Previously on last chapter...
"Whatever, who cares how my boss gets these OP stuff but..." Then Linda throws the Dark disc in front of her. "Enjoy your battle, ahahaha!" She evilly laughed as she jumped on top of a block wall as the Dark disc transform into a green orb with green electricity shooting out of the orb, it spun around for a few seconds till it exploded.
*BOOM!* The group covered their eyes from the smoke as they looked at the explosion then their eyes widen in complete shock.
"WHAT THE GOODNESS IS THAT?!" Nepgear yelled.
"Whoa! That thing's huge!" RED commented.
"And a bit... Orky, nyu..." Broccoli added as it revealed, it was a Morkanaut, a huge orky, walking battle engine that is five orks tall and was once piloted by Mekboys but this machine is piloted by an A.I... An ork A.I. The Morkanaut is equipped with Kustom Mega-Kannon on its left side and a Rokkit fist on the right side with Twin-Linked Shootas on top of the Morkanaut as Linda was completely surprised about its appearance.
"Whoa! That's a huge machine!" Linda commented as she smirked at the group. "Alright! ATTACK THOSE BROADS, SCRAP-HEAD!" She ordered but the Morkanaut didn't like the name 'Scrap-head'...
"It'z BEAUTY! Puny 'umie..." The Morkanaut mocked.
"Yeah whatever..." Linda rolled her head as Beauty Da Morkanaut glare at the group as it charges up its Kuston Mega-Kannon.
"This is bad" Compa started to trembled.
"Well there's no way around this massive machine. Get ready!" They all readied their weapons as Beauty finishes charging up.
"'ere's BIG! BEAUTY!" Beauty yelled then fires its Mega-Kannon.
*PEW!*
Now onwards!
*PEW!* Beauty fires a bright, white orb from the Mega-Kannon as it spazzing left and right until it impacts towards the ground where the group was. Luckily, the group jumped away from the white orb as Compa grabbed the Mascot and jumped away but the impact causes a big shockwave, shattered the group a few meters back.
"Is everyone okay?!" IF asked everyone.
"I'm okay!" Nepgear and Compa responded.
"I'm fine, nyu!" Then Broccoli.
"*Cough* *Cough* I'm alright..." Then RED as she coughed a few times and gave IF a thumbs up.
"Is the Mascot alright?!" IF asked again.
"The Mascot's with me, Iffy!" Compa answered as she let go of the Mascot as it thanked her for the save.
"Thank you, Nurse Compa" It thanked her politely.
"Aww~ Don't mention it, Miss Mascot" She lightly blushed from the Mascot's honorifics then IF yelled.
"EVERYONE! REGROUP ON ME!" She ordered as everyone nodded and regroup with IF but the Morkanaut made it difficult as its Twin-Linked Shootas were suppressing the girls but thankfully, the Shootas are not that accuracy as the others strafed left and right to avoid the bullets. The others finally reached to IF as Beauty was still firing its Twin-Linked Shootas then it charges up its Mega-Kannon.
"Iffy! Miss Beauty is charging up its cannon!" Compa pointed as she trembled.
"Get cover behind those walls!" IF ordered as the group and the Mascot ran behind the block walls which is very thick then Beauty fires its Mega-Kannon.
*PEW!* The white orb zooms towards the thick wall and exploded.
*BOOM!* The group covered their ears as the explosion was very loud as dust fell down on them and the group fanned off the dust, coughing.
"*Cough!* *Cough!* *Cough!* W-what are we going to do, Iffy?" Compa asked as she was still trembling.
"Well, fighting that big scrap head-on isn't a good idea" IF stated.
"I can activate my HDD but..." Nepgear got an idea but denied it. "I don't think my HDD will be enough to take it down..."
"This is hopeless... We're no match against that thing, nyu..." Broccoli saddened.
"Hold on!" RED voice made the girls jumped in surprise and caught her attention. "Did the Mascot knew about those discs?" She pointed out as they stared at the Mascot.
"The girl's right..." The Mascot agreed. "I, the other Mascots and the Planeptune's CPU and the Oracle were aware about the Dark discs..." It explained.
"What? Why weren't the other CPUs know about this?" Nepgear questioned.
"That answer is classified but because those Dark discs might return to Gamindustri, your sister, the Planeptune's Oracle and an old friend installed a system that gains weapons and equipment from different dimensions..." The Mascot further explains which shocked the group but much more about an old friend.
"Nep-Nep has an old friend?" Compa asked with her eyes widen.
"Wait... Nep didn't tell us about her having a friend since she met with Compa" IF pointed out.
"The Planeptune's CPU does have a very close friend. Unfortunately, I can't reveal his identity but I'll tell the fact that her friend... Was her boyfriend..."The Mascot surprisingly went... Out of Character?
