Nordu grins viciously as he looks around the battlefield, locking his gaze on the tiny floating bell. If the robots weren't able to hurt the golem thing there was no way in hell his bat would. Metal was metal, after all. With that decided Nordu charges forward, letting out a roar as he brings his bat down on the tiny bell, sending it crashing into the ground. He raises his shield instinctively, guarding himself against the golem. Nordu uses Wounding Strike with an AP boost! 16 to hit, 32+Tick damage. That should KO!
Use my last AP for Shield Bearer!

The strange creature or Gothita as the Dex had labelled it started at Yua for one unblinking moment before it pivoted and repeated the same stare start at the captive golem, except more intense and surround by a purple glow that builds up before suddenly dispersing and unleashing something that makes a dull impacting sound when it hits.

Yoshihira couldn't hold back from the thrill as he witnessed the whole process of his own doing. No way when he woke up for the day that he would imagine himself to be put into such a situation, to be given power by whatever deity or deities out there. His years of occult research were all for this moment of truth. His fate, like those heroes he has played in various games, were destined. He could burn down demon, exorcise their soul away...wait a second, the bell was waking up? His exorcism didn't work? Damn it!
"You really want to fight, huh? Let's try this..." He sought through his bag for other occult items, trying to find one that would give him the highest chance to do something against this unknown demon and that actually didn't matter at all. While he was searching, the Bell was promptly taken down by a beam of light out of nowhere and homerun swing for the gangster teammate. So, the demon was not immune to physical attack? How disappointing and nonthreatening.
As he has a moment to scan around, he realized the battle escalated much quicker than he expected. All the time he was wasting there trying to talk to communicate with the demon, his fellow comrades have put into better use than him in exterminating their own demons and there was just one last demon to fight. It looked like his "holy fire" wasn't doing enough.
As he was looking to the demon, he felt something just hit the device around his waist. Picking it up instinctively, he saw that he was contracted to the Bell demon? Or the demon to him? Whatever, this was just one lowly demon with no intelligence, he gave no extra thought to a demon of this rank. From what he understood, a demon could be cunning but they always respected their contract so, time to see if the human's version of this part was true. He hit the button and sent the demon out. "See? You are under me now. This would have been much easier if you just listen to me a moment ago. Now attack that thing." He pointed at the final demon, expecting this bell thing to follow his command.
Now that he realized his holy power was not impactful enough, it was time to look back at his bag for occult tools and the first thing he saw was the bunch of Chinese cleansing tags. Daoism, could it work? There's only one way to find out. "Hey powerful guy, see if you can hit that thing with this tag on."
Yoshihira looked at his thumb, pondering. It's okay, you have seen it done many times on shows. He bit. Ouch, Holy Son of the Lord. Quickly, he waved through the wording on the cleanse tag with his blood while his bloody thumb. His mouth blabbering in language that was clearly not Japanese. When he was done with it, he tagged it hard right on Nordu's bat. "Go on."
Yoshihira(HP 68/80, AP 4/6) Shift: Release Chingling, 1 square to the right Standard: Put 1 Cleanse Tag on Nordu's weapon
Chingling(HP ?/53) Shift: Close in Standard: Attack - Astonish(DB 3, Ghost Physical; Flinch 15+;Super Effective) AC: 1d20 = 17 Flinch Super Effective Damage: 1d6+5+3 = 4+8 = 12

Seeing everyone sorting itself out, they only had one of these shady creature to put down before they could sit down and try to make sense of it all "Oh you might think your tough now but let's see beat everyone here!" the Idol declare with a stomp of her foot and a flourish of her hand, the illumination surrounding her spun and flared around her legs reminiscent of a dress, the action was remarkably familiar having performed it on stage many times before giving Yua an even greater surge of confidence and to her surprise, power.

"Uhhh...yeah!" Tsubaki said feeling a bit more confident as Yua and the others moved forward to gang up on the cute ghost thing. She quickly tried to grab some dirt and throw it at the thing. She didn't know what she could do, but it was better than nothing.

With a large amount of swift movement from Nordu, he rushes across the field, smashing his bat once more into the body of the bell. It's body finally falling to the ground and being lost to a swirling vortex of blue numbers, pixels and lights. The monster being turned into a small blue sphere, and then being sucked back into Yoshira's dex. Gothia complies with her trainers commands releasing a blast of purple energy impacting with a loud satisfying thud into the rock golem. Yoshira taking his moment to order his creature, he orders it to attack the gollet, and the creature quickly complies. Flying across the field now glowing with a different darker purple energy. Releasing a quick surprising yell next to the creature and knocking it about inside the grip of the larger robot. This Left Yua to have a moment a luminecent dress appearing around her body, and herself feeling stronger as that light enveloped it. This gave Tsubaki a chance to do something, Leomon still holding onto the monster in it's hands, she grabs some dirt throwing it's .... Face? yeah that's likely what it was. The rocky creature temporarilly blinded, flails it's arms more unable to strike Leomon in the same area only causing glancing blows from his fists to pound into the side of the leomon as it's burn from earlier continues to eat at it's side. Nordu introduces percussive matinence to the malfunctioning bell.
Gothia uses confusion on the gollett.
It now fixed Yoshira releases the bell once more, and it properly uses astonish for super effective damage against the gollett, then slaps a tag onto nordu's bat.
Yua dances empowering herself.
Finally leaving behind Tsubaki who throws around dirt.
It still standing the blinded creature flails it's arms, failing to hit anything and feeling the pain from the burn.

