Awkward Justice

Chapter 4

Reinforcements

(A/N: Chapter 4, real quick, I'm changing the accent of Sync's device to Arabian, my friend said it would fit him more, let me know what you guys think.)

Sync stared down the swords woman before him, he got back up to his feet.

(Damn, reinforcements, that's just what we need.) Sync got ready. Arietta glared at the pint sized knight before her.

"How dare hurt my friend." Arietta said.

"Alright, this is has far as you go, surrender now and come with us quietly." Signum said.

"Heh, yeah right, you think we'll give in that easily?" Sync said with a smirk.

"Don't make us have to take you by force." Vita said tapping Eisen on her shoulder. Teana suddenly noticed the liger coming from the building it crashed into, she pointed her weapons at it.

"Were not giving up so easily." Arietta said getting ready.

"Hmph, fine, Eisen." Vita ordered.

(Magischen Gefängnis.) Sync and Arietta looked around as a barrier engulfed the area they were in.

"Then we'll have just have to take you back unconscious." Vita said.

"Hmph, bring it." Sync said. He jumped at Signum and threw a kick at her, she jumped back and swung her sword at him, he deflected it off with his fist, Subaru jumped over Signum and threw a punch at him, he jumped back as her attack hit the ground, he jumped over her and drop kicked Signum, she parried his attack and threw him off sending him airborne, Subaru came up behind him on her wing road throwing a punch at him, he turned himself in midair and blocked her off, he landed back on the ground, Signum came up behind and swung her blade down on him while Subaru came up throwing another punch, her weapon clashed with Signum's, Sync had disappeared.

"Where did he?" Subaru said. The ground beneath them started cracking, Signum and Subaru freaked.

(Stone Dragon Ascent.) The girls quickly jumped back as Sync shot from the ground, magical earth energy surrounding him, they landed and got ready.

"Heh, your pretty good, I haven't challenged someone like you in awhile." Signum said with a smirk.

"So are you, for someone who's holding back." Sync said getting ready. Subaru was dumbfounded.

"Wait what, lieutenant you've been holding back this whole time?"

"Yeah, but no more." Laevantein loaded a cartridge and burst into flames.

"Shiden Issen!" Signum shot at Sync. Sync jumped back and put his arms in front of him.

(Cyclone Blaze.) Fire surrounded him and clashed with Signum. Their attacks exploded on impact. Subaru covered her face from the explosion. Sync and Signum landed and got ready again.

(Schwalbe Fligen.) Vita shot several silver balls at Arietta. She summoned dark purple daggers and countered her attack. Vita came through the smoke and attacked her. Arietta quickly jumped back and summoned more daggers. Vita just smacked them away.

"Eisen!" She ordered.

(Explosion! Raketen Form!) Vita shot at Arietta.

(Barrier.) A dark purple shield came in front of Arietta. Vita slammed Eisen into it. Arietta felt herself being pushed from the attack.

(Damn, dealing with close range fighters is not something I can do effectively, I need to think of a different plan, maybe I can activate another Overlimit, that should at least get her off me.) Arietta closed her eyes and focused. The eyes of her doll glowed.

(Overlimit.) Energy surged through her. Vita felt her energy spike. Arietta released her energy and blew Vita away.

"Waaah!" Vita regained her balance, she could see energy surrounding her.

"What the?" Vita said.

"Now I'll show how strong I' am!" Arietta said. A fonic glyph opened below her, dark energy started charging in her.

(Mystic Arte.) Her doll glowed dark pinkish color. She pointed her doll at Vita, it started charging in energy.

"This is it!" (Evil Light.) A dark energy blast shot from doll toward Vita.

"Eisen!" (Panzer Hindernis.) Arietta's attack hit Vita's barrier. The attack was actually not strong enough to push Vita. The attack died out having no ill effect on the barrier. Vita thought that seemed rather odd. As the smoke died out Vita saw Arietta on hers knees painting heavily, her face was pale and looked like she would collapse any second.

"Woah, what the hell, she suddenly doesn't look so good, there's no way she already reached her limit from that one attack." Vita said. The liger suddenly jumped in front of Arietta, it wrapped its whiskers around her and gave her an energy boost, Arietta got back to her feet.

"Thank you." She said petting the liger.

"Grrr, Lanster I thought you were dealing with that thing!?" Vita said irritated.

"I was, but it suddenly jumped away to her." Teana said running up next to Vita.

"Whatever, lets hurry and take them out." Vita said. The liger suddenly shot a bolt of lighting from its mouth. (Panzer Hindernis.) It hit Vita's barrier. Arietta started charging a spell.

"Hammer of light." (Limited.) Light energy charged above them, Vita pushed her barrier against the liger's attack and tackled Teana out of the way as the pillar of light struck where they stood. They got ready.

"Think you could give me a heads up when your gonna tackle me." Teana said.

"Oh shut up and suck it up." Vita got Eisen ready. Arietta and her liger got ready.

Sync was midair on a fonic platform trying to dodge Signum's schlange while at the same time blocking Subaru's attacks from her wing road.

