Ais watched in wonder as the ship landed in front of the trio, the metallic fist unclenching and a ramp sliding out from the index finger. Truly a magnificent ship. He would need to get one like that. "Heh. A fitting ship for the ruler of an empire. It has a commanding presence." The Arcosian followed Xylo into the ship. The inside wasn't nearly as impressive. Reminded him of his father's ship. At least, the grey color scheme did. Ais looked around in curiosity as the trio made their way to the gravity chamber.
Xylo then asked the Arcosian why he bothered to join his army when he could just as easily have joined up with his own people. "Well, at first, it was simply circumstance. I had to deal with a mutiny recently. I hit a patch of bad luck. Which leads me to what sealed the deal. The Saiyans and their infernal empire took everything from me. They took the land I was destined to rule, they killed my father, destroyed my army, and forced me to flee like a common refugee. When I heard there was someone willing to stand up to them, I simply had to join up. I honestly believe we-- you-- are our best bet at ridding the galaxy of all the monkey filth." Ais's voice dripped with venom every time he talked about Saiyans.
Then, they finally reached it at last; the gravity chamber. It was a lovely sight. Xylo entered in some numbers on a keypad and the door slid open. The Arcosian was quite surprised when he saw the inside. This gravity chamber was quite different from his father's. Xylo's gravity chamber appeared to stretch in all directions. Ais was certain there had to be some simulation involved. The chamber seemed too large for the ship. His father had a circular chamber that was good for individual training, but you could actually have a serious battle in here! Ais looked forward to getting to it. It seemed they would be starting at ten times Namek's gravity. "Lovely! Seems like as good a place as any to start." Cello had remained silent thus far, taking in the sights and the sounds of conversation. When Xylo asked about the gravity, he finally spoke.
"Ten times gravity? Sounds like a lot. I am prepared, though."

Xylo couldn't help but chuckle at Ais' venomous dislike of Saiyans. It seemed that was a trait that even an Arcosian as unique as Ais couldn't help but keep. "Ridding the galaxy of monkey filth isn't exactly my goal, but hopefully crushing their Empire into bits is just as good to you. I employ my fair share of Saiyans-- they're excellent soldiers, provided they're fighting for the right side, of course. I hope that doesn't put a bad taste in your mouth." He continued tapping away at the console, and suddenly the room was bathed in a deep red light. The gravity alteration machine that hid beneath the tiles slowly whirred to life, as Xylo spoke once more. "I assure you that your family and your land will be avenged, but I can't promise that I'll be hunting down every living Saiyan. One of my oldest friends is a Saiyan, and I doubt he'd appreciate me killing all of his kin." With one last input, the machine activated, and the room they were standing in disappeared beneath their feet. In mere moments, they were whisked away to a new location: Planet Vegeta, or rather, a simulation of it. The four of them stood in the middle of a barren wasteland. Red rocks and pink skies were the only visible thing for miles. It was all they'd need for a fight like this one. "Do you feel it yet? The increased weight hits you like a train once it starts up. It's nothing like weighted gear; even at its lowest setting, you'll feel like a sack of bricks. You need to acclimate yourself to that pressure, and once you've done that, fighting in the real world will feel like a breeze."Xylo cracked his knuckles, his eyes darting between his three foes. If these three wanted to stand a chance, they'd need to use teamwork, and a lot of it. Hopefully they'd figure that out before long. The Mazoku Lord's purple Ki Aura burned to life around him as he lowered his center of gravity. His clawed hands came up in front of him; one stretched outwards, the other kept close to his chest. He gave a nod, before speaking plainly. "Come at me whenever you're ready."

