Ronin straightened up and forced breath out of his nose. Despite being blasted by magic, he was good to go. He took the momentary lull to power up further. The golden aura was joined by a burst of heat and crackling force. Serum offered him the.. uh… serum and he extended his hand to hand it back to her.

“I’m fine, save it in c--”

Kitty, who had been glaring at this whole event, snatched it out of his outstretched hand.

“Take it,” she said as she looked him right in the shades.

Fred’s stoic expression melted. He obediently held out his arm and Kitty injected the fluid. Satisfied, she gave Fred an affectionate little smile and turned to Serum. “Someone’s got to take care of him.”

The group entered in through the portal and chaos erupted immediately. Ronin and Shadowcat stayed in close quarters with each other, fighting back to back and preventing the Breaker Knights from blindsiding either one of them. Ronin squared off with the swordsman. Even without True Sight he could see which powers that machine was robbing from Katie and Rachel. It made Fred's blood flow with fury.

Longsword came at him and slashed. Fred's combat awareness stopped him from being killed as he quickly realized that not even his superstrength could stop this attack. Instead of blocking head-on, Ronin brought his katana upwards to deflect the corrosive blade and change its course. He was partially successful, avoiding a mortal wound but catching a nasty cut on his forehead. Blood ran forth from the wound down over the right side of his face.

Ronin reacted like nothing had happened. His turn. His sword began to glow bright white. Instead of trying to best Katie's stolen barrier spell, Ronin used - "Storm of Swords!" He slashed at Longsword. Flashes of magical force erupted throughout the room, striking all enemies within range.

Ronin stepped back into Shadowcat and held Starsoul low in both hands - a migi gedan stance. "Your stolen powers won't save you."
