Pluvia: AAARRRGH!!!

  Charging Towards the Queen, Pluvia let loose a mighty war cry. Quickly crossing the distance to the Queen, Pluvia pounced. Slashing out with her claws, she aimed for the Queen's beady eyes. As she was expecting the Queen to once again dodge her attacks, Pluvia let her guard down. But To her surprise, the Queen stood her ground. Taking a threatening step forwards, she screeched at Pluvia

  Queen: GREEEEEE!!!

  Using her disfigured claw, she slashed at Pluvia. As the half destroyed arm shakily sliced through the air, a torrent of anger surfaced in the Queen's heart. Having been reduced to such a state by her enemies made her feel absolutely humiliated. Unfortunately, as it was her only way to fight, she just had to bear with it. But even in such a state, her attack was by no means weak. No matter how damaged her claw had become, it was still an extremely deadly weapon. So when Pluvia saw the razor sharp edge approaching her, she didn't underestimate it. Reinforcing her own claws with Qi, Pluvia took the Queen's attack head on.

  Claws: BOOOOM!

  As their deadly claws met, a booming sound filled the air. As their powers clashed, trying to destroy each other, the air began to quiver.

  Claws: SHRRRKKKKK!!

  As their attacks began to weaken, the two claws started scraping against each other. Letting an ear-piercing scrapping sound, each of the claws tried to cut into the other one. But as time went on, it became increasingly obvious that both sides were evenly matched.

  Pluvia: Agh!

  Looking up at the Queen, Pluvia was surprised to see her remaining completely still. Even when contending against Pluvia's considerable strength, she didn't seem affected. But that wasn't the most worrying part. A moment ago when their claws first met, the Queen had been standing perfectly. But Pluvia was charging at almost 40 MPH, So she had expected the Queen to at least take a few steps back. As she was still thinking about that, the Queen had begun to move. Drawing her claw away from Pluvia's, she turned slightly to the side. Then slamming her shoulder into Pluvia, she used her whole weight to push forwards. Caught by surprise, Pluvia was pushed back several dozen meters. But quickly recovering, she dug her Claws into the floor beneath her. Leaving deep grooves on the cave floor, she soon brought the Queen's mad charge to a halt. taking advantage of the Queen's surprise, Pluvia pushed back towards her. Using all of her strength, she forced the Queen to take a step back. But because the Queen was still pressing forwards with all of her weight, Pluvia couldn't push her any further. Staying in place, the two of them pressed their whole body weight into each other. As they did, long spider web like cracks started developing on the floor below them. Looking at such a scene, it seemed like they were evenly matched. But as time went on, it became clear that wasn't the case. Pluvia had begun shaking underneath the Queen's pressure. After a few seconds, she could feel herself losing grip on the ground. Realising that she wouldn't be able to win in this contest of strength, Pluvia chose to back away. Using the current situation to her advantage, Pluvia stopped resisting the Queen's push. When she did, all of the built up tension in their bodies was transferred to her. Jumping a few inches off of the ground, she let that built up momentum fling her several dozen meters away. Spiralling through the air, Pluvia quickly put a large distance between herself and the Queen. Spreading out her wings, Pluvia steadied her body. Then gently gliding back down to the ground, she landed on her feet.

  Solomon: Are you alright?

  From behind herself, Pluvia heard the concerned voice of Solomon. Having seen Pluvia get flung away by the Queen, he was worried that she'd been injured. From his perspective, it was impossible to tell that she'd purposely let herself be thrown. To him, it looked like she had tried to directly confront the Queen directly and had lost badly.

  Pluvia: Yeah, I'm fine. But we've got an issue.

  Glancing over at Solomon, she sent him a comforting smile. Seeing the heartfelt concern plastered all over his face, she could tell that he was Genuinely worried about her.

  Solomon: What is it?

  Hearing Pluvia, Solomon started panicking. Though she'd said she was fine, her actions weren't matching up with her words. If she really wasn't injured, why would they have a problem? Having spectated up until now, Solomon knew that she was barely able to hold up against the Queen. Even with her insane level of strength, she was barely able to protect her own life. So if Solomon had to take on the Queen by himself, he'd die in a few minutes. Thinking about that possibility, Solomon felt a sliver of fear grow inside his heart. looking over at Pluvia, he anxiously awaited her answer to his Question.

  Pluvia: I'm running out of Qi.

  Hearing Pluvia's explanation, Solomon felt the fear in his heart disappear. But not long after, another fear took its place. If she ran out of Qi, Pluvia would completely lose her ability to fight. Without her Qi to improve her strength, Pluvia's power would easily be cut in half. With such a decrease in her strength, Pluvia wouldn't be able to take on the Queen anymore.

