He was forced to dodge off course as gun fire rang out. All the Players on staff were able to regroup and were now using suppressing fire to cover the fleeing reps. Once they were clear, they made their way downstairs. That was for the best. I really did not think that they were going to be much help. The goon had been through enough torment. I let him die this time. With him now dead, the members of the safehouse looked at the intruders. Their weapons were trained on them. "Cease your fighting at once. Any further violence against the Sonic Clan or their guests will not be tolerated." the PEP unit in the center ordered. 10-002 and 08-001 rushed them and sliced the cyborgs on either side of the leader in half. Blue blood and sparks scattered everywhere and pooled on the floor. 10-002 did not look happy. "We can't let anyone in this room go. Not even other PEP or AEP units." 08-001 smirked. "I don't want to, but you guys are traitors helping the humans now." 10-002 said with a big frown on his face. 10-001 finally finished the goon and got up from the ground. He dusted himself off.
I looked at 03-002 and Dylan. I was not leaving them behind. I looked at them and said "03-002, I am your bodyguard. I am getting you out of here alive. I promise you that." He just looked at the murderous AEP units and then at me. The distrust in his eyes was clear. I then looked at Dylan. "I was there when you were born. There is no way that I would leave you behind." He tried his best to look unconcerned. "Like I would let you leave me behind. I told you to stop teasing me." he said. I took them by the hands and we began to walk towards the exit. I knew that they were going to try to stop me. When 08-001 came at me with their limb blade, I blocked it with my sword. It was a massive bait and switch. 6835jEWL, 89Magic5y7y and 02u8underSeaQueen208 were playing their instruments to grant debuffs to the AEP units. Jesse had his gun out and was shooting at 10-002, but he could not get a clear shot on the agile cyborg. That was when Lady Fingers sidestepped next to us and drew her big black shotgun. She pointed it at 08-001's head at point-blank range and pulled the trigger.
Just from the sound alone, I could tell that it did massive damage. 08-001 was stunned and staggered back a few steps. I pushed 03-002 and Dylan ahead. "Run! Get the car running. I'll be behind you. As soon as I get in, we're out of here!" I yelled. They ran at full speed. 10-001 could not catch them both. He went after Dylan, but their organ made it easy to simply throw a small projectile in the toxic AEP's face. There was a small bang as it detonated and burned his face. It was a very small radioactive bomb. The pain caused him to stop and wipe his face. Dylan was able to escape. Now that they were safe, I could focus on more pressing matters. Namely, saving the human friendly Sonic Clan from destruction. Lady Fingers was now back to back with me. "Are you ready, magic man?" she asked with a smirk on her face. "As ready for this as I'll ever be." I answered. "You take the shorty with the swords. I get the guy with the brown speedo." she said looking at the enemies. "Sounds like a plan to me." I said. We then charged our mark. Holy light spiked down from the sky. 08-001 had to dodge.
Killing him would take a while. He had a lot of health, and he had a very versatile use of his nanites. I did not even look at the Sonic Clan. "Bunker down on the top floor. I need you guys to get to safety. We're going to handle this. If you guys die, the Advocates are doomed." 11-003 stepped from the table for the first time. "I've let all of you humans do too much. If these guys are going to kill PEP units, they are going to ruin everything we stand for." he said as he walked next to me. I did not care. He was the third one of his clan. If he died, there were 2 more AEP units. They could also make more of them when they wanted. 08-001 just unsheathed both of his swords and glared at us. "Fine. I'll take you both on." he said. The random Players decided it was their time to shine too. They went for 10-001. 13-001 looked at us and was angry. It seemed that he was upset that he was being left out. He looked at the retreating Sonic Clan and helped them get to safety. Once they were in, it was locked down. There was nothing else that he had to do. He just looked at me and said bye before teleporting.