Damn you, Neptune... DAMN YOU!
Neptune: Hehehehehe~
Then silence...
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"EHHHHHHHHH?!" And everyone scream, plus an explosion for interruption.
*BOOM*
"Cumz owt, ya lil' 'umiez~ meeb godda per-zent from meeb Big Kannon!" Beauty was standing there but still surpresses fire on the wall, keeping them pinned down.
"Nep-Nep has a boyfriend?!" Compa shouted.
"How that even POSSIBLE! Nep didn't even tell us about her having a boyfriend!" IF added.
"Neptune... Has a... Boyfriend..." Due to the shock, Nepgear was about to faint but stood strong. 'Stand strong, Nepgear. There's no time for fainting, you got a battle on your hands!' She reminded herself as Broccoli didn't say anything because it's not her business... As for RED...
"*Gasp!* A CPU wifey got a boyfriend?! What's his name?! How's their relationship?! Did they kiss?! TELL ME EVERYTHING!" RED is having an overload with excitement and hype, furiously shaking the Mascot up and down but thanks to IF, she bonks her on the head as she lets go off the Mascot and rubs her head in pain. "Oww~" She groaned.
"Can we change the subject now?" IF asked.
"Yes. I do not know what's gotten into me... Any who, due to the fact we facing the summons of the Dark discs, I'll grant you weaponry and equipment" The Mascot announced as it granted some equipment for IF, RED and Compa as it knew that Broccoli can float thanks to her Gema and Nepgear can go to her HDD form.
What IF, RED and Compa got for their equipment is a modified and upgraded jump kit, renamed to X-Neo Evade Pack, the short name is... X-N.E.P... ANNNNYWAAAY! They are small jetpacks with two thrusters worn around the waist, it's been modified by the Planeptune's CPU and her 'boyfriend' together as the jump kit now hover and acts like an actual jetpack. The jump kit was also packed with small thin. metal boxes on the sides with grappling hooks and very strong wires attached on the hooks inside the metal boxes.
The three girls got different loadouts, IF got herself a short sword with a slightly wide blade that is glowing light blue with an 8-inch barrel, upgraded Colt Python revolver which is different to the original Colt Python, it has a dark purple skin with blue lines, the six-round cylinder can be loaded with HEIAP (High-explosive incendiary/armor-piercing ammunition) with a muzzle brake on its barrel to reduce the recoil and Target Enhancer. RED got twin laser guns named 'Nep-blasters' and Compa got a Caduceus Staff and a Caduceus Blaster on both her hands.
"Wow~ I got dual laser guns and a jetpack~!" RED started to hovered with her X-NEP, going back and forth through the group as she spun around. "Weeeeee~"
"Huh..." IF examined her Colt Python revolver. "I preferred having a pistol but meh, this is fine..." She shrugged as Compa was also examining her staff and her blaster.
"Your equipment are X-Neo Evade Pack, X-N.E.P which are upgraded and modified jump kits that can able to hover and fly into the air but it has limited fuel, but the grappling hooks can be used in case you run out of fuel..." The Mascot explained which the girls with X-NEPs, widen their eyes and saw RED wasting her fuel just goofing around then they warned her about it since she isn't listening at all...
"RED, stop! You're wasting your fuel tank!" IF shouted as RED stopped spinning like a lunatic.
"Eh? Wasting my fuel?" RED popped out a question mark on her head.
"Miss Mascot said that the X-NEP has limited fuel..." Compa explained.
"And you're wasting half of your fuel tank just goofing off" IF added as RED's upper body fell in disappointment.
"Aww~ I thought it has unlimited fuel..." She pouted.
"With the X-N.E.P, you can dodge the summoned machine's powerful attacks"The Mascot stated. "Now go! We cannot waste any much time!" It demanded.
"The Mascot's right, Rom and Ram are giving us more time to reactivate the seal" Nepgear pointed out.
"Yeah, let's not put their sacrifice in vein" IF stated as Nepgear transformed to her HDD form with her Gun-Blade and Broccoli obviously floated on her Gema. "Nepgear and Broccoli will flank left and get that machine's attention, me and Compa will flank right to try to find a weak point. Got it?" IF made up a game plan as everyone nodded. "Mascot, please stay here" IF ordered.
"Yes" The Mascot obeyed. "Now go!" It demanded as the three girls' X-NEP's thrusters activates as they readied their weapons and began to hover.
"Alright! Remember the plan, girls!" She reminded them as they all got out of cover and charged at the Morkanaut.
"Thiz gonna be a gud scrap! WAAAAAAAGH!" Beauty battle cried as all its weapons fires at the girls then IF pointed her Colt Python at Beauty's metal plate face and battle cried as well.
