Gast: Haaah!!
Tch, doesn't look like it's workin' much...
Uwah!!
(... Shit! I'm surrounded.
I should keep up my strength since I dunno when other heroes are gonna come.
This... goes up?)
......!
(Crap, the bird model eclipse...!)
???: Hah!
Gast: !?
???: The competition has already started, you know?
Gast: Ren! Why are you here!?

Ren: To pick you up, of course. I waited and waited but you never came, so...
We trained hard, I won't allow you to withdraw for whatever it is that you have going on.
Gast: ... My bad. I didn't think it'd get to this either...
Reminds me, you got this place right, huh?
Ren: You kept talking about it, even though I didn't ask. You don't remember?
Gast: Aah... I guess I did?
Didn't think you'd listen to what I say, though surprisingly you do.
Ren: We don't have time for idle talks.
Gast: Y- Yeah! Right... Let's go this way for now!
Ren: So much stuff is scattered on this narrow road...
Gast: This place's just right to do bad things.
Looks like Eclipse wanted this place, too.
Ren: I see. I didn't understand why Eclipse was here, but it's about this?
Gast: ... They caught us! Here they come!
Ren: ... Tch!
They dodged it... The visibility is poor, fighting's difficult.
Gast: There's a little way to go before we get to a wide street. This area has complicated roads everywhere...
Ren, if you're aiming for that guy, then you should shoot from here. It's from a gap, but it'll be easier for you to shoot with no obstacles.
Ren: ... Got it.
Haaah!
Gast: Take this!
Good! We hit them ♪
Though it seems they found out our position. Let's change place.
Ren: ... Oi.
Gast: Mh?
Ren: You're familiar with this place, right?
Gast: Y- Yeah. More or less, there was a time I also fought over territories, so... Ah, but it's already been years.
Ren: But you should know how to fight here more than I do, no?
Give me instructions on... where it's easier to aim from or where I should corner them. I'll carry them out.
Gast: Ren...
If you turn that corner over there, there's a dead end. If you can lead them there, we should be able to fight them with an advantage.
Ren: Got it, I'll draw the enemies out.

Gast: Alright, now they're in a position we can easily aim at them. The one from the sky is hanging low to check the situation.
I'll shoot that one first. You shoot the one falling and those in the back all at once, Ren.
Ren: Roger that.
Gast: After that, I'll be backing you up from behind so take care of the guys in front of you. I'll shoot down all those that are out of the area we decided earlier.
Ren: Got it.
Considering how meddlesome and patronizing you are, you probably would have managed to do something by yourself even in a time of crisis...
Gast: Hm?
Ren: With the two of us it'll be over quickly. I'm not the type of person that has to be protected. You'd better get that through your head.
Gast: Yeah... Of course, Ren.
Ain't no audience here, but let's show off the results of our training!
