Meanwhile

Deckard and Yuuta followed Drill Boy through the park until he drove up to a shed. Deckard parked behind some trees as he and Yuuta watched Drill Boy transform, look around to see if anyone was around, and went inside.

Yuuta leaned forward. "I wonder what's in there,"

Deckard scanned the building "Looks like a storage shed of some kind. I'm not detecting anyone inside it though,"

Drill Boy seemed to realize that whoever he was looking for wasn't in the shed because he came running outside yelling "Tor! Fay! Where are you?"

Yuuta leaned back in his seat. "Looks like his friends left without telling him,"

Deckard said nothing, he just kept watching until Drill Boy heard something and turned around. At first he thought they had been spotted but then he saw a boy in a wheel chair wheel himself over to Drill Boy while something small with wings fluttered up to land in Drill Boy's servos.

Deckard scanned it and flashed his dash board lights to get Yuuta's attention. "Yuuta, look!"

Yuuta looked and his eyes widened "Is that… the fairy?"

Deckard rocked his steering wheel for a "nod". "Yeah,"

Yuuta looked at the console. "Why didn't he tell us he found it?"

"I don't know…" Deckard opened his door so Yuuta could get out. "…But I'm going to find out,"

As soon as Yuuta got out of Deckard's alt. mode the mech transformed and walked over to Drill Boy who didn't realize someone was behind him until Deckard was looming over him.

The fairy screamed when she saw him and tried to hide behind Drill Boy and the boy in the wheelchair looked like he wanted to do the same but looked to Drill Boy in a "do you know him?" fashion.

Drill Boy calmed down as soon as he recognized Deckard but then remembered what Deckard said in the Decker Room and wasn't sure if he should be glad that they weren't in any immediate danger or worried Deckard might not be on his side in this situation. "Deckard…"

He saw Yuuta come up beside Deckard. "Boss…"

Before he could say anything, Deckard looked at him with a look of utmost disappointment and said "Drill Boy, why didn't you tell us you found the fairy?"

Drill Boy grabbed Fay and held her against his shoulder, concealing her in his servo. 'How did they even find us?'

Yuuta took a step closer and held out his hand, like he was dealing with a child that was playing with something they shouldn't. "Drill Boy, hand it over,"

Drill Boy stepped back and snarled. "No way!"

Deckard cautiously moved closer to the orange mech. "Drill Boy, please listen to us…"

Drill Boy bristled and shouted "Oh, don't give me that 'illegal' nonsense! Look at her!" he moved his servo aside so they could see Fay but still covered her enough to protect her. "She is alive!"

Feeling like he was missing something, Yuuta held up his hands helplessly. "What are you talking about, Drill Boy?"

Drill Boy hid Fay away again. "You said we have to 'follow procedure in accordance to the law'. Any other time we had do to that that we…"

Deckards optics brightened as he realized what Drill Boy was thinking and took another step closer. "Drill Boy, you don't understand. I was referring to protection for the fairy, not…"

Drill Boy interrupted him "LIAR! YOU'RE GOING TO KILL HER!"

Under Drill Boy's servo, Fay's eyes went wide as the mech's words echoed in her ears. Kill her? She didn't want to die. 'Boy… Tor… save me, please…'

Tor looked at Deckard "You wouldn't, would you?"

Drill Boy looked out the corner of one optic at Tor so he could keep an optic on Deckard while he reached for the holster on his hip. "No…" he instinctively drew his gun and pointed it at Deckard "I won't let them!"

Deckard took a step back and swept his leg to the side to nudge Yuuta behind him. "Drill Boy, what are you doing?"

Yuuta stepped around Deckard's ped so he could look up at Drill Boy; he knew for a fact that Drill Boy only used his gun if he absolutely had to and the fact that he was using it now told him just how badly he wanted to keep the fairy away from them. "Drill Boy, wait…"

Drill Boy cocked his gun to let them know he was serious. "SHUT UP!"

