He looks at the pad, then nods. He puts the pad away in his cloak, and tests his own balance. He finds that he can still move, and motions that he is going to go to the command center. He signs, "Tell Susan that I'm going to go to the server room/command center to start updating the game to fix it." to the soldier, then shuffles past him.
The Fifth Human Army saluted and approached to Captain Susan so he can let her know about what Lux is planning. Susan nods and proceeds to call out to Lux “Be careful, Commander Ormidial! The command center would likely be the most defended area in this shuttle! Prepare for heavy attacks!” before turning to Kokoro. “How did the sector recapturing went, Commander Kokoro?” Susan asked to Kokoro about her progress on the mission.Kokoro looked upon and thought about the situation. The Inferno Syndicate are the problems - the targets. May as well little the numbers! Kokoro conjured a fireball in her hand and 'rolled' it along the floor towards the remaining Inferno Syndicate forces. When they all crowded around it and tried to look for the source, Kokoro just made it violently explode on all of them, disposing of them - or if anything, most of them if one just so happened to luckily survive. While Kokoro did this, Bowe sneaked away - somehow noticing Lux on her way. She smiled knowingly and began to chase him, intending to follow him - though she had no idea where Lux was going, and that this could very easily take a turn for the worst.
"It went pretty well, actually. All the threats found are now dead ones, and we made sure to set the hostages out." Kokoro said proudly, not noticing Bowe had strayed from the group.“How did the sector recapturing went, Commander Kokoro?” Susan asked to Kokoro about her progress on the mission.
Inside of the control room was the creative director of the game, Morioka Chika, tied up and held captive, and T. Eorize on her laptop. However, she doesn’t seem to be doing any modifications on the Multiverse Mayhem game, but rather, she is communicating with another accomplice through FaceTime; a man wearing a black suit with an orange tie, green slick hair, and a diamond on his left eye. “How is progress so far, Terrance Eorize?” The man in the suit asked T. Eorize as he proceeded to grab a handful of gold coins from his desk and rub them together. “It’s going smoooothly, Dollar Bill. With the log out option gone and the non-Human killing program implemented, thousands- no, MILLIONS of alien gamers are dying every minute.” T. Eorize informed to the rich man, gesturing her hand throughout her sentence. “Good to hear. Because I didn’t give you that $50M loan just for you to waste it all for failing your objective, just like your last attempt in alien genocide.” Dollar Bill responds, now glaring at T. Eorize as he continues to rub the gold coins. “For the last time, Dollar Bill, it only failed because we had a mole in your forces. Perhaps you should be more careful in who you hire, sweetie.” T. Eorize responds with a sly grin as Dollar Bill flips his coins. “And you should be more careful with your words, Doctor Terrence Eorize. As you may already know, I am the Inferno Syndicate’s accountant and finance supervisor; I’m the one who controls all of the money in this organization and therefore, I have authority higher than yours.” Dollar Bill sternly warns to T. Eorize, whose sly smile quickly fades away. “So, I’ll be clear on this: if you mess this mission up, you’ll be hearing to me. Do you understand?” He asked as T. Eorize sighs and eventually responds with a “Yes, sir.” before he ends the FaceTime call.Lux throws a hand up in the air so Susan knows he heard her and continued shuffling along with Bowe. He figured that she would be helpful in taking back the control center. He would have to tell her not to damage the computers or anything so he can update the game. He reloaded his pistol and guided Bowe to the control center. When he got there, he found the door was locked, and he heard a lot of movement inside. He attached the gadget that let him see into rooms to the door, and looked into the glass.
However, there was one important part of his body that Lux completely disregarded: his still-functioning chainsaw arm. As the now-crippled Saw Fist kneels down at the mercy of Lux, Saw Fist quickly places his chainsaw arm onto his waist, manages to speak out through his muffled mouth “Open wide and saw ‘ah’.” before he activate the chainsaw, creating a large laceration on his lower waist. At this moment, he doesn’t care if he dies at Lux’s hands; the mere sound of the activating chainsaw would alert T. Eorize that unwanted guests are right outside her door. And alert her, it did. When she heard the chainsaw, she mutters out a quiet “Shit.” before she begins to unplug her laptop from the mainframe so she can try and bail before he and Bowe could stop her.Lux pulls away from the looking device, and gets a small shiver in his spine. He instantly whips out his pistol, and fires four consecutive shots into the shadows. 1 in each knee, one in his non-robot arm, and the 4th into his shoulder, effectively crippling him. He then jumps over Bowe, and puts a knife to his throat, and a hand over his mouth. He shakes his head, and tries to get him to understand that if he tries to call for help, or do anything, his esophagus would be on full display.
Bowe nodded and chuckled to herself, dashed on in and went along slashing at the knees of all Inferno Syndicate members therein, thus crippling them and dragging them to the ground with nothing to support them fully functional anymore. Bowe then returned to Lux as to where he was now, lowering her blade but staring at T. Eorize like 'Yeah! What he said!'."Destroy...all...Inferno...knees..."
Unlike the other terrorists, though, she wasn’t very resilient to Lux’s demand, as T. Eorize raised her hands and slowly walked away from her laptop. She clearly feared for her life.He shot all guards in the room, and pointed his gun at T. Eorize. "Don't...move..."
