Mecha Show Expo! (Open)

(("Both Of You, Dance Like You Want To Win!"))

The Mecha Minotaur would both launch its offensive, and take hits from various directions in a most unorthodox manner as it moved. It began with one leg moving to take a better position, but an argument ensued. "N-No! You'll crush someone!" In a sudden jerked motion, the Mecha Minotaur tried to avoid stepping on Nightwing despite the damages it caused so far by lifting its leg and almost losing balance.

"Hey, cut it out! You'll make us fall!" said the second voice. By that point, the fire from Indicus' mech was hitting the large mecha, and although it wasn't really dealing any significant damage due to not keeping a sustained attack, it was making it harder for the pilots to focus as Dusty's missiles came along. "O-Open fire!!" With its firebreath unleashed, it took out a good number of the missiles before they all got close-partially aiming the fire at Dusty's cockpit as well, but some got to hit the head section for minor-moderate damage between it and the sudden barrage from Sandy's tank-mech.

The third voice spoke by then in a panic. "Ah!! G-Gotta shake it off the visors!!" And so began to spin the head in a clockwise manner to crudely shrug off the acid and bullet direct barrage, and somewhat working. By then, Alpha's shot would hit the raised leg, the impact causing moderate damage to the thick armor and causing another strong jerking motion, and more arguing in the large mecha's cockpit. "Th-the rocket activated!?" Along with the force of momentum from the large shell shot, a rocket thrust was forced to occur, which sent the lower half of the giant mech into a spinning frenzy counter-clockwise.

"Stop panicking you cowards!! Do I have to do everything myself!? You get the wax ready, and you keep shooting!!" With the arms spread out towards Indicus' mech, fingers opening holes on the ends of each, the Mecha Minotaur hopped on one leg towards Indicus' mech as 60mm gattling gun rounds fired from all ten holes of the fingers to try and suppress his movements and discourage further attack, the other leg still spinning rapidly as if meaning to kick the mech very hard if they got too close. The horns were launching a barrage of bolts all over, mainly towards Sandy and Alpha's mechs, while flaming breath would continue to spew out in a broad circle to all mechs, if crudely... Nightwing had best take caution not to get caught in the line of fire.

music blurred from the sky, if focused upon a figure could be seen and if zoomed in on it was a humanoid the about 7.6ft tall, seemingly head to foot mechanical but could be a suit for a short person, or tight armour for a huge person, either way smaller than all the mechs sofar. the figure was moving fast, scratch that falling fast and it was going straight for the big mean looking one it was beginning to form a mach cone as boosters on it flared, it could be fought a projectile if not for the fact that the figure was pulling back for a unch. keeping its speed and super heating its hand it went in for the punch going for whatever part of it it met first, aiming for the side of the torso. the the direct force in tones was in the tens of kilo tonnes. the whole time the music played.

Indicus watched the mini gun rounds ping off his armor doing little damage to the tough armor of the Star adder. Indicus switched to the plasma PPC's and charged and releaced the purple orbs of plasma in rapid sucsession with small breaks to let the star adder cool off.

Alpha chuckled at the reaction his shot got. Then opened up a channel to all of the nearby mechs while he dodged bolts. "Howdy Fellas." He greets, getting his rockets ready to launch. "Listen up, If we attack the weak spots together, we'll do a lot more damage to this thing. First thing's first, we should got for the legs. There's less armor and we'll get it immobile!" He then presses a button and launches a volley of rockets at the Mech's legs, following up with a hail of fire from his 100mm machine gun.

Nightwing cursed, voice popping up a bit, and dashed into cover. "Bullets. Of course they have bullets. " He sighed, figuring he wasn't going to be much use here.

Dust quickly contracted her legs, allowing the fire to fly over her head. "Seems we're rather evenly matched," Dust murmured.

"Backing up"
Sandy floored backwards to dodge the Minotaur volts. switching to the same channel as alpha.
"How about we shot it in the privates?, that how most guys go down, Is that thing a guy it sounds like a guy but could just be a very masculine girl."Sandy said over the radio. (Hard to tell if she joking or not)
Sandy moved her aim to the joints in the legs. still firing with the assault rifle.