The large elongated fingers were always a disarming sight to see, and he assumed that was why Xylo implored such a strange choice in design. HE walked through the halls, happy that Xylo took into consideration the size of a Nemkain when they went Giant form. He ran his fingers along the pale grey of the walls, letting loose a tapping noise as he wandered through, listening as Ais and Xylo discussed why Ais had joined in the first place. He assumed Cello joined simply because Ais did the same. He let loose a long drawn out breath, he didn't know what the state of the Mazoku and Arcosian Empire were at but hearing that the two were allies did alleviate some of his stress for the upcoming war.
Dantalion looked around, Xylo had managed to turn the boring chrome and grey room of the gravity chamber turn to a completely new environment. Maybe he should have looked a little deeper into things before simply turning on the gravity when he was training with Tomoka and Ais. He watched as Xylo got into position, Dantalion lowering himself as he fueled himself up with Ki. "Well. Even with everything I got. I doubt this will do much. But to hell with it. Might as well fire everything I got in one desperate strike I suppose." Dantalion sighed, he had already dealt with the ten times gravity and his main strategy was as little movement as possible but considering this was Xylo and merely Tomoka and Trumpet, he doubted he could implore such a strategy.
Dantalion's garnet eyes flashed black for a few seconds, Ki pulled and dragged from every corner of the ship, his maw struggling to stay close as whips of green flashed and striked around, electricity crackling around his body as he became hunched over, fingers digging into palm to alleviate the stress it put on the body as small whipping tendrils coiled out, striking at the air and wrapping around his fingers with a vice like grip. The tiles began to shake, small fragments pulled up before cocking his head back, a violent shaking of his entire body as he reached the Zenith of his power.
Then a wave came, it burst forth like a hurricane, spiralling through the air before straightening out and flying towards Xylo with all the vigour and determination he could muster. "Nuclear... BAZOOKA!" He roared as from his mouth a simple Energy Wave rolled fourth, nothing special about it other than its obscene amount of power Dantalion had managed to stock into the single exhausting shoot. If Xylo dodged they might have a problem, mainly Dantalion since he would be the one left to repair the hole. But considering this was Xylo, he was sure the Lord would be able to take the shooting head on with nary a scratch blemishing his skin.

KP: 3/3 Ais nodded along as Xylo spoke. He figured that Xylo wasn't out to kill all the Saiyans like he was. They were more against the empire than the people. At least, that was what he gathered from his weeks here before it was confirmed by Xylo himself just now. "Their empire is just as good. If anything, it will be delicious to watch them as they witness all that they and their ancestors have built crumble to the ground. A perfect revenge, I think, and an end for that empire that I would gladly help to facilitate." The more Ais thought about it, the more he grew to like that idea more. What was it the Earthlings called something like that? Poetic justice? Yes, that was it. Poetic justice. The Arcosian's blue lips curled into a smile as he fantasized about that fateful day. That day when they would stand atop the capitol's highest tower and look down on the whole city burning; the Empire the Saiyans worked so hard to build after recovering from genocide; all gone. It was enough to warm his icy heart. Ais was so enraptured in his fantasy that he hardly noticed the change in scenery. He felt the gravity first. All of a sudden, he felt every cell in his body drag towards the ground. It took all the strength he had to remain standing. A vein popped out on his forehead and the Arcosian began to sweat. This was... a lot harder than he thought. He looked over at Cello. A bead of sweat formed on his brow, but he remained standing. It had been a long time since he had done gravity training. His body needed some time to readjust. Cello unfolded his arms from his chest and lowered his center of gracityone arm out with his palm facing towards Xylo and his other arm closer to his chest in a fist. Cello's stance appeared very disciplined. The trademark of a warrior caste Namekian. Cello was nervous to take on this opponent. He would be an impossible challenge even if he had full use of all of his limbs. But that would make for good training. He hoped Ais would learn a little something about underestimating one's opponent. He felt that he wasn't taking Xylo nearly as seriously as he should. Perhaps if he could sense energy or if he had a scouter, that might help. Cello would have to teach him. Then it began. Dantalion let loose a powerful attack. Cello decided to capitalize on this opportunity and leap up into the air, throwing down ki blast after ki blast. Ais, seeing that the battle had begun, decided to throw the most powerful attack he had at Xylo. Not moving from his spot, the Arcosian pointed his index finger out, firing the most powerful move in his arsenal; the Execution Shot. He was proud to use his father's signature move in battle, against Xylo of all people. [[MP3] Execution Shot used! (100% of PL) = 15 060 PL New KP: 0/3] Dantalion Lord Xylo |