"FOR GAMINDUSTRI!" Then she fired her gun.
*BOOM!*
The Rookie
Location: The World Labyrinth
Five days after drop...
*PEW!* Rookie's Gun-Blade shot through a random pipe monster as he slash and dash through every monster in his way as they disappeared into thin air, with combos of firing its gun and slashing it with its blade.
*PEW!* *PEW!* *CLASH!* *SLICE!* *PEW!* As he continued running towards the Twins who are fighting against an army of Killachines as he saw broken ice crystals and pieces of metal, weapons and parts from the Killachines.
'I hope they're okay...' Rookie hoped as he continued running.
With the Twins...
It's been over thirty minutes of fighting an army of Killachines and they only took out one quarter of the army as one of the Killachines scratched Rom's right arm.
"Ouchie~" Rom yelped as Ram noticed and freezes the Killachine and smash it into pieces.
*SMASH!*
"Rom, are you okay?" Ram asked as she rejoined with her twin sister.
"Uh-huh, but it strings..." Rom answered as rubs her right arm then she noticed another Killachine who is rising its weapons and about to slam on them. "Ram, look out!" She pushed Ram outta the way and stretched out her left hand, creating an ice shield and it blocked the attack. Her twin sister noticed it as well and slams her Natural White onto the ground.
"ICE COFFIN!" She yelled and froze the Killachine into a big crystal then she shattered it into pieces. "*SMASH!* *Pat* *Pat* *Pat* Agh! What's with these stupid things?!" She complained. "There's like a gajillion of them!" Then she shouted but there's another Killachine, but this time, it was sneaking up behind the twins as it raised its mace, a sudden noise was heard.
*PEW!*
"Hey, Ram? Did you hear that?" Rom quietly asked.
"Yeah, I think I heard it fro- LOOK OUT!" Ram suddenly gets down with Rom pulled down by her as a blue electricity shell, flying above the other Killachines and the twins then hits the machine behind which shocked both twins when they noticed it. As they followed the blue trace from the blue electricity shell and saw a black armored soldier no other than Rookie who jumped on a Killachine's back as it went in a out of control frenzy, trying to shake him off... But instead, destroyed a couple of Killachines around the frenzy machine.
'Damn, I need to finish it off quick!' Rookie quickly got his Gun-Blade and slice the machine's head which disabled the whole machine as it falls to the ground, he simply jumped off and landed, then he saw the twins, staring at him with their jaws dropped. "Hey kids, having fun?" He jokingly asked.
"Rookie!" Rom happily shouted as Ram shook her head after she saw him, dealing with a couple of the machines by using one of them against them.
"Freaking SHOWOFF!" Ram furiously yelled at him as he rolled his head.
"What are you doing, Mister Rookie?" Her twin sister quietly asked. "We thought you're with the girls" She stated.
"Yeah! Helping the Mascot and that CPU dummy reactivate the seal!" Ram added which cringed her sister.
"She's not a dummy, Ram!" She raised her voice.
"Hey, whatever..." She obviously didn't care. "So, is there a reason?" Then she pointed at him as he answered.
"I wanted to make sure you two are okay, I know that the girls will be fine without me" He explained.
"We're fine~, we got this in the bag!" Ram pretended.
"Then why is that Killachine sneaking behind you two without noticed?" Rookie simply asked as Ram tried to answered his question but went silent then Rom responded.
"I think Mister Rookie has a good point, Ram..."
"Eh? What do you mean, Rom?" Ram asked.
"We didn't notice that thing behind us, if Mister Rookie haven't disable it, we'll be beaten by them..." Rom explained.
"Rom..." Her eyes widen then she spoke the truth. "AGH! Fine! We're having trouble dealing with those stupid things, there's like a gajillion of them against three of us!" She pointed out.
"Yes, they outnumbered us, three to one but..." Rookie then grabbed his Gun-Blade and loaded up with E.M.P shells. "I won't run away without a fight!" His voice darkens as he grips his Gun-Blade tightly.
"B-but... It's too dangerous~" Rom stated.
"Yeah! You can't fight a gajillion of them, you're not a Rambo with an unlimited ammo machine gun!" Ram added then he suddenly looked back at the twins as he frowned.
"Tell me, does your big sister always runs away from her enemies?" Rookie rudely asked as the twins cringed.
"W-w-wh-what w-would a-ask th-that?" Rom started to tremble but Ram got a bit angry.
"No way! Our big sis will NEVER run away from a monster, especially never run away from a dogoo!" Ram angrily shouted as she continued to rant.
With the Killachines...
As the twins and the ODST was having a conversation with each other, the Killachines were just... Waiting for them to engage...
