Yumi simply shook her head.
We've been through this before... she thought. Each time, you've gotten better. We can do this again - just put the knife down, and let me help...

"This is diffrent from the last time.... This is far diffrent from the last time.... Something... Something I don't want to face..." Mel feel to her knees and although still holding the knife she held her head like it hurt. She sobbed there in front of Yumi unsure of what to do, to say, or even to act at the moment.

That was exactly when Fuunsaiki took her chance to deliver the kick she had always wanted to do since ten minutes ago --- appearing right behind Kyte in a blur, turning, and kicking out with a roundhouse attack using her powerful rear legs. Although still with considerable effort, however, the attack was a little half-hearted, more fast than forceful, as if Fuunsaiki only intended to keep Kyte trapped in place long enough for Murdoch to connect with his own attack.
Along with the momentum of the kick, Fuunsaiki then thrusted forward and rapidly opened the distance again between herself, the General, and the no-longer-disguised Kyte Soran in order to avoid any counterattack that might be thrown her way.
* * *
"You! Hold it right there!"
Kouji was indeed aware of the entire conversation between Scott/Kyte and General Murdoch --- he had been listening the entire time behind the tent at the back, and had just been ready to ambush Kyte from behind when the cries of mutiny and rebellion reached his ears. At once, Kouji and Fuunsaiki had gawked at each other, but the boy quickly understood. Knowing who General Bryan Murdoch was, a genuine rebellion would've been notably more subtle.
"An entire city cannot be traitors, Fuunsaiki." Kouji deduced. Knowledge of Romance of the Three Kingdoms sure came in handy here. "This mutiny is only for show, and is the work of the very person trying to sow dischord. Can you aid the General while I find the person responsible?"
That was when they separated, and as a very persistent voice approached Kouji's position, he knew he had her --- moreso when he followed her and found her running around the camp without taking the procedures a true UEG soldier would've done already. With that set, it had been even easier to corner the girl between two tents and a fence on the west side of the base camp.
Kouji swung his Beam Sword, holding it threateningly between him and Sammy.
"If you were a true soldier, a soldier with news of that kind would've gone directly to General Murdoch or a high-ranked official instead of wandering around, shouting it out to all who would listen." Kouji sneered. "This is no genuine rebellion. You are the person responsible for this mutiny of yours!"
Sammy only stood her ground, placed her hands behind her back, and giggled.
"Okay, okay, you got me. Yep, I started the whole thing --- I'm quite surprised you read Three Kingdoms, too, but no offence, you're no Zhang Liao, buddy. I set fire to the ammo dump in the north, then set fire to a cluster of tents. The fire spread like wildfire afterwards. And considering how easy it had been infiltrating this base, I'd say you guys deserved it."
Kouji bit his lip.
"But do you know why I'm telling you all that?"
Taken aback, Kouji shook his head blankly.
"Because..."
Sammy grinned and looked at her watch.
"We Witches of Macbeth are never more than five minutes late."
That was Amy and Kimmy's cue --- coincidentally, just then, a bazooka shell exploded behind Kouji, sending him flying towards the fleeing Sammy, as more shells began raining down on the camp from the east circling around to the south. The attack was a coward's blow; only Kouji's God Gundam armor prevented any serious wounds, and the boy was immediately up and running towards Sammy. He was just about to intercept her using the Bakunetsu God Field Dash when the second of the four culprits behind the attack finally showed herself.
"Sammy! Hurry up and get dressed!" Kimmy cried out as she all but tossed the upright empty Dom trooper armor into Sammy's arms and began charging Kouji. Kouji leapt back, firing his machine cannons at Kimmy, only to have Kimmy nimbly skirt past him and slash at his rear flank, which Kouji managed to block with a rising blow from his Beam Sword. Kimmy rocketed away as Kouji turned around.
Sammy was gone, but now that she had her armor, Kouji knew she'd be back to help Kimmy sooner or later. Sighing, Kouji leapt, and was soon leaping after Kimmy, who then turned around in mid-hover, backing away from him, and fired a bazooka shell in his direction...
* * *
Hovering away and firing guerrilla attacks at the outside guards, Amy whistled as she saw Kyte and the General go at it while a noble-looking Mobile Horse pranced around them. Kyte was right, Amy had to acknowledge with defeat; Murdoch was too much for them to handle, at least alone, anyway, and that Mobile Horse seemed familiar...Amy giggled to herself at the prospect. If she and the triplets could take Kouji Kamishima down right here and then, they'd have something to torment Camilla Diamond with forever and ever. That would be most interesting indeed, to have killed the boy who had completely thrashed the loony woman...
But first things first. With the Mobile Horse being more distracting than anything else, Amy had a feeling Kyte'll need their help to keep that thing away from him soon enough. And to do that, she'll need Kimmy and Sammy nonetheless...
With that, she continued circling in a blazing hover and firing, looking around to find her sisters.

As they drew closer, thanks to Fuunsaiki's move, Murdoch once again converted the Lunar Flash from one hand into a sword, and proceeded to clash hand to hand.

Yumi herself wasn't sure what to do or say either. All she could do was slowly walk up to Mel, and knelt down next to the girl. She raised both hands towards Mel, held her head in her hands, and hugged her against her shoulder.

For a moment Mel liked being held but it all to soon reminded her of things she'd lost and she pushed Yumi away and stepped back. "When will the pain stop... Does god hate us that much Yumi?" Mel took the knife and held the blade to her qrist, and the armor armor it disappeared. "Will this make the pain stop Yumi? Will I finaly be able to find what I'm looking for in the darkness I fear so much... Will it send me back to the ones I love?" She said it softly and without another thought she put a deep gash in her wrist. Mel stood and looked down at Yumi, and licked the blade. Mel then looked as if she was going to say something but she ended up not speaking she stood as the blood flowwed from her cut.

Before the Hi Nu Girl could act, a hand suddenly lashed out and wrenched the blade away, followed by a quick slap to Mel's face. Yui watched with wide-eyed surprise, as WeiLi stepped in between the women, her own hand bleeding from squeezing hard at the blade... and showing no signs of loosening the grip.
"S-stop it..." WeiLi shuddered darkly. "Just... stop it... both of you..."
Yumi approached the Excalibur girl delicately, only for WeiLi to shake her off.
"Don't touch me!" WeiLi screamed, glaring down at both women.
"I'm... I'm sick of this," she began. "I'm... so... sick of seeing you beating up on yourselves! There are so many things at stake in this world, and all you can do is just... just... mutilate yourselves!" WeiLi herself was on the verge of crying. Despite her best efforts to hide it, it seems that WeiLi was holding alot more scars than anyone noticed.

Mel laughed lightly and looked at WeiLi. "Such a silly girl...." Something in Mel's voice seemed off, something very dark. Mel took WeiLi's hand and licked the cut from her knife. "You know nothing... Nothing of I've seen... This will truely be the last time I'm on the battle field, for at the end of this war there will be no more battles for a very long time, And at the end of this war I will die.. I will finaly be able to rest.... But you no nothing.." Mel lowwered her head and licked down WeiLi's chest. "about half way down she pass out and slumped over, out cold, and still bleeding from the large gash in her wrist.
