[Escape is an excellent idea at this point, but it might not be quite so simple as that. However Articuno feels about being released, it appears to prefer to deal with the immediate threat. Even as it ascends into the sky, some sort of strange aura can be seen gathering around its mouth.
In the next moment, it opens its beak and tosses its head - a beam of blue light strafes rapidly across the field, freezing everything it touches in the blink of an eye, including a half-dozen instant soldier popsicles. The Ice Beam comes perilously close to Hayato, Honoka, Right, and company, but misses by about 10 feet. Before them, a line of icicle stalagmites shoot up from the ground... a beautiful sight, if not a deadly one.
In the meantime, high above, Lugia appears to be retreating slightly from the battlefield, satisfied with the rescue of its servant. Articuno seems fully capable of dealing with the remaining soldiers. As its immense form begins to ascend, a strange melody can be heard across this doomed battlefield, borne in by the winds of the storm....
And even higher yet, two faint shimmering gleams can be seen appearing in the sky - one blazing red, one electrifying yellow.

...It really is time to go, though.]
