Cerberus
The sun was high in the sky by the time the Blitz Team’s Hover Cargo
reached their designated battlefield
The
sun was high in the sky by the time the Blitz Team’s Hover Cargo reached their
designated battlefield.
“Leon…ready
to mobilize the Blade Liger!” and he launched out of the hatch. The Gun Sniper was lifted up onto the pad.
“Leena…ready
to mobilize Gun Sniper!”
She
felt an uneasiness as she landed, and her hands were shaking slightly as she
gripped the controls. Leena cleared her
thoughts and remembered the kiss that Bit had given her before they’d mobilized
their zoids. He’d melted her heart
within a few seconds and told her to be careful; it had given her all the
strength she’d needed.
Meanwhile,
down on the maintenance deck, Bit was busy getting Liger Zero ready for battle.
“Liger…activating
the system…JAGER!”
At
his command, the electronic arms removed Liger’s armor and installed the
streaky, blue armor of the Jager. Bit’s
chair leaned back to give him additional support, and his zoid was lifted up to
the launching pad.
“Liger
Zero Jager…CAS complete!” Jamie confirmed over the loudspeaker.
“GO
JAGER!!!”
Bit
roared out onto the battlefield to join his teammates.
Ten
minutes passed by, and there was no sign of the Champ Team. Just then, a red Whale King appeared on the
horizon. It landed about two miles from
the Hover Cargo, and two zoids exited from the mouth. They were two Iron Kongs.
“Whoa,
hold on a minute, I see only two zoids,” Leena gasped.
Suddenly,
the judge satellite crashed into the ground. nbspnbsp;
“Battle
approved…battle approved…the Blitz Team versus the Champ Team. Battle mode 0999. READY…FIGHT!!!”
The
Iron Kongs charged straight at the Blitz Team.
“What’s
going on here? Aren’t there supposed to
be three zoids?” Bit asked rather confused.
“What’s
the matter, Bit, are you afraid?” Harry’s face popped up on their vidscreens.
“I’m
not afraid of anything, you bastard.”
“Ah
Leena…how wonderful to see you again.” She suddenly felt very noxious. “It’s
too bad that we were interrupted last time.”
“Shut-up!”
she screaat tat the top of her lungs, “You raped me, you arrogant son of a
bitch! I never want to see your face
again, do you hear me?”
By
now she was shaking – not in fear but in anger; rage was boiling in her veins.
“You
heard my sister, Harry, you’re not gonna lay one finger on her every again!”
Leon said fervently.
“Well…aren’t
we confident. Why don’t we make a wager
then? Whoever wins the battle has
rights to Leena?”
“I have
a better idea,” Bit interrupted with a wide smirk.
“If
it isn’t the hero himself?” Harry spat angrily. “What could you possibly offer
me?”
“Leave
Leena out of this battle; this is between you and me. Whoever loses this battle has to leave zoid battles…forever!”
Everyone
gasped at his statement.
“My…my…you’re
a brave man, Bit Cloud. You will never
defeat me!”
“What
do you say, you pompous jackass?” Harry growled at him through the screen.
“I
accept, Bit, but you better live up to the end of the bargain when you lose.”
“Let’s
dance!”
The
Iron Kongs charged towards the Blitz Team; their speed increasing as they
approached.
“Leon…you
there!”
“What
is it, Bit?”
“I
got an idea. Hey Leena, you up for some
target practice?” A smug smile crossed her lips.
“You
bet I am.”
“All
right, listen up, on my signal, I want you to fire a full barrage exactly one
hundred meters ahead of the Iron Kongs,” Bit began.
“Are
you crazy? I’ll completely miss them!”
she protested.
“That’s
right, but it’ll provide a smokescreen which is what I want. Leon, I’m going to take Liger straight
through them. Jager’s laser claw isn’t
strong enough to cut through their armor, but your laser blades are. I want you to follow me in. When I shoot in between them, they’ll turn
to follow my movements; that’ll give you a chance to slice them both at once.”
“That’s
ingenious, Bit!” Jamie said over the com.
“So,ere ere is a brain inside that head of yours,” Brad laughed. Bit glared at him but quickly returned his
mind to the battlefield.
“Okay…are
you both ready?”
“Ready,”
Leon and Leena answered.
“Let’s
do it!”
Liger
charged full-steam toward its opponents, and Leon followed closely behind. Within thirty seconds, the two were within
range of their targets.
“Get
ready, Leena…and fire!” Bit ordered.
“WEASEL
UNIT TOTAL ASSAULT!”