The Mazoku Lord tensed up as his foes began powering up. It seemed they were convinced that an all-out attack from the start would work well for them. Against a weaker foe, they might have made some headway, but wasting all of their Ki so recklessly had only sealed the deal. With a mighty shout, Xylo stretched his arms out to the sides. His Ki rushed through his body, and after a moment, a large dome of crimson Ki extended outwards, covering Xylo in a shield strong enough to defend against a missile strike. The Ki Attacks rained down, smashing into Xylo's barrier with immense force. They pushed against the barrier with as much might as they could muster, hissing and whining as their energies slowly depleted. Eventually, the blasts reached their limit, and exploded in a last ditch effort to break through. Clouds of smoke coated the Namekian Lord's location, shrouding his fate for a few tense moments. "You need to have patience in an uphill battle, boys! Wasting your energy will provide a quick death!"Xylo's voice rang out from above the smoke, accompanied by a pair of Namekian arms stretching an incredible distance! Ais was slapped at by a right arm, while Dantallion was grabbed at by a left. Should Dantallion be caught by this arm, he'd suddenly find himself flung through the air towards Cello! He'd need to regain his senses quickly, or else he'd collide with the Namekian in a most painful way! Regardless of the attacks success, Xylo would retract his limbs soon after. He didn't need to put himself in any unnecessary danger, now did he?

Dantalion sighed, a hand placed on the back of his skull as a rather irritating scratch was let out. "Well. I didn't expect that to work." He turned to Ais, shrugging it off before feeling a tendril wrap around. "Son of..." He cried as he was pulled into the air, trying to struggle out but with Emperor's Might activated was there really a chance in hell. His body flung through the air, his senses quickly snapping back as he landed a few inches from Cello, his claws tearing through the simulated dirt beneath him as he braced himself, hunched over before darting back into the fray.
"Don't think I don't have tricks up my sleeve damn it!" He yelled he had heard rumours of a little-known weakness. Mainly ones he had seen be utilised when he was hoping to add emphasis to his actions. Most wouldn't think it possible, without a tongue or lips, but that was but a figment. There was something there, he could taste, he could purse yet he couldn't see it. Then it came, the sharp whizz through the air, he was hoping that he could at the very least drop the mighty Lord Xylo's shield and give him, Cello and Ais a chance to get a solid hit in.
If it worked, he would dart forward, arm extended as he gripped at the mighty Lord's leg, pulling him through the air and crashing him back and forth through the ground, before tossing him through the air and firing some basic Ki rounds into his chest. However, if it failed he would simply fire some basic Ki Pot shots at the shield. It would have to give eventually, if not this was less a training montage and more a lesson in pain.

