Something funny happened to me today in Mercenaries.
I was playing Rooftop Mission with Sailor Moon Sherry, and two Ubistvos appeared at the same time. When one of their chainsaws hit me and I entered dying state with several zombies nearby, I thought I was going to die. But
no! The Ubistvos kept swinging their chainsaws, not only killing the zombies and thereby saving me from them, but also keeping my combo going while I was slowly crawling away. Then, when I could walk again, I immediately used a first aid spray, turned around and finished them off.
That has never happened to me before. Usually, when I enter dying state in Mercenaries, that's it for me. But this time, thanks to my temporary guardian angels, I survived and even killed more enemies than ever before on that stage.