The
Gun Sniper unleashed its full barrage, and the shells landed exactly where they
were supposed. The explosion caused the
Iron Kongs to slow down, and Bit made hise. e. He gunned the Jager’s ion thrusters into full throttle and roared
into the smoke. Ten seconds later, Leon
followed him.
Bit
emerged from the cloud of smoke and zipped directly between the two beefy
zoids. Just as he’d predicted, they
turned to follow his movements; it was Leon’s turn now.
“BLADE
ATTACK!”
The
Blade Liger extended its blades, and its booster kicked into overdrive. The blades charged up with energy and
slashed through the sides of both Iron Kongs.
It took out the joint sockets at the top of the legs, and the heavy
zoids crashed to the ground.
Bit
and Leon brought their zoids to a halt and surveyed their work with satisfied
smiles.
“Scratch
two Iron Kongs,” Leon said firmly.
“That
was too easy,” Bit said worriedly. “Even Harry has more skill than that.”
“Ha…ha…ha…ha…ha…”
A loud cackled interrupted their conversation.
A
black Whale King appeared in the sky.
It had been under the guise of a stealth shield and was completely
invisible.
“That’s
Layon’s voice!” Leena gasped. Sure
enough, Layon appeared on their screens.
“Well
Tauros, it’s time to settle the score once and for all. You’re going to pay dearly.”
“Dammit
Layon, I don’t have time to mess around with you today,” Doc said angrily.
Suddenly,
the ground began to shake, and the Blitz Team had to steady themselves. About a half mile away, the earth exploded
upwards, and something emerged from underground.
“Now
Tauros, I give you my finest accomplishment…the Cerberus!”
As
the dust settled, you could see a massive zoid had emerged. It had three giant heads that looked very
much like Zabre Fangs and nasty looking claws.
It had to be at least ten times the size of any of the Blitz Team’s
zoids. There were twin laser guns
mounted on its back, and a triple-barrel cannon on its underbelly.
“What
in the world is that?” Leena gasped.
Harry’s face once again appeared on her screen.
“Leena,
my darling, how do you like my new zoid?”
“You’re
piloting it!” Bit interrupted.
“Of
course. Dr. Layon heard about my plight
to rescue my precious Leena from you.
She is mine and no one else’s!”
“Layon,
how could you help this bastard? Don’t
you realize what he did?” Leon said angrily.
“Layon!”
Doc broke in, his face taking up most of the view screen.
“I
don’t want to talk to you, Tauros.”
“Fine,
but you’re going to listen. You think
that Harry loves her…then why did he rape her!” he shouted.
Layon,
who had been eating a cup of noodles, spit it out onto his control panel.
“What
did you say?”
“Harry
raped her, you ignorant jerk!” Doc growled angrily. Layon’s face turned ghostly white.
“That’s
impossible; you’re lying!” He switched his communications to Harry’s channel.
“Explain
yourself at once!”
“Leena
is mine and has always been mine; I took her because she belongs to me.”
“You
lying son of a bitch. You told me that
Bit was the one who hurt her – not you.”
While
they were arguing, Jamie was busying retrieving the data disc from their
security cameras. He’d recently
discovered that the cameras had recorded what had happened on the night Leena
had been assaulted.
“Doc,
tell Layon you can prove Harry raped Leena,” he advised.
“Layon,
listen to me, Jamie is sending you a copy of our security footage; this is what
really happened to Leena.”
Dr.
Layon received the transmission in a matter of seconds, and his eyes widened in
horror. He could clearly see Harry
holding Leena to the ground, and she screaming ‘no…no…no’ over and over
again. Then someone screamed ‘take your
damn hands off her’. Bit tackled Harry
onto the ground, and Leena curled up into a ball.
“What
have I done?”
“Enough
talking, Bit, it’s time to settle this once and for all!”
“My
thoughts exactly, Harry.” Liger roared in agreement.
“You
don’t stand a chance against my Cerberus.”
“We’ll
see about that! Let’s get ‘em, Liger!”
Liger
Zero charged at the Cerberus at full speed, but the mighty zoid didn’t move.
“He’s
just sitting there,” Leon said confused.
“All
right, Liger, get ready…let’s take ‘em down.”
When
Liger Zero was about a quarter of a mile away, the Cerberus raised its laser
cannons and fired. Bit gunned his
thrusters to accelerate past them, but the turrets speed increased to match his
acceleration, and he was drilled head on by several laser blasts.
“Bit!”
Leena shouted as she saw him go down.
“You’re
gonna pay for that!” she growled.
