Setsuna had initially been left... confused when he found himself back in the cockpit of his Gundam. Anger? Sadness?

But... he didn't have any time to think on it, as the blast from the Node hit him full force. Sure, Setsuna could communicate, but psychic defense? Not his forte. He couldn't even begin to form a thought as the psiblast ripped through his mind, all he could do was scream out in pain.

And piloting a mobile suit was beyond him right now, leaving him absolutely defenseless as one Shrike hit his suit with a psychic lance, followed by another. A third Shrike got in close, whipping along the side in a move that caused an explosion, forcibly ending the Trans Am Burst as more Shrikes piled on.
