This is probably suicide, but... Uthma thought. He flipped Xain the bird and bolted off towards Ian, ready to take him out...then it struck him that he had no weapon.

* * *

Redhollow switched up his strategy. He no longer went toe-to-toe (or blade-to-blade) with Zalan anymore. Instead he took to utilizing his other combat skills - even if they were affected by the wound in his stomach.

The ninja sprinted off to the side, giving the appearance that he was fleeing. Zalan chuckled in mockery but soon chased after Redhollow, believing the ninja to be a coward.

Redhollow lead the Zalan Mafia boss towards Xain, who was charging after a fleeing Uthma.

Can't believe I'm helping him... he angrily thought to himself. As long as he's alive long enough for me to kill him myself!

Zalan had slowed down once he saw where Redhollow was running, but he did not simply drop the chase; he just took caution to not get within reach of the Super Cyber Seru.

Redhollow's weakening scythe flashed outward and cut through the air, lodging itself a few inches into Xain's back. The Super Cyber Seru spasmed in surprise and in an attempt to counter. His lower body swiveled around, stealing the scythe from the ninja's grip. The Astral Sword sliced horizontally, aiming for Redhollow's throat.

The ninja ducked underneath it and continued to run forward, past the minotaur.

He went straight for Uthma's sword and threw it in the mercenary's direction, yelling, "Uthma!"

* * *

The shovel proved to be stronger than the naginata, swiping it to the side with relative ease. Unfortunately for Mr. Virus, the two darts in his torso had slowed him down considerably, and had an effect on his strength as well. He was unable to quickly deliver the finishing blow.

Sise-Neg growled in frustration, but his expression soon turned to a smirk as he realized he had the speed advantage.

And to add to his attitude, out of the corner of his eye...

He saw Damien completely still. The old man had finally fallen...

* * *

Uthma had to quickly turn around and snatch the handle out of the air. He was surprised to see that Redhollow had given him the sword, but he didn't have time to think too much about it.

In the same motion that he caught the sword, he twisted around and slammed the blade down on a surprised Ian, leaving a long, gaping cut across the man's torso. Ian shrieked in agony and fell backward, dropping his own weapon.

The mercenary and Elena quickly got to Wendy, making sure she was alright.

"Wendy! Are you okay?!?" Elena asked, panicking.

Wendy nodded, but neither Uthma nor Elena believed her. She was breathing heavily and the blood pouring out of the cuts in her arm and sides seemingly refused to stop.

"Uthma what should we do?!?"

------ UTHMA DECISION ------
A) Have Elena and K73SK take Wendy and Sir Z to the hospital - you and Redhollow face off against Zalan and Xain
B) Finish off Xain and Zalan before getting Wendy to safety
C) You all need to flee. There's no way you can handle Xain and Zalan in these conditions

What is all this ⌂_⌂?
Just vote for what I voted for fools.

Uthma looked over his shoulder to see what Redhollow was doing. The ninja was glaring at Xain, whose hooves were scraping the ground, ready to charge.

"Elena...take Wendy and get K and Sir Z. All four of you go to the hospital. Now."

"Wait but what about Xain-?" Elena asked, worried.

"We...we can handle it."

"We?"

The mercenary looked to Redhollow and nodded. "Redhollow and I..."

* * *

Those idiots should be here by now... Sise-Neg thought to himself. He hopped backward to evade the shovel thrust aimed for his throat.

"Quit....running....you...bastard!" Mr. Virus growled with each swing, aiming higher and lower. The darts in his torso had put a dent in hi fighting abilities. He was swinging slower, weaker, and was tiring quickly. And from what he could tell, Damien was already dead.

"No, I like toying with you!" Sise-Neg replied, chuckling as he ducked beneath a swipe. He followed up this maneuver with a cut across Virus's thigh with the naginata. He stood back up to thrust the pole arm into Virus's chest, but the shovel head came up in time to protect its wielder.

* * *

Elena assisted Wendy onto her feet, slinging the wounded girl's arm over her own shoulder. She spotted K73SK and Sir Z and lead her companion towards them, moving slowly.

Uthma twirled the sword in his hand, getting ready to spring into action. Redhollow had no weapon, however - his scythe was lodged into Xain's back.

And the minotaur still had the Astral Sword in his hands.

"The the the the the are you doing?" Redhollow yelled, glancing at Uthma.

"We're gonna kill these two!"

Redhollow shook his head, but deep down, he was thankful to get assistance. Sure, Uthma was his rival, but he was a skilled fighter as well.

"Gonna need my scythe first."

"Wait...here!" Uthma replied. He picked up the sword Ian had dropped.

"Hey! That's...mine!"

"Beat it, a**hole."

Ian growled and got to his feet, fleeing the lobby towards the hospital.

Uthma tossed the sword over to Redhollow, who agreed to make use of it.

Zalan walked up next to Xain, a cocky grin on his face. His two swords were sitting on his shoulders. "Well, well, well. Bit of an unlikely tag team. Charge, Xain."

The Super Cyber Seru obliged, charging straight for Redhollow, swinging the Astral Sword at the ninja's chest. Redhollow simply stepped to the side to avoid it, slashing at Xain's thigh. It failed to do much more than a nick.

Meanwhile, Zalan was dashing straight for Uthma, ready to face a new opponent. Uthma blocked the four slashes that were instantly thrown at him before throwing his own two that were dodged and blocked.

Before Xain slammed into the wall, his body swiveled around and he charged straight back at Redhollow, the Astral Sword chopping downward.

The ninja was quick to dodge yet again, cutting the minotaur on the other side of his body.

Still no significant damage.

* * *

Sise-Neg spotted the incoming Hunter fleet, all of them riding Gola Gola vehicles, just as his scouts dotting the landscape had told him they would. They were still a few minutes away, and he had to survive long enough to snatch one of them.

The lord was quickly thrown out of his thoughts as Virus managed to slam his shin with the tip of the shovel, toppling Sise-Neg. He was forced to roll over and hop onto his feet or face death by shovel slam.

* * *

"Up ahead, Lady Ailee! On the roof!" called one of the Hunters, indicating the fight between a hulking shovel-wielder and what appeared to be Lord Sise-Neg.

Lady Ailee nodded and readied her Gimard gun, ordering her Hunters to do the same. "Fire!"

The fireball projectiles all shot at the roof, some seven or eight shots homing in at once.

* * *

"Uthma! We need to get my scythe! I can't do anything with this piece of crap sword!" Redhollow roared, rolling to the side away from the Astral Sword.

"I'm...kinda...busy here!" replied the mercenary, locking blades with Zalan.

"NOW or we're DEAD!"

Uthma glanced over his shoulder at the scene to his left. Xain was ready to charge at Redhollow, up ahead of Uthma, a ways behind Xain. That would give him enough time to leap over Xain's charging back and snatch the scythe...

But what would Zalan do with the opening he would be left with?

----- UTHMA DECISION ------
A) Wait until Xain charges and grab the scythe
B) Continue to fight Zalan and let Redhollow get his own weapon
C) Try to take down Zalan quickly to help Redhollow get the scythe
