(King Eugene Roy): Arthur, you ready?

(Arthur Roy): A thousand times, YES! Just launch already!

(King Eugene Roy): THEN LAUNCH.


The underground bunker gives way, and the platform carrying the metallic soldier ascends, finally revealing the full mech in the wake of a downpour. The titanic automaton takes a few steps forward, nearly stumbling, but is soon steady and walking at a respectable place to the city of London under siege.


(King Eugene Roy): [COMMS] Hey, good job. Glad to see some whiny angsty teenager doesn't hold the fate of our home in his hands.

(Arthur Roy): Oh, sod-off, Gene.

(King Eugene Roy): [COMMS] I'm just saying! You never know when some bad monster wants to cause endless destruction and who you need to get as the back-up saviour of--

(Arthur Roy): Disconnect. Goddamn, I wish he'd shut up. Okay, back to fighting my first giant monster.


The soldier trudges forward, soon reaching visual range of the creature. The creature, noticing a disturbance, briefly ceases its rampant destruction to turn around; it sees a new challenger just a little ways away. The beast roars at its new target and charges, intent on taking down this new threat. The soldier looks on and readies his cannon, not firing just yet as he plants his traction pads into the ground from his feet. As the creature moves in, it grows faster in its charge; it's just a kilometre away when suddenly--


(Arthur Roy): EAT THIS YOU OVERGROWN LIZARD!!!


The soldier fires his cannon, and a tremendous shell races forward at unimaginable speed, impacting the beast straight in its chest and knocking it to the ground. The metal titan moves forward, aiming to seal the deal up-close-and-personal, when the creature groggily stumbles back to its feet. It pulls its head back a bit, then lets loose its sonic screech, shattering glass around the area and igniting several vehicles. When the attack impacts the soldier, he recoils, covering his face with his arms as the soundwaves begin causing small ruptures all over its hull; gas leaks out of these ruptures. The hull shows signs of collapse, but before the P.E.M.F. can finish the job, another tremendous shell bursts out of the shoulder cannon of the soldier, impacting the beast on its beak and causing the screaming to end, toppling it.

The metal colossus falls to one knee, having taken some heavy hull damage from the sonic assault.


(Arthur Roy): Dammit... that hit me harder than I thought. I better finish this quick.


The titan stands up again and walks over to the creature, whom is seemingly dazed from that last attack. As the soldier looks down upon it, the beast suddenly reopens its eyes and jumps up, biting down on the metal titan's right arm. The soldier tries to shake the beast off, sending barrages of missiles from its battery on its shoulder straight into its face and punching it repeatedly in its beak. The beast, though visibly hurt by these attacks, doesn't break its grasp, and the metal soldier's arm shows signs of near total collapse.


(Arthur Roy); Oh no you don't! I am NOT losing this hand, and I am most certainly not gonna lose it to your scaly bottom! FREEZE!


The soldier lets loose a stream of cryogenic coolant straight down the throat of the colossal creature, slowly causing its body to freeze up from the inside out until it becomes completely solid and unmoving. The metal colossus holds the beast with one hand and pulls its other out of the maw of the creature, shattering its face into millions of frozen pieces; this causes the rest to fall apart as well. Civilians start to come out of hiding; they cheer for their city's mechanical saviour.

(Researcher 1): Did you see that? Our scanners just picked up an energy surge from that part of the sea!

(Researcher 2): I saw. It seems to be somewhere off the coast of the Japanese origin island. This could be an important discovery!

(Researcher 1): Perhaps. However, after the debacle with the Japanese, we'll have to be extra careful not to ruffle any feathers this time.

(Researcher 1): Of course. So, which island from that cluster is it?

(Researcher 2): I believe...... Jiran Island.
