If Ariel didn't know any better she'd say those soldiers were mocking her, as if they somehow knew once these people hit the water she would have no choice but to take their lives for the Sea Witch. Hardly being able to stand it she went after the people who fell in the water and started dragging them down through the surface below to be stabbed. Black ink tendrils spread forth from the deepest parts of the ocean and came closer to claim their souls and create more beings unable to move on to the next life that would do her bidding. Just like Ariel.

For a moment, Sparda considered diving in after the retreating soldiers, flushing them out of their hiding places the hard way; but he knew that was exactly what they wanted him to try.
He took a step back and rethought his position. These power nullifiers, wherever they were, were reducing him to this pitiful state - and were it not for them, he'd have already torn this army apart single-handed. A glance down into the streets below had made him aware of the mutated horrors roaming the streets, clad in ragged remnants of Vulture armour - these soldiers transforming into monsters when they died made the situation even more difficult without his powers.
Scowling in irritation, Sparda backed down from the challenge presented by this squad. He'd let them be for the time being, instead electing to disappear in a dash up to the castle. This way, he had some elevation with which to scout out the null field generators, and the advancing soldiers would have to get through him on their way to the Queen anyway.
He only hoped he reached some of the other defenders in time to hatch a plan before this seemingly unstoppable army burned all of Hallowton to the ground. |

The generators were spread out through Hallowton sixteen in total, each one hidden carefully inside a building either behind a wall or under a floorboard making them difficult to find and spot from the air. The large space covered by the energy fields made it difficult for one spot their exact location and each generator was protected by a powerful energy shield that could take a pounding if hit and would instantly alert the nearby hidden infantries to he one trying to take it out.
Vulture looked at Arix advance to his army from the visuals in front of his chair with a smile on his face as TROLOL was still being blasted through the speakers adding insult to Hallowton already severed injuries. The Rockstar would be met by one of the M1 tanks still present in the city as it fired its main gun while at the same time unloading a total of three missiles from the top of the tank to take him down. As this was going on the undead were replenishing Vulture's losses through the Hallowton citizens themselves, now setting them on their own town as they were nothing more but walking corpses mutating into horrible abominations.
"Ayen, your powers are from a mutation of the human genome so your abilities should be just fine. Is it possible for you to create a telepathic link between us and the enemy, let us know what their next move is going to be?"
Ayen was caught off guard by the question. The most he has done with his telepathic abilities up to this point were read thoughts of people who were thinking them on the moment. He hasn't even fully examined a person's mind yet and she wanted him to do something as complicated as forming a telepathic link between them and the enemy?
“I-I've never done anything like that. I don't think I can.” |

The bait worked perfectly. The squad commander moved his team back outside where they continued to advance toward the castle. One team lagged behind just enough to cover the flank while the frontal power armor team took up both heavy gunners in order to put up a quick flak line. They were drawing nearer to Arix, the only reason they didn't attack was because of the tank.
Meanwhile, the shield units moved into positions mowing down a few defenders that stood in their way on their hike to the Castle which was becoming ever larger with every foot step.
The final two snipers set up opposite of one another. One was trying to track Raal to take him out, but he only had enough time to follow him. The other one waited for Sparda to stop before firing.

In Arix's head this song began to play: The God who fell from EarthHis blades came to action before too long. There was a group of infected bastards sprinting head long into their own demise. Mutated or not, his blade was unmatched by the living, no undead being would challenge him so easily. In one sweeping moment he beheaded three of them in a slash that went from his left shoulder to right hip in direction. Finishing this rotation his second sword came swinging straight up cutting the next one from crotch to top of his head where the two halves would fall on either side of him. He continued walking forward without a change in stride. Arix noticed the glint of light burst straight past him as he moved forward toward the Power Armor squad that had exited the buildings. But before... He threw his left sword straight up and raised his arm. The tank shot hit and blew a thick layer of dust all around him. Then missiles homed in and all exploded on different sides of the smoke cloud. It stayed silent and Arix changed the track in his head, "FUCK YOU!". His sword landed in his hand and his body propelled itself from the smoke at lightning speeds at the tank. He charged the energies in both of his weapons as he jumped for the final blow. "I WANNA SEE YOU CRY BITCH!" |

Something was off. Very off. He thought he saw a glint of metal in the distance, hiding in one of the buildings. Fuck! He figured out what that metallic flash was, and they had to go! The psychic demon abruptly changed direction, not slowing down in momentum at all. He was going after the snipers.
Raal remembered something about the soldiers. He had watched some of their corpses get up and morph into something more hideous. What if he didn't kill the snipers? They couldn't mutate if they weren't dead, but they couldn't do harm if they were unconscious. Plus he could break their guns!
The demon bounded on swift feet, intent on knocking the snipers out cold and breaking their weapons to pieces. He was still making himself an impossible target to hit just by leaping. The chemical cocktail located in the barbs on his tail would be more than enough to both pacify and knock out the snipers. He had learned that if snipers were to be left alone long enough, they could be a big tide-turner in any war.
Not this time. |

Yuna nodded in acknowledgement to Lori and then climbed back up on Valefor's back, taking off into the air to begin looking for the generators. Soaring through the air looking down at the conflict before her eyes followed the energy field that made up most of the city now, but for the life of her she couldn't find the generators anywhere meaning they were most likely hidden inside the various buildings that were still standing and she would have to go in for a closer look. Before doing so, Yuna's eyes Glared towards the blimp in the sky and she turned Valefor to it unleashing a burst of energy blowing out the speakers and putting a much needed end to the song and Vulture's loud obnoxious chewing.

