Last spark from the ashes

"Oh, we're just fine!" Blaze reports, knocking aside a swing from the minotaur. There are deep dents in her armor and one elbow's sparking. But so is her opponent, its cranium crushed in and one leg malfunctioning. "Ghost?"

//I've almost got this!// The AI's voice is strained, grappling with opposition of its own. //Something big is coming through - I can't stop it.//

OK, time to break the minotaur's leg and slam it into the paving slabs. "Leave that to us. Just take care of the conflux."