Yuuta was about to tell him to put down the gun before someone got hurt but his badge started beeping, signaling an incoming call.

Drill Boy used the brief distraction the beeping gave to tuck Fay into his subspace so he could transform and take off before Yuuta told whoever was calling that they needed back up.

He started to reach for Tor so he could bring the boy with but Deckard lunged for him and got Tor first. "Tor!"

Tor waved him off as Deckard set him next to Yuuta. "Go! Now!"

Drill Boy hesitated but launched himself into the air as Deckard moved to apprehend him and took off as soon as he transformed into his jet mode in mid-air.

While this had been going on, Yuuta answered his badge. "Hello?"

The Commissioner's face appeared on the screen and he seemed to hear some of what was going on. :Yuuta, I just… wait, what is going on there?:

Yuuta looked down at the Commissioner. "Mr. Saejima, Drill Boy found the fairy but he thinks we were supposed to kill her when we found her so he won't let us near her. He just ran away with her,"

The Commissioner frowned. :This is bad. I just spoke to Dr. Madoh's assistant, Akashi. He is in the hospital because Madoh suddenly pulled a gun on him and shot him because he wanted to sell the fairy. He also said that if Dr. Madoh finds anyone near her he will kill them.:

Yuuta's eyes widened. "WHAT?"

The Commissioner nodded.

Yuuta looked up at Deckard, who was still looking up in the direction Drill Boy had gone to try to track his flight path. "Deckard, we have a problem!"

Deckard looked down at Yuuta, he had overheard the conversation but hadn't said anything.

Deckard saw that the Commissioner was still on the call and knelt down so he could hear too as Yuuta asked. "Did Dr. Madoh's assistant say anything else?"

The Commissioner nodded. :He said Dr. Madoh is willing to destroy the entire city to find the fairy if he has to. We found a briefcase full of Dr. Madoh's notes which say he has a tracking devise on the fairy. If he catches up to Drill Boy and finds him with the fairy he will try to kill him.:

Tor felt guilty and wondered whether or not they should have took their chances with Deckard and Yuuta who said they were offering Fay protection but he still wasn't sure what they meant by "protection".

He wheeled himself closer to Yuuta and leaned forward so he could get in the conversation too. "What were you guys going to do with the fairy when you found her?"

The Commissioner looked at Tor. :I'm sorry, who might you be?:

Tor pointed to himself. "Tor Toudou,"

The Commissioner nodded :Shunsuke's nephew? I knew you looked familiar. Well, Tor, we actually have a protection program in place for the fairy. Think of it as something like foster care for children whose family members are in jail.:

He frowned :Let's just hope we get her before Dr. Madoh catches up with Drill Boy. Good luck.:

The screen on Yuuta's badge went dark and Deckard got out his own badge to call the others. "Everyone, we have a situation. Report in!"

McCrane answered first :What's the situation, Deckard?:

Deckard looked in the direction Drill Boy had gone to see if he could at least still see the chemical trail he left behind before looking down at his badge again. "Long story short; we found Drill Boy, Drill Boy found the fairy, Fairy has a tracking device and…"

Power Joe interrupted him :What? The little twerp had the fairy the whole time? Where is he? I'll…:

Deckard cut him off. "Let me finish! Dr. Madoh is tracking the tracking device and we just heard that Dr. Madoh tried to kill his assistant and will kill anyone he finds with the fairy, even if he has to blow up the whole city,"

:Where is Drill Boy now?: Dumpson asked, concerned about Drill Boy.

Deckard looked up at the sky again. "He just left the park, heading south by air,"

Yuuta spoke into his badge. "Everyone, find Drill Boy before Dr. Madoh does,"

:Roger Boss!: everyone answered back and Gunmax said. :Hey, Power Joe, follow me, I know a short cut.:

Power Joe scoffed and said with utmost confidence. :Ah, I don't need a short cut.:

Gunmax laughed across the comm. link. :Why not? You're going the wrong way anyway.:

There was an awkward silence before Power Joe groaned. :Fine, but this short cut of yours had better be an actual shortcut.:

Yuuta hesitated before saying into his badge. "Shadowmaru?"

