~Chapter 3~





~Robattle--Meda-Morphs Style!~


(Author's note: Hello, all! What's up? Pleeeease don't say the sky, that's so old...lol. Anyways, I'm right not going to take the
time to answer the first few requests I got for my fic(Don't worry, if you did make a request after I wrote this, I'll try and include
my answers in the next chapter). First thing-- The rubber robo gang WILL appear in this fic, and play a good role, too. But, they will
not be metamorphs, because I wouldn't be able to decide which medabots to mix them with, because they have too many. Rintaro and his
medabot *might* appear,but I haven't decided yet. In this time of the fic, they don't know him yet, after all. The meda-morphs sadly
cannot use other medaparts, because of their human parts. Have you ever seen a human exchange an arm with somebody else's arm, like it
was nothing? *shudders* And maybe, the screws will come in, too. There'sa 80% chance of that happening, I haven't decided yet. And one
more thing-- I'm ok with IKKi/Erika relationships, but I think Metabbe/Brass ones are sooo kaiwaii! So, There will be Sailor Erika/Meta-Ikki
relationships in here, and maybe SumiliKoji/NeutraKarin romance, too. Well, that's all for now, on with this chapter! Peace!)


"This is stupid!" SumiliKoji fumed, "Whydon't we justgo out there and face 'em? They already know we're here!"

"He's got a point," sighed NeutraKarin.

"Do you really want to risk it?" whispered Rokusho.

"No," Meta-Ikki said firmly. "There's always a chance that they WON'T find us...just keep hope, it'll come through,"



Suddenly, the bushes were rapidly brushed apart by a pair of pale skinned fingers, as a woman with long strawberry blonde hair peeked in,
with a smirk crossing her face. "Ah-ha!" she called out.

"So much for hope," Sailor Erika grumbled.

Meta-Ikki grinted his teeth, growling in fustration. "Crud,"

"Thought you could get away, kiddies?" Valentina smirked. "Well, not this time!"

Everyone but Rokusho glanced at each other. What did she mean? They didn't escape from anywhere, as far as they knew...

Rokusho growled a bit, narrowing his optics, and clenching his fist. "Leave them alone, you fiend!"

Valentina raised an eyebrow high. "And who might you be, medabot?"

"None of your buisness," Rokusho snapped.

Valentina frowned. "Get out of the way, you bug!" she raged, backhanding Rokusho,who was tooken for surprise, and couldn't defend himself. He
shook his head after a few seconds of dizziness after landing flat on his rear end, and growled at Valentina. He got up, and ran back towards
the meda-morphs, to defend his...'friends', he thought. "I'll tell you once more, leave them ALONE!"

"No, Rokusho! You'll just get hurt!" NeutraKarin pleaded.

"Sorry, but I have got to do this," Rokusho muttered.

Then, SumiliKoji and Meta-Ikki took a step forward, beside Rokusho.

"Then, we'll help you," smiled SumiliKoji.

"Ya, you've already helped us so much, so we're gonna help you!" Meta-Ikki agreed.

"Meta-Ikki, SumiliKoji..." Rokusho said softly.

"Enough with your idel chit-chat!" Valentina growled, "If you really wanna get trashed by me and my medabot, then so be it! Transport...Medabot!"
A stream of thin red light came from Valentina's meda-watch, as a medabot appeared. It was a bird-like medabot, almost like a crow. It had a pure
black head with a long, golden beak sticking out from the area where a mouth would usually lay, and had dark violet optics. At the end if it's
neck, it had a bunch of white steel feathers, like a necklace. It had ebony coloured wings, with thin silver arms strapped underneath them. It also
had an ebony steel feathered body, and large silver feathers coming out of it's rear end. It also had cilinder-ish markings on it's stomach, and
compleate with a set of yellow bird-like legs. It let out a dangerous battle cry, after the transportation was compleate.

"Ok, let's go teach these freaks a lesson, Skyraidar!" smuggly said Valentina.

VITAL STATS
CRW-123563
Skyraidar, Crow-Type
MedaFighter-Valentina
Special attack-Steel Wing

Meta-Ikki narrowed his optics, and growled. For some reason, that Medabot made him uneasy. He sensed something about him...but he didn't know quite
what it was. Rokusho felt the same way.

'I don't like this, Ikki,' said Metabbe, inside of Meta-Ikki's body. 'I feel a strange energy from him.'

'Same here,' agreed Ikki.