"Permission to engage the heretics?" One of the Killachines spoke.
"Negative..." Then another disagreed as they waited for a bit longer as the twins continued talking.
Back with Rookie and the Twins...
"-If she never backs away, we're not gonna back away as well!" Ram finishes her conversation.
"...So, are you going to fight with me?" Rookie asked them.
"Of course, dummy! I'm not letting you to have all the fun!" Then she turns to her twin sister with a grinning smile. "Rom, wanna do the 'Switch strategy'?" She asked her and she nodded.
"Ready?" He asked.
"Yup, the one with the most machines destroyed gets to pay for some ice cream for us!" She shouted which was a surprised Rookie then he sighed as they now engaged with the rest of the Killachines.
"Destroy them!" One of the Killachines ordered as they roared, Rookie fired his Gun-Blade at the Killachines.
*PEW!*
Meanwhile with the girls...
*BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* The Twin-Linked Shootas on the Morkanaut fired with endless amount of bullets at the girls on the air.
"SOMEBODY, TAKE OUT THAT ANTI-AIR ON THE MACHINE!" IF yelled as Nepgear who's in her HDD form and Broccoli got Beauty's attention as it fires its Mega-Kannon and swings its Rokkit Fist at them, RED was the first one to fire at the Twin-Linked Shootas with her Nep-Blasters.
"Take this! *Pew!* *Pew!* *Pew!*" RED fires her Nep-Blasters as it damages the Twin-Linked Shootas as well as knock it around while its firing bullets then exploded but one of the bullets shot Nepgear on the right shoulder, dropping her Gun-Blade and disappeared as she grunted, covering her wound with her left hand.
"Compa!" Nepgear shouted as Compa heard her voice, she boosts herself to her attitude level as she tried to know how Caduceus Staff works.
"Aww~ How this thing work~" Then she accidentally pressed something which triggers the staff to fire a bright yellow beam, attaching to Nepgear with a yellow aura as she looks at her wound and was surprised, her wound was healed.
"Thanks, Compa!" She thanked her then she reappeared her Gun-Blade and continued fighting the Morkanaut as Compa started scratching her head in confusion.
"Huh, so that's how it works... I wonder this pistol can do..." Compa wondered as she brings out her Caduceus Blaster and aimed it at the Morkanaut's metal head then fired small, yellow glowing bullets but...
*Bing!* *Bing!* *Bing!* It wasn't that effective as the Morkanaut's metal head turns around and stared at her as she went paled, sweatdropping...
"Yah scratcheded meeb mug, 'umie!" Beauty is very upset as Compa apologized to the machine.
"Oh sorry, Miss Beauty. I didn't mean to do that, I-" Then Beauty aimed its Mega-Kannon at her. "Eep!" She yelped which gasped everyone.
"Compa!" They all shouted.
"Yah scratch meeb mug, me'll scratch yours. Very. 'ard~" Beauty charges up its Mega-Kannon but interrupted by a HEIAP bullet.
"*BOOM!* Hey! Over here!" They heard IF's voice as it caught Beauty's attention, stopped charging its Mega-Kannon as it turns its metal body towards with a roar. "Yeah! Talking to you, ugly scraphead!" IF mocked which Beauty got very, I mean VERY offended by that name.
"WHO YA CALLIN' OOGLEE?!" Beauty's engines roared with flames as well as the tesla coils, bursting with electricity. "Yah jus' made Miss Beauty reeel MAD! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Beauty loudly roared as well as its engines and the tesla coils, then it jumped into the air and landed on the ground, causing a small earthquake around Beauty as scrap felled from the Ork machine then the top tesla coils started to fired yellow electricity on top of Beauty, creating a yellow, electrical force field known as the Kustom Force Field around the machine with scrap picked up by the force field.
The girls regrouped and stood there in shock as IF fired her Colt Python but the HEIAP Bullet was evaporated when it hits the Kustom Force Field.
"'A! 'A! Yah kan't touch meeb nows, 'umies!" Beauty taunted. "Gretchins! Meeb need sum repairs!" Then the bottom part of the Morkanaut burst opened, releasing group of Gretchin repair squads then they jumped on the walker.
"Make meeb shinin' loike nyoo again!" Beauty ordered.
"Yes, boss!" The Gretchins obeyed.
"If ya donz! Me'll KIKK YA TER DA NEXT PLANET!" Then it threatens them with an angry shout.
"Ye-yes, b-boss!" The Gretchins obeyed in fear and they started repairing Beauty.
"Goodness! They're repairing the machine!" Nepgear noticed.
"What're we going to do, Iffy?" Compa questioned.
