Welcome to Gaia! ::

Orion grinned beneath his helmet. This was going to be a good fight. He'd already defeated his other teammate, Lauren, twice, but he had yet to test his mettle against Eli. Since the navy-haired girl was going to be leading the team, it seemed logical that he test the limits of her abilities as a pilot.

The Hybrid Liger took off like a shot from the get-go, accelerating to the highest possible speed, then cutting back to a slower pace when he got within 100 meters of the Breaker, Orion snapping out the Liger's blades and juking and weaving during his approach, both to confuse Eli and avoid any possible weapons fire. Once in melee range, he charged the blades and strafed to the Breaker's left, aiming his left-side blade at the knee joint.

The Hybrid Liger strafed the Crystal Breaker at its top speed of 307 km/h, blades extended. When the Breaker reacted, it was only able to get a slight angle on the strafe, however that slight angle was just enough to avoid all major damage. The left blade made contact with the shield, bouncing off like a bug on windshiled. The extra momentum with the force of the shield sent the Liger moving backwards slightly.

The Liger is still facing the Breaker, 100 meters from the zoid.

The Breaker is slightly angled to the right in comparison to the Liger,

The Breaker has sustained light damage to the right shield.

The Liger has sustained minimal damage to its front left blade and leg.

Turn Order: Eli, Orion

Rion watched carefully as Eli began her charge. He'd gotten a pretty good measure of the Breaker's acceleration during its intial charge, and he had every intention of using that knowledge to his advantage here.

Setting the Liger's footlocks and settling the Zoid into a defensive position, Rion waited until the last possible moment to activate the Liger's E-Shield and took the charge head-on, hoping to stun the other pilot with the sudden impact, before setting the shield back to the Liger's neck and firing the particle beam straight up at the Breaker's head at melee range. (A legal move, as the Breaker's cockpit is in its chest).

The shield was for the most part useless now, leaving the Hybrid Liger to depend on its Bio Zoid armor for protection. Since the so-called "Hell Armor" of Bio Zoids was pretty damn tough stuff, however, that fact didn't bother Orion unduly.

Still, he was determined to give the shield a proper sendoff. He deactivated the giant, pink polygon and banked the Liger hard to the right, prepared to dodge the grappling claw he was sure would soon be in pursuit, and after running a short distance, slammed down the left paw for a quick turnaround and charged the Breaker's left side, leaping at the back of the dino's shoulder. He activated the E-Shield in midair, hoping to bash the Breaker with the remainder of its strength and sink his teeth and claws into its neck and back when the shield dissipated.

(( Just to clarify for Iz from the last turn, the pincir and shield are disabled. Imagine it just being like a limp limb. ))

The Hybrid Liger after recovering from the impact of the Breakers last charge disengages its e-shield. It then procedes to charge towards the right of the Breaker, which now is retreating to make space.

As soon as the Breaker engages its leg anchor, the Liger has began its attack, it once again engages its e-shield and uses the remnants of the shield as a battering ram. This pushes the Breaker back. With the force of the strike, the Liger is sent backwards due to momentum, however Orion is able to latch onto the Breakers shoulder and swing itself onto the Breaker's back.

The E-Liger has sustained damage to its e-shield which now is completely inoperable.

The Breaker has sustained moderate damage to its right shoulder and shoulder-blade/back.

Currently the Hybrid Liger is hanging by its paws on the back of the Breaker.

Turn Order: Eli, Orion

As soon as the Breaker activated its boosters, taking off at top speed, Orion knew what Eli was trying to do. Thinking quickly, he snapped both both blades out and forward at 35 degrees to the Liger's body, then used the rotary mounts to angle them downwards at the Breaker's back (but not straight down; they're still angled forward).

He then flipped the Liger's horn into the forward position. Raising the Liger's tail, he whipped it downward, burying the axe blade on the tip into the base of the Breaker's tail. Lifting the Liger's front right paw, he slammed it as deep into the Breaker's back as the claws would go. The other three paws followed in similar fashion. Finally, checking his angles, Rion reared the Liger back and thrust forward and down as hard as he could, spearing each blade into the base of a shield arm and jamming his Zoid's horn straight through the back of the Breaker's neck.

In the cockpit, Rion smiled grimly, preparing for impact. If he was coming off, he was taking the thing's head, both shields and half its back with him.
