Tommy charged, roaring like an animal. He raised his massive fists in an attempt to crush Robert with a single blow. Robert raised his arms, instinctively surrounding himself with a bubble of energy. Tommy’s fists rained down, trying to burst through Robert’s force field. Robert was shocked to see that, not only was the field holding for the moment, but Tommy’s incredible strength was driving him through the cement floor!

“Children, help your brother,” Elizabeth told her combat robots. They raised their weapons and began firing bolts of pure energy at Robert. He knew that, under the circumstances, he couldn’t hold out for long.

“Tabitha!” he yelled, his voice strained. “Run! Save yourself!”

She did run. Straight at the robots. Her scimitars came down, slashing through a power cable on one, instantly silencing one of it’s weapons, and severing the arm of a second completely. She lashed out, knocking one back with a vicious sidekick. It climbed back to it’s feet, and the robots turned their attention to her.
