Chapter 5 Rumble
"Belzelgas Attack!!!!" ordered Pron. The 2 punching Medabots charged to attack Peppercat and Totalizer. Totalizer and Peppercat dodged the attack with ease. "Peppercat jump and hit one of them with an Electric Shock!" Samantha commanded. "Totalizer hit the other one with your Laser Beam!" Sloan said. "Right!" both Medabots confirmed. Peppercat jumped and gave one of the Belzelgas a real shock. While Totalizer fired a powerful beam of energy at the other. The Belzelgas took the hits full force and were unable to retaliate. "Warning Legs damaged 60%, Head damaged 40%." A voice said in Pron's Medawatch. "Wow there pretty good right Spyke?" asked Krosserdog. "Yeah!" Spyke agreed. "So, what do we do now?" seeing Totalizer and Peppercat doing most of the work.
On top of a nearby building Enchansator watched with amusement. "So those puny delinquents think they have the upper hand ?" Enchansator thought to himself. "Well when the time is right I'll make my move and this battle will be over. Shame the Screws aren't as tough as nailaughhh. Warning 30% damage to left leg." Krosserdog had just fired a dozen rounds at Enchansator. "Hey can't a guy narrate to himself anymore you dog!" shouted Enchansator. Krosserdog answered with another barrage of bullets. 'Hmmm, this mutt is persistent... Looks like it's time for me to show my true power Steroid Ray!"
Enchansator fired beams of purple light at the Belzelgas bathing them in eerie purple light. Slowly the Belzelgas got larger, their arms and legs grew as if inflated, and their previous injuries seemingly healed. In a flash they had punched Totalizer and Pepper cat to the ground. "Hahaha! Feel the might of my Steroid Ray you pathetic excuse for a gang." Enchansator laughed, but didn't notice that Krosserdog was right behind him. "Okay Krosserdog, now it's our turn! Hit him with a spear!" Krosserdog swiftly headbutted Enchansator off the building. Luckily the ground broke his fall. "90% all damage function cease imminent!" Pron's Medawatch warned. Krosserdog looked below to oversee his handiwork. Enchansator had been immensely damaged and was curled into a fetal position. One of his ammo slings was missing. "Ha!" gasped Enchansator. "A surprise attack impressive Krosserdog..." He slowly uncurled. "But allow me to show you the true capacity of my abilities... ULTIMATE STEROID TRANSFORMATION!!!!"
Enchansator had fired his Steroid Ray at himself. His injuries also seemed to heal and he appeared to grow more muscular as the seconds passed. When it was over he was well over 4ft. He laughed maniacally. "As you can see I can use my Steroid Ray not just on my teammates but on myself. We're giving you a second chance to give up Screws! Otherwise we'll have to tear up your Medabots starting with you're pretty little kitty!" "No!" "What?" Enchansator turned and saw Krosserdog leaping off the building. "Krosserdog Elbow Drop!!!" Spyke yelled. Krosserdog slammed his elbow into Enchansator full force. "Aargh!" cried Enchansator. "Warning 50% to right arm" Spyke's Medawatch blinked. "Warning 60% all damage." Pron's Medawatch beeped. "You just don't know when you're beat, do you Krosserdog?" asked Enchansator. "I'm tired of your persistence you lousy mutt! As of now I'll use every last Energy Pill to turn you into a pile of junk. Along with your Medal!" Enchansator crushed the remaining pills in his hands and all his wounds vanished. Now he was 6ft tall and extremely muscular. "Now" he said, pointing to the dog type. "You die!"
Enchansator rushed at Krosserdog. Spyke's Medabot fired round after round of ammunition at the charging behemoth but to no avail. The drug crazed fiend gave an earth shattering punch to Krosserdog's chest sending him crashing into a wall. Then gave him a kick to the gut, and barraged him with punches. "Warning arms at 20%" Spyke's Medawatch alerted. "You better give up kid. Enchansator is quite irked and you don't like him when he's irked." Pron said. Images of the destroyed Bebots went through Spyke's mind. "Krosserdog fall back." "No boss..." Krosserdog replied. Spyke was shocked. "But if you don't surrender this guy will destroy you." "Spyke... Remember the promise we made awhile back? You said 'No matter what. Win or lose. Never give up Krosserdog.' And I still don't intend to. Not today..." Krosserdog stated, staggering up. For a moment all was still. The Belzelgas just stood there. Tottalizer and Peppercat got up. Spyke had a mixed look of fear and surprise. Pron just laughed.
