Pogi: I'm just doing what I think's right... What are YOU doing here?
Maria: Max said I need exposure to FF.N, so I have to give an intro to the chapter.

Maria: Thanks. (winks) Here's the next chapter of the Showdown!
************************************
Somewhere up in the sky, the Raynos tried all its best to dodge the missiles the Stormsworder kept launching. Skyhigh tried all he could to dodge the shots, knowing that his only way of defeatig Chakra were the others down below.
Skyhigh: I could really use some help here!
Chakra: I'm starting to get a little tired of this. I don't know why I'm keeping you around like this.
Anne: (pops up) Then why don't you fight me!?
Chakra looked out her window and found that the Mystic Horse was flying right up to the Stormsworder with its energy shield. Right before the Mystic Horse crashed the underside, the Stormsworder quickly went to the side, dodging the attack.
Chakra: That was close.. next time I become careless, I could end up dead.
Somewhere down below, all the other Zoids were helping shooting the Stormsworder. Lineback was being carried into the Guardian Force Whale King by Stoller and Magpie. Soon after, Magpie quickly went to the main control room and contacted Leena, Chris, Naomi, Omari, Kirkland, Dave and Harry.
Magpie: I think we should retreat now.
Omari: What do you mean!? They need out help!
Magpie: I'm sorry, but you'll only be in the way if you stay any longer. From what I see here, Anne has everything under control.
Leena: .. Let's go then. We have to go find the others.
The Gunsniper stopped firing and walked up to the Whale King. Naomi's Gunsniper stopped too, knowing that she was of no more help. Chris soon followed along with Dave. It has soon come to Harry and the others that they can't do anything else. So they widthdrew into the Whale King. Magpie pushed into the controls and the Mouth started closing.
Magpie: I hope you make it out alive.
The Whale King soon floated into the sky and took off to the next destination. But before they left, a black Zoid flew right passed it. The figure soon emitted an energy shield and crashed right through the Stormsworder, causing it's combat system to freeze and go into turbulance. The figure soon passed through and Chakra regained control while Skyhigh and Anne just sat in their cockpit, not knowing what just happened.
Chakra: Dammit! I can't take them on now! I have to retreat to Altail before this gets ugly!
The Stormsworder soon flew to another part of the field, leaving the others. Not knowing what else to do, the Mystic Horse decided to follow, leaving the Raynos with the Whale King. The Horse Zoid's wings extended and flew out of site as her image appeared onto the Skyhigh's cockpit.
Skyhigh: Where are you going!? You need to wait for us!
Anne: I'll follow her to find the hostages. You stay put with the others!
------------------------------------
The 2 Lightning Team Saix were running down to the KG as soon as possible to hopefully find who the hostages. But before they could even get to there, smoke started rising from the ground, causing Kelly and Martin to become lost in it.
Martin: .. What the?
Kelly: Martin! 2 Zoids are nearby.
Martin: Who?
Scott: (pops up) Hello Martin. I didn't think I'd see you again.
Martin: Scott! I knew it would be you.
Scott: Oh it's not just me...
Scott's window soon closed and the smokescreen started to clear. The Streak and the Comet looked around to find that the 2 Zoids were about to expose themselves. One of them was the Bearfighter with the Liger Blades. But the other one, to Martin and Kelly's surprise, was the Shadow Hell Saix.
Kelly: The Shadow Hell Saix!?
Martin: .. Craig...
Inside the cockpit of the Shadow Hell Saix, Craig sat inside, quiet and spirit-broken as he looked down in the shadows. He then looked up with looks of regret as he stared at the Silver Streak. Everything was silent and all 3 Saix looked at eachother and the Bearfighter.
Martin: Craig.. How could you do this?
Scott: (laughs) He didn't have a choice. We broke him down just to do our bidding.
(flashback)
Somewhere, in the dark rooms of the Whale King, Craig was punched by Scott and fell to the ground. The young boy quickly got pissed and got up as we wiped the blood away from his mouth. Soon after, Edylg whacked Craig in the side with the other side of his sword, so he wouldn't get cut. As soon as he was about to punch Scott, he heard the gun being loaded. He quickly looked over and found Jason, holding Vega by the neck and pointing a gun directly to his head. After seeing what was about to happen, Scott punched him blank in the face. The impact caused him to fly back to Edylg, who allowed Craig to pass by. But by the time he flew right passed the swordsman, the used his other side of the sword to whack the Thunderwave in the stomach.
