Not a Sayan"What do you mean, professor?" Ritsu asked the old man, and he returned to leaning on his clasped arms while looking at the screen.
"You do not know how the Cruxi operate. They are capable of horrible things. For example, what if Yarimoto Kenshi, the boy who talked a bit with the Elora girl, suddenly decided to use the high-frequency blade on the other Framewerks during a battle with the Cruxi?" He asked while looking at the visual feed of Phantom Zero launching into zone A along with the others. "That blade can pierce matter at the sub-atomic level. Only barriers of the highest energy-output can protect you from it. And he isn't the only one; every one of these pilots can be turned against them, and it was the downfall of Y2C. I must do what I can to achieve results, Lieutenant."
"Activate Data Drones," Elora commanded, and out of Diver's back-slots launched discs that soon de-compressed themselves and took the form of helicopter-sized half-orb machines as Diver skid through the open fields. This is it then, the start of the fight. First I'll need to set up for my allies before I start directly supporting them. The Data Drones kept even pace with her despite her great speed, buzzing around like a cloud of hornets.
"Initialize terrain scan protocol," Elora next said to them, and three of the drones shot up high into the stratosphere. They spread out and floated over the arena like satellites, giving Elora extensive and detailed data about all the locations of the arena and everyone's movement. Elora transmitted this information to Koehler, Ryan and Alexei, and a 3-dimensional map appeared to the corners of the four's visual feed with easy-to-read markers for the environments and the locations of all the Framewerks. They now had complete map awareness, and thus a considerable tactical advantage over the other Framewerks.
"I now have the map configured. It should appear in your visual feeds now, Koehler, Ryan, and...umm...Alexei..." she softly said the last name. However, Alexei's response was pure static, and Elora started to feel scared. "Umm, hey, are you okay, Alexei?" She then saw what was happening to the Daemon: It was covered in electricity, and running at a normal-class speed, thundering through the fields in absurdly swift fashion while shooting out sparks into the air.
"Sir, the Daemon's power output is spiking!" One of the scientists at lower deck shouted. "The Frame's systems can't contain the voltage!"
One of the other scientistas added to it: "Sir, the pilot's Synchronization Rate is rising to 120%...160%...200%! The Frame has absorbed the pilot!"
"You decided to play with powers you can't handle, huh? You bastard!" Lorenzo took the device and pressed Alexei Stukov's red button, but it was too late: The Framewerk started shaking violently while covered in rabid electricity, and then exploded, sending out a shockwave that was felt by everyone on the field.
"Whoa!" Lieutenant Ritsu took leverage from the back of Lorenzo's chair as the shockwave hit the base. After a moment of recovering, she took the microphone, and spke to the command channel. "Attention Cadets, the operation has been canc-" A smack could be heard on the command channel.
"-The operation continues on, despite Cadet Stukov's accident. Let it be a warning to aynone who tries to surpass their Framewerk's limits. Carry on with the battle."
Elora's lips quivered while she watched the Daemon's once mighty presence fade away like a candle midwinter, and she doubled over on her seat. Alexei's death affected her, despite having only known him for less than an hour. She really did like him, though she didn't want to admit it to Koehler, but now she could never tell what she really felt for him. Diver kneeled down and picked up one of the Daemon's pieces, and Elora started crying. This was the world she lived in; it was a world of war, and a world of death.
