Xander fights thebother human, growing to get back into the fight. He can't... He won't let Candlemon down, it had happened to often to him to count and he knew he just couldn't do it. No matter what, even if he got hurt, even if he died, he wouldn't abandon his friend... Never! This Candlemon might be new, they might have only known each other for a few hours, but he need a this... He needs friends.
Candlemon knows that it's best for Xander to step back, but he understands his pain. He knows how Xander will never abandon him, and how he would always keep along side him. They had an unspoken understanding, Candlemon knew he couldn't stop Xander if he tried so instead he just focused on getting rid of this damn Apemon."Bonfire, bonfire, bonefire!" He screened as more fireballs were thrown from his mouth. He keeps throwing wax at the Apemon's eyes, fighting as much as possible as Xander still struggles to help his friend.
Xander knows that these sent people, these are stronger then people. He knows that this Apemon can take his hits, that he doesn't have to pull his punches. He struggles with Dorian, watching Candlemon and Impmon shoot fire at the creature as Ebony still tryst to fight on Apemon's other side.