Vega: Craig!
The Thunderwave screamed in agony as blood flew out of his mouth. His head soon banged into the floor. The 3 other Genesis members looked downward and saw that Craig was about to get up. The young boy soon smiled as he weakily got up.
Craig: (chuckles) You wouldn't... He's too important.. He can pilot that Beserk Fury..
Edylg: You're cockiness shows that you know alot about you..
Jason: .. And nothing about us...
Craig was looking at Jason, who soon pointed the gun directly at Craig's chest. Afraid of what was about to happen, he was absolutely unaware of Edylg in the back. The last thing Craig knew was the eyes widening on Vega's face.
Vega: BEHIND YOU!
Craig: Wha- (eyes widen)
In slow motion, a bullet escaped the gun and ran right through the skin of Craig's right shoulder. The bullet stuck in there and blood spilled right out. Craig quickly reacted by grabbing his hand into his shoulder
and picked out the burning bullet. After he threw it to the ground, he tried to cover the gushing blood. He soon turned around to see that Edylg had a gun in his hand as well.
Edylg: You know.. Vega IS more skilled than you. So why have you around?
Scott: We can save you if you can only do what we want.
Craig: (looks at his shoulder) Go suck on Altail's-
Vega: Forget it, Craig! Just do it...
Craig: But why!? Don't you see that we're being forced to kill people!?
Vega: If you refuse.. They'll kill you.
Craig: (smirks) At least I know I'll go out with a bang and knowing that these bitches can't punch at all.
Jason: As said before: It shows that you know nothing about us..
The door soon opened and Salene walked in with Rena, who was being choked with her hands and with a knife to her neck. Seeing this gave a shock to both Vega AND Craig. It soon then came that they meant business when they nocited a piece of white cloth tightly wrapped around Rena's wrist. He was soon seen on his knees and with his right hand to the ground and with his left covering his wound.
Scott: Do it and we can heal that wound.
Rena: No Craig!
Salene: You shut up! (lightly pushes the knife to Rena's neck)
Scott: So what's it going to be?
Craig: .. (starts crying and wipes away his tears) .. Who is it?
Scott: (smiles) It's funny of how small of a world this is... I remember watching one of your many Zoid battles with a certain .. Martin Niar.
Craig: .. You're crazy.. Ass stalkin..
Edylg: (loads gun) Not another word..
Scott: You seem to be rivals in terms of Saix... His Silver Lightning Saix against your Shadow Hell Saix would really make him happy. (smiles)
Craig: .. *Hell..*...
(end flashback)
Scott: And he knows that he should perform at his very best. For as you see. We still have the satellites.. And we can hit anyone of our choice..
Kelly: You'll never get away with this..
Scott: .. I did..
Martin: .. I don't believe this..
Scott: It's the hard coldness of reality, Martin. Believe what you want, but what you see is absolute truth.
Martin: Have you forgotten that you're tormenting your own brother.. And Craig.. It wasn't you're choice to be this way.. But I'll take out Scott no matter what.
The Silver Streak soon aimed its blades at Scott. But before he could start shooting, the Hell Saix shot the ground Martin's Lightning Saix was standing near. Martin soon looked at Craig and took notice at that he did that intentionally.
Craig: ... * I'm sorry..*..
The Hell Saix soon started to spread a smokescreen all over the field as it went into stealth mode. Martin and Kelly looked into their radars for any sound trace and found that every round had 2 enemy Zoids in different places.
Martin: (punches controls) Dammit! They know about the sonars!
Kelly: Scott must've forced that strategy out of Craig.. But Scott has a slow Zoid..
Martin: Yeah... We can just go for him first by seeing which one of the enemies is the least scattered..
And with that, Martin and Kelly looked down onto their radars and found out where Scott was. And with that, both Saix started to shoot onto the enemy Zoid. Scott's cockpit was being attacked by the laser cannons as he quickly looked at Craig's screen.
