The crimson light-winged armor and the giant's palm wrestled against each other. For a moment, it seemed impossible to tell which side would win—but an even more dangerous battle was taking place elsewhere.
"Crimson, I order you to unlock your internal defensive barriers. I need access to all your data!"
"Sorry, Mama September. I have a new mama now, so I can't listen to you."
"Who exactly caused you to defect? Urnam? Or the person driving you?"