"Don't know, that force field will totally shut down our evade packs if we get too close and our grappling hooks and weapons will just bounce off or get absorbed by the force field" IF explained. "Damnit! They gonna repair that machine till the force field drops down!" She was having trouble thinking of a plan to counter-attack.
"Looks like we're in a sticky situation, nyu" Broccoli stated obviously then suddenly, a large blue, electricity shell came down from the skies and penetrated through the Kustom Force Field, hitting on top of the Morkanaut, causing a E.M.P effect. It disabled the force field as well as zapping the Gretchins to death and shut downed the machine itself... Expect the Ork A.I...
"WOT DA ZOGG?!" Beauty wasn't expected it to happened, the girls' reactions are the same.
"What the goodness was that?!" Nepgear shouted, shockingly as well as the others, jawdropped.
"Now's your chance!" Then they heard the Mascot and they saw it on top of the block wall.
"Miss Mascot? You did this?" Compa asked with her eyes widen.
"Yes. It's a E.M.P MAC Blast, it'll disable the Morkanaut's force field and the walker itself" The Mascot explained.
"WOT?! DATZ NUB FAIR!" Beauty whined loudly.
"I thought Mascots can't fight in combat..." IF pointed out.
"Indeed, Mascots aren't built to fight in combat. But we can give support to our CPUs and their allies" The Mascot stated. "I was scanning the Morkanaut and found some weaknesses"
"Really?" RED widen in surprised.
"Yes. The Morkanaut is slow, therefore it'll be wise to destroy the engines and cripple the legs, making it immobile" The Mascot explained.
"Huh… Sounds like we've to cripple it in ordered to damage that damn thing" IF guessed.
"Oh, I have an idea!" RED caught everyone's attention. "Let's use EXPLOSIVES!"
"..."
"..."
"..." Then IF facepalmed.
"...I'm seriously tossing RED's idea to the trash..." IF commented.
"Oh come on~ Explosives are good against machines, right?" RED questioned.
"Yes but, we don't have enough explosives to make Miss Beauty go boom..." Compa stated.
"What about I used Celestial Severance after we cripple it?" Nepgear suggested which shocked the IF and Compa.
"EH?! Are you sure you can do that?" Compa asked, worried.
"Yeah, you're gonna used all your power on that ability. You'll pass out" IF added as she worried about Celestial Severance as last time, she used on CFW Judge and pass out.
"It's our only hope to take down that machine" Nepgear pointed out as IF and Compa looked at each other and they nodded.
"Alright. Me and Broccoli will take out the legs, RED and Nepgear will take out the engine and Compa, watch over us if we get hurt. Everyone got it?" IF explained the plan and everyone agreed. "Ok, let's do this, people!" She then shouted.
"You must hurry. I'm not sure how long will the E.M.P effect last..." The Mascot honestly said and everyone nodded again.
"Alright, LET'S GO!" Then they're off and jumped into the air with their X-NEPs then zoom towards Beauty as it still EMPed, they split up into two, IF and Broccoli are taking out the legs and RED and Nepgear are taking out the engines at the back of the Morkanaut's back.
"Take a taste of my laser guns!" RED fired her Nep-Blasters.
*Pew!* *Pew!* *Pew!* *Pew!* *Pew!* After she fired a barrage of lasers, the engine stopped working and burst into flames. *BOOM!*
"Agh! No! Mi engine!" Beauty yelled as it turned around but without its engine, it can't move fast. "KILLA KANS!" It yelled yet again as the bottom part burst open once again but this time, two little can-like mechs came out, equipped with Rokkit Launcha and a klaw. "Kills dem uumies at wunce!" Beauty ordered.
"Right, boss!"
"On it, boss!" Both Killa Kans obeyed then fired their Rokkit Launchas at the girls as the evaded their rokkits, RED ran out of fuel.
"Eh?" She noticed that her X-NEP's thrusters stopped working then she gulped and starts falling from the air as she screams. "AHHHHHHHHH-"
"Gotcha" IF caughted her, she was the first one to noticed her falling as RED looked at her.
"My hero~" Then she beamed at IF. "I only wish your boyfriend caught you like that" And IF blushes very red.
"Do you want me to drop you, RED?" IF asked which scared RED, shook her head, furiously. "Good…" IF then put RED on the ground. "Come on, use the grappling hooks and help us out, RED!" Then RED nodded and used her grappling hooks and went up on top of the Morkanaut as IF continued flying.
The Morkanaut has it Mega-Kannon aiming at Nepgear as it fired, she dodged it and returned fired with a few laser blasts from her Gun-Blade.
"Aaaagh!" The laser blasts directly hits at the face as it covers its head with its Rokkit Klaw for any incoming attacks. For a few seconds, Beauty uncovers its head and aimed its Rokkit Klaw at Compa and fired at her. Compa noticed the Klaw coming towards her very quick.
