King Yafeu and Supremeo attack Sigmond from the front, unloading attacks from Supremeo's star cannons and the King's liquid metal guns. Kapurma dashes to the side of Sigmond attacking the base of his monstrous form.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x9BnWcC4z
Kapurma lands a strike but is knocked back by the self-proclaimed emperor's force field tech. Kapurma strikes the base again but the force field does not break.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtWh0NyPxT
Kapurma looks to see how the King and Supremeo are holding up against Sigmond's new form and to his surprise, the star cannon blast rips open a hole through the force field but stops short of hitting Sigmond. So King Yafeu fires a few rounds of liquid metal bullets through the opening. The shots hit him as planned but do minimal damage in helping the heroes win the fight.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdAGPmipwB
The King frustrated by the little damage he does tells Supremeo. I'm gonna need gun turrets like him to make a serious dent.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUyt186dN3
Supremeo adds, "Or a rocket launcher."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlkY9GcRBG
As Supremeo and the King plot their next move, Sigmond maneuvers his gun turrets to the ground toward Kapurma. He begins to shoot. Kap dodges the shots effortlessly. He goes for another blow at the base of Sigmond's monstrous form again. Kapurma throws his inekium staff with all his might, only for it to bounce off.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXopNfb24D
Kap catches his staff and backpedals away from Sigmond to regroup and strategize. Kapurma connects with the King and Supremeo through comms and tells them both, "My friends I'm afraid I'm not going to be of much use to you on this part of the fight. My inekium staff isn't able to make a dent in his force field tech! Unless one of you can come up with some ideas."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLoimKhUTZ
Supremeo says, "I have a few...I've been in contact with Sylvia. She plans to send 20 aiutu units to back us up. Until then I can lend you a Star cannon."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjM8ZnUjL5k
Kap replies, "Only 20!? I hate to sound like I'm complaining but we're gonna need way more help than that!! And Supremeo I thank you for your offer in lending me a cannon but by the looks of it, you're going to need it more than me. You're doing way more damage with you and the King by your side. I would hate to slow down your momentum.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVSpXvLg0U
Supremeo replies, "I wasn't talking about my remaining arm, or the tech that King Yafeu lent me. I was talking about my arm that got cut off."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfArc5Gt622
Now shocked, Kapurma remembers the fight against Amaro and Julius on the deserted island on top of the airship. The old tortoise smiles and says, "That's right? Your arms are like detachable rockets!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JG4zuOjFw
A loud whistling sound can be heard echoing from the skies. Kapurma looks up and then tells Supremeo, "Just keep the cannon over my shoulder."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdPI2aVTeI
In what seems like an instant Supremeo's left arm cannon lands right next to Kapurma's shoulder and shoots off a star cannon blast ripping Sigmond's forcefield from the bottom. Creating the opening Kapurma needed. Kapurma dashes in the opening and says to Sigmond, "Let's make sure you stay right where you are!" Kapurma jams his inekium staff at the base of Sigmond's tank form breaking off gears from its wheels and disrupting Sigmond's mobility.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG0XokXEre
Sigmond yells, " You wretched beast!!" Once again the gun turrets are aimed at Kapurma. He instantly slides underneath Sigmond. As Kapurma slides underneath Sigmond's tank form he prepares to attack, until he notices what's underneath the wheels of the tank.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbka64FD68p
Looking right back at Kapurma were all the heads of the combat droids. All their red glowing eyes lock on Kap and prepare to shoot him with laser beams from their eyes. Kap quickly rolls on his back and withdraws his hands and feet on his shell. The lasers hit Kapurma's Inekium cloak draped over his back.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2vLe34ikP
Kapurma escapes through the smoke and crawls through the tilted side of Sigmond's tank. He warns the King and Supremeo saying, "The droid's heads are under the tank! Breaking any mechanism underneath is out of the question! I almost took hundreds of blasts underneath the tank!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLaDIYQ7zD
King Yafeu replies, "That damn coward! It's like he's using their bodies as a shield!? Force field tech and using innocent bodies as weapons!? Damn you Sigmond! I should've killed you! You're a sorry excuse of a warrior!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0P9bWj7mB
