Of course, with Hunters not being as durable as their Guardian variants, the one affected by telekinesis is roughly handled, its neck snapping off from the force of impact and the body itself breaking apart immediately into a mess of junk and limbs. Zero briefly turns around when he hears this before looking forward again and giving a measured nod to the newcomer.

The hapless shooter that assaulted Desco is met with the shine of a million slices over a large area, its form lifting up into the air ever so slightly in staggered reaction to the unrelenting onslaught, before it falls to the ground in a shower of minutely-sliced metal. The spectacle is certainly a sight to see, despite it being used against only one enemy. Oh, wait, it caught the one trying to kill itself attack Zero, so that's two down.

The new group nearby is another formation, this time of four Guardians and four Hunters. The Hunters in the back ready themselves to fire, two aimed at Shepard and the other two aiming towards Desco and Zero. The Guardians advance, their electric rods readied in the air while they advance forward with similar targeting.

The Reploid glances behind him once more to observe the girl he's standing guard near. Her injured state continues to bother him, though he's not entirely certain why right now. All he knows is a mixed feeling of wanting to get her out of here and wanting to terminate the robots. Of course, he's done the latter before, but this time it feels different somehow, an anger rising under his self-control.

He fires off a few more rounds to halt the Guardians moving toward Shepard after he refocuses. By that point the Hunters are already firing, a crossfire beginning to emerge on the street. "We have an injured here, we can't stay for long!" Zero shouts over to the one not so interested in having pure iron being a balanced part of their diet. He charges his Buster Shot as he does so, his eyes rapidly skimming through the battlefield to set his sights on his next target.
