Again it happened too quick for Katya one second she was moving towards the main battle the next her mech rocked as a an explosion detonated right before her. The force of the detonation nearly knocking Caretaker of it feet. Looking to see where it came from seeing a mech atop the tower of power. Katya was going to stop and try to shoot it when she noticed it started to fall and fired. [color=Fuchsia]"Shit!"[/color] she exclaimed as she worked as she worked the controls hoping to avoid getting shot. Her efforts though were fruitless as the round impacted her left leg. Alarms flashed at her and filled her cockpit with there unpleasant noise alerting her the that left leg had taken damage. Looking at her mechs status she sighed in relief, finding luck was at least somewhat on her side as the was still usable. but now every step sound like metal grinding on metal. A sound that was meant something had broken, but not circuital to the use of the leg. Her armor had done its job and stop the leg being destroyed but in turn the legs internal works where now mostly exposed the armor having nearly all been blown off in the two shots. Another hit would most likely cripple the leg or destroy it. [color=Fuchsia]"Dam you! I just had that leg serviced."[/color] she muttered now annoyed knowing she should have been watching her surroundings better maybe then she might have noticed the mech a top the tower and avoided getting hit. Seeing the gray mech standing in front of her block her path to the other. She needed to get past this mech and assist the others, or at least use them for protection. Out here on her own she was a sitting duck to any larger or better armed mechs the enemy had. But with her left leg damaged she movement speed was limited until she could get drone on it which in the middle of a fight was simply not a good idea. The drone themselves not able to take much punishment. [color=Fuchsia][i]"I have to fight it. If I want to get past and help the others I need to take this prick out."[/i][/color] she thought look looking at her rifles read out to check its energy level. Only to discover she had it "Marker mode." [color=Fuchsia]"Crap I forgot to switch it over to the damaging shots. Stupid Katya."[/color] She berated herself for such a rookie mistake, then again mistake play out to her advantage given now the target was marked she could easily use her drones explosive function to try and do some damage. That he was lit up like a Christmas tree on her sensors and anyone else near by. But the mistake in future she needed to avoid or it might just get her killed. Tapping on her weapons control panel she flicked the rifle into "combat mode". In response to the command the rifle gave a threatening hum. This time when she shot at it would actually do more then mark him. Watching the enemy carefully Katya prepped four drones for detonation. Once given the commanded to detonate the power supply would started feedback on itself and after a minute KABOOM the drone would explode the only problem was she had to stay close to do it as she needed to keep control of the drones. Although that wasn't an issue she doubted she could get away form this foe even if she tried. She raised her rifle at the enemy mech, aiming only by the cross-hare on her view screen she didn't have time to what for her targeting computer and at this range it should hard to miss. The mech don't look like a mobile type so it shouldn't be hard to hit it. It was then her view of the mech blurred for a second as points on it body became highlight as weak points by her mech computer. A message appearing across the left side of her view screen that she could now see the mech weak point and the mech statistics. Katya only really noting the armaments finding them a little worrying. At range she had little chance against and at melee range she'd be out gunned. But she had no choice but to get in close and try by enough time for her drones to explode on it weak points. The plan depended though on getting in close and Caretaker having enough durability left to keep the mech busy until her drones exploded. Would it work? Katya didn't know but she saw it as her only chance to achieve victory over this foe. Firing a shot off Katya made Caretaker move forward with as much speed as the mech could make it muster. All the while firing at the enemy mech for total 2 or 3 more shots. She planned to get into melee range to guarantee her drones could deploy hoping the Gray mech chain sword would mean the pilot wouldn't try to avoid her. Even if she couldn't get into melee range she only needed to close the gap. While doing this she opened up her drone hanger doors and four EDEN drone quickly climbed out. Leaping towards the enemy mech the second Katya got close. Landing on it or if missing or out range scurrying to it as quickly as they could. Latching on if they reached with magnetic feet their power supplies starting to overload. Causing the drones to start sparking as they moved into position on the mechs weak points. Meanwhile Katya if she got in to melee range would try to use her rifle to block chain sword best she could or if she could reach would simple keep firing quickly as she could. Either way she hope the drones would reach and explode with enough force to damage the mech. Otherwise she all she could do was fight until the bitter end. The young woman while afraid of dying would refuse to go down without a fight.
