Struggling against her natural urges, Asherah wills for the tendril's attempting to assimilate the departing souls to retract, her body now experiencing a constant, sharp pain as she falls from her seat.

>AEUG Officer: Get a medical team here, immediately! Is her body not used to space?
>Asherah: It hurts...it really...really hurts...! Is this...what miss Emary...Papa...even miss Masai felt...?!

Puking onto the floor, Asherah begins to feel the pain radiating through her body beginning to subside as the fallen souls of Neo Zeon fade into the ether. Crawling back onto her seat, Asherah wipes her mouth as she clears her throat.

>Asherah: Reverse course and...*cough* maintain Minovsky Particle dispersal to maintain their density!
>AEUG Officer: U-understood!

Clutching her chest, Asherah feels her body being weakened by this struggle against herself.

[Asherah's stats will increase by +1 at C-Rank. -1 endurance will be lost at C-Rank]

Meanwhile on the battleground of Solomon, Elpeo and Elle breach into Neo Zeon's open line, working alongside one another to target the bridge of Yuri Kellerne's flagship.

>Yuri Kellerne: Focus on evacuating! You want me, Gundam?! I am right here-

Unleashing the Full Armor ZZ's High Mega Cannon, the Gwadan is cleaved in half as Yuri and much of his crew are burned away instantly.

>Elle: Dummy, your energy is going to be totally depleted from that!
>Emma: Both of you, return to the ship and resupply! Iino, behind me! Mondo, take point!
>Mondo: Me?! Why-
>Emma: Your armor can take some damage, now do it!
>Mondo: Ugh, I thought you were trying to not get us all killed~...

Neo Zeon's losses continue to worsen, leaving Elran as the ranking Officer of Solomons defense as he takes control of one of the recently completed Geymalks.

>Neo Zeon technician: General, you won't be able to handle its-

Punching the technician in the throat, Elran readies the Geymalk for battle, intent on taking revenge on the AEUG.
