Falk and Tian were able to down half a dozen of the invaders that encircled Yui Gang in their first attack, however, the remainder of the aliens scattered around the area. The aliens were trying to avoid any more casualties from wide area attacks, while taking the chance to flank any vulnerable targets, aiming to kill in one fell swoop. In fact, four of those who avoided Tian's first attack attempted to slip right past him; their target was none but the visibly vulnerable Cellica. Their strategy was simple but effective, with two of the aliens charging at their prey — one from each of Tian's sides — and the last two going straight to the striker, in an effort to draw his attention. The same trick would be used in Yui Gang's case, with the exception that the invaders ignored the striker and charged at both Falk and Rin. The trees wouldn't offer as much protection as the two imagined, since the alien's innate agility allowed them to leap and bound out of the branches, going right after the targets they pleased all thanks to the situation Yui Gang found themselves into. The remaining aliens spread around and attacked anyone they could close into. However, this was just the beginning of their fight. The main attraction was just about surface, after summarily shrugging off Raphel's shot with a swing of its tail before firing back at the gunner with an explosive shot.

While his information was far from accurate — only one sensor had been damaged, which was hardly a liability — she didn't have time to point it not when there were just a few more seconds before... [color=cornflowerblue]"Everyone, brace for impact in three, two, one—"[/color] [color=de3163]"Yahoo!"[/color] Mavis overexcited shout cut right through Subaru's transmission. The redhead came flying like a missile seconds before the large invader burst right through one of the old buildings, spreading debris and dust all over the place, covering the area in a thick cloud of powdered concrete. The leader of team Arizona crashed against the ground with a dry thud. She used her shield to absorb most of the impact while flattening one of the invaders that were charging at right at Tian before rolling back to her feet. [color=de3163]"Yiha! I wasn't expecting this to happen at all when I tried to jump on that thing's back,"[/color] she said to herself while coughing a hefty amount of dust. [color=de3163]"Oh, hey Big Guy! How's it going? I, erm... brought a gift for everyone. Hehe,"[/color] she said, with a playful smile on her lips, as soon as she noticed that she landed right next to the imposing figure of Tian in his armor. [hr]
