The first round between the Felixia Catstrikers and Zeigra ended abruptly after the latter's departure.
Some of the Catstrikers privately felt relieved as the worst case scenario hadn't occurred.
When the humanoid mechs of the Catstrikers managed to surround the Crown Cat, they inflicted a considerable amount of damage, weakening the structural integrity of Zeigra's resilient fur by an uncertain degree.
This probably led the huge cat to conclude that it was in his best interest to depart.
As a precaution, most of the mechs still remained on guard in case Zeigra wanted to start with the second round right away, but for all intents and purposes the battle was over.
The legged transports moved into the clearing and poured out a host of mech technicians and equipment in order to perform emergency repairs on the mechs that suffered serious damage.
