"Damn these things are getting worse every time we fight," Priss called from under her helmet. NeNe said back into her comlink, "That's why we have Sylia update our suits so often."
Priss dodged a boomer's arm and grabbed it, jabbing her hand into a joint. Bullets blasted from her hand into the arm, severing it from the boomer's body. The sensors inside her blue helmet surveyed and reported the damage back although the boomer robot wasn't dead yet.
"Aagh!" NeNe screamed. A tentacle from the monster wrapped itself around her waist. Electric currents shot through her suit. There was a minimal amount of damage the suits could sustain. Nene fought to get it off but the electric wires wouldn't let go by her will alone.
*BOOM* The tentacles let go as Priss killed the thing by taking out his source of battery power. "Thanks Priss," NeNe fell to her knees. She didn't have time to recover before another boomer was on her tail. NeNe took off running, turning around to see where it was.
"Take that," NeNe blasted at it with her suit. The boomer dodged coming at her. NeNe slipped under him before he could smash her into the ground. NeNe jumped, taking flight. The boomer followed behind her.
"Linna go left around NeNe and take out her tail," Sylia said into the mics. "I'm busy here Sylia," Linna was dodging her own monster, using her specialized electrodes in her helmet to electrocute it.
NeNe landed on the next building over from where the fight had started. The boomer landed in front of her, looming, an ancient enemy and terrifying. There was the click and clatter of robotic sounds as it prepared to kill her.
"You don't want to kill a beautiful girl like me do you?" NeNe pleaded. Beneath her suit, her eyes were wide with fright. Nowhere to go and everyone was too busy to rescue her. She had to do something and fast.but what?
It brought it's claws out ramming them toward her, extending the deadly metal forceps of its arm. NeNe shrieked, one arm coming up to block its attack. *WHOOM*. An explosion sound much larger than Priss could ever do destroyed the boomer as a huge torpedo hit it.
When the smoke cleared, a yellow mecha robot flashed the victory sign. In it's other hand, was a bazooka. She recognized that Mechabot. Mackie had entered the fight to help.
"Mackie thanks!" NeNe waved. "My hero again!" She was all smiles as she looked at him.
Mackie said, "No problem NeNe." His voice was tinny through the microphone but she understood him well enough.
NeNe flew back over and helped Linna double team her boomer. Linna was grappling with it, the electrodes having not successfully destroyed it.
"Let her go," NeNe dropkicked the boomer in the head. The heel of her metal boot slammed into the side of its face gauging a shriek of metal but it only maimed and did not kill the boomer. It let go of Linna turning to NeNe, red robotic eyes whirling with precise deadly targeting.
Priss threw her boomer over her head, tossing it into a wall. She twisted her body, aligning the sights and shot the boomer's main electrode. The light in the boomer's eyes died instantly, the metal form crumpling to the ground.
Sylia's boomer was already down, her hand holding up the power box from its circuits. She had ripped it out of the boomer.
"Don't chase me!" NeNe ran away from the boomer. Linna was behind the boomer, sending bullets at it. They sprayed with accuracy towards the robot.
"Don't shoot me Linna!" NeNe dodged as bullets went by the boomer and headed at her.
"Then get out of the way NeNe!" Linna shouted into the microphone angrily. This was HER fight.
~What do I have an easy target sign over my head or something?~ NeNe tried to run faster away from the monstrous machine. They always seemed to find her the fun chase. Maybe Priss and Linna were right. She WAS slow because she didn't exercise as she should.
~End of the line.~ She spotted the ledge of the roof coming up. Her sensors went crazy encouraging the rocket booster be used but she didn't want to do that just yet. She spied the ledge just over the side. She leaped. The boomer leaped behind her.
At the last minute, NeNe grabbed the ledge and nearly pulled her arm out of her socket. Biting searing pain exploded through her arm as it grappled for a hold on the ledge and caught. The boomer didn't turn or stop in time to hit the wall on the opposite side. Linna let loose a barrage of explosives killing the boomer.
"Ow ow ow ow," NeNe's shoulder was in deep pain. She wanted to cry out and get rid of it but if she let go she'd fall to the ground below. "Could someone help me please?" she asked timidly and with pain.
Linna hauled her back up on the rooftop, not easily either. Nene and her suit together were heavy. "Owch," NeNe held her arm close, collapsing next to the edge of the wall she leaped over. Her shoulder muscle felt like jello.
"That was similar to an old model I saw once, but it looked upgraded," Sylia stared down at her kill. "NeNe, research this tomorrow." She paused and looked over. "Nene are you alright?"
"Sure," NeNe nodded to both. Then she winced because it hurt her shoulder, when she moved her head. "Can we go now?" she asked plainly not wanting to worry everyone.
"Yes, when we get back, Mackie will take a look at your injury." Sylia was calm as she and Priss helped NeNe up.
* * *
"Woah you did some damage," Mackie looked at her shoulder. It was beginning to swell, the skin discoloring slightly. "You shouldn't have grabbed the ledge like that. Why didn't you use the rocket booster?"
