Throwing himself to the floor as the bombardment came, Xerox pressed up his glasses turning to see the outside. "Oh, you have got to be fucking kidding me." he exhaled. It was rare for him to swear, but given the situation, it was understandable. Hundreds and hundreds of soldiers were raiding the mansion, including a large number of mechas. With Duncan having finishing off the exfil plans, Jericho made a move to through the window. Rachel had decided to be a decoy, using another window to try to get the attention of the huge impeding army.
Xerox had waited a moment, taking out a rapid-fire rocket-launcher, a moomba sized submachinegun and bracelet, a number of small robots with one moderately sized one and his labcoat. All of these were stored in his ESS. He never thought he would need to get so many at once, but this was dire. The rest of the stuff in there was mostly still in production, or had other uses. The sight of all of these, appearing out of almost nothing most likely shocked any of the Faction's soldiers who had seen. Setting most of these aside, he gave Rue the moomba sized weapon and shield. "When the 'song' is over, head over to Rachel and try to help her out, I doubt she will last long without the song. I'm gonna take care of the mechas."
Taking a step to the window, Xerox held the rocket-launcher, and sprayed it into the army that approached them. Explosions were everywhere, but only lasted for a short period, as Xerox had limited ammunition for the rocket-launcher. It required specialized rockets after all. A dozen explosions were scattered on the battlefield. But that only took care of a few mechas. Throwing his rocket-launcher back to his ESS Xerox took some distance, used Haste and Float paramagic and made a running jump out of the window. Making a huge distant leap, soldiers started to fire at Xerox, whom used his labcoat (made with kevlar) to protect himself.
As he started to fall, Xerox lowered his hand to the ground and brought out a giant mecha. The one he made from Galbanian mechas. He had only just finished recharging the energy for it, so it would only be able to last for 5 minutes. Nonetheless, the giant mecha squashed numerous soldiers it had landed on, and Xerox landed on top. "Fire Type B missiles on all active mecha units available in scan." The giant mecha's torso rotated, scanning the area, before firing missiles the homed onto all of the mecha in the area. "Sweep and clap" Xerox continued to command the mecha, as it sweeped the soldiers and clapped them together. Xerox continued to give the mecha commands.
However, it did not last the five minutes. It did not even last two minutes. A powerful EMP was concentrated onto the mecha and Xerox. Even with the magnetic shielding Xerox gave to the mecha, it was overpowered, and the circuitry started to blow. Leaping off the mecha, the rest of the mecha's missiles and energy for it's lazer blew the whole thing up. It was lucky that Xerox did not have any Type D missiles in there. It would of meant more than just the mansion being blown apart.
Being blown by the explosion, Xerox was flung back into the wall of the mansion. Blood spurt from his mouth from the impact. Falling to the ground, he pulled out a remote, and activated the small robots. The small squad of robots flew around shooting at the many enemies, but many of them were taken out before they could kill more than three units, if that. However, the moderately sized one had been dodging the bullets and spraying with a submachine gun. Taking down a couple of dozen soldiers, before a bullet clipped it's side, causing it to tilt and crash land, exploding.
Soldiers surrounded Xerox, as he was sitting against the wall, using some Cures to recover from the impact. Before they could fire at him, scraps of metal poured down between him and the soldiers, protecting Xerox from the bullets. Standing up, able to fight once more, he took out his giant spanner. It was time for some hand-to-hand combat. The fight was still raging on for now.
The song had finished, and Rue jumped out to follow after Rachel, spraying with the submachine gun, Rue had mowed down enemies and started to reach out for Rachel, taking down some of the soldiers holding her captive. Deploying the shield from the bracelet, Rue ran into the army, shooting with the gun and charging through or blocking bullets with the shield. The moomba was swift and navigated between legs and reached Rachel, knocking down the soldiers who had taken her. The moomba quickly tried to carry the girl, but realized, too late, she was too heavy for the moomba. Being knocked aside, the moomba thought, Did Rachel gain weight since we last saw her? forgetting it had been years since he last saw her, and that he had lots of other equipment weighing him down.
