- The Knight -
Blake landed, planting his feet firmly on the ground. Milliseconds later Nariko's punch landed, hitting Blake directly in the centre of his chest. An audible crunch was heard as the armour fully absorbed the blow. Blake cracked a smile before throwing a fist of his own; an uppercut into Nariko's jaw and another quicker punch into her ribs simulataneously.

- The Adamant Tyrant -
Although the uppercut wasn't too hard to avoid, Nariko wasn't able to do much more than throw her arms up in a block against the chest blow. It was a solid impact, driving her back a foot and flooding her arms with pain. Damn, he hit hard. "Call that a punch?" She mocked, ignoring the bruising to get her mind back on the fight. "Do the other heroes know just how weak you are?" She grinned as she dropped into a fighting stance, one hand in reach of her belt. Clearly, brute force wasn't going to work. There was another option, though... - Reaver -
Reaver twirled as she sidestepped the bullet. A muffled explosion went off behind her as she bowed. "Cooper, stop using guns against me." She offered her advice with a wink. "A single shot rifle is remarkably easy to avoid when you're as fast as I am. It's like the bullets move in slow motion!" The kukri went back in her belt and a pair of pistols came up, firing a string of shots at Cooper. They looked like normal bullets, and her opponant would have no reason to think otherwise. In reality, each one carried a tiny charge that would shock a man or damage circuitry. EMP shots, her own design, and perfect for a situation like this. - Hammerfist
Chairs are not, in fact, made of particularly tough materials, least of those that had been abandoned to the elements for many years. The ones that hit the VTOL simply crumpled on the armour of the engines. The mercs inside, however, were less heavily protected than their transport, and were required to move. One was too slow, and a spear punched right through his leg. He screamed and fell- as did Jason, for the merc hand been on guard, and now the two were pinned together by a spear passing through a leg and the boy's hand.

- Snowflake -
"That's better," her grip around the knife tightened as it slid between the mask and the Broker's cheek, close enough to give him a clean shave, "but not nearly good enough. Besides, why would she need to bring down your base of operations when you're just about to ruin it all yourself?" Another gunshot rang through the stadium, nearly impossible to distinguish from all the racket going on. The only difference was that Snowflake felt this one, it dug into her shoulder like a needle into a pin cushion, causing Snowflake to scream in pain. She yanked the knife in reflex, which in turn split the mask hiding the Brokers face in two. "****! AArgh!!" She stepped back, still pointing the gun at the Broker but more focused on the burning bullet in her back than his scarred face.

- Crimson -
He didn't hear the shot but her scream echoed through his head a thousand times. "Blizz." Crimson mouthed, his eyes widening. She was already weakened, without her healing factor a bullet wound would not be so easy to ignore. Crimson stared at the padded woman whom he had brought to a halt and pivoted to look to Snowflake. Back and forth he looked between the two before making his mind up and frustrating returning his rifle to his back. He ran to her, placing one hand on her good shoulder and the other on her lower back. Still in shock he spoke to her in a breathy tone, "Bli- Snow. Are you - ?"

- The Broker -
An opportunity.The weakened Snowflake shifted the knife to cut the mask, and The Broker make his move. He lifted his arm up and activated Claudia's device. The shield deployed, and kept him hidden from the VTOL. He started to run for the damaged truck, around the outside of the arena. Claudia saw her killer get shot, he looked, it was Luke. She couldn't help but give him a thumbs up as she approached the two figures. She held out a fist, and proceeded to pass the two as she delivered a punch to Snowflake's damaged shoulder. - Frequency -
Frequency observed the damage, the spear went through the hostage's hand. Damn, she thought to herself, before her focus turned towards one of the two original parties. She saw his face uncovered, she saw the back of his head.... The High Chancellor?It took a few seconds to process, but she would have to question Starlass on this later. There was the mercenaries and the cuffs to deal with. She fired another spear, this time heading towards the lead mercenary Knight was dealing with. - Shadow Fixer -
Couple of gunshots, easy. Two sidesteps, left arm up to block some of the remaining ones, all good. He executed the move, and did just that...although... *Zap* An electrical charge went through his left arm, fairly strong to the point that even Cooper couldn't stop his reaction. 'Warning! Reboot in progress.' His arms were EMP resistant, though only enough so no internal damage or his limbs could shut down, though he had to purely rely on his reaction time for now. He looked up at Reaver and laughed. "No fan of guns eh?" He walked over to the pile of blades, one his and two Reaver's. He picked up Reaver's two blades and observed them, bought a little time. "If it's a melee you want, then fine" he commented before passing the two blades to Reaver, picking up his blade in the process. "Then let's dance!"