Scott: You know what to do.
Craig: ...
And with that, the Shadow Hell Saix aimed its double vulcan guns at the source of the assault and started to fire at it. While assaulting, he noticed that the Silver Streak started running to the Bearfighter at top speed while the Crimson Comet shielded itself from the lasers. The Hell Saix soon looked at the Bearfighter, who was standing upstraight, knowing that the job was going to be done. Then out of nowhere, the Streak jumped right at the Bearfighter with its blades up. But before they could hit, the Bearfighter knocked it out of the way with its energy shield.
Scott: Craig.. You better be ready to protect me next time or else!
Craig looked at the Streak, who was lying on the smokey floor, thinking hard until he noticed something from the smoke. The Shadow Hell Saix soon jumped out of the way a split second before the Crimson Comet ran right through. Also, at the same time, Craig's vulcan guns shot the Comet's Zoid right in the right leg. Kelly noticed soon after.
Kelly: Shit!
The Saix soon crashed onto its right side and eventually became knocked out. Inside, Kelly's right side was bleeding a little bit as her unconcious body just laid there. Martin got his Saix up when he figured out about Kelly's downfall. He knew he had a slim chance in beating both Scott and Craig.
Martin: ... No..
Scott: You see, Martin! You have absolutely no chance in winning! You lost!
Martin: .. So how does it feel like having someone better than you to do your dirty work?
Scott: What did you say!
Martin: Now I see why you wanted Craig to do the work for you. You're too weak and you knew that I can beat you. So you got someone like Craig to do your work.
Scott: You're a fool! I'm stronger than Craig AND you combined! Craig's here obviously just to amuse me once you are defeated!
Martin: Why don't you prove it by defeating me now?
Scott: Pleasure comes out even more with patience.
Martin: That's enough with your pathetic excuses! What's the reason you decided to stay with the Backdraft all these years!?
Scott: Because of the power we are about to obtain once we're done with you and the Guardian Force!
Martin: Because you were scared! You couldn't hold enough responsibility to support our family, so you ran away and joined them! You can never do anything by yourself!
Scott: Shut up!
Martin: I'm not done speaking my mind yet, Scott! I have never thought a day like this would come.. where one of our own has to depart from this world.. But to you.. I guess the only one who stays standing is the one who has Craig... You make him sound like he's property!.. You never thought about anyone else but yourself.. you think everything in the world has to go your way.. You never think about anyone else's opinions.. And I personally think you have to be stopped.
Scott: .. I'm not by myself you know.. I have many others who have the same ideals as me. Some of which you may have met before... Craig thought the same with us too. He was once a Backdraft member.
Martin: .. He'd never stoop that low. Unlike you.. he cares..
Scott: I've heard enough! I'm going to take you out if its the last thing I do! Craig! Get over there and take out Martin!
Nothing happened. All there was to see was the Streak and the Bearfighter. Scott had absolutely no idea where Craig was in the smoke and was starting to wonder if he was thinking about what Martin said. Pretty soon, the field stared to become coverd in smoke again.
Scott: (chuckles) You see, Martin? It doesn't matter anyway, because what matters in the end is power!
Somewhere in the smoke, Craig was looking down, thinking about all the things Martin has said. Then out of nowhere, he noticed that a certain flying Zoid was flying above his head. Onto the screen came Rena's face with some happy news.
Rena: What are you doing Craig? Go and kick some ass!
Craig: ....
Rena: They can't use the satellites at all, we can fight them now!
Craig just sat there as his sad frown grew gradually into a smirk, which then grew into a giant smile. While the smoke filled the entire place, Martin and Scott were waiting for whatever was going to happen to them. Then out of nowhere, lasers started shooting down at the Bearfighter. Scott managed to block it out though.
Scott: *The little bastard!*
Craig was relieved to know that he's no longer under Genesis's control. And now he has the freedom to do what he wants. Martin's face popped up in Craig's cockpit, which ended up in them staring at eachother for a while. As they looked at eachother, smiles started growing on their faces as they both looked towards the Red and Black Bearfighter.