"Then, it's agreed!" Out of nowhere, appeared Mr. Referee, as he fell from the sky, and landed on his feet, in the middled of Skyraidar, Rokusho,
Meta-Ikki, and SumiliKoji. Meta-Ikki's optics softened, his focus on Skyraidar lost.

"I officially declare this a submission ro-battle, Meta-Ikki, Rokusho, and SumiliKoji against Skyraidar! Medabots ready? Medabots...ROBATTLE!!" yelled
out Mr. Referee, slicing his hand down. He seemed to not notice the fact that Meta-Ikki, SumiliKoji, Sailor Erika, and NeutraKarin were meda-morphs!

"OK, Skyraidar, take to the air!" Valentina ordered.

Skyraidar did as he was told, extended his wings, and flew into the air, just out of reach of Rokusho and the meda-morphs.

'Metabee, let's use laser cannon!' suggested Ikki inside of Meta-Ikki's head.

'No, seeker missle!' agrued Metabee.

'Ugh, listen! We should start off small!'

'No! This is my body, too!' growled Metabee.

'Listen to me!'

Outside, Meta-Ikki had a look of struggle on his face, frozen in spot, trying to start running.

"What's wrong with Meta-Ikki?" asked Rokusho worriedly.

"Got me," simply said SumiliKoji, running close by Skyraidar. He kept on glancing at Skyraidar,looking for an opertunity to strike.

"Steady...now!!" boomed Valentina.

Skyraidar let out a shrill battle cry, as he swooped down towards SumiliKoji. His black steel wings glowed even darker, but he wasn't using his steel
wing attack; he was using something that CRW-type medabots were not able to use use! He sliced his wing into SumiliKoji's flexor sword arm, as he let
out a cryof pain. He fell on on knee, as heused his other arm to sheild his wound.

"SumiliKoji!" gasped Rokusho, he narrowed his optics, glancing at Skyraidar. "You'll pay for that!" he growled.


"NeutraKarin, maybe you can use your healing powers to help SumiliKoji!" suggested Sailor Erika, worried.

"Umm...I'll try," gulped NeutraKarin. She rushed towards SumiliKoji, but then felt the same fate as SumiliKoji, just as she was about to heal him. She
screamed out in pain as the dark wing sliced into his chest. She fell beside SumiliKoji, shivering, with her eyes half closed, laying there. "The...
darkness.." she muttered herself.

"NeutraKarin!!" Rokusho and Sailor Erika both shouted out.


Meta-Ikki's attention snapped towards the battle. He moved his metal head towards SumiliKoji and NeutraKarin quickly, seeing them in...pain...

'Oh, no!' Ikki said in Meta-Ikki's mind. 'See what our squabbling has done?! SumiliKoji and NeutraKarin are hurt, badly!'

'Oh, blame it on me, why don't you!'hissed Metabee.

'No...it's...my fault...all mine...' said Ikki, a virtual tear coming down his face.

'Wha...?' Metabee said, stunned. He couldn't believe it, it was the first time that Ikki had ever not blamed him, and this time, it pretty much WAS his
fault! 'Ikki...'


"Alright, that's it!" raged Sailor Erika, "I'm going in!" Sailor Erika raced in as fast as she could, and eyed SkyRaidar angerly. She stopped just under
where Skyraidar was flying, and used her long range shooting on him. It scratched the CRW-type medabot, but did very little damage, due to it's emence
speed, as it flew out of range.

Valentina laughed cruelly. "You think THAT is going to defeat Skyraidar? Think again! Skyraidar is boosted up by it's dark medal, not only that, but even
without it, it's speed serves as it's defence, and it has pretty good offence. Face it, your toast!"

"Dark medal?" puzzled Rokusho. 'THAT'S the energy I felt...darkness...'

"Skyraidar, take that Sailor freak down!" Valentina said into her medawatch smuggly.

Skyraidar cawed dangerously, as it's wings glowed once more.He swooped down on Sailor Erika, before she could react, he sliced into Sailor Erika's head
with his dark steel wing attack, as she screamed out. She was tossed aside by the wind coming from Skyraidar's wings, as he flapped them. SumiliKoji winced
as Sailor Erika was tossed into him, releasing the pressure on his wound. His bright green optics dimmed, as he was knocked down, and layed down, very still,
Sailor Erika laying on his Flexor sword arm, her optics closed. Neutranurse felt Sailor Erikacrash onto her, too, and her optics closed as well. All of their
wounds produced by Skyraidar were glowing ebony on the outside of them, oil slightly oosing out.

