Charmaine had flinched on hearing Seo's screaming into the voice-channel. "Tch." He allowed his teeth to grind together, his face looking anything but pleased. What was it now? [i]'Useless federation pilots...'[/i] The young man thought as the Creusherazade was approaching it's teammembers. "Understood!" He yelled back after having grunted to himself sufficiently. What if Ryoichi were to arrive on scene before him? He had swiftly replied to Seo after all, had he disposed of the other force so quickly? [i]'Interesting. Perhaps I was too fast in judging the old man? No matter. He is a lifetime away from my power...'[/i] The masked young man smirked as he came closer to his destination, but it soon faded as two clear visible flying objects came into view. One were Ryoichi's machine. How had it been able to get there before him? Had he'd been slacking too much on the withdraw or was it the performance of Ryoichi's gunpla. 'Not bad. For a lowly second rate coordinator. Hm?' His view changed to the red gunpla ahead. [i]'Is that a virgo? No. It's something else.'[/i] He quickly realized this was something he had no recollection of, was it a kitbash? The uncertainty filled him with irritation, how dared the enemy use something he was unfamiliar with. But even worse were that Ryoichi had gotten there first and were now engaging it in battle. It angered him that Ryoichi might get more gunpla destroyed than him, the very idea made him almost feel physically ill. But it was too late now, the fight had already begun and if he were to join in on it he would be regarded as a coward that would team up on this enemy gunpla. His pride as a warrior couldn't allow that to happen. "I... I will let you handle this one, old man! If you get shot down don't expect me to pick up the pieces!" Charmaine said in the open channel out towards Ryoichi, while allowing his Creusherazade to land a distance away from the two battling gunpla, placing itself on top of a tall tower-like building. "Seo! Let gramps handle this one, If you engage in this fight you might hit the wrong target. Let's keep our energy for the next fight. You do want to win don't you?" Charmaine offered a satisfied grin. [i]'When it comes down to it though. I don't need you or your useless friends Seo. Nor your money. I'm afraid you will not be the one to shoot down Naoki. That will be me... I'll settle things once and for all. Anything that guy can do... I can do just as well.'[/i] Charmaine momentarily spaced out, his mind barraged by flashbacks of another masked boy years past.
