Cerberus was first thrugh the teleporter, having arrived almost a minute ahead of his opponent. The forest was absolutely massive, not unlike some of the areas around the Lawless Zone. He could even make out some trees big enough to climb in, if his frame had been built to accomodate such action. As it stood, he would be fighting strictly on the ground. He continued to scan the area, making notes of the terrain features as he prepared for the arrival of the Hessian.

And the Hessian did, indeed, arrive. In a great flash of the light, the mightiest weapon of the A.K.D.F. stood between two skyscraper-sized redwoods. The monolith moved its enormous shotgun, the joints groaning with every move.
Inside the cockpit, Zach bit his lip. This was his first true one-on-one fight with another machine. The Hessian was an anti-kaiju robot, not an anti-robot robot. He hoped the machine would prove him proud...

Zachary barely had time to acclimate himself to his surroundings, when Cerberus struck, firing both Disentigrator guns and the Piercer lasers simultaneously. The Hessian barely moved under the assault, but several new marks had been scored into its otherwise pristine chassis. Cerberus took advantage of the human's momentary confusion and closed the distance, clamping both secondary jaws around the machine's arms before applying full pressure. The Hessian's armor, although powerful, was having difficulty standing up to several hundred thousand tons of pressure applied to the small areas of Cerberus' teeth.
The piloted mech's armor began to buckle in some places as Cerberus kept the pressure on. But instead of stand there and take the abuse, Zachary fired the Crimson beam from the Hessian's eye, which sliced into Cerberus' shoulder, leaving a smoldering trail of melted metal in its wake. Cerberus released his grip, not before injecting nanite explosives into the Hessian's wounds, before smashing the Hessian upside the head with one of the secondary heads. Zach's cameras went blurry for a moment. When they came back online, Cerberus had stepped back and a volley of powerful missiles were head right for him...

The rockets smashed into the titan like a swarm of angry bees, peppering the monolith with explosions. The Hessian was blanketed with with angry fire, but inside the cockpit, Agent Styles regained his composure.
"Okay, Hes'. Let's do this!"
From the blaze, the Hessian marched. Its shotgun lifted up, barrel pointing at the three-headed mecha. A boom louder than any other echoed as the blast launched with a flash. Cerberus stumbled back as tank-sized rounds of punishment collided with his mighty form. Its own impressive armor was dented, but the attack managed to drive it back.
The Hessian's optic swirled with power and launched, aiming for the cable attached to the machine's chest and left arm. The thin beam sliced through the cable with ease, cutting it in half. Sparks and smoke sprayed in every direction as it dangled.
"Don't know what that was for... but looked important!"
The Hessian stomped forward with an angry stride, shaking the forest around them. Its weapon hand lifted up, fingers straightening and spinning into a deadly saw! Slicing downward, Zach brought the weapon against the smoldering wound he had formed with his original crimson beam attack.
The burning red wound was cut open wider, followed by sparks as the saw dug deeper, using the wound as an advantage. The three maws of Cerberus howled before the right head pushed the machine back, yanking the saw away from its wound. The small wound was cut open wide, spewing sparks and cables from the gash the crimson beam had created.
As the Hessian gained more ground, the shotgun lifted. Zach pointed it, aiming for the hole he had just made even bigger!

Cerberus saw the gun being raised and sent a signal to remote detonate the explosives that had been implanted in The Hessian's arms, the sudden explosions stripping away armor and spoiling Zachary's aim, as the shotgun struck Cerberus in the flank, rather than in the wound in his chest. Zach was taken aback by the sudden explosions, a fact which Cerberus exploited as both tentacles lashed out, the tips rotating as they drilled into The Hessian's armor. Chunks of shrapnel went flying in every direction as Cerberus lunged forward, clamping the secondary heads onto The Hessian's left shoulder and the barrel of the massive gun on his back, crushing armor plating and digging into the superstructure beneath, all the while depositing more nanite explosives.
Zachary struggled to break free from his opponent's grip as he also began to warm up the Crimson beam again, when suddenly spars began to erupt from all over the cycloptic machine. Cerberus, who had just withdrawn his tentacles, was now surging electricity throughout The Hessian, as circuits overloaded as smoke began to rise from the machine's insides. Cerberus finally cut the flow of electricity and shoved the Hessian back a few steps, before leveling the Piercer Lasers at the hole in the machine's chest...