Though the Star Adder was certainly an imposing mech in its own right, the heavy fire from the Mecha Minotaur at an ever shorter range meant that the 60mm ammo barrage kept hitting at terminal velocity, denting away at the tough armor eventually rather than just shrugging it off as it did at first when all focus was at the torso. The giant mech also didn't slow down as it got shot by the plasma bolts, and though some noticeable marks were left on its armor with each shot taken, it only seemed to empower its still active electrical charge horns. The Minotaur was effectively enduring the energy shots even at close range much like it did with Dusty's electrical attack earlier; The Star Adder would not be able to out-tank the bigger tank approaching it with its current tactics. It also might've taken a more severe blow when the Minotaur moved close enough to hit it since it never moved away fast enough... were it not for the 6th one to join the fray in the powersuit coming from the sky to hit the giant mecha away somewhat, resulting in the Mecha Minotaur bashing and crushing only the left arm weapon of the Star Adder like a wrecking ball with its spinning rocket leg before it finally lost its balance and fell back, temporarily halting its attacks and trying to regain control. "Quick! Quick! Put the shields back up! What was that anyway!? More foes!?"

"The jamming device should still be working, Boss! What's happening!?"

"This is getting bad... Dangit! Call for reinforcements! I don't care what the price is!"

While the Mecha Minotaur tried to curl up awkwardly to take cover from incoming fire and regain its stance, an olimpic-sized pool some distance away would drain itself of its water as a similarly colored and armored Mecha Unicorn on all fours rose from it, single horn charging with electricity as well. Eventually, an echoed and distorted unfamiliar voice would be heard from it as well. "Bout time... Your donation of bits is appreciated..." At a little over 15m high, but far longer in length and thick with armor, the strange new mech began to charge towards the Mecha Minotaur's rescue, making an unsettling metallic roaring neigh...

Meanwhile, Dawn could still have some time to think of his next move in relative safety. As for the newcomer, she still had a chance to move after dealing a hard surprise blow from above, though the Mecha Minotaur was meant to take a beating. Chances were it could outlast her, but with a group she had a much better chance against it if she persisted...

"Fucking damn it!" Indicus shouted in his seat as he backed off, pissed that he just lost the weapon on the left arm of his mech. Then Indicus noticed the new mech that just entered and it was not on their side. "Fuck seems I'm just limited to the PPC's, flame thrower and one auto canon." Indicus then called out to his ally's "I need to know if there is a shielding device on the enemy newcomer  because if not I should be able to take it out of the game quite quickly armor or not." Indicus heard his computer update 'Alpha Strike Ready'

Seeing as the combat properly would go on and on took Umbra her little cart with lemonade, brain bleach and what not and began to head home, a little sadden over not having had more than a single sale, but one sale was better than no sales in a way.

Alpha shurgged at the lack of a response from anyone and launched another salvo of rockets, running from cover into a better spot to fire from the flank. "Warning. Rockets depleted." The computerized voice said. Aloha cursed and aimed another canon shot at a weak spot in the armor between the joints.

Nightwing crouched behind a vendor's stall to think about what to do next. They have guns, missiles, lazers, and giant metal robots. I have a sword. An incredibly cool sword. But it's still a sword. Wait, is that... Under the counter, a lock-box had been broken open in the fighting. Inside was a very large, very nice sniper rifle in three easy-to-assemble pieces. The price tag was missing, probably somewhere beneath his feet, but it didn't matter. The rest of the vendor's stall was remarkably empty, so he must've forgotten about it. Maybe it wasn't worth it to grab. However, weapons of convenience are exactly something a pony gets to pick off hand, as if some sort of magical angle floated around them giving them whatever they needed. He assembled the pieces and looked for any ammo. The rifle was surprisingly heavy, and the ammo slot was massive. Actually, the whole darn thing was massive. Good thing it had a bi-pod....

Finding some, he lays out in between tents, bi-pod set up, and takes aim at the damage spots in the Minotaur's horns. It seemed to be gathering energy there. Besides, that's how you kill a Minotaur; you use it's own body against it. Breathing out, he took the shot at the base of the horn. Holding in the resulting scream produced instead a groan. It had a kick that felt like it could take a shoulder clean off. What is this shooting, grenades?

"How much punishment can one dude take. How come I feel like that came out wrong."
Sandy said as she continue to shot for the joints of the mech.

sky jumped into the air and used all the assistance boosters to throw her downward at the fallen mech, once again putting all she had into it, this time tho, staying there to punch it it over and over as hard as she could her thrusters jetting up to max to hit as hard as she could her thists superheating, hoping to get in it soon. "open up or i'll open you up!" she shouted as she continued to hit harder, moving around on the mech to avoid friendly fire.