"Damn, how can he manage this." Subaru said to herself. She shot back at Sync and attacked, he blocked off her attack and kicked off her as Laevantein swooped by, he landed back on her platform, he quickly stepped to the side as Laevantein nearly missed him, Laevantein started circling around Sync, he then realized it was trapping him in.

"Damn, not good." Sync said.

"Nakajima, now!" Signum ordered.

"I'm on it!" She loaded three cartridges.

"Revolver SHOOT!" She shot a powerful air current at Sync as Laevantein's tip came down on him, Sync just smirked as his gauntlet device shined. (Gale Speed.) Sync disappeared. Subaru and Signum were shocked. He popped up in Signum's face surprising her.

"Aiming for me?" He said with a smirk.

"Ah, sub commander!" Subaru freaked. Sync threw a punch at Signum, she brought up her sheath and blocked him, his attack sent her flying to the ground, she skidded to a stop and glared up at him, he charged at her and threw a flying side kick at her, her sheath disappeared. (Schwert Form.) Laevantein reverted and she pulled it back. (Explosion!) Laevantein exploded in flames, she swung her sword at Sync and clashed with him. Sync felt a sudden sharp pain go through his leg, Signum threw him off, as he landed he fell to one knee, his right leg was jammed from the clash. He tried standing back up, he winced in pain and fell back down.

"Damn." He said. Laevantein cooled down and ejected the used cartridge, Subaru rolled up from behind Sync. Signum pointed her sword at him.

"This, is the end, you will surrender with no resistance." She threatened. Sync growled in annoyance.

Vita and Teana had just gotten done with binding Arietta and her liger.

"Well, that went by smoothly." Vita said. (Ja.) Eisen agreed.

"Whew, thanks for your help Cross Mirage." Teana said. (Your Welcome.)

"And by the looks of it Signum and Subaru took care of their fight." Vita said.

(Vita, its Signum, I contacted HQ, they're sending a transport chopper this way for the girls monster, they told us to stay together and wait for their arrival.) Signum said.

(Again with the waiting, uggh, alright.) Vita said in a little annoyance.

Subaru and Signum finished binding Sync.

"Alright, good job today Mach Caliber." Subaru said. (Thank You.) Sync just sat there in mild annoyance.

(Sync, what happened?)

(Ah, Regret.) Sync knew that was trouble.

(Did you underestimate your opponent, you and Arietta are both captured.) Regret said, she sounded pissed.

(Hey its more complicated then that.) Sync said.

(Nevermind, I'm going to break the barrier, when I do break the binds and get your self Arietta out of there.)

(What, where are you?)

(The outskirts of the city, I can see the barrier from here, get yourself ready.)

(Right.)

On the outskirts of the city, on a nearby cliff top, Regret stood ready with her guns out.

"I can't believe Sync got caught up in this mess, Pain, Agony, get set." She ordered her guns. (Yes Mistress.) They spoke in an English accent. Regret aimed her right gun, Pain, up at the barrier.

(Rage Laser, Barrel Extension.) Two energy charge coils opened up from the side of Pain, a fonic seal appeared in front of Regret and started charging energy in Pain.

Signum suddenly felt the huge energy spike but didn't know where it was coming from.

"Um, sub commander, something wrong?" Subaru asked. Pain finished charging.

"Fire, Rage Laser Destruction Breaker!" Regret ordered. (Fire!) An abnormal sized beam shot toward the barrier and hit it directly, it broke through on contact, everyone saw the beam break through the barrier with ease.

"What the!?" Subaru freaked. The beam flew past her and Signum. (Overlimit.) Sync's device said. He blew the binds off him and Subaru and Signum were knocked back.

"AAGH!" Subaru regained her balance as did Signum. Sync ignoring the pain in his leg forced his selfup. (Gale Speed.) Sync disappeared. That surprised Signum and Subaru. Sync popped up at Vita and Teana's location, he knocked the surprised mages away and quickly grabbed Arietta, Teana shot a recoil shot at him, he punched it away and disappeared.

"Ah, wait!" Vita yelled. She noticed something from the sky come falling down, several lances of light came falling down on them.

"Heads up!" She shouted. She and Teana quickly evaded the magic attack dropping on them.

"Where did that come from?" Teana said.

(Vita, Teana are you alright?) Signum asked.

(Yeah, were fine but our prisoners got away.) Vita said.

(Yeah, it seems an ally of theirs was lying in wait somewhere, I can't feel them anymore, it seems they got away.) Signum said. (For now lets head back to Section six and explain what happened.)

"Right, Lanster, and Nakajima, you too as well." Vita said.

"Right, we'll follow shortly." Teana said. "You go ahead sub commander."

"Alright don't be late." Vita took off as Signum flew by. Subaru skated up to Teana.

"Hey." She said.

"Hey." Teana said. They released their barrier jackets and devices.

"So much for our day off." Subaru said with a sigh.

"Yeah. Oh well, come on lets head back." Teana said. Subaru nodded and followed Teana. She was really hoping shed get some time to spend with Teana.

(A/N: Finally done, sorry this took so long to post, got distracted and forgot about, I'll work on the next chapter as soon as I can. R&R, Thanks.)
