He nodded, walking over towards Puppetmon without a change in his stoic expression. " I am Josh, one of the newest 'recruits' to this army. I wish to know if you have a MechaArmormon among your reserves." Out of loyalty to his partner and caution, Vyle walked up beside Josh, just in case Puppetmon decided to spontaneously attack for some reason - he wouldn't be surprised if he did, considering Puppetmon's expression and the way he held that hammer.

@puppetmon@
Chuckling, Puppetmon stood up, slowly approaching Josh. "...a human... most curious." he hummed, stopping right in front of Josh. "...the only other human we've had in this area is young Lady Kotone..." Then, he slowly put the blunt edge of the scythe blade against Josh's neck. "...I've never seen humans bleed out before... perhaps I'll have the chance soon?" he chuckled darkly.
@ghoulmon@
"...just behave, will you?"
@puppetmon@
"...of course, my liege." Puppetmon chuckled, moving the hammer away from Josh. "As for this 'MechaArmormon'... this is the first I've heard of it. Are you referring to a Mekanorimon, perhaps?" Then, placing a hand on Josh's shoulder, he began leading him further into the room. "Let me show you what I've been working on..."
From Vyle's point of view, he'd see that the gloves on Puppetmon's hands were torn, and the wooden hands underneath were thin, and seemed withered; making it seem like a skeletal hand was holding onto Josh's shoulder.

He was completely unfazed by having the weapon against his neck. " Mekanorimon is the Champion form of MechaArmormon, an Ultimate, I believe - perhaps I should draw you a diagram of it. But please, show me. I am interested." Vyle's eyes narrowed, following the two, as he motioned for the rest of Josh's team to follow.

@puppetmon@
Leading Josh's team into a different room, Puppetmon chuckled. "Behold..."
@mekanorimon@
Inside of this room, there were a horde of various Mekanorimon lined up, Shadow Energy flowing into them, like with the other machines. However, there were key differences to these.
Some of them had their hands removed, replaced with various appendages, such as scythe blades, drills, gatling guns, cannons, and much more. Some of them even had what seemed like traces of differently colored variants of Chrome Digizoid patched onto them.
@puppetmon@
Puppetmon kept chuckling. "It's amazing what you can do, when you figure out how to dismember Digimon without killing them..." he mused, his grip on the hammer tightening again, along with his grip on Josh.

He looked on, intruiged by the developments here, but he found it a tad lacking for him personally. " For regular troops, they are certainly impressive. But none of them are suitable for me to pilot. I need something more powerful. Hmm... Is there any way to get them to digivolve? Fusion, additional energy, that sort of thing?" Then he rubbed his chin, firing away more questions. " Actually... While we're on that subject, I do have one idea. Is it possible for a mech to draw on the user's energy to increase its power? I do have a specific design in mind... Do you have something I could draw on? And something I could draw with, for that matter?" @tarantres@ "<Whoa, is he thinking what I THINK he's thinking?>" "<Maybe~!>"

"...I do believe I have some paper lying about..." Puppetmon chuckled, slowly glancing at Josh. "...as for something to draw with..." Again, his grip on Josh tightened further. "...how about something red?"

For the first time since he put on the mask, he actually smirked. " Bloodthirsty, aren't you? But I'm afraid I can't do that. Blood is too limited a resource to waste. How about something more plentiful, such as oil? As far as machine Digimon are concerned, it is like blood, except black, no?"

@puppetmon@
"...but there is a certain... satisfaction to using blood over oil." Puppetmon chuckled, his smirk growing larger. "Machines do not feel that exquisite feeling you humans recognize as... pain. It is a delectable treat to hear the pained wails of a dying creature, no matter what it might be... wouldn't you agree?"

" I have not experienced that visceral feeling, I admit, though perhaps a couple of my subordinates might have. But as tempting as it might be to satisfy your curiosity, I kind of need my blood to live. Perhaps another time, when there's some blood to spare, hmm?"