  Solomon: Should I give you some of mine?

  Considering Solomon's offer, Pluvia took stock of her energy pool. She had around a third of her total Qi left. But with the way she was fighting, That third wouldn't go very far.

  Pluvia: No, it wouldn't be worth it. Even if it was, do you think the Queen would just sit there and let it happen?

  Having thought about Solomon's offer, Pluvia decided to reject him. Putting aside how difficult it would be for them to exchange Qi While the Queen was looming over. It wouldn't be able to change their current situation. All it would do is allow Pluvia to delay the Queen's victory for a little while longer. Though they could try to use Solomon's Qi to outlast the Queen, it would cost a huge amount of energy and time. So afterwards, they would not only have to face all of their enemies with a limited amount of Qi, but they'd also have to rush to escape the city. In the end, it wouldn't be worth it.

  Solomon: what are we gonna do then? If you run out of Qi then we'll both be at the Queen's mercy anyway. Isn't it worth it to take the risk?

  Looking over at the Queen, Solomon saw her beady eyes darting back and forth between the two of them. Her whole body was tensed up, ready to react at any second. Starring at the two of them, she seemed like an agent of death. Seeing her demonic figure, Solomon knew that she wouldn't let them share their energy. But if they didn't do so, then Pluvia's reserves would soon run dry. Thinking about their situation, Solomon knew they were stuck between a rock and a hard place. Looking back over at Pluvia, he waited for her response. But after a few seconds of silence, his nerves got the better of him.

  Solomon: Pluvia?!

  Running through their options in her head, Pluvia couldn't come up with anything. Having already revealed all of their trump cards, they didn't have anything they could use against the Queen. Both Pluvia's flame breath and Solomon's flame serpent art had been revealed, So it would be impossible to easily hit the Queen with them. After hesitating for a few moments, Pluvia decided to take drastic measures.

  Pluvia: I didn't want to do this, but I guess there's no choice at this point. Solomon, I'll get you the opening you need to kill her. When I do, take this bitch out!

  Hearing Pluvia's words, Solomon felt a sinking feeling in his gut. He knew that whatever she planned to do wouldn't be good for herself. But just as he was about to voice his disagreement, he caught sight of her face. With a deep fire burning in her eyes, Pluvia looked over at the Queen. Her hardened expression didn't carry an ounce of fear in it as she stared down her enemy. Clearly seeing her determination, Solomon swallowed his words. In the face of such a strong determination, he couldn't do anything but nod his head in agreement.

  Solomon: Okay, let's do it.

  Looking into the Queen's soulless eyes, Pluvia confirmed the decision in her heart. Starting off at a slow pace, she began approaching the Queen. Seeing the sudden change in behaviour, the Queen became cautious. Having been tricked several times already, she was determined not to let it happen again. Focusing intently on Pluvia, she waited patiently for her to take action. But as she continued to observe, Pluvia's actions didn't change. She just kept on walking towards her at the same unsettlingly slow pace. As if she didn't have a single worry in the whole world. Watching the distance to between herself and Pluvia Quickly Shorten, the Queen began to lose her cool. Eventually, when she couldn't take it anymore, The Queen pounced. Once again relying on her astonishing speed, the Queen dashed towards Pluvia. Arriving at Pluvia's side in a fraction of a second, she lashed out with her deformed claw. As she watched the deadly blade approach Pluvia's neck, the Queen felt the anxiousness in her heart grow even worse. For some reason, she couldn't shake the feeling that something bad was about to happen.

  Pluvia: RAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!

  Just as the Queen's blade was about to cut into her exposed neck, Pluvia let out an ear-splitting roar. Stimulating the monster's core within her body, Pluvia emptied her all of her remaining Qi into her muscles. Reacting to the sudden rush of energy, her muscles began to visibly swell. Growing to almost 1.5x their normal size, they made Pluvia's already sizable form instantly take a step up. Growing from the size of a large horse to a small truck, Pluvia now truly looked like a dragon. Spinning around to face the Queen, Pluvia's felt the surging power in her body. Feeling the changes, she could tell that her power had at least tripled. Feeling confident in herself, Pluvia looked at the approaching claw with disdain.

  Pluvia: HUMPH!!!

  Reaching out with her pearly white claws, Pluvia slashed down at the Queen's elbow. Having been caught completely off-guard by Pluvia's sudden transformation, the Queen didn't even make an attempt to protect herself.

  Queen: SCREEEEE!!!

