CHAPTER 17: Round 3, Boss Fight 1!!!

Steven walks down the street. He entered a few numbers on his cellphone, and tries too call Victina again. This is the voicemail of Victina Stars. If you're an real cutie with an bandana, you can leave a message. If you're a certain arrogant flute playing bastard, you can f*ck off. ,,Well, that's charming." Says Ricado smiling.

Steven turns his head, and says: ,,Listen, I hired you and your little gang to help me. If you can't shut up, you can leave." ,,Are you her brother or something?" Says Ricado, and he laughs softly. ,,What an idiot. Right, Hi- Wire?" Asks Eel, and she looks towards Hi-Wire. ,,Mister Steven, can I have your autograph?" Asks the boy admiring. They all do a face vault.

Ricado throws a deathglare towards Hi-Wire, and the boy quickly says: ,,Uhm. . .yeah, what an idiot!!!" Steven rolls with his eyes. Saber stops walking, and Steven looks towards him. ,,What is it?" ,,Steven, you don't even have a clue where we're going, right?" Asks Saber annoyed. Ricado growls and says pissed: ,,You DON'T know where that bitch is!?! Then why should I stay around here any longer!?! I'm not gunna waste my time with idiots!!!" Ricado already starts walking away, but Steven stops him by saying: ,,She's in an old warehouse near the waterfront, not far from here. I heard Van saying that." ,,Good. Then let's continue." Says Ricado and he starts walking with them.

Finally, they reach the warehouse. Steven looks up to it, and reads an old sign above the entrance:

RUBBEROBO TOPSECRET HIDEOUT- DO NOT ENTER OR ELSE!!!

,,Aaaaaaaaaalriiiiiiiiiiight. . ." Says Saber while he sweatdrops. Ricado frowns, and asks: ,,We're gonna fight the Rubberobo's? And this is what you need our help with?" ,,Nope. We're gonna battle the Skull Gang." Says Steven. He opens the door, and then notices that they aren't following him. ,,Uhm, guys?" ,,You gotta be kidding me. The Skull Gang isn't afraid to kill anyone. I saw a member killing that Mr. Spooky. I don't want to end up with a hole in my gut." Says Ricado scared. ,,That guy has been arrested. But I don't want too take any risks. Either you all come with me, or you won't get that 1000 bucks." Says Saber annoyed. Eel just shrugs, but Hi- Wire and Ricado have doubts. ,,Alright. Count me in." Says Hi-Wire. ,,Aah, why not." Says Ricado. Steven nods, and he walks trough the door.

Vipra crashes too the ground, and her Medal ejects. A black KBT laughs and walks back to professor Lichtenstein. ,,Good job, Dukev." ,,Bastard. I trusted you." Says Victina angry while she grabs the Medal of Vipra. Lichtenstein smiles, and he says: ,,Your father always underpaid me. And you and your little friends were getting in the way. Everything was ruined. The death of Giganoto, Dyle and the arrest of Sunglasses. And then the loss of the Sunshine Medal. We needed that Medal to combine its force with the Diamond Medal. That way, we could create an unstoppable force."

,,Don't you forget that Stag?" Asks Victina angry. Dukev laughed mocking and says: ,,That idiot? He was in MY way. He played his role. He was too cocky, and that costed his life." ,,But what is going on with that Diamond and Sunshine Medals?" Asks Victina, while she puts Vipra's Medal in her Medawatch. Lichtenstein laughs. ,,You think I'm going to tell you that? Alright, just because you are my old student. Let me start with the Sunshine Medal. That Medal can control light when its using the Medaforce, to awaken the good in persons. I don't know everything, but it is rumored that millions of years ago, an old race of Medabots ruled the earth. . ." ,,B-Movie alert!!" Mocks Victina. Lichtentein ignores her.

