As with everything, I don't own any characters or the show etc etc etc.
I'm not making any money with this, and I have basically none, so there's no point in sueing. You've all seen this before, so you get the pic.
Big O was flat on its back. No doubt some of the robot's systems were damaged, but all Roger wanted now was for it to be able to stand. That alone would give him some chance...
The cockpit shook violently as the "Triple-O" that Swartzvald was piloting dropped down not far from him. IT turned slowly, then spotted him and his fallen Megadeuce. Roger could almost swear the thing was smiling as it approached, slowly, casually, with the attitude that it had already one, and this was just a confirmation of that victory.
It had another thing coming.
Roger lifted Big O's right arm and fired off the piston into the ground, at an angle, and in Triple-O's direction. The blast sent shockwaves through the ground which toppled the advancing robot, landing it flat on its back as well.
Big O climbed clumsily to its feet, taking full advantage of its enemy's fall. The Megadeuce stumbled forward, and caught the rising Tripl-O full on its shoulder. Roger kept up speed, ramming both of them into the wall of the cavern. He then proceeded to pound hes foe, huge hammerblows with each fall of the titanic fists, striking again and again on the hardened armor.
Swartzvald brought his right arm up and cracked Big O across the face, throwing the damaged robot back a step. He again extended the huge, blade-like weapon from the right arm, and advanced menacingly. Roger, desperate for some sort of weapon, looked up at the cavern wall. A portion of it had nearly caved in...
Without warning, Big O fired one of the grappling hooks on its hips, sending it streaking in Triple-O's direction. The Megadeuce ducked, and it shot past over its shoulder. Swartzvald merely laughed. Then, the chain grew taught as the hook imbedded itself in the cavern wall and Roger began to real in the line. Triple-O turned towards the wall, and was caught full-on as a huge portion of it collapsed and an avalanche of dirt and concrete came tumbling down.
"Noooooooooooo!!!!!" Swartzvald cried as his Megadeuce was buried once more. "Not again!!!"
"When will you ever learn?" Roger admonished from his seat. He looked up in dismay, however, as even more of the ceiling began to collapse. Big O turned and ran, but a chunk of concrete half a city block wide came down on its back, followed by tons of dirt and then, eventually, the buildings that had rested atop. The entire area around the site of the final battle became an immense sinkhole, leaving Dorothy and Norman standing on the edge in shock. Big Duo came to a landing behind them. Big O crumpled beneath the onslaught, falling, falling, falling...
"No...it cannot be...it cannot!!" Dorothy walked forward in a daze, lowering to her knees as the smoke cleared.
There was no sign of Roger, Swartzvald, or either of their Megadeuces.
"Oh sweet mother of-" Angel was likewise stunned. The three of them, butler, android, and Megadeuce, stood there for what seemed an eternity. Then, something stirred in the rubble. Dorothy stared at the movement expectantly, only to be rewarded with Triple-O, badly damaged, climging out of the debris. It gave them and Big Duo a look, then stumbled off towards an intact side tunnel.
Dorothy stared after it, her hands clenched into fists at her side. One reached out to pick up a brick and crushed it instantly. As the wounded Megadeuce vanished into the tunnels, she stood and turned towards the one remaining robot behind her. Her eyes focused on the cockpit, where she knew Angel would be.
"He is gone...I cannot believe...that..that THING!!!" Pure malice rung in her formerly emotionless voice. "You must help me, Angel...you must...for....Roger..." and then the strain was too much on her circuts, and she collapsed.
Angel, herself stricken with emotion, stared down as Norman picked up the android's inert form, and gave a slow, solemn nod. Her eyes gazed at the desolation that had been the middle of the city, and she knew that this would doom Paradigm. For with Roger gone, only she and Big Duo were left to stand in Alex Rosewater's path. She was not sure she was up to the task, alone...
Send in reviews. Almost all the ones I have recieved so far have been positive, and to those few that were not I have tried to appease their senders. The next few episodes will be very interesting...
