Ruby noticed Emerald in the crowd and quickly made her way to the maintenance area but was stopped by

Ruby: Mercury?

Before she could ask any question port announce the two combatants first was Penny

Ruby: what are you doing?

He didn't answer the second combatant was Pyrrha she then realized exactly what they were planning

Mercury: ow polarity vs Metal that could be bad.

Ruby reached for her scythe only for it to be still in the looker, Mercury got into stance

Ruby: mercury what are you doing? You were hurt why- * gets serious * what's going on?

He didn't answer so she do I figure it out by yourself the Mercury was not going to let her without a fight so she tried dashing past him but he kicked her right away she went for her scroll only for it to be shot out her hand

Mercury: let's keep this between friends.

Before he could attack again Mercury seemed to slip on something and was put held to the ground. Y/n appeared holding Mercury to the ground with the forked end of his scythe handle

Ruby: Y/n!

Y/n: whatever your planning to do, do it I'll hold him off for as long as I can.

Ruby: but-

Ruby dashed pash them and Mercury broke free of his hold and kicked up from the ground

Mercury went for a leg sweep only for y/n to lift the leg being swept blocked another kick with the handle

Y/n: don't wanna fight you, surely your leg isn't fully healed from a break like that with or without Aura.

Mercury only smerked lifted his pants legs revealing the metal prosthetic

Mercury: the wonders Atlas tech can do, worth every penny.

Y/n: oh so you're not injured.

Y/n then went on the defensive hitting Mercury on the side of the face knocking him off balance. Mercury tried to kick y/n but he tilted his head out the way and knocked Mercury on his back but before he could strike y/n heard the sound of gasping

Y/n: oh no...

Mercury took the opportunity and kicked y/n from on top of him

Mercury: love to stay but I've got somewhere to be.

Mercury kicked away causing y/n to spin his scythe handle for the on-coming bullets but by the time he deflected until he was out of sight.