Shadowmaru answered a moment later. :Yes?:

Yuuta took a deep breath, he promised he wouldn't do what he was about to do but they didn't have a choice now. "We're going to need everyone for this. Could you tell… the other two we need their help? I don't have their frequencies on my badge."

:But we have yours: a female voice cut in.

:What the… who is this?: Power Joe demanded.

:"Hello Kitty": Artemis deadpanned. :We met in California?:

:The femme we brought from America?: McCrane asked. :You're sentient now?:

:What am I? Scrap metal?: Goliath quipped before adding. :Hey, Tomonaga, we'll be there as soon as the tech guys stop freaking out long enough to let us out of here.:

Deckard hit a button on his badge to summon J-Roader. "Goliath, Artemis, I'm calling J-Roader to our location, just follow that and you'll find us,"

:J-Roader?: Artemis asked before saying :I'm going to take a wild guess and say that's the truck that just drove itself out of here.:

Deckard nodded "Yeah, that's it. Just follow it out here…. And we're going to have to explain to Mr. Toudou after we get back,"

Both American Braves could be heard sighing over the comm. links as they said "Yes sir," in unison.

Deckard looked down at Yuuta as he put his badge away and Yuuta nodded. "Let's go,"

Deckard transformed into vehicle mode and opened the door for Yuuta to climb in, shifting the sensors in his headlights towards Tor. "Yuuta, what about him?"

Yuuta looked at Deckard and then at Tor. What were they supposed to do with him? Since he helped Drill Boy hide the fairy while they were looking for her wouldn't that mean he was in just as much trouble as Drill Boy?

And if he was, do they bring him to the precinct or do they go after Drill Boy first?

Coming to a decision, Yuuta nodded and said "Mr. Toudou is your uncle, right?" Tor nodded and Yuuta continued.

"Go to the precinct and wait for us there. If anyone asks tell them you have information on a case we are working on, we'll be back as soon as we get Drill Boy," he gave the other boy a pointed look "And we will have to question both of you about the fairy,"

Then Yuuta realized that Tor might have trouble getting to the precinct in a wheelchair and slapped himself for being inconsiderate. "Oh, uh… need a ride there?"

Tor smiled and waved him off. "No, thanks, I could use the exercise," he turned himself around and wheeled himself away. He stopped after a few feet and looked over his shoulder as Yuuta was getting into Deckard's alt. mode. "They're going to be okay, right?"

"Don't worry," Deckard reassured the boy. "Everything is going to be fine,"

Tor seemed to take his word for it and wheeled himself away while Yuuta shut Deckard's door and buckled himself in. "You sure about that, Deckard?"

Deckard drove out of the park the way they had come so he could get on the road. "The sooner we find Drill Boy, the sooner we can make sure Dr. Madoh doesn't find him or the fairy,"

Yuuta nodded and got out his badge as Deckard pulled onto the highway heading in the general direction Drill Boy had been flying in. "I'm going to try to call Drill Boy. Maybe I can convince him that we're on his side here,"

"Ok,"

Yuuta pressed the call button on his badge and held it up so he could see the screen. "Drill Boy, come in Drill Boy!"

There was static for a moment and Yuuta thought Drill Boy was going to ignore him until there was a ping from his badge as Drill Boy answered, although he sounded frantic and flustered. :B-Boss… OH NO!:

Yuuta could hear Drill Boy scream and the sound of gun shots in the back ground. "Drill Boy!" There was more static and some background noise so Yuuta knew the line was still open but he didn't get any further response from Drill Boy.

"Boss, what happened with Drill Boy?"

Yuuta looked over his shoulder at the sound of McCrane's voice and saw he and Dumpson had caught up to them and were now merging with traffic behind them along with Power Joe and Gunmax who pulled out of another exit. "He got cut off!"

