That’s enough to trigger the damage threshold. The Digimon's allies turn away from you momentarily, prioritizing killing and eating their own friend once again. It's unexplainable behavior to you.
Not wanting to be outdone, the Espimon flashes a cheeky grin and flings an object at them.
<span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-g">”MOT BOMB!”</span></span>
It's nice to not be on the receiving end for once. You're left to appreciate the efficiency of that move when it blows up right in the middle of the dense crowd, denying them their kill and wounding enough of them that they start fighting anew. Espimon snickers in satisfaction and shoots you a wink. Despite your distasteful experiences with them, you find a small smile tugging at your lips. He doesn't see it behind the veil of static.
<span class="mu-s">"Get- OFF!"</span>
Porcupamon, meanwhile, is dealing with a particularly large one. This one ate multiple others and is now nearly twice as large. However, its wasted its growth by impaling itself on his spikes, dooming it to a gradual death. With its remaining energy, it's jabbing at him repeatedly and trying to tear the stitching of his puppet body apart. Your partner manages to stake him with his claws and pull him off the spikes, breaking them away from his body in the process.
<span class="mu-s">"Madness Broach!"</span>
The spikes are yanked out of his body and flung at that singular Digimon, deleting it once and for all. He pauses to catch his breath.
Once you, Ryan, and your newfound allies reach the door, they make straight for it. Espimon charges through without looking back, and you get a sinking feeling that this incident won't go unreported for long. If they're kidnapping Commandramon and Espimon, a response is imminent. The brightly-colored turtle stands at the door to wait, while the not-Tsukaimon huffs with exertion as he casts one more look at you.
<span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-g">"T-thank you! I won't forget this! Ever!"</span></span>
You nod at the Digimon as they load themselves out of the partition and vanish into the Hospital.