Scott: (grr) You could've had all the power.. But you turn it down for the weak!? Then I'm going to have to kill you off once and for all!
Martin: Not while I'm around!
While the smoke kept filling the field, the Streak ran right passed the Bearfighter, causing a sonic boom to knock his brother over. Scott had "pissed off" all over his face as he got this Zoid up, only to have Craig run past him and knock him over with another sonic boom. Craig couldn't be anymore happier in this kind of situation.
Scott: That's it! I'm done playing around with them!
The Bearfighter got up and searched around for any Saix running around the smoke. He found nothing and began to become frustrated. Somewhere in the smoke, he found a moving shadow, giving away that it was a Saix.
Scott: I got you!
Scott turned his Bearfighter to that direction and started shooting from its blades. The figure soon fell to the ground, leaving the target open for Scott to do as he wished. He soon opened his blades and started running at the shot down Zoid. But at that same moment, the figure disappeared and his right blade broke apart. From what he saw outiside, the Claw of the Hellsaix Strike Laser Clawed it.
Scott: .. Craig...
In the Shadow Hell Saix's cockpit, Craig was seen smiling, as the smoke started clearing up. Up in the sky, the Pheonix was flying down as a blast of mini particle beam ran to one target: the Bearfighter. Seeing what was about to happen, Scott quickly dodged the attack, only to find that his other blade is cut off.
Scott: Dammit!
Martin: Did you forget that you're fighting me also?
As soon as Scott heard that, lasers started firing at his sides. Forgetting that his blades are broken, he quickly turned on his energy shield. But as soon as he remembered what happened to his blades, he quickly noticed that his shield protected him from the assault. He looked at his sides and noticed that part of his blades where still conected. Knowing they were worthless now, he decided to use all his energy into the shield he has.
Martin: It looks like we're gong to have to take him out now.
Rena: If that's what we're going to have to do, then so be it.
Scott: I'm going to take all of you out!
Scott started running up to the Zoids that were running up at him. The Pheonix's beak started forming a charged particle beam and Martin turned on his energy shield as they began to crash. Martin soon pressed the acceleration button, instantly crashing his shield into Scott's.
Scott: What good do you think that would do?
Martin: Haven't you forgetten my trumpcard?
Scott: What!?
Out of nowhere, someone pressed 2 buttons at the same time. The Silver Streak's energy shield soon faded and in front of Scott's face was the Shadow Hell Saix. In slowmotion, the Streak's blades extended and ran right at the Bearfighter, who was followed by the Pheonix. Scott grew scared, looking at what was happening to him and only hoped the shield would hold out. He said power was everything, and it looks as though he wasn't worthy enough to obtain it. That was when he heard Craig's voice.
Craig: (pops up) Go suck on Altail's-
But it was too late. A giant flash came and the only thing that faded into the light was the scared look on Scott's face. Outside, the Shadow Hell Saix's glowing claw stomped down on the Bearfighter's head the same time the Streak's blades ran through it. As soon as both Saix ran past the enemy Zoid, the multi particle beams ran through the cockit as it flew with the other Zoids. A giant explosion soon filled the field and faded a few seconds later.
Kelly's eyes soon opened to the dark cockpit she sees right now. Everything was quiet and she wanted to know what was going on. She soon opened her cockpit to see that the entire place was cleared of smoke. It is also to her knowledge that with her was Magpie, Stoller, Chris, Leena, Naomi, Chaos and Serpentine.
Magpie: Good. You're OK. You just need some first aid.
Kelly: .. What happened to Martin?
Chaos: He's going to find the hostages. He told us that he's with one of them already.
Stoller: And Serpentine said that Larry Champ is free as well. So we basically only have to save 10 more hostages.
Kelly: We can't do much now can we..
Magpie: .. You're Zoids are broken down and you'll only get in the way.. I'm sorry..
Chaos: All we can do is hope that they're going to make it.
A few minutes later, the Guardian Force Whale King flew into the sky and to the next destination. And some other point, the Pheonix flew to some place with the Silver Streak on one side and the Shadow Hell Saix on the other side. Rena was seen in her cockpit with a serious look on her face as she looked forward to where they were going. Craig and Martin were looking forward too, aware of what dangers lie ahead of them.

