[Chapter #1.2.2 - Two Strandees]

As her systems cooled down, her body vented the built up heat as the other girl seemed to be sitting there, apparently shocked at her persona as apparently she was unused to such a thing and as her systems finished her cooling she stood strait once more and looked to the girl

"Have you never used your Module or Plugs before?" she asked simply as she stood there waiting for Colette to regain her feet, and when asked that made it quite clear she had never used it before.

"That was your persona plug judging by how it acted what type I cannot confirm without looking at the plug itself, however removing the plug in this situation would be foolish and I highly suggest against it" answered as she walked with the girl.

"As it is the only means to combat shadows I suggest you do not remove the Plug from your Module, as we may run into more while we search for my ship which is our best chance to leave this area, there are also supplies inside that would be useful to us, thankfully it seems my internal storage still contains Ammunition for my secondary weapons in the event that they are required"

Colette thought to herself as X01 explained what happened. She never heard of a module or plug well at least not in this context anyway but the storing of things sounded very similar to something she got when she started fully working as an idol.

"I don't think I would want to mess with anything anyway at least not on this planet." She said with a bit of laugh. "So what where those things we fought...you called then shadows right?" she asked feeling a bit bad about asking all these questions without being able to give much herself.

X01 continued on as the girl made her comments and as she asked another question she replied "That is correct, they are known as Shadows, they tend to be aggressive, their specific types are not of much concern unless we run into more of them" as they walked she picked up another contact on her scanners

"More enemies incoming...prepare yourself..." she said as she turned to the enemies and started to move in on them, once more her large Auxiliary arms moved into combat position and her feet left the ground as her thrusters lifted her and the small defensive drones started to orbit her once more.

Colette likely would have known of the Plugs. After all, high ranking idols from the Empire used them to wage singing battles against one another for the Empress's favor. Unfortunately for her, Colette herself never quite reached that popularity back at her peak so she had never participated in one of those events. She likely hadn't used her Module for much more than smartphone business in her life. Regardless, the Medjed Plug had activated now that it was needed. Luckily, the idol woman had been transported to this alien world along with her Module. Had she not been, well... that would have been problematic.

The dust blew in the duo's faces as they moved forward. The landscape around them was covered completely by the dust. However, X01 would feel her heavy metal foot land upon something metallic and hollow. Looking down, what appeared to be rusted and scraped remains of some metal container barely protruded from the dust dunes. Before either her or Colette could react though, their footing let loose, crumbling beneath their weight.

They fell into darkness.

And landed onto a hard metal floor.

Music:

They seemed to have fallen into what looked like an interior hall within a space ship. It appeared old and decrepit, covered in layers of age old dust that spread through the air in a cloud, making it difficult to breathe, even more so than on the surface. Colette would likely find herself coughing like crazy upon dropping down there.

Regardless, the duo had fallen to an underground level of this planet. Looking around, they could spot a ladder and a hatch a little ways off from them within the same hall. They could likely climb back up through that, unless it was rusted. However, before they could properly arrange their thoughts, they heard inhuman screeches coming from behind them.

They were Shadows!

As the Two Fell X01 managed to land on her feet, and as she looked around her scanners picked up the things coming, turning to face them prepared for combat "Prepare yourself" she told her ally

she then suddenly surged forward and threw a punch at one of the shadows with her Battle fist her thrusters keeping her floating just above the ground to aid in her movements

Colette grabbed hold of X01 as they fell so she didn't land to hard on the ground when she let go early. Warned of enemies approaching Colette nodded and could fell the power of Medjed make it's self known again as the shadows draw closer. Summoning Medjed once more instead of any king of attack it instead did a strangely enamoring dance.

"Engaging in extermination, please...stand back..." she said to Colette as Once again that purple Aura started to surround X01 as the tower like Persona behind her grew wings, blasting the Enemies with multiple Beams of light

As the attacks came in aimed for Colette, the boosters on X01 kicked into life and she moved infront of her ally shielding her from the attacks with her body, the strikes dealing quite a bit of damage to her body.

As she took the attacks she then lashed out, the wings on her persona glowing as it created a blade of energy in one hand and a fist spike on the other, "please exercise caution.. I will attempt to end this fight quickly" she said to Colette as she then dashed forward with her thrusters and attempted to slash both enemies with the energy blade before following it up with an attempted stab at the Shadow imp king.

As she seen one of the enemies stagger for a moment X01 used her thrusters to get back in front of Colette, the wings once more opening on her persona as it started to blast the enemies with countless beams of radiant light bombarding them with it as she attempted to finish them off.

The two enemies fell, allowing X01 and Colette some breathing space. They had time to inspect their surroundings and what came into X01's view appeared to be an old Module Terminal. These Terminals are used to charge Modules and restore the Plugs full functionalities. However, the one in front of them was old and it was a question whether it was even functional. Still, it might be worth a look.

Looking to the terminal then scanning her ally X01 nodded "Come...this terminal should be able to effect repairs" she said as she walked towards the machine and then looked at it closer "Though it is damaged, it seems to be functional to a degree, however.." she a she paused she placed her hand on the machine and slowly it seemed to repair itself slightly

"...I have effected minor repairs to the machine, My Repair nanites were only able to do this much as more extensive repairs would require proper tools and material, however we should now be able to use this for repairs, though success is not guaranteed " she said as she started to activate the machine

After X01's amazing display of combat prowess, Colette takes a deep breath as the enemies vanished. She smiled and thanked X01 for protecting her. Though she was rather annoyed at herself for basically doing nothing that whole fight. She may still be getting used to using Medjed but it felt wrong for her to be relying on the mechanical woman so much. Those thoughts where made even more prominent as X01 lead them to a dilapidated machine that after she fiddled with it restored the strength of the two.

Deciding that she should at least try to help in someway and not be burden Colette started to look around to see if she could find anything. Spotting what looks like a way back up she "Hey X it looks like there is a way back up over here!" she called to her companion as she moved towards it.
