A Wolf Among the Sheep

Internships: Knight of Hell

Apollyon waited as the others took down their opponents with ease. Considering their support equipment had been offlined quite thoroughly by Error, they went down like sheep, unable to fight normally. The only one who did, ironically, was hers. When her wrist-bound equipment failed, she blocked her blade with them, effectively breaking them and allowing her to use her water based quirk to the fullest. Which, admittedly, wasn't much. The water formed into dual lances, stabbing towards her, but they broke against her armor. Clearly this quirk was only useful against unarmored opponents. At least in the way she was using it. Still, it was far better than her compatriots efforts.

She roared a challenge, knowing full well that this would be her final stand. Whirling around, she tried to pierce where her neck was. It wasn't unprotected, but it was a weak spot, comparative to the rest of her armor... and she tried so hard, only for it to merely depress the mail underneath, not even dent it. With a grunt of approval, Apollyon kicked her to the ground. "You fought well, with everything against you..." She thought for a moment, before offering the deal that she would for a wolf. "You have fighting spirit, but you are beaten. Do you surrender?"

It was a trap, to weed out weak willed... but there was a fire that wouldn't be quashed with this alone. "Never."

"Fair enough." Swinging her sword, she decapitated the MLA member, watching as the detached part fell to the ground. Turning to her resident technomancer, Apollyon asked, "How much longer?"

"Less than one minute. Their commander in charge of digital fortification has noticed me due to the specialized attack. Enemies rerouting in less than... 45 seconds. Elevators have been deactivated, but the stairs remain operational..."

"Focus on data extraction. We will buy you time." Apollyon turned to the rest of her squad. "Get ready. The door is our bottleneck. We will cover their entry points. The rest, prepare. Jellyfish, don't get distracted."

All of them in understanding, the group of four went into the hall. Back to back. Wraith and Moon facing one side, Apollyon and Shadow facing the other. The MLA soldiers rounded the corner, and seeing the threat, charged, energized by the prospect of killing a perceived null... 

Izuku watched the war hammer slam down towards him, unable to do anything... until he was pushed aside. There was still a sickening crunch, but there was no time to react save to end this fight. Gripping Aurora, he stood to his feet, and charged the enemy, using his hammer as a stepping stool to launch himself. Yelling in rage, the sword pierced the large centaur-like man in the chest, through where the heart would be, and using his weight, brought the man down. Slamming into the road, Izuku rolled out of the way just before the man slammed his hand down in an attempt to catch him... only for it to miss.  Without thinking, he moved in, stabbing again, into his face. With a roar of pain, the man was dead soon enough. He didn't have time to think as a new enemy attacked, forcing him to deflect the blow away with Aurora. With this new one swinging again, Izuku went into autopilot, parrying the blow before swinging at another attacker, who fell to the ground after a particularly nasty strike through a gap in their armor, before going back to attack the previous assailant. A third one was going to attack him, however, Reiko sent Emily to possess them, in a bid to buy more time.

Miruko landed right next to him, helping him as he was about to be overrun. Glancing to her, he shouted, "This isn't working!"

"Good news is most of the civies have been evacuated! Just another minute... and then we can fall back to the next rally point."
