Victoria's psychological warfare.....doesn't seem to be working all that well, judging from the fact that they just seem to still be shooting at her just as much as they were before. Also, their shots HURT. Still, at least a shotgun round to the face to a few of them does stop them in their tracks. That damn armour's pretty good, however.
Yamal is having the time of her life, meanwhile, picking up one of the soldiers and chucking them into the mass. While this doesn't hurt them much, it does knock a few down.
Dackly gleans their nature with her stare, alright. It seems.....huh. Rather benign. That doesn't help her much, except confuse her as to why a person like this is shooting into a crowd of innocent people. Gozer attempts a gravity bubble to grab a few of the soldiers, but.....again, this armour is either anti-magical or damn well made, because even when slowed, they're still moving. Clearly struggling, but moving.
Evridiki looks over to Haruka, but, as the magical girl seems completely fine, spawning dolls in front of her to distract the opponents, she wagers she'll be fine for now. Instead, she goes over to attempt to take the armour off, attempting to pull the helmet off. It doesn't work at all, as Evridiki finds. The medic attempts one more frustrated pull before looking around and realising that Penelope's own armour seems quite similar, to the extent that the belt designs (bar a missing stylized wheel on the buckle) are identical. Maybe SHE might know how this armour is taken off.
Speaking of Penelope, the Armored Rider seems pretty fine, handling herself. Crouching down and using her shield as a prop and cover, she fires into the armored soldiers, bursts of sparks appearing at the point of contact as they're thrown back by the shots. She takes aim, covering Evridiki as she attempts to figure out what's up with these men.
"Don't kill them! We need them alive!" She yells.
Contagion's gas.....is pretty ineffective against the armoured opponents, given that none of it seems to be getting into the helmets. Unsurprising; these guys seem to have armour capable of withstanding sustained fire and batons capable of countering lightsabers, so it's unsurprising they'll have thought about toxic gas. Well, time for some more...direct measures, no?
6AR lifts off once more, attempting to use his jetpack to get free of the crowd. This time, it works, as he lifts one with the Force and throws him akin to how Yamal just threw another one of his companions....
....straight into the path of the oncoming Pluton, as the boy, having grown slightly larger, is cleaving his own path through the thinning mass of armored soldiers. His rampage, however, is cut short suddenly by an explosive shell smashing into his side, knocking the boy onto a nearby cash machine with the force of the burst. That stung.