"AHHH!" Compa went paled and boosted out of the way as fast as possible, the Klaw went straight into a block wall.
"Curse dat uumie an 'er pointy stikk!" Beauty then recalls its Rokkit Klaw as it went back into its arm, IF saw it and got herself an idea.
"RED! Can you make that machine fires its fist?!" She shouted at RED from a distance.
"Eh?! You want me to be target?!" RED questioned as she was still on top of Beauty.
"Just do it!" She then flies down, joining with Broccoli as RED sighed and grappled at a nearby block wall and stared at Beauty.
"Oi! I'm right over here, ugly!" RED somehow heard from IF that saying ugly will seriously triggered the machine... In fact... It got triggered as Beauty glared at RED.
"Ooglee?! Mi fist will make ya, ooglee!" The Morkanaut points its Rokkit Klaw at RED and fired but she got outta the way and the Klaw hit the wall again. "Curse ya, uumie!"
"NEPGEAR!" IF called her. "Take out machine's arm!" She ordered as Nepgear nodded, she aimed her Gun-Blade at the unattached arm and fired a laser beam at it and exploded.
"No! Mi arm!" Beauty yelled as IF fired her Colt Python at the left leg with HEIAP bullets and it exploded.
"Broccoli!"
"On it, nyu. MEKARA BEAM!" Broccoli yelled as her fired lasers out of her eyes and it exploded as both legs collapsed, making Beauty immobile.
"AAAAAAAAAGGGGHH! Ya damned uumies!" Beauty charges up its Mega-Kannon but was getting hit by RED's Nep-Blasters and exploded as well. "...Ploppaz..."
"NEPGEAR! DO IT, NOW!" IF yelled her lungs and Nepgear got the message, she flies down to the ground, she closes her eyes and took a deep breath then opens her eyes with determination.
"M.P.B.L. Overdrive!" A purple aura around her and her wings glowed brightly. "I'll use all I have with this!" She charges at the Morkanaut and did an uppercut with her Gun-Blade which flew Beauty upwards into the air. She fired six laser shots at the Morkanaut then charged again, impaling her Gun-Blade on the Morkanaut while it was firing as she pulls off the machine, she unleashes a big laser beam which became larger and larger then the beam penetrated through the Morkanaut.
Unfortunately, she losing strength fast as she went unconscious and felled, cancelling her ability but her laser beam left Beauty with a huge as it spins around, it felled.
"Curse ya zoggin uumies! *THUD*" Beauty yelled on its last breath, falling into the ground. Then it glows bright with electricity sparkling everywhere.
"IT'S GONNA EXPLODE!" IF yelled and everyone evacuated from the Morkanaut then it exploded like a 5000kg bomb.
*BOOM!*
Meanwhile with Rookie and the Twins...
*BOOM!*
'What the hell was that?' Rookie wondered as he was on top of a destroyed Killachine, he looked at the distance, seeing a huge explosion behind a block wall and noticed that the girls were over there as he remembered. 'I hope they're okay...' Then he looked at the twins who are using teamwork against the Killachines.
A Killachine slams its mace onto the twins but was blocked by Rom's ice shield as she called her twin sister.
"Ram!" Ram heard her as she jumps into the air.
"ICE COFFIN!" She froze the Killachine into an ice crystal and smashed it into pieces. *Smash!* Then they saw a group of Killachines coming their way, the twins looked at each other and nodded, they both fly up into air and points their staffs into one another.
"E-Force Blizzard!" They both shouted, casting a huge blizzard onto the group and they all froze very quickly then they call for Rookie.
"Rookie!" He heard them and nodded.
"On it!" He softy shouted as he readies his Gun-Blade then charge at the frozen group but he noticed something different, he's not running fast like a regular ODST, he's running in the speed of a Spartan. 'What the hell? How come I'm running faster?' He wondered as he remembers that he told Histoire about Mascot's power, giving to him and Nepgear back at the Lowee Expo...
'Excuse me, Histoire but can I ask you a question'
"As you please, Rookie"
'It's about those Mascots'
"Oh. What about them?"
'It's just that a fact that when a Mascot gives Nepgear their power, I get the same amount on my equipment and my Gun-Blade. Do you know any of this?'
"Unfortunately no but strange, however... I might see what's going on with that"
'Is it related to the Mascot's power?' Rookie wondered but went back to what Histoire has said when she contacted him on his pursue with Ram.
"Hello? Rookie, can you hear me?"
