A momentary sign of overconfidence and optimism caused Tango to make a fatal mistake. As he wished to brandish his swords in the heat of battle, he didn't account for Luther's natural speed and mischievous tactics, caught him off guard. Tango's eyes grew wide open as his last attack barely made a scratch and was simply parried away. As Tango's head turned, he found Luther had already circled behind him and made a quick strike, causing a loud negative sound to be echoed. The sound blared as if it was a sports event goal that was made against Tango. His expression intensified as he threw his hands and blades to his side. "What was that?!" He asked angrily. "Where was the flare? The back and forth?! How are we to have a combat for the ages if you simply wish to be done and over with it?" Fire emblazened his keyblades as his raged increased. "If you want to be finished the battle so quickly, then so be it!" Several keyblades dispersed into the air as they formed a snake like pattern and began circling around Tango before bursting into flame. "Prepare yourself... For the Dragon's Fury!" He swirved his keyblades as if controlling the sentient ones and directed it towards Luther. The flaming keyblade's grew larger in fire until the flames made the shape of a giant burning dragon, with the keyblades acting as the bones. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As Kiara approached the laboratory, a large explosion had blast from within the building. The explosion threw back any of the nearby oncoming people and even managed to destroy some Nequabot remains. Kiara received most of the blast being the closest, but seeing as it was a fire-styled bombardment, it thankfully wasn't too fatal. The explosion had a large enough range that it caused a massive pushback to many in the area. The range even managed to push over Mizu's pod, causing her to spill out from it and shock herself awake. The blue haired girl coughed heavily as she slowly got up off the ground. Small smudges of black were seen on her face from the blast as she looked to the burning building in front of them. "What... what happened?" she asked in disorientation.
Aux watched as a small group of Neoshadows rose from the ground in front of him. They tilted their heads, looking at the sky aimlessly as they rose like black ink from the ground to the leveled plain. They looked to Aux with intense glowing eyes as their hand lay limp and their legs swayed towards him. Their bent antennae dangled far behind them, reaching almost to their lower back as they swayed their head back and forth. One of the Neoshadows jumped high into the air, prompting Aux to tilt his head up as he watched the Neoshadow jump. The heartless looked down immediately and made a mad gliding dash towards the man. Aux remained in place as he watched the heartless approach him at an alarming speed. One thing Aux was good with however was reflexes. His cardio was on par with Hikaru's, but his reflex was more like that of Kaida's. As the Neoshadow prepared to scratch away at his face, Aux quickly grabbed the Neoshadow by it's head causing it to flail. Aux glared at the creature as he jumped into the air, the heartless' head still in his palm, covering it's eyes. As Aux jumped back down, he swung down his hand, slamming his palm and the heartless' head with it. Headless, the Neoshadow began to stagger a bit, walking around like a chicken without it's head. Taking his keyblade, Aux made a wuick slash at it's torso, causing the rest of his body to evaporate into black smoke. Without it's head, the torso and by extension, the rest of it's bod was severely weaker and practically a one hit. Throwing his keyblade over his shoulder, he looked to the other Neoshadows who watched in horror as the last Neoshadow was brutally disposed of before their eyes. "Next." Aux asked standing with confidence. The Neoshadows looked to each other and back to Aux, twitching violently before they ran along the ground towards him. The two Neoshadows ran quickly, one of them attacking from the sky, and the other from the ground. Taking quick not of his current situation, Aux ducked down and swept his leg under the bottom heartless to trip it off balance. While he did this, he pointed his keyblade straight into the sky with a powerful stabbing motion. The heartless attacking from the sky was subsequently stabbed in the torso as it evaporated instantly. He looked back to the heartless he tripped prior and swung down his keyblade in a warhammer-like motion. The powerful momentum and impact caused the heartless to fade before his eyes. Two more Neoshadows snuck to his sides as they rose from their shadow sneak state to surprise Aux with a sneak attack. He let go of his keyblade, droping it to the ground. This next maneuver he needed both hands for. With both his hands he grabbed the back of each Neoshadow's head. With full force, he pushed the Neoshadows' heads to rush into each other as if they were headbutting. The powerful force and impact caused them both to be dazed as they staggered back with tiny stars floating about their head. Aux re-summoned his keyblade as he slashed away at both their leveled necks. Like before, they both were decappitated of their heads and began to twitch as their bodies slowly faded from the battlefield. He looked to the right, watching a small shadow heartless watching. The heartless slowly backed up, but Aux was relentless in letting it survive. He tossed keyblade quickly in a spiralling motion, finishing off the heartless with a quick strike raid attack. He looked back to Aislinn for some sort of sports term to give her. "Uhh... foul I guess."