"I don't think so." Zach boldly stated, quickly lifting the shotgun up. The pierce lasers struck the thick barrel, chipping the weapon. When the beams stopped, the Hessian's weapon hand quickly lifted. Its three pointed, serrated fingers pointed at the three-headed machine.
"BLAST OFF!" Zach shouted as he gripped the controls!
A cloud of white smoke burst from the Hessian's hands as the hand took off like a rocket! Cerberus stumbled back, this new tactic unexpected. The pointed fingers gripped the open chest wound, holding fast. The chain linking the hand to the arm rattled as the Hessian reeled the titan in!
Deep trenches were torn in the soft ground as Cerberus struggled as he was reeled in like a game fish. With only a few dozen meters between the Hessian and Cerberus now, the center head of the machine lashed out, aiming to take off its opponent's head.
Inside the cockpit, Zach's eyes gleamed and he grinned. "That's right, open wide!"
Quickly lifting the shotgun, the weapon was stuffed into the gaping maw of the machine! The teeth came down on the barrel, denting it. But it was too late...
Zach pulled the trigger!
A brilliant flash came from Cerberus' maw as the gun fired! Dozens of tank-sized rounds tore into the insides of its head, ripping through the armor with ease at this close of range. Countless pieces of shrapnel and circuitry fell, clanging off the ground. Above the mechs, the lethal tentacles of Cerberus lifted like angry cobras. From the tips, particle beams launched.
Just as the beams washed against the Hessian's shoulders, Zach pulled the shotgun out and quickly redirected it, pointing the barrel into the chest wound! The weapon hand released the edges just as it fired, repeating what he had done to the maw! The blast made all of the machine's optics flicker, a tremendous wall of white smoke and debris flying from the chest plate.
Cerberus was flung back, collapsing on its back as circuits and cables spit sparks and danced from the now even larger chest wound! Standing above its fallen mechanical opponent, the Hessian's optic flashed. Another crimson beam launched, once again targeting that chest wound.

Cerberus blocked the beam with one of his arms, the relatively unscathed sections taking the brunt of the blow. As the Hessian prepared to fire again, Cerberus unleashed hell in the form of Piercer Lasers, Disentigrator Guns and a volley of SLAMRs. Although the Hessian could avoid some of the hits, its pilot couldn't avoid them all, as the SLAMRs and one particle beam struck the damaged weapon hand, tearing loose more armor in the process. The battelfield around the two machines was littered with chunks of metal and debris as smoke poured from the new wounds inside the Hessian. Small fires burned within the piloted mech as larger ones began to burn around them, the forest having fallen victim to their fighting.
Cerberus used the momentary reprieve to stand up once more as he closed the distance between himself and the Hessian, taking advantage of his opponent's relative slowness. One secondary head lashed out, clamping around the Hessian's head as Cerberus began to apply pressure. The Hessian's armor, as tough as it was, was having trouble standing up to all that force being concentrated in such as small area, as cracks began to form along glwoing red optic. As Zachary tried to shake his opponent loose somehow, Cerberus' other two heads moved in, ready to began stripping armor and circuitry loose as well...

The jaws came down upon the armor, penetrating it with a few powerful, crunching chomps! As sirens inside the cockpit began to sound, beads of sweat began to roll from Zach's forehead. The young pilot snarled, "Damn it!" He shouted, moving his hands to the side. He activated one of the Hessian's newer weapon systems...
Ports on its body popped up, launching metallic orbs. The fifteen balls hovered around the warring monoliths, flashes of brilliance growing within each. Arcs of electricity began to dance between the balls as he activated. With a great flash of light, dozens of electrical chains ripped into Cerberus! The mighty machine was protected from EMPs, but the electricity was racing through its entire build... affecting not just circuitry.
Inside the launchers of the titan, the explosives detonated! Explosions began to rip through Cerberus as its own arsenal was used against it. The machine stumbled back, nearly collapsing as its sealed launchers were exposed in tremendous, deafening blasts. Chunks of metal began to rain to the grassy ground as the orbs fell to the ground, their power spent.
As Cerberus' arsenal continued to pop, the Hessian's circular eye flashed with life. A crimson beam launched... but it missed Cerberus completely! When the beam stopped, another launched, firing over its right shoulder. Cerberus' three maws released cybernetic roars as it turned around, looking up...
Behind it, one of the many 600-meter trees had started swaying... The crimson beam had cut through the base of it!
Inside the cockpit, Zach grinned toothily. "Timber."
The tree fell like a gigantic domino, the top of it crashing into Cerberus! A tremendous cloud of dust and dirt spread across the area as countless leaves and branches followed the collapse. The Hessian stepped back, joints groaning as it approached the pinned down Cerberus.
The machine was sparking from all three maws as it remained buried underneath the immense tree. Pointing his shotgun at the snapping, sparking jaws of the machine, Zach fired again. Its head turned into a fountain of sparks as the rounds, fired at such close range, tore into the armor rather easily. Parts of its insides became visible, spitting cables and sparks at the titan.
As the cartridge popped out of the weapon and landed a distance away, Zach prepared to fire at point blank once again...