************************************
Somewhere up in the sky, the Raynos tried all its best to dodge the missiles the Stormsworder kept launching. Skyhigh tried all he could to dodge the shots, knowing that his only way of defeatig Chakra were the others down below.
Skyhigh: I could really use some help here!
Chakra: I'm starting to get a little tired of this. I don't know why I'm keeping you around like this.
Anne: (pops up) Then why don't you fight me!?
Chakra looked out her window and found that the Mystic Horse was flying right up to the Stormsworder with its energy shield. Right before the Mystic Horse crashed the underside, the Stormsworder quickly went to the side, dodging the attack.
Chakra: That was close.. next time I become careless, I could end up dead.
Somewhere down below, all the other Zoids were helping shooting the Stormsworder. Lineback was being carried into the Guardian Force Whale King by Stoller and Magpie. Soon after, Magpie quickly went to the main control room and contacted Leena, Chris, Naomi, Omari, Kirkland, Dave and Harry.
Magpie: I think we should retreat now.
Omari: What do you mean!? They need out help!
Magpie: I'm sorry, but you'll only be in the way if you stay any longer. From what I see here, Anne has everything under control.
Leena: .. Let's go then. We have to go find the others.
The Gunsniper stopped firing and walked up to the Whale King. Naomi's Gunsniper stopped too, knowing that she was of no more help. Chris soon followed along with Dave. It has soon come to Harry and the others that they can't do anything else. So they widthdrew into the Whale King. Magpie pushed into the controls and the Mouth started closing.
Magpie: I hope you make it out alive.
The Whale King soon floated into the sky and took off to the next destination. But before they left, a black Zoid flew right passed it. The figure soon emitted an energy shield and crashed right through the Stormsworder, causing it's combat system to freeze and go into turbulance. The figure soon passed through and Chakra regained control while Skyhigh and Anne just sat in their cockpit, not knowing what just happened.
Chakra: Dammit! I can't take them on now! I have to retreat to Altail before this gets ugly!
The Stormsworder soon flew to another part of the field, leaving the others. Not knowing what else to do, the Mystic Horse decided to follow, leaving the Raynos with the Whale King. The Horse Zoid's wings extended and flew out of site as her image appeared onto the Skyhigh's cockpit.
Skyhigh: Where are you going!? You need to wait for us!
Anne: I'll follow her to find the hostages. You stay put with the others!
------------------------------------
The 2 Lightning Team Saix were running down to the KG as soon as possible to hopefully find who the hostages. But before they could even get to there, smoke started rising from the ground, causing Kelly and Martin to become lost in it.
Martin: .. What the?
Kelly: Martin! 2 Zoids are nearby.
Martin: Who?
Scott: (pops up) Hello Martin. I didn't think I'd see you again.
Martin: Scott! I knew it would be you.
Scott: Oh it's not just me...
Scott's window soon closed and the smokescreen started to clear. The Streak and the Comet looked around to find that the 2 Zoids were about to expose themselves. One of them was the Bearfighter with the Liger Blades. But the other one, to Martin and Kelly's surprise, was the Shadow Hell Saix.
Kelly: The Shadow Hell Saix!?
Martin: .. Craig...
Inside the cockpit of the Shadow Hell Saix, Craig sat inside, quiet and spirit-broken as he looked down in the shadows. He then looked up with looks of regret as he stared at the Silver Streak. Everything was silent and all 3 Saix looked at eachother and the Bearfighter.
Martin: Craig.. How could you do this?
Scott: (laughs) He didn't have a choice. We broke him down just to do our bidding.
(flashback)
Somewhere, in the dark rooms of the Whale King, Craig was punched by Scott and fell to the ground. The young boy quickly got pissed and got up as we wiped the blood away from his mouth. Soon after, Edylg whacked Craig in the side with the other side of his sword, so he wouldn't get cut. As soon as he was about to punch Scott, he heard the gun being loaded. He quickly looked over and found Jason, holding Vega by the neck and pointing a gun directly to his head. After seeing what was about to happen, Scott punched him blank in the face. The impact caused him to fly back to Edylg, who allowed Craig to pass by. But by the time he flew right passed the swordsman, the used his other side of the sword to whack the Thunderwave in the stomach.