"It hurts alot," NeNe admitted touching it with gentle fingers, wincing. "I didn't want to lose some power. You know the rocket boosts take up a lot of energy.. Owch!" She moved her arm accidentally, pain flashing in her eyes.
"Well don't touch it," Mackie laughed, "I'll bind it up for you." He went over to the medicine cabinet and began to rummage through the first aid stuff Sylia kept around for emergencies. There were a lot of things too as this room was similar to a small hospital room.
"Uhmm..." NeNe had pulled down her uniform a bit but underneath... she blushed. "Couldn't Priss do it?" she asked. She didn't want Mackie to see her undressed. And that would be required if he did this.
"What?" Mackie turned around holding some bandages. "Oh.." he turned red, then grinned, "Hey it's not like I haven't seen you before. You weren't so shy last August when that terrorist almost blew up the Police Building."
"You were looking?" NeNe turned red with embarrassment. "I threw that shirt over your screens!" Her mind tried to recall exactly what happened. She remembered taking off her shirt and tossing it over his screens before he could get a full look at her. Suddenly she blushed. He may have gotten just a peek at her bra.
Priss had been walking past in the hall. The door to the medic room was slightly open and she heard Nene and Mackie inside. She went over to see how NeNe was doing and paused as she heard what they were speaking of. Her eyes widened hearing this conversation. She scooted closer to the wall, listening in. One eye peeped in to see what they were doing.
"Not when you first started undressing," Mackie laughed, "You were really impatient to put on your suit and I saw you," this is teased. NeNe stuck her tongue out at him.
"You weren't supposed to look!" she yelled at him, cheeks blushing at the thought of what he saw.
"I'm a guy. We always look. You had a nice pink bra on." Mackie teased, "Now come on let me bind your arm up. It won't be anything I hadn't seen before."
"No way!" NeNe shook her head, "You would look again. Get Priss." She could be stubborn if she wanted to be.
"I promise I won't look," Mackie winked gleefully at her. He was still teasing. NeNe shook her head, "You pervert." Still he wasn't going to get Priss and she needed her shoulder taken care of.
NeNe carefully pulled only her arm out of the spandex suit she wore beneath her hardsuit. It hurt like hell to do it, but she wasn't about to let Mackie get a look at her again. She eased her arm out, nearly ready to shriek at the pain. Only when it was safely out did she let it dangle at her side. "Okay."
"Chicken," Mackie teased as he began to unroll the bandages for her.
~Very interesting~ Priss noted. She never thought those two were close. She watched Mackie bind NeNe's shoulder. When Mackie wasn't looking, NeNe smiled down at the top of his head. She had a very soft look on her face.
~Oh my gosh..could those two??~ Priss's eyes widened. She stepped away, going back down the hall to the community room. She was thinking so hard, she almost ran into the tree, but managed to swerve and avoid it in time.
"Priss?" Linna looked at the young singer. She wasn't usually this occupied in her thoughts. Linna looked up from her book to watch Priss enter the room.
"Linna," Priss's eyes lit up. "You have to help me do something." Her tone held a bit of mystery and the hint of an idea that would change a lot of things.
Linna gave her a curious look, interested.
* * *
"You want to what?" Linna blinked. She wasn't sure she heard Priss right.
"I think they may have something going on between them," Priss smiled, "What if we were to get them together? NeNe is always talking about getting a boyfriend." She sat across from Linna on the couch after explaining her idea of matchmaking.
"Why do you want to do this Priss?" Linna asked. She looked at Priss suspiciously from the corner of her eyes. It wasn't like Priss to want to help matchmake or even try to make a romantic "something" out of anything.
"Huh?" Priss reddened. She suddenly looked uncomfortable about the questioning.
"You're not exactly the meddling type." Linna pointed out, "That's NeNe's job."
"I know," Priss looked guilty, "But I still haven't paid NeNe back for that ticket she gave me. My insurance went sky high. So this is a bit of revenge. She'll go crazy wondering who it is that likes her."
"I don't know," Linna shook her head, "What if they end up hating each other? Then what?"
"I promise it will work," Priss smiled confidently, "Just watch them and you'll see it too. And I'll throw in dinner if you cooperate."
"Hm..." Linna put a finger to the side of her head thinking. Free dinner, very tempting. "All I have to do is deliver the stuff right?"
"Right," Priss nodded.
"Okay you have a deal." Linna stuck out her hand. Priss shook it.
"What's a deal?" Sylia walked in wearing an expensive looking black dress. It molded to her curves invitingly. She looked like she was going out for a night on the town. A silver necklace shone like spun moonlight upon her throat.
"Nothing," Priss smiled a sweat drop forming on her brow. No need for Sylia to know their plans involving her brother.
"Man I'm starved," Mackie came in tossing his black hair back, "What's for dinner sis?"
"Damn these things are getting worse every time we fight," Priss called from under her helmet. NeNe said back into her comlink, "That's why we have Sylia update our suits so often."
Priss dodged a boomer's arm and grabbed it, jabbing her hand into a joint. Bullets blasted from her hand into the arm, severing it from the boomer's body. The sensors inside her blue helmet surveyed and reported the damage back although the boomer robot wasn't dead yet.
