to emerge...

Garurumon better hurry back.]

[fuhrinkaed]

[Kyubimon would like to register a complaint, this is not even remotely fair!! :T]

Wielder of the claws, continue mauling the one we have felled! I shall handle this one... [She faces the new IceDevimon, fur bristling as she growls.]

You face the Flame of Balance! Back, beast, lest ye be melted before my all-powerful flame!

[...but yeah in other news Ed is on Garurumon and heading back.]