,,. . .and one day, an army stood up to their rulers. It resulted into the death of almost every Medabot, and they did something that resulted into the Rare Medals. But we found out, that this was done before. An ancient being called Ihrojak-Kryog (Ancient Medabot language for Indestructible Beast) raged upon the world. This demon was an failed experiment of the Ancient Rulers, to clone their most mighty warrior. The original warrior, called Najoha- Bamas (Ancient Medabot language for Sun-Warrior) fought the clone, and killed it. At least, they killed its physical body. They captured his soul and locked it up inside an Medal. Now the original Warrior knew he would come back when the time was ripe, so he captured his soul inside a Medal too, so that he would stop Ihrojak-Kryog when he should come back."

Dukev laughed, and he said: ,,And soon, we will use Ihrojak-Kryog's power, to activate our personal little weapon: the Adamas." ,,Your planning to rebuild the Adamas!?!" Asks Victina shocked. Her eyes almost bulged out. Lichtenstein laughs mad and yells: ,,PLANNING TO REBUILD HIM!?! My dear girl, we already have rebuild him! AND IMPROVED HIM!!!" The walls slide open, and Victina looks scared too the 6 meters high Medabot, that stood inside the scaffolding. Victina kept staring at the high-tech Medabot, and she could only find one word for it:

Menacing.

Lichtenstein steps into the elevator, and goes up. He walks to the backside of the thing, and reached for an Medal made out of diamond. ,,Suitable. The Medal is out of diamond. He is called Adamas. Latin for indestructible. A diamond is indestructible. And so is this Medabot. No. . .I'm using the wrong words. It's not a Medabot. More a. . .how should I say it. . . Ultimate Destroyer." Lichtenstein prepares to enter the Medal, but then, it is shot. It flies out of Lichtensteins hands, and onto the ground.

,,WHO DARES!?!" Yells Lichtenstein mad. Steven walks up to an ramp, and laughs. Saber steps to his side, and says: ,,So your planning too resurrect that madman, huh? Well, I can still remember that time, and I know how many people he killed. And I'm not going to let that happen again. Not when I'm around." Dukev laughs, and he says: ,,Good! Another bot to trash!!! I just can't get enough of this!!!"

Saber looks down on the normal sized Medabot, and says sweat-dropping: ,,Well, you're a lot shorter then those other Superbots." ,,Shorter, yes. More firepower; definitely." Says Dukev, and he snickers. Saber observes him, and the Medastats appear again.

Dukev smiles evilly. Then, Ricado, Hi-Wire and Eel enter the scene. ,,Well, look who we have there. How ya doing, Mr. Pirate?" Says Eel, and she snickers. Dukev laughs, and he turns his head towards Lichtenstein. ,,Sir, time to call reinforcements! I only want to take out that Saber!!!" Lichtenstein snickers, and says: ,,No problem, Dukev. ATTENTION!!! PRESENT ARMS!!!" Hatches in the ground are opening, and small elevators rise up. On each elevator stands a black, normal KBT.

MEDAFIGHTER: Main Computer

TYPE: KBT-1125

Steven looks around and curses. ,,Damn. I simply hate those things." ,,No problem, Steve. We can take them on. They are just antique KBT's." Says Ricado, and he snickers. Eel and Hi-Wire raise their Medawatches, and yell at the same time: ,,TRANSPORT MEDABOT!!!" The flashing orbs come forth again, and from them, pops out the Medabots. Steven observes them.

Cyber Explosion grins, and says: ,,This is getting boring. I wanna rock." Ricado smiles, and raises his own Medawatch. ,,TRANSPORT MEDABOT!!!" The electrical field in front of him discharges, and out steps a Medabot that looks a LOT like the KWG Sonic Stag that Steven saw in the fight with M-Emperor. The only difference was this one is black.

