Devastation
Edgar fired off a clip from his crossbow than tossed it aside. He knew his sword would have been better, but he didn't want to be swarmed so early in battle. Drawing his sword and attacking the closest solder, he shouted "There's too many of them."
Terra, from somewhere in the chamber, called out "I heard fighting from the guard station."
Meanwhile...
Shadow ran down the tunnel towards the fighting. "I thought there were less guards in the station than who I saw in the tunnels," Shadow called to Cyan. He burst into the chamber and immediately stabbed a solder in the back. Cyan leaped into battle and immediately preformed Quadra slam, removing four solders from the fighting. Cyan saw a white ball burst from a patch of solders who had just fallen into a pit that had just opened. He began forcing the solders towards it, while signaling for Terra to do the same. Mog began dancing again, and chunks of the cavern fell onto the solders and blocking the passages from the cavern. He jumped up and bounced off a solder's helmet towards the back of the cave and the shadow making it's way to the back of the cave.
Meanwhile...
Setzer looked back at the group. "It's no good, This tunnel's blocked. We'll have to go around the long way. I just hope we get to them in time."
Back at the chamber...
Shadow reached the door just as a white ball bounced near his feet. "I'm here to help, Kupo." Shadow looked back at the fighting then turned back to Mog, "Alright. Their boss should be in here." Shadow pushed open the door and found another battle raging on. "So that's where the prisoners went," Shadow said smiling, "Mog, help the prisoners, I'm going after their leader." Shadow quickly spotted the leader, his blood-red uniform standing out against the dark brown walls. Shadow placed a hand around his mouth and placed his dagger to the man's throat and whispered, "I am the angel of death, no one stops me, solders, royalty and even gods fall before me, and unfortunately, You must die." Shadow slid the dagger quickly and looked at the corpse, "And that was for my friends." He turned back to the prisoners and lead them back to the fight.
Back in the main chamber...
Cyan was knocked back against a switch and a hole in the roof opened, the sunlight reflecting off Cyan's blade, blinding his foe. Cyan lunged, his sword burying itself deep into his opponents chest. He looked around and smiled. The last of the prisoners were being herded out of the chamber by Shadow and Mog, Terra and Sabin were finishing off the solders and Edgar was setting the explosives beneath the capsule. He turned and ran towards the exit.
A little while later...
Relm rushed towards the chamber alone, the others going back to get the Falcon ready for take-off. She was nearly trampled by a large group of prisoners followed by Mog and Shadow. "Shadow, we have to stop Edgar from setting the explosives," Relm started to say. "Relm, we don't have time for this," Shadow said, seeing the others run past, "And we have to go now," he pulled her behind him, ignoring her cries.
A little while later, an explosion rocked the remains of the tower, flames leaping into the air, and a capsule fling in the air, burst open, revealing a large, bronze machine, the Mechanos Angel.
