The machine thing shudders suddenly, stumbling in its retreat, already hampered by the loss of its arm. Lucy-chan's doing, no doubt. The sword drops down as internally it wrestles to regain control; the netrunner is putting up a fight, but she can't last forever with her hobbled cyberdeck.
But Musashi sees an opening. Scuttling on its legs like it is in crab-like fashion, and with its defenses down, has left the thing wide open. She glances to the wall of the alley, and in a second disappears. She's jumped, propelling herself onto the alley wall above the stricken machine, in a crouched position. Visible only for a second before she pushes off again, using her momentum to drive her downward, plunging both swords into the machine's exposed midsection, tearing through its armour. Digging in deep with both blades, she slashes outwards simultaneously, actually causing herself to spin-midair in a Bios-powered physics-denying bit of acrobatics...
...And slicing the robot in half as she does so, with an electronic screech as both its halves and the Servant fall to the ground, Musashi landing lightly on her feet and hopping back, placing herself between the ruined machine and Lucy's prone body.
Amazingly, the thing still isn't dead. Offline. Legless, and with only its sword-arm it tries to turn itself so it can get an angle of attack, but the appendage is still jerking erratically. But its not down yet.
"Lucy-chan?" She calls out, not sure if the netrunner can even hear her where she is currently, but determined to try all the same. "You good in there? This is a tough little nut to crack, ne?"
