Waiting for Pirate Man

[A.S.P.E.C.T]

More and more people kept piling up on this mess. Aspect had trouble keeping track of all of them and trying to keep them divided into the two teams that seemed to be waging a war here. Aspect stared down the little pink girl as it glared at him. Well, staring down was impossible to tell since Aspect had no facial features to speak off. The strip of red light across his face simply remained on the Pink Princess as she threw her voice forward inside of his head. Somehow, Aspect was able to pick up on her voice that didn't exist in the world. His auditory sensors picked up nothing of the sort, his visual sensors saw no movement of the lips of the little girl either. But he could definitely tell she was threatening him with two short sentences. Aspect wondered what the appropriate emotional reaction would be to something like that.

Before he could respond, the girl below him moved and Aspect had to move his Crawler back a little to see her properly. The chaos of combat continued around them and the part of him that was currently writing an email to his contact in the middle of all of it really didn't know how he would be able to provide Security in a situation like this. As Aspect did his best to keep half of his Crawler's legs covering the girl underneath him, the angry Pink Princess erupted in a flash of white light. In her stead stood an adult woman with similar features but obviously less... Aspect picked up a word from his Earth English language and decided it would be used in this context by humans: Cute.

The newly formed @Guu drew back her arm and released a sudden burst of force between the Crawler's legs, exploding the ground where the other girl had been a moment ago. Even Aspect had lost sight of her in the Pink Princess' transformation. Aspect scanned around with his 180 degree vision and quickly spotted her in the hands of... more colorful girls. Aspect ran the different scenarios through his processor and quickly ended the charging of his charm. Instead, he back the Crawler out from between the women, not seeing how the weight of his machine crushed part of the fountain underneath it. This was getting out of hand.

Under his cloak, the white energy running through his chest and tendril started to grow brighter as Aspect focused more power onto the task. Only a few seconds more and he would be able to take out the leader and end this. Three seconds since he had started charging. Seven more to go. Aspect looked around to see what else was happening. More people had arrived and it looked like the totals were more or less even. For every person arriving to aid the Pink Princess, one or more came to help the other girl. Aspect wondered how this mess could have started in the first place. The large mechanical sized creature that was formed from Aspect and his Crawler did its best to hide behind the remains of the fountain until his charm was fully charged.
