"Phew! Can I have another one of those doubly wonderful canned drinks now~?"
"No. Have a milkshake." The girl hands Alex another thick chocolate shake from under the counter.

"Actually, I don't know. This is the first time I've met you. And as for the offer, we could use you as a consultant. The actual footwork though is easy. Just follow the sound of the mad laughter and explosions." She sighs. "Our target isn't exactly subtle."

It's a good thing he's armored up. The hit Ookalf takes is quite a doozy, and even with all his protection just barely manages not to have the wind knocked out of him. The legs he's looking for are just behind him, still trying to kick him as they walk forward. Lucky for him, the robot itself is trying to dislodge the sword from its arm. It's getting close to doing so, at the cost of severing its forearm off.

Maxwell actually pauses at the interaction between the robots. "Mmm... a low-bandwidth form of network synchronicity? Curious."
Of course, only a fool brings a robot-club to a gunfight, and Maxwell fires another blast from her plasma rifle -- this time straight at the torso of the first robot. They can apparently function without their limbs, but those turbines must require significant power source, and the best location for that is in the torso...
At such a close range, Maxwell's aim is true. The plasma blast scorches its way through the robot's torso, and the turbines do indeed go out. It goes down in billowing black smoke at her feet, concealing it and the other robot as well.

As she approaches the bots her arm transform, a beam of energy coming from the arm, thin, sharp looking energies. Which she plunges into the first shield in front her. The energies of her blade seem be designed for cutting through reality itself, which should well. effectively cut through the one she is attacking, of course she is waiting to see if this works.*
Just before Kumi's blade reaches the soldier's shield, a small sound comes out from just behind it. "Is that a duck?" It's clear speach, obviously pre-recorded, and it's coming from the center of the shield rather than from the top where the soldier's head would be. Kumi's reality destroying blade swings through thin air. Once the arc is complete, the shield seems to still be in the same place as before.
Obviously, these soldiers are equipped with ignorance shielding. Lucky for her though, they have to expose themselves to fire. They do just that, pelting her general area with shots.
