The two girls found their advantage in retreat, knowing that their overall goal was to stir things up on both sides. They were already on the front lines, after all, switching things over would invite them into much of the same frenzy.

Rosa took immediately to the space above, her holo generators running strong. Of course, on this side, the moon had nothing to glide upon, wings wouldn't serve the same use. However, such provided a very well placed location for an ionic thrust, the stiff wings acting much more like a jetpack. Her protective suit was making use of the same ionic shielding to sustain an oxygen supply for her, something which was already being recycled as she breathed. Her DRE provided yet another form of protection, but in this case as a particle weave that infused her entire body in ions like an aggressive barrier. Her jetstream momentum then struck quickly into a nearby fiend as a flying kick, the ions of the impact sparking as the fiend disintegrated. Another fiend came around to turn upon her, that same fiend being subdivided as a high-intensity ion holo-blade passed through it, appearing from out of nowhere and simply falling upon her foe.

Kori meanwhile also set her Trance Inductor Drive on this side as well, the ions flowing a yellow circuit over her face in contrast to the blue patterns conduits like her typically held. She jacked herself into her arm, manipulating the circuits with her accelerated presence to unfurl pure ionic force as a projection. She wrapped such around her, jumping lightspeed into the air, crashing hard upon a fiend in the process, then discharging from impact to strike another. Kori even caught Rosa's next shift, switching to gravitation might instead as she simply pulled herself in a horizontal descent towards a third fiend and then drawing two more towards her in a gravitation implosion. She turned towards one of the oncoming threats, the gravitational force gathering into her cybernetic hand as she outright crushed the fiend on impact.

The other fiend Kori had invited didn't even reach her. Rosa formed her frost carefully, placing a series of frost blades in series along the path between. As the combined impact shredded her foe, she flew over and snatched two of them and made a sweeping spiral dive against yet another fiend, the dual blades slicing the fiend to ribbons. She then flew back over to Kori, holding a defensive perimeter with her, as yet more chaotic fiends drew closer. They were managing, but fending this many wasn't going to be some easy feat, they were going to need some help. As the mist of chaos dispersed from the few they had managed to deal with, their ebony hand itself felt unsatisfied and withdrawn.

「I can't have you taking all of the fun, not when this isn't completely your responsibility. Your foe is here for the betrayer, it's time they had a good taste of some true chaos. It's time you had a good taste of some true chaos. Do not forget, four bodies, two people.. one entity. You are not alone.」

The ebony of their arm flared to life, layers and structure of reflective ebony chaos rendering new form to their previously regular semblance. It was like the arm of a demon, a semblance of claws that held no true form. Driven to strike, the two girls dashed off in opposite directions, their chaotic arm each striking into a nearby fiend. The fiend was not torn apart, it just simply ceased to be.. while their arm pulsed with even greater chaos. They were devouring chaos.. and it felt savoury. Rosa let her shift fade, while fourteen foes rushed them at once. They both dived at one, but that left them open to the dozen left. However, in that, true chaos was unleashed. Making use of the growing power they had consumed, unrelenting plasma scourged in an erratic pattern around them, a violet frenzy that turned the stone they stood upon into pure silver ice. Half of their foes burned to ash, the other half froze on contact. The same ash settled a white haze that was attracted to the frozen cubes, the ash crushing the cubes with imploding force. When the frozen foes were nothing but a flat plane, the two girls touched the ground they stood on, as their chaotic hand took in all of the elements remaining.. including the chaos that used to be.
