Once Ariana had made it to the top of the cliff side and had secured
herself down to watch the oncoming battle Raven crawled into the Geno
Breaker. So the guardian Force had finally decided to come after him.
Excellent.
"Raven," Van sent a message to Raven as soon as he was in distance.
"Van," he echoed.
"We have come to destroy you and all evil you stand for."
Raven smirked at Van's foolish words. "I figured you would say something like that, but we have other plans."
"It's not we anymore Raven," Irvine shouted. "Your little friend left you."
"Don't get your hopes up."
"What do you suppose he means by that?" Thomas asked himself aloud.
"Your guess is as good as mine," Irvine yelled back.
"Enough chit chat!" Raven stated with authority, "Now we fight!"
Nodding, Van lurched the Blade Liger forward, Irvine and Thomas following him closely. They where going to try the delta formation again, this time with Irvine and Thomas behind the massive Geno breaker. Formation ready, Irvine and Thomas began to fire massive amounts of Ammo at the fan of the Geno Breaker's charged particle cannon as Raven went after Van.
Raven turned his attention from Van momentarily and got ready to charge up the charge particle beam. "Still afraid of the charged particle gun I see?" Both Irvine and Thomas got their shields up, however they couldn't last this time. The force of the blast pushed them back against another cliff, leaving Van and Raven to fight in the valley.
Seeing his chance, Van mobolized the Liger's blades and jumped up at the Geno Breaker, but his timing was off. Right as he jumped Raven turned the Geno breaker around and picked the Blade Liger out of the air like a toy. Van screamed in fury and tried to get back to the ground but it was of no use.
Raven played with the Liger, acting like he was going to break it in half, then not. After having enough of this Raven pulled the Geno Breaker up into the air and dropped the Liger purposefully. Van had sensed that this would happen. As soon as the liger was released he pushed off, like he was jumping off of a mountain and made all haste away from the recovering Lighting Saix and D-Bison, Raven following after. It was here that Ariana saw her chance.
Lurching from her perch, the girl landed in front of the two zoids, though they remained unaware of her presense. "Raven! I got these guys covered!"
"They are all yours kid!" He yelled back as he continued his pursuit of Van.
"Oh buddy!" She cried out happily. "Now its time to have some real fun!"
Everyone looked about wildly. Okay, so the girl was still around, but where? No one could see her.
Pleased with the situation, Ariana flicked a few switches and she, inside of Saber Fang looking zoid, became visible to everyone as she stood directly before Thomas and his D-Bison.
"Where the heck did you come from?" He screamed in fright.
"Don't you just love cloaking devices?"
"How did you...?"
"Let's just say I like to expirement with arsenal and such."
Thomas remained silent. He didn't know what to say.
"Skyfeather!" A screen from Irvine popped up before Ariana. "Why are you doing this?"
"Why does anyone do anything?"
"What made you decide to work with someone as horrible as Raven?"
"We fight for the same purposes."
"Huh?"
"I don't like zoids." she stated firmly, her voice sounding off.
Irvine shuddered as he heard those familiar and horrific words. Who couldn't like zoids? They where the helpers and friends of many humans. A zoid would be loyal to the end, unlike many humans. Who in their right mind would want to destroy zoids? Oh how he wished he could strike out and destroy the insolent young brat, but the Lightning Saix had frozen do to low energy.
Ariana now stood still looking from the Lightning Saix to the D- Bison. "Eenny, meenny, miny, mo, I think the D-Bison is the first to go!" Ariana immediately stroke out the gears on her enhanced zoid and bolted off after the already fleeing Thomas.
"What kind of a zoid is that?" Thomas shouted to Beek, It whistled in reply, not knowing.
"It was once an ordinary Zaber Tiger, but I customized it up real good. Say hello to my Royal Zaber Tiger." As if on command, the large beast screamed out in fury as the gap between the two Zoids closed.
Ariana caught Thomas in her sights and prepared to shoot. "All I know is you can run as fast and far as you want, but it won't make any difference in the end..."She fired the double barrel beam cannons, her aim was true. She shot repeatedly and knocked the D-Bison's legs out from under it. Like a cat on a mouse she pounced upon the fallen beast, front left claws at the joint between the neck and shoulder of the D-Bison. Applying a little pressure, then more and more the Di-Bison couldn't take it any longer and the head flew from the body. She could just hear a scream from Thomas before the Transmitter went out.
"Oh you know that hurt," she muttered chuckling. Using the double barrel beam again she fired repeated shots at the body of the D-Bison until it exploded into flames. Her mission was just to destroy zoids, not just disable them.
Turning, she made all haste back to the area where Irvine and his Lightning Saix sat, still useless. She smirked and eyed them. "There is approximately ten seconds before your Zoid is back in commission. I'll give you that time."
Irvine smirked at her stupidity. He would easily be able to take her out with an attitude like that. The ten seconds was up and the Royal Zaber Tiger pounced at the Lightning Saix, it just moving in time to escape the same fate as the D-Bision.
"Impressive."
"Ha! If you think that's good just watch this." Irvine kicked the Lightning Saix into high gear, pleased with its quick speed.
Ariana just smirked and followed for a little. "All around the Mulberry bush, the monkey chased the Weasel." She halted her zoid and just stood there, like the command system had frozen. Irvine turned swiftly and went out to charge her.
"The monkey thought t'was all in good fun." Ariana continued to sing in a monotone voice.
Irvine grinned smuggly. He would kill this girl in his first battle with her.
Just as he was close enough everything went horribly wrong. The Zaber Tiger produced blades and a shield. "Where in the..." But it was too late, try as he would to stop the Lightning Saix had too much momentum. Ariana lowered the shield just as soon as it reflected the shots by Irvine and in doing so produced a clear path to destruction. The Lightning Saix slammed straight through her blade, slicing the once great beast straight in half. She hopped to the side to avoid any possible harm and fired her Double Barrel cannons at it, with so much pf its inner workings exsposed the Lighting Saix exploded, ruining the zoid core.
"Boom, the weasel exploded." She ended and turned quitely to where Raven now fought. The Blade Liger had taken some serious hits and the Geno Breaker was just toying with it now. At last Raven brought the large, clawed foot of the Geno Breaker to the side of the extremely weakened Liger, kicking it strong and hard. He smirked and brought down the entire mass of the Geno Breaker upon it, crushing all its workings, leaving the zoid completely worthless and unusable.
Raven looked up to see Ariana back up on her cliff watching the battle. He was not surprised to see her there almost completely unharmed. Though she knew practically nothing when they started, she was a smart kid. And a fast learner. She had proved herself a valuable asset to him.
"You got 'em good girl?" He asked.
"Let's just say it'll be a long time before we are seeing the Guardian Force again." Ariana grinned as she spoke these words.
"Good," He replied firmly as he turned silently moving off to find a new place to set up camp. Ariana, with Yenti flying above her, following right behind.
"Raven," Van sent a message to Raven as soon as he was in distance.
"Van," he echoed.
"We have come to destroy you and all evil you stand for."
Raven smirked at Van's foolish words. "I figured you would say something like that, but we have other plans."