Gunmax pulled up alongside Deckard while Power Joe moved closer to his brothers. "Don't give up just yet. Keep trying, kid,"

Yuuta looked at the mech and then looked down at his badge "Drill Boy, please answer me!"

After a moment they heard static followed by :D-Drill Boy… here.:

Yuuta allowed himself a sigh of relief at the sound of Drill Boy's voice "Drill Boy, thank goodness you're okay," then he continued. "Drill Boy, listen to me. We are not going to hurt your fairy. We will protect her at all costs. I promise,"

Drill Boy spoke again, only it seemed far away and broken off "B-Boss…"

Deckard could tell the younger mech was in a bad way from how he sounded and sped up. "Where are you?"

Just then they hear jet engines overhead and everyone looked up to see Shadowmaru flying overhead in his jet mode alongside an F-22 Raptor. :Everyone this way, hurry! We just saw...:

Dumpson cut him off before he could say anything else "Did you find Drill Boy?"

Goliath cut in. :No, but we saw the son of a bitch that shot him down. Hey, are the rumors that you guys can combine true?:

Yuuta was already getting out his badge as he answered "Yeah, why?"

:Do it, 'cause you're gonna need it,: Everyone winced as Goliath swooped down and flew mere feet above them, making the ground based vehicles shake from the buffeting eddies and sound waves left in his wake and making everyone's ears and audio receptors hurt.

"Hey, watch it!"

"What the hell was that for?"

:GOLIATH!: Artemis scolded her brother, who just laughed as he regained altitude, through the communication lines before apologizing to the others as she caught up with them. :Sorry about that everyone. He gets a bit excitable when he's in the air:

"It's fine. Just be more careful from now on, Goliath," Deckard pulled over and let Yuuta out so he could combine with J-Roader, which had just caught up to them, while the boy gave him and the Build team the Unification Command.

"Brave up!"

Once everyone was done changing and Yuuta was situated in J-Decker's cab, J-Decker and Build Tiger took to the air to follow Goliath.

Shadowmaru started to follow them but noticed Gunmax wasn't changing into Gunmax Armor and dropped down to fly alongside him. "Something wrong, Mr. Motorcycle?"

Gunmax waved him off like a giant mosquito. "Just waiting to see if I need to combine into Gunmax Armor or Max Cannon,"

"Suit yourself," Shadowmaru shot after the others like an arrow and, after gaining enough altitude to see above the tree-line, saw a giant robot shooting at what appeared to be a grove of trees.

'What's this now?' he enhanced his optic sensors to zoom in on what was going on and saw Drill Boy leaning against a tree and taking heavy fire from the robot. "Drill Boy is being pinned under heavy fire. He is taking continuous direct hits,"

J-Decker took out J-Buster and unfolded it. "Not for long,"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Drill Boy fell back against a nearby tree, driven back and knocked off his peds by heavy fire from Dr. Madoh's robot… what did he call it? Gyrobot?

He could feel Fay trying to crawl through the large hole that had been left in his hold when a shot went through the metal covering it but he held his servo over it. "Fay, don't come out!"

"Boy! Boy!" Fay pounded her fists against his servo and tried to pry his digits apart so she could slip through, to surrender herself so Dr. Madoh would stop hurting him.

Drill Boy just sat there and took the punishment being dealt to him until his arm-servo started to become limp and his servo started to slip away.

Seeing an opportunity, Fay squeezed through and flew up to hover between Drill Boy and Gyrobot. After gathering enough solar energy from the sunlight beating down on her, Fay emitted as much light as she could to blind Dr. Madoh just as she had done to Tor and Drill Boy before.

'How dare he hurt my friends!' Fay though angrily. 'He doesn't even want me back, not for real. He's just greedy and doesn't want anyone else to have me!'

As planned, Dr. Madoh was blinded by the light and moved Gyrobot's servo in front of the viewing window he saw through to block out the worst of the light. "Ah! Can't see!"

