Jakob didn't even have a chance to lower his weapon when the new attacker suddenly struck. “Nora! Get down!” Jakob barked as he stepped forward to prevent his scattergun's plasma shot spread from hitting either the doctor or her daughter.
Jakob did not hesitate to open fire on the new contact, even if it did resemble the XJ-9. He knew the worst that could happen with a premature removal of a power system was corruption of files that were being edited at the time. All Jenny would need is a replacement battery.
Still, they got what they came for. What was left was taking out this contact. Jakob fired both barrels of the scattergun. Even if it didn’t pierce the target’s armour like the fog-bots, the overwhelming blast would at least send it flying, and give the others time to get in a safer position.

Jakob's scattergun rounds send the new enemy robot through an opposing wall.
"Do you know something about this robot, Dr. Wakeman?" Jericho pulled out a specialized pistol and helped Nora get XJ-9 on her feet, his aim trained on the opened up wall.
"I never even completed the blueprints..." Nora said in shock as they retreated to the vehicle that brought them there. The pod closed as the ship engagued reverse thrust, going out the way it came.
"Looks like boss is out!" Val said, activating Super X's comm-link to the small shuttle, "Orders, sir?"
"Has the area been evacuated?" Jericho said, his eye still on Nora.
"Yes, sir."
"Then blow that ship into nothing, but beware of a reverse-engineered XJ-9."

Jakob reloaded his scattergun so he could provide cover for the evacuees. Once they were gone, Jakob relaxed a little. "Alright, blow it up. I recommend we target whatever temporal device they have so they can't travel back in time and bother us in another timeline," Jakob suggested, "Though the question is: What would such a thing look like?"

Drawl watched as the four hundred unique Stylus agents introduced themselves to many a world in the multiverse. Some were more open about their origins, others kept their suits and mechs hidden. It was really cool to him. He glanced back to the world he was meant to watch over, and finally noticed the attack on Tremorton. "Oh... Okay," Drawl said, "That's cool... that's kinda rad..."

"So they made it out!" Koith smirked as he got nothing left playing here. Taking the chance that Jakob made, he flew out of the opening, following that pod bringing Nora and her team. During his trip, according to what he overheard, he ordered.
"That battleship's opening. Full power. Feuer!"
"Roger. Feuer!"
At the far side of the Neo Berlin, a large column of energy beam blasted from the underwater straight into the sky which making to Tremorton only in the blink of an eye. That brightly light hit inside that battleship's opening which later made it going brighter and brighter with lights leaking out from the other openings. And soon, the entire battleship exploded with its pieces of scraps being reduced and soon vaporized into smaller ones or nothing left.
"Overkill." Koith thought. Though that kind of attack might ruin Reichmacht and its existence but at least he'd partially stopped the invasion of some kind of extremists who trying to prove that robots were unreliable, especially with the help of some called "allies". Flying next to the shuttle, he asked Nora.
"Now what, Doc? I don't think this story is just over yet."

Super X suddenly crashed into the shuttle, the much larger robot sending it plummeting to the ground. Super X caught it and set it down gently, nobody hurt from the impact.
"Sorry boss," Val apologized over the comm-link, "Something hit us outta nowhere, and it hit us hard..." Super X got back to its feet, searching for whatever it was hit with.
Suddenly, Koith felt his arms grow numb. They suddenly dropped to the ground in front of him, cut so cleanly it looked as if the parts were made that way. The XJ-9 look-alike appeared before him, its hand transformed into a sword and poised at his power source.

"Fick!"
Koith moaned, but though the loss of his arms still having some toys left for this situation. Using his leg, he kicked that sword off his chest before use the other one's booster sending that Jenny's copycat out from the reach for a while. Then, he got inside the shuttle via the opening made by that sudden passenger got aboard. Nanosteel limbs needed time to recover into the full shape except his AI completely disabled so that's one of his vulnerable time at the moment. But with his remains transformed into a cannon on the right while his left became a sharp Lunarium composite blade, Koith said.
"Well she's as persistent as Jenny, eh?"

A humanoid-shaped molten slab of metal slammed down onto the Tremorton pavement. It lay there for about a minute before it stirred on its own.
"I am going to hate-fist the hell out of whoever did that," Jakob growled as the now-cooled slab sank into the void. The indigo shape, free to move unlike the ruined suit, stood up and glanced up at the sky. "By Drawl, if anything, the weapon that did that is a greater threat to human survival."
It couldn't have been a weapon owned by the time-travelling enemies. There was no way they would risk blowing up their own ship just to kill little old Jakob and some G-Force members. Plus, blowing up their own ship would mean destroying whatever drives the ship had that would allow it to time-travel. It had to have been an ally who held onto the term "Acceptable losses," who fit the bill on old Canadian "American military" jokes.
The Jakob-void turned. From a distance away, Koith was fighting the XJ-9 look-alike. As he figured, the contact was not damaged by the scattergun shot itself... But there was something it was not immune to. The Jakob-void stepped over to the fight. "Priorities..."

