weep little lion man, you're not as brave as you were at the start.

Who: Cam, Maya, and YOU, aka open in a little
What: A Dark Digivolution in the making.
When: Friday, October 18th, afternoon
Where: Crest of Courage training area, likely other places later.

It's been a really long and trying week so far.

For the last few days, because everything seems to be going weird, Cam's been trying to train. His ribs are healed, and in fact they healed faster than they probably should've; something good to this world, and it made him think -- maybe he should be getting back to it, to routines and workouts. After all, Lucette's strong, strong enough to reach Ultimate. And sure, first he tried the public training area, but he might have almost picked a fight with a Gabumon in the area, so Lucette had recommended they keep to the one in the Crest of Courage district.

So then fine, that's what they've been doing. As Seasarmon, she's run drills and laps, and Cam's worked himself to exhaustion. Every time she tries to suggest taking a break, he snaps, he shakes his head, he grumbles, there're dangerous people out there, and he keeps going and tells her to get back to work too.

Only when she gets so tired that she de-digivolves does he give her a break, and in one of those she'd had enough, sneaked away with his D-Terminal to the only help she can think of and sent a message to Maya.

Campbell is acting weird. crest of courage training. maybe you can help him. message when you're here.

...so she'd written, since poor Maya couldn't even get into the district without a Crest of Courage holder. Lucette herself could get in fine, so maybe if she can sneak off at the right time...

She keeps the D-Terminal and keeps to the side, watching as Cam does runs, wearing those roller-skates that had done him so much good months and months back. He's sweating and breathing hard, but he keeps quietly cursing himself every time he starts to stop or slow. After the first day of this... Well, Lucette's very much aware that whatever she says, he won't listen.

Maybe Maya will have more luck.

"Gazimon, come out quickly! Now's your only chance!"

As it was, though, even with her Holy Ring's help, Tailmon didn't have much of a chance- Those jaws were strong. Still, with the cries, Tailmon took her chance- She had to wriggle out, so she was trying to squeeze past those sharp fangs as quickly as she could.

Kyubimon would have held on with the best of her ability (which would have lasted for maybe a second) if not for Ed's interruption. "Let go, jump back!"

The fling came at the same time, tossing her off a fair bit farther than intended. She skidded to a stop, not even done landing before Ed's shouted again. "CHARGE!"

A brief nod as she dashed towards the dark digimon. The goal was to get out Tailmon.

Ed's solution? "Ram it headfirst, aim for the solarplexus!" The Heimlich maneuver.

Kyubimon lowered her head and gave it her all, hoping to give aid to her comrade.

The response here is less instantaneous. As the swings get closer to her, Alex freezes. She can escape- But where to? She doesn't want to get hurt- that's normal, right? She can't fight back against this. And without Bastemon, they can't win, can they? But her Crest won't react...

She grips her Crest tightly and closes her eyes. Gazimon, someone, help!

With that, the crest glows. Not the normal maroon of the Crest of Desire, but a bright, burning white. The glow engulfs the flying Tailmon, who begins to grow, but the light renders her too bright to look at.

"Tailmon, evolve! Angewomon!"

Before the light fades, Angewomon has already arrested her momentum mid-air, pointed her wrist at ShadowWereGarurumon and begun to launch a barrage of arrows between it and Alex.

Kyubimon, for her part, took the initiative to back out of there and skid to a stop. As she did, Ed hops on her and pats her flank. "Back off... we've got two ultimates."

Kyubimon started backing away slowly. "If that is your wish--but are you not wanting to support her?"

"That's not her usual Bastemon. Something bad's going to happen--leave it to Alex to somehow mess up and get an angel."

For now, the two simply observe.

"Heaven's Charm!" Was the only reply from the angel, as a cross of pink light emanated from her wrists between the two.

Alex, meanwhile, was staring up at her Digimon in a mix of wonderment and confusion. This... wasn't right, was it? Her partner wasn't supposed to be an angel. Her partner was the weird cat thing. What had happened to Gazimon?

Kyubimon (With Ed in tow) skids to a stop next to Alex, and Ed holds out a hand for her to help her up.

"Get on. Angewoman's an angel-type. She should be strong against anything having to do with shadow, so she's going to wipe the floor with ShadowWereGarurumon. In the meanwhile, we should probably run."

If there was one thing Ed knew about (other than magic and Dark Fields), it was Dark Digivolution... And while the light from Alex's digivice was certainly not the same as the darkness that came out of his, he was willing to bet it was connected.
