Cernia rubbed her head from the sudden speed in motion when they landed. "I almost had a heart attack from how fast we flew up... Hopefully we can wait for the others to- ...where's Nao? Nao?" Cernia immediately got up from the spot they landed in and started running to where Naolyn was, reaching her arm out once she realized where the telekenetic girl was.

"Nao, grab my hand!" She bent down near the hole and stuck out her arm towards Naolyn with haste. "I'm not letting you fall down into there!"

Yoon wasn't speaking, just grasping onto Xavier and tearing off parts of her dress to serve as tourniquets in the meantime. Even though she didn't speak and didn't seem as panicked as before, she was crying heavily.

"As long as that machine works, your buddies are under Axe's will. Consciously or not." Gryffin said to Jess. He recalled Nessa's screams from the machine and shuddered violently. "My guess is none of them are awake at this point from the lack of voices from there..."
==============

"What? The weird glowing stuff?" Celeste replied in a whisper. "Don't most machines do that?"
 
"Hello!" Chris greets.

He waves to the person he sees.

"Is this that Mother's place?"
 
The aftermath of the explosion, with the amount of smoke covers the fallen area. The machine once again disappeared using Dead Eye's ability. Nessa narrowed her eyes as she'd jumped around to debris to debris, making sure that Celeste was held on tight. nce again, the Machine appeared behind Ray, throwing in multiple slashes, one of them driving straight through Ray's torso. 

"Sorry, child. Your abilities doesn't have any affect one me! I have someone that can literally counter yours at every step!" Axe shouted. He'd continue to drive the blade in.

"See that?" Nessa said. "It seems that he can't do use the powers at once, he'd has to use it one at a time; thus he'd replied on his weapons when he goes for the attack. If we can get him on that moment.. we can use the chance to break those machines. Thus, we need an distraction that's where you come in. Get his attention and force him to go on the offensive. Once he's does, I'll break those tubes of his! I'm sure Ray.. will be fine. From what I see, he'd always seem to have those beans to self-heal."

============================

"Finished?" The man said. He'd looked over the other, whom emitting an mysterious "aura" was flowing over Daiman's body. 

"Yes. Although, he'll have this scar forever though. No amount of healing will fix this.." the other said.

"Good. It will serve him as a reminder of the true brute of malice that he'd faced."

"Shall we assist the other? They might not make it.." 

"No. They're actually doing better than I expected.. let's them finished the job. Let's be on our way.." The two disappeared in a instant.

 Daiman's hand began to move an inch.

=============================

"Hmm? Yes, this is Mother's place.." Raster said. "You're not looking for trouble, aren't ya?" He tipped his hat. "I'm willingly to fight if you're simply here to cause havoc for specials.."
 
Ray starts to chuckle as Axe's blade stops moving in to Ray. Ray says effected spiting out a little blood "No need to apologize old man. I had a feeling that you may had some counter." Ray's wounds start to heal.
 
Xavier looked down at the group fighting Axe, sighing.

"I just had to go and lose a leg back there, didn't I?"
 
Gio landed on the ground as well. He was angry.

"Fuck this." he grit his teeth. "I'm gonna burn Axe to a crisp!" Gio was ready to go back but he could barely stand up. His transformation earlier really took a toll on him.

----------------------------

Raimundo was floating up in the air and watching the fight go on.

"Damn, I gotta help out or something." he held out his hand and lifted up a chunk of debris. He threw it over at Axe in an attempt to get his attention.
 
Ryder noticed Cernia attempting to grab Naolyn and saw the struggle between them. He nodded to Tico who turned to a whip. He ran to Cernia's side and lashed the Tico-whip to wrap around Naolyn's chest. He steadily pulled her up with Cernia's help and managed to pull her out of the hole and onto solid ground. He looked over to Cernia and gave the two girls some space, knowing this was one of her best friends.


"She looks worn out." Ryder said. "We should give her a moment to breathe. She, as well as all of us, should be safe for now."

===========

Naolyn held onto Cernia's hand the whole time she was being pulled up. When she was safe, she gave Cernia a cocky smile, similar to Gio, and a thumbs up. She was still weak and uneasy but she sat up to catch her breath. When she felt a little more level headed, she rose to her feet and stared directly at Cernia, giving her a big smile. In that instant, she hugged Cernia without warning. 

"Oh Cernia! I'm so glad you're okay!" She said cheerfully. "Did they hurt you or anything?! I'll kick their ass if they did!"
 
Cernia looked surprised from the sudden hug, but returned it just as quickly, although she was careful not to hug too hard. "I'm alright, Nao. I'm just happy you're up here with us." She took in a deep breath in relief, fixing up Naolyn's messy hair and her eyes fell over the scar that was on her forehead. "... Just rest with us for now, okay?" Cernia looked genuinely concerned at all the blood that had been coming out of Naolyn's ears. "Don't push yourself any more for now. You're already worrying me sick anyway. If you could calm down Gio, that'd be good. I can't handle him when he's like that." She stuck out her tongue before flashing a peace sign at Ryder and Tico. "It's all good over here!"

Gryffin stood at the edge of the gaping hole watching for Celeste and Nessa. "There's so much rubble down there... Damnit! Axe played us like a damn fiddle!" He muttered.

Brick felt awkward having to stand on the roof with all the Busters, laying down Tomy on the ground. "That woman is a real mystery...." 


Yoon didn't say anything, tying the scraps of fabric around Xavier's bloody stumps. "You aren't a Special with Future Sight, so there's no helping that..." her voice was low. "D-do you think Daiman is still alive?...."

=================

"Ah, I got you. I'll have to be stealthy about it since he could probably gas me to death if he sees me coming too close..." Celeste bit her lower lip. "Alright, I'll go in." She transformed into a ferret and promptly stuck her body through broken pipings, hoping to weave into the rubble to stay unseen.

=================

"No, no! We don't wish to engage in any combat." Magness put his hands up. "We've come from the East coast of the US to find Mother. If you know her, then you must be a Special like us!" Magness smiled warmly. "I have been looking for her since my friend and I are a couple of wandering souls. He is looking for an old friend that may be with Mother." He gestured to Chris. "As for me, I believe I could put my abilities to use much more effectively. I only wish to heal, not open more wounds."
 
"Br-brick.." Tomy mumbled. "W-what's going on..?" Tomy tried to move. "I.. I'm hearing footsteps.. tons of them.."

===================

"Even you, have limits." The machine pulled the blade out of Ray by grabbing him on the head and toss him aside. "You will be-"

Before Axe can continued. A large debris of rock slammed onto the back of the machine. Nearly missing the tubes. Axe turns to see Nessa tossing them.

"Hey! Perhaps you should pay more attention instead of running that mouth off!" Nessa shouted. She'd toss more rocks towards him. 

"You.. you're one of the first to enter the machine..." Axe operated the machine to go forward, jumping from wall to wall downward with one leg. The machine disappeared as it was dashing towards Nessa.

There he goes.. it seems that he can't use two of those abilities at once..Celeste.. this is your chance! Nessa thought as she continue throwing many rocks towards the air as she can. The machine finally appeared in front of her, with the blade in the air. 


"Stay down!" Axe shouted as he swung the blade downwards.

====================

"..." Raster rubbed his chin. For a moment, he has his eyes closed. He'd opened them up and look at the duo. "Well then! That's a relief!" Raster said. "Well, if you're looking for Mother, I can take you there. Promise you won't be causing such a ruckus! And as for your friend, does he has a name?"
