Erio did his best to force a rather defeated look on his face as he was suddenly dragged into the barracks by a Dark Area Tamer. Note, this was being dragged by his HAIR.
But LOOKING defeated wasn't necessarily the easiest thing for him, after everything he'd learned during his time at Section Six. However, defiance was often swiftly expected to be punished... so he did his best to play along for the moment. Elecmon, on the other hand, was being held up by the scruff of his neck by the same Tamer.
The young man gave a shout as he was unceremoniously dumped at Caro's feet. Elecmon soon followed, landing on Erio's back.
"You're lucky none of the higher ups caught you sneaking around after curfew!" the Tamer barked. "For what it's worth, I should have your head for that!"
A kick was thrown into Erio's gut, the force of which sent Elecmon flying off him, for good measure.
"You're just lucky I'm lenient!"
Erio gave a somewhat violent cough. That much, at least, wasn't acting... but again, he put up with it. He had to play along...
Caro's first thought was that Erio had been caught. She stood up, and scrambled to his side. Putting a hand on his shoulders, she looked up to yell at the soldier...
... Only for her eyes to widen as four particular objects clattered out of his robes. The Tamer's back was to the rest of the barracks, so no one would be able to see what he was doing.
"You make sure this scum is ready to work again in the morning," said the Tamer, once Caro had cautiously retrieved and hidden the devices and their D-Comms.
"I- I will be..." Erio coughed, pushing himself up a bit. He nodded to Caro, smiling slightly.
This, of course, was a lie.
By morning? He didn't plan on BEING there.
Elecmon righted himself, grumbling to himself. He was well aware of their plans, but couldn't help but still be a little irritated... He hadn't been with his Tamer for very long before all of this happened, and he'd been helpless to stop it in the first place. Even if Erio didn't seem angry at him, Elecmon was still quite angry with himself over their current predicament.
As soon as Erio had lept at Lien-da, and after Fried had been struck by Drudemon, Caro stepped in front of their fallen benefactor, and began to prepare a spell.
What Lien-da had just realized... was an even bigger help than she had initially planned.
"What I seek is that with which to admonish... with which to seize! Answer to my words, binding chains of steel!"
A magical seal appeared beneath Drudemon and Lien-da.
Lien-da screamed as the electricity from Strada conducted into her, causing her to scream out in pain... which was soon overwhelmed by something that occurred immediately after.
Her weapon turned to glowing, liquid metal in her hands... and then took the form of chains which then wrapped around and bound her. Meanwhile, chains burst from the seal beneath Drudemon, ensnaring both her and her demonic spirit.
Growmon... blinked, snapping back his spikes into their default position as he had been preparing to strike with a Plasma Blade. "...huh. Humans can... do things like that?"
He frowned a bit, though. He'd needed to be saved by one of them instead...
Erio jumped back, smiling to Caro. "Good job," he lowered Strada, looking down the path they needed to head. "...we need to make a break for it now, then. Growmon! Fried! Can you two make a path for us?!"
Growmon snapped back to attention, and nodded fiercely. "Yes! Just point me in the right direction!"
Caro looked about... and nodded, seeing a less concentrated group of enemy forces.
"Erio-kun!" she shouted, holding up her D-Comm as she pointed in the proper direction. "There! FRIED! JI SHURUNEN II!"
A single scale lit up on Fried's head, and his eyes lit up, as he let loose a powerful blast of laser breath into the enemy lines. Caro held out her arm, launching Shooting Ray alongside her dragon's attack.

"Kerykeion... is it really you?" she asked, with a hushed voice.
"I am at peak operation," said the device, flashing as it spoke.
Caro felt her eyes water, and she hugged Erio desperately. "Erio-kun!" she sobbed, lightly. "Thank you...!"

"What... what is this?!" Lien-da shrieked.
