A wave emitted from the [Dual danger], so powerful it almost broke the speaker. It was a song, its melody encompassing a howling rage. Her voice transforms into not only a vocal lyric but also a guitar, drums, and bass sound.
All of this is not visible to the human eyes but a CPC chip of any mech could tell that there’s something wrong with the song. It’s not a bad melody, the raging sound of this music is called rock music.
“KILLL”
Sally's voice goes deeper, disrupting any projectiles thrown at her. The missile, kinetic bullets, and laser bullets all lose their power. The kinetic bullet falls off, the laser shoot dissipates into thin air. The mech pilots all stared in awe trying to make sense of this situation.
“THEEEE”
Sally's word goes with several instruments. This time her voice managed to stop more than a bullet. It also locks the pilot to her. Staring at her like the great performer she was. Daze to move even a muscle, blink and they will miss this moment.
The snake tail couldn’t keep her against the wall and Sally let out another cry.
“MECHHHHHH”
The verse and with a powerful bang of her voice. Breaks her own speaker in the process, but it works, the last verse dawns out a violent part of her performance, a desire to be heard, a desire to pilot a mech, and her dream of seeing that dusty sky.
All culminate into a powerful voice that wrecks anything it touches. The 2 mechs cracked and almost became a pile of rubbish. The mechup supper a mighty blow, all its composite layered armor shattered itself from the song. its metallic intestine shows itself for the world to see. An assortment of wires and electronics feel like a pack of snakes running through the body. Jay took a look inside with the building camera but he couldn’t figure it all out. designing a mechup is several times harder than a normal mech after all.
Sally wasn’t done yet. For the next part, she uses her last nanofix to refresh her speaker. Ready for another encore. The nanofix does its job and Sally performs the same song for another time.
Jay also got his cockpit camera restored, Sally sat there opening her mouth to sing in the most raging voice one could imagine. Jay could feel the anger flow through sally body and the mech.
Other mechs panic, this is out of their league. A max-out specialization is not to be trifled with. It takes years of refining, sweat, and tears to get it max out. getting in that state in the fight is unfair to any apprentice mech pilot. There was no way to fight back. The only thing left to do now is get out of here as soon as possible.
But Sally wouldn’t allow it, not when they shoot at her like this. It’s part of the game for sure, but her feelings are personal now. They need out.
Another round of singing later, the mech all lost their functionality, and 2 mechs that got caught in her singing voice broke down. Their wires got cut or burst out of order. Causing parts to stop working and some even explode from short circuits. The machine gun mech arm was no more and the assault rifle mech was annihilated by Sally's voice
So you could do this after all.
This even exceeded his expectations. She down one mech with only her voice alone. The destruction is not only lethal but unblockable even if they mute her voice, their mech will still be affected by the sound wave. The only way Jay could think of to counter this power is space.
The machine gun mech fell on the ground, its battery and wires were in a complete disaster, and the pilot is instructed to move out of the mech and fix the damn thing. Meanwhile, the assault rifle mech crashes and explodes next to the machine gun mech. Toppling the machine gun mech over, harder for the pilot to exit his mech.
The mechup isn’t faring any better, its big size only safe it from a complete system shutdown down but it is close to. The composite armor shatters on the ground one by one, like a snake shredding it old scale but this snake isn’t ready for that.
The Mechup pilot is not that rookie, he quickly injects a nanofix he got from stealing to get the scale back. But it is lacking. The nanofix is nowhere near enough to fix the damage that Sally has done. The whole middle part of the snake is gone, only wires and evaluable electronic exposure. Ready for Sally the snake hunter.
“DIEEEEE”
She charges forward freeing herself from the snake tale, aiming for the scaleless part of this giant monster. The chainsaw rumbles and slashes through the wire like a hot knife through butter, without its composite armor, the snake is but a mere meat on a chopping block. But a feisty one that fights back and still has a gigantic size.
The electronic grind against the rumbling chainsaw. Sparks flew all over the place making a light show out of this carnage. The chainsaw sank deeper and deeper into more of the snake's metal flesh. The mechup cockpit flashed red and the warning came all over, the screen showed the snake's body which is normally, blue in color—signifying its state. Now red and yellow filled the snake with the reader it got the more damage it’s taken. And the tail part is almost black. That means it’s unusable.

The mechup has recovered enough to make its move. The first thing it did was detect parts of its tail off before Sally could cause more damage. The head circles back to face Sally. Mouth open wide revealing a charged laser shot that would obliterate Sally.
She wouldn’t let that happen
“KILLLLL”
The whole metallic band waves over the area. It sounds aggressive and invasive, able to disrupt the charging process of the snake. Sally uses this time to pull her chainsaw out. Her hand switches to controlling the Laser gun, she charges up a shot and fires away aiming for the snake laser blaster.
