COUNTER PARTS-CAS COMBAT
A white Zoid cut straight through a Rev Raptor's leg. The large Zoid fell to the ground. "Well, that was easy," the pilot said. "Well, Ligar 0, I think I'm ready to meet my destined counter part." The pilot smiled with the shadows of the cockpit covering his upper part of his face.
"Well everyone, it's time again," Taros said as he walked into the hang out room. Ace, Iris, and Leo looked up.
"Who is it now?" Ace looked up smiling.
"Well," started Taros. "The ZBC has issued a battle between us and the Blade team."
"The Blade team?" asked Ace with a puzzled look on his face.
"They're a new team who's been climbing up in the ranks quickly," Jessie explained. "And very little data has been released about their team."
"Well, that doesn't sound too good," Iris remarked.
"Yeah and I gets worse," Leon said as he walked into the room.
"What's that?" Jessie asked.
"Well, you see. Leo's Shield Ligar was torn up pretty bad in the last battle with the Champ team. After that it's been hard repairing it. Also, our opponents are getting a lot stronger. So Leo's going to use a new Zoid this battle."
"What Zoid is it?" Iris asked.
"Come and see in the hanger," Leon replied as he lead the way out the door. The four warriors and Taros followed Leon out the door and to the Zoid hanger. "Here it is," Leon finally said as he pointed to a red Zoid.
"It's… it's a Blade Ligar!" gasped the stunned Leo.
"Wow! Where did you get that Leon?" asked Iris in amazement.
"It use to be mine, but now I'm giving it to my son," Leon answered.
"Th… thanks dad," Leo said still stunned.
"Wow a Blade Ligar!" Ace said happily. "Now we have a stronger team!"
"There you go son. Now you've earned it," smiled Leon. Leo gave his father a hug and looked up at his new partner.
"Wow, a Blade Ligar. I can't wait to try it out!" Leo excitedly yelled as he threw his fist into the air.
"Well then, let's get it prepared for tomorrow's battle," Doc Taros said.
The next day the blue and white Hover Cargo pulled up to a desert like area. Next a black and red Whale King landed. The Ligar 0, Blade Ligar and Helcat were launched. Soon a judge capsule landed. "The area with in a 30 mile radius is a designated Zoid battle field. Only authorized personal and combatants are aloud. Danger all others must leave the area at once," announced the judge.
"Hey, where's our enemy?" Ace asked as Ligar 0 roared.
"Right here," a voice said. The W.K.'s mouth opened up and three Zoids walked out. First was dark red Saber Tiger with rather large shoulders and back thighs. Equipped with a back mounted gattling rifle and a large missile pod. Then came a black Rev Raptor. It had side mounted 65 mm laser cannons attached to it and sharp claws. The finally came a Zoid that caught the whole Max team off guard. Out of the mouth of the Whale King came a white and black Zoid that resembled the Ligar 0. It had a white head and body, black legs and clad in white armor.
"Is that another Ligar 0?" Iris gasped in surprise.
"No, that Zoid has the look of Ligar. But it's a wolf type," Ace responded.
"Battlefield set up!" called the judge as the last three Zoids lined up. "The Max team vs. the Blade team. Ready… FIGHT!"
"I'm Jax Blade, leader of the Blade team," the pilot of the white Zoid said. "And this Zoid you are marveling at is the Konig Wolf."
"The Konig Wolf?" Leo repeated in surprise.
"It resembles the Ligar 0 in many ways. Which I'll show you, Ligar 0, my counter part," smiled Jax. The Konig Wolf let out a loud howl and ran toward the Ligar 0. The Ligar roared back and charged toward its opponent.
"Go LIGAR!" Ace yelled as the Ligar 0 jumped at the Konig Wolf. But the Wolf quickly dodged the attack by darting to the side. The Ligar landed and quickly turned. It then shot off its shock cannon at the K.W. Darting right to left as it moved forward toward the Ligar, the K.W.'s fore paws began to glow yellow.
"Strike Laser CLAW!" Jax called as the Konig Wolf lunged at the Ligar 0.
"Huh?!" Ace gasped in surprise. The Ligar quickly evaded the attack right before the Wolf slashed. "Whew, good going Ligar. But how did he do that?"
"Ha! The Konig Wolf has not only the mobility of your Zoid, but also has its trade mark attack," Jax smiled as the Wolf turned around and prepared to attack.
"You're my counter part, Iris," the pilot of the dark red Saber Tiger said.
"Then let's dance!" Iris said as her Zoid began to run. The Saber Tiger followed. It shot off its gattling rifle at the Helcat. The Helcat's tail mounted shield engaged and all the bullets rebounded off.
"Nice shield," the S. Tiger pilot said. The Helcat slid to a stop and turned quickly. It then unloaded rounds from its gattling rifle onto the S. Tiger. "Nice try, but I too have a shield. The Saber Tiger's tail whipped up and a shield engaged. Iris stopped firing her rifle and shot her 15 missile shot. "That' a good attack, but not good enough," replied the S. Tiger pilot. Then the large shoulders and back thighs of the S. Tiger opened up to reveal numerous missiles. The pilot locked on to the 15 missiles and shot off all the Zoid's missiles. The missiles collided but through the smoke, ten more flew out and barraged Iris.