Breath."Shot." She coughed, feeling light-headed as she unwillingly lowered the gun in her hand. The pain in her shoulder increased along with the difficulty to breath. She caught the hand on her shoulder in an attempt to not lose her balance. "Not good," she said just before Claudia's fist impacted with her shoulder. The gun in her hand fell to the ground while Snowflake fell to her knees. She cried out again, focusing on deep breaths as she held on to Crimsons hand.

- Gamble Candice -
Gamble was one of the mercs dragging away the brute from the battlefield. They were having trouble but more trouble came when a spear like object shot past her, missing her by a few inches. But the others weren't so lucky. She had no time to assess the damage. She focuses on where the spears came from. Throwing her dice, they rolled across the floor, five and a two, so a seven. The dice glowed for a second before vanishing and a large scythe appearing in her hands. She made her way towards where the spears had came from.

- Starlass -
Here we go. I haven't had a good fight in a long time. Starlass ducked and weaved under Inferno's fireballs, losing some altitude in the process. Luckily, she was still far enough away that she had time to react to the blasts. In the pause between attacks, she launched a retaliation blast, another beam of light carving across the ground at Inferno's feet. - Sonar -
Sonar kept his head low as he ran forward, trying to avoid as much of the battle as possible. He wasn't exactly a combat kind of guy, so getting involved in the scuffle was something he'd like to avoid doing. Nevertheless, he had a job to do. Let's see... how can I help... Gunshots and raised voices echoed around him, the air feeling physically heavy because of the noise, but he kept going through the pain. Hostages. The big guy was just about knocked out earlier, and the boy... there he is. Poor kid. The merc who had kicked him around was distracted, so an opportunity presented itself. Sonar ducked behind the VTOL for cover, making his way around to Felix. "Hey, buddy," he spoke, hushed despite the noise being able to drown him out anyway, "How you doing? Need a hand there?" He shook Felix's shoulder for good measure, searching for a reaction.
- The Eye -
The Eye was annoyed. This obnoxious fool with the loud music and ridiculous sense of patriotism not only tried to interrupt the conflict, but he had parked his aircraft right in the way of his view. It was an eyesore, and it needed to be dealt with. He opened a portal off the side of his building, dropping from the roof into it and coming out in the Apache's cockpit, behind the pilot. He tapped the knucklehead on the shoulder. "Excuse me, sir. You're causing a nuisance." he cackled, his tone making it impossible to discern his level of seriousness.
- The Chieftain -
Ares hung his head, refusing to look up at Bellona as she walked away. He needed to rest, more than anything. Already he was recounting his mistakes and regretting his moves. The fight should have been so much more simple, but fatigue had him making poor decisions. He picked up his sword at thrust it through his belt again. Hopefully, it wouldn't come out again until he got some real sleep. Luckily for him, there was an abandoned apartment building nearby. The doors and windows were locked, but a balcony had a half-decaying deck chair still sitting on it. It's better than nothing. he thought, climbing the emergency exit ladder until he was high enough to hoist himself onto the balcony. It wasn't a large space, and if it rained he'd be uncomfortable, but it would do. He rested his mask on the ground beside the chair and lay down, fumbling off the shoulder straps on his pauldrons and letting them fall to the ground. In a matter of minutes, Ares was fast asleep.

- Hunter -
Luke's eyes had met Claudia's for only a second as his shot made it, however by doing so had made Broker's mask get cut in the process. However it seemed they were going somewhere else, Luke grimaced at his own wound, as he still felt the stinging pain and moved in the stands. With less seats, meant that it was clear that others could begin to see him and he scurried as he tried to find some sign of Jason or Felix.