Vega: Craig!
The Thunderwave screamed in agony as blood flew out of his mouth. His head soon banged into the floor. The 3 other Genesis members looked downward and saw that Craig was about to get up. The young boy soon smiled as he weakily got up.
Craig: (chuckles) You wouldn't... He's too important.. He can pilot that Beserk Fury..
Edylg: You're cockiness shows that you know alot about you..
Jason: .. And nothing about us...
Craig was looking at Jason, who soon pointed the gun directly at Craig's chest. Afraid of what was about to happen, he was absolutely unaware of Edylg in the back. The last thing Craig knew was the eyes widening on Vega's face.
Vega: BEHIND YOU!
Craig: Wha- (eyes widen)
In slow motion, a bullet escaped the gun and ran right through the skin of Craig's right shoulder. The bullet stuck in there and blood spilled right out. Craig quickly reacted by grabbing his hand into his shoulder
and picked out the burning bullet. After he threw it to the ground, he tried to cover the gushing blood. He soon turned around to see that Edylg had a gun in his hand as well.
Edylg: You know.. Vega IS more skilled than you. So why have you around?
Scott: We can save you if you can only do what we want.
Craig: (looks at his shoulder) Go suck on Altail's-
Vega: Forget it, Craig! Just do it...
Craig: But why!? Don't you see that we're being forced to kill people!?
Vega: If you refuse.. They'll kill you.
Craig: (smirks) At least I know I'll go out with a bang and knowing that these bitches can't punch at all.
Jason: As said before: It shows that you know nothing about us..
The door soon opened and Salene walked in with Rena, who was being choked with her hands and with a knife to her neck. Seeing this gave a shock to both Vega AND Craig. It soon then came that they meant business when they nocited a piece of white cloth tightly wrapped around Rena's wrist. He was soon seen on his knees and with his right hand to the ground and with his left covering his wound.
Scott: Do it and we can heal that wound.
Rena: No Craig!
Salene: You shut up! (lightly pushes the knife to Rena's neck)
Scott: So what's it going to be?
Craig: .. (starts crying and wipes away his tears) .. Who is it?
Scott: (smiles) It's funny of how small of a world this is... I remember watching one of your many Zoid battles with a certain .. Martin Niar.
Craig: .. You're crazy.. Ass stalkin..
Edylg: (loads gun) Not another word..
Scott: You seem to be rivals in terms of Saix... His Silver Lightning Saix against your Shadow Hell Saix would really make him happy. (smiles)
Craig: .. *Hell..*...
(end flashback)
Scott: And he knows that he should perform at his very best. For as you see. We still have the satellites.. And we can hit anyone of our choice..
Kelly: You'll never get away with this..
Scott: .. I did..
Martin: .. I don't believe this..
Scott: It's the hard coldness of reality, Martin. Believe what you want, but what you see is absolute truth.
Martin: Have you forgotten that you're tormenting your own brother.. And Craig.. It wasn't you're choice to be this way.. But I'll take out Scott no matter what.
The Silver Streak soon aimed its blades at Scott. But before he could start shooting, the Hell Saix shot the ground Martin's Lightning Saix was standing near. Martin soon looked at Craig and took notice at that he did that intentionally.
Craig: ... * I'm sorry..*..
The Hell Saix soon started to spread a smokescreen all over the field as it went into stealth mode. Martin and Kelly looked into their radars for any sound trace and found that every round had 2 enemy Zoids in different places.
Martin: (punches controls) Dammit! They know about the sonars!
Kelly: Scott must've forced that strategy out of Craig.. But Scott has a slow Zoid..
Martin: Yeah... We can just go for him first by seeing which one of the enemies is the least scattered..
And with that, Martin and Kelly looked down onto their radars and found out where Scott was. And with that, both Saix started to shoot onto the enemy Zoid. Scott's cockpit was being attacked by the laser cannons as he quickly looked at Craig's screen.
Scott: You know what to do.
