Jeremy: "So uh... hi?"

The final team is stuck fighting against 4 strange soldiers, 4 sidearms, and 4 submachine guns.

Jade: "We'd better take things seriously."

Sid: "You people have any last words?"

No responses.

Samuel: "Ouch..."

CJ summons the hornets.

CJ: "We won't let those fuckers take this land!"

Awkward moment of silence...

Samuel: "Say what now?"

The soldiers take aim.

Sid: "Nevermind that!"

Sid summons a small sword.

Alexis: "We've got a fight to win!"

Wind begins to move.

Jade: "I can take 'em!"

The bullets begin to fly, seemingly being absorbed by Jade.

Samuel: "Is that the weird absorption ability you mentioned?"

Jade draws her axe.

Jade: "Yep."

The hornets surround CJ.

CJ: "Let's kick some ass!"

The hornets are taking bullets, but the numbers aren't depleting.

Sid: "(defending) These bullets are nothing!"

Sid is slicing sidearm bullets.

Sid: "Now that's getting a little annoying."

Sid's blade extends using a really long chain, stabbing a sidearm user right between the eyes.

Alexis: "(defending) Don't show us up."

Alexis takes a bullet to the hand.

Samuel: "I think they are."

Jade's all charged up.

Jade: "Just watch!"

The soldiers reload as Jade rushes up to two strange soldiers.

Jade: "No one pisses me off."

Jade slashes their heads off in one, clean, swift slice.

CJ: "How about this?"

The hornets make their way into the submachine guns, causing all of them to panic.

Jeremy: "Focus Wave!"

Two of them go down against Jeremy's abilities.

Samuel: "H-Hey!"

An updraft brings some of the stones on the ground up.

Alexis: "I'll take care of them."

A blast of wind makes the stones like bullets and slicing through another sidearm.

CJ : "Now then..."

CJ switches to his twin blades.

CJ: "... you want to finish this Sid?"

Sid switches to his large blade.

Sid: "You all might want to get back."

The black aura around CJ and Sid begins to form as the remaining two strange soldiers get a hold of Jeremy.

Jeremy: "(struggling) Just do it already!"

The aura glows bright.

CJ/ Sid: "Synergy Attack, Master's Passageway!"

CJ and Sid proceed to slice and dice all remaining soldiers except the ones on Jeremy.

Jeremy: "(struggling) I'm still panicking!"

Jade switches to her morning star.

Jade: "Just a second."

Jade swings the weapon, sending both soldiers flying into CJ and Sid's attacks.

Sid: "Thanks!"

All soldiers proceed to have their innards spill.

CJ: "Finished!"

The soldiers drop dead as the sounds of bullets no longer linger in the air.

Jeremy: "Silence really is the best sound."

The sun is beginning to set.

???: "There they are!"

Phillip's team has joined up with CJ's.

Veld: "Other friends?"

CJ: "Hi, my name's CJ and-"

Tori: "We'd better keep the witty comments down."

They all grab their buttons, along with the newcomer Veld.

Faith: "We bumped into Dr. LeeAnn on our way back."

Jeremy: "Sounds about right."

Dawn: "We just came over to say how we're all heading for base."

They push their buttons and vanish.

Jade: "If it's what we've got to do..."

They all pull out their buttons.

Sid: "... we've got to do it."

They push the buttons and vanish...
