“Whoa nelly!” Calamity shouted, pulling up sharply as half a dozen automated turrets turned our way.  Velvet Remedy threw her shield around him as the guns opened fire.   Bullets and lances of colored light filled the air around us.

I focused, my horn glowing, as Velvet Remedy cast her disintegration ward over us.  The light of my magic flickered around each turret on Bucklyn Cross -- not just the ones shooting at us, but all of them.  For good measure, I extended my spell over the sentinel robot I could make out on the bridge.

Calamity danced in the air, trying to keep the Sky Bandit from taking more than a few minor hits by putting himself between the guns and us.  The shield around him was taking so many bullets it looked like a sparkler.

I focused harder, working as fast as I could.  I knew I could do this; I’d effectively done it before.  Just yesterday I crawled under the Sky Bandit and swapped out the spark batteries.  I had the technical expertise.   This was easy… but it was taking longer than I wanted.

Calamity’s shield went down, a stream of bullets tearing through it and slashing across his side.  Flesh wounds, little more than scratches, but over a dozen of them.  He yowled.  We suddenly dropped several yards as he briefly forgot to keep flying.   Calamity spread his wings and caught air again as Velvet Remedy threw up another shield as quickly as she could.

All the turrets shut down simultaneously.  I had unscrewed their maintenance plates and pulled their spark batteries.  They were dead.  The sentinel robot as well.
