Sato's IBM, on the loosest of reins, doesn't come up short when Rey does. Nope, instead it slams into her from behind; Rey might be heavy, but the thing has a lot of force behind it. Careening off course, it lashes out with its claws. The Joes are built tough, so unlike a human, it's not enough to send heads rolling, but one of the ones not holding the gun gets savaged, white android juice spurting out of the clawmarks screeching through its 'skin'.

Sato himself doesn't run; there's no rush, especially when his ghost is on the case, but he does unsheathe his machete as soon as he catches wind of the new enemies afoot.

Unfortunately the wraith is closest, turning on him. It's not clear if the thing is confused, not when it has a shadowy hood and glowing eyes for a face, but it's after life force, and that's something that Sato has in abundance. Uttering an ear-piercing shriek, it sets on him again. Sato dodges under the first swipe, but when he tries to get past, the wraith seems to be aware that nothing Sato has can harm it and rushes him, grabbing his neck with one wizened hand of death and darkness.
