Dark Days

[whatisthislife]

Who: BlackWargreymon and anyone
What: BlackWargreymon's pretty much lost it to the SCOPE Virus, and has requested opponents
When: Before Taiki's warning is posted to the network
Where: Near Highton View Terrace, various other locations possible


BlackWargreymon stands among a ruined portion of Highton View Terrace. He could not explain why, but something about this place filled him with rage, even though he has no memory of it. And so, he'd gone about destroying every piece of it he could, paying no heed to anyone who might have been in the buildings, or walking in the streets. They mean nothing to him. All he wants is for this pain to end - no matter how that end comes.

As he had expected, a challenger had come forth on the network. If they hadn't, he would have moved his destruction to somewhere much more important to them.

Now he must merely wait, and see if this opponent is indeed powerful enough.

[The very moment his feet touch the ground, BlackWargreymon arches back, gauntlets held high. A huge sphere of energy forms between them, and within moments he's already sent it toward Dukemon.]

TERRA DESTROYER!

[thebiggestdreamer]

(It takes those same few moments for Takato to keep his left arm held up as the sphere is formed, steady and firm while calling out:)

YOU CAN'T STOP THIS! FINAL ELYSIAN!!!

[guilmon]

[Dukemon's shield lights up at Takato's command, unleashing a burst of bright, purifying energy.]

[whatisthislife]

[Just as BlackWargreymon prepares to charge toward Dukemon to follow up the Terra Destroyer, the beam of light from that shield strikes him, tossing him backward. The energy strikes him in his left shoulder, tearing through the already damaged armor - and as the blast continues, tearing off his skin as well.

As he stumbles back to his feet, it's clear as day: without the skin covering his shoulder and upper arm, there's a shiny black material that makes up his body, something that no other Digimon is made from.

But BlackWargreymon doesn't care that his body has been so damaged. His scream of anguish echoes through the ruined buildings around them, before he jumps into the air and spins himself into a whirlwind aimed straight for Dukemon.]

BLACK TORNADO!

[thebiggestdreamer]

(Uh-oh...The Black Tornado! Not good, especially since the Mega Digimon's been injured and Takato recognizes the black material instantly.)

A Control Spire Digimon...! I knew it! Guilmon, we've gotta move!

(Takato hopes Guilmon recalls that one move they did when first facing Beelzebumon for the first -and last- time as Dukemon; the one that involved their cape and a little bit of magic...?)

my aplogies for the delay; I had to go back and rewatch that scene for a quick refresher

[guilmon]

[He remembers that trick all too well, Takato. In fact, just before BlackWarGreymon touches Dukemon, he vanishes, leaving behind his cape...

Or so it seems.

A few moments after his disappearance, Dukemon can be heard shouting:]

ROYAL SABER!

[Before he rockets down, lance glowing bright blue, aiming to strike BlackWarGreymon's head.]

[whatisthislife]

[BlackWargreymon's eyes go wide the instant he strikes the cape. He immediately stops spinning, anticipating an attack, and has just enough time to bring face up and bring his gauntlets up to guard against Dukemon's lance.

The armor is shredded away at the weapon's touch, and BlackWargreymon slams into the ground so hard his body forms a crater.

But he's not done. He will never be done. He stands, oil spurting from the tubes that hold his armor together. Another agonized cry echoes through the ruins, before BlackWargreymon sends a second Terra Destroyer against his opponent.]

TERRA DESTROYER!

[thebiggestdreamer]

(If Takato wasn't experiencing this battle firsthand and up close, he would be on pins and needles in wondering how this ended. Once getting to his feet and moving back, knowing Dukemon would do the same, he held up his left arm -after pulling the right one back- and thrusting it out.

Hirokazu would find this extremely cool.)

FINAL ELYSIAN!
