In the Room
In the quiet room, Scarlett sat by the window when a knock echoed. "Come in," she called out. It was Ashfield.
"Ashfield... what does your father intend to do with my mother?" Scarlett's worry etched in her voice.
Approaching her, Ashfield explained, "My father has chosen to wage war against your mother... and he desires me to marry you, Scarlett."
Stunned into silence, Scarlett listened as Ashfield continued, "However, I've met with your mother. She's strategizing and collaborating with Silver Prism to secure your rescue."
"Silver Prism? You mean Joseph is involved too?" Scarlett's surprise was evident.
"Yes, I've confided in them about my father's intentions... I'm sorry I couldn't stop him. I'm hoping they can prevent this," Ashfield confessed with a heavy heart.
In a moment of silence, Scarlett took a deep breath before speaking softly, "It's alright, Ashfield... You've done what you could."
"I'll do everything I can to support them against my father," Ashfield vowed earnestly. "When Joseph arrives to rescue you... I'll confront my father," he declared, then quietly left the room.
Ashfield walking in the corridor, lost in his thoughts, haunted by the words of the White King echoing in his mind. He murmured " Father... do i have to kill you.."
tension thickened as the group prepared for the looming conflict. In the hangar bay, Eliza's voice reverberated over their communication channels, resolute yet tinged with concern. 'GENESIS, Hell Brothers, our primary objective remains the rescue of Princess Scarlett,' her voice echoed. 'The Crimson Queen herself leads the Crimson Knight mech unit to provide cover. But be cautious. We're unaware of the Azure King's strategies.'
As Joseph, William, Asher, and Felix arrived at the battlefield, they were taken aback by the sheer scale of the opposition. A multitude of ships and mechs lay in wait, presenting a daunting sight. Among them stood the formidable EMERALD PHANTOM and Tezcatlipoca, their presence adding a level of intensity to the unfolding conflict.
Asher's expression darkened as he assessed the formidable scene before them. "Tskk, looks like we've got more on our plate than expected," he muttered, a hint of frustration in his voice.
Asher's voice cut through the tension, his resolve unwavering. "Joseph, leave these big shots to us. You focus on getting Scarlett out of here."
"Understood," Joseph replied sharply. As GENESIS moved forward, Tezcatlipoca launched a flurry of missiles toward the agile mech. GENESIS narrowly evaded the onslaught, dancing through the air with swift maneuvers.
"Who said you could and take her?" Klaus's voice boomed through the intercom from inside Tezcatlipoca.
"Shit... looks like we had to fight them" said William
The battlefield crackled with anticipation as the Crimson Queen's Elite mech unit, the Crimson Knights, clashed fiercely against the Azure King's formidable troops. The sky was a canvas of chaos, painted with streaks of laser fire and the resounding echoes of clashing metal.
Led by the resolute Crimson Queen herself, the Crimson Knights charged into the fray with precision and unwavering determination. Each Knight piloted their mech with expertise.
The Azure King's troops, fierce and relentless, met the Crimson Knights head-on. Their mechs were larger, imposing in their presence, and armed to the teeth. The battlefield became a chaotic, with explosions lighting up the sky and the ground shaking from the impact of each confrontation.
The clash between the Crimson Queen's elite forces and the Azure King's troops was a breathtaking display of skill, strategy, and unyielding determination. The outcome of this high-stakes confrontation would reverberate through the annals of their ongoing conflict, marking a pivotal moment in the ongoing struggle for dominance between the two factions.
In a hushed tone, William's voice reverberated through Joseph's cockpit. "GENESIS, here's the plan: BEOWULF's got your back against EMERALD PHANTOM. Once you get the chance, push forward toward the Azure King's palace and rescue Scarlett."
Joseph acknowledged with determination, "Understood."
As the Hell Brothers initiated their offensive against Tezcatlipoca, both mechs unleashed their newly deployed plasma blades, aiming directly at the formidable opponent. The searing blades sliced through the air, aimed to dismantle Tezcatlipoca's defenses. However, Klaus was quick to respond, erecting a barrier of energy to deflect the incoming assault.
"You think that'll scratch me?" Klaus taunted, his voice laced with arrogance.
As GENESIS moved confidently forward, closing the distance between itself and EMERALD PHANTOM, Lucil sneered through the intercom, "You're starting to move, but you're as predictable as ever." EMERALD PHANTOM swiftly maneuvered, attempting to outflank GENESIS, only to find BEOWULF suddenly deactivating its invisibility cloak. Standing poised behind EMERALD PHANTOM, BEOWULF prepared to launch an attack, extending its razor-sharp claws in a swift motion.
However, EMERALD PHANTOM anticipated the strike, evading BEOWULF's claws with a deft sidestep. The air crackled with tension as the two mechs engaged in a high-speed movement, the grace and precision of their movements akin to a deadly.
Klaus, oozing with pride, decided to enlighten his adversaries, "Ever wondered why the Azure King created Tezcatlipoca?"
"Huh? What's he talking about?" Asher and Felix exchanged surprised glances, but before they could react, Tezcatlipoca morphed, sprouting additional menacing arms, culminating in a colossal polearm.
"Killer Machine," Klaus's voice shifted from boastful to chillingly serious, as Tezcatlipoca charged ferociously toward Felix's mech.
"Felix!" Asher's cry filled with urgency echoed through the chaos. In a split second, Tezcatlipoca struck Felix's mech, sending it hurtling into the air, only to follow up with a devastating onslaught. The deadly mech, wielding its polearm, launched an onslaught of missiles at Felix's airborne machine.
