Elora got the reply from Sigma, and she made a half-hearted laugh. At least she didn't openly despise her for deserting her, and the hope of friendship was still alive for Elora, even if barely. Still, she couldn't help but sigh once more as the other Framewerk now started moving, seemingly reacting to Rilus' appearance. Elora attempted to open up communications with it and explain that she wasn't going to fight, but realized that it was no use: the opposing pilot had it shut off. Well, there isn't any reason for any of them to have them on, after all it was a free-for-all, and Strawberry Team was just an exception.

At this point the opposing Frame's eyes turned red, and Elora found herself staring at the wrong end of a rifle. It was clear that the Frame was hostile at this point, but Elora didn't care. She could have started dodging, maybe get close and scan it, activate her own rifle and have a shoot-out, but Elora found it pointless at this point. She was going to get trounced on by the more powerful Frames once they were done with their scuffle anyway, and there was nothing she could do about it. She didn't have the will to fight like everyone else. She was done.

"Go ahead, give me your worst," Elora said to herself. "Might as well call this a makeshift stress test while we're at it." Rilus then spread its arms wide apart as a sign that she was going to bear every single round the Frame had to offer. The shots clanged against Rilus' robust armor as it stood in place and embraced them. The shots started to dent Rilus' armor, and Elora got warnings from the Combat Analyzer against taking sustained fire, but she shut the computer sound off. There was no need for that anymore. Then, with assistance from Rilus' anti-grav projectors, Elora let her Frame fall on its back with a loud thud, further proof to the rifle-toting Frame that she was easy pickings. If the opponent chose to continue shooting at Rilus, it would result in enough damage for her Frame to be shut down. Elora rolled to her side in her seat, took a fetal position, and listened at the endless clanging.
I actually considered fire as Elise's power, but decided not to on account of there already being an elemental user in the RP. Also, I have a sneaking suspicion I stole the red color from Akame.
@TheWindel
Done.

@KoL
Sure, looking forward to it.
Either way, it won't change how Elora's gonna react. (hint: it's gonna be sad)
I'm pretty sure Cruiser's gonna leave Rilus alone now, but just in case I'll wait for his post before I post mine. It's getting awfully late where I am, so it may have to be postponed till tomorrow.

EDIT: So Utanau's cut off communications, but does that mean Elora can't hear what she's saying, @GreenGoat?

EDIT2: Alright, gotcha.
I'm waiting on Scot.
A blast of smoke suddenly erupted under Rilus's feet, and Elora screamed at the static she now got in her visual interface. She recognized it was some kind of weapon-jammer, and even her Combat Analyzer was taking pains to continue the data collecting process. Not only that, but the enemy turned out to have two swords after all: Elora was now starting to regret her charge a little bit by the time she hit the other Frame, who seemed to block the tackle.

After she transmitted the data she got from the contact, she realized Sigma was now fighting her own battles, which meant she was going to be alone for this battle against an enemy built for pure destruction. Elora didn't like her odds, and her earlier courage was starting to wane, instead filling up with fear. Even if Elora pushed herself and managed to get the scanner working long enough to get the data on the enemy, it would be useless since her weapon wouldn't be working, and even then she would be toting a cumbersome rifle in the face of a dual-wielding swordsman. She got a message from Sigma saying she should run.

In a state of tranquility, she made her decision, and opened a channel for the opponent to hear: "I'm sorry, I quit." Then, she activated her anti-grav thrusters and retreated from the smoke and the opponent inside, and using her jet booster headed straight in the opposite direction of all the explosions and ground tremors she spotted. The enemy could try to pursue her, but she trusted that the cover provided by the smoke trap would aid in her escape. As she was flying she heard one of the Framewerks blasting music across the ruins; at least someone was having fun, she thought to herself.

She continued flying in the direction of AGAS, and landed somewhere nearby in the field of pillars. She did notice the other Frame nearby, but at this point she just wanted a break from all the violence, and if the other Framewerk wanted a fight it wouldn't get one. She wrote a message to Sigma: "I left you behind. Please forgive me." Tears started to form up in her eyes at the realization of what she has done due to her cowardly nature. She thought she heard something, and after a moment of silently listening she thought she heard someone's voice. It was really quiet, barely reaching her earlobes, but it was there. Elora started to feel a bit better for some reason, but she was still sad at her weakness.
And just as I expected, the RP turned into an epic clusterfuck.

@Gnar The Missing Link, Does the smoke also affect Rilus' scanning?

EDIT: @Dead Cruiser, just because the smokescreen happened doesn't mean Rilus didn't tackle you. Unless you inferred by the "met the charge" line that you blocked the tackle with your swords?