- Crimson -
The world seemed to move into slow motion as the padded figure landed a solid blow on Snowflake's shoulder. At incredibly close range Crimson - in a rage - performed a sweeping kick to trip the figure, drawing a pistol.

- Nariko -
Nariko would have been impaled had one of her men not warned her at the last second. She threw herself flat and the spear shot right past her, flashing towards Knight. It wouldn't do any damage to the warrior, but it might surprise him. Taking her chance, she rolled and came up, hoping Knight would be at least a little of guard. - Reaver -
Reaver tilted her head in thanks for the weapons, and slammed the hilts together, connecting them. She span the double-sword around her, and her teeth flashed as a rictus grin formed on her face. "My dear Cooper, do you know the steps?" She asked as she darted forward, wielding the vicious weapon in a spinning frenzy, slashing this way and that in a unpredictable flurry. Several of the mercs started to shoot at Frequency, tired of the bombardment. Hopefully she'd have to take a more defensive stance.

- Frequency -
Frequency continued her playing, drawing up more spears as she saw some mercs prepare to fire. Oh bloody hell. She started to add vocals to her tune, slowing and tilting the bullets as they came hurling towards her. Some crashed into the structure of the viewing box, while some stopped. With one yelp, the hurled back towards the mercs that shot at her. - The Chaser -
The kick was felt and Claudia stumbled forward. She quickly turned herself around as she stumbled to the floor, noticing Snowflake's dropped gun. She leapt forward and aimed it towards the girl. "Well, isn't this an interesting situation." - The Broker -
The Broker reached the truck in time to see what was left of it. No computers, burnt and destroyed wheels, but some of the gear was still there, a helmet, good enough. He quickly put it on and grabbed one of the assault rifles he packed and some ammo. Time to get Jason and Felix. - Shadow Fixer -
The dance began. Interesting first steps. Cooper stepped back as Reaver came towards. As good as he was, the HUD was needed to repel the strikes, and it was already busy rebooting. The damage integrity was up at least, though he needed the other functions up and running. He was able to go on the defensive and block some of the more outstretched strikes, but he needed to find a window soon, or better, the HUD get back up and running.

- Reaver -
The mercs held their ground against the bullets on return, their armour absorbing the few impacts that connected. There were maybe fifteen now, all focusing fire on Frequency, attempting to force her to stop her assualt in a blaze of bullets. The noise of their combined fire was overwhelming. Further mercs saw the Broker entering the van and began to fire, sparks pinging off the overturned vehicle as their rounds punched into it. They would hold their ground. Reaver didn't let up. She hammered into Cooper, diving around him, slashing up and down and left and right as the took advantage of his lack of counter. Her double-sword was a blur of metal as she slashed and stabbed and chopped. Above the sound of gunshots and clanging her savage laughter rang out, her mirth and battle joy escaping as a terrible cackle.

- Ripley -
Ripley was chasing the little whisp about the sky. It was fun even though the thing was a lot faster than him, but the wind blowing directly in his face was keeping him wide awake. He chased the little thing. Onlookers that were still up pointed at him, chattering about the winged boy/creature flying through the sky. Ripley kept chasing it, eventually is vanished above central park. Hmmm, Maybe something is up here. He decided to descend into the Park.His bare feet touched the soft, squishy mud of the Central Park. Everything was covered in a thick smog that clouded Ripleys vision, but he could made out the tree's that were around him. He let out a small burst of sounds. His father taught him how to do this from the old hero who had a power similar to his. It was a super-power of his sound manipulation, echolocation. He felt scared, something was infecting him with this terror, He wanted to escape but curiosity held him to this place.

- Crimson -"Incredibly." Crimson responded deadpan, kicking the gun from her hand and stepping on her chest.
"Give me a reason for why he should live."
- The Knight -
Blake watched as Nariko ducked, dodging a metal spear heading straight towards the two of them. Then Blake's computers activated in the very moment, allowing him to catch the spear in one hand as it neared his chest. Tossing it aside, Blake activated shock pads in his gauntlets and smiled. "Doesn't look like we're gonna get anywhere anytime soon."