Drawl was laughing. None of the other Colossi were, however. They were focusing on their own universes.

The cannon and blade also dropped to the ground, the XJ-9 look-alike glaring angrily at Koith. It pointed its finger and fired an intense blast at Koith's knees, blowing off his lower legs.
Jericho activated his comm-link to Super X.
"I think I have an idea of what hit you, and it's starting to hit us!" Jericho watched as the robotic foe picked up Koith by the head. One of its fingers transformed into a small, needle-like drill, and it began digging into the side of Koith's head. Within seconds, Koith's internal communications abilities were disabled, just before a giant hand snatched Koith from the unidentified robot's grasp.
"You owe us big time, kid!" Val said as Super X started to pound the new robot into the ground with its free hand.

"Thanks a lot." Koith smirked "But I'm not alone here."
Suddenly, that unidentified robot being attacked by unknown source. Firstly were the shots but it deflected, then some energy slashes approaching her. Having deflected those strikes again, that thing exposed its flank and being pushed far away by that unknown source and it soon ripped off one of her arm by the last bolt of lightning straight into the joint. With Koith's status was critical, but he still had another card to play.
"Activate..."
He pushed some special buttons which that Jenny-like robot didn't destroy. Soon, Koith's nanotech repair kit activated which soon healed his wounds at surprising rate. His irises glowed yellow with the special program initiated inside his AI.
"KRIEGSMASCHINE AUSF.VIII-EIN ACTIVATED "EINHEIT". OBJECTIVE: DESTROY THE ENEMY WITH HIGHEST EFFORTS."
Having drawn his combat knife which soon transformed itself into a lightsaber, Koith poised that blade towards the Jenny-like side by side with his allies.

With a now-ruined suit, Jakob now lacked his suit systems- including his communications gear. He couldn’t even call for his mech to blink in.
“Priorities…” Jakob muttered once more as he slowly broke out into a sprint. While the XJ-9 doppelgänger was tearing Koith a new one with unusual brutality to its actions, Jakob continued the approach. When the German bot was rescued before complete destruction, the doppelganger leaped back, inadvertently into tackling range of the Jakob-void.
The Jakob-void took advantage of that. His form warped slightly as he lunged to attempt a tackle to pin down the fake. With even a touch, Jakob’s void would be able to absorb some part of the robot just like the first fog-bot he used the void on.

Looks like some of Koith's allies was in the action and he must take the advantage on that. But before his charge make it towards the Jenny-like bot, the unknown source struck her down with many blows due to her parts being disabled by some kind of mysterious thing. Ripping off the rest of her arm, that plunged something like a knife straight into the abdomen, piercing it with much efforts then a bolt of lightning got inside her. Just in time Koith arrived, he swung his sword towards the fake robot's neck, decapitating it and hopped back to his safety.
"Now." he ordered his allies to do some more damages to prevent that thing regenerate.

((It hasn't been confirmed if the tackle connected yet. Waiting for Agai.))

The robot seemed to anticipate Jakob's attack, vanishing into the sky with a sonic boom, pointing its open palms at Koith and the Jakob void. "Just run, all of you!" Nora screamed, "If that is what I think it is, none of you have a chance against it!"
The Jenny look-alike shot bolts of energy from its palms. Koith was completely immobilized when it struck him, but Jakob was, again, unaffected. The imposter lifted the arm that fired on Koith, and he was strung along like he was connected by a nonexistant cable. The imposter then swung its arm to Jakob, slamming Koith into him.

Being hit by that robot, Koith quickly grabbed both him and Jakob back to safety. During that, some strange source continued hitting that imposter one more time with multiple energy slashes and gunshots. Who was striking that thing? But it seemed that it's buying some time and chances for Koith and his allies to fight, or flight of course.
"Good point, Doc." Koith monotonously asked Nora "Then what should we do next. Fight? Or flight while buying some time with that thing?"

When Koith was swung at the Jakob-void, he passed right through the void like a kind of thick syrup. Despite passing through, there was an applied force. Even when Jakob tried to raise an arm to at least touch the enemy contact, the thrown Koith sent both of them a safe distance away.
If Koith's visual or aural sensors managed to pass into the void, they would have gone haywire, for whatever was in the void was something the sensors were never designed to detect.
Jakob's feet slid across the ground until Koith completely passed through. He turned his head slightly to the others as his body slowly adopted a fighting stance. "I'm too slow in this state. I need my suit back," he said, "Even with that sudden distraction, I doubt that thing would let us go for long."