NAME: Sonic Slash

TYPE: KWG- 21569-2

SPECIALTY: Speed and Sword

Sonic Slash twitches his neck a little bit, and looks down on the KBT's. ,,This is gonna be easy. I'll tear them apart." ,,Hey, save some for us! You're always stealing the show!!!" Yells Heavy Cat irritated at the arrogant Medabot. ,,Whatever. Let's just start." Says Sonic Slash smiling. ,,Hey, Ricado! Look out! Those Medabots have more upgrades then my Meda- Armor!" Yells Steven to Ricado. Ricado nods, and says: ,,I'll keep my eye on them." -Good. At least this kid is more of the Flute level then the Vegeta level when it comes to arrogance.- Steven smiles, and then focuses his attention back on Lichtenstein. He's going after the Diamond Medal. ,,Saber, shoot that Medal now!!" Yells Steven to his Medabot. Saber fires without reaction to Steven, and the Medal is shot. It flies up into the air, and lands behind an lonely Super Computer. ,,DAMN!! Dukev, don't waste any time anymore! Let's finish this!!" Lichtenstein raises his Medawatch, and Dukev is ready for action. Steven raises his Medawatch too, and Saber is ready to kick some serious butt. They wait for Mr. Referee, but he isn't coming.

,,Damn this all to hell! I won't wait for some stupid Referee! ATTACK!!!" Yells Lichtenstein, and Dukev obeys him. Saber dodges an attack of Dukev, and jumps back. ,,Yo, Steven! Transport some useful stuff here!!" Steven nods, and activates something on his Medawatch. Saber's KBT body is exchanged with the Prometheus body, complete with the Meda Armor. ,,Let's rock."

Dukev grins, and disappears. ,,Hey, where is that loser!?!" Asks Saber surprised. Saber looks around, and is then surprised by 2 lasers hitting his back.

SABER: WARNING: 17% DAMAGE TO BODY

He hears Dukev's laughter, and is angered. ,,What's the matter, Saber? Can't find me?" Says Dukev with an half disturbed voice, and Dukev empties the clips of his revolvers on Saber.

SABER: WARNING: 25% DAMAGE TO HEAD, 23% DAMGE TO BODY, 25% DAMAGE TO R.ARM

,,Dukev is cloaked. Of course. Why didn't I think of that? Saber, activate your Infra Red seeker!" Says Steven trough his Medawatch. Saber nods, and activates it. He looks for Dukev, but then realizes he has a problem. ,,Steven, I got 9 KBT's on my scanner. Which one is Dukev?" Steven face vaults, and says: ,,Oops. I forgot that." Dukev laughs again, and starts firing his machinegun. Saber jumps backwards, but Dukev hits him.

SABER: WARNING: 32% DAMAGE TO BODY, 14% DAMAGE TO LEGS

,,Damn. He's an sharpshooter." Says Saber. He thinks back to the time when he was in training with Nur Sal. Nur Sal told him to fight not on his vision, but on his other senses. Saber smiles. ,,Hey, jackass!!! What's the matter!?! To scared to face me?" ,,WHY YOU LITTLE!!! SHOOT HIM, DUKEV!!!" Yells Lichtenstein angry. ,,You're saying what I want to hear!!" Says Dukev pissed off, and he shoots again. Saber turns his head, and fires his rocket launcher into Dukev's direction. Dukev is hit, and his STEALTH is deactivated. Dukev flies into the air with his metal butt on fire.

DUKEV: WARNING: 100% DAMAGE TO STEALTH SHIELD, 29% DAMAGE TO LEGS

Dukev runs another couple of laps, until the fire is out. He looks to Saber, and mumbles something. ,,Nice tricks, Dukev. But I think it is time to finish you off." ,,HAH!! Do you REALLY think that was EVERYTHING I could do!? Just wait and see!" Says Dukev with an insane smile. Lichtenstein grins. ,,Computer, activate the Medaparts transportation!" The Black KBT's are hit with the transportation rays, and they got new Medaparts. Warbandit legs, Sumilidon arms, and another couple of high-tech Medaparts.

