[James might as well not even be there, for as much good as his actions do. He can pull on Dante's arms as much as he likes, but they won't move until the darkness holding Dante releases him--in fact, a dark crackle of energy seems to shoot off of him, a little bit like the shock from static electricity as it hits James.]
Still you fight! Then let me show you--the true power of darkness!
[Dante yells out as there's a sudden flare of energy around them, a pulse of darkness that's all-encompassing, driving the entire hall into blackness. It lasts one, two, three heartbeats, and then it's gone again, leaving them in a place that's familiar to Dante, but likely won't be at all to James. James will find himself at one side of the platform, and on the other, standing normally once more, is Dante.
But if James gets close to Dante, he'll see that the boy's eyes are now a bright amber-gold.]
