Amazingly, Ashley’s plan actually seemed to have worked, even if Mika was unfortunately forced to use yet another of her very limited “get out of jail free” cards. The giant’s fist had substantially damaged the mech, and, as an added bonus, the blow appeared to have injured the massive monstrosity as well. Of course, this turn of events had prompted a shift in tactics from their foes, with Klava exiting the mech to engage Mika and Raven, while MDF took her place, but this actually worked to G.E.M.I.N.I.’s advantage. Mika and Raven were both skilled in anti-esper combat, and now, their main target was inside the mech that had been causing them so much trouble, allowing for the opportunity to take out two birds with one proverbial stone. The mech’s immunity to arcane attacks was still an issue, as was the crimson giant’s likely reluctance to fall for the same ploy twice in a row, but even that provided an opportunity, and Ashley was determined to make the most of it…

[color=MediumSpringGreen]“Cerise, can I get some long term, full-spectrum protection?”[/color] the Knight of Tomorrow inquired, even as an ever-increasing number of glowing energy particles coalesced at the gleaming, tuning-fork tip of her techno-wand. [color=MediumSpringGreen]“Thanks,”[/color] she told the red-head with a nod once the melody had been cast.

[color=MediumSpringGreen]“You and Cereza should fall back and support Binky and Gale,”[/color] the high-tech heroine added, her hardened gaze fixed upon the technological terror in the center of the chamber.

An instant later, Ashley darted forward with all the speed her esper form could muster. Charging straight at the menacing mech, the Knight of Tomorrow only slid to a stop once she was directly beneath the massive machine, at which point she peeked out around its bulky form, aimed her techno-wand at Behemoth!Elroy and fired off a bolt of raw technomystic power, followed by a second, equally potent, shot from the weapon itself, before ducking back under the mech. Even if she wasn’t able to anger the giant enough for it to send another punch slamming down on her (or rather, the mech she was sheltering [i]beneath[/i]), at least she would hopefully be able to inflict some damage on [i]it[/i], while Cerise’s melody protected her from the brunt of whatever attacks the mech managed to send her way…