The self-proclaimed emperor interrupts the King by saying, "You couldn't! Little king! The chip in your body wouldn't allow it! All the will in the world and you couldn't override my tech. You call me a sorry excuse of a warrior!? I'm beyond any warrior's code little king. If your vision of a perfect world involves accepting banishment and fending for yourself by just getting by. Then you can keep that warrior's code you cherish so much. I prefer being a conqueror than a soldier or warrior!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjZNBxnqoD
Missile ports open from Sigmond's back and he tells King Yafeu and Supremeo, " Now warriors let's see what your code gets you after this! I know about your match earlier so your loved ones must be occupied at the coliseum. I've sent thousands of combat droids there to slow any help down from coming here. So let's add 5 missiles to their current predicament to see how they hold up! "
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nsUHMFC2d
Sigmond let's off 5 missiles.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaDAUEvCW9
Then he lets off another 5 and says, "I'll also be sending off another 5 to hit random towns here. You know I can't make things too easy for you guys. I know how much "warriors" such as you two like a challenge! Hahaha! "
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gFiIGoBOT
Supremeo and King Yafeu look towards the sky. Supremeo tells the King he'll be going for the ones aimed at the coliseum. King Yafeu nods and makes his way for the missiles headed for the towns.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiP3PKVqw1
Sigmond looks to his feet and tells himself, "Now all that's left is the beast. Where are you at? "
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRoUuX8frp
To Sigmond's surprise, a gun turret gets destroyed off Sigmond's shoulder by Kapurma. Enraged, Sigmond ignites a powerful electrical surge through his body shocking Kapurma. The Electrical surge knocks Kapurma off his feet and sends him tumbling to the ground knocking him out cold.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxjaepMu1c
Through comms Supremeo and King Yafeu hear Kapurma take the fall. Instantly they look back to Sigmond and See the conqueror focused on the fallen opponent.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU8xRMxDbp
On the other side of the battle after Supremeo destroys the last missile heading towards the coliseum. King Yafeu destroys 3. 2 are left heading towards their targets until Supremeo crashes against them using his meteor mode.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0BJ174bd0
While running towards Sigmond King Yafeu tells Supremeo, "I think your friend is gonna need our help. And he's gonna need it, FAST! "Supremeo tells the King, "I'm on it!" He makes his way toward his foe's force field as quickly as he could.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaabtszaGHA
Meanwhile, three combat droids release themselves from Sigmond's tank form. They head over to Kapurma and turn him over. The droids ignite their lasers and aim them towards Kapurma's exposed face.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISBUBXBHbN
King Yafeu tells himself, "Oh no... He's not going to make it!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WIInpXuj5
As soon as the King says this a whistling crackle echoes through the skies attacking Sigmond from behind. Sigmond looks to see who his attacker is. To his shock he sees droids. It was the 20 aiutus Sylvia promised to send over.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeh2fWiy32
Sigmond was now bewildered from the surprise attack. It also shocks the combat droids readying an attack on Kapurma. The attack buys enough time for Supremeo to crash into Sigmond's force field to eventually break it with an attack he calls the meteor charge.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQfG9Wucnj
Supremeo instantly shatters the force field and breaks through the combat droid's bodies. The aiutus grab Kapurma.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJehCSxb95v
King Yafeu throws his liquid katana toward Sigmond. It pierces Sigmond in his chest.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04jQUBB5MI

Supremeo draws a liquid Katana and pierces Sigmond's chest joining the other katana thrown by King Yafeu.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnTfL8rUkO
Sigmond crashes down to the ground and lands underneath Supremeo's feet while he holds a cannon readying a charged blast towards his face.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAzWFgtWI2
The purple gemstone that houses the manmade sun in Supremeo's palm gleams in Sigmond's eye through his star cannon, and for a moment he saw the look of fear and doubt on his face. The cannon ignites its blast and Supremeo says, "You're done, conqueror."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12rODhnxji
Sigmond laughs and says, "No not really, you weren't listening when I was talking to the little king were you? I'm beyond being a warrior. Do you think that I would risk it all in a fight? How brutish and simple to think that. I am beyond a physical form now. I am a program, a way of life! Destroy this form I will come back again! "
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBYOE4nk32
Out of nowhere...
