As the world around the assembled Digimon erupted into a maelstrom of screaming red and black and the air above became a lethal rain of crystalline blades, it seemed for a moment as if the freshly-awakened Moon=Millenniummon’s opening salvo would likewise be the coup de grace of the continued battle.
But in a fraction of a second so slight that even light would be hard-pressed to escape, a barrier of shimmering orange fractals forced their way into existence above them, staying the hand of death for a moment longer.
“Scatter!” With Avalon creating a momentary pocket of safety against Moon=Millenniummon’s assault and blocking out the howling winds, Parasimon barked the first order that came to mind. The shield would hold, but only briefly. Though none of the crystals by themselves could break through it, the sight and sound of cracks spreading as they began to shallowly puncture its surface was testament to how short-lived that reprieve would be.
Dorugoramon was, needless to say, furious; enraged, seething, furious. While she did as Parasimon asked, she wasn’t happy with what she had to resort to, fleeing with her tail between her metallic legs. The fog obscuring her view didn’t help her case, and the accumulated stress was threatening to snap her already tenuous grasp on sanity.
Said grasp promptly snapped as soon as her eyes caught a shot of Moon=Millenniummon.
Maddened with rage and reverting to her feral state, Dorugoramon let out an ear-piercing, metallic roar, clearly no longer caring about everyone else in her warpath. She then clasped her claws together as a ball of energy formed between her palms before exploding in a thunderous blast, releasing a destructive shockwave aimed straight at Moon=Millenniummon. It was clear who she was after, but she didn’t seem to care about anyone else about to be caught in the crosshairs.
It was as that ferocious shockwave was loosened that Avalon finally gave; the force of Dorugoramon’s attack colliding with Moon=Millenniummon’s shattering the orange barrier as it blasted through the opposite side and deflected the stayed crystals.
“You’ve got to be kidding me…” Fortunately for Parasimon, he’d moved in time to not take a hit from the DORU Din, dropping to the ground and digging his spear into the ground so that he wasn’t decapitated or blown away by the sheer force of the maddened Dorugoramon’s assault. But that was where his fortune ended. As Avalon shattered, it would take more time than the abomination above would allow him to reform; and while he sensed from his inability to sense their vital signs or hear their dying screams that Dynasmon and BanchoLeomon had gotten clear-
“An insect like you should know all too well the futility of your endeavours.”Whatever had come over Beelzemon, it had him frozen in position on the ground, unable to move or respond to Parasimon beyond the vile words that spewed from his mouth in a cold, dispassionate voice that seemed completely alien coming from the usually glib and cocksure Demon Lord. Perhaps he should just leave him to die, cut the burden loose-
“Fuck!” Parasimon hissed with fury, forcing the sudden dark thought out of his head as soon as it came. Avalon was out and if they stayed where they were, chances were Dorugoramon would incapacitate them even if they drew Moon=Millenniummon’s attention. So, not content to waste any more time than he already had, he snatched up the paralyzed Beelzemon in two of his insectoid claws.
‘Stay in the water. All hell’s broken loose and you’ll only make yourself a target by breaching,’ with one last, hurried message to Examon via their link, Parasimon took into the air, weaving around the shockwave and making to look for an ally who wasn’t overcome by madness.