'Loud and clear, Histoire'
"Oh good. I'm just doing some modifications on your equipment"
'Or maybe Histoire been messing with my equipment...' Rookie then sweatdropped but shook his head. 'Snap out of it, JD! You're about to strike them!' Then he talks to himself and focused on the frozen Killachines, gripping his Gun-Blade as its blade glows. He noticed that there's the ground was turned into ice which got himself an idea. As he approaches at the icy ground, he stopped running and stopped on the ice, sliding as he slices the frozen Killachines into pieces of metal while he was sliding. He missed a few but turned as he faced his upper body then he jumped and blast his Gun-Blade at the opposite where he was facing, in its Semi mode at the same time, giving a boost to take out the remaining frozen Killachines.
After taking out the frozen Killachines, the twins were amazed and jawdropped and Rookie looked at them. Rom smiled at him but Ram look away, probably because she's jealous of what she saw but more of them came and now approaching to Rookie and the Twins.
'They just won't quit, do they...' Rookie pouted as they ready themselves for another wave, the Killachines started to slow down with electrical sparks coming out.
"Eh?" The three tilted their heads in confusion as their visors started flashing.
"Destroy them allllllllllll~" One of the Killachine stopped and felled into the ground then disappeared.
"Terminal error! Terminal error~!" Another stopped and then disappeared.
"Killachine is shutting down~" Then another disappeared and suddenly, all the Killachines that are still active disappeared one by one as Rom gasped.
"*Gasp* The seal must be active again, Miss Nepgear really did it..." She smiled as Ram sighed in relief.
"Took them long enough. She would've failed if I didn't come along to help, all she did was carry that Mascot!" Ram's Natural White disappeared as she folded her arms with a pouted face.
'Thank god, they're did it...' Rookie was relieved as well, putting his Gun-Blade on his back.
"But that explosion made me worried, we need to investigate" Rom demanded.
"Okay, let's check it out..." Ram pouted once again as they flied to rejoined with the others, Rookie followed them but forgotten that he's on the ice as he slipped and felled into the ground, head first.
*THUD!* The twins heard the noise and turned around as they saw Rookie lying on the ground.
"Mister Rookie, are you okay?!" Rom asked but for Ram, she cover her mouth as she was laughing quietly but she can't and started laughing hard out.
"Ahahahahahahahahahaha!" She rolled up into a ball while she was flying in the air, Rookie gets up and walked out of the icy ground.
"*Sigh* Very funny, Ram..." Rookie frowned, staring at Ram.
"Well~, I guess we are even now" Ram stated which she forgotten something as they start walking to join up with the girls. "Oh, I almost forgot! How many machines do you destroyed? I got twenty-five" She told him and he told her.
"I got thirty machines destroyed… I guess I'm the winner..." He announced then Ram jawdropped and yelled her lungs.
"NOOOOOOOOOOO~!" She dropped her head, sadden in defeat.
'Whoa... I guess she doesn't like losing...' Rookie then felt ashamed but he made his decision as he puts his hand on her right shoulder. "You really don't like losing. Don't you, Ram?" He asked, she looked at him with tears on her eyes and nodded then he sighed. "You know what. How about I pay the ice creams for you two, how does sound?" He asked them.
"Eh?" The twins were confused.
"You gonna buy it for us?" Ram's eyes widen, questioning him as he answered with a nod then they widely smiled.
"Thank you, Rookie/Mister Rookie!" They both thanked him.
"No need to thank me, you two done most of the work" He pointed out. "Come on, let's see what's going on over there" The twins nodded and they all ran to rejoin with the girls. 'I might need to ask IF for some money because I don't even have money...' He thought as they continued running.
Back with the girls...
Meanwhile, the Mascot has finally reactivated the seal with the portal closed as well, everyone gathered with Nepgear who turned back to human form was being carried by Compa as she was still unconscious. The equipment the Mascot gave them are starting to disappear as RED was disappointed, not having the awesome equipment she had.
"Awww~ Why can't we have those awesome things for ourselves..." RED pouted.
"The equipment I gave you are not permanent, they'll disappear when a non-belonging enemy has been defeated and taken care of" The Mascot stated.
"That's means when we destroyed Miss Beauty, it'll disappeared after that?" Compa asked.
"Yes, technology from different dimensions are very dangerous and may cause total chaos if fall to the wrong hands" The Mascot stated.
"You made a good point, nyu" Broccoli agreed then Nepgear started to gain consciousness.
"Hmmm... Mmmm... Huh~" Her eyes slowly open. "What... What happened?" She asked the group.
"You went unconscious, Ge-Ge. Here..." Compa gave her a Healing bottle as she drank it, healing her back to full health.
"Thank you, Compa" Nepgear thanked her.
"Just doing my nurse duty" She beamed at her as Nepgear got up and dusted her school uniform.
"...So, we good?" IF questioned and everyone nodded.
