Max prepare his starting position to attack Commander Stat. Stat brings out a growl sound since he's going to face a kid who is already finish High School.

"Minion do your best okay I will aid you if you go down." Claptrap said.

"Oh right then just make sure I distract him and you take out the beacon okay."

"Alright then let's do this." Claptrap said.

"Prepare to face my wrath of the weapon that I had." He then pulls the trigger of his weapon. Bullets spread out side to side at fast speed. Max was able to dodge them but for Claptrap.

"Ah crap whaaaaa" Claptrap was hit and launched 5 inches away from Max.

"Claptrap"

"Don't worry minion just keep distracting him."

"Ok then." Max then pulls out his Maliwan SMG shock weapon and fires at him while going around in circles at fast pace.

"Daaaaa you think your trick can do as much as this danmaku weapon." He then continues to fire his weapon. Max still fires his weapon and keeps going in circles dodging everything that he fire, until he stops running indicating that his skill is expire until later on.

"Welp it's time to bring out my favorite one." He brings out his Torgue pistol called the Unkempt Harold. "Can you handle this Commander." He then fires his weapon.

"Daaaa you little brat" Still firing his weapon doesn't know why but still Max able to dodge like always. "Stop moving this weapon is not supposed to dodge." But still he dodges.

"Then you should move Commander." Max taunted.

"Fine then active spell card." Then the commander pulls his spell card and puts it to his weapon the weapon change from the assault to a LMG.

"Ah crap." Max said.

"Feel the power of DANMAKU" Then fires his improved danmaku weapon. The bullets change from side to side to a spread shot like a shotgun. Max still dodge his improved danmaku weapon, but since he keeps on firing and he's reaching his limits of dodging stuff. He hides in a nearby building.

'Dang it how in the world am I supposed to kill him if he keeps on shooting that weapon. There's got to be a way' Before Max can find an idea to defeat him. He heard somebody trying to shoot him.

"Minion help me. I'm taking heavy damage from him." Claptrap said as he fires a Tediore SMG.

"Oh great" Max said. He had forgotten that Claptrap was there to destroy the beacon. But he heard somebody helping.

"Zer0." Claptrap said Right in front of Claptrap. Zer0 body shield Claptrap while firing his Maliwan shock sniper rifle to him.

"This person is tough, we must retreat to safety, come with me hurry."

"Well if you say so." Claptrap holds on to Zer0. "Ghosting" Zero actives his Decepti0n and throws kunai to him and runs away.

"Uhhh sneaky assassins come out you coward." Stat said.

'Now that's taking care of, I just need to find a way to defeat him.' Max thought. He heard a scream coming from the plaza. He looks outside and saw Aya being beat up by Hyperion soldiers. 'Oh great' Max thought again. Now he needs to find a way to get Aya safely away from the soldiers. But not just Aya, Max saw Keine in the other distance struggling to fight back Hyperion loaders. The wound on her body slows her down and need aided help. But thankfully Max saw Architect helping her out to fight back the loaders.

"You okay there mate." Architect said.

"Yea I'm okay and who are you anyways."

"I'm Architect by the way a Vault Hunter, but right now we need to worry about the enemy right in front us."

"Sounds good remind me not to use any weapon that I borrow from the enemy."

"It doesn't matter its survival. Use it if you can't use danmaku." Architect said. Then they fight the Hyperion loaders.

'Okay now that's taking care of. Now who's going to take care of Aya?' Max thought. Aya still being beaten by Hyperion soldiers needed help badly. 'Alright then it's my turn to deal with this, but I need to make sure he didn't see me.' Max took a deep breath. 'Alright here I go.' Max then fully charge forward to save Aya, unfortunately Stat notice someone running behind from him.

"Hey who's there? Whoever you are stop hiding." He prepares to fire his gun whatever he sees what he heard.

"Hey you two stop messing with her." Max said.

"Hey it's that brat Vault Hunter. Get him." The two soldiers pull out their weapon and fires at Max. Max actives his speed skill to take the two of them out with his Unkempt Harold.

"Aya are you okay. What happen to you?" From the look of Aya face she looks sad.

"Ma Max. Help me." Aya said while shivering and bursting in tears.

"You better show me where you are, you coward." Stat said.

"Oh crap we gotta move." Max said. He then grabs Aya holding it like a baby and finds a hiding place in one of the buildings.

"Come out coward I just want to kill ya that's all." Max still hiding behind the building waited until he's gone. For a moment when he checks on him he's already gone. Max gives out a breath and check on Aya to see if she's ok. There were bruises on her arms and feet and she is still shaking after the Hyperion soldiers beat him up.

'Looks like that I had no choice but to remove my bandage from my hand.' He thought. He removes his bandage from his right hand and places it on both of her legs. And his left hand and puts it on her arm.

"Max what's that on your hand." Aya stop shaking and crying when she notice vault symbols were on both of his hands.

"This is my secret. Whenever I remove my bandage I feel like my power increases dramatically. It's so powerful then danmaku. And yet I don't remember getting this."

"So that's why you had bandage on your arm because you hide your true power?" Aya said.

"Yea I had to hide it because it is overpowered. I will use it on emergency situation like you."

"Max why Hyperion has to do this" Aya said.

"They want the vault Aya. They want to conquer Gensokyo to get the vault. That's what they want." She then pulls her note saying 'Hyperion conquered land because they want the vault' "Anything else."

"That's all."

"Max I was wondering." She then gets up. "We're you carrying me like a prince should do."

"Well I had no choice. Stat is coming and you were injured. And I had to carry you away from him including other Hyperion personnel." Max said trying to hide from blushing.

"That's okay that's what friends do right saving other friends."

"Yea saving friends since I can't make friends only when someone wants me." Max said. If only I had a girlfriend." Max whispered. Unfortunately Aya heard what he just says.

"Um what do you say?" Aya said.

"Nothing really"

"Did I just hear you say GIRLFRIEND?" Aya said in surprise while blushing.

"Wait did I say that-"

"There you are Vault Hunter now died." Stat said.

"Aya run!" Max screamed. Both Aya and Max run away from Stats danmaku weapon and hides into a nearby building.

"You better hide coward because I'm going to destroy you with my weapon."

"Dang it Aya why do you had to yell" Max said.

"Sorry Max I just heard you say girlfriend."

"Did I say that?"

"Yes you did say 'if I had a girlfriend' you said that right. Did you not have a girlfriend yet?"

"Of course I don't have a girlfriend besides how in the world if I can't find a girlfriend if I'm just a loner." Anger makes Max frustrated until he calms down and talks.
