Drake rushed at the Poké-Digi Tank as it fired a variety of lasers at him. He managed to dodge most of them and take a few blast to his shoulders before he reach the machine and punched it with one of his big fist, but as his fist made contact with the chest plate it unleashed a powerful electrical surge that struck Drake and sent him flying back to the ground stunned. The chest of the Poké-Digi Tank was greatly battered and dented, but the machine was still functioning and ready to continue fighting. The Poké-Digi Tank pointed one of it's cannon arms at Drake and fired a large metal net that wrapped itself around the dragon's body.
"Oh boy! I caught me a big one!" Laughed Frenemy as he controlled the tank and pointed it's guns at Drake prepared to finish him off.
"You think you have me? Well think again!" Roared Drake as he used a great deal of strength to rip the net off his body!
"WHAT?!" Cried Frenemy in shock.
"I am Drake the Dragon! I date Gearga the Daughter of War and I fought against War himself to earn his respect and blessing to love and date his daughter! I will defeat you and win this war!" Declared Drake as he flew at the Poké-Digi Tank.
Drake grabbed the tank's gun arms and yanked on them hard. There was a loud tearing sound as both arms were ripped right off the machine.
"I've been disarmed!" Yelled Frenemy.
Drake grabbed the Poké-Digi Tank's main body picking it up. The tank unleashed a powerful electrical pulse to try and knock Drake back, but the dragon refused to let go. Drake shot thirty feet into the air taking the Poké-Digi Tank with him. He then hurled the tank towards the ground and fired a massive blast of fire at it, striking the machine as it plummeted to the ground.
"Too HOT!" Cried Frenemy as the Poké-Digi Tank burned and melted before hitting the ground with a mighty crash.
Drake landed on the ground near the defeated machine and let out a roar of victory, before changing back to his humanoid form. After a bit of rest, Drake went off to see what other battles were going on and who needed his help.
Back in the Capitol, Martin was fighting Topaz One, while Sarah was fighting both Topaz Two and Mandie. Martin tried quickly taking Topaz One down with his laser pistol, but the big gem easily knocked the weapon from his hand with her mace, forcing Martin to fight with his sword and shield and rely on his wits to deal with his bigger opponent. Sarah was on the defensive with her fight. Mandie was proving herself to be quick and skillful with a blade and Sarah had to also be careful of Topaz Two, who might not have been as quick as Mandie, but made up for her lack of speed with her strength. Sarah would block a few quick blows from Mandie, push her back, and quickly dive and roll out of the way of a swing from Topaz Two. This went on for awhile and Sarah was starting to feel herself get tired. Martin meanwhile decided to have some small talk with Topaz One.
"So what's the deal with you and that little blue fairy that flew off?" Asked Martin as he avoided a mace swing.
"That little blue fairy you are referring to is my superior Aquamarine. I am her loyal subordinate and I follow her orders, along with my compatriot." Said Topaz as she tried to grab Martin, but missed.
"Your superior huh? She doesn't seem all that great considering the fact she fled the scene and left you and your friend to fight and deal with us." Said Martin blocking a mace swing with his shield.
"Do not speak of my superior like that!" Yelled Topaz One.
"I'm just pointing out that your superior is a bad leader. I mean she flys off to do something and leaves you with the hard work. Not to mention Aquamarine froze your friend and yelled at her, for it, when it was Aquamarine's fault that happened." Said Martin.
"Aquamarine is just under a lot of pressure." Said Topaz One looking a bit unsure of herself.
"Sure she is. Look I've traveled the stars a bit and I've met my fair share of leaders over the years. I know how to spot the differences between a good leader and a bad one. Aquamarine is a bad one and I'll tell you why. A bad leader makes their subordinate fight their battles and do all the hard work and never thanks them for it. They mistreat their workers and view them as tools, but never equals or of anything valuable. Aquamarine mistreats you abandoned you and your comrade. If you do succeed in capturing me, she won't thank you." Said Martin.
Topaz One was a bit stunned by these and when she thought about her past work with Aquamarine, she began to realize that Martin was right about Aquamarine being a bad leader. It was then that a group of Morbidian Blood Monks, and Frenemy controlled Dominator robots charged onto the scene and began to attack everyone. A bunch of monks threw themselves at Topaz One and managed to disarm her and force her to the ground. A large Dominator robot marched up and prepared to fire a powerful laser into Topaz One's face, when a energy blast shot right through the robot causing the robot to collapse to the ground. Several more laser blast knocked the monks off of Topaz One and freed her. Topaz One looked up to see that her rescuer was Martin, who had regained his laser pistol. Martin walked over to Topaz One and offered her, his hand.
"Why did you save me? I'm your enemy." Said Topaz One looking very confused.
"I'm not going to simply stand on the side and watch you bite the dust like that. As I already told you, you have a bad leader and your actions are on her head not yours. I'm a pretty good judge of character and I think your not my enemy and that you just need a second chance and a change of scenery. Its time you start making your own choices and decisions." Said Martin.
"Thank you." Said Topaz One as she took Martin's hand and he helped her up.
While all that was going on a couple of newcomers joined in on the battle. Sarah was cutting a few robots down, when some large metal fist and clawed hands grabbed her from behind and lifted her up in the air. She struggled to break free, but couldn't. Sarah turned to see who was holding her and saw it was Scrapperton.
"Mind if I join in?" Asked Scrapperton looking at Mandie.
"Don't mind if you do. Just hold her there and I'll finish her off." Said Mandie as she readied her sword for a thrust.
With a wild yell Mandie charged forward prepared to stab the sword into Sarah's chest! Sarah closed her eyes and waited for the end, but a the last possible second, Ling jumped in on the scene and deflected Mandie's swords with one of his own. Ling then knocked Ling back with a kick to the chest. Mandie recovered and fire a blast of flames from her sword. The flames engulfed Ling and it seemed like he was finished, until he stepped through the flames in Greed's armored form. Greed swung his claws at a stunned Mandie and shattered her sword. He then punched her in the face knocking the villain into a dazed heap on the ground. Ling then took over and used one of his swords to slice at the arms restraining Sarah and freed her. Scrapperton stumbled back looking at his sliced arms and at Ling and Sarah. He wasn't liking his odds or chances, so he decided to retreat instead.
"He who runs away, lives to fight another day." Said Scrapperton as he quickly scooped up the dazed Mandie and took off running.
Ling and Sarah considered going after the fleeing villains, but they had another problem in the form of Topaz Two, who had just finished the last of the monks and robots off. Topaz Two was fixing to charge in and attack, when Topaz One got in her way and stood before her.
"What are you doing?" Demanded Topaz Two.
"Stoping you from hurting people and from continuing to follow a bad leader." Said Topaz One.
"What about Aquamarine's orders?" Asked Topaz Two.
"Aquamarine doesn't care about us and is a terrible leader. Its time the two of us start making our own choices and decisions. I choose for us to be fused and that we start helping the defenders." Said Topaz One.
Topaz Two looked at Topaz One and took her hands. The two smiled at one another as they were enveloped in a flash of light and we're back to being Topaz.
"Alright let's move out. This invasion is still going and we still need to fight." Said Martin.
The others nodded and they all head out to keep fighting.
To be continued.
