Lex nodded and began to follow, securing the rear and fending off any drones that came their way. His orbs hovering around the group, in defensive mode. He casually spoke to Jeanna as they began to evacuate. "Soooo...wanna maybe get a drink after this?"
His device putting off a sparkle in his eye as he looked back at her and grinned. He then went back to Securing the rear of the group.
~Jeanna smiled a little bit and only briefly before looking forward, in the front of the group. I am under aged to be drinking. was all she said with a bit of humor behind her voice. She ran down the hall and down the stairs, all the while destroying a drone now and then that were left over. Once on the ground floor her and Lex escorted the remaining Hostages out and began running towards where Shana and Musa were. Shana! Musa! we are on our way to your location. Provide cover support until we get there. I dout we are out of the woods yet. ~
Shana simply destroyed the drone posing as a hostage with ease. She then looked over a Musa and Jeanna, hearing their entire conversation. She was begining to get annoyed at Musa. Jeanna was right, Musa did a lot of showing off and also did a lot of self worshiping. But Shana was all about the mission. She simply casted the arguement aside and looked over at Musa.
"Lightning team is doing their job. Lex is doing a fine job, let's just get these hostages to the safe zone", Shana said to Musa and then she tried to contact Lek in her mind.
"Lek, please get into the building and assist Lex, it seems lighting team is depending entirely on him and he's doing a great job, Jeanna just went in after him, give them a hand will you?", Shana said in her mind.
Shana then heard Jeanna's voice in her mind.
"Roger that", Shana said and destroyed a couple of drones on the entrance.
Lek nodded and began to sprint towards the building doging fire as he quickly moved towards it. Once there he ran i side and began to clear out the building of drones. everytime he ran across one he began slicing it in half or striking holes right through them. He continued to move as he did this so he would soon be by the others, he was finally having fun like he wanted to.
Oni appeared about 100 feet from the group and contacted Musa in her mind.
"I beleive I will, milady." He aimed Polis toward the drones she was fighting. Dark Blaster!
Polis' gem flashed bright as a ball of Black energy formed at its end.
Dark Blaster: Standby, Ready!
FIRE!
The ball extended into a beam and shot straight through the drones, destroying each of them in one straight blast of Darkness. Satisfied with the destruction, Oni Dashed to Musa, bowing to her, then on to Shana,who seemed to be the leader of this squad.
I am Anoni Mousimo. Captain Terranova sent me to aid the Lightning squad. It seems, however, that they have the situation under control. He paused and watched the building for a moment, then looked back at the girl. For the moment, anyway. I am awiting your orders, miss Shana.
~Jeanna kept a look about the building as she ran towards the main Lobby. Shana! We are almost out of the building. The battle that we had inside made the structure unstable! It is close to coming down. Refrain from using energy attacks if possible until we are clear of the building! She spoke mentally to them all so they got the message~
Lex jumped and slid down the stair rail lopping off the head of a drone before he landed at the bottom. He covered Jeanna and the hostages, slicing through multiple drones as they came to attack them, and taking another blast to his shoulder. He grunted a little in pain as he spoke to Jeanna. "Get them out of here...I'll be right behind ya!"
The door wasn't far now.
Lex stayed behind fighting. "Blink Pulse!" His device flickered. "Blink Pulse, stand by"
He teleported around slashing through drones one by one. It appeared as if steam was now coming off of his body, his guardian orbs fell to the ground making a clanking noise before they faded away. Lex started to overheat from heavy use of his device, but he kept on fighting. His energy blade began to flicker and phase in and out.
A pillar holding up the floors above them began to crack as a blast hit it and the building slowly started to crumble. "Everyone! Get out now!!!"

Will our hero make it out before the building collapses on top of him? Find out next time!
To Be Continued...
😛
Oni watched as the building started to crumble. Everyone was out except for Lex.
Come on Lex. What the hell are you doing?!
The back of the building caved in, and the front, where Lex was, was surely soon to follow. Oni couldn't take it anymore. He was going to save his squad mate.
He said to Shana: I'm going in after him.
Immediately after this sentence, Oni Dashed to the entrance, already drooping as if about to fall. He ran inside, and saw Lex down the long hallway, still fighting the drones. His body could only take one more good Dash, so he ran towards him, yelling Lex! Get the hell out of here!
After what seemed to be a lifetime, with the building on the very verge of falling, Oni reached him. His body was extremely hot to the touch. Oni skipped the formalities, grabbed his arm, and used his last Dash to get out of the building, half a second before it collapsed. When they appeared outside, He fell to his knees, then to the ground, using so much energy with the last Dash that he had fallen unconscious.

(( Doh, you ruined my epic escape plan lol. I didn't wanna be rescued 😛 ))
Lex watched as Oni fell to the ground, with a disgusted look on his face. He was a bit frustrated that Oni didn't trust his abilities to escape on his own. But none the less he made a point to thank him whenever he wakes up.
Lex stood there popping and adjusting his wounded shoulder as his device, Aeon entered a cooldown mode.
He looked to the others and spoke. "So what now?... Are we done here?"
~Jeanna just stood there and watched. She had gotten out with the Hostages and was with Shana. ..... I assume we are. the Training exercise was to take out the surrounding hostiles and rescue the hostages. However I think we may lose points for destroying a building. He who strives to touch a star, often crumbles like a peice of straw... she spoke the little bit of wisdom then looked to the others. .... Uhh.. Perfection should not be aimed for. Rather aim to do your best and do not worry about having high scores because if you do you will have a smaller one. She smiled briefly but it faded.~
"Oh come on Jeanna, we're awesome and there is no star that we can not conquer. Now if we are done here then I say we go out and celebrate. I know most of you may not be as financially blessed as I, so how about it be my treat?!"
Musa was so excited to have succeeded in her mission, although she expected nothing less of a sound victory.
She turns into the Commnader and appears right behind the hostage. She then speaks in a loud authoritative voice like someone's Drill Sargeant.
"You listen here Jeanna and you listen good! When I give you an order to go out and enjoy yourself you do not contest my decision! Do I make myself clear missy?! Furthermore you will learn to lighten up and not take things so seriously, I want you to learn to laugh and see the beauty of things! Now drop down and give me 20! Teeheehee, that was fun!"
She switched back to her female form and hugged her knowing she more than likely wouldn't like Musa touching her.
"We're going to be like the Odd Couple. One is beautiful and smart and the other is decent and uptight. Oh my word however will we coexist?"