"No!!" Rokusho screamed out, his optics closed; he would have cried if he could. Rokusho opened them aburubtly, as he growled, turning towards Skyraidar, his
eyes glowing red. "You'll pay FOR THAT!!!" he shouted out. His rare medal glowed, as his body also glowed silver.

"The...medaforce!" Verra gasped fearfully.

"Skyraidar's toast!!" Robert whinned.

Valentina simply chuckled. "Do not worry...Skyraidar's dark medal will stop him!"

Skyraidar nodded, as Valentina laughed evilly.

Rokusho narrowed his optics, as he readied his attack.


'We need to work together, Metabee! That's the only way we'll be able to fight, and hopefully defeat Skyraidar!' said Ikki.

'...Your right! I'm.....sorry,' Metabee appologized.

'I'm sorry, too.' said Ikki.

'Let's get meda-busy!'

Ikki nodded. 'Right!'


"MEDA--" Rokusho was stopped short, by a dark blast of energy, coming from Skyraidar's beak! He was knocked back into the pile
of injured meda-morphs, his optics closed, and his aura fading.

"Se? What did I tell ya?" smirked Valentina.


"....THAT'S ENOUGH!!!"


"Huh?" Valentina turned to Meta-Ikki, with an angry look on his face, and now able to move. Valentina had forgotten about him!

"You messed with the wrong people, lady! I don't know who your are, but your going down!" growled Meta-Ikki.

Valentina laughed out loud. "You think YOU can stop us? Your friends couldn't do it, so how can you? Besides, your not people,
or medabots, your monsters!"

"Oh, now I'm REALLY angry!" huffed Meta-Ikki.

"Ooo, and I suppose that your gonna get angry and shoot pebbles at us," Valentina sneered in baby talk, then laughed a bit.
"Just try."

Meta-Ikki growled a bit, anime arrows appearing on his head. "That's it! Let's get meta-busy!"

"Show use what you got," Valentina said, and stopped laughing.

'let's go!' said Ikki.

'Right!' Metabee agreed.

"Laser Cannon!" shouted out Meta-Ikki, zeroing in on Skyraidar. Skyraider got scratched a bit, but not badly, as he took to the
air once more. Meta-Ikki looked up, to see that Skyraidar was getting ready to attack with his dark steel wing attack. Meta-Ikki
reconized this, as jumped out the way, just in time. He grunted, a she landed on his purple coloured palms. He grinted his teeth,
as he got up as soon as his KBT-type body would let him. Skyraidar took that moment of weakness to use a normal steel wing attack
on Meta-Ikki, which sent him to the ground once more. Inside of Meta-Ikki's mind, he heard an electronic voice in his head say,
"Warning, 30% damage to left arm. 50% damage to head." 'Dammit,'he thought in both voices.

'Ikki, let's take him down quickly with seeker missle!' proposed Metabee.

'Ok, let's go!' agreed Ikki, as Meta-Ikki got up. "MISSLE...LAUCHED!!" Meta-Ikki grunted, senting out a couple of seeker missles
at Skyraidar. It hit Skyraidar dead on, as Valentina's silver medawatch rang, "Warning, 40% damage to body, 20% damge to right
wing. Valentina's teeth grinted. "Drill peck, Skyraidar," whispered Valentina.

Skyraidar cawed out his battle call, as he flapped his wings, to kept flight. He swooped down on Meta-Ikki quietly, his beck swirling
around for his attack, taking Meta-Ikki for surprise.

"WAHHHH!" Meta-Ikki cried out, unable to move, waiting for impact...and it came, knocking him down again. "Warning, 90% damage to legs,
100% damage to arms, arm function ceased, 70% damage to head, 80% damage to body." Meta-Ikki groaned, his optics closing a little. He
ached all over, one of the downsides to being half human at the time. He heard the evil laugh from Valentina, as he got up.

"Give up?" Valentina asked smuggly.

"...NEVER!!!" Meta-Ikki roared, racing towards Skyraidar, as he landed on the soft ground of the pebble road. Meta-Ikki used his seeker
missles on Skyraidar, but Skyraidar 'back-winged' them. Skyraidar growled, releasing another normal steel wing attack on Meta-Ikki.
Meta-Ikki cried out in pain, as he was knocked beside the pile of falling friends. "Warning, 100% damage to body and legs, 95% damage
to head,"

Meta-Ikki groaned. "Man, do I ever feel like meda-trash," he muttered to himself. "I couldn't fight anymore if my life depended on it..
which it probably does.."