Firing blindly, he started shooting at everything around him, not caring who or what he hit. "Where are you?"

Seeing he was distracted, Fay stopped emitting the light and flew back to Drill Boy. 'I've got to get Boy out of here' Fay tried pulling on his servo to get him to follow but she couldn't even move his digits.

Drill Boy saw what Fay was doing and tried to get up but couldn't. Fay saw this and just pulled harder. Drill Boy realized what the tiny fairy was trying to do. "Are you trying to pull me?"

It was insane, Fay was smaller than even his smallest digit but here she was trying to pull him. "Fay, stop. You won't be able to pull me. Get out of here!"

Fay looked up at him, eyes brimming with tears. "Boy…"

Unfortunately, they ran out of time as Dr. Madoh's vision cleared again. "There you are…"

The Gyrobot stepped closer to them. "Well, you've certainly given me invaluable data, my fairy. I honestly didn't think our theory on how to make you emit light like that was valid but now that I know I will be able to create a new and better fairy," he leveled his blaster at them. "Sadly, now I have no further use for you. Goodbye,"

Both Fay and Drill Boy froze as he leveled his gun at them. This was it, they thought, they were going to die.

Suddenly, at the last possible second, another shot rang through the air and hit the gun, knocking the shot askew.

Drill Boy and Fay both winced, thinking it was Dr. Madoh who fired but then Drill Boy saw that this wasn't the case when that shot was followed by several others that forced Gyrobot away from them.

He looked around for the source. 'What was that?'

Dr. Madoh also looked around "What the…"

Before he could react, Build Tiger and J-Decker landed between him and Drill Boy, the latter holding a still-smoking J-Buster and taking aim at Gyrobot. "That's enough, Adolf Madoh!"

Build Tiger looked at Drill Boy to see if he was alright and, after seeing his injuries, glared at the enemy robot. "How dare you do this to our friend?!"

Drill Boy looked up at Build Tiger and J-Decker standing between him and Dr. Madoh's robot. "Guys…" his injuries caught up to him and his legs gave out but someone caught him.

"Jeez, all beat up again?" Drill Boy looked to his left and saw Gunmax supporting him on that side.

Drill Boy felt someone on his other side and looked over at them, expecting to see Shadowmaru there since everyone else had been accounted for, instead he saw the only femme on the team. "Huh? How…"

Artemis pushed him back so he was leaning against the tree again. "Easy, you've been badly damaged,"

Drill Boy struggled and tried to reach for Fay. "I'm fine help Fay, she's the one he's after. No, don't step on her!" he pushed Gunmax away when the Motorcycle Detective looked around to see where, or who, Fay was.

Artemis tilted her helm to the side, audio finials perked in confusion and curiosity. "Fay?"

Fay flew into Drill Boy's servos to hide in them but Drill Boy held her up so his teammates could see her.

"Oh, Fay," Artemis knelt down next to Drill Boy and smiled at the fairy in his servos "Hey, little one, alright if I check your friend's injuries?"

Fay considered for a moment and looked at Drill Boy before nodding.

"Thank you," Artemis looked at Drill Boy. "Now, let's get you looked over,"

While this was going on, Dr. Madoh looked around and saw that the entire Brave Police contingent was there and realized he was outnumbered. "Dammit…" he took off, hoping to avoid capture.

Unfortunately, he didn't get very far as two jets dove down from above and opened fire on him, keeping him from leaving the clearing.

"And just where do you think you're going?" Shadowmaru asked smugly as he and Goliath harried the Gyrobot so it couldn't fly away.

J-Decker and Build Tiger started to join the fight but Build Tiger stopped the other mech and said "Leave this to us,"

It took them a moment to realize they were hearing Dumpson's voice. Then they heard Power Joe say "He'll get a serious whooping for what he did to our Drill Boy,"

"Then let's give it to him," McCrane's voice growled as Build Tiger launched himself towards Gyrobot.