Ais, perhaps through naivete or sheer arrogance, half expected their onslaught to work. The activation of the barrier stunned him however. He hadn't experienced that before. He poured as much energy as he could into his attack in an attempt to break through the barrier and when the explosion occurred, the Arcosian lord thought that at the very least, they gave him something comparable to an injury. A scrape, maybe a cut? "Lord Ais, keep your guard up!" Cello's warning came too late. Xylo's arms stretched out, one of the hands on the end grabbing Dantalion and the other coming right at the Arcosian to pay him back for wasting his energy in such a dumb fashion. The open-handed slap caught Ais right on the face, sending him flying across the field of red and crashing into a rock formation and blasting right through it. The Arcosian laid there amongst the rubble for a moment. That slap really messed him up. 'Oh... oh wow... I don't know if I can get up.' The weight of the gravity coupled with the dizziness made standing up an impossible challenge. Cello moved to try and dodge Dantalion as he saw the demon flying towards him, but it seemed it was unneeded. Cello's ally dug his claws into the floor, tearing up the tiles to avoid slamming into him. Cello looked towards where the attack sent Ais. He hadn't gotten up yet. The Namekian flew over to his lord, looking down at him with his arms crossed. Ais looked up at Cello, a dazed smile on his face. "Hey, Cello." He said, half-conscious. "Look at you, my lord." Cello sighed and helped the Arcosian up. "Do you need a moment?""No. Nonononononono..." Ais slapped himself on each cheek and shook his head. "No. I'm quite alright, Cello." It seemed he recovered from that blow. "Good. We can't afford to underestimate that man. This is only training, but getting hit by a power like that can hurt, don't you agree?" Cello brushed the dust off of Ais's shoulder. "Don't push it." The Arcosian hissed, trying to march towards the battle. Moving wasn't impossible now. His body had started to acclimate to the gravity and he could now take actual steps. "I'm going to hit him from a range until I can move effectively. I'm starting to feel relief from the pressure, but I need some more time. You work together with Dantalion. I trust you'll know what to do.""Yes, my lord." With that, Cello flew off to assist their demon friend. Should Xylo's shield not be taken down, Cello would join Dantalion in firing a constant stream of ki blasts to keep the pressure on. This barrier HAD to have a limit. They'd find it, Cello was sure. But they would have to be cautious. He didn't want to get hit by a slap like Ais did. If it managed to hurt him like that, Cello shuddered to think what it would do to him. While they fired their blasts, he turned and spoke to Dantalion. "Lord Ais is okay. He's on his way back. The gravity is proving a challenge for him." This was a good thing in Cello's mind, however. Ais had never been truly challenged before. Now was the time. He had to learn if he was ever going to grow up into a good king. If getting their land back was even possible. Cello had his doubts. But growing up could only be good for the Arcosian.

Xylo smirked to himself as his attacks connected. It wasn't a complete knockout, which was good, but it at least knocked some sense into them. They'd need to play smart to win, and by the looks of Dantallion's next attempted strike, that was exactly what they were trying to do. The hulking demon let out a painful screeching sound, trying to hinder Xylo with his natural aversion to loud sounds. If Dantallion had tried this months ago, he would have gotten somewhere, but Xylo had trained his ears to be a little more resistant to sounds that were high in frequency. Despite what little the sound did, Xylo decided to play along. He let out a painful groan, falling to his knees and letting the dome of Ki around him vanish into nothing. He shut his eyes tightly, letting out a blood-curdling scream of pain. If Xylo wasn't a warlord, he'd make a great actor. Dantallion saw this false chance and took the bait. He dashed forwards, attempting to grab Xylo's leg and swing him about like a doll. Sadly, however, Xylo was ready. He broke out of his fake pain, and responded to the mighty Demons attempt by giving him a quick elbow jab. Should Dantallion be hit, he'd probably be dizzied, leaving him open for a second strike. "A good strategy! Make sure you don't use it around our own army; that kind of thing will cost us quite a bit."With a swift motion, Xylo spun around, aiming to roundhouse kick Dantallion in the chest and send him flying straight at Cello!

It... It worked? Hot diggity Damn it worked! He thought to himself as he pounced on his opportunity, "Quick, he's down kick his ass!" He spoke rapidly as he went in for his strike, giddy with joy as he hoped Ais and Cello had followed him into the fray. His arm extended, his fingers coiled around Xylo's leg, thankfully for his reach and height, it was a piece of cake. Until he was jabbed in the guy by an elbow jab, his body hunched, pain writhing in him as skin broke on contact, the feeling of small black tentacles striking and slashing around the open wound.
"Shit! No, don't kick his ass abort mission, ABORT MISSION!" He screamed as a flash of pain ran rampant through his skull, a long crack streaking up the length of his side as he was flung over to Cello, a foot tapping on the ground as he tossed in a different direction. He couldn't stop the speed or the momentum of the kick, instead shifting it over to a wall and crashing with a mighty thud, simulated dirt and debris rolling on him as a small crater formed around him.
He contemplated in the dirt for a few seconds, slowly pulling himself up as dust and debris rolled off his skin, marring spots a dusty dull brown. "Right... Plan Alpha B-28." He groaned as he dragged himself from the rubble, looking between Cello and Ais before realising the critical flaw of that one plan. "Shit... I forgot Namekians don't have dicks." He heaved a heavy groan, calculating what they could do next. "Any of you guys know how to lock in a Full Nelson?" He himself knew and considering he could regenerate from a wound this might be their best bet. Especially since Dantalion couldn't use his Demonic Custom again.

