In the Auditorium the crowd were still reeling from the last match during the intermission. Various Quintesson sellers were going up and down the ailes selling their alien foods and metals, food organic and non-organics; some of it still very much alive the rest - not so much. As per, The General was whizzing around the air of the auditorium, occasionally glancing up at the VIP box where the Quintesson judges floated behind their balcony. Soon The general had a mental telepathic messages from one of the judges telling him it was time. Back in the crowd various members of the gathered audience were waving their placards and neon signs when they caught sight of one of the many air camera floating past them, many of them set up above the stadium to catch the matches from all angles. The crowd bagan a chant in the crowns hungry for violence and death! "WE WANT OIL!" *CLAP CLAP CLAP "WE WANT OIL!" *CLAP CLAP CLAP "WE WANT OIL!" *CLAP CLAP CLAP (Repeat ad infinitely..) The crowd's delight was soon silenced however with what they saw next.. All of a sudden the floodlights dimmed to just one huge spotlight on the ring as dramatic music began to play, A huge titanium, re-enforced steel cage with spikes on the inside of the cage walls and on the inside of the roof was lowered! Although these would be outside the eight-sided ring, one nasty shove over the steel ropes and these nasty, long spikes could impale and hurt them! At least they wouldn't be able to fall into the caverns of lava oceans below however. It took a good half a breem for the whole entire ring to lower securely. As the ring lowered the special guest referee came out also. Once the cage was securely fixed and the giant mesh door opened the guest referee entered as the announcer above introduced the match. "The following contest as the humans would say is a "David Vs Goliath" match of behemoth proportions!", came the announcement, "A handicap match like you've never seen before in our specialized cage of death! There can only be one winner, but will the lose still be standing at the end - will either of them as they battle within the confines not only of the re-inforced caged walls but the deadly spikes that adorn the inside!", he announced. The crowd cheered and began the chant again they wanted to see oil spilled, lots of oil in a dirty, nasty and violent as way as possible. "Introducing first!, the opponent, the Slayer of The Slums the colossal chaos maker, weighing in at 60 tons plus! Leeeeeeeviiiiaaaathaaaaaaaaan!"....

At the sound of his name being announced, Leviathan stepped out and made his way into the auditorium arms raised in premature victory celebration. He let out out a viscous battle cry roar then made his way to the ring. He was eager to get this party started, Terrajolt was past due for a lesson, and he was ready to teach it. Stepping into the ring he point to the crowd and yelled... "You want oil? I'll give you all the oil your processors can handle! Tonight you will witness the brutal massacre of of my opponent as I crush her with my bare hands and teach her why the name Leviathan is to be feared, and why it is associated with death, destruction, power and victory!"

Leviathan came out to a crowd of boos (A few cheers also) and the chant only continued when he told them he was going to give them what they wanted.
"WE WANT OIL!" *CLAP CLAP CLAP
"WE WANT OIL!" *CLAP CLAP CLAP...
For a few kliks he strutted round the ring, arms in the air in a show of defiance to more boos and his head still a good voyager class size below the spiked ceiling. Slowly as the music and the fan-fare began to die down the announcer introduced the challenger.
"His opponent, weighing in at only just over 2.5 tons, the masochistic minibot, the feral femmmech! Iiiiittttts.... Teeeerrrraaaaajoooooooollllt!"

Upon hearing her name, Terrajolt transformed into her motorcycle mode and revved her engine. She spun her back tire before peeling out and speeding towards the ring. She hit a bump as she entered the ring, getting some air time. Terrajolt landed on the other side of the ring to Leviathan and started to skid to a halt, transforming mid-skid. She span a couple of times as she was transforming, adding a bit of flourish to her entrance. She raised her arms as she came to a halt.
"All that talk will just make it all the more embarrassing when you're beaten by little old me!" Terrajolt cackled.