"They do as we say?" Nordu snarls, absent-mindedly watching the strange creatures assault the golem in front of him. Nordu summons the strange ball to his hand, before spiking it into the ground next to him.
"Tear him apart!" Nordu shouts at the dog, hoping that the creature would have more success hitting the golem than the others had. After all, the strange bell had apparently been able to inflict damage on it. The tiny dog tears forward, leaping into the air before slamming into the golem's chest, fangs finding purchase in the creature before finally knocking it unconcious.

The dog flies forward going as quickly as it's stubby legs will take it, and bites into the creature. Causing it's rocky exterior to crack, and the rest of it's body to be shattered into blue light, pixels, and numbers. A blue ball dropping onto Leomon's chest.
The ball flies back and inserts itself into Tsubaki's Dex.
With that the dexes flashed twice, before the dexes sucked the creatures back inside.
A voice came out of the dexes, and Shin's face appeared on the screen. He stood in front of a white board, and was grinning at them with a large toothy smile.
"Hey there! many of you know me, but there's a chance you don't. I'm the creator of these devices, Shin. I'm going to quickly explain to you the functions of this device. It's called a dex. It has a number of functions." He said.
He motioned to the board behind him, and wrote on it, "Using the ARICPU, It allows me to scan the future for particular results. Namely your future to your friends via the Friend death alert system, and the future of the area your in via the lapras mail system. Then gives you information based on it. One that could not be changed.... if it wasn't for...."
He reached into his pocket and pulled out his own Dex, "To make a long explanation short, a being outside of the control of Arceus gave me a fraction of his power. By placing all of your bodies on the same wavelength, you become an effective container for a fraction of his power allowing you to go go against the natural order of the world"
"Though alone you aren't strong enough, so by placing power from that being on the internet I created a number of weaker creatures, that could equally change destiny. Called Mons. Then made it so that you could establish a contract with that space, and have limited control over the monsters inside of it. Come find me if you want the deeper explanations, this is an entire other talk." Shin said explaining.
He then said, "right now you must be wondering, what would have happened if you had died? Well the dex would've continued to spit out monsters like the ones you fought, immune to all natural weaponry, unless it was being held by another dex user."
He then explained writing the word auction on the board, "Those monsters from dead Dex users, can be caught using the Auction app on this Dex. By tapping the Auction app you can launch an blue ball called an auction ball from the dex, to upload them into a separate space I've set up to contain them. Based on the strength of what you've caught, you can pull monsters caught by yourself or others out of that space. Bidding on them, and buying them from the server. With the currency given for catches called Monnca."
He then wrote Cathedral of Kalos on the board, "The Cathedral of Kalos allows you to sacrifice one of the mons, and to empower the other."
"Last but most usefully is the Mon crack system. At the start of any encounter of more than five mon, you can mark a mon to resonate with. If you catch that mon, or destroy it you can absorb it's power and make yourself stronger" Shin said writing mon crack on the system.
Wtih that he said, "Those are the basics. Let's survive."
With that they shut off, and the area around them turned silent. Their dexes now on the page to summon the monsters once more.

"Well that was a whole lot of words to tell us nothing," Nordu says, breathing heavily as he leers at the tiny machine in his hand. "What the hell is an Arceus? How the hell did Shin make a machine that can tell the future?" Nordu adds, rubbing his temples momentarily. "All I'm getting out of this is that Shin made a deal with something, made a bunch of monsters, and made some people able to hurt them. And he wants us to get stronger, to survive? To survive what?" Nordu asks, setting his shield on the ground as he pulls a pair of heavy, metal-lined gloves out of his bag, pulling them up to his elbows before slinging his bag over his back.
"We need to find Shin," Nordu says to his new companions, turning to head out of the alley before pausing, jabbing a few buttons on the 'dex until a ball finally appears in his hand. Without much ceremony Nordu spikes it on the ground, watching as the tiny grey form appears. "Are you going to listen to me?" Nordu asks, leering at the tiny dog once again. "Or am I going to have to put you away?"

As the creature turned into a ball and flew to her Tsubaki stumbled backwards surprised until it went into her dex. She looked down at the digidevice, wondering if she now had a nice creature like the rest. However, before she could find out she saw Shin's face appear on the screen. Confusion filled her as he spoke and had it not been for the explosions and summoning monsters Tsubaki wouldn't have believed any of it.
However it was hard to argue impossible after what had happened already. When the message ended, she frowned as she tried to make sense of it. Her train of thought was cut off by the scary man's comments. As he turned to head out the alley she nervously followed. If this stuff was real then the tough man was right Shin was in danger. And he seemed the strongest and most likely to be able to do so.
As the man asked about listening she cringed. "I...can listen..." She said nervously before realizing he was talking to the weird digimon.

