Leos and Cross vs -EX-
(The blasts knock the Mk-II away and score some noticeable burn-marks on its armour. But -EX- retaliates by opening up his Gundam's mouthplate...
◊ and letting loose a blast of mega-particle energy. Ooooooooof.)
Cross!
Team Dark vs Team Elma and Annas
(Nono drops the shield as soon as she sees Anna dancing around the DRAGOONs and proceeds to whack her out of the way...)
(Which gives Elma enough room to successfully stab the Gundam X's backpack, disabling its Satellite Cannon from firing again.)
(And then Nono retaliates with a full salvo
◊ from her DRAGOONs at L and Alexa's Skells.)
He was an A.I. I used to work with before I met Leos...
(Upon hearing the news of the BLADE squad showing up, she sighs) Oh, thank goodness!
But why would he clone me? And why would he do this?
"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."Leos and Cross VS. -EX- (Aichi)
<Cross!>
-OK, yeah, if there was ever a time what Aichi and Leos were saying were in sync, it'd be then.-
-He's worried about Cross... He has no idea what's going to happen involving him! All he knows is that Leos wins!-
-...No! No! Stay strong, Aichi!-
-Cross will get out of this fine! And so will everyone else!-

Sthesia's Room (Aichi) and (Misaki)
-Sthesia knows this guy?!-
-And he's an A.I.?!-
"...I don't know for sure, but..."
-Misaki looks back at Aichi, who is still unresponsive to external stimuli.-
"...Aichi said that -EX- was trying to change your universe's timeline. He said that he was trying to change it so that he was in control... to save humanity."
-Or at least that was what Aichi said. Then again Aichi had been out of it when he was with them. Who knows how skewed what he remembers is?-
"...Cross...!"
-?! Did something happen to Cross, guys?!-
-And that sounded... like a middle ground between Aichi and Leos's tones? Was that both of them saying that?-
"Son of a-!"
-Omega raises an arm, a shield-like device shining before the Skell is enveloped in a barrier, most of the beam being diverted away from it-
"Deflects and disperses...beam weaponry...bitch..."
-L activates a similar barrier (though his seems more robust) and moves in front of Alexa, who waits for the bombardment to finish...before flying down to meet Nono and Sesto, her Skell's wings aflame in a manner Nono may find familiar-
"Activating Phoenix!"
-Elma retreats, laying down covering fire from her energy weapon (it isn't a beam though, it's...something different) to keep Nono and Sesto in place...and hopefully giving the Annas time to retreat before the Phoenix Wings go off-
"Sorry...! I think we...started on the wrong foot!"
Outside (Survivor Aichi)
-Aichi is doing his usual patrols... Nothing particularly out of the ordinary (If only because he's nowhere near the giant robots fighting)...-
-...?-
-A... carriage...?-
-And...-
-A-Are those zombies?!-
-Aichi is naturally forced into red-alert mode. Even if he's friends with a zombie, he still can't help but be wary upon finding one...-
-OK, stay quiet... Approach cautiously...-
-He's holding his crowbar tightly, slowly approaching and attempting to stay out of sight...-
Outside (Survivor Aichi)
-Oh.-
-S***.-
-Those are the zombies from back home!!!-
-Aichi's also a tad disturbed the undead horses, but for now he has to focus on the bigger picture.-
-Those zombies are chasing this carriage.-
-And Aichi is NOT going to stand for that.-
-Aichi ditches his slowness and instead rushes around the carriage way faster than an Aichi has any right to.-
-Adrenaline mode: active!-
-Cue him swinging at one of the zombies' heads immediately.-
-...Perhaps it's a bit barbaric-seeming, but Aichi has long since ditched grace when fighting these things.-
-The zombie gets felled as the silk shot forces the group to break up-
-The carriage is forced to swerve to avoid Aichi, coming to a stop
right next to the pack of zombies...as a boot-clad foot kicks out of the door, hitting another zombie right in the head-
"Ah great, these feral punks ain't givin' up! Poe, what's the hold-up?"
"The horses are spooked, they're not gonna listen to me!"
"Just great. Hey, kid! You okay?"

Lina looks about ready to pass out.
(shakily) Is it any indication I also startle easily?