Cello's eyes widened as he saw Dantalion's hulking form coming right at him once again. He let out a surprised shout, but thankfully he was spared that pain by Dantalion shifting the weight of the blow to send him flying into a wall instead of the Namekian. Cello was grateful for that. Crashing into him probably would have hurt less for the demon. Cello got back in his battle stance, but he was sweating profusely. They stood no chance. Their best bet was to just try and get the most out of their training as possible. A little while passed and Ais finally made his way to the others. He stood a fair distance away from Xylo, examining the Mazoku lord for any openings. When asked if he could pull of a full nelson, Ais looked at his comrade and raised the bony plating that one might call his "eyebrow." "He is much bigger than I am, so I think that's going to be a no from me." Ais raised his guard. They were at a disadvantage here, even with their greater numbers. Ais especially. He was now able to move at a normal pace, but his speed was greatly reduced. Gravity training was a lot tougher than he thought. Cello and Ais floated over to Dantalion and gave him his idea for a plan. He spoke in a hushed tone, though he didn't know if Xylo would still be able to hear. Their people possessed remarkable hearing after all. "I can try. Lord Ais, if you and Dantalion can draw his ire and get him to maybe focus on you for a moment, I can move behind and grab him at the first opportunity. Once that happens, you both can hit him with everything you have. Your most powerful attack. Nothing held back. Don't worry about injuring me. If I need to, I can regenerate." Ais looked over at Cello with an annoyed look. "Cello, that is quite possibly your dumbest idea ever." Ais crossed his arms. "Dantalion and I could vaporize you by accident. Do you honestly think you can endure one our combined power?""I can try, Lord Ais. If you two are careful, you shouldn't cause any damage to me that can't be fixed by regeneration." He looked around at the two. "Unless you two have a better idea."[Ais KP: 2/3] Dantalion Lord Xylo |

Xylo clicked his tongue in disappointment. Dantallion was better at keeping control of his airborne direction than he'd expected. Cello had been avoided twice already! If it happened a third time, someone would be owed a chocolate parfait. The hulking demon smashed into a nearby boulder, causing it to crack from the impact and drop small chunks of debris into the dirt. Perhaps it was a good thing they'd started at a low gravity level; any higher and those simple bits of falling rock would have felt like being hit by a rockslide. The Mazoku Lord waited patiently as the trio recuperated, cracking his knuckles in anticipation while his foes hatched a plan. He caught parts of their conversation thanks to his heightened hearing; something about a full nelson piquing his interest the most. The idea reminded him of an old tale his father regaled him with ages ago. It was about one of the most revered Mazoku working alongside a Saiyan to great effect, though it was obvious by how over the top and drawn out the story was that the original tale had been altered greatly by time. As they continued to gab amongst themselves, Xylo brought his hand up in front of him, an aura of orange magic coating his palm. A few seconds later, a cloud of smoke poofed in his hand, and when it dissipated, a brand new broadsword had suddenly appeared! The metal of the blade shined brightly in the simulated sun's light as Xylo gripped the handle tightly, swinging it back and forth to test its weight. "Dantallion! You know how to materialize objects, don't you? I want to test your skills with a blade; maybe you'll fare better in combat when you've got something to swing with."It was simple magic that went into materializing objects, though not many people had the patience to learn it. Should the hulking demon be unfamiliar, Xylo would be more than willing to teach it. Dantallion was technically one of his students, after all. He bore the shroud of the Mazoku Caste prouder than most recruits ever would.