@puppetmon@
"...perhaps." Puppetmon chuckled, though his smirk just seemed to grow bigger. "...how I wait for the time, when he, too, will have blood to shed..."
With that, he suddenly swung the blunt end of his hammer against a shelf, which tossed a pen and some paper into the air, falling down by Josh. "Use it well."

" Gladly." Josh took up the pen and paper, and began to sketch up something that was vivid in his memories, which had been long scrambled by time travel... It turned out to be quite detailed. " Sleek... Efficient... Powerful. That is what I seek. It's from an anime I once watched. It's called 'Lazengann'." "Oh, that mech gives me shivers just from looking at it~!" "<So this is the sort of thing you had in mind...>"

@puppetmon@
"...hm." Puppetmon hummed, rubbing his chin. "...these Mekanorimon are designed so that if they are not piloted, the Shadow Energy will autonomously direct them to victory..." Then, he folded his arms, looking at Josh. "...how would this design of yours affect the Mekanorimon?"

He chuckled. " Though I suppose it is supposed to be a more 'personal' design... Mekanorimon are strong foot-soldiers, but they are ultimately worthless against our stronger enemies. Recently, a mere handful of tamers/trainers completely obliterated an army of them on Tamers-Earth with little effort. I'm simply suggesting a more powerful, less bulky, all-purpose design. Attacking, defense, stealth, you name it, this mech can do all that, and more... Designed completely around the use of Shadow Energy to use that power to its maximum potential." He looked at Puppetmon, with a grin. " Imagine, dozens of black drills from a single one of these, tearing through flesh and steel."

Chuckling, Puppetmon waggled one of his sickly-thin fingers at Josh. "It is a clever and exquisite idea... but you could say that I have the prototype ready. Even Lord Machinedramon the Infinite has no knowledge of this."
Then, he pointed his hammer at the Mekanorimon. "Would you allow me to explain the concept of my invention, 'Overdrive Mode'?"

Josh grinned, liking the sound of that. " Please, by all means."

@puppetmon@
"...as I said, the Shadow Energy not only enhances the abilities of the Mekanorimon, but it allows for the machines to move independently if no one is there to pilot them... but that was only what Machinedramon had envisioned. I figured out something a bit more... delicate."
Grinning, Puppetmon rubbed the blunt edge of the scythe blade. "Be it on command or when the systems are critical, Overdrive Mode will kick in, and send Shadow Energy surging throughout the entire machine... too quickly. It will eventually consume the machine in Shadow; however, as it knows neither pain nor death, it will continue fighting; its power, defense and speed rapidly increasing every single second of the way... and that was only how I saw it on the drawing board."

" Oh? Are you implying that you've discovered additional effects through testing?"

@puppetmon@
"Did I ever." Puppetmon chuckled. "The first test subject was an unmanned Mekanorimon... and it completely blew my expectations out of the proverbial water. Not only did its power, defense and speed increase as I originally surmised... but it caused deformations and mutations to the mechanized body. Imagine a normal Mekanorimon, if you will... now, imagine its arms expanding and stretching to monstrous lengths, its talons thickening and sharpening, tearing and shredding through all its helpless victims. Not a soul left standing, not a life left to tell the tale! Truly, I've created a monster! And it is certainly a creation most exquisite!" Then, he suddenly broke into a hoarse, shrill, almost demonic laughter.

His smile widened into a grin. Oh, would this be so suitable for what he had in mind... " Alright, then... How about we make a deal? Create me a mecha suitable of a commanding officer, something that will strike fear into the hearts of our enemies, a mech designed to use Overdrive Mode to its maximum potential... Create me Lazengann..." He placed his finger down on the sketches. " And perhaps, I'll see what I can do about capturing a human for you to get your hands on." "<Oh, that's cold, indeed...>"

@puppetmon@
"...I have a better idea in mind." Puppetmon chuckled, suddenly moving up-close to look directly into Josh's eyes. "The downside with Overdrive Mode at the moment is that any pilot within the machine will be subjected to be drowned in Shadow; a process most painful... so I'll create this suit, if you supply enough humans for me to do some tests, so I can work out that little "system error". Does that sound fair?"