With the fighting over Yua flops on the ground with a sigh "Stupid Shin, thought I was gonna die. When I catch him I'm gonna — Huh?" Yua was stopped mid rant by the phone lighting up with Shin's face, she managed to keep from going on a rant until the dex screen faded back to what was presumably the main menu judging by the names of the apps she could see "Argh, this makes no freaking sense" was the frustrated outburst she started with before "And you betcha we're gonna find Shin, wring the answers outta his sorry little neck" a solid agreement with Nordu's idea
Tiring of sitting on the ground, it wasn't exactly the most comfortable of places Yua made to stand up "Ow" and winces as she put weight onto her right foot "This sucks, think I sprained it" she whines as she moves over to pick up her bag which ended up being discarded during the fight.

The dog looked at him with an angry look, and barked. It didn't look happy, but it didn't look like it was going to attack him either. Just standing there and looking at Nordu.

For a moment, Yoshihira was disappointed that the fight was done before he could test out his cleanse tag. He did bite his finger for the first time after all and that took guts and all that effort was wasted. Then, Shin popped up on the screen, drawing his attention away.
Yoshihira, like the others, took the content of the video in quietly. There were a lot of things he was curious about, like what in the world is ARICPU and how could it determine someone's death. Is Hell this digital? Has Steve Job brought his whole line of electronic products to the afterlife? What in the world is an Arceus? It certainly wasn't anything he knew despite his knowledge in the occult field. The most disappointing part was the monster. They were not exactly demon, more like digitized mythical beast of some kind. His cool deal with a demon was just...his imagination. He looked at the bell-shaped thing floating in the air, not exactly sure if he should be happy or sad about having this thing to begin with. Could Shin at least give him a cooler monster?
Then came the part about capturing monsters and whatever. It really felt like he was on a large-scale game show, except it was legit and real. Sighed, he put the Dex away and left the floating bell out for now. He wasn't sure what to do. Looking at the others, which he assumed he would be sticking with for now, they were more or less just resting after the fight. Yoshihira didn't really do much physical work in the fight so he was feeling totally fine.
"Hey you, what can you offer me? What are you good at?" With too much time in his hand, he decided to just mess around with his monster.

The floating bell didn't do anything. Not shaking or reacting viably to Yoshira's words. After a moment it started to glow, then it faded. Then it shook it's body making a ringing sound before it then faded again.

At Yua's remark about spraining her leg, Tsubaki timidly pipes up. "Umm...I'm not a doctor, but my family is and I learned a lot so ummm... I can do some like basic first aid if any of you need it..." Tsubaki mumbled while looking over at Leomon's damage. She had finally built her new friend and now he was already banged up and damaged. She sighed in annoyance. She hadn't brought her repair kit because she hadn't expected to need it so soon. "Sadly, Leomon will be harder to fix up without a repair kit..."

"We can worry about fixing your toy and bandages later," Nordu states. "Right now we need to find Shin, and Ōsaki is the best starting point. After all, if anything describes Shin, it's strange," Nordu says, looking down at his phone and reading the news. "Anyways, if half the things Shin said are true, we can help ourselves to anything in the city soon," Nordu adds, thinking about the creatures. If he was the only one in the Yakuza that could fight the monsters, well, they would need him a hell of a lot more than normal. He could leverage this quite a bit, if he played his cards right.

"He's not a toy. He is a friend!" Tsubaki frowned as she spoke. It was probably the most forceful thing she had said all day compared to her normal mumbled and quietness.

"That's nice to know, but I don't care" Yua snaps back at Nordu over Tsubaki's initial comments "While you went all barbarian on something with just a set of sharp teeth I was dealing with something that was attacking me with invisible God knows what!" Yua finished the triad by turning back to Tsubaki "Even if it's just basic first aid, I got no clue if that thing, Gothita did to me aside from bash me around. Better now rather than later to see if they pull anything nasty alongside that" Yua said soundly a little concerned, the dex was just words with unknown meanings, how she wished for the thing to have some sort of lexicon or glossary.

"I'm sure the little runt hurt your feelings, but you're not going to die," Nordu says matter-of-factly. "If Shin doesn't give us answers, you will. I'm going to Ōsaki, the three of you can do whatever the hell you want," Nordu states, walking away quickly. Sure, the girl had some sort of lightshow of a power, but he wasn't going to waste his time getting a medical evaluation when his only chance at answers could be dying.

"Errr...M-maybe I can examine while we walk?" She asked nervously. She didn't like the big scary guy, but at the same time he seemed pretty strong and if monsters were going to run around maybe they should stick together.