Craig: ...
And with that, the Shadow Hell Saix aimed its double vulcan guns at the source of the assault and started to fire at it. While assaulting, he noticed that the Silver Streak started running to the Bearfighter at top speed while the Crimson Comet shielded itself from the lasers. The Hell Saix soon looked at the Bearfighter, who was standing upstraight, knowing that the job was going to be done. Then out of nowhere, the Streak jumped right at the Bearfighter with its blades up. But before they could hit, the Bearfighter knocked it out of the way with its energy shield.
Scott: Craig.. You better be ready to protect me next time or else!
Craig looked at the Streak, who was lying on the smokey floor, thinking hard until he noticed something from the smoke. The Shadow Hell Saix soon jumped out of the way a split second before the Crimson Comet ran right through. Also, at the same time, Craig's vulcan guns shot the Comet's Zoid right in the right leg. Kelly noticed soon after.
Kelly: Shit!
The Saix soon crashed onto its right side and eventually became knocked out. Inside, Kelly's right side was bleeding a little bit as her unconcious body just laid there. Martin got his Saix up when he figured out about Kelly's downfall. He knew he had a slim chance in beating both Scott and Craig.
Martin: ... No..
Scott: You see, Martin! You have absolutely no chance in winning! You lost!
Martin: .. So how does it feel like having someone better than you to do your dirty work?
Scott: What did you say!
Martin: Now I see why you wanted Craig to do the work for you. You're too weak and you knew that I can beat you. So you got someone like Craig to do your work.
Scott: You're a fool! I'm stronger than Craig AND you combined! Craig's here obviously just to amuse me once you are defeated!
Martin: Why don't you prove it by defeating me now?
Scott: Pleasure comes out even more with patience.
Martin: That's enough with your pathetic excuses! What's the reason you decided to stay with the Backdraft all these years!?
Scott: Because of the power we are about to obtain once we're done with you and the Guardian Force!
Martin: Because you were scared! You couldn't hold enough responsibility to support our family, so you ran away and joined them! You can never do anything by yourself!
Scott: Shut up!
Martin: I'm not done speaking my mind yet, Scott! I have never thought a day like this would come.. where one of our own has to depart from this world.. But to you.. I guess the only one who stays standing is the one who has Craig... You make him sound like he's property!.. You never thought about anyone else but yourself.. you think everything in the world has to go your way.. You never think about anyone else's opinions.. And I personally think you have to be stopped.
Scott: .. I'm not by myself you know.. I have many others who have the same ideals as me. Some of which you may have met before... Craig thought the same with us too. He was once a Backdraft member.
Martin: .. He'd never stoop that low. Unlike you.. he cares..
Scott: I've heard enough! I'm going to take you out if its the last thing I do! Craig! Get over there and take out Martin!
Nothing happened. All there was to see was the Streak and the Bearfighter. Scott had absolutely no idea where Craig was in the smoke and was starting to wonder if he was thinking about what Martin said. Pretty soon, the field stared to become coverd in smoke again.
Scott: (chuckles) You see, Martin? It doesn't matter anyway, because what matters in the end is power!
Somewhere in the smoke, Craig was looking down, thinking about all the things Martin has said. Then out of nowhere, he noticed that a certain flying Zoid was flying above his head. Onto the screen came Rena's face with some happy news.
Rena: What are you doing Craig? Go and kick some ass!
Craig: ....
Rena: They can't use the satellites at all, we can fight them now!
Craig just sat there as his sad frown grew gradually into a smirk, which then grew into a giant smile. While the smoke filled the entire place, Martin and Scott were waiting for whatever was going to happen to them. Then out of nowhere, lasers started shooting down at the Bearfighter. Scott managed to block it out though.
Scott: *The little bastard!*
Craig was relieved to know that he's no longer under Genesis's control. And now he has the freedom to do what he wants. Martin's face popped up in Craig's cockpit, which ended up in them staring at eachother for a while. As they looked at eachother, smiles started growing on their faces as they both looked towards the Red and Black Bearfighter.
Scott: (grr) You could've had all the power.. But you turn it down for the weak!? Then I'm going to have to kill you off once and for all!
Martin: Not while I'm around!
While the smoke kept filling the field, the Streak ran right passed the Bearfighter, causing a sonic boom to knock his brother over. Scott had "pissed off" all over his face as he got this Zoid up, only to have Craig run past him and knock him over with another sonic boom. Craig couldn't be anymore happier in this kind of situation.
Scott: That's it! I'm done playing around with them!
The Bearfighter got up and searched around for any Saix running around the smoke. He found nothing and began to become frustrated. Somewhere in the smoke, he found a moving shadow, giving away that it was a Saix.
Scott: I got you!
Scott turned his Bearfighter to that direction and started shooting from its blades. The figure soon fell to the ground, leaving the target open for Scott to do as he wished. He soon opened his blades and started running at the shot down Zoid. But at that same moment, the figure disappeared and his right blade broke apart. From what he saw outiside, the Claw of the Hellsaix Strike Laser Clawed it.
Scott: .. Craig...
In the Shadow Hell Saix's cockpit, Craig was seen smiling, as the smoke started clearing up. Up in the sky, the Pheonix was flying down as a blast of mini particle beam ran to one target: the Bearfighter. Seeing what was about to happen, Scott quickly dodged the attack, only to find that his other blade is cut off.
Scott: Dammit!
Martin: Did you forget that you're fighting me also?
As soon as Scott heard that, lasers started firing at his sides. Forgetting that his blades are broken, he quickly turned on his energy shield. But as soon as he remembered what happened to his blades, he quickly noticed that his shield protected him from the assault. He looked at his sides and noticed that part of his blades where still conected. Knowing they were worthless now, he decided to use all his energy into the shield he has.
Martin: It looks like we're gong to have to take him out now.
Rena: If that's what we're going to have to do, then so be it.
Scott: I'm going to take all of you out!
Scott started running up to the Zoids that were running up at him. The Pheonix's beak started forming a charged particle beam and Martin turned on his energy shield as they began to crash. Martin soon pressed the acceleration button, instantly crashing his shield into Scott's.
Scott: What good do you think that would do?
Martin: Haven't you forgetten my trumpcard?
Scott: What!?
Out of nowhere, someone pressed 2 buttons at the same time. The Silver Streak's energy shield soon faded and in front of Scott's face was the Shadow Hell Saix. In slowmotion, the Streak's blades extended and ran right at the Bearfighter, who was followed by the Pheonix. Scott grew scared, looking at what was happening to him and only hoped the shield would hold out. He said power was everything, and it looks as though he wasn't worthy enough to obtain it. That was when he heard Craig's voice.
Craig: (pops up) Go suck on Altail's-
But it was too late. A giant flash came and the only thing that faded into the light was the scared look on Scott's face. Outside, the Shadow Hell Saix's glowing claw stomped down on the Bearfighter's head the same time the Streak's blades ran through it. As soon as both Saix ran past the enemy Zoid, the multi particle beams ran through the cockit as it flew with the other Zoids. A giant explosion soon filled the field and faded a few seconds later.
Kelly's eyes soon opened to the dark cockpit she sees right now. Everything was quiet and she wanted to know what was going on. She soon opened her cockpit to see that the entire place was cleared of smoke. It is also to her knowledge that with her was Magpie, Stoller, Chris, Leena, Naomi, Chaos and Serpentine.
Magpie: Good. You're OK. You just need some first aid.
Kelly: .. What happened to Martin?
Chaos: He's going to find the hostages. He told us that he's with one of them already.
Stoller: And Serpentine said that Larry Champ is free as well. So we basically only have to save 10 more hostages.
Kelly: We can't do much now can we..
Magpie: .. You're Zoids are broken down and you'll only get in the way.. I'm sorry..
Chaos: All we can do is hope that they're going to make it.
A few minutes later, the Guardian Force Whale King flew into the sky and to the next destination. And some other point, the Pheonix flew to some place with the Silver Streak on one side and the Shadow Hell Saix on the other side. Rena was seen in her cockpit with a serious look on her face as she looked forward to where they were going. Craig and Martin were looking forward too, aware of what dangers lie ahead of them.
