The storm dies down.

Owen: "What just..."

Owen, Risa, Yukiko, Alexis, Jay, Denton, Spencer, Jeremy, Robert, and Cole are completely separated from the others.

Risa: "Guys?!"

A dozen of the strange soldiers surround them.

Denton: "Are you freaking kidding me?!"

The soldiers stare at the heroes.

Jay: "(sighing) Just take them out."

Jay points his revolver at a soldier.

Jeremy: "I don't think that these guys are your normal soldiers..."

Jay pulls the trigger.

Yukiko: "Did he just-"

The bullet deflected off of the soldier's head.

Spencer: "Shit."

Alexis is blocking a soldier from clawing at her.

Samuel: "A little help would be appreciated!"

Robert shield bashes the soldier off.

Alexis: "Thanks."

Robert: "No problem at all."

Jeremy is doing his best to dodge two.

Jeremy: "What kind of steroids did these guys eat?!"

Cole fires his cannon at one, but it only knocks a soldier back a foot.

Cole: "All of them?"

Samuel: "They're like walls that can move like an animal!"

All twelve dive towards them.

Yukiko: "Denton!"

Denton switches to martial art style as an aura around him, Risa, and Yukiko forms.

Denton, Risa, and Yukiko: "Synergy Attack, Torrential Whirlpool Accelerator!"

They initiate the attack and get the soldiers away from them before Denton changes back.

Cole: "We need a plan!"

Owen: "And fast!"

The soldiers prepare for another attack.

Meanwhile...

The girl identical to Anthony and her counterpart are standing next to a billboard in the middle of nowhere.

Boy: "What do you think the others are doing Isabel?"

Isabel: "Anthony's probably being an idiot with Kyle, Roy."

They can see dust clouds in the distance after a few minutes.

Roy: "What is that?"

They both equip their own gear. Isabel has amber claws and now has fox ears and and a tail while Roy has an orange scythe and dirty attire.

Isabel: "Trouble."

They hurry towards the dust.

Meanwhile...

Owen is struggling to hold back three.

Owen: "(struggling) Help!"

Risa gets them off with an alarming kick.

Risa: "(in pain) They're made of fucking steel!"

The force of the kick and the soldiers' durability has temporary disabled Risa.

Spencer: "How do you beat these things?!"

Jeremy rushes to Risa.

Jeremy: "They're relentless!"

Jeremy can't get past the soldiers.

Robert: "There's got to be something!"

Yukiko grabs Risa.

Yukiko: "We'll try-"

The soldiers surround the two.

Risa: "(in pain) We're screwed!"

A soldier lunges at the two.

???: "Don't touch her."

Earth erupts as a sort of wall in front of the two, protecting them from the attack.

Risa: "(in pain) Roy?"

Isabel and Roy have arrived at the scene.

Isabel: "You guys need some help?"

Cole: "Definitely!"

The two notice thee unfamiliar individuals.

Roy: "Who are they?"

Robert: "On our side!"

Risa and Yukiko get away.

Owen: "We'll introduce each other later!"

Jeremy looks towards Risa and Yukiko.

Jeremy: "We'll wrap this up before getting some healing taken care of!"

The soldiers focus on the newcomers.

Isabel: "So what's the best way to deal with this?"

Roy: "I have no idea."

A binary aura surrounds the two.

Alexis: "Where is the weak spot..."

One of the soldiers behind Roy has a strange aura leaking from the back of his neck.

Samuel: "Bingo!"

Roy and Isabel block a total of four soldiers.

Alexis: "Go for the necks!"

Jeremy weaves underneath a soldier and slams a home run into his neck, killing him instantly.

Spencer: "That's not the weirdest sentence I've heard in my life."

Spencer is surrounded by four.

Spencer: "Thousand Arrow Wave!"

Spencer's Echo splits apart and skewers through all four necks.

Samuel: "Denton?"

Denton has leaped in to join Roy and Isabel.

Roy: "What're you doing?"

Alexis, Robert, Owen, and Cole defend Risa and Yukiko from another two.

Cole: "Just do it guys!"

The aura around the three glows bright.

Isabel: "Do what?"

Risa: "(in pain) Anime."

Roy: "(spark in eyes) Did someone say anime?"

Jeremy and Spencer head over to the others.

Jeremy: "I'll take care of healing!"

Jeremy begins healing Risa.

Denton: "Just keep your rhythm."

Rocks form on the enemies' bodies.

Denton, Isabel, and Roy: "Synergy Attack..."

Denton jams his claws into the ground.

Denton: "... Continental..."

Isabel jams her claws into the ground.

Isabel: "... Breaker..."

Roy jams his scythe blade into the ground as the soldiers lunge towards them.

Roy: "... Impact!"

The soldiers stop just shy from attacking range from the three, but nothing happens.

Denton: "Death is at your door."

The Japanese kanji for earth flashes as the ground sprouts earth spikes that skewer perfectly into their necks, killing them instantly.

Roy: "What did we just-"

Robert: "We'll explain later."

The area around them is barren except for the base and no signs of conflict are visible.

Owen: "Hope the others are okay."

Jeremy: "I hope that their eyes were working faster than Alexis's.

Alexis: "It'll makes things easier on everyone."

They all begin heading for base.

Roy: "But uh..."

Spencer: "Denton?"

Denton: "I'll explain."

Isabel: "Looks like we're in for a story."'

Everyone heads for base...