,,So, how is this gonna save you from death?" Asks Saber. Dukev grins, and he says: ,,Observe." His eyepatch opens, and Saber sees some kind of red visor for one eye. Dukev fires on a KBT with Warbandit legs, and Dukev then glows. Dukev laughs and taunts Saber. ,,You asked for it." Saber raised his Saber's Gauntlet and started firing on Dukev. Dukev just disappeared. ,,What the hell???" ,,SURPRISE!!!" Yells Dukev mad, and his shoulders are, opening. Saber then receives a nasty present: 10 mark 2 missiles.

SABER: WARNING: 50% DAMAGE TO ALL PARTS, MEDA ARMOR IS DESTROYED

Steven growls, and zaps the Meda Armor. It disappears, and Saber stands up again. ,,Fuck you!!!" Says Saber angry, and he starts firing the Gauntlet. Dukev yawns, and disappears again. Steven looks around, and then he sees a black blur. ,,SABER, BEHIND YOU!!!" Saber turns around and fires, but Dukev easily avoids it. Dukev laughs, and fires his hornlasers. Saber tries to dodge it, but he fails.

SABER: WARNING: 57% DAMAGE TO ALL PARTS

Saber growls, and yells towards Steven: ,,What the hell is that!?!" Steven shakes his head, and whispers: ,,I don't know. . ." ,,I KNOW!!! Dukev has multi-functional Medaparts, that are in conjunction with that eyepatch. As long as that Medapart is functional, Dukev will keep Waarbandit's speed." Says Ricado, and he starts sweating. ,,Great." Says Saber, as he fires at Dukev.

DUKEV: WARNING: 31% DAMAGE TO ALL PARTS

Dukev grumbles, and says: ,,Lucky shot." He starts racing towards Saber, and just when he wants to fire, he trips. ,,WHAT THE ****** HELL!?!" Dukev turns his head, and sees that the KBT with the Warbandit legs is bungling on Sonic Slash's sword. ,,Oops. Have I broken it? Jeez, how careless of me." Says Sonic Slash sarcastic and he throws the KBT away. Dukev gulps, and Saber aims his guns. ,,Shit." Says Dukev, and Saber starts blasting at pointblank range. When Saber stops, Dukev has shields for his arms. Saber is stunned, and Dukev smiles. The shields clap away in his arms, and laughs. ,,Yep. I'm sure am multifunctional." Then he punches Saber in the gut, and not so gentle too.

SABER: WARNING: 69% DAMAGE TO BODY

,,Oops, did I forgot to say that I zapped a Belzelga arm when you were firing at me?" Dukev laughs mad, and launches himself for another punch. Saber braces himself, but it didn't hurt at all.

SABER: WARNING: 70% DAMAGE TO BODY

Dukev turns his head, and sees that Cyber Explosion is still chewing on the Medabot. ,,O, o." Says Dukev, and he turns his back to Saber. Saber is smiling wickedly, and punches Dukev in the stomach. And after that, he fires his gauntlet.

DUKEV: WARNING: 66% DAMAGE TO BODY

Dukev falls back. However, he is standing again in 2 seconds. ,,You sure are tough." Says Saber laughing. Dukev is growling, and he fires his guns. Saber raises the Medaforce shield, and the blasts return at Dukev. Dukev is thrown backwards at his own weapons.

DUKEV: WARNING: 75% DAMAGE TO ALL PARTS

,,Curse you!!!" Says Dukev angry, as his entire body is trembling. ,,Saber, finish this! Don't leave anything left of him!" Yells Steven. Saber nods, and activates his Medaforce. He is surrounded by the glow, and makes a Medaforce Spear. Dukev yells in fear. Dukev, what are you waiting for!?! Steal that power now!!! Dukev smiles, and he fires his Copy Ray at Saber. Saber feels a strange kind of tingle, and then notices that Dukev is glowing from the Medaforce too. ,,Now, you die." Says Dukev with an evil tone in his voice. He raises his fist to make a Medaforce Spear. But instead of that, his arm blows up.

