While it was great to be reunited with their old Correctors, things didn't exactly improve. They still had a battle to deal with and E.G wasn't that certain they would be able to rally together this time. They had been drinking and having a good time. Now their bodies and minds were out of sync with one another and she hoped that if they could withstand the main fight, they might be given an opportunity to end it without any damage to their team. Fox mentioned he would take them down when given the chance. As much as she wanted to warn him to be smart and not reckless, she stopped herself from speaking up as the others began to appear. "I hope you're not too rusty, BreGle." She smiled a little, trying to keep the mood light even though the music playing kept things chaotic and uneven. She could tell different people had different ideas as to how to handle the deadly duo known as Fright and Fury. Eternal Grace licked her lips and took a cautious step back as Futen spoke up. Eclipse was the very last to join them, which gave E.G some relief. "I thought we'd be better at defense this time." Ice still wasn't sure about the two in front of them. To him, they were holding back, they were up to something. Their crimes had cost people lives and money, and most of all security. The best thing about their era was that people lived without fear of terrorism or hackers. People could go anywhere, use the internet for nearly anything and yet there were still criminals looking to take wrongful advantage of the blessed situation that had taken years to solidify. Ice was grateful for the shield. He knew it wouldn't hold for the entire duration but they would be pretty useful up to a certain point which would allow them movement if necessary. "You two are pretty strong, I'll give you that. Unfortunately, we're also pretty strong. I'm willing to bet we're even stronger than you." Ice smirked and began to create a long broadsword out of ice. It would be sturdy and strong. Sure, it was heavy but he could handle the strain and pain if he had his friends. The notion was cheesy but still true. Ice valued his friends and his life, as crazy as it was. He had someone back home waiting for him and he wouldn't let anything take away his freedom. "Oh we're ready." Fright laughed, her pink hair moving as she cackled and raised her own scythe. "We've been ready." She then ran forward, bringing her weapon up and behind her. E.G recognized the attack and quickly dove out of the way. When the wave of clutter came towards the group, none of it damaged them thanks to the tricky E.G had pulled with her initial defensive spell. "Nice trick." "I know you're style, you're all trick, no treat." E.G smirked and Ice ran forward and the two began to swing their weapons. As they connected, icy particles flew everywhere and E.G knew Ice's sword wouldn't be able to hold out much longer. "Ice!" She called out though she knew any of the others would be quite capable of stepping in and helping, as they were good with close combat too. E.G kept her distance and saw Fury had vanished. As she turned around, trying to figure out where he had gone to, she saw him materialize right behind Ice and attack him from behind. The attack didn't do its full damage but it did knock Ice off to the side and left a nasty gash on his back. Eternal Grace shuddered to think what would have happened if Ice hadn't been shrouded in her defense system. Clearly the first encounter was pure child's play, it seemed Fury and Fright weren't messing around anymore. She refused to have this battle claim a life of a friend. While she didn't know who these people were or why they were being so vicious, she wouldn't let her friends get hurt. Ice rolled a few times before settling on his back. He let out a loud cry and arched up, trying not to touch his gash to the cold digital grid under his body. E.G began to ran for him but Fright was quick to charge for him while Fury set his sights on BreGle. Looking back and forth, E.G wasn't sure what to do first. Both of their movements were quick and heavy handed. It was becoming clear that their fight before was nothing, that maybe Fury and Fright had just been testing the waters, joking around. Now they were serious. E.G grabbed onto Ice's legs and pulled him out of Fright's attack. The long sleek weapon was retracted and began to glow a furious dark red. That was not good. "Guys, a little help!" She called out as she looked over Ice who seemed to be in a daze from the pain and shock. She knew he'd be fine, he just needed to focus. She could see Fury trading attacks with everyone and not flinching or showing struggle at all. She could try healing his wound or at least making it so the pain didn't reach his real body. It was a very delicate trick because it would also make his avatar as a whole, unable to feel pain. That meant if he was attacked, he might not know it and might make things worse. "I'm fine...really." Ice grunted and tried to push himself up as he began to create another icy object. He opened a hand and held out a rose to E.G. He grinned and got to his feet while Fright went to help with Fury. "If you've got time to woo me, you've got time to attack but only long distance okay?" E.G said and waved him off away from where the majority of the fighting was going on. It was close combat, not her strong suit but she knew Ice didn't need a babysitter. The blue haired male carefully sat down, ignoring the stinging pain radiating throughout his body as he began to construct kunai which could help his friends out. Meanwhile, E.G ducked out of the way as one blade connected with another. She was still trying to figure out a clever way to get the upper hand. Both attackers were great with short range but so far only the girl had shown any sign of long range attacks and for now, they were useless. Maybe they could try to get some distance and make a trap or something?
