Episode 11: The disgraceful Gauntlet
I must thank you for reading it... for this is the longest part to an episode I have made. The song I really, really wanted for this part didn't work (I almost decided not to post today) but I must continue... For ground combat!!!



Evette: Brother, where the heck did you get this song!?

Heavy Metal: From the flea market... you like?

Evette: It sounds more like your song than mine.

Heavy Metal: Who cares! Anyway, It’s been a long time sis. Do you mind telling me what’s going on?

Evette: The true question is do you have what it takes to defeat me.

Heavy Metal: I’ll take that as a maybe.

Evette: (Laughing) let’s see what you got! (She quickly pulls out her beam rifle and starts shooting)

Heavy Metal: You can’t beat me now!

(He kneels down and shoots his Vulcan. The barrels rotate so fast that it takes six shots before it creates a spark and it explodes.)

Evette: Impressive…

Heavy Metal: You’re in my territory now! (He bends two light poles and sends them at her)

Evette: My poor brother… I’m just surprised that just about everything in this world is controlled by computer now days.

(While she slashes the control mechanisms out of the poles, he attaches the barrels of his Vulcan back to his wrists.)

Evette: Enough games!!

Heavy Metal: Who said I was playing! (Pulls out his sword)

(Evette shoots an energy wave out of her double saber; he blocks it and loses his balance. She dashes toward him and jumps in the air. He uses elite defense while still trying to keep standing, she thrusts her double saber into the left part of his mech and drags it downwards. As soon as she penetrates through the torso of his mech, he cuts through her left arm with his sword. They both back up and stare at each other)

(Meanwhile, the special war time news reporters are watching)

News reporter: It’s currently dark outside people… a little after 8:00pm and Heavy Metal is clashing an unknown mech. It appears all the Imperial forces can do is watch them battle to the bitter end!

Imperial Force: You are unauthorized personnel, please leave at once.

Camera man: No way man… this is the sh**!

Imperial Force: Damn… I have a bad feeling about them being here. *Looks around* Silk Marauder… why’d you defect?

Heavy Metal: Evette… this is pointless. I never did tell you what really happened…

Evette: I don’t care!! I have to do something way more important!!

Heavy Metal: *Thinking* That last attack she made took my output down by 30%... I have to end this now. (He sends a negative charge to his left arm and kneels down)

Evette: *Thinking* He’s got to be planning to use that Vulcan again. On the sixth shot, he’s history. (She grasps her double saber with one hand. She dashes and dodges the first three shots and blocks the next two.) I got you!! (As soon as the six shot goes off, a huge explosion hits her mech and her cockpit shatters) Wha-what happened!?

Heavy Metal: The first time you used the sparks to make weapons and things explode, I thought you’re abilities were just unstable with it but then I realized you were using some kind of telepathy. I attached my bazooka to my other arm like a magnet so I could quickly switch them when you least expected it. (Cheesy grin) and it worked

Evette: That was a really nice strategy you had but there is no such thing as being telepathic. You idiot, my mech does that!

Heavy Metal: Oh yeah… you …could be right…

Evette: I thought you had some kind of telepathic abilities as well until I looked inside of your mech and saw it had an advanced hacking system.

Heavy Metal: Me telepathic? (Cracks up) Now, you’re going to tell me what exactly you are thinking!!

Evette: …

Heavy Metal: Don’t get shy now!

Evette: You have to kill me!

Heavy Metal: Huh!?

Evette: I want to clear your name of everything… If you kill me now, the agency will see me as the mastermi-

Heavy Metal: Hold it!! This is not the way!! If I have to be the one that dies then so be it!!

Evette: You will but that’s crazy… I’d still be hunted down anyway.

Heavy Metal: Yeah, but it still gives you a chance to live, I’ll do anything for you, you know that. Now, about that incident 10 years ago

Evette: Brother, I already know the truth. I know more about it than you do.

Heavy Metal: What!? How do you know exactly?

Evette: Three years ago, I was working for a non profitable organization. That’s when I met Lord Talon. He promised me he would help me save the people that are struggling and below the poverty level. This war dragged on for so long that no one even cares about the civilians. Then Talon stopped funding it completely and claimed to be the one who deserves to rule over everyone. I decided to infiltrate his base. Upon entering it, I saw documents of how his ancestors got rich by experiments to create chips that suppose to revive people by attaching devices to the dead… I never fully understood the rest…

Heavy Metal: So, that means this whole time you knew the whole truth about our mother?

Evette: Yes. That experiment I was talking about has a flaw in it and our mother was part of it. She went mad and killed every close relative of ours and one day she killed our father. Afterwards you battled her; she couldn’t kill you but couldn’t control herself so she destroyed the chip.

Heavy Metal: Wait a minute… that means she died before then! How long was she...

Evette: She may not have even been dead... They experimented on her when you where around seven.

Heavy Metal: This is too much. How come you teamed up with Silk Marauder?

Evette: Actually we both work for Renegade. They both were part of the Imperial army and decided to stray away from it when they attempted to kill me just for me being the sister of an agent and not complying with their orders.

Heavy Metal: I just found out about that! *Clinches his fists* So, now what?

Evette: (laughs) You’ll probably be sentenced to death and killed for the conspiracy of being a high ranking officer for the Dark Army.

Heavy Metal: Stop being a pessimist. I got a plan but I need to know just how long the barrier around this base is going to be on. We’re sitting ducks if the Imperial Army gets permission to raid this place.

Evette: … *Notices something* Huh!?

(Evette notices something traveling under ground and tackles Heavy Metal out the way. The swords upheaval and skewers her mech. and break his sword)

Heavy Metal: Siiiiiiisssster!! (He jumps out the cockpit and to see her condition)

Genocide: … damn, wrong one! (Tries to break through the barrier but notices the media’s van and some people) Hmm… I’ll show every person on this earth who’s really in control!! (Snaps) I’ll make the war end my way!! (He shows off by summoning forth light swords and then makes them rain down on everyone.)

Heavy Metal: Evette!! (Holds her tight and cries) I didn’t want something like this to happen! Why’d you do it!

Evette: ...

Heavy Metal: All this time and t–t-this is what happens!? (Looks at her soulless body) Grrrrrraaaaaaaaaa!! Why!? Why did it have to be like this!?

(10 minutes late, Genocide has just finished off two serpents piloted by amateurs)

Heavy Metal: (Gets back in his mech, picks up her double saber, and snaps) YOU!! I will not let you leave here alive!!

Genocide: What!? You’re not who I thought was in that mech, you’re just a mere child!! *Thinking and building rage* I guess the tabloids where right. Some one named Heavy Metal is piloting that mech now. Now I might not ever find out the truth. *Talking* You honestly think a little broke down mech with a little angry child can defeat me… (Snaps) On a chess board pawns shouldn’t try to be more than what they are!(Turns on his boosters)

To Be Continued…
