Chapter 8: Final Battle
The battle raged on, with Zoids exploding left and right. With huge casualties and each side, and still growing. Oni and Frost were competing to see how many Imperial Zoids they could destroy. "Ten" Oni said as Frost buzzed in "I'm not being out-counted by a amateur! Ha! Eleven!" Naomi sighed under her breath and thought, "They act like kids!" Suddenly, the Imperial Army split in half, revealing a path, which led from the Zoid Eve, to the Mercenaries.
The Zoid Eve let out a growl, then a roar and then charged its attack. "We've got to attack it before it's done charging!" Yelled Frost over the Intercom. He charged in, guns blazing, to be struck down by the tail of the Zoid Eve. "Frost!" Oni and Naomi yelled in unison as he hit the ground. Shaking, Frost got back up, and tried it again. As last time, again the monstrous Zoid knocked him down. "Come on guys, if he charges the Shadow Blast Cannon, we'll all be done for!" Frost said getting up a third time. "The cold voice of the Zoid Eve Pilot was heard throughout the commo systems. "You insolent little fool. Do you seriously think you can destroy my Zoid, the Zoid Eve, the most powerful of all Zoids?" "I'll defeat you!" Frost said before the Zoid Eve pilot added "Or Die Trying!"
"I, Zeric, will defeat you all, little republican vermin, with my Shadow Blast!" The Zoid Eve whipped around, and its tail pointed straight out, aiming at Oni. "Time to Die, Oni Koshu!" Zeric yelled laughing maniacally as a huge dark beam shot from the Zoid Eve's Tail. "Oni NO!" Frost yelled, jumping in the way of the shot. The blast engulfed Frost's Zoid killing him instantly. Remnants of Frost's Summoner littered the battlefield. "I.missed. I NEVER MISS!" Zeric yelled as he charged for another attack.
Rage flowed through Oni "You just killed my best FRIEND!" he shot toward Zeric, dodging other Zoids as well as cross fire. "It's your turn Zeric!" Oni leaped up, slashing at Zeric's tail. "Insolent Fool! You dare challenge me?" Zeric swung around, and hit Oni. "I can't lose! Not like this!" Oni said as his ShadowCat started to glow. "What.What's happening." Oni thought as he let go of the controls.
Inside the cockpit, data streamed across the vid-screen, followed by 2 words flashing. "Giga Blast". "Sure, why not?" Oni thought to him self as he jammed the button, and the cockpit got really hot. The ShadowCat hummed as it launched a canister into the sky, with recoil that Oni thought would give him whiplash. Then on autopilot, it ran next to Naomi and put up the shield.
After about 5 seconds, the canister burst open, revealing a small glowing rod, which made a huge dome shape around the Zoid Eve, as well as most of the troops. "What is this trickery around me? Some kind of shield?" Zeric asked as the dome's power revealed itself. Everything inside of it started to push to the ground, as if there was an invisible force stepping on them. Screams were heard on the commo but stopped when, with one flash of light, everything was flattened, followed by an explosion of fuel tanks. The rest of the army either surrendered peacefully, or tried to fight and died. The war was over, for now.
