Rio kept her head cool as she tried to zone out the brawlers, but it became apparent soon enough that her bullets weren't very effective. Despite being under constant fire, they brushed them off like it was nothing. Union was a bit too slow to effectively run and gun, so when the brawler started charging at her she couldn't run. Luckily for her, Gurevich had made it so she didn't have to by slamming straight into the hulking machine.

She hates to admit it, but the foreigner saved her skin back there. Rio lowered her rifle to finish off the GEAR on the floor, but was interrupted by a shot hitting her shields. She quickly shifted focus from the brawler to the snipers, who were pressuring [i]her[/i] now. 

[color=94ffad]"Shoot,"[/color] she muttered. Rio activated her boosters to narrowly dodge a second shot, then ran around on the field to try and avoid more enemy fire. She saw Bill finish off the skirmisher, taking some heat off of Rio's back as one of the snipers took aim at Bill. Soon after, Hayakawa went for the other sniper as Laudat took aim from the back. Good, now that the team sniper was free, some of the heat should be off of the rest of them.

But there was another issue now. As the three others focused their attention on the two snipers, Gurevich and Rio were left with the two brawlers. Rio couldn't afford to waste any more time running, she needed to back up Gurevich before he was disabled and left her in a two versus one. Not only that, but if she didn't start pressuring the brawlers again, one of them might have gone for the unprotected Ian.

[color=94ffad]"Keep him occupied, Gurevich!"[/color] Rio barked over the communications as she took aim with Union's rifle. Her target wasn't the brawler on the floor, but rather the other one that roamed around. If she could hold him off, then he wouldn't pose a threat to her team. Following that line of logic, she unleashed a storm of bullets upon the enemy GEAR.
