I've taken the liberty of getting our things together while you were out. I'll let Pascal know while you do any last minute preparations, if you have any.
[ 2B's tone is businesslike, marked with a certain weariness as she stands and straightens herself out: pulling her shift down to its full length, straightening her stockings, and putting on her boots. She doesn't look to 9S' face as she does this, and she gives the room a quick once-over before making for the door.
With Pascal notified, she and 9S depart the machine village with little fanfare, making for the coast. The Flooded City is next on the list of places where they can potentially settle for a time, as little to no android activity has been reported in the area for quite a while. It's when they're entering through the sewage tunnel that the familiar sound of flight units reaches 2B's ears, her Pod simultaneously making an announcement: ]
Alert: YoRHa reconnaissance units closing in on current position. Proposal: Eliminate hostiles before they can report back to Command.
[ 2B wastes no time in drawing her weapon, holding out an arm to keep 9S behind her. As they inch towards the mouth of the tunnel, the steady whir of YoRHa flight suits becomes unmistakable, hovering just above their current location. With hardly a verbal warning to her partner, 2B lunges out of the tunnel, vaulting herself upwards towards their would-be assailants-- only to be repelled backwards by a fierce forward thrust from one of the flight units.
2B grunts, tumbling backwards. The wind is knocked out of her lungs as she collides with some debris scattered on the ground. She manages to gasp out a warning as she rolls back onto her feet. ]

9S, these aren't normal recon units! Be careful!
