Alexander was all ready to properly counter Rance's assault, carefully planning on how to get around the swords the machine wielded. That was, however, before they shifted into chainswords, and Alexander promptly lost his ****. "YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" He cried out, lost in how damn cool what he just saw was. "...Wait **** those things are going to hurt me." He realized, suddenly having to figure out how to handle them. He heard the motorcycle coming at him from the back as well, and realized he had to take care of that. He looked to the sides, then shook his head. "Naw, that's boring. Let's do something that will REALLY get the crowd going!" He grinned, holding out Reogane's hands, focusing. The blue fire appeared around them once again, turning into energy as before. However, instead of shooting forward, it simply remained on the machine's hands. Alexander waited until Rance finally struck out at him, he slammed his arms upwards, catching the chainsaw-like blades with his hands, energy and sparks flying off and filling the air around them. "This is gonna hurt me, BUT **** IT LET'S GO!" He roared out, pushing back with his arms and gripping onto them. Even with the mysterious energy surrounding Reogane's hands, they were still getting torn to shreds, just not as quickly as they would normally. He suddenly noticed Keizer suddenly slow down a little, but he ignore it. He only had once chance to do this. He focused on Reogane's legs, and was just about ready to jump upwards.
"This is fun!" "BWOAGAH"
Keizer's bike suddenly slammed into Reogane's back, slamming it forward and into Keizer it's self, but that was not something Alexander much care about. What he DID care about? The girl in a beanie hat, with the smallest amount of green hair poking out from under it, and purple hoody that just popped up behind him in Reogane's cockpit, giggling as Alexander was thrown around by the hit. "Hey, you okay?" She asked, as the orange haired man laid on the "floor" of the cockpit. "I don't think you're meant to eat the ground like that." She asked, as he suddenly jumped up and glared at her.
"OKAY WHO THE HELL ARE YOU AND HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE?"
"I'm a cute girl who's cheering you on, does the second part matter?" She asked, grinning
"It totally does. Yo, dude, care to give me a second? Some cute girl just popped up in my cockpit and distracted me." He asked Rance, sighing, realizing that sounded like bullshit. He stood back up, boosting backwards and opening up some distance. "Hey, say something to him so he knows I'm not lying." Alexander told her, annoyed. Seriously how did she get in there. What she there the entire fight? Surely Alexander "got distracted by thinking swords that were able to cut his machine to shreds were cool" East wouldn't be one to not notice an entire girl in his machine. "Also how did you get in here?"
"Your two wheeled vehicle and your sword with laser teeth are super cool!" She told Rance, not seeming to mind at all Alexander was glaring at her. "They are! Cooler than you just punching him, that's boring, I've seen that before."
Alexander was about to answer, when he had a thought. "Wait a minute...Reogane's cockpit being opened up! That was you, wasn't it?" He asked, pointing at her in accusation, sweat beginning to cover his face. If she had did that, what else had she done in here? "Okay, listen, I don't like to kick the ass of girls but if you messed with Reogane I'm going to kick your ass!" He threatened, feeling quite embarrassed that the fight had came to a halt due to this stupid bullshit. But in his defense, this was something quite serious! A civilian being in the fight was ten thousand percent not okay, and if she got hurt because Alexander continued to fight despite knowing she was there, he would NEVER let himself be okay with or trust himself fighting near civilians again. And though they had just met, fighters connected through battle, so he had a feeling Rance didn't mind the break in fighting for much the same reason. "Okay, you know what, whatever. We'll just call a break to get you ou-"
He was suddenly cut off by the girl grabbing a hold of his arm and pulling it forward...which resulted in Reogane throwing a punch and slamming Keizer in the face, which made it look like he had just taken a cheap shot. He blinked, yanking his arm away from her. He then turned around, getting into a fighting position again. "You know what? Nevermind. If this dumbass wants to get in the middle of a fight, then let her." -----
Rivas wasn't a very social person. In fact he was the opposite of that, and most of the time he would have simply waved a person's handshake offer off, because he was kind of a dick. In fact, he raised his arm to do just that, not realizing that said motion was also part of the process of shaking hands. So he was kind of surprised to find himself accepting the handshake. "Wait what no what are you doing Rivas stop. Stop it. STOP IT-oh cool I stopped it. Wait that's just what you do with handshakes." Once the handshake was done, Rivas paused to think. It was odd, how he did a thing he did not want to do when faced with a woman he found attractive, almost as if emotions were being strong than logic. ****ing up, in fact, but that wasn't the only thing he was concerned with. Aliens were also concerning, so he needed to focus on them. He went back to his laptop, closing down the text program and opening up another one. A bunch of menus and graphs opened up, and he typed something in. Some red dots appeared on the screen, one for each robot that was currently around them, besides two in particular, and a look of confusion crossed Rivas' face. He decided worrying about that could came later, however, and returned to what he was doing. Now, if the aliens spoke of were indeed related to "The Fall", as it was called, this would have been useful. If not, then it would be a waste of time. He typed something else in, simply telling the laptop to pick up machines with similar energy readings, but outputted differently than any know generator. Customs jobs would pop as, as proven when a blue dot representing Keizer appeared, custom colored for it, but if was a LARGE amount showed up, it was probably either an engineer's convention, or aliens using similar technology.
He held his finger up, gesturing for for Emily to wait a moment. After a few seconds, he closed the programmed and turned around, facing her again. He had to admit, he wasn't expecting that. He made a gesture with his hands, trying to think of a good way of breaking the news. He picked up the laptop, and having thought of a decent way, typed it in. "So, how many men do you have with you and can you get more."
Before she could answer, there was suddenly an large explosion, coming from the direction of the city the arena's audience was in. With this, Rivas quickly revised on his on screen message.
"hahah nvm we're dead."
He then opened the monitor program, and showed that the screen was covered in green dots. He pointed towards them, then towards another machine in the hangar, then towards the sky, hoping that made the message clear.

Alexander also heard the explosion, but at this point he didn't give a ****. No more distractions! He was going to finish this fight with Rance, and if anything else got in the way, he would just fight them at the same damn time. "I have no idea how I didn't notice you before, but screw it. Stay out of my way so I don't accidentally hit you and don't surprise me anymore, and we should be fine."
"Ugh, fine. Humans are such killjoys. Not like I couldn't handle being thrown around a little, happens all the time!"
"Okay great she's a weirdo who think she's an alien something. Great. Wonderful." He sighed, shaking his head. "****, ****, sorry dude. But hey, catching our breaths is nothing bad, right? So come on, we still got a fight to finish!"
