It's like these things are trying to keep my nanites from talking to each other properly.
"That's... Very not good..."

*Hits on three of them, kills on two*
*The number of figures appearing seems to be diminishing greatly, and Umbra's shards are making short work off the huge number that were appearing around the village*
"Come on, guys, let's hold up a little longer... Argh..." It's clear that maintaining the shards is having some toll on Umbra.

Tim reloads, and fires at three nearest to him, directly in their cores with more exploding rounds.

Umbra checks the crystal. "I'm low on Ether here..." The shards return and take out six figures before shattering.
It's almost time... He can't go on for much longer.
I wish we could help him...
Help him? How? We're just voices at the moment.
Yes... At the moment. Heheheheh...
Chaos, would it kill you to not be evil for once?
Hey, I'm not always evil! It just depends on the situation.
Riiiiight...
Oh, shut up, Order.
*presumably as the number of figures drops so too does their disruptive influence, allowing Surge to relax and get back to his feet* ugh...well at least none of them directly attacked me...

*As would be expected unless the laws of physics deciced to take a break, they explode*
He fires at five more in a similar way, then tries to reload.
"What? No more........okay then." He swaps back to his rifle, and fires at three more.

Umbra hefts up the thrower as best he can, switching it back to rifle mode. "No... Not done yet..." He opens fire, using up the last 10 shots on five of the figures- accuracy optional.
He won't be able to make it for much longer...
There's nothing we can do, Empathy... Just get ready.

[[perfect for future technological endevours]]
Well I rather strongly regret getting myself involved here.

Umbra's eyes glow light blue as he barely dodges each one, shoving the gun away and pulling out six metal spheres, opening a portal- "Argh!"- and tossing his bag in. "I guess this is it..." He lobs one sphere at six of the figures, pushing a button on each one each time.

You said "this is it" which sounds kinda ominous.

*The spheres impact the figures*
They start beeping. If they choose to assimilate it, it will explode into electric energy early.
A few more. The scratching in the back of my head subsided, and thoughts flowed once again. I took careful aim at one, two, three, four figures, aiming at their center mass, at the orbs in their chests. I didn't stop to check if I hit. I couldn't. I whirled around, and aimed the handgun at the figures leaping at Umbra. Maybe I could gun them down before they got to him. Maybe they would get killed by him first.
