Only one Framewerk can stand on top of the tower at any time. However, Roxy is at the base of the tower and leaning on it with his back, so technically he's still in the previous zone.

If the thrusters are located on the lower spine of the Framewerk, then sure. Diver basically shot the part where the thrusters are attached to Caliburn.

@Penultimate_Pi
It's fine, but "ruining the integral point" could be elaborated on: Diver, while a weak Framewerk, does damage when hitting her opponent's weak points, partially ignoring their armor. Unless you imply that the thrusters are now malfunctioning with the "no turning back from the tackle" line.

@LHG100
Sure, if you want to.

@Cassowarysaur:

Yeshua has kept a low profile up to this moment, watching the others in zone A as they took down the Black Komodo. It was clear to him that if he should have taken his stand in equal ground with them he would have also been crushed like him. But Miles' arrogance turned out favorable to him: he provided an ample distraction while he took aim with his high-accuracy rifle, having his thrusters activated at low power to provide stability in water: it wasn't enough propulsion to lift Anzu out of the water, but enough to keep him still; an unconventional use for them, but ingenious for the pious pilot.

Soon he spotted a proper moment to strike out, and it would be against the other long-range Framewerk out of them, Archer. It made sense to pick out Krista out of the two who still lingered in zone A; Romeo didn't have any ranged weapons for all he knew, and thus placed him in lower priority for now. Yeshua took his time aiming for the Archer's cannon, making sure the bullet would pierce the very base of the weapon and cause it to malfunction: with her long-range cannon destroyed, he could then focus on her buddy Rose and his melee-based fighting style. With a silent prayer, Yeshua squeezed the trigger, and took the shot.

After he took the shot, Anzû dove into the water, swam to the other side and ran out of the water and into zone E, the Broken Hills. The area provides cover better suited for him than zone B would have, with broken monuments scattered all around, not to mention hills for uneven terrain. The Framewerk lied down behind a fallen pillar and rested his high-accuracy rifle on top of it, his sensors set to alternate between the lake and the top of the tower now that he was out of range of the two. He could hardly be seen in the zone, but he also didn't know from what direction they would come in. This was his best chance at coming out on top in this battle, while the majority of other Framwerks were on the other side of the arena. It was going to be 2-against-1, but he did what he could to tip the odds in his favor, and fight to the very end. He wasn't going to back down at this point.

Awww, Elise's Scream-moment got ignored...

@Penultimate_Pi and @Elitestpotato, your Framewerks are free to move.

"Uhh, I'll try," Elora responded to Koehler's order as Diver flew closer to Macabre. "But I think you should forfeit, you don't sound-" She then backed away by instinct when Caliburn opened fire on on the other stuck Framewerk. She could have taken that attack in place of Ryan, but her meek nature took over her. The two were now about to free themselves from the trap, so Elora had to act fast if she wanted to save him. There wasn't much time for him left; his Framewerk wasn't supposed to take any damage, and it was a miracle Macabre was even functional at this point. She heard the announcement, but ignored it, too swept up in the moment to realize that could have had been something for her to consider.

She thrust around to Caliburn's backside, and activated her drones' scanning routine again. She typed on the keyboard like a maniac; her fingers nailed lines of code on the program while her eyes darted back and forth on the screen. She came up with the idea of bypassing repetitive data already collected when the Black Komodo's data was processed and repurposing the scanning to only take data unique to the Caliburn model.

She collected the data in a new record time, and as she was transmitting this data to Ryan and Koehler she was already executing offensive mode on her drones: the moment they finished scanning, the disc-like objects extended laser turrets from their insides and began firing on Caliburn. They were mildly effective, comparable to mosquito bites on a human, but they came in a mass swarm of shots, and thus sure to distract even the most focused of pilots. Then Elora raised up Diver's ABR and revved it up just as the Caliburn freed itself from the glue. The Framewerk aimed it at one of the three weak points she discovered on the mighty giant, which was a joint between the Caliburn's chassis and the thruster systems. Elora bit her tongue, and opened fire.

The Truth Behind the Project

High up on the tree snoozed Elise when she was messaged by Akame, and she woke up rubbing her eyes. She wasn't the type to sit still for long periods of time, and would either get herself occupied with stuff to do or take a nap. The message was followed up by another, this rime coming from Rose. She basically said the same stuff, but mentioned an Inverted Rainbow. Well that sounds strange. Does it only come in black, white and gray? Does the pot of gold appear at the beginning of it? How can it be inverted if it's light splitting from air moisture? Eh, must be more stupid magic bullshit the furball's come up with.

She yawned while stretching her arms out, and looked down from the tree. She spotted Kasumii by the school gates, seemingly lost. It was quite funny to watch for a while, and she did, but then she remembered how Rose wanted her to come immediately. She guessed Kasumii was also in the party list based on what the two of them agreed on yesterday. She hopped off the tree and made a flip for fun, landing right next to the quiet girl.

"Are you lost, Cloaky? Here, let me show you something awesome." She grabbed the girl's arm, checked where the other girls decided to have their meeting using magic sense, and then teleported the two of them right to the spot.

"WHAZAAA!" Elise greeted the others with tongue flaying out in a classy fashion. She then raised Kasumii's hand. "May I present to you: fresh meat, ready for serving! Bon appetit!"

Two-zone travel is allowed, with the restriction of no attacks that turn. Zone G is the exception to this rule, as I've specified when I posted about the arena.

@redbaron1234
Two-zone movement through zone G is impossible.
