Vorvomon is a Rookie Digimon, not too intimidating on first glance, but its fire power is impressive despite its youth and somewhat small stature. The Smackdown digidestined all cluster around, staring at it, none of them looking too thrilled with having to confront it. "I don't know," Shane mutters. "He looks like a tough situation to handle. What should we do?"
They all look towards Shinsuke and he sighs, rolling his eyes at them before shaking out his hands and walking towards the creature, Coronamon by his side. They're about to confront him, try to get answers, when he bellows out, flames washing over them and sending them both stumbling backwards. "Shinsuke!" Shane exclaims, eyes widening as Betamon lunges forward and diminishes the flames with water ability, all of them breathing a little easier, although AJ doesn't seem too thrilled with his partner helping out one of his biggest rivals of 2018.
It happens so suddenly, none of them expect anything close to it happening- Vorvomon snaps at them, sending more flames out from his snapping jaws, and then lets out a cry as if he's in pain.
"What's happening?!" Aiden exclaims, covering his ears.
"I don't know!" Shane calls back, all of the Digidestined slumping over, trying to protect their ears from the onslot. When things finally quiet, they all look up and... come to a sudden, painful stop as they stare at the flame-coated dragon type creature flying before them. "Oh shit," Shane exhales, some variation of similar curses leaving those around him. His strength is obvious, overwhelms most of their partners easily. Shinsuke even looks uncomfortable with this, and Shane exchanges glances with AJ, who shrugs helplessly as the group of them push in closer, watching Volcanicdramon warily.
"What do we do now?" Xavier asks, hugging Jammingmon close as they close ranks, trying not to give the evil looking creature any easy chance to get the drop on them with his attacks, though the uncomfortable realization that he could easily fry them all with his powerful flames is clear to all of them.
"Stay strong," Rusev says, standing between Lana and Aiden, Aiden looking uncertain and weary as his former friend turns to look at him, nodding slowly. "Understand?"
Aiden swallows, then nods back. "Yes, I do."
The group of them are trapped in the Digiworld, no way to get home, resume their careers, anything else, but sometimes desperation is enough to knit together former friendships, Lana staring back and forth from her husband to Aiden, her eyes softening as she rests a hand on Rusev's arm. "Let's figure this out," she says quietly. "As a group."
"Yes, let's," Miz agrees, and one by one, all of the Digidestined form a loose circle, keeping an eye on Volcanicdramon as they try to figure out the best way to destroy him.
