Good thing he had; a dropping axe kick just barely missed him as he slid to one side. Blaine grabbed Kitt and pulled her out of the way, but the opponent was now in extremely close quarters with Anatoly and Blaine, between them.
They - she, now that she was close enough for them to determine sex - stood and pushed her arms out. Just before they made contact with the two, there was a kinetic pulse, and all three Blazers went flying and bouncing.
The woman pounced after Blaine and Kitt, clearly aiming for the girl.

"NO!" Anatoly roared. He blasted a caltropnade at the enemy Blazer while spawning a razor blade at each of her Achilles' tendons, stumbling to his feet to pursue her.

Anatoly, off-balance, had trouble generating enough focus to do all three of those at once. The woman was already jumping, so the razors missed, the the caltropnade was deflected by an invisible force.
She threw a kinetic blast over her shoulder at Anatoly, sending him sprawling. Then she began raining blasts on Blaine, who was shielding Kitt with his body. He couldn't mount a counterattack while still keeping her safe, but he would crumble soon.

Anatoly brought the caltropnade back to him with his Ice mysticker. He hadn't expended the main part of his energy yet - that would be with the detonation. He hurled it at the enemy and detonated it behind her, running in its wake. He collected the fragments that flew back towards him and sprayed them at her side as he approached.

The explosion met with the invisible shield, but the last few spike began to puncture, so the woman had to leap away, leaving Blaine to stand.
The woman landed atop the door leading in, facing them with her arms crossed. She seemed to be waiting for them make a move.

"Any inclination to tell us what you even want?" Anatoly asked, assuming a stance as Blaine stood.

"Give me the Sticker," she said clearly, her voice cutting straight to them. She had her eyes locked on Kitt, who hid behind Blaine.

Anatoly frowned. "You're seriously going to attack a little girl for this?" he asked.

"Don't pretend to be so righteous," she said. "You would attack her for the Sticker if you could, wouldn't you?"
Anatoly felt a massive pang of guilt as Kitt shied away from him as well.

"I would have at one time," he confessed. He looked the enemy Blazer in the eye. "Never. Again. I won't let anything like that be repeated. He shuddered at the memory. "Never," he spoke once more.
At approximately that time, he'd finished slowly crafting a caltropnade between her feet. He detonated it.

She was about the laugh, but the explosion of the caltropnade stopped her. Painfully.
She toppled off the door, using her Sticker to make a soft landing. She stood, leaning on the door. "I'll be back," she growled. "And I won't be alone. Watch yourself."
With that, she disappeared. She had some kind of strange secondary Sticker, apparently.

"Well, that went about as could well as expected," Anatoly sighed, leaning against a vent. "Kitt, Blaine, you both okay?"

Kitt nodded timidly. Blaine grunted. He appeared pretty banged up, and not entirely thrilled to have taken so many hits to protect a Black Blazer, but he was fine.

"I'm a Blazer!" Nathan told him, slightly panicked. "The Guardians got wiped out, I was hoping maybe you guys could... help me. I have no idea what to do, this was all I could think of," Nathan pleaded.

"Lying!" Wilde roared from his place. Farley looked like he agreed.
"If that's true, then why did you sneak in the back, when the Guardian up above came straight out?" Rufus asked.
