Billy braced himself for the strike, flipping the controls. There was no stopping her, was there?

I can take Shoutarou, he interjected, offering an arm. We'll send a signal and strike as one, right?

It's definitely tense out here. He's sending out sonic waves, straining to keep the General at bay for just a few seconds. It doesn't seem to work, though, and he's forced to make another block. While he can, he sends a shock down the arm in contact in the hopes of doing some damage.

Brace yourselves and climb up. Lash, stay safe---someone will be with you. Right?

The Riders had better be.
