Serah clicked her tongue as she saw both Shiva and Raptor dash forwards on the battlefield, losing sight of Raptor but just barely managing to make out Shiva still from between the buildings. If she moved forward from this position she'd almost certainly be spotted by those two... and that's not a fight Serah can win, as much as she wanted to square off against Griff right now. She'll need to isolate him first, somehow...

[color=00aeef][i]'...No, wait! Think about your role, Serah!'[/i][/color] she chastised herself. Taking a deep breath, Serah reached up to her ear to activate her voice communications to try and relay their positions. Just as she was about to, though, ear-bleeding static came through the channel and her monitor flashed red. [color=00aeef][i]'This is bad...'[/i][/color] she thought to herself, realising she'd been jammed. Rhylaen and Electric Dragonfly must be somewhere close by, but Serah hadn't seen sight of either of them. Several buildings surrounded Atty, so dragonfly could've been hiding behind any one of them. If she moved forward now, its entirely possible she'd be pincer'd by a majority of team Apple...

Then with a smirk, she asked her frame: [color=00aeef]"What do you think we should do, Atty...? Run away?"[/color]

His core glowed hot, his body was on fire. Its like the adrenaline that coursed through Serah's veins was also flowing through Atty. And, because of that, she knew he'd reached the same answer she had.

[color=00aeef]"...I thought so! I want to fight, too!"[/color]

Serah and Atty dashed out of their cover, speeding along the battlefield and keeping their eyes on where they saw Shiva and Raptor. If both of them were on standby for enemy units, then she'd just draw the fire to herself. Atty swung its arm, bringing both barrier shields up inbetween it and the other two frames to soak any shots that Atty couldn't dodge out of the way of in time. Then, after coming face to face with Shiva(P14), Serah briefly paused in her tracks and pointed the long end of Atty's blade straight at Griff.

[color=00aeef]"This is payback for earlier, you jerk!"[/color] she'd taunt him, even though the message itself was unlikely to come through. The blade's edge glowing hot, she dragged it across the floor and swung upwards, sending a wave of plasma energy barreling straight at Griff. It was obvious, it was loud, it was very telegraphed- and it was all exactly as Serah wanted it to be. Her team was behind her, she knew this much, so the best thing she could do right now was bring the enemy straight to them. After goading Griff, Serah knew her time was limited- she and Atty flew backwards as far as they could go, hoping to outrun Shiva and Griff and regroup with her team.
