Rose moves first.

She vanishes in a burst of motion, wings snapping open as she rockets forward. The floor cracks beneath the force of her takeoff.

Uzi: "MOVE—!"

A beam of searing light blasts from Rose’s arm cannon, slamming into the far wall where Uzi stood moments before. Steel liquefies, alarms screaming as systems overload.

V laughs, dodging aside as sparks rain down. "Ohhh yeah. Definitely fun."

V lunges, blades flashing. Rose pivots smoothly, scythe catching V’s strike with a sharp CLANG, the impact sending both skidding across the bunker floor.

Rose: "Wow! You’re fast!" She sounds genuinely impressed.

She twists, forcing V back, then kicks off the wall, flipping effortlessly through the air.

J: "Focus fire! Don’t let her control the space!"

J’s shots force Rose to veer upward, wings folding tight as she lands atop a support beam.

Below, N looks up at her, hands half-raised.

N: "Rose, please—! We don’t have to do this! We can talk, we can figure this out together!"

For a moment—

Rose hesitates.

Her visor flickers, the X distorting slightly.

Rose: "…Talking is nice." Her voice softens. "I like talking."

Then her gaze snaps back to Uzi.

The X sharpens.

Rose: "But my assignment says otherwise."

She drops from the beam, slamming into the ground between them.

The impact knocks everyone back.

Uzi grits her teeth, railgun charging. "Then you picked the wrong bunker."

Rose straightens slowly, scythe resting against her shoulder.

Her smile returns—bright, unsettling.

Rose: "Guess we’ll have to disagree."

The lights flicker violently as energy builds.

The clash continues…
