Lobster caught Bridget as the creature climbed on to his head.

“Calm down, calm down” Lobster said gently “This is just one of those strays”

Spanner and Santiago spun around, the latter of the two pointing a magnum at the noise.

Drarsuus raised his axe high into the air and swung downward unto Spetz but was was blocked by the feeble light blue Rapier energy sword.
The brutes acted in astonishement as Spetz blocked the attack
“You have much strength Spartan, you are stronger than you look!” Drarsuus said pushing Spetz down unto one knee blocking the might of the axe.
“STRENGTH IS NOT ENOUGH THOUGH!” Drarsuus said laughing as he uppercutted Spetz with the other side of the double side axe staff and roundhouse kicked him far away.
The brutes cheered crazily in reply as Drarsuus turned around to boast
Spetz slowly got up noticing the huge amount of blood dripping from the visor of his helmet that had been cut into
“How bad…” Spetz asked Alice grinding his teeth in pain
“Actually it isn’t THAT bad” Alice said trying not to freak him out
“Often cuts on the head bleed a lot due to the amount of blood in surrounding your brain! Just…don’t let it happen again?” Alice kept going on
“Oh you wanna fight him instead?” Spetz replied coldly
“Now now is that really the last words you might say to me?” Alice replied
Spetz sighed as he got up and pointed his sword at Drarsuus

Sky and the others entered through the gates as the Mammoth began to shake uncontrollably. Delovo screamed in pure rage, before the entire Mammoth detonated with the force of a small nuke.

“We made it.” Sky said.

“Brute forces are in full retreat for now…” A marine said.

“Keep everyone on high alert.” Sky said.

“Ma’am, we have a Condor.” An officer reported. “It’s being prepared to become a gunship as we speak.” He said.

“Wait… We need the shield schematics to bring back to the LR. Belay that order!” Sky shouted.

“No… You won’t just walk into my city, leave the civilians unattended, and expect to mooch off with the only reason this city is standing.” He spat.

“Look around. This entire city is gone… We need to preserve its legacy with these schematics.” Sky said.

Bridget blushed as Lobster caught her. “U-uh… Okay…”

“No. We don’t serve the LR. We are the people of Fiirgard.” He said.

“Back off you f*ck.” Sky said, raising her shotgun to meet his flimsy magnum.

“The city will fall, and if we go retrieve the schematics, we can prevent these brutes from acquiring them. Preventing them from having such impressive shields at this scale”