Saturn neither liked nor disliked Lori, she simply didn't trust her and the lies only reassured that distrust but she could respect the girl for stepping up to protect her home.
"I will not allow so much as a scratch."
The Soldier of Silence positioned herself around the healing children and Ayen, keeping her eyes and ears peeled and her Silence Glaive at the ready in case any of the attacking forces made their way here and attacked.

I will not allow so much as a scratch. "Thank you."
I-I've never done anything like that. I don't think I can. "I know." Lori placed her hands on his cheeks. "I know. But I need you to try. Please, just try."

Vulture watched as the new arrival cut through hoards of powerful abominations with no struggle to speak of and fought off the tank's fire just as easily, obviously not affected by the generators as he came down to finish off the tank but it managed to teleport just before Arix could hit the ground allowing the armored team a chance to strike before the tank reappeared behind the warrior. But the tank would be told to fall back lest the soldiers inside never wanted to see their loved ones again. The smile on Vulture's face faded away completely and the song was turned off, the energy blast that came their way was blocked by the blimp's energy shields and they fired off a heat seeking missile at Yuna in retaliation as the General brought a radio up to his lips.
“Wake up, you have work to do.”
Meanwhile, Ayen closed his eyes and focused his energy as he tuned out the mayhem erupting all around them. To his own surprise he was successful in establishing a telepathic link with the Crimson Vulture just in time to see what their next move was. The hairs on the back of his neck standing up as a terrible shiver shot up and down his spine as he couldn't even move due to the images appearing in his head of what he was looking at.
“W-what the fuck is that!?” |

Over the radio back to Vulture only mummbling a couple, "Fuck off."'s were heard. The guy exited the side of his container truck and stretched yawning loudly with his fists up in the air on his toes. Most of the soldiers probably didn't take him serious at all, the Vulture had called him Plan B. He walked around the side of the truck and pulled himself into the bay of it and closed the steel door behind him. After a few minutes steam began bellowing from the exhaustion pipes. --- The power armor teams became one again and they circled to Arix's back. On his command they readied their weapons. --- The shield team came within sight of the castle. All they had to do was capture this point and confirm the death of the queen, even capture her heir. Even better they could set up within the castle and assault from a different angle completely quickly reshaping the battlefield. --- With weapons raised chest level they aimed their javelin hookshots at Arix, these weapons came in handy for taking down any kind of demon no matter what it was. "Ready! F-" "Hold your fire," a knight of some kind, he held a massive weapon, but it didn't have a single hole to fire any type of projectile. He stopped in the middle of the lane staring at Arix now, "Hold your fire unless you want to be murdered profusely." |

Lucky for the tank as his sword hit the ground it was clear that he would of lanced it perfectly in half by the kind of slash that was left trailing a good 12 feet from the tip of his sword. He had unleashed a jumping finish of his sword style, something that could cut through any surface if it dared.
When he stood straight up and turned he was looking at a execution team. But he just stood there tilting both swords outward and shrugged at them, "Alright, if this is how you want to die."
After a second he heard someone halt them. His eyes averted down lane at the approaching knight. A smile curled on his face.

Yuna flew underneath the missile, watching it start to turn back around to return to her but Valefor set it off prematurely with another blast of its energy, the missile itself being too far above the city to cause any damage to Hallowton before the High Summoner flew down lower in-between the buildings to search for the whereabouts of the generators. Catching one at the far corner on the bottom floor of a house Yuna caused it to explode with a single energy blast and was quick to fly back up into the sky when the infantry nearby caught wind of them.

The music stopped and Saturn could sense a disturbance nearby as she stayed where she was in front of the others. It was a sensation that hit her body every time something big went down. It was what she felt before Pharaoh 90 launched its attack against her solar system and it's what she felt that awoke her from her slumber just seconds before the city itself was attacked. The music stopping and Ayen's sudden freak out only reaffirmed the Soldier of Silence's belief that something big was about to go down elsewhere in the city, and she would be ready should it spread over here.

W-what the fuck is that!? "What? What is it?" Lori looked at Ayen with deep concern in her dark brown eyes. Ayen was seeing something no doubt terrible and only made the Princess recently turned Queen more anxious when he wouldn't come right out with what it was. "What do you see?"