He turned between them, they were actually taking his idea rather seriously. Which was good, if it wasn't so rhetorical. "Okay. Cello. Loving the enthusiasm. But if this takes you out in one swing, you ain't gonna get much out of training. Plus." He looked around the room, he didn't know what would happen to regenerate limbs in this sort of gravity, it might make them the way a tonne more, or become too flimsy to use outside. "Since I am..." He gave Xylo a passing glance, Garnet eyes squinted trying to tell if while he rubbed his hands together he was eve dropping in on their conversation, with little along the line of results other than, he was looking at them.
He turned back, looking between them, "Probably the strongest one here, I will perform the full Nelson. I can't use my Demonic powers for a while now and without my sword, I am dropped down to a few Basic Ki strikes." He responded, it was a little embarrassing, but he had been spending his time learning the more basics of combat, such as how to dodge and other basic techniques. He turned around, giving a short nod as he took a single step forward before noticing the Blade materialise in his hands. It was a good thing he was charging, Ais couldn't regenerate and Cello would be far too slow to get a chance to lock it in. Though he doubted when compared to Xylo, he was going to be much faster.
He took a short sprint, preparing to dash himself towards him before stopping midway by an odd inquiry. He paused for a second, "Uhh... Not really." He didn't know why he would think such, if he could he wouldn't be so obsessed with cutting down Namek's forests for all his paper. "I mean... Hold on let me grab my sword real quick." He paused for a second, the garnet lights of his eyes slowly turning to tiny embers in his eyes as he concentrated. Xylo couldn't see it form, but Ais and Cello could. He focused on his blade, the shifting of bone on the ground as it slowly shrunk in size, rematerializing inside of his body inch by inch. A single Namekian Onlooker watched as some blade that dripped with Demonic Energy began to shrink and change, before finally turning to nothing.
From his back sprouted a single tiny thorn, a mere infant in size when compared to the other before he reached around, three digits coiling around the tiny spike as inch by inch he dragged it up, his skin shifting and moulding around it as tears formed along his back, blood and Demonic Juices rolled down like a river from the open sore before sinking back into the leathery hide. His Garnet eyes flashed back to life as in a single swift motion he pulled the Cleaver from his back, a long blade just as large as him and half as wide emerged. There was no discernable end to it as if crafted from a single strike of the hammer, the Shaft and blade were one in the same. Made of Dantalion's bone.
"There we go." He stated with a relieved grin, not letting the pain warp his face as the blade fell with a hard thud, digging a few inches into the ground as Dantalion assumed his stance. The blade was set into the ground, the sharp edge pointing to Xylo while his hand braced the flat back. He began to funnel Ki, from his back a few Tendrils emerged, pulling and reaching the air as he began to charge his strike, the length of the blade filling with a green sick ooze as he took a few steps forward. He had forgotten the plan of the full Nelson, mainly because for once he got to test out his Bladesman ship with someone he assumed new the art far better than he.