"AHHHHHHHH!!!" Iris screamed as the barrage pummeled her.
"Well, it seems we both have blades," the Rev Raptor pilot said as large, curved blades whipped out form behind the Zoid.
"I guess so," Leo answered as his Zoid's blades extended as well. The two quickly lunged at each other and clashed their right blades together. The two Zoids were now in a power struggle and both pushed inward as hard as they could.
"Ha! I win!" the Rev R. pilot said in his cocky voice as his 65 mm laser cannon turned and shot Leo's Zoid right under its blade. The red Zoid flew to the side and crashed on its belly.
"Dang it!" Leo yelled as his Zoid got back up to its feet. But right as he got to his feet, the Rev Raptor was barraging Leo with its laser cannons. "I better run for now," Leo thought as the turned his Zoid and ran from the enemy.
The Konig Wolf lunged toward the Ligar 0 who quickly dodged to its right. It then rebounded off the ground and slammed into the K. Wolf. The two zoids fell to the ground as the Ligar was biting and clawing at the white armor of its opponent. The Konig Wolf quickly kicked the Ligar off with its hind legs and jumped at the fallen zoid. The ion boosters of the Ligar 0 engaged and it quickly evaded the attack. It then did a sliding turn and jumped high into the air toward the Konig Wolf. "STRIKE LASER CLAW!" Ace yelled as the Ligar 0 began to slash. But the Konig Wolf just jumped forward then upwards ramming its head into the underside of the Ligar 0.
"You are a formidable opponent Ligar 0," Jax smiled.
"Man his speed is just like Ligar's…" Ace said to himself. "… but not for long! Jessie, prepare Ligar 0 Jager!" Ace called to Jessie. The Ligar 0 then turned toward the Hover Cargo and ran toward it.
"So, going for a transformation huh?" Jax smiled as he turned his zoid around. "I guess I better prepare myself as well." The Konig Wolf also ran in the opposite direction toward the Whale King.
The Ligar 0 ran up into the gate. "Ligar 0 secured on maintenance deck!" Jessie said over the intercom. Ace turned the controls outward and pulled back. The mechanical arms came in and removed the white Zero armor. The side panel doors closed and the wall began to turn. "Activating system, JAGER!" Ace said as he turned the controls back up and pushed forward. The walls then stopped and opened up. Then mechanical arms came back and added the blue Jager armor. "Ligar 0 Jager, CAS complete!" Jessie said over the intercom.
"Go, JAGER!" Ace cried. The Ligar was then launched.
"Ha! You're not that tough!" the S. Tiger pilot said. Just then the Helcat disappeared. "Hey, where'd you go?" the pilot questioned. Soon the Tiger was barraged by bullets from a gattling rifle.
"Ha! Stealth, a great tool for a Helcat!" Iris said to herself as she barraged her enemy.
The two zoids with blades were now at a stand off. Both waited for the other to attack. Then the Blade Ligar's blades began to glow yellow and it prepared to pounce. The Rev Raptor also got ready to attack. After a few seconds the two lunged at each other.
"STRIKE LASER BLADE!" Leo cried. The Blade Ligar swiftly slammed into the Rev Raptor with its glowing right blade.
"NOOOOOO!!" the R. Raptor's pilot yelled as the thigh laser cannons turned toward the Blade Ligar. And just before the two landed, the cannons shot the Ligar in its belly area. The two fell hard to the ground immobile with both of their command systems frozen.
"Ha! Found ya!" the S. Tiger's pilot yelled as he shot all around Iris. The smoke revealed her zoid. "Now, take this!" then the Saber Tiger launched a large missile that opened into 10 small missiles.
"NO WAY!" Iris yelled in anger as she punched her screen that said command system freeze.
When the Ligar 0 Jager landed, Ace was struck with surprise. There in front of him and Ligar was the Konig Wolf, but with light red armor attacked to it. "It… it can transform too?" Ace forced out still stunned.
"Oh yes I did forget to mention that the Konig Wolf can also transform like the Ligar 0," Jax said to the stunned Ace.
"H… how? Who built the armor for you?" Ace questioned.
"Dr. Layon. An old friend and now enemy of Taros," Jax responded. "He left after the Back Draft group was dissolved and joined the High Jacx group. Which I am apart of."
"The High Jacx group? Then how come you're in a sanctioned battle?" asked Ace puzzled.
"I'm here for two things. One to find a rival. And two to find the only zoid that might stand a chance against my friend's zoid," Jax answered. "Unlike the Back Draft, we take part in certain sanctioned battles. But when we do have an unsanctioned battle, we make sure the ZBC never finds out. Now enough talk, let's begin!"
The K. Wolf then darted toward the Jager but much quicker than it had moved. The Ligar nearly managed to dodge the assault. "Man, he's gotten faster, but how? Jager is much faster than any other zoid of his class," Ace questioned himself.
"That's because my armor is a replica of your Jager. Except, I have three engines," Jax said. Then two mid sized ion boosters popped out from the sides of the K. Wolf and one on top. The zoid quickly ran past the Jager.
