Karako cast her Hyaku Shiki's beam rifle aside and unhooked one of the ninja-esque claw weapons from the back of the suit while she locked in on Art's position. He and the strangely humanoid mech seemed to be duking it out not too far away. With the claws held tightly in the Shiki's right hand, she kicked on the thrusters, scanning the Valsione mech for the hostage. "Thanks a bunch, Art. I'm moving in. Keep the asshole occupied." The suit's cameras picked up on a boy tied up and chained to the top of the odd looking mech. This was going to be a bit tricky but that was to be expected. She had a plan. It was going to be risky and probably scare the skit out of the hostage but Karako knew she could pull it off. A scared hostage was a lot easier to explain than a dead one. She picked up speed, getting nice and close to the feminine mech, holding the Hyaku Shiki's left hand out to grab the hostage while making a very precise claw-slash at the chains securing the boy to the mech. It was a crazy stunt but that's what made Karako a good pilot.