One of Cerberus' tentacles lashed out, bladed tip rotating at high speeds as it stabbed into the Hessian's arm, burrowing into the damaged sections and throwing Zachary's aim off, the shotgun cluster hitting the side of Cerberus' face instead of dead center. The three headed machine then used his immense mechanical strength to push the tree off of himself, the tentacle still shredding armor and circuitry before finally withdrawing before Zach could get his other hand on it.
Cerberus shrieked at the Hessian as he remote detonated the nanite charges that he had been planting. Explosions rocked the Hessian as the charges detonated, blowing holes, not only in the Hessian's shoulder, but also along the barrel of the giant cannon on his back as well as the Hessian's head! Chunks of red glass mingled with the chunks of metal and wires that rained down from the explosions as smoke poured from the new wounds. Cerberus, however, was taking advantage of his opponent's momentary confusion and disability to charge one of his more devastating weapons. Bolts of electricity arced along Cerberus's chest plates as they slid back to reveal the Magnetic Pulse Cannon. A growing hum built to a high-pitched whine as Cerberus anchored himself and fired. The white hot beam lanced forward and struck the Hessian dead center, ripping its way into the damaged sections of the Hessian's armor as the magnetic pulse itself disrupted circuitry and computer systems, causing more damage inside the machine.
As smoke billowed out of the holes in the Hessian's armor, and the machine teetered on the bring of falling over, Cerberus launched more SLAMRs, hoping to topple it over with the explosions...

The powerful rockets smashed against the giant robot, covering the monolith with a blanket of explosions. The Hessian stumbled back, nearly toppling as wave after wave of high explosion detonated. Inside the cockpit, Zach remained focused. “No… never listen to me. Hessian doesn’t need rockets they said!” He cursed those who ignored his requests with arming the robot with missiles and instead gave it lightning mines.
As warning lights flashed inside the machine, the Hessians’ cracked optic surged with power. “At least the cannon still works.” The hotshot pilot said, pulling the trigger.
Through the inferno, a crimson beam launched. It washed over the three-headed mech’s mid-section and moved upward, finding its target: the shoulder mounted launchers! The laser ripped into the unfired SLAMRs, detonated more of them inside their holsters. Car-sized chunks of slag flew from the right shoulder, stopping the assault as Cerberus stumbled back, more explosions being triggered as the missiles continued to explode.
As this happened, Zach lifted the weapon hand, making the fingers form a fist. The fist then launched again, flying at an angle and smashing at unbelievable speeds into Cerberus’ highest head. The titan spun on its foot, gears, wires, and chunks of metal flying from its gapping maw as the clenched fist returned to the Hessian’s hand.
As Cerberus fell to its knees, Zach looked down at the terminal. That last attack the machine did wrecked havoc on its systems, shutting numerous down. Biting his lip, Zach hoped the Neutron Blast was still functional. He breathed a sigh of relief when the weapon came up functional. Slamming his fist into the terminal, he activated the Hessian’s most potent weapon.
“So you want to trade heavy firepower, do ya’?”
The Hessian slumped forward, pointing the gigantic barrel on its back at the recovering Cerberus. A brilliant glow came from the machine’s weapon as it fully charged. Zach typed in the password to the most powerful, anti-kaiju weapon utilized by the A.K.D.F. In an instant, a brilliant flash came from the machine and the ground around its anchored feet cratered. A wall of debris shot upward as it fired.
Cerberus’ heads looked up mere moments before the tremendous beam, as tall as its own body, slammed into it! The ground beneath the beam cratered as it engulfed Cerberus, forming a gigantic mushroom cloud of apocalyptic proportions! Every inch of the machine was blasted, ruining its armor. Chunks of the three-headed guardian melted in mid-air as the beam ruined it. If any humans would have been in the area, they’d have been blinded for the beam, for the first time in years, was used at 100% full power.
Cerberus was lifted off its colossal feet and carried back as the beam continued to annihilate its build. Slamming against a tree, the robot’s body was used as a bulldozer as it cleared the forests for nearly a mile. A final shockwave ripped out as Cerberus landed, every inch of its body now scorched, dented, and pieces of its innards exposed.
The Neutron Blast’s beam began to thin, dimming in light and power before it seized to exist. As the Hessian stood upright again, vast amounts of steam erupted from its body and drifted into the sky. Zach looked through the forests, whistling. The ground the beam flew over wasn’t just burnt black and upturned, but flames still spread on the grass. Numerous trees, some over fifty stories tall, had fallen to the side as it and Cerberus flew past them.
Then he saw Cerberus…
Its chest looked like someone took a can opener to it, the armor literally burned away and ruined. Its three heads spat sparks, cables, flames, and smoke. Its legs were also damaged from being dragged so long across the ground and exposed to the intense energy, leaving its knees seemingly blown out!
Zach grinned, lifting his shotgun. He waited for movement… wondering if any would actually come from the robot from another dimension.

