Ugh... why the hell does this always happen? Thought a pained Alexis as she groaned, trying to move away from the boulder, to no avail. Though her force field had absorbed most of the impact, some momentum still carried through, causing quite a bit of pain but not harming her otherwise. Quickly growing exasperated by her inability to move away or push off the boulder pinning her to the ground, the blonde girl had half a mind to either blast it away or blow it up with her remaining spare power cell, but before she had to resort to that, someone ran over to help her out.
"Yeah, of course I'm fine!" The tech wizard cried out defensively as she shoved aside the smaller stone that now covered her, comparatively less heavy and easier to handle than the whole giant rock that she had been hit with. Now finding herself free, she looked at Stella and took a deep breath. "I... sorry. Thanks for helping." She mumbled afterwards, looking at the ground for a moment before shaking her head. This isn't the time to feel blue!
Looking back, she saw a battle already raging. Casimir had just struck one of the stone monsters' heads, causing it to stumble back slightly and creating several cracks in its head, though it didn't seem to cause any more damage; Amir, meanwhile was using magic to keep the other in check, and-
"What the HELL?!" Alexis shouted as she saw Elle of all people, someone who hadn't even headed down with the rest of the crew, pulled out not just a rocket launcher, but a quadruple rocket launcher, and shot it at one of the two monsters. Nearly panicking, the blonde girl extended her hands towards her two teammates, pulling them back towards her right before the rockets struck, sparing them from the explosion.
Stopping her traction modules just before Amir and Casimir crashed into her, Alexis turned to glare at Elle. "Shooting four god damn rockets into a tight hallway where two of your teammates are fighting, really?! Did you lose your freaking marbles?!" She shouted, before turning back to the hallway as she saw something flying towards her. As it turned out, Elle's rockets, while not incredibly effective, did succeed in dislodging part of the chained creature's arm from the rest of its body... a chance that its teammate took to kick the stone towards the Young Bloods, aiming to score four kills instead of one.
Oh, hell no. Thought Alexis as she reared back her hand, the orb on the palm of her gauntlet beginning to glow brightly. Before the boulder hit, she sent her arm forward, her gauntlet sending out a powerful wave of repulsion just as it touched the boulder, causing it to shatter into hundreds of tinier rocks which pelted the group harmlessly.
"Yeah!" The blonde girl cried out in triumph, though after a moment she noticed the beeping noise in her head and the blinking icon of an empty juice box at the corner of her view, courtesy of her (now badly cracked) visor. "Wait... shit." She mumbled, attempting to use some of her right gauntlet's functions, only for it to fail miserably to do anything.
"Uh..." The tech heroine looked up at the looming rock creatures and gulped.