The Mecha Minotaur was being initially overwhelmed, but as a couple of the heavier mechs weren't being as aggressive, it slowly tried to get back up, even as Sky pounded away on its tough armor. As it were, Alpha's obvious canon shot would be blocked by one of the large shielded arms, but that left it more open to Nightwing's attack instead which hit the horn base dead-on, briefly shorting out the energy it was giving off, as well as giving Sky more time to keep weakening the thick armor around the neck while Sandy kept her barrage constantly to further slow down the enemy's recovery somewhat, though she should avoid firing too much as all her long range weapons relied on ammo, lest it run out when it may count later on.

However, the Mecha Unicorn had been unopposed in its approach, and was left freely able to attack its first three targets: Alpha's mech with a full power horn energy attack as it fired on the Minotaur from the left; Indicus' mech would be attacked by a full power fire breath from its left as well, and Sandy's tank-mech would get attacked by a tri-barrel cannon barrage from under the chest area of the other enemy mech.

As the Mecha Minotaur rose still with less distractions, it would keep one arm defending it, while the other went to try and grab Sky...

Dust had spent her time reloading, and proceeded to fire her EMP at the new unicorn threat, hoping that at least one wasn't EMP-hardened. That shit was expensive.

Alpha's too distracted with the Minotaur, would recieve a direct hit by the beam weapon. It knocked the mech over, causing a good bit of damage. Lights flickered, and sparks flew everywhere. Alarms sounded loudly and the friendly voice was screaming in his head. "WARNING: CRITICAL DAMAGE SUSTAINED. ADVISING IMMEDIATE ACTION!"

"Whoa! Whoa! What he hell!" Alpha would shout, making the mech pick itself back up and turning to face the giant unicorn. "This day just gets better and better, doesn't it... Alright, buddy. You just succeeded in pissing me off." The mech collects it's weapon and face down the opponent. Everyone else was busy, so he'd take on the newcomer first, flicking on the intercom. "Heads up, folks. New hostile behind us!" He then makes the charge, going to tackle the unicorn mechs front legs. He was plenty heavy enough to do some damage to them.

Indicus saved the alpha strike for later and fired upon the unicorn mech once it used it's flame thrower he backed away as he fired his plasma ppc's into the newcomer making hitting the horn the priority.

Lagnia was in one of the hangars, inside of his Ahmazeke mecha, trying to start it, if at all possible. He tried every single switch, attempting to see if anything at all was working. Then he came to a realization. He looked over at a glass case, and lifted it, revealing a striped yellow button labelled 'Overdrive'. He balled up a clawed hand into a fist and slammed it into the button. The interior sprang to life, each screen showing up with a 'Caution' banner on each one. The main system OS immediately spoke. "Warning, overdrive activated. Safety measures offline."

The door to the hangar burst open as the Ahmazeke flew out of it at super-sonic speeds, making its way to the battle in no time. Lagnia saw the Minotaur mech getting attacked by multiple different mechs, and then saw the unicorn mech. He immediately opened fire with his Karasawa plasma cannon, firing at least 25 bolts of plasma at the mech.

Nightwing drew back the lock and slid another bullet in the chamber. He'd noticed the unicorn, but decided taking out one target and then moving to another would be more prudent. He aimed for the exact same spot, hoping still to crack it or break it off. With any luck, it would exploded. Once again, he took the shot, a tear streaming down his cheek.

Sandy sensed that their was somebody about to strike (AKA Heard the unicorn hoof steps.) Quickly turning to face the unicorn and using the minigun on her tank to shoot back at the tricannons trying to at least shoot the bullet out of the way.
"Now what the buck does this hook thing do? Cannon or something?" Unsure, she point the non assault rifle arm at the unicorn head and push the button inside the control pit.

((Fearsome Dark Rider))

"You can't be serious..." Spoke the pilot of the Unicorn Mecha, as it turned out to be just as resilient reducing the effect of the EMP wave on impact as the Mecha Minotaur; Its electric horn merely growing more in static after the impact like the other, further strengthening their relationship to one another. It also seemed wary of Alpha's movements, since it seemed to slow down as the pegasus moved in for an charge. "Think you're hot stuff, huh? Come closer then..." Indicus' plasma shots would, just like before, only deal the most minimal of damage even on the horn, further proving along with Dusty that something was making the enemy mechs highly resistant to energy attacks in general beyond just having thick armor.

