Chapter 31: Ambushed! part 2/3

"I choose to turn you all into junkyard collectibles. I feel confident I can win this fight." I answer as the droids warm their engines up, and I warm mine, too.

"I see you've chosen the hard way; fine then!" Titan says as he raises his machine gun to point it at me, but the mercenary quickly halts him.

"You stand back. We got this. You're the last one to act today, big guy." The mercenary then takes the stage and points his guns toward me. Geez, whoever controlled these machines sure loved drama. Can we just start it already? No? Fine, I'll be dramatic, too!

"I'm the bad girl here, am I? FINE! If humanity wants me to be the villain so badly, so be it! Bring it on, you losers! I'll walk over all of you one by one! I swear!" I screamed after jumping on top of a gigantic boulder nearby, gaining the high ground to make my statement even more "dramatic."

"Yo, shut yo ass up!" The mercenary answers my taunt with bullets shooting multiple times at me, forcing me to jump away toward a tree, where I quickly calculate a line of attack against him. I would take him down first!

"You're first!" Once I get a solid foothold on the tree, I push on it to launch myself directly at the shooter, but the piercer intercepts me in mid-air. I had to overclock my system to dodge the raging spear, barely getting away with a minor Scratch, but then, when I thought I had landed safely...

{Projectile noises rushing toward A52}

Ugh! I still had a couple of milliseconds left on the overclock mode, which allowed me to barely dodge hundreds of small knives thrown at me by the spammer. Once my overclock is out, I'm still in trouble as the grappler shoots his chains against me right after I just managed to safely land the previous attack; give me a damn break!

Luckily, his aim was awful, so he didn't land one on me, but one very loud falling noise soon alerted me to jump back, and I did, simply following a hunch. I accidentally dodged a gigant rock thrown at me, now feet away, but that's not it. Just when I think I can breathe, another one comes at me.

The Swordsman attacks me from behind when I'm not looking. I barely noticed the bastard, but I had enough time to at least somewhat deflect his sword with my arm, yet it was a distraction, or perhaps I was too slow because not even a second later, I heard a shot.

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

The mercenary managed to land one on me when my back was turned against him. The bastard got my left leg good, but I can still move it. Yet their formation is such a jump that not even when I'm already hit do they slow down. Next, the piercer launches another attack, which also bruises my abdomen; this isn't looking good for me.

Naturally, I followed up with the next best line of attack: running away. When I did, the tank blocked my path with a giant dome force field, which prevented me from running very far. I can't even fully process what is happening when I'm injured again by one of the spammers' knives.

Next, the thrower runs up to me, and out of nowhere, he charges his massive right arm against me; it takes me so much by surprise. All I can do to protect myself is form an arm x, which takes the impact. The force behind the hit does send me back, flying across the field until I stop when I crash against a tree.

[At mid-range, the grappler and the thrower have you pinned. Whenever you try to run away or dodge the mercenary, the spammer gets you pinned.]

My system explains that when the grappler and the thrower combo against me, their combo usually ends with me being thrown away against the tanker's barrier. Where I'm then attacked by the mercenary and the spammer with their long-range weapons.

Their combos put so much against me that the spammer eventually lands a few of his sharp knives on my back, happily celebrating that it hit me. I had to get rid of the shielder, so I turned against him to try and face him, but I forgot the "boxing" part, as he wisely dodged my attacks by falling back every time. Dang it!

Not long after I'm prevented from taking on their tank, the group finally stops for a minute as they wish to say something to me or whatever. I take on the offer as a way to reposition myself instead of the strange stance I had left from the first impacts.

"This is your last chance to surrender 52!" Titan screams at me while I try to recoup my balance after being extremely bruised by the machine's merciless combos.

"Why would I surrender? When death is what you want for me? I don't want to die yet." I respond, and pretty quickly, a voice speaks from one of the machines, from the tanker, to be precise.

"Surrender and die peacefully 52. I can guarantee a quick and painless death if you stop." Alexander's voice was the one speaking to me, but I refused! Why would I surrender? Why would I commit suicide when I haven't completed my purpose!

"Fuck you! Fuck all of you! I'll make it out of this and walk over each and every one of you! You have given me a purpose!" The regulators did not like my comments as the combos resumed after my last sentence, sealing my fate in their eyes, but who cared what they wanted!

Raphael! Do you have some more of that overclock mode? [Yes] Good. Warm my fist propulsors up. We will use their movements against them! At the next rotation, do not dodge the guy's chains. Let them think they have us! [Understood]
