Okuwamon’s mouth lights up, giving Astamon only a moment of warning. He tries to change trajectory, but he’s already mid-air. A gigantic bolt of lightning surges from between its mandibles, engulfing most of your partner’s body.
“ASTAMON!”
When the smoke clears, you catch sight of him again, down on one knee and with half his suit singed. One arm has been damaged through the fabric, and static blood is leaking from beneath the charred texture. The coat’s edges have been transformed into red hot cinders, and he gingerly pinches an ignited ember between his fingers before it can spread.
<span class="mu-s">”That all you got?”</span>
Okuwamon throws its head back to roar, then slams its claws down, trying to catch him in the shockwave. It’s an attack that would likely kill any lesser Digimon from the sheer force, but from the fact that it’s using it on Astamon, you get the feeling it’s not used to fighting other Ultimates yet.
The aftershock blows away segments of his ripped coat, but Astamon takes advantage of the ruined street and weaves between several pieces of debris. He climbs up a section of wall and leaps off, hanging above the behemoth’s head for a brief moment, before his lower half becomes engulfed in purple fire.
<span class="mu-s">”MAVERICK!”</span>
<span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-r">”SCISSOR ARMS Ω”</span></span>
Every edge on the Digimon is wreathed in green energy. Its mandibles double, triple, then quadruple in length, and so do its twin talons on each hand. Like a pair of scissors, the creature spreads its arms and bladed mouthparts outwards. It has to open up its stance before it can close down on your partner and delete him. On the other end of the wrecked road, Astamon is flying towards the Okuwamon with a devastating Maverick kick. In order to survive, he has to travel fast enough to get past those incoming blades.
He's not going to make it.