Yuuta looked over at where Artemis and Gunmax were holding Drill Boy. "Drill Boy!"

J-Decker turned and knelt down so he was more at their level and saw that Gunmax and Artemis were holding Drill Boy between them as he struggled to stand.

Yuuta could only watch as Drill Boy—innocent and fun-loving Drill Boy—tried to act all tough despite how weak and beat up he was. "Drill Boy…"

He looked at Gunmax. "Gunmax, take Drill Boy back to base,"

"On it," Gunmax started to pull Drill Boy over to where he had parked Gunbike but Drill Boy resisted.

"No, really guys, I'm fine,"

Fay flew up to hug Drill Boy's face plates, crying. "Boy!"

Drill Boy looked down at Fay and, seeing how much he worried her, nuzzled her. "I'm fine, Fay," he looked up at Yuuta with pleading optics "Please, Boss, let me unite with my team! I can do it, really,"

Yuuta looked him for a moment before sighing and nodding. "Let him go, you two,"

Gunmax looked at Yuuta in confusion, like he didn't know what to make of the situation, then threw up his servos in a "whatever" gesture as he let go of Drill Boy.

Artemis looked at Yuuta. "Sir, as a medic I must advise against this. But since you're commanding officer here…" she let Drill Boy go and stepped back "Not a lot I can do about it,"

Drill Boy looked at them. "Thanks, guys," he looked at Fay and then at Artemis and Gunmax. "Can one of you watch out for Fay for me?"

Gunmax snorted and jerked his thumb towards Artemis with a smirk. "Give her to Miss Ambulance, I don't baby sit,"

Artemis gave him a sharp look but held out her servos for Fay. "Come here, little one. I won't bite,"

Fay, on the other hand, flew into a nearby bush to hide, unsure if she would feel safe around these strangers once Drill Boy left her with them.

Artemis held up her servos in a shrug. "Or just hide in the bushes, that's cool too,"

After making sure Fay someplace safe, Drill Boy hobbled a running start and tried to launch himself into the air to fly up to where Build Tiger was fighting Gyrobot, a fight that was start to tilt in the latter's favor, but fell to the ground.

"Ouch…" he turned over and looked at the thrusters in his peds. "Crap, thrusters are still busted from when he shot me down,"

J-Decker knelt next to Drill Boy and held out his servos to the smaller mech. "Come on,"

Drill Boy saw that J-Decker meant to carry him up to the fight and nodded "Okay…"

J-Decker picked Drill Boy up in his arm-servos like a toddler and took off, flying right for the fight taking place above the clearing.

Meanwhile, Shadowmaru and Goliath gave whatever air support they could while Build Tiger fought the Gyrobot hand-to-hand until the opposing robot got in a lucky shot that clipped Shadowmaru's wing.

"Dammit, not again!" the Ninja Detective tried to fly steady but he kept careening to the side.

"Hang on," Goliath banked sharply to fly under him. "Grab on,"

Shadowmaru transformed into robot mode and grabbed onto the Raptor's fuselage. "Thanks,"

"No problem," Goliath dove down to fly close to the ground where Shadowmaru slipped off of him to land on all fours while Goliath shot back up to help the others.

While they executed this maneuver, Build Tiger looked to make sure Shadowmaru was alright, having seen the mech lose altitude. This distracted him long enough that Gyrobot was able to land a sucker punch to the face plate and a kick to the abdomen.

Build Tiger moved back to hover just out of reach of the Gyrobot, systems reeling. 'Dammit, getting low on power,'

The Build Team was able to pool their energy and other resources together when they combined but as it were it didn't seem to be enough to be Gyrobot, just hold their own against it until they ran out. However, if they could combine into Super Build Tiger they would be able to end the fight rather quickly… unfortunately, such would be impossible without Drill Boy.

"Guys!" Build Tiger turned at the sound of Drill Boy's voice and saw J-Decker flying up to them with Drill Boy in his arm-servos. The Soccer Detective reached out for his brothers. "Let me unite with you!"

