Finger grazing over the necklace as Lloyd clasped it at your back, it fell between your collarbone and the green Yin Medallion. He explained how it was meant to bring luck and fortune to a person. The blueish shine of the wolf on the pendant complimented your eyes.. or so he claimed.

You could swear you felt it pulse against your own heart, but before you could give it too much thought, it was forgotten as you heard the commentators begin.

It was a real shame WyldFyre was helping the dragons with brumation, she would've loved the annual 'Mech Master 5000' race.

Especially with all the crashing, and evil villains you'd let her beat up..

..huh.

Yeah, you should probably stop eating snacks and go chase after the Mechanic.

Gently resting your street food on a fence, you leapt down into the race track, unsheathing your sword. "HEY MECHANIC! PISS OFF!"

The red wearing-fake eye having-bowler hat loving guy turned around, rolling his eyes. "Seriously?! I finally make my comeback and you stupid Ninja are still here!?" He shouted, climbing into one of the mechs he hijacked.

Sora swung over, her new grappling hook glowing pink. "And some new additions!" She grinned, placing her hand flat on the windshield. The mech began to glow pink, disassembling itself.

And it seemed like it was going to be really easy.. until he flung another mech over, smashing it into Sora.

She tumbled off, the mech's arm locking her in place. "...shit.." you heard her groan. When you turned to go to her, she waved you off.

Lloyd ran around you, sticking his sword up in the air as he slid under the mech, slicing through the thin metal, pulling and snapping wires. And it would've worked really well if the Mechanic didn't just jump into another mech.

The burgundy mech he was now in leapt over your head, racing off as the other robot suits followed, controlled by some sort of connection to the Mechanic.

Running over to Sora, you began pulling the mech off of her, making okay progress, but it wasn't fast enough. Lloyd ran beside you, shouting at Kai to get in the disabled mech.

He stopped right next to you, pulling on the metal. Together, you made quick work, letting Sora slip back out.

The kid groaned, holding her abdomen. "Fuckkk that's gonna bruise." She whined, pulling the pink circle off of her back. "Your's isn't done yet, but I am not about to get beat up more. It's basically the same as the gauntlet and hook."

Taking the disk, you nodded, turning to the mech on the ground. Throwing the circle up, you surrounded it by your power, causing it to glow.

The disk separated, attaching itself to the disabled mech. The silver joints turned a coppery color as it was gilded by the Chronosteel. As it finished recoloring pink and fixing, you leapt inside, skating towards the Mechanic.

Pulling your fist back, you punched the back of the Mechanic's Mech, causing him to fly forwards.

He drifted onto the bridge, looking for ways to escape. The Mechanic started moving towards the other side of the bridge, back to land... Until Kai used his fire to launch himself to the other side, trapping him on the bridge.

Smirking, you began slowly approaching the man. "Where you gonna run now?" You were vaguely aware of Lloyd, Sora, and Arin behind you, and made a note not to crush them. Pressing your luck, you moved closer, Kai doing the same on the other side.

"I'm gonna run over you!" The Mechanic shouted, speeding towards you. Without thinking, you sped up, meeting him in the middle, both mechs pushing against each other. "Stop ruining ma' plan!"

Tilting your head, you pushed him back. "Oh? Your plan? I'm surprised you finally came up with one by yourself. You're moving up in the world, from lackey to really bad mediocre villain! Congrats on the promotion!" You exclaimed, kicking the mech's knee, causing it to dent.

Kai lunged from behind, locking the mech's head in an headlock, pulling him back. "What even was your plan?! Have a bunch of mechs to display in your basement or something? That's our thing!"

The Mechanic struggled like a toddler, flailing his limbs around. "Back off! I was gonna get some big bucks for these machines! I stole 'em fair and square!"

"Loser alert!" Arin shouted, grappling onto the top of the mech, trying to worm his way inside to pull the mechanic out. "Someone needs to steal from kids because he's too lazy to get a normal job! Come on man, who does that?!"

Lloyd ran forward as you opened your cockpit, throwing him your sword. He grabbed it, the sword beginning to glow green.  He swung it towards the Mechanic, slicing off one of the mech's legs.

The Mechanic stumbled forward, falling straight. Until he aimed towards you. The broken mech crashed into you, sending you tumbling off the bridge, and into the river.

Your mech began blaring alarms about being too close to water, and possibly short circuiting. Fuck.

Attempting to leap out of the mech, you fell to the metal, your foot not moving. The seatbelt was twisted around your ankle. Panicking as you fell closer to the water, you pulled on your leg, unable to free yourself. Double Fuck.

As the mech smacked into the water, you were flung towards it, stumbling and barely catching yourself. Taking deep breaths, you tried not to panic any more as the metal began to sink. If you still had your sword on you, you would've cut it, but you didn't. And since it was the Crossroad's Carnival, Lloyd managed to convince you to only bring one weapon. You were so stupid for listening to him.

Standing on your toes, you took a deep breath as you were pulled under the water, sinking deeper and deeper. Swimming back to the now offline cockpit, you looked for anything that could cut you free. The pressure in your ears began to build as you sank.

It grew dark around you, and the mech became tangled in seaweed. The last of the light left your vision, you managed to spot a pair of wire cutters under the seat. As the last of your breath left your lungs, you grasped onto the handles of the pliers. Slipping the seatbelt between the jaws of the cutters, you worked your way through the tight fabric, freeing yourself.

Your body gasped for air, your lungs being filled with water.

Swimming up towards the surface, you managed to make out two figures, both reaching hands out to you. Pressing forward, you could feel the burning of the river water slid down your throat.

One of the figures, albeit, both hard to make out, was wearing a green Gi. You weren't surprised Lloyd was here.

You were surprised at the glowing blue figure behind him though. Was that..?

Reaching towards him, your vision began to blur, the sound of your heartbeat filling your head. Your body began to convulse, spasms forming from your chest.

Head ringing, you made a final push towards the surface as your limbs grew weak, your heartbeat slowing.

And staring up to the surface with your last moment, you made eye contact with the sea.
