[Eliminate every intruder. Sweep the base floor until the upper floor.] The sound of four robots calling out made Anastasia dizzy, and they came out from a pod and scanned the entire room.
Roselin's finger covered her lips, taking a step back. "Ara ara, those robots are online. Linsy, Sweety, what should we do?"
"Destroy those generators–nonono. The door wouldn't open if we destroyed those generators."
"You girls talk too much. Come on, what should I do?" Anastasia was ready with her whip. "Hurry before they attack us first!"
Linsy opened her bag. "Destroy those robots. I will look for my weapon."
"Tch." Anastasia dashed alone.
"Sweety, wait a minute, please don't rush it or you could be trapped there!"
"Don't worry. Rose, protect her. Let me handle those four old junk!" Anastasia always acts recklessly.
Anastasia hates those one-eye robots. Those eyes shone, moving across its mouthless, noseless face. Robot face. Even though if it wasn't a robot, those eyes made her shudder. It reminds her of 'his' weapon. A weapon that almost wiped out the entire Alderaan Academy Frankia HQ.
"Feel my wrath, you ugly piece of junk!" Anastasia's whip wrapped around a sentry robot's leg and lifted it.
Her brilliant idea was to make the sentry robot fall over. However, the robot balances its body with two arms.
"Argh! Why?" She couldn't believe that robot could do acrobatics if she didn't see directly.
The second robot lock Anastasia, extends both its arms. Its body began to rotate 360 degrees, creating a gale and approaching Anastasia. If she fell for those arms that move like a propeller, her tiny body would become a mango trampled by an elephant.
"I hate those arms. Linsy, help me!" Anastasia jumped backward away from the sentry robot.
"Wait, wait, wait. Where's my weapon…." Linsy frantically opened her backpack. There was too much useless stuff. When panicking, she acted like a cat seeing a red light, losing her focus. "Oh, how is this?!"
"Calm down, you can do it," Anastasia said, jumping left and right, evading a whirl robot. "But hurry up before they squished me!"
"Sweety, next time don't put everything in one backpack. Did you hear that?!" Roselin lost her composure. Her ring on the middle finger lit in bright amber. The geo crest in the center of the ring radiated energy into her two handkerchiefs.
Anastasia knew Roselin was terrible on offense, but she had the best defense in the Frankia branch of Alderaan Academy. She could entrust her life to Rose, and cowering behind her.

May the archon protect you.]
A bright yellow light appeared from Roselin's palms. The light formed a shield shell that protected the three girls.
The sentry robot's spinning attack continued its two hands like propellers hitting the shield. Each hit cracked the protection.
"Ugh…" Roselin closed one eye, the other narrowed tiredly. Sweat dripping. "Hurry, I can't help it!"
The third sentry robot has fallen to one knee. His chest opened like two doors. Eight missiles about to hit the shield shells slid from the hole in the chest.

"Open your shield, let me bash them!" Linsy asked.
"All right, make this quick, Sweety. I'm almost exhausted!"
The side of the shield is open.
Linsy's earrings glowed green. She flew two tiny droids powered by her enemies. The capsule droid, sized of a middle finger, moved nimbly like a dragonfly, shooting wind bullets at the four missiles and blasting them through the air.
"Thank You!" Anastasia exited through the hole in the shield and ran while crouching out of the smoke from the explosion. Her whip hardened, becoming a barred sword like lightning, which flashed with thunder.
Shee darted as fast as light, barely visible. Ten slashes came in one second, and aimed for the third robot's right arm.
Having made a perfect landing, Anastasia grinned in satisfaction as the sound of something falling echoed through the room. The sentry robot's right arm fell off.
She turned, ran, jumped, made a same attack on left leg, then robot left arm, then it right leg. Anastasia was skilled in swords. A thousand slashes of thunder were her particular skill.
"This, for your pathetic missile!" Her right foot stepped on the earth, spun, jumped, and attacked a sentry robot's head. "Die you, junk!"
"Anastasia watch out!"
The fourth sentry hit her from the side, sending Anastasia crashing into the wall.
It was so loud that the walls dented. Anastasia got on one leg, her sword stuck in the ground. Blood trickled from the corner of his lips, and he gasped for breath.
The first sentry robot tries to connect the third sentry robot with its arm. While, the fourth sentry robot's arm extended, darting toward Anastasia. From the end of the cylinder, bursts of flames emerged.
It was too close for Anastasia to dodge. She was tired and badly injured. She closed one eye and folded her hands before face, protecting herself.
