Winding its way through space, an emerald-colored shape twirled haphazardly, like a drunken ballerina,
Its wing-shaped chassis was clean and linear, a perfect fusion of form and function. Unbeknownst to the denizens of the sparkling Lunar city on the horizon, it was merely the latest of its kind - an observational drone that had been collecting information on not only this particular battlefield, but countless others, for an unseen presence. A silent, hidden group lurking on the fringes - watching, waiting, and patiently calculating to unknown ends, just barely out of sight-
That was... until now.
It had made a mistake.
The Opus hadn't calculated for the massive increase in range granted by the D-Extractor to the Sapphiard. It had run on a standard 20% increase in power - but the overall effect was closer to 300%. In its rear camera, the flogging machine managed to catch sight of something - and, were it capable of fear and alarm, it would certainly have blanched. The elegant forms of the Lunar Knights' mobile weapons - the Coustwell and its hulking partner, the Sapphiard, were visible in the distance.. and growing closer with every second.
Something... had to be done.
Clang!
William Exeter grimaced as the controls of the Super Robot rattled under his grip, a chunk of Colony debris bouncing off his machine's shoulder armor. Their foe had managed to draw them into a chase - and soon, would be cornered. It had dipped into a debris field on the very outskirts of the Lunar Colony's territory, one that the two of them were now approaching fast.
"Sir Lanius." He spoke suddenly to his companion, the azure Knight turning its head as it flew on jets of glowing, Dimensional energy.
"Have you ever seen a craft like that yourself?"