"Come on Ligar, we'll get him!" called Ace as he turned the controls in and pushed forward. The Ligar 0 Jager roared and its large ion boosters engaged. The Jager quickly shot off toward the K. Wolf. Both zoids ran at very high speeds straightforward. Suddenly the K. Wolf slammed into the side of the Ligar and ran ahead. The Jager quickly recovered and ran straight behind its enemy.
The Wolf led the Ligar into a narrow way of rocks with sharp turns. "Ha, now let's see if the Jager has superior mobility," Jax smiled as he began to cut the corner of the rink. Just then the side engines of the Wolf turned and it cut the sharp turn without a scratch.
"Ligar and I can take sharp turns too!" Ace replied as the Jager began to cut the corner. But instead of making a perfect turn, the Ligar slammed into one of the large rocks.
"See, the Jager cannot make such precise turns," remarked Jax as he cut an even sharper turn.
"Come on Ligar, show 'em he's wrong!" cried Ace. Now with the ion boosters cut off, the Ligar made its way down the stone hallway toward the sharper turn. "Here we go!" Ace smiled as the Jager was getting ready to turn. Ace angled the controls and the Jager's ion boosters rotated to push off the wall. But the Ligar still slid against the wall for a few seconds. "Aw, come on Ligar!" Ace groaned in anger. After coming out of the rock way, Ace found the K. Wolf waiting for him.
"Done playing around Ligar 0?" teased Jax.
"Grr, NO WAY! We're just getting started!" responded Ace. The two zoids engaged their ion boosters and ran the outstretched land. Both ran side by side. "AHHHHH!" cried Ace as he piloted the Jager into the Wolf. The Jager slammed hard into the Wolf and the enemy zoid lost its balance.
"AH! No way!" Jax replied in surprise as the Wolf fought to regain its footing.
"AHHHH! EAT THIS!" Ace cried back. Once again the Ligar slammed into the recovering Wolf. The Wolf fell hard to the ground.
"Kid, you're really getting on my nerves!" Jax yelled as he engaged the Wolf's ion boosters. The zoid shot forward and it pushed itself up back to its feet. The Ligar and Wolf ran in opposite directions. The Ligar circled around and ran toward the Wolf. The Wolf quickly cut its engines and did a slide turn then re-engaged the boosters as it ran toward the Ligar head on. Both zoids' fore legs and feet began to glow yellow. "STRIKE LASER CLAWWWWW!!!" Ace yelled as the Ligar jumped high into the air.
"Strike Laser CLAW!" cried Jax as his zoid did the same.
Both zoids' glowing claws collided and raw laser energy flew everywhere. In seconds both were thrown backwards and landed on their sides. Soon both got up and ran back at each other without their ion boosters on.
"Come on Ligar!" Ace beckoned.
"Now, let's see whose zoid is most superior!" yelled Jax.
"STRIKE LASER CLAWWWW!!!" Ace yelled again as the Ligar 0 Jager jumped high into the air.
"Strike Laser CLAW!" Jax once again cried as his zoid lunged at the Ligar. But right as the Konig Wolf was a few feet from it, the Ligar 0 itself turned its ion booster to the side. And with that the Ligar 0 flew quickly to the side of the Konig Wolf; evading the Wolf's attack but slashing its enemy in the right fore leg.
The Ligar 0 Jager landed on its feet and its glow disappeared while the Konig Wolf landed on its belly. "WOW! YEAH! Way to go Ligar! Smooth move back there!" Ace congratulated his partner. The Ligar 0 roared with happiness. The Jager later turned around to find that the Wolf was trying to get to its feet. "Now Ligar, let's deal the final blow!" Ace called as the Ligar 0 Jager roared and lunged at its enemy.
But just as the Ligar got to its enemy, the Wolf threw a glowing fore paw into the face of the Ligar 0. As the Ligar fell, its left claw slashed the Konig Wolf in the face. Then both zoids fell defeated.
BLAIRRRRRREE!!!!!! "The battle is over, the battle is over!" announced the judge. "The winner is… The Blade team!"
"What? Who on their team is left?" Ace asked.
"My Saber Tiger teammate," Jax said as he looked at his screen that read: command system freeze. "Well, Ligar 0 and Ace Striker, it seems we've tied. I guess we'll have to have another battle, huh?"
"Yeah, sounds good!" Ace replied.
Two hours later the red and black Whale King landed near a red base. A man walked into the base. In the shadow of the hanger the two people spoke. "So, Jax, your report my friend?" the man in the shadows asked.
"Well old friend," Jax began. "That zoid and its pilot are something else. With more experience they could be something more. But for a low class team member, he is good. And so is his zoid."
"Well of coarse his zoid is, it's an Ultimate X. Well, not a fully developed Ultimate X, yet…" the other person said.
NEXTIME:
WOW! A whole team of super Ligars! That sounds great! WHAT!? You want me and Ligar 0 on your team? I need to pass a test? Man this looks hard. Well, Ligar and I are gonna put you in your place. Next time on Zoids X:
