Despite his big size, Big Bull Demon could move with incredibly frightening speed. The villain rushed at Shannon and Rad and swung his normal arm at them. Shannon saw the attack coming and without thinking, she shoved Rad to the ground and ended up taking the full force of the attack! Shannon flew through the air and ended up smashing through over half a dozen parked vehicles before she stopped and laid crumpled in the side of a car. Big Bull Demon just laughed at the sight, while Rad stumbled to his feet with a stunned look on his face.
"SHANNON!" Cried Rad in dismay.
"Oh save you breath. She brought this on herself. That's what Shannon gets for his disloyalty and for siding with you." Said Boxman with a grin as he hovered overhead.
"She's your daughter! How could you do this to her?!" Yelled Rad angrily.
"She stopped being my daughter the moment she fell in love with you and stood against me. Anyway shouldn't you take some responsibility for this? After all your Shannon's boyfriend and a hero, yet you couldn't protect her and she was the one who saved you. Seems you failed at being a boyfriend and a hero by the look of things. Really makes you a failure." Said Boxman with a cruel smirk.
Rad just stood there a bit shaken by Boxman's words.
"You call yourself a hero and you couldn't save some of the people closest to you. You can't even save your own bacon! Now I'm just going to have Big Bull Demon put you out of your misery." Said Boxman with a wave of his hands.
Big Bull Demon moved towards Rad sensing an easy kill, but Rad surprised him by leaping into the air and began punching his body. Rad was enveloped in his purple light giving him extra strength and the ability to fly and hover. He pounded Big Bull Demon with all his might and managed to cause some dents on the villain's metal body.
"I'm not going down today! I'm going to protect Shannon and Mikayla and be a hero!" Roared Rad as he continued to punch Big Bull Demon.
Big Bull Demon snarled in anger and grabbed Rad in his lefthand. The villain began to squeeze Rad making him cry out in pain as well as make a strange squeak noise.
"And so it comes to an end! Let's all give Rad a big hand, oh wait his being crushed by one!" Laughed Boxman.
Shannon groaned from where she laid. She sat up and saw what was happening. Shannon's first instinct was to run to Rad's aid, but her legs were to busted up to move. The robot was trying to come up with a new plan of action, when she noticed a faint light coming from a crack in her chest. Shannon opened a hatch in her chest and saw the glorb that powered her body and a crazy idea began to form in her mind. Glorbs could power machines and robots and according to Fink they could power up and increase the power of organic beings. Shannon yanked the glorb from her chest causing her emergency power system to kick it. The emergency power system only had a couple of hours of power and only allowed Shannon to do certain things to save power. Shannon turned her right hand into a blaster and loaded the glorb into it. She took careful aim at Rad in the distance and fired.
The orb flew through the air and struck Rad in the back and vanished. Rad felt a huge surge of power go through his body and his eyes turned neon green as he broke free from a very surprised Big Bull Demon's grip.
"That's not good." Thought Boxman as a look of panic appeared on his face.
Rad flew at Big Bull Demon and delivered several powerful punches to his chest that caused several large dents and knocked him back. Big Bull Demon let out a roar of pain and rage as he thrusted his drill arm at Rad intending to stab him in the chest. Rad fired his Power Poke at the drill and it exploded into bits. Big Bull Demon stumbled back in shock and pain as he clutched where his drill arm used to be, before Rad picked him up with his psychic powers and hurled him in the air at Boxman.
"NNNNNOOOOOO!" Yelled Boxman right before Big Bull Demon hit him and they both went flying and crashing right into Boxmore.
Rad began to power down and return to his normal self as he landed on the ground. He saw Shannon and went running over to her and picked her up. Rad saw the open hatch and missing power source and it didn't take him long to figure out what Shannon had done.
"You used your glorb to power me up to beat Big Bull Demon. That was dangerous! Why would you do something like that?" Said Rad.
"Because I can get a new glorb for myself. I can't get a new you. Your irreplaceable Rad and I love you." Said Shannon.
"I love you too." Said Rad.
The two of them smiled and kissed. Rad picked Mikayla up and the three of them headed into the plaza to get some repairs.
To be continued.
