Amelia didn't have time to intercept the helicopter as Sovereign placed a tracking ring around it, waiting for her to fire. She had two missiles remaining, both of which were in fact surface to air missiles. There had been a reason why she'd chosen to save them, but in doing so she knew it would cost her in this engagement. She tracked it's movements, watching it's trajectory as it circled around. As soon as the helicopter lined up she opened her COM, "All units adjust trajectory and thrust on axis south west by north east on my mark!" she said as the helicopter began it's run. She sank Sovereign's chassis and brought the six legs closer in to make it a smaller target and to use the legs to defend like additional armor. Unlike the other GEAR's her's lacked the ability to thrust in a dash like manner, the six legs simply unable to perform a movement and stabilize that fast.
When the Helicopter opened fire her HUD flashed up a warning as an alarm sounded, "WARNING: Hull integrity at ninety percent" warned Sovereign in a soft female voice. The helicopters attack had stitched across three of Sovereigns legs, they were operational but the armor was dented and bruised badly. "MARK!" she yelled, each GEAR unit thrusting in either direction to move out of the helicopters trajectory. A few of the GEAR's were caught and gunned down, but a good amount of them managed to evade the helicopters run. "All remaining units, get back in formation and continue retreating and engage that chopper" she ordered as her four Gatling machine guns pivoted and began to spray four streams of light up at the helicopter, joined by her units additional assault rifle fire. Soon they would reach their secondary position, but she feared once they reached there they wouldn't have enough numbers to make a strong enough defense. This battle was not going well for the young strategist.
