Comedy = Tragedy + Time

After a few moments of mechanical spasms, the crustacean falls to the ground, seemingly inactive... only for a spark of energy to ignite a massive, blinding explosion...

《 MISSION : COMPLETE ! 》

FUCKING CACKLING.

“YEAH, GET RID OF THAT EYESORE!”

With one last, resounding ping, all three Biometal in the room light up in unison, gems shining as a sort of greeting.

Afterward, Model L begins floating toward Aile, practically magnetized to the presence of the other two Biometal on her person...

“I currently have nothing better to do right now than to be an ass and cause more negative energy to spread.”

Yanks his head back so he's looking up at the Wily Star.

lmao.

“What in the copyright clusterfuck is floating in orbit right now?”

There wasn't much else it could do, other than guide @resistanceciel.bsky.social further through the halls of the base, seemingly tugging her, just the slightest bit, as if trying to move towards...

Whoever it was trying to find.

...something makes an audible, and... physical ping from Ciel's workshop. It was potent enough even for the young prodigy herself to feel it for a brief moment.

The real target, however, was someone else...

And it pinged again. This time, shifting a certain direction.

It was the Biometal.

And as the fluid makes contact, splashing onto and in between the cracks of the mechanical crustacean's optics, it sparks violently.

《 DAMAGE CRITICAL! 87% TOTAL DAMAGE! 》

And judging by the way it was moving, and the heat radiating off of it, that warning was warranted- it's gonna blow, and soon!

It received a taste of its own medicine swiftly, taking another hit to the opposite optic, rendering it practically blind... and while that helps the heroes, it doesn't help the mechanaloid, which is now frantically flailing its claws about as it stomps the ground!

《 64% TOTAL DAMAGE! 》

With a mighty crash, the mechanaloid lands atop Sword's shield, pushing the little star warrior into the ground... but not damaging them otherwise.

After placing one of its feet back on the ground, it starts trying to stomp through the shield, over, and over!!!

crush the quartet, if not at least send them flying from the impact!

All that damage accumulates, impacts stored in stasis until the moment of release- all hitting the lobster at once, resulting in its body being cratered into the ground.

《 OPTICS ERROR! MOTOR ERROR! 56% TOTAL DAMAGE! 》

But with a sudden plume of dirt, it catapults itself skyward, aiming to

He would have had to take cover, if not for the Kirbies! Their blow rendered the metal mass stunned, leaving it spasming on the ground as its systems rushed to recover!

Said nuisance was stunned from a strong blow, rendering it defenseless!

《MULTIPLE DIRECT HITS! 39% TOTAL DAMAGE! 》

《 CRITICAL HIT! 32% TOTAL DAMAGE! 》

The bot is stunned, stopping the revving of its engines as it collapses to the ground, spasming as its internal systems rush to recover from the attack.

Now's your chance!

Heavy rolled an 8. I think you good, unless you want her to get knocked out of the mech, lol.

《 DIRECT HIT! 10% TOTAL DAMAGE 》

The mechanaloid is sent reeling back from the impact, sending its beams skyward before dissipating. It takes a few staggering steps back, before lowering its body.

Its engines start revving.

3...

《 MINIMAL DAMAGE RECEIVED : 5% TOTAL DAMAGE 》

...but it did the job, not only uncoupling from the car it was attached to, but clearly denting that claw, making it useless for grabbing onto anything.

That didn't mean it wasn't dangerous, though- it swung said claw at Tron as she passed by!

《 INCOMING INTERFERENCE. UNCOUPLING. 》

The arm retracts from the train with a loud hiss, followed by the whip-like lashing of air before slamming back into place, claws clicking shut a few times before turning to the left group of Kirbies, activating its internal-claw flamethrowers.

Mun-ho, I've only just met your Kirby Quartet, and I think they're phenomenal already. /gen

As the lobster-droid kept trying to halt the train's advance toward base, the mechanaloid finally takes notice of the group attacking it, opening up one of its claws to fire off a massive energy beam, sweeping left to right to try and shake the hunters off!

《 MULTIPLE DIRECT HITS : 4% TOTAL DAMAGE 》

The mechanaloid slides to a halt, before firing off one of its claws like a grappling hook, forcing the train to begin screeching to a halt as it digs its feet and free claw into the earth below--

train, causing the Reploids up front to quickly realize the situation and start speeding back up toward the base...

It's picked up four more objects on its radar closing in. Likely interference, which it would, of course, obliterate without mercy.

It had to find that precious cargo. The signal had disappeared, but it was recent- recent enough to convince the mechanaloid to start ramming into the side of the

Tron pulls out her communicator to attempt alerting the fellow hunters.
“EVERYONE GET READY TO EVACUATE!!!
There’s some kind of shuttle closing in on you guys!!
It’s carrying something big!!”

(Heavy Lobster got tired of not showing up in Kirby stuff so it said fuck it going to jump n shoot land.)
