Ch. 16 Rescue in the Ruins

[VirusZero]

When the door burst open and more enemies came pouring out from inside the base, Andraia was knocked to the ground. When she looked up and realised just how many forces they had packed inside that base she was a little amazed. They must have been like sardines in there she thought. Though with them spilling out she wanted no part in trying to fight them all. The flail and shield ones would be easy to dispatch since she could fly and they couldn't reach her. But those rifle ones... They'd have to go first.

She went airborne and pulled her buster out. She unleashed a barrage of shots down on the pantheons. Some shots crashed against shields and did nothing. But others got lucky and struck the pantheons and did damage. A few crashed down, too damaged to do anything, before they could retaliate. Then they began shooting towards the sky.
Andraia spun around while shots flew by. Every now and again she returned fire with her buster to keep them from shooting too much. Others had made their way toward the skiff, that was their objective. Andraia didn't care because she could fly so it made no difference if they left her behind. Instead she was more concerned with shooting these enemies.

Stark meanwhile had noticed that the alarm had brought others to the fight... Creepers. They had begun to scale a fence before a bolt of lightning stopped that. Rai's action stopped them from making their way in. But Stark didn't want to let him steal all the glory. He raised his palm and unleashed a bolt of energy from his palm. The simple blast struck a creeper and it exploded. He pointed his palm to another, released a blast and the enemy before him exploded as the blast ripped through it.

Stark had blasted a few of the creepers but decided not to stick around any longer than he had to. The creepers wouldn't be able to do much against the flying one. And he didn't want to waste energy if he didn't have to. He turned and headed towards the skiff. Taking a leap he jumped and landed on. Not exactly a graceful landing, but it wasn't exactly a time for showboating.