Cerberus took an assessment of the damage that last attack had wrought, and although a number of systems were damaged, the machine was still functional. Zachary's hesitation would prove to be his undoing, as Cerberus fired Piercer lasers and particle beams at the Hessian, the particle cannons tearing through the remains of the machine's armor plating, while the lasers severed cables and gears through the gaps in the armor. Small fires raged within the Hessian as Cerberus staggered forward. The controls didn't seem to want to respond to Zach, due to the Magnetic Pulse Cannon, as Cerberus clamped the secondary heads onto the Hessian's sides, while the primary head bit into the Hessian's head.
Metal squealed in protest as Cerberus began to rip chunks of armor loose before tossing them aside, all the while injecting more nanites into the Hessian's body, using the existing damage to enable to explosives to travel further into his opponent. But Zachary wasn't helpless, as the Hessian reeled back and slammed an armor plated fist into Cerberus's head, knocking the machine loose from the grapple. Cerberus' vision modes flickered for a moment as static filled his vision before coming back online. Cerberus ducked a second punch and slammed the secondary jaws shut around the Hessian's wrists, this time pumping electricity through his opponent as well as cruhing armor plating. With the Hessian locked in combat, Cerberus' tentacles prepared to drill through the Hessian's armor again, this time near the head...

Inside the cockpit, Zach saw the tentacles coming in. Acting on memory from previous encounters with tentacled kaiju back home, he reached out. Pressing a white button, ports over the Hessian's body popped up just as the tentacles came down, fountains of sparks raising high into the sky.
Before the drills could puncture completely through the Hessian's dome, the open vents began to pump scalding steam! The steam washed over numerous wounds adorning the mech's body, affecting the insides much worse than the outside. The super hot steam melted exposed circuit covers and wires while also forming condensation on sparking wires, frying numerous systems.
Cerberus stumbled back, its three maws roaring.
Lifting up his shotgun, Zach readied another assault. An empty cartridge popped out of the shotgun as another was loaded. Its crimson eye surged with power. Its chest plates opened once more, lightning mines ready...
First the lightning mines launched, hovering around Cerberus and charging quickly, bolts of raw electricity ripping between them and entrapping Cerberus.
"Hessian... ALL-OUT-ASSAULT!"
The lightning mines activated, sending dozens of lightning bolts directly into Cerberus' damaged frame! The three maws began to spray plumes of flames and sparks as the energy continued to rip through every inch and system of its body. Then the crimson beam fired, over and over again! Each beam targeting various openings in its thick armor, digging deeper into it. Then the shotgun fired, round after round. The tank-sized rounds ripped through the fractured armor, exposing more of its innards.
Great balls of fire began to explode from inside Cerberus as its entire body was raked with devastation. The monolith fell back without a roar, unable to do so as the assault continued. Thick clouds of dust and smoke began to drift upward as the ground around Cerberus burst into flames, fed by the dry leaves that coated it.
The tentacles, legs, and tail of the machine flailed wildly as the attacks sweeped over it. For almost a minute, the assault wrecked havoc over Cerberus...
Inside the cockpit, Zach grinned as he squeezed the triggers with both hands. Slowly easing his grip, the assault ended. The lightning mines fell to the Earth, their power drained. Some clanged off the body of Cerberus and rolled to the side. The final round the shotgun fired popped out and landed in a heap with several others that had fired.
"Now stay down." Zach said, rotating the Hessian's optic and firing at another looming tree. The thin beam sawed through the thick wood, quickly bringing it down across the collapsed Cerberus with a terrible bang. A wave of thick dust washed over the Hessian as the tree, nearly 600 meters tall, settled on Cerberus, pinning it down and breaking its mighty armor even more.
Whipping the crimson beam across the length of the tree, the dry wood was then caught aflame... burning atop the trapped Cerberus!
