The sixth group consists of Marcel, Jack, Risa, Yukiko, Thoris, Sid, Jacob, and Eryth.

Soldiers: "You know it's pointless."

Jacob points out his blade as Thoris readies his axe.

Jacob: "For you guys, yes."

Thoris: "For us? You must need some glasses."

Sid draws his blade as Yukiko assumes a defensive stance.

Yukiko: "Has your boss been hiding the truth about the last seven or eight encounters?"

Sid: "Your lives are expendable to him."

Marcel readies a kick while Jack puts his hands together and Risa has water swirls around her.

Risa: "Guess you all really are blind."

Eryth: "You're just so caught up in serving your country that you refuse to see the truth."

Marcel: "You throw away your lives for a purpose you can't hear."

Tyler: "It took our interactions with everyone on our side for us to realize it."

Jack: "This world isn't right!"

The soldiers take aim.

Soldiers: "You really are just a bunch of renegades."

Thoris: "And we like it that way!"

The soldiers open fire.

Jacob: "(in head) I won't let that get noticed again."

Jacob makes extra effort to protect the weak spot.

Yukiko: "(defending) Risa!"

The water around Risa shoots out like a blade, decapitating six soldiers and giving Thoris a little haircut.

Thoris: "Hey!"

Sid slices another three in half while taking a bullet to the chest.

Sid: "No time for complaining!"

A few bullets graze Jacob and Marcel.

Marcel: "(in pain) How much longer until we can finish this?"

Tyler: "Save that until after we do the killy- killy, stabby-stabby."

Eryth: "We still need Edo's signal."

Jack protects himself with metal.

Jack: "(smiling) Hey!"

A lightning bolt strikes.

Jacob: "Feel better Marcel?"

Marcel: "(awkwardly) Yeah..."

The golden aura forms around Jacob and Jack.

Sid: "We're already behind you!"

Eryth: "Go get 'em!"

Jacob/ Jack: "Synergy Attack, Future Hope Bright Reality Style!"

Jack decimates through the soldiers with his night sky blast as Jacob proceeds to mow even more down.

Eryth: "We'll meet you at the White House!"

Everyone who isn't Jacob or Jack hurries over to the White House as they wrap up their attack.

Jacob: "(wrapping up) We're right behind you!"

Jack and Jacob finish their attack.

Jack: "(smiling) Let's hurry!"

Jacob: "(nodding) I couldn't agree more with myself."

Jack: "(confused) Yourself?"

Jacob: "(embarrassed) I-I'ts nothing!"

They hurry over to the White House, with Jacob's face looking like it belongs in a painting of a tomato...