While Lagnia and his high-end mech would show up in time, the barrage of plasma shots would also end up being just as minimally damaging once more, especially as it was a smaller mech, though it did seem to have some more notable effect this time when the Mecha Unicorn seemed to stall in its movements during the additional energy impacts, along with the horn sparking static further. It would serve Alpha somewhat since it gave him time to hit the legs as the Unicorn Mech tried to rise up, but he was now also at point-blank range from the under-chest tri-barrel cannons; They opened fire upon his mech for direct hull damage... Alpha might still survive, but his mech was getting in terrible shape as it took moderate damage with the latest barrage, while the hind legs of the larger mech he was trying to tackle were still rather fully functonal, and pushing back against him as if intending to trample his own mech... The face of the machine he was facing against roared metallically towards his view with steam from its nostrils as well...

Once the barrage from Lagnia's mech ended for now, the Unicorn Mech began its counter by releasing its own barrage in return towards it. It also seemed to be continuously wary of Indicus' position, as well as the condition of Alpha's main cannon.


Meanwhile, Sandy's spontaneous effort would result in deflecting one shot just above her, one would already miss, and... grabbing the last cannon shell with the claw arm mid shot. What she thought was a hook shot was just a regular manipulator for her tank-mech. It was a fine choice however, as she had prevented the shot from hitting the main eye-camera view of her mech. Even the Turtle Bot applauded her. "Turtle. Perfect timing. But you should keep fighting. Turtle." Her companion even frantically pointed at Alpha's mech, who was in severe need of aid of any sort.

Over at Dusty's mech, her companion did the same to aid her judgement, pointing at how Sky took too long to move away and was grabbed by the Mecha Minotaur once it got up, this time also narrowly avoiding another shot from the same heavy rifle by Nightwing. If nothing else, he bought more time for Sky to try to escape as the Mecha Minotaur aimed its arm towards Dusty's mech, preparing for another attack while one of the pilots spoke. "Dangit, the horn circuit was knocked loose! I told you to screw the bolts tighter!" said one of the frantic pilots.

"Could you possibly tell everybody louder!?" said one who was more full of snark.

"We're still being listened to...?"

"GET BACK TO WORK ALREADY AND FIGHT!!" said the frustrated 'leader' before a barrage of 60mm shots fired from its fingers towards Dusty's mech who should've seen it coming by now with her company warning still. Sky was caught in a large grasp, but the pilots didn't seem to be trying to crush her as they worked on getting their bearings again.

sky was caught, but not done, she began to struggle against the hand, and rejoiced at its rigidity, if her face could be seen, the smile would be scary to most, her limbs began to super heat and with that she began to put her effort into melting the joints to make them stuck and brittle, the arm began letting out gasses that with the help of a magnetic field were superheated to plasma, the forced outward to the hand., shy then would crawl into the now non-mobile hand and began to squat jack the hand.


lightning had been sedentary most of the time the fight was going on, mildly thirsty for a drink, but regardless she shrugged, it was time she displayed her skills on the oath of a minotaur mech, she started to form a magnetic tunnel around herself. this part was not too visible except the electric goldish magic tube around her. after a few seconds a bright light began streaming through it, this could be regarded as sun fire, and it was becoming more and more plentiful. the ring was lifted over her head, and began to orbit her bionic arm. she slapped some mana runes in front of her that cast a very highly magnetized beam each, all pointed at different parts of the field of the mech, and with that she cast the "sun fire" at the mech like a beam with a cutting motion.

Alpha had made it below the unicorn mecha, heavily damaged and now only taking more hits from underbelly canons. The warning lights flashed and the alarms wailed in his ears. "So it's going to be like that is it?" He says. He got a crazy idea in his head. But he lived on crazy, so it was perfect. His main cannon had reloaded, so he pointed it directly up, and let the warhead fly, shooting for the underbelly of the mech. Hopefully it would be far less armored than the rest of the mech, and he could make an opening large enough to climb into.

Lagnia saw the unicorn mech stall at each of his Karasawa shots, and he got an idea. But first, the unicorn opened with a barrage. Bad idea. The barrage would meet empty air as the Ahamazeke vanished, and then the pilot of the unicorn mech would hear something terrifyingly loud. A nuclear armament alarm. It was coming from the Ahamzeke, and there was good reason too. The laser blade from its left arm glowed white, and was over 49 meters long, dwarfing the smaller mech. By the time it would be able to react, it was too late. Ahamazeke plunged its blade into the unicorn mech faster than most mechs could even shoot.