Ais's attention was pulled away from the conversation when Xylo materialized his blade from thin air. 'Well, that is indeed a neat little trick.' A useful one too, he would admit. Maybe he would have to put that on his list of things to learn. Something happened then that piqued his interest; Xylo challenged Dantalion to a duel of blades. Ais remembered that giant cleaver from earlier. Would he be using that? The question was soon answered when the demon pulled the massive weapon from his back. Ais looked on, impressed by the display. Cello, however, was unnerved. He wouldn't ever get used to the sight. Seeing as how the plan involving the full nelson was forgotten, Cello stood up straight and put his hand on the red leather handle of the giant white blade on his back, pulling it out of the sheath and holding it at the ready in a disciplined stance with both hands, the Namekian's arms bulging with the weight. Cello's sword was massive, even longer than he was tall and even wider than him. The blade was wide enough where someone could take cover behind it if they needed to. He stood next to Dantalion. "I hope you don't mind if I join in. I haven't gotten to use this blade in quite some time." Cello looked ahead at Xylo. He had no clue about Xylo's skill with a blade, but if it was anything like they had seen so far, it should prove to be a brisk and challenging battle. Ais looked around at the others with their swords and felt a little left out. He needed a weapon like that. Something legendary to strike fear into the hearts of his enemies when they see it. Perhaps something smaller than Cello's blade, though. Seeing as how he lacked a weapon of his own, Ais simply put his guard up again, waiting for Xylo to make his move. He was a worthy adversary, that was for sure. Though Ais had no doubt that he would be. "Cello?" Ais asked his bodyguard, sweat beginning to drip down his forehead as he looked at Xylo's blade. "Do we have any chance of winning?""Truthfully? None, Lord Ais. But it isn't always about winning. Try and learn something from this. You have a rare opportunity to face an opponent far beyond your own capabilities. Often, we learn things about ourselves in the most hopeless of situations." Cello continued to look ahead, sword held at the ready. Its size was deceiving; Cello was quite fast with it. [Ais KP: 3/3]

Xylo watched with morbid curiosity as Dantallion unsheathed his bone blade. It was a strange way of summoning a weapon, but it was better than none, he supposed. On the plus side, it made for a very intimidating display. A more squeamish opponent might falter at the mere sight. "I suppose the answer to my question is no, then. We'll need to take some time out to teach you that skill; it's useful, and probably much less painful when it comes to summoning weapons."Dantallion began charging his Ki, funneling it into his blade. The demons technique was well-practiced. It seemed blade work was more his strong suit. For a moment, Xylo's eyes shift to the left, watching Cello unsheathe his own massive blade. Xylo chuckled; he didn't even realize the boy had a weapon. Perhaps he should pay more attention in the future. Xylo smirked, pointing his blade at Cello as he spoke. "I'll start with you, then, youngling." With a burst of Ki, Xylo sped past Dantallion, bringing his blade up high as he approached the younger Namekian. With a mighty swing, he'd bring his sword down on Cello, aiming to slice into the boy and cause some serious pain. Cello's best bet would be to block with his own weapon, but the force of Xylo's swing could very well break his foe's weapon on impact!

"I mean... I use to have to draw if from my mouth." This was a far nicer method, his jaw having to elongate and snap to allow his blade to be drawn was always a nuisance back in the Demon Realm, but learning a way that was in no way painful. It simply seemed like it existed in the realm of make-believe with how long he had gone through pain to draw his blade. "But hell, I won't say no." He was hoping the banter could keep Xylo distracted as he continued to charge.
His blade was drawn, passed Dantalion's shoulder. He looked with curiosity, had Ais held a hidden blade of some sort? No, it was Cello, a rather odd sight as he saw the drawn blade quite larger than his figure. "Oh, Cello since when did you-" His words were cut off in a second, distracted Xylo slip pass, though he doubted he could have stopped him if he so chose to move through. His eyes widened as he caught the faintest of a glimpse, a bead of Demonic Energy rolling down his brow as his jaw slung down, "Ais! Quickly assist Cello!" He stated, there was no point in trying to intercept, all he could do is watch on and leave it to Cello and Ais. Just a few more Seconds. Just a few more. He thought to himself, he wanted to turn off, not watch the inevitable play out but doing so would simply leave forfeit his opportunity to strike. Who knows how quickly Xylo could dispatch of the duo.
His blade piled and struck with green, tinges of electricity rolling over his skin as he pressed it a little deeper, half the blade encased in green as not even a sliver underneath could be perceived. The dirt and rubble around him started to rise with the air, the strands of electricity knocking them from the air and to the ground before rising back up in the pendulous cycle.