Amidst the chaos of exploding missiles, a massive explosion reverberated across the battlefield. In a moment of astounding revelation, GENESIS tapped into its latent potential, created protective barriel as blocking Felix from those missile.
"GENESIS..." Asher murmured in disbelief, watching the spectacular display of the mech's capabilities.
Joseph's voice cut through the chaos with determination, "I've noticed something while tangling with EMERALD PHANTOM. Change of plans—I'll back you up against Tezcatlipoca, Hell Brothers."
Klaus's taunting voice echoed over the comms, "Ah, GENESIS revealing its hand so soon? Hah! It won't matter in the end; your end is inevitable."
In a sudden surge of power, EMERALD PHANTOM transitioned into its ominous "Cruel Stalker" mode, hurtling towards GENESIS with frightening speed. GENESIS swiftly raised its sword, intercepting the vicious charge, sparks flying as the clash reverberated through the battlefield. Sensing the urgency, BEOWULF and Raijin surged into action, speeding toward the fray to aid GENESIS in its struggle against the relentless adversary.
But their efforts were swiftly countered as Klaus's call summoned an encircling wave of Azure King's mech troops, trapping them in a tight formation. Asher's voice echoed with frustration amidst the chaos, "Damn it! We're in deep trouble now!"
Observing the escalating chaos, Eliza intervened through the communication channels, her voice calm yet charged with urgency, "GENESIS, the situation's gone awry. Give it your all out there—ensure everyone's safety."
"Roger that," Joseph responded resolutely, aligning his strategy. "Felix and I will handle Lucil and Klaus. We'll give it our best shot."
As Tezcatlipoca charged forward, its movements mirroring the raw power and speed of a raging rhinoceros, it bore down on GENESIS and Fujin with a deadly intent. Its multi-legged form surged forward, arms poised to strike.
Amidst the chaos, BEOWULF and Raijin battled fiercely against the Azure King's mech troops, striving to tip the scales in their favor. Felix's voice cut through the turmoil, a plan forming in the midst of the clash, "GENESIS, brace for the assault. I'll draw its attention and wait for the perfect moment to strike."
As Tezcatlipoca and EMERALD PHANTOM lunged forward, their devastating attacks seemed destined for success. Klaus, with absolute confidence, proclaimed, "Rest in peace, GENESIS," believing their victory to be imminent. In a split-second collision, Tezcatlipoca's polearm struck GENESIS head-on, while EMERALD PHANTOM's claws viciously pierced Fujin's armor.
Amidst the chaos and apparent defeat, Klaus and Lucil celebrated prematurely, convinced they had eliminated GENESIS and Fujin. But the battlefield held a surprise. The apparent demise was an illusion—a cunning trick executed by Fujin. In a sudden turn, the seemingly defeated mechs retaliated with swift and forceful strikes, catching their adversaries off guard.
Surprise rippled through the battlefield as William's voice echoed over the commotion, "What? They're still standing? I thought you'd both met your end... Well, that's a relief."
Felix swiftly explained, "Fujin's ability, thanks to Luther, creating Fujin ability a mist that created the illusion of our defeat."
Luther, acknowledging Felix's use of Fujin's abilities, commended, "Impressive work utilizing Fujin's capabilities. Well done."
Asher chimed in with praise, "Great job, Felix," as the combined efforts of BEOWULF and Raijin efficiently dispatched the remaining Azure King mech troops. The unexpected turn of events showcased the strategic cunning and teamwork of the pilots, turning what seemed like certain defeat into a startling and impressive counterattack.
With determination in his voice, Asher exclaimed, "Now's my moment to shine!" Raijin soared into the air, its plasma blade igniting with intense energy. As it descended, a powerful shockwave emanated from the strike, targeting EMERALD PHANTOM and Tezcatlipoca, causing a critical system shutdown in both mechs.
"Quick, everyone! Remember, our primary objective is to rescue the Crimson Queen's daughter!" Asher urged, seizing the opportune moment amidst the chaos.
As the team advanced towards Scarlett's rescue, a massive pillar came crashing down, obstructing their path. Joseph's voice faltered, "This is..."
Luther's voice cut in, filled with concern, "Oh no... It couldn't be... He's here..."
The colossal mech, the Azure Star, representing the Azure King himself, emerged on the battlefield, casting an ominous shadow over everyone. "So, GENESIS, you've finally shown up. Never did I imagine you'd join forces with the Crimson Queen," taunted the Azure King, his presence sending shivers through everyone.
With a commanding gesture, the Azure Star unleashed a shockwave, causing GENESIS, BEOWULF, and the Hell Brothers to suffer system shutdowns, halting their movements abruptly. William frantically attempted to reactivate BEOWULF, hitting random buttons in a desperate attempt, but to no avail. "Fuck!" he cursed in frustration.
Just as hope seemed lost, EMERALD PHANTOM, recovering from the shutdown, surged toward GENESIS with malicious glee, taunting, "Hahahah! Any last words, GENESIS?" As EMERALD PHANTOM lunged forward, aiming to strike GENESIS, the unexpected happened—GENESIS intercepted the attack, gripping EMERALD PHANTOM's hand.
Lucil, taken aback by the sudden turn of events, exclaimed in shock, "What? I thought GENESIS was down!"
"Ahhh, Joseph, it seems your own body needs attention," Joseph's voice echoed, but it bore an uncanny difference.
Eliza interjected, her voice laced with confusion, "Who are you?"
"We'll discuss that later," the voice replied, revealing that GENESIS had taken control of Joseph's body, surprising everyone with its unforeseen event.
"Now Joseph, let me show, what it's like to pilot a mech," declared GENESIS through Joseph's voice.