"You will be singing a different tune when separate your head from your tiny body. I think I will attach it to a chain and wear it around my neck." ...Leviathan looked at the announcer and the ref... "Let's get this shindig moving, I'm ready to stomp this runt out." ...Then he addresses Terrajolt once more... "It isn't bad enough that the Quints got me facing a freaking Minibot, but your femme-trash to boot. This totally disrespects my status as a true warrior!"

Terrajolt crouched into a fighting stance, prepared to draw any of her weapons, depending on what might come her way.
"Ooooo, big words. Careful, I wouldn't want you to hurt yourself. That's my job!" She called out. "And when you find a 'true warrior', send him my way!"

"Grrrr, why you little scraplet, mock me will you!?" ...Knowing better than to let himself be baited, Leviathan was offended so much by being placed in combat with one whom he felt was lesser than him, that he could not resist. He did not draw any weapons, nor did he feel he had to as he charged forward at Terrajolt.

"Oh, I'll mock you alright. Just wait to hear what I have to say when I beat you!" Terrajolt cackled.
She braced herself as Leviathan began his charge. She drew her E.D.K. Techvolt, raised her weapon and fired a Steel Net at Leviathan before she dived out of the way.

Leviathan was faster than the average mech his size but in the grand scheme of things he was still slow. He never saw it coming and if he had there still would not have been anything he could do about it. The steel net hit him and attached itself to him like a second paneling... "What the frag, is this how you plan to defeat me, with toys?" ...But Leviathan had spoken way too soon. He skidded to a halt as something felt funny about the net, he felt something. He grabbed at it to get it off then...

Using her speed and agility to her advantage, Terrajolt darted in, deployed one of her arm blades and lashed out at one of Leviathan's ankles.
"No, I plan on using my brain to defeat you."

Far be it for him to actually admit it out loud, but Leviathan realized his initial assessment of Terrajolt may have been a bit premature. But not matter, he was over his shock and surprise and there was no way in char he was going down during the first run. She was fast and smarter than she looked, but Leviathan was no slouch and he was going to show her that big mechs have skills too. At the moment though there was no immediate way to avoid her attack, therefore he would just have to take it and endure.
The blades ripped into and cut through the outer paneling and armor of his ankle but it was not lethal. It was times like this that his high resistance to melee attacks came in handy. Though he had such high resistance that did not include pain resistance, and the attack hurt like the dickens. Before she could continue with a follow up assault, Leviathan attempted to break free of the steel net by transforming.

Terrajolt sprinted forwards to attack again. While she wouldn't do much damage with each attack, the damage would soon mount up. However, Terrajolt saw her opponent starting to transform. She skidded to a halt and quickly backed away as she heard some of the cables from the net break. When she was satisfied she was a safe distance she prepared herself. With Leviathan in his vehicle mode, Terrajolt predicted he'd fire his vehicle mode weapon at her. She braced herself, ready to take evasive action as she heard the steel net break completely.

With transformation completed, Leviathan was now in his airship mode and free of the steel net. He brought his X24 Scrapmaker online and prepared to fire away. He knew she was fast so he planned to lay down fire not just at her but all around her, aiming at where she was and where she would go. He was going to leave her know room to maneuver if he could help it... "I have let you entertain the crowd long enough you insufferable wretch, now it is time to get serious!" ...Leviathan let loose a barrage of bullets all around as the multi-barrelled weapon swiveled back and forth.

Terrajolt looked up as she watched Leviathan rise up in his vehicle mode.
"Oh f-" She was drowned out by the crowd cheering.
Her saving grace was that Leviathan's weapon took time to fire. As the weapon wound up, Terrajolt transformed as well. She sped off just as bullets ripped into the ground next to her. Terrajolt raced around the perimeter of the arena, waiting for her opportunity to get in close to Leviathan where his weapon couldn't hit her.

As Terrajolt sped around the arena like a jacked up Kremzeek, Leviathan continued his ferocious attack. She was much faster than him and so he strafed left and right, firing at her from both sides and just ahead of her hoping to if not hit her directly than at least force her to go where she did not want to. Sooner or later she was going to have to make her move, but he was trying to make it sooner.
