"Luffy?!?! I thought you were away from the robot!"

Ib can't quite keep the frustration from her voice. It's almost as if Luffy is determined to be in the line of fire every time she attacks this thing. She's starting to wonder if he's doing this on purpose...

But at least Shiva seems to have put a dent in the enemy forces. And Sephiroth looks poised to do a lot of damage to the robot. So they might just make it out of this one.

But now she isn't entirely sure what to do next. Not wanting to cast anything near any other allies she hesitates, waiting to see how things develop.

A light sheen of sweat covered the guardian as the battle wore on, "That all ya got?" she goaded a soldier after dodging the swing of his blade. Flustered, the swordsman lunged in an ill timed strike. The ninja quickly countered, arcing her twin daggers so the dull sides rested against her forearms, she twirled in a deadly dance. Rikku was already running forwards to intercept the nearest enemy when her previous foe fell, clutching reddened hands to his throat.

Shiva's appearance caught her by surprise, she was keeping a constant eye on her time separated cousins - it had not dawned on her that there would be other Summoners. A callous mistake, she should have been running back when she was running forwards. Her quickened breaths now fogged the air as the Aeon's magic built. Uh oh - she really needed to get out of the line of fire. When Yuna's warning sounded, the ninja was already trying to retreat, but her foe was not having it.

Her opponent's longsword came down in a heavy overhead strike, Rikku just barley blocked it by criss crossing her daggers. It left her prone, and he quickly gained the upper hand, lunging with a superior strength. Her arms shook with strain as the blade drew closer to biting into her. In a do or die moment she ducked, twisting the daggers as best she could. The strength the soldier had been bringing down on Rikku worked against him as he stumbled forwards. It was all she needed, a swift spinning kick took the soldier to the ground where his heavy armor left him slow.

Not bothering with a kill strike, the blonde jumped up and dashed away as fast as her legs would take her, feeling a flash of intense cold at her back when the spell was unleashed. Her previous foe frozen instantaneously in its wake.

She glanced between her cousins with an embarrassed wince. Close one. Leave it to her to nearly get caught in friendly fire...er, ice. It made her appreciate how easy it was to fight with the other Guardians - but then they had the benefit of countless battles to learn each other.