  As Pluvia's claws dug into her arm, the Queen let out a sorrowful screech. As she pushed down with her claws, they gouged deep into the Queen's spindly arm. But even under the huge empowerment of Qi, she couldn't cut the Queen's arm completely off. Feeling the heart-wrenching Pain coming from her impaled arm, the Queen desperately tried to pull it away. However, Pluvia was one step ahead of her. Before she had a chance to reclaim her arm, Pluvia roughly pulled her forwards. Using her grip on the Queen's arm, Pluvia easily dragged her lumbering body a few meters forwards. Then with a slash of her other claw, Pluvia cut into the Queen's legs. With a sickening crunch, she cut off 3 of the Queen's 8 legs. Unlike her claws that were heavily armoured, the legs were extremely thin. As they focused on speed, they couldn't be weighed down by a lot of armour. So under the assault of Pluvia's empowered claw, they snapped like twigs. Losing almost half of her support, the Queen collapsed to the floor. Feeling the pain coming from her severed limbs, she squealed like a dying pig. Even the highly tolerant Queen couldn't ignore the loss of several limbs.

  Pluvia: NOW!!!!!

  Using the Queen's capsized body as a springboard, Pluvia catapulted herself towards Solomon. Signalling for him to attack, she used her wings fly away from the Queen's squirming body. She knew that even with her enhanced body, she wouldn't survive a close call with Solomon's high powered attacks.

  Hearing Pluvia, Solomon quickly reacted. Having been prepared the whole time, it didn't take him long to perform the flame serpent art. Holding the arcane orb in his hand, Solomon pooled the remaining half of his Qi into it. Holding his arms towards the Queen's struggling figure, he let the flaming lizard for around his arms. Looking at his target, Solomon felt his blood boiling. Just as the lizard had fully formed, Solomon sent it flying.

  Solomon: FLAME SERPENT ARTTTT!!!

  Plasma mine

  Unranked equipment

  150 point cost

  From the fallout universe. A small mine filled with plasma energy. Upon being set down, the mine is proximity-activated. Once it's activated the top of the mine will fly off. At that point green energy will come flying out of the mine and explode outwards. Specialised for use against energy based organisms.

  this is a leftover item I wrote up when I looked at Fallout. it's standard mine but as it uses plasma it's effective against energy. other than that, it's not especially powerful. But as it's cheap you could easily buy a bunch of them to use against weaker enemies. or if you know your mission is to defend somewhere these wouldn't be a bad choice for that.

  Shield Liger

  F rank mech

  50000 point cost

  From the Zoids universe. A long outdated model of a lion type Zoid. This Zoid is equipped with a huge arsenal of weaponry. It has all of the weaponry as Van Flyhieghts Shield Liger. That includes two laser sabres, one strike claw, two pop out type missile pods, one anti Zoid 3 barrel shock cannon, one AMD double-barrelled 20mm beam cannon and one anti Zoid 30mm double barrelled beam gun. This unit is also equipped with an E-shield generator. This unit is specialised for close combat, relying heavily on its generator to approach its enemies. Suitable for fast paced close quarter combat.

  this is one of the ligers I found when researching Zoids. to my understanding, it's the first iteration of the main character's mech. it's extremely focused towards speed and mobility, making it great for close combat. due to its high level of power and it's size I had to put it at F rank. though I really wanted to downgrade it to G so it could appear soon, it wasn't something I could force myself do. to put it simply it's too damn powerfull. But as it is now, I'm sure Zoids will make a somewhat prominent appearance in the midst o near future. I hope you all eagerly await that. But summing up my thought on this, it's a speed based close combat mech that works on all terrains. it's very versatile and doesn't lack in the power department.

  Geno Saurer

  F rank mech

  50000 point cost

  From the Zoids universe, a long outdated model of a tyrannosaurus-type Zoid. This Zoid is equipped with a large arsenal of weaponry. That includes one set of Hyper Killer Fangs, two Hyper Killer Claws, two Hyper Strike Claws, one Laser Gun, two Long Range Pulse Laser Rifles, one Charged Particle Cannon and two footlocks. This Zoid is also equipped with the organoid system, increasing its intelligence and abilities. Due to its versatile weaponry, this unit is both good at ranged and close combat. But due to it's charged particle cannon, this unit usually prefers ranged combat. Suitable for all types of combat.

  this is the rival of the shield liger. it's a range based beast that deals a shit tonne of damage. personally, I like it better than the liger as it's much more destructive but in exchange, it's a lot slower and less manoeuvrable. it's very good at destroying large targets and for that, i think it is extremely cool. especially the huge cannon it uses. the power behind it then is easily enough to rival the average F rank. So just as a standalone unit, it packs a huge punch. comparing it to the liger it's a battle between speed and power. a battle it appears to lose too often in the anime. But either way, this is an extremely cool Zoid.