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrn2hex42u
FWOOOOM!!!
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yhSUYGs01
Supremeo blasts off Sigmond's head with his star cannon and tells Sigmond, "I'll be ready for you when you come back again!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQxAbBZ7cA
As soon as this happens the tank breaks apart and all combat droids shut off.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKAnftYVI8
Supremeo looks to King Yafeu. He gives him a nod.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvknqvyPOCF
He heads towards the King.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1DMoSzgWo
Supremeo shuts off his meteor mode.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgaFTj8g4P
He tells King Yafeu, "Earlier you said I was all tech and no technique..."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4HEUUBTIL
The King laughs and says, "Haha! Yeah sorry about that!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxD0XW56KG
Supremeo interrupts saying, "No you don't understand. I want you to teach me!" King Yafeu laughs saying, "Well sorry about chipping your chest plate and your arm breaking off even though I didn't do that."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcN2gZx4din
Supremeo replies, "It's all good my friend. What you really need to apologize for is threatening to cut one of my guy's head off and putting it on your shelf!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Qsi3gs4QL
King Yafeu embarrassed laughs and says, "Haha! Yeaaah I did say that, didn't I? We'll sorry about THAT. It's just a bad reflex I get when I feel I'm being played. Before the Edson's partnered with me other companies just came here to study the droid population making personal weapons for themselves. Taking care of the citizens here was last on their minds.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRAf4t2vZK
Supremeo's liquid metal arm disconnects from him and moves toward King Yafeu and molds back into the King's arm. All three heroes make their way back to the coliseum.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0mpFotHsa
Supremeo tells the King, "Well you never would have to worry about that! We'll have your back."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIrOBdYgaL
Time passes and the King asks Supremeo, "Where'd you get your fighting skills from? Supremeo tells the King, "I have Training memories with Bernard Sullivan. The first great hero of this world and the last of the old world. As you know just like Adira he's been alive for hundreds of years. I have most of that knowledge built in me." The King smiles and says, "Training memories? I don't know what that means. Wow though maybe we could learn from each other? Honestly, I fought like that in our match because I thought I could scare you off, but guess I was wrong..."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7oq4cL61r
Supremeo throws a punch and kick towards the air and says, "No hard feelings in misjudging my bravery either. Just hope you have some tools to strap my arm back.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaABthEOAe
Out of nowhere Kapurma wearily replies, "Don't forget the ice cream!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UOn1EMEY3
The King answers, "Yes and yes!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVIz5lSdLi
He continues saying, "You guys are talented fighters I give you props..."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdLBJHU42c
Before anyone could answer movement is heard from a distance.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfByrLUOWna
A combat droid stands. Its eyes glow red. It delivers a message in a familiar voice. It's Sigmond's voice they hear. He says to the three heroes, " You guys are all talking as if you're in the clear!? I'm not letting you off all so easily. Here's a lesson for you all to dwell on. Your battle with my horde was noble and honorable. Saving keeping their heads to hopefully give them back their freedom...I made an account of that... "
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eTRXMZwb1
Once the heroes hear this. Their eyes widen as they see all the combat droids standing once again.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0oHG2ghJE
Sigmond continues to say, "My horde's number reaches one million. There are exactly 700 thousand of these droids I sent to me. 300 thousand over to the coliseum. That leads us right here. To me, a good soldier will not only fight for you. They will DIE for you as well! "
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMJnYXrVDR
King Yafeu yellls, "We won't kill them!" Sigmond replies, "No the fight is done! Every single combat droid you've fought has a bomb in its head. Implanted by MY ORDERS! The strength of this virus is truly amazing Yafeu!! I have my own platoon of kamikaze soldiers! You hold so much of these people's weight in pain. Let's see how you deal with the genocide of 1 million combat droids! "
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9a6RZZfre
The three soldiers look around them and for miles, they are surrounded by combat droids.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSrsDl62g1
Supremeo yells, "AIUTU'S FLY US TO SAFETY!!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNarCWvHiV
In an instant after Sigmond gives the command. The combat droids explode killing themselves altogether.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8Umy5uZN0
The helper droids follow their command on time and fly the heroes above the epic explosion.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPh4S4MQwR
King Yafeu looks below his feet and to his horror, he sees a roaring blaze of incinerated metal that stretches for miles. Thoughts of failure and feelings of pain are on his face as he sees the flames dance over the scorched metal.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbdARYbMLJ
Then King Yafeu hears Supremeo yelling,
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNEY0RMGqG
"No!