DUKEV: WARNING: 100% DAMAGE TO RIGHT ARM

Dukev stares at his arm, and then towards Saber. ,,Too bad, Dukev. It looks like you can only control such an attack if you have a Rare Medal. You wanted the Medaforce? Well, you got it." Says Saber smiling. Dukev growls madly, while his left arm blows up too.

DUKEV: WARNING: 100% DAMAGE TO LEFT ARM, SYSTEMS OVERHEATING, TIN PAD MELTING

,,DUKEV!!! NO!!!" Yells Lichtenstein scared. Dukev growls, and the Medaforce is shut down. ,,Do you really think that would work!?! I can control my Copy Bug attack, you fool!!! And I'm not done yet!" Dukev smiles, and his horns are charging. ,,Damn. Looks like that isn't a rocket launcher." Says Saber, as Dukev releases a constant double Annihilator beam. Saber easily dodges it, and makes another Medaforce Spear. Then he throws it towards Dukev. Dukev yells one more time, and then is body gets pierced, together with his Medal.

DUKEV: WARNING: 1000% DAMAGE, TOTAL SHUTDOWN, MEDAL DESTROYED, MEDAL DESTROYED, MEDAL DESTROYED

Lichtenstein realized he had a serious problem. He turns to the other KBT's, but the last one is destroyed by Heavy Cat. The Medabots and Medafighters turn at Lichtenstein, and he gulps. He knows he can do just one thing.

He jumps towards the Super Computer, and grasps for the Diamond Medal. Sonic Slash races after him, but Lichtenstein climbs back onto the ramp. The mad scientist runs towards the back side of Adamas, and holds up the Medal. ,,THE DAY OF RECKONING HAS COME FOR ALL OF YOU!!! DIE!!!" He prepares to put in the Medal, but is then knocked out cold. He drops towards the ground, still holding the Medal. Victina smiles as she releases the pipe. ,,What do you mean with the weaker sex?" Steven yells happy, and says: ,,Nice job, Vic! We stopped the Skull Gang! It is finally over! Now we only need to destroy the Adamas, and everything is over!!" Victina walks towards him, and smiles. ,,I. . .don't. . .think so!!" They look up, and see Lichtenstein getting up. They all stare at him, as he puts in the Medal. The Medabot shakes, and the visor lits up. Then, the visor is shut down again.

,,What did just happened?" Asks Eel surprised. Lichtenstein stares at the Medabot, shaking all over. ,,No, no. . .get up. . .we did everything right. . .you can't abandon us. . .please. . ." Lichtenstein starts crying, and Steven sighs of relief. The Medafighters sit down to relax, but then, the visor lits up again. ,,Alright, because you said please." They all jump up, as the Medabot is activated. It aims a cannon towards Heavy Cat, and fires. Heavy Cat is destroyed with one blow. ,,Holy crap." Says Eel scared. Cyber Explosion fires his rockets and lasers, but it doesn't even leaves a scratch. The Medabot walks towards Cyber Explosion, and simply crushes him. The shadowy Adamas looks towards Sonic Slash, but Sonic Slash raises his hammer. Sonic Slashes launches himself towards the Adamas, but Adamas simply punches him away, destroying the tough KWG with one blow. Saber gulps, and fires a series of Medaforce blasts with his gauntlet. Adamas isn't even damaged. Adamas laughs, and aims an pulse cannon on his back towards Saber. Saber tries to fly away, but he is hit by the beam. Saber has been melted within a second. The Adamas laughs loud and mad, and Steven and Victina look scared towards the monster. . .

WILL STEVEN, VICTINA, RICADO, EEL AND HI-WIRE BE ABLE TO ESCAPE THE BLOODHUNGRY ADAMAS!?! NOW THAT THE MIGHTY WARRIOR SABER HAS BEEN DESTROYED WITH EASE, IS THERE ANYONE THAT CAN STOP IT!?! SEE IT NEXT TIME IN THE ULTIMATE ROBATTLE!!!
