Lenneth vs Vastrato

[Deleted]

Already slightly icy, she couldn't move much even if aware of the oncoming barrage. The missiles came down like rain and bombarded the immediate area around Vastrato. The monster shrieked as sand and diamond dust covered the area, blurring the scape around her.

Seconds past, quiet after the explosions. Could this be the end?
Hell no!
Vastrato erupted out from the sparkling brown cloud of sand, virtually leaping. She landed on her front claws and began galloping toward the open, shallow sea nearby.
Crap; Natalie put the pedal to the metal and Lenneth took off after her. If Vastrato got to the water, it was gonna be bad for her. In mid flight she fired more ice missiles which rocketed ahead to try and stop the reptile. They closed in, hitting the sandy area all around Vastrato and kicking up clouds of sand.
Lenneth kept coming down in chase, into the clouds. Imagine her surprise when she was slammed head on by Vastrato who had stopped dead in her tracks in chaos of the explosions and used it to ambush.

Well, Natalie sure wasn't expecting that. Or perhaps in her own panic she overlooked the cunning of the crocodile. Either way.

Vastrato, having used her whole body to stop the oncoming machine, stood her ground and took the impact with her rubbery body. With the machine apparently stunned, she threw herself on it and pinned it to the ground. Her teeth found hold of the armor on the chest piece and it was quickly torn it open. She came down again, ripping the wound wider.

She came down again, preparing to bite more damage and hopefully kill her opponent.

What Vastrato failed to realize is that you can't kill a machine. While her attacks were doing quite a bit of damage, which Natalie was having to contend with, Lenneth still had a lot of fight left in her. As Vastrato's spit out a chunk of metal and her jaws opened wide for another bite, her attack was suddenly halted by a freezer beam to the face. Sheets of ice coated both the inside and outside of the croc's face as she shrieked in pain, withdrawing from the source of her agony.

Natalie took the opportunity to bring her machine back to a standing position, which was becoming increasingly difficult with the damage she was sustaining. She picked up her sword once more as a laser charge crackled along the edge, all the while several more Orbit Cannons deployed. This would require some rapid hit-and-run style tactics. While Vastrato was still trying to scrape the ice off her face, Natalie hit the boosters, sending Lenneth airborne as she rocketed towards the reptile, slashing her sword along her flank before doing a rapid 180 degree turn and hitting the other side. As soon as Lenneth was out of range, the Orbit Cannons opened fire, targeting the new wounds in Vastrato's sides.

Natalie ascended once more, before turning to face Vastrato and diving right at her, bladed leveled at her head...

Vastrato already was stunned and not up to speed after being struck twice. Sharp pain entered her face as the blade came and struck the hard skull piece. She shrieked, for it came from the side and wedged straight into her skull slightly. Imagine an ax hitting a tree trunk and stopping...
It hurt like all hell! Most of her body was elastic, able to take abuse by giving way and allow her body to easily and harmlessly absorb the force. Her skull parts were no.

Lenneth's sword left its place, Natalie pulling back and quickly backing away just as Vastrato retaliated but blindly charging forward. There was now a wedge in her upper jaw where the sword had hit and it bleed like a fountain. Now she was all the more angry at the mech. Even in pain, she was fueled by emotion and hormone to keep on fighting.
Quick to defend, Natalie threw up the sword in quick defense. Vastrato came down, jaws and claws slamming against the edge. Avoiding more damage was easy enough, but now she was fighting a tug-o-war game with the crocodile. Not for long, thought. The orbit cannons were still out and circling. When the two began to struggle, they began to fire.
But Vastrato was a smart creature. She noticed the stalking orbs. When they came, she released her hold on the sword and turned upon the cannons. The sudden turn gave the element of surprise, and she managed to snatch one of the orbs just as it fired, crushing it in her teeth and destroying it. A small skirmish erupted between her and the orbit cannons. They fired, and she fought back. When they began to run out of energy and returned, she managed to bat one with her tail so hard that it went flying into the distance and crashing into the islands interior.

Lenneth, who was standing aside, jumped back in just as the cannons had returned to her. Two cannons lost, retribution was called for. She came down with her sword, but as before, Vastrato caught it in her teeth. This time though, Natalie would not lose it. By using the fighting monsters own weight against her, she pulled back, allowing herself to fall and bringing the crocodile over with her. Vastrato was lifted off her feet and flipped over, teeth scraping the blade as she was tossed.
Kicking back to her feet, Lenneth turned and followed up as Vastrato fell. She came down with her body, blade aimed down to impale. Vastrato barley avoided by rolling to the side and to her feet, and quickly followed up with stretching out her neck and digging her teeth into the leg. She pulled, yanking Natalie off balance and forced to regain it.

But in that moment, Vastrato reared up, claw raised, aimed at the headpiece of the robot suit.

(I think its close to having an end being called by the ref, yes?)

[Omegarex24]

(Probably, yeah.)

Warning sirens blared as the screech of bone on metal reverberated through the cockpit. A trio of nasty gouges had been worked into the armor on Lenneth's face, shorting out one of the ocular units in the process. But Natalie didn't need to be able to see with both of her machine's eyes. They didn't affect her depth perception. As Vastrato reared back for another strike, Natalie lashed out with her bladed shield, thrusting it into the reptile's gut while simultaneously sticking a foot there as well. Using the reptile's momentum, she managed to flip Vastrato over onto her back once more, as well as give her room to bring her machine upright.

But Vastrato was already back on her feet and lunging, when she impacted an invisible barrier of force. Natalie's Barrier Field caused the croc to bounce off unharmed. Additionally, it gave Natalie a clear shot to fire the Breaker Cannons once more, the blinding beams of energy lancing into Vastrato's side and toppling the croc over from the force of the blast, her rubbery body bouncing across the shore. Natalie felt a little sorry for having to do this. The croc didn't seem like she was hellbent on destruction or anything. She was being forced to fight...much like she was.

But there wasn't much she could do about it now. As Vastrato tried to locate the machine through the smoke and debris cloud, Natalie cloaked her machine and prepared to strike from behind with her sword...

[Blerhwave]

this match is over, and will be called first thing in the morning.

[Blerhwave]

The roar of the announcer ends the monsters' combat and taking their attention.

"Attention, this match is over; we have a winner. The victor is Lenneth; I repeat, the victor is Lenneth. Monsters prepare to be beamed back."

[Deleted]

Vastrato, hearing the words, looked around in somewhat confusion. Yet she just went with it, backing away until her sight was okay. She glared at the machine that she saw just barely through the sandcloud. She had a mind to keep on going.

When the teleportation beam came, she backed into it, her eyes never leaving the robot. Good lord she hated machines.
But for now, it was back to her container and to the regeneration tank.

[Omegarex24]

(Great fight.)

Natalie wiped sweat from her brow as she watched Vastrato retreat. The battle had been quite brutal, and the croc had shown more cunning than sh had anticipated, as well as a few other surprises. Still, victory was hers, for all that was worth here.

Lenneth likewise entered the teleport beacon, and her machine disappeared in a flash of light, returning it to the hanger, and her back to the Hub.

(Always is. Seems me and you get into more fights then most others. Each time its just as fun)
