Angel stared at the machine thingies as she thought of them in her head and promptly went limp making both herself and Mortis drop down just as they fired. She cursed as she had hoped they might hit Mortismere but the distraction was enough to make him let go and roll out of the way in order to save his own fat, purple demon ass. Angel rolled in the opposite direction and rolled right into Brandon who was barely conscious.

Brandon stared at her groggily.

"Why you rolling round on t' floor?"

Angel grinned.

"Because I'm avoiding getting vapourised by some machine whatsit thingies and squashed by a fat, purple demon ass! What about you?!"

Brandon shook his head.

"This is getting stupid."

He'd spotted the pre evangelion machines, he grabbed Angel round the waist and hauled her up and ran with her under his arm like she weighed no more than a sack of feathers.

There were several blasts as Brandon dived for cover behind a temple pillar, Angel peered carefully through some foilage and watched as Sincentius and Mortismere were being treated to the same violent blasts. She ducked back behind the pillar.

"What the hell are those things?"

Brandon was deep in thought and was only half listening as he replied.

"Pre Evangelion experiments. Your mother is just about the only person to have destroyed every incarnation of Evangelion."

Angels mouth twisted in thought and then rooted through the many pockets in her trousers.

"Ah ha! I knew I had one!"

Before Brandon could do anything to stop her, Angel sprinted out into the open clutching a metallic object in her right hand and whether by skill or luck, she dodged every shot on her way toward the middle of the Evangelions. Brandon also broke cover and sprinted after her, Mortismere had no intention of going anywhere until Sincentius came up behind him and shoved him hard. Mortismere stumbled into the line of fire, taking a glancing shot that had been aimed at Brandon. Brandon cursed under his breath as he watched Angel dive and sail effortlessly through the air. She grabbed the lead Evangelion round the neck and plunged the metallic object right into the top of its head and then started working furiously with it.

Brandon cursed further when he realised the object was a can opener, before he could stop her she'd plunged her hand through the opening she'd made and pulled some slimy goo out. As she did, sparks began to be emitted by the Evangelion, it began to stumble and falter and then went into uncontrollable spasms like an epileptic fit. Suddenly the other Evangelions weren't so sure of what to do next.