"Ha ha ha! Personally boy I'm impressed with your Medabot. I mean after getting a huge beat down I'm amazed that he can even stand up! Setting up this match was so worth it!" "What, what do you mean set this match up?!" shouted Samantha. "Well, you might as well know what you were fighting for since you're about to lose." Pron said. He fished out 3 objects from his pocket, all small, and golden. They were medals. Pron spoke "You see I heard from a reliable source that you were going to battle the 3bs. So a few minutes before the match I sent their Medabots to oblivion, or I would have if Enchansator hadn't saved these little beauties." He held the medals up. "I told those runts that if you guys beat me I'd give their medals back. Fat chance of that happening. Oh well, Enchansator finish this!" Enchansator charged again and was about to deliver another punch to Krosserdog. Then he flipped him. Just as Enchansator was about to deliver the final blow Krosserdog bent down and flipped him over. As soon as the muscle bound marauder hit the ground Krosserdog fired multiple shots at him. This only made him angrier. "So you're arms are at 20% eh? Well ain't much use for them now eh?" Enchansator quickly got up and grabbed Krosserdg by the arms and tore them off.
Every Medafighter knows that once you disarm a shooting Medabot it's about as useful as a burned out match. Though there are moments when the Medabot has enough fight in it to keep up a pathetic excuse for a robattle. This unfortunately is one of those moments. Enchansator threw the arms away and savagely beat Krosserdog down. Courageously Krosserdog tried to fight back with kicks and headbutts but all that effort seemed to amuse Enchansator. Strangely Enchansator never even touched the head. It wasn't until later did they realize it was a sick way for Krosserdog to feel every bit of pain he was being inflicted upon. Enchansator held Krosserdog up. "I bet you thought you were some kind of hero when you didn't surrender, right? Well here's an old saying I like to tell all my "heroes" before they croak. Never mistake lunacy for courage." He said before slamming him down. Really hard.
"This is crazy!" thought Peppercat. She looked at Spyke who appeared helpless. "If this keeps up we're going to need to get Spyke a new Medabot and a psychiatrist." She looked at her turtle ally and at her opponents. "Hold on a minute." The Belzelgas were slowly reverting back to their original state. "Great, if I hit them now we may be able to win this thing! But..." She looked at Enchansator bludgeoning Krosserdog. "I can't let him suffer anymore." She had a choice: an agonizing defeat or a hollow victory. So mustering her will power she said the three words she thought she'd never say again... To save her friend. "I give up."
"Well I was wondering when you would come to your senses." Pron said. "And the winner is Team Enchansator!" Mr. Referee declared. Spyke was relieved it was over. "You've got to be joking!" Enchansator chuckled. "You expect me to let this fool live?! After all his annoying actions?!!! No, old man this dog shall die like one." "But if you proceed you forfeit and have to give a meda..." "I know the rules referee. And I'll gladly pay the price." Enchansator picked Krosserdog up, and was about to give him another beating when he almost was hit by a familiar crimson cat. Peppercat apparently tried to hit Enchansator but hit Krosserdog instead. "Sorry you couldn't save you're friend cat." Enchansator mocked. "I'm sorry too." Peppercat said tired from the battle.
Enchansator crumpled what was left of Krosserdog's body and threw them as he did the arms, unceremoniously. "I've been looking for a rival to respect." He looked at the remains of the courageous fighter. "And I'm still looking." Pron transported his Medabots and gave the medals as the prize. He then casually walked away and disappeared into another alley. Mr. Referee left too, leaving The Screws to count their losses.
"Well we won..." said Sloan. Spyke was silent. "Look Spyke I'm really sorry." Samantha comforted. Spyke looked at her and sighed. "Darn it!" She said pounding a nearby dumpster. "If I hadn't been so gullible none of this would have happened!" "Don't worry boss" said Spyke. "It wasn't your fault. It was me!" tears were now streaming his face. "I made him make that stupid promise! If he had just gave up then he'd still be here." He picked up Krosserdog's symbol. "He'd still be alive." Samantha looked down at her crying comrade. She thought of ordering him to stop. That usually worked, but he didn't look like he needed an order at the moment. All the years she had known him she had never seen him this bad. No matter how many losses, insults, or injuries. He always seemed to get back on his feet before falling down again. Both she and Sloan wanted to comfort him, sedate him, anything. Samantha was on the verge of giving Spyke a hug when Totalizer inquired. "Why are you so happy Peppercat?" "Well Totalizer though this isn't a good time to say this but." She held out her hand "We may have won the battle." She opened it up for all to see, in it held a shiny medal with a picture on it. No, not just a picture. Tears of sorrow were replaced with tears of joy as Spyke saw what it was. It was a monkey. "I think we won the war." Samantha was never hugged so hard.
