Sunshine looks like death, Koh thinks. Its normal white and blue is black and red, like fresh black eyes and bruises after a beating beatings he never had, beatings someone had who just looked like him. He grits his teeth and then freezes. Sayo's fingers brush his and he follows her gaze. She points towards the walls, towards Pulsa, towards the friends he hadn't really known. He swallows and steps forward.
Something rushes him in that instant and he jumps aside, almost into Sayo's arms. Totally not embarrassing, nope. She seems too nervous herself to say anything. He shudders. "Great, fighting my friends again."
"Dungeon bypass?" she offered.
Koh blinks at her and then he finds himself smiling.
"You're brilliant," he says and means it. Her face flames up but she sobers quickly.
Moments later, Apollomon and Dianamon are crashing into the gate between them and the Union Room. The Knightmon don't stan a chance against a scythe's reach. The butterflies fade, even when Pulsa, Tonpei, and Cheetah chase them down the halls. He can actually hit them. He doesn't like them, but he does it anyway.
They can't waste too much energy though. They have to fight Glare and if Julia was any indication, this was going to be hell.
