Hearing the transmission Lucus replies back "One full out assault? Sure I have only a few minutes of power left so lets all do this!", his tone oddly confident and enthusiastic despite the situation and damage to his Armor.

"Agaris switch the on board generator to the blades. We launch in, strike and launch out. Increase power to the airborne launch systems." He commanded over the VAR connection.

"Understood, please remember using the airborne thrusters will use significant power, we will only get two shots at this." Agaris states informatively.

"Then we do this in one, like in the simulations. Just keep a lock on the others so we attack at once."

The gun of the Frame being put away and the duel arc blades being extended, electric jolts dancing between the points. The whole Armor beginning to circle the foe at a opposite angle to another Armor.

Sergey looked again through the battlefield, as of now Höchste Einmal fielded 2 Armors, Agaris and the Chariot of Fire both having sustained at most minimal damages. CACHE on the other hand fielded 7 Armors, the Destiny Driver, Lunar Symphony, Solaris, Enigma, Blitzkrieg, Falchion and Ultimo, though both the Destiny Driver and Falchion were not able to continue combat, Ultimo was out of the combat zone and additionally Blitzkrieg had taken severe damages back in the fight against the 7th Seraph, leaving them with 4 combat capable Armors currently in the field.
While CACHE at the moment had a clear advantage in numbers Sergey knew that this could quickly turn. He knew Höchste Einmal, he was pretty sure they also noticed that they were outnumbered so it was likely that they would send in support. But then again the same was true for CACHE, also if things were to go the wrong way he could order Mistral back, this would come at the cost of leaving the Destiny Driver unprotected which he didn't wanted to risk for now.
If he could overwhelm one of the enemies with his and Enigma's drones this would greatly turn the odds in their favor, the thought of betraying someone who fought alongside him bothered him, though he knew that in the end the pilots from Höchste Einmal were his enemies, so he had to fight them at one point.

He looked to Mireille 'I want you to ready a ECM shot from Enigma, aim at one of the Einmal Armors, if they start attacking us or try to finish the Eldrichian off I want you to place that shot right between his eyes, that should disable him. Than we can overwhelm the other and try to capture the Eldrichian.' Mireille nodded in response 'As you wish, Sir. Though I should note that I'm still not functioning at 100% combat efficiency, controlling 8 drones and Enigma at the same time drains my CPU processing power even under normal circumstances, in this state I can't promise to land the shot reliably.'

As the stubs of Tentacle Driller's 'arms' come off, the tentacles around its eye frail out in silent replication of pained yelling. Though even with no vocalization it is clear: The Eldritchian doesn't want to give up. Devoid of its 'arms' however, the Eldritchian lifts into the air readying to drill underground with its 'legs'. To that, however, a fiery lasso catches and slams the Eldritchian into the ground. The Eldritchian futilely trying to escape, Faith calls out to everyone.

"Kind of wish they could all be this easy, but congratulations on helping stop an alien monster. However, I'm afraid the Einmal bodies are going to need to leave. First Eldritchian of the year so, ya know." To Seth and Lucus, as Ashley's Wunderwaffen comes into view she calmly addresses them.

"Unfortunately, if we try to press the issue things would become worst for Einmal overall. So please withdraw both of you."

Sorry the update wasn't finished in one go, but the electricity will be temporarily turning off soon so... Yeah. Though admittedly, the four segments aren't required for you to post. I do feel disappointed the Boss updates were so small however, so I'll be working on that.

Sergey took a deep breath before bringing Blitzkrieg's pistols down, he was relieved that the Einmal Armors didn't make any signs of wanting to push on. 'Phew Mireille, we seem to have made it, though please be so kind and continue to track them, I want to be sure.' 'As you wish, Sir, I'm returning our drones now. I also send command back to Enigma to also retrive his drones.' Sergey sighed before looking at the battlefield for a last time, a large area was still covered in the acid from the Eldrichian. He let his Armor slowly descend and as he touched the ground leaned it against a building. It was not until now as the adrenaline from the fight was leaving his body that he realised the terrible heat in the cockpit. He at once openend the cockpit hatch and heard the whizzing of fresh air flowing into the cramped cockpit. Under him the deep humming of the fusion reactor slowly died away as the Armor went into standby mode. As he watched the Eldrichian being prepared for transport he contacted Mistral 'Hey, we did it, the enemy is down.' Her voice sounded cheerful as ever as she responded 'Yay, good for us, I'm coming.' After the com channel was closed Mireille looked up at Sergey 'Sir, I'll move Enigma to us.' Shortly after that an Armor in dark grey paintjob, its head shaped like a wolves head slowly descended beside him. It wore a cloak with only its left arm and head not hidden beneath it. The Armor placed itself close to Blitzkrieg before going into standby mode as well. Sergey climbed out of the cockpit to watch Enigma and to get a bit of fresh air, though he allowed himself only a few seconds of relaxation before he climbed back into the small cockpit and contacted Faith. 'This was a though fight, do you need help transporting the Eldrichian back to base? My Armor has taken severe damage in a fight with the 7th Seraph but it still can move. If you need help say it.'

Already guessing the answer Sergey closed the com-channel and looked to Mireille 'Could you please give me a damage report?' Mireille nodded, her eyes turned dull again as she analysed the damages on the Armor. After a short time she looked up again 'As you already know both our primary and secondary coolant-circuits have been destroyed. Additionally some of my data stoage modules aswell as 3 of my 16 CPU-cores have been destroyed, namely the cores 1, 7 and 11. Also due to the enormous load on them nearly all thrusters have been damaged, vernier thrusters 1 to 3 on the left leg and the main thrusters on the back are in particular bad shape. Also nearly 60% of the armor and the artificial muscle tissue on the left elbow have been destroyed by the acid. Lastly one of the stray shots severly dama-' suddenly the Armor shook under a small explosion before leaning to the right 'I correct myself destroyed our right knee.' Sergey sighed 'This looks worse than I thought... we're no longer combat-capable, additionally we - I screwed up in my mission... well thats a good start to get back into this. Lets just head back to base. Set Enigma to follow me.' With that he brought the Armor back up. Besides him Enigma also got up again. Cautiously Sergey reactivated his thrusters to bring him back into the air without overloading them. A few seconds later Mistral showed up, she carried the powered down Destiny Driver with her Nightmare-chains.

Well, that made things easier.

"Off to HQ it is," said Seth, saluting to Ashley. Then, he turned to the girl. "Come on. Let's get you out of here."

When Seth finally got to Einmal's HQ, he had to stop, clutch the front of his jeans, and breathe heavily for a moment. Running in place while still getting the mech to actually run was a surprisingly difficult task, especially for such an extended period of time. When he looked up, two security Armors were waiting for him.

"Hey M.O.L.L.Y., mind opening a commlink with those two?" Two more icons appeared on his HUD near the link to Ashley. He nodded his thanks. "Seth Stiles, Chariot of Fire speaking. I was sent here by Ashley...uh...okay, I didn't get her last name, but she's this blonde woman who works for you guys, and, like, she was evaluating my abilities and stuff, and we found this girl that a cult of Eldritch worshippers were holding hostage. The girl's been Fey Touched, like, all over, and her body's reacting badly to it. We need to get her inside for medical evaluations, stat." He looked back at her, not moving his head too much, as though he wanted her to say something.
