Eric quickly realized he now had two ET's paying attention to him but before he could even try shooting again Ivor tackled one of them. As Eric made sure to point his gun away from the soldier he still noticed the pink outfit appear from nowhere, obviously somehow created by his armband. Before he could process Ivor's sudden transformation the ET's started to surround them, leaving Eric happy he got some pointers on how to use the bayonet.

Wanting to do something  Eric tried stabbing the ET closest to him but failed to even pierce its "skin". Instead he got smacked to the side. Laying winded on the ground he struggled to get back up. Before he could do so however the ET got close enough to try kicking him in the head. Eric barely avoided the thing's foot and thinking quickly grabbed the outstretched leg in hopes of making the alien fall.

While the alien was heavier than Eric had expected he managed to succeed, the light coming from his own armband covering both his arms as he pulled. While Eric got back up the light spread to the rest of body before manifesting a green version of the outfit Ivor had gotten.
