Disclaimer: I do not own Medabots, nor any of the characters from the original manga. Horumarin owns Medabots. I own myself and all of my characters. That including Akura, her mom, and both Foxfires. Do not sue me... yeah that's all I got, just don't do it. I'm too tired to come up with a better excuse... or any excuse for that matter XP
Dr. Yukienata held the frequency overloader above Foxfire, who was looking more than just tense. She was looking tense and feeling anxious.
The frequency overloader (FOL) resembled a stun gun with the two, small, sharp, metal points sticking out from the front.
"All right." She said. "Now as soon as Foxeye has gone offline, Foxy will have to make her appearance right after that. You'll have to forget everything about Foxeye and attack at full force.... Good luck."
Sumilidon, Rokusho and Metabee stood at the other end of the room already in fighting positions. Ikki and Koji standing on the side lines, Medawatches poised for command.
Dr. Aki and Karin were in the booth, holding the door open for when Dr. Yukienata would run in.
Foxfire took in a deep breath. Please let them be okay after all of this.
ZZZT!
A second later Foxfire's head bowed and she fell to the ground in a heap. One side of her was unconscious.
Dr. Yukienata pocketed the FOL and walked into the booth. "It'll take her a few seconds to come online. Stay frosty."
"Nervous?" Koji asked, giving Ikki a side-glance but keeping his gaze on the FOX type's body.
"Nah. You?" Truthfully Ikki was excited. Metabee had been right about Foxy just being a new Robattling challenge. And every challenge they had came to yet had been defeated.
"Course not." Koji was just as happy. They had good reason to be confident. Three, strong Medabots against one strong femme. They waited a good few minutes for som sign of movement.
Finally, a sign of life. A loud yawn came from Foxfire's body. The form stretched out her shoulder, flexing her tail joints.
She lifted up her head and looked at them sleepily. "Hmm? Have you guys finished already?"
"What?!" Koji and Ikki exclaimed, completely bewildered. The Medabots were giving the FOX a funny look as well.
"Did you guys beat her?" Foxfire got to her feet and looked at them all, clasping her hands together in hope.
"F-Foxeye? That you?" Ikki asked, raising an eyebrow curiously. It can't be her... can it?
"Well—who else could it be? Wow you guys don't even have a scratch on you; you're even stronger than I thought. She must've been easy pickings."
----
"What the?!" Dr. Aki stood up from his chair and stared at the scene incredulously. "How can she—"
"It's not her." Dr. Yukienata glared. "Darn it, she's gotten clever to what we're doing and now she's trying to pretend she's Foxeye."
The female doctor went up to the controls and pulled up the microphone to speak through the PA system.
-----
"Boys!" A loud voice spoke through the speakers in the corners of the ceiling. Foxfire winced, clutching her ears. Koji and Ikki looked up.
"Dr. Yukienata?"
"That's NOT your Foxfire. It's just Foxy trying to trick you. Trust me there is no way it can be her. She is offline. Don't fall for her tricks!"
"Oh hush up!" Foxfire shouted with a pout, still holding her ears. The three Medabots exchanged looks of shock. Foxfire looked as if she had lost at her favorite game or something rather... and it looked as if she might have just lost at her game.
"You tricked us!" Ikki yelled. Foxfire gave him a narrow glare while dropping her arms.
"Nothing gets by you, does it?" She said sarcastically, crouching down. Ikki sweat dropped.
"Koji, let's catch her on the ground and let Rokusho take her by the air." He said. Koji nodded.
"Sumilidon, use your speed to take her out on the ground."
"Metabee, let Sumilidon try to catch her and see if you can slow her down with your bullets. Aim for her legs. Rokusho." The KWG looked up at the call of his name. Ikki smiled. "Rokusho you've got to get her if she tries to escape in the air. Bring her down if you can." Rokusho nodded in acknowledgement.
Foxfire took in everything they said, not making an expression or sound from her crouched down position. Just waving her tail from above back and forth.
"Go... NOW!"
Metabee stood his ground, aiming his guns while Sumilidon pushed off on his feet and raced towards the FOX. Foxfire jumped up, just as Ikki had predicted and Rokusho jumped right after her.
Foxfire slid her blades to her shooter pockets but instead of shooting stuck them out and latched into the ceiling.
"W-what?!" Ikki clenched his teeth. He'd never heard of Foxfire trying a move like that! He had been counting on his learning of her past Robattles.
But then again... he'd never heard of Foxfire robattling inside a room.
When Rokusho came to bat her down, Foxfire ended up kicking him straight in the face, damaging his optic visor and knocking him back down to the ground.
Metabee took his chance to start shooting. Ikki by then had already came up with a new strategy.
"Metabee, keep going for her legs."
"What?!" Koji shouted. "Take out her arms, that'll bring her down and take those blades out of commission!"
"Trust me. Koji we have to get her to use her elements."
Ikki proceeded to let Koji in on the plan, but was careful not to let Foxfire hear him.
"Guys! Make as much noise as possible!"
Metabee looked at him like he was crazy. "Whaat?!" Ikki smiled.
"Foxfire has really sensitive hearing! She fell out of a tree just from a yell once and it hurt her when the PA system came on!"
Foxfire growled at Ikki, dropping down to the ground. She was about to pounce at him when Metabee turned up the volume to his audio transmission.
"FOXEH!" Metabee shouted out at her, cupping his hands around his audio transmission to echo it slightly.
The FOX hissed and shut off her optics in pain. "Stupid KBT!" Her anger was rising now. And that was exactly what Ikki wanted.
Rokusho and Sumilidon caught onto the plan and used their hammer fists to pound against the walls and floor.
Foxfire staggered and from the vibrations on the floor, optics wincing in pain, her tail tense and flinching at every noise. But that wasn't all she had to worry about. Metabee started firing at her legs. She hadn't even taken that into recognition and soon enough her legs were out.
Metabee's yelling, Sumilidon and Rokusho's pounding on the walls. Even now Koji and Ikki and joined in by shouting out loud.
---------
It was so loud that even the trio in the booth were covering their ears. Dr. Aki smiled and rolled over on his rolling chair and turned up the volume as high as it would go on the PA system, turned it on, then brought the microphone towards the speakers.
---------
Suddenly out from the PA system came the loud high-pitched ringing, crippling Foxfire to her knees.
Ikki and Koji covered their ears, but keeping their eyes open and continued watching Foxfire's actions.
The FOX couldn't take it anymore. Any longer and her whole system would collapse. She struggled to her feet, hands away from her ears. She panted in and out; tail drooped to the floor. Foxfire looked up at them all; optics open but narrowed to a glare.
But her glare went wide, optics glazing to a whitish silver color. Foxfire raised her arms, the one way mirror glass shaking violently.
"This is it!" Ikki yelled, nudging Koji. Koji saw Foxfire's attack coming, and knew exactly how to take care of it.
"Sumilidon!" He yelled into his Medawatch. The TGR type looked up from smashing against the wall. "Use your disrupter beams as soon as Foxfire attacks!"
Foxfire's hearing was shot; she couldn't hear a word the others were saying. She had all her focus on her attack. It was her last resort. Not only would it get the Medabots but it would get their Medafighters too.
