Uso battles 3 Zolos. The convoy attempts to give him cover as they flee, but they take heavy losses. The convoy launches the Top Fighter and the Boots. Uso successfully attaches the Top Fighter but the Boots are destroyed in the process. Uso then transforms the machine into half a Gundam and disables a Zolo. As the convoy coordinates the launching of the second pair of Boots, Lieutenant Chronicle Asher arrives and shoots Hakashaku Oi Nyung, the leader of the group, in the shoulder. Stryker is killed in the ensuing fire fight.