The snake sees this coming from a mile away, it evades the shot as it zip passes the side of its mouth. Leaving a burnt metal in its wake. Sally continued her assault and flew over. her thruster was put to maximum use. She needs to finish this before her flow runs out.
Clocks ticking and Sally is cashing down the mech.
“THEEEE”
Her voice is louder than ever, trying to taunt mechup to a halt but it is no use. It’s already disabled the sound system, making the effect on the pilot minimal. However the whole mech is still in shambles, it is a matter of time before The snake ceases to exist.
“MECHHHHHH”
Another verse sung through determination shatters the mechup defense. The composite on the head could endure the first wave but no resistance to the second wave. What is left is a metallic wire and joints that control its movement. Sally switches her chainsaw to a submachine gun on her hip.
She used her foot that was nestled to control the mech legs to move the mech's left arm. It left her in an awkward position having her leg up so high. but This way she could control both arms at once. The laser gun fires along with a kinetic submachine gun. The laser shot pieces the outer shell of the electronic while the kinetic shot follows through ruining the inside. The Snake mechup shakes uncontrollably, and more red flashes inside the cockpit, the mechup has no choice but to abandon that part of the snake.
This only left a 1 third portion of the snake's body and its head. Sally reveals a bright smile and switches her target to the head of the snake. She aims to press her advantage and kill the Snake in one go.
The snake activates its thruster and flees from Sally, it pilot is frightened to death by the power display from [Dual dnagers]. It successfully gets out of the sound attack range but Sally follows closely and continues her assault. The submachine gun roared nonstop until it could only produce a click sound. A quick magazine change later and The snake couldn’t handle it anymore.
It turns around and charges up another shot. A blue laser appears in its’ agape mouth. Sally deactivated the blue light with her voice it chatted into many light sparkles however, that also broke her speaker in the process It’s a miracle to endure her aggressive song this far.
In the cockpit, Sally is still singing, wanting to kill the nake once and for all.
“Sally your speaker is broken”
“Shit!”
“The snake is no longer operational…”
Jay said looking through the mech camera. The snake was no longer in its glory, much of the body was ruined beyond repair, with bullet-poked holes everywhere. Its wiring and joints could be described as junk. However, upon a closer look, the snake could still operate, the pilot just chose to…
“Sally the pilot just abandoned the mechup!”
She reflectively thrust back but her bad posture could only activate her right leg thruster ending her spinning sideways. Luckily that was enough to dodge an incoming surprise. The projectiles flew past at a considerable speed not faster than a kinetic bullet. Sally caught a glimpse of it while she was spinning.
An explosive projectile, properly a bazooka or grenade launcher. Had Jay not warned her about it, the explosive would have damaged her mech beyond repair. The light blue canister dons with a silver line across itself flew past her. It collides with the wall causing a combustion to occur.
The study wall of the facility was built to support the facility crumbles. At that moment Jay and Sally both knew what was about to happen. The snake mech wasn’t only aiming for her! Had it missed it would directly hit the facility crumbling the ceiling on her.
“Get out!”
Jay who saw the situation called it out a bit faster than Sally's realization. A look of worry on his face as this might be what disqualify them. The Snake mechup or the mech that was piloted by someone seems to give up on their chance and try to take them both out.
“I know”
Sally acknowledges the situation and her mind faces the exit. Jay was one step ahead and highlighted it for her.
“Thank you!”
There is no more room for error, she places her left foot in its original position and charges for the exit. The ceiling visibly couldn’t handle the damage. This is not possible with the snake bazooka alone. This type of infostructure is built to last, if something ever happened the city above would be turned into dust.
Jay guessed that most of the crack must be from Sally singing and shouting her heart out. It only needs one little push for the whole structure to crumble down.
Sally flew across the room in less than 5 seconds but the crack spread fast, the weight of the city above could only wait to tumble down. Jay hoped that his help was enough, he highlighted the two doors that Sally could use to get out, they were situated at the left and right corners of the room opposite to each other.
To be safe, Jay checked both cameras to see if she would be out of danger when exiting. his hand moves to switch to a camera in the right chamber where Sally is heading. his vision was limited but Jay could see what was going on, the mech that she left to pursue the snake was still alive!
“Sally, there is still much remaining in the next room prepare for more combat!”
“TCH”
Sally bit her lips, it’s too late for her to leave through another exit. She has to pray that the mech left is utterly devesting or she would have a hard time dealing with it.
The room crumbles down along with a part of the town. Skyscraper roads and some metro stations are visible along with the floor ceiling.
