Having faced most of the very extreme circumstance in her life as a tamer, Sayo wouldn't say that she was stunned by what's going on in front of her, that's nothing more than two beings merging themselves together, like Jogress Evolution or something like that. In fact the main cause of her fear is that the already formidable Grimmon was now evolving in front of her, and she had got nothing to stop that, no plan, no backup.
Dianamon, on the other hand, didn't hesitate in engaging combat with the digimon standing in front of it, shooting multiple ice arrows towards the glowing Grimmon. Not to anyone's surprise, it didn't make any movement to dodge the attack, but rather standing still to complete the transformation until its body became half red and half blue, with legs replacing its initial snake like body.
'I don't think I can like that.' commented Sayo as she took a look at the now evolved Grimmon's appearance, clearly the red and blue color scheme didn't work out quite well when they're separated with one side being entirely red and the other side being the complete opposite.
Noticing that the hands of Grimmon were now hook shaped and without a seemingly blaster like weapon, Dianamon decided it would be wise to maintain a certain distance with its enemy, again firing several iced arrows at its target.
'You're playing this too boring!' said Grimmon as it waved its wings, creating a strong gale that blew all the arrows away while charging at Dianamon, ready to slash with its curved claws.
'Beware your own arrogance may lead to your downfall.' Said Dianamon, using its scythe to counter the strike from the magnetic looking digimon, managing to hold the attack, just barely as its strength was outmatched by that of her foe. The force of the strike caused it to slam at the ground, not able to stand up in time for the next strike.
Slowly Grimmon walked towards the fallen Dianamon, ready to make the fatal strike. 'It's so easy!' it claimed, with a tone mixed with arrogance and dissatisfactory.
The fight would have ended if there hadn't been another strike from a distant point, distracting Grimmon from its business.
'Oh! You've arrived after all!' Grimmon said as its target now turned into the dyed bluish purple haired tamer.
'So you've got legs now!' taunted Koh, walking calmly towards the battlefield. 'Apollomon, ready to strike!'
Without a word Apollomon rushed to Grimmon with golden yellow flame glowing on its armored fists, punching its foe with lightning speed. Seconds later the injured Grimmon could be seen after the flames that had it burnt faded.
'Is nobody interested in how I was able to here?' complained Koh as the battle went on. 'You walked on the transport gate and it sent you here, that's basically how it works.' Said Sayo.
'What? No, I was trapped in the union room!' muttered Koh.
'Will you focus on the battle if I say I'm interested?' Sayo couldn't stand the tamer anymore.
'Of course I will, that might be our only way out of here.' Said Koh, 'As I stood there my mind raced faster than ever, and…'
'To the point!'
'All right! I had Apollomon blasted a hole in the union room and tried to find a way out from the inner layer of the digital world, not long before I met you here.'
'So you're saying that this place is the inside of the world?'
'Basically, yes.'
Meanwhile the battle between the digimon continued as Dianamon joined in the fight, providing a strong distraction for Grimmon with its high velocity combat skills such that Apollomon was able to aim and fire another wave of energy arrows. Too bad it's all too predictable to the red and blue colored digimon as it gripped one arm of Dianamon and swung it over to make it act like a shield for Grimmon, Arrows with concentrated energy were jetting at Dianamon at the moment as it was thrown towards them, fortunately it managed to slash a few of them out of the way so it wouldn't hurt much.
Now gotten rid of Dianamon Grimmon dashed straight towards Apollomon, striking with its multi-bladed right arm. Apollomon, despite having more interest in close combat, dodged the attack and keep firing arrows to distract its enemy. The arrows, though missed the target, were able to create thick layers of smoke to, hopefully, confuse Grimmon for a while.
Using the only chance Apollomon rushed to the visually hindered Grimmon, ready to finish it off with a punch. This, however, was a chance to Grimmon too as it noticed the rushing sound of the less careful opponent and waved its wings to knock it out before could do any damaged to it.
'Your little tricks aren't working,' said Grimmon as it approached the tamers, 'you will be pleased to have witnessed this.'
After finishing the line Grimmon was ready to commence the final strike, but just about the same moment it was suddenly paused, stopping all the actions it had been making, resulting in a vegetated states like all others it had controlled.
'I sensed that you've changed your mind.' A voice that doesn't belong to the digimon said.
'I never changed my mind,' Said Grimmon with amazing calmness, 'you just failed to notice my true intension all the time!'
'How dare you!'
'What's the point of destroying the world? How can that benefit me?'
Spotting the opportunity both Apollomon and Dianmon got up and charged at the target, only to get caught by Grimmon and were kicked away. 'Try not to interrupt others conversation.' It said.
'Now is our best chance,' said Sayo, directing Dianamon to attack. 'Try to use the Solblaster.' Suggested Koh.
'But you told me never to use it!'
'Unless absolutely necessary!'
With its tamer's approval Apollomon generated a fireball with the temperature of the sun's surface hidden right in the heart of the giant sphere, tossing it towards the currently frozen Grimmon, causing a violent explosion that blurred everything visible within hemispheric space with the radius of 60 meters starting from Grimmon as the center.
Believing that their enemy was now gone, the tamers were able to enjoy a moment of relief, only a moment, until they heard the noise that was coming from the clearing smoke and noticing a black and purple figure that stood in it.
'This is only the beginning.'