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSe4uQU4x3
NOO!!!"
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetbdejm44Z
King Yafeu turns to Supremeo's direction and sees what he's yelling at. From a far distance that only robots could see. They both are witness to sections of the coliseum on fire from the horde blowing their heads up as well.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHBFNpw3gB
Supremeo makes his way toward the burning structure to aid his friends.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnZP1IV9uV
The aiutu sees this and immediately follows with The King with Kapurma in tow.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSU8Z4gvOJ6
Many miles later...
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fzjVB7kQq
They make it to the coliseum. Frantically Supremeo makes his way to the crowd. Piles of flaming robots lay lifeless everywhere. While the injured get tended to and the dead are mourned.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXmS0nlR3h
Supremeo witnesses a droid mourning a deceased citizen of Avalon who also happened to be human. It snaps him back to look for his friends.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs5pK9NkHH
Now searching for his friends Supremeo looks around the coliseum and tells himself, "Wow this city's population joined in on the fight and helped Max and everyone else...The King truly is an inspirational leader..."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCGFkKMymv
Minutes pass and Supremeo continues to look for a familiar face within the coliseum. He's yet to find one.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkRfLjy31n
Once he does, he gives a smile and a sigh of relief. The same gesture however isn't reciprocated.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9LHw7oblm
Supremeo sees Bast who still looks on edge as if the fight is still going she tells Supremeo, "They'll be here any minute now. 1 million explosions set off simultaneously. They're gonna want to see if their dreams came true. They'll want to see if we all burned ourselves to hell..."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraX277fJa3
Supremeo says, "Bast no please what are you talking about?" She just remains silent as she stares and witnesses the destruction before her eyes. They start to build up tears. Supremeo comforts Bast, then he hears another voice. It's Zachary, through comms he says, "Yes if you can tell them to chill that would help so much. And yes we're going to need tons of aid when you get here." Supremeo asks, "Zach! Who are you talking to!?" He says, "Sylvia and Ryan! They're on their way here."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OpwKYQPeV
Through the other end of the line Sylvia tells Zachary, "Oh Supremeo's there? Glad you all ended up safe! Well help as best as we can in handling the rest."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iuBrSYaBo
Zachary replies, "That's the thing Sylvia...there's another thing I had to tell you before you get here... It's Richard, he got hurt bad...
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7uqXRMr0T
Supremeo: WHAT!?
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK69cfVK36A
Sylvia: WHAT!?...
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZbCPqi8cL
The party head to a corner of the coliseum floor and to Supremeo's horror. He sees his creator's friend's only son, laid out on the ground. His body was riddled with shrapnel from the blown up combat droids.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7N23BGMd4
Richard's head rests on Sarah's lap. Maxwell grips his hand tightly to let him know everyone is by his side. He tells Richard, "Zach's got her on the other end buddy...Just Say what you have to say!.."
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7e8gAlj41n
The feeling of numbness runs through Supremeo's body. The sound of silence follows. For the first time in his short life, Supremeo feels the pain of letting a loved one down.
413Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6OsPJf0dy
As Zach puts the phone to Richard's ear he says to his fiancee, "Sylvia... tried...I'm so sorry."