"Meta-Ikki.."

"Huh?" Meta-Ikki's optics widened.

"Meta-Ikki...please, don't give up," weakly said Sailor Erika, her optics barely open, "Your our last hope...please, Meta...Ikki.."

"Sailor..Erika.." Meta-Ikki said. She was right, he WAS their last hope! But how could he fight if he couldn't even walk?!

"Meta-Ikki..you need to use.....the medaforce..." mumbled Sailor Erika.

"What?" Meta-Ikki replied, "The medaforce? But...I can't, I've been trying to do that at least three times in this robattle, but I
still haven't! I can't..." he repeated.

"Please...you must--" Sailor Erika said, but was cut short by Valentina.

"Shut up!" Valentina hissed. "Drill peck, SkyRaidar!"

Skyraidar did as he was told, and swooped down on Sailor Erika, his beak spinning rapidly, he dug it into Sailor Erika. She screeched
at the top of her metal lungs, as she was pushed a bit further away, and dug a few centimeters into the ground. Sailor Erika's medal
would have popped out, if she wasn't half human, or if the ground wasn't holding her medal case in place.

Meta-Ikki's optics widened even more. He felt like his heart shattered, just like Sailor Erika's chest was close to shattering. He
felt so sad and so...mad! "No....NO!!!!!" He cried out in pain, trying to get up. "LEAVE HER ALONE!!!!!!!" he shouted at the top of
his lungs. His eyes glowed emerald green, as his kabuto medal shone brightly. His whole body glowed shimmering gold. He was calling on
the ledgendary medaforce! "Dude...I rock." he chuckled to himself.

"The medaforce...again!" said Robert, slapping his forehead.

"HAHAHA!" laughed Valentina, "You think your puny medaforce will save you? Think again! That medabot Rokusho tried his medaforce on
Skyraidar, and all that got him was a one way ticket to the dump!"

"Maybe," huffed Meta-Ikki, "But I'm not a medabot! I'm a medamorph!!"

Valentina narrowed her eyes, and growled. "Skyraidar, take him out with your dark beam attack!"

"Bring it!" challedged Meta-Ikki.

Skyraidar growled a bit, as he readied the same attack that had trashed Rokusho.

Meanwhile, Meta-Ikki seemed pretty calm, as he readied his attackas well. He brought all of the energy flowing in his metal body down
to his shooters.

'Let's do this, Ikki!' Metabee said.

'Right!' nodded Ikki.

'We are one, and the same!' they both shouted out inside of Meta-Ikki's head.

"It's time...the kiss your 'bot goodbye!!! Medaforce!!!" Meta-Ikki booomed, letting go of the medaforce from his shooters, streams of
powerful golden light came out, racing towards it's target, who had also just released it's dark beam attack. Both attacks hit each other
dead one, both equally strong! Back and forth, both attacks pushed at each other, trying to hit it's target. Meta-Ikki had thoughts of who
he was fighting for the whole time,and the last one he thought of was...Sailor Erika...

Fueled up, Meta-Ikki roared out, as the streams of light became stronger, and overwelmed the dark beam attack. It disintergrated, and the
medaforce went straight through, as it hit Skyraidar, full force. It lit up the whole area, as Skyraidar dark medal popped out, leaving
his body lifeless.

Valentina screamed in horror, and she picked up both Skyraidar's medal and body, as the three evil people flied. "We'll be baaaaaack!"
shouted Verra, as they disappeared into the distance.

A few seconds later, the light of the medaforce showered apond Rokusho, SumiliKoji, NeutraKarin, and Sailor Erika, who were weakly watching
(or listening) to the whole one-on-one battle. Mr. Referee had disappeared a while ago, and couldn't annouce the winner of the robattle.
The medaforce fully healed all of the meda-morphs, and Rokusho, and they stood up.

"Ya!! Meta-Ikki did it!" NeutraKarin cheered.

Meta-Ikki clenched his fists, as he continued to shout out, the access energy of the medaforce draining away. He loosened his gripe, and
stopped screaming. His optics softened, as hefelt enormous pain flow throughout himself. He moaned, as he fell to his knees, totally weak.
Just as he was about to fall on his face, Sailor Erika dived for him, and caught him just in time. "Meta-Ikki? Meta-Ikki,are you ok?" she asked
worriedly, turning his face towards him. "You...saved us!"

Meta-Ikki laughed weakly, as he mumbled, "Me go sleepy now. Nighty night.." His optics closed shut, as he went limp in Sailor Erika's arms.