"It's seem so, all Killachines have been sealed away. As long as I am here, they will never return"
"Phew, we're in the clear" Compa was very relieved that it's over.
"Lowee is safe, thanks to you all. No words can accurately express my level of gratitude"The Mascot thanked them all for sealing the machines away for not for Lowee but for Gamidustri itself.
"We only did what was right... But" Nepgear smiled but faded away. "That's means you can't come with us, doesn't it?"
"Again, my departure would mean the reactivation of the Killchines"The Mascot repeated her statement once again.
"We can't let that happen. I'm sorry I brought that up..." She then apologised, IF putted her index finger under her chin and appears that she got something to say.
"Hey... In Lastation, we got a bit of the Mascot's power, even though it stayed behind so, how about it?" IF suggested.
"Unfortunately, I lack the proper technique to perform such a... Huh?"Then suddenly, appeared a... A copy of itself?
"Huh?" Everyone tilted their heads, confuse as hell, including the Mascot.
"...This..."The Copied Mascot and the real Mascot looked at each in confusion.
"This... This is me? How did this happen?" The real Mascot questioned.
"I wish I could tell you, me. So, you don't know either?" The copied Mascot responded as the girls except for Broccoli repeatedly looked at the two Mascots.
"I am sooooo~ confused right now!" Compa has no idea what the hell is going on... Up till Broccoli explains the situation.
"Patchwork with generic materials may cause some glitches in the disc, but this glitch is cool, nyu" She explained.
"So like... The Mascot created a clone of itself just in case it's physical body is destroyed?" IF theorised.
"I guess we can go with that, nyu..." She shrugged about her theory.
"*Sigh* Ironic. Considering our efforts to bring it back to life. All's well that ends well, I guess..."
"U-um... So, in this case" Nepgear going ask it yet again but finally.
"Yes/Yes..."Both copied and the real Mascot answered. "I can heed your request. I will stay behind and maintain the seal"
"And I will join you to assist in whatever possible"The copied Mascot joined with the girls as for the real Mascot stayed behind and watch over the seal.
"So that's means we can have awesome wea-" RED widely smiled but.
"NO!/NO!"Both the Mascot cut off her question as she whines like a baby.
"Waaaah~ Baka~!" RED whined as Compa dragged her.
"Come on, RED. You have enough fun for one day. Besides we're all tired" IF pointed out.
"Of course we're tired! Do you have any IDEA how many things we have to deal with!" The girls jumped, hearing someone else as they looked around, they saw Rookie with the twins as Ram complained.
"What took you four so long to reactivate the seal?!" Ram furiously questioned.
"We bumped into something on our way" Compa scratches her head then the girls explained what happened, dealing with a Morkanaut. Ram laughed and mocked but Rookie hit her by the back of the head, with the twins arguing with each other like dogs.
They walked out of the World Labyrinth, it was almost midway before night falls.
'Wow, it took that long for us to reactivate the seal...' Rookie thought as the twins were very tired to walk, they made a favour for him.
"Rookie~ Can you carried us home~" Ram attached herself on his right leg as Rom attached on his other leg.
"My legs... They're not working..." Rom's legs were trembling left and right.
'Oh great, more girls that'll be the death of me... Welp, I just have to deal with it...' Rookie sighed and nodded as Ram jumped on his shoulders with Rom being carried by him.
"Huh? That's not fair! I wanna have a piggyback ride!" RED shouted in jealously.
'Oh come on! I'm can't carry three girls!' Rookie whined but IF refuses.
"Nope, you're not gonna jumped on Rookie!" IF furiously shouted at her as RED pouted once more.
'Oh thank you, IF' Rookie thanked her.
"Ehhhh? Why not~? You not being overprotective with your boyfriend, huh?" RED smirked then IF blushes.
"WHY YOU!" Then IF furiously punches her in the face.
"*Pow!* OW! BAKAAAAA!" RED yelled throughout the land as they sweatdropped.
"Hmm... Do you know what happened to the Killachines?" Compa asked and everyone except for IF and RED shrugged, they continued to walk their way back to the Lowee's Basilicom. But what really happen to the remaining Killachines?
Unknown...
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY'RE GONE?!" Inside a unknown laboratory, an undead professor was shouting at two yet undead with browncoats and a chubby engineer.
"Don't know, I check it and machines are gone" The undead chubby engineer pointed out.
"Brains..."
"Brains?" Both browncoat undead were very confused then suddenly a large portal appeared above the three and the piles of Killachines dropped onto them, crushing the three as the two browncoat undead popped out their heads.
"Ahhh~ There they are, the machines I needed to improve the bots" Then the professor turns around. "Good day, gentlemen" And walks away, leaving the undead stuck under the pile as they sadden.
"Brains~"