The
Gun Sniper advanced on its enemy, and Leena fired everything she had at the
Cerberus. When the smoke cleared, an
energy shield had formed around the three-headed beast, and it was completely
unscathed.
“Dammit,
not even a scratch.”
“Hang
back a minute, Leena, this zoid’s no pushover,” Leon advised her.
Inside
Liger Zero, Bit shook the cobwebs and rubbed his head.
“Liger,
you okay?” His zoid growled slightly. “All right, let’s try aga again.”
“Look,
Bit’s back on his feet,” Leon said with relief in his voice.
“You
okay?” Leena asked worriedly.
“Yeah,
I’m fine – just a bad headache.”
“Guys,
listen to me, you need to attack it as one; it’s gonna take all your firepower
to beat it!” Jamie advised.
“He’s
right, everybody, this one’s gonna require a ‘team’ effort,” Leon added.
“All
right, I’ll act as a decoy and draw his attention,” Bit stated, “He wants me
the worst anyway.”
Liger
Zero began another charge at the Cerberus, and Bit continued to turn up his
throttle. Once again, the lasers were
fired as he accelerated, but at the last moment, he pushed his thrusters to
full power and roared past the explosion.
“Let’s
do it, Liger.” The claws on his zoid began to glow, and he leapt into the air.
“STRIKE
LASER CLAW!”
The
Cerberus brought its shield to ward his attack, but they weren’t finished yet.
“WEASEL
UNIT TOTAL ASSAULT!” Leena fired everything she had left and pummeled the
opposite side of the shield.
Bit
continued to press his claw against the shield and finally the energy broke
from the strain. He aimed dily aly at
the central head, but he was about to hit a serious obstacle. The two heads on the sides reached out and
wrapped their jaws around Liger Zero.
The zoid roared as the fangs penetrated the Jager’s armor.
“Let
him go!” Leena shouted in horror.
Leon
charged forward and extended his blades.
The Bladger ger rammed into the side of the Cerberus, and its left blade
collided with the left leg joint of the Cerberus. The collision forced it to release Liger Zero, and Bit managed to
jump away from any further attack.
However, the left blade on Leon’s zoid had been severed by the Cerberus’
armor and now lay useless on the ground.
“I
don’t believe it; I can’t cut through that thing!”
“Nothing
can cut through it,” a familiar voice interrupted.
“Layon…is
that you?” Leena inquired.
“Yes,
and I’m so sorry about this. I thought
I was helping you, but instead, I’ve condemned you instead. I made my Cerberus to be more powerful than
any of the Liger’s armors; laser blades and cannon blasts won’t scratch
it. There’s nothing you can do to
defeat it; it has no weaknesses.”
“I
have a feeling he’s right,” Leon gulped.
“C’mon,
you guys,” Bit interrupted, “We’re not out of this yet.”
Liger
Zero was in bad shape. One of its
boosters had been badly damaged and was completely inoperable. There was no way for Jager to reach its top
speed.
“Liger…talk
to me, I need you, partner!” Bit pleaded, “We can’t lose this battle.” He could
hear his zoid respond to him.
“Are
you sure, pal? Will it really work?”
Liger growled in confirmation. “All right, I believe you; let’s do it.”
Bit
turned around and headed back to the Hover Cargo.
“Leon…buy
me two minutes!”
“But
Bit…you heard Layon; the Cerberus is designed to defeat every one of Liger
Zero’s armor units,” Jamie reminded him.
The blonde-haired pilot merely ignored him.
“If
you say so, Bit.”
Inside
the Cerberus, Harry Champ was laughing as he saw Bit retreating towards the
Hover Cargo.
“Look
at that coward run!” he nearly cackled.
On either side of him, Benjamin and Sebastian gazed worriedly at each
other.
“Harry,
we should stop this now.”
“Never! I won’t stop until Bit is destroyed, and
Leena is mine!”
“But
Harry, we can’t kill him!” Benjamin advised.
“Just
watch me!” the pompous young man hissed.
‘That’s
right, Bit Cloud, do what you want, but your fate is still going to be the
same.’
The
Blade Liger launched another attack against the Cerberus, but as Leon leapt
into the air, its cannon fired and knocked him head over heels back onto the
ground.
“That’s
take care of you,” Harry said triumphantly.
“Now
Leena, we’re all alone…” His eyes trained on the Hover Cargo, “…but first let
me get rid of those meddlers.”
The
Cerberus opened all three of its mouths, and each extended a long, slender
barrel.
“Oh
no, don’t tell me those are…” Leena gulped.
The
ends of the barrels began to glow, and she knew what they were – charged
particle cannons.

designated battlefield.
