Last time she had waded into battle, Aerith had been overpowered by a war mech that had damn near killed her, though she in turn had taken it out as well. As she struck at this new opponent however, she found she had made a miscalculation. She speed of her opponent was greater than the speed of her strikes, as she watched in horror as the new comber nimbly avoided her strike and drove a plasma laced weapon into her shoulder blade. The armor was built to withstand the heat of a saber, and the kinetic impact of a rail gun, but the onslaught she had withstood earlier had compromised the armor in the worst possible ways. Least she still had her limbs though, she sorta needed those to fight back.
The blade didn't cut all the way through, but she felt a flicker of heat around her right shoulder blade, and an alarm bellowed out in her helmet as the blade had punctured into the armor. Releasing her hold on the axe, Aerith took hold of the blade with her left hand, clenching the weapon as it began to bubble and pop the enforcement around the hand, the Cortosis Weave and Beskar reinforcement being the only thing that kept the cyborg from losing her limb in the process. Clamping onto the blade, Aerith pulled hard, with the force of her cybernetics and the suit working in tandem, she hoped to impale this freak of nature onto her vibro-ax, as she pulled the handle back with her right hand, hoping to slash across the chest of the entity, though her shoulder and hand section of armor were practically boiling away. "Then you need to stop screwing around and fight!" She retorted, throwing away the blade once her attack was finished, hoping she had managed to do some sort of damage.
"Warning, Armor Breach Detected. Armor Integrity at Seventy-Five Percent."
"Oh shut the hell up." Yea, this was going to be great. Having to fight with two people yelling at her now? Not what she needed right now. An idea came to Aerith's mind however, as raised her elbow as a sort of shield to protect her breached shoulder section. "Wait, wait no, AI listen! Track the targets movements, give me a read out of what it's going to do, and factor in my reaction time. Just tell me when to swing." She commanded, hoping the stupid onboard AI was going to earn it's place here and now. The smell of burning insulation reached her nose, making her eyes water from the corrosive materials it held. Or it would have, if she didn't have cybernetics. This was just the kind of fight she loved though, no holds bared. "Come on you hunk of junk, hit me!" She screamed out, knowing she was going to regret those words, but she was going to just have to tank this out for as long as possible.