Power Joe's voice came from Build Tiger. "What? Drill Boy that's crazy!"

Dumpson agreed. "Look at yourself. You can't fight like that,"

"Go back to base, Drill Boy, you need repairs," McCrane told him.

Yuuta sat up in his seat in J-Decker's cab, pleading with them. "Guys, please let him!"

Yuuta was near tears in desperation; yes, Drill Boy was hurt but at the rate things were going if they didn't stop Dr. Madoh there was a good chance he wasn't going to stop until at least one of them ended up killed.

That and Drill Boy was hell bent on getting back at Dr. Madoh for everything he had done.

The others seemed to realize this and Build Tiger nodded. "Alright,"

Once J-Decker flew close enough, he threw Drill Boy up so he had room to transform and Drill Boy initiated the docking sequence in mid-air to combine with Build Tiger and form Super Build Tiger.

Once the docking sequence was complete, Super Build Tiger felt the electricity coursing through its circuits as all of the energy from the four mechs flowed together, making the combined mech even stronger than before.

Unknowing of this, Dr. Madoh laughed arrogantly. "Do you really think merging yourselves with a fool hardy daredevil is going to help you?"

Somewhere within Super Build Tiger's psyche, Drill Boy glared at Gyrobot. 'This "fool hardy daredevil" happens to be pissed at you,'

Unknown to everyone else, when the Build Team combines into Build Tiger or Super Build Tiger they could feel each other's pain, emotions—heck, they were practically one being—and when Drill Boy united with them to fight Dr. Madoh as Super Build Tiger they all felt not only the pain from his injuries but also his rage as though it were their own.

Doubling up a fist, Super Build Tiger drew back and punched Gyrobot in the face plates.

Dr. Madoh stared in shock; he and his assistant had been leading the Brave Police on wild goose chases all day and he was fairly certain they hadn't had any real chance to recharge themselves and everyone knew machines needed to recharge at some point.

"How is this possible? They should be low on power by now…"

After flying higher to gain more altitude, Super Build Tiger doubled his fist and dove down, the dive adding to the momentum of the punch aimed at Gyrobot's chest.

Super Build Tiger punched Gyrobot right through its chest "THIS…"

They grabbed a fistful of wires and ripped them out. "IS…."

"FOR…" Super Build Tiger grabbed Gyrobot's arm-servo and twisted it around until it popped off like the cap of a soda bottle.

"FAY!" Dr. Madoh saw they were going to rip Gyrobot's head off next and ejected an escape pod from the robot's head and piloted it away.

He didn't get very far though, as J-Decker swooped in to catch the pod in his servo. "Adolf Madoh, you are under arrest for charges of illegal bio-science research,"

Dr. Madoh increased the output of the pod's thruster's but J-decker just tightened his grip to let him know he wasn't going anywhere so he shut it down in surrender; there was no escape for him this time.

J-Decker and Super Build Tiger landed next to where Gyrobot's body landed, Goliath landing next to his sister in his robot mode a moment later.

Yuuta got out his badge to call for pick-up for the crook. "Commissioner, we've got Dr. Madoh. We'll bring him back to the precinct when we bring Drill Boy back for repairs; he got shot down by Dr. Madoh's robot before we could catch up,"

The Commissioner acknowledged him. :Yuuta, wait there, I'm sending someone to your location to transport Dr. Madoh to custody and collect his robot.:

"Ok," Yuuta saw Shadowmaru limping along the tree line in his wolf mode. "We might need to send Shadowmaru back to base for repairs too; he got shot down again,"

Shadowmaru looked in Yuuta's general direction. "I heard that, I'm fine, Little Boss,"

Toudou came on the communiqué next. :I am going to give all of you thorough check-ups when you get back so it doesn't matter who you send back.:

"Ok, we'll just wait here with Dr. Madoh in the meantime," Yuuta ended the call.
