Scrap Brain Factory

Raku



Raku and Magneton both float towards the head of the mech. Raku fires from the helicopters guns. It seems to do some damage to the mech. Magneton's Thunderbolt seems to be more effective as the mech seems to be a bit twitching a bit.

Dawn tries to use Flash on the Mecha Cluck but it doesn't seem to have any effect on him at all. It seems like whatever the mech didn't shield out, the rest of the light was filtered out by his goggles. One of the spiked balls was aimed behind everyone and seems to open up more of the factory.

The other spike ball seems to be headed towards the ground. The ground causes a bit of a rumble and causes Khaii, Sonic, and Dawn to lose their footing. That might affect their ability to move or dodge any attacks next turn.

The shot Khaii fires was also thrown off due to the ground rumbling. Khaiis shot seems to get more of the side and less of the joint. The mech is still injured but not as much as it should have been.

Mecha Cluck recalls the two spiked spheres and he starts swinging them above his head. The spiked balls are far enough away from Raku and Magneton but it would be risky to get close. A hatch open up along the front of the mech. A whole bunch of cannons are seen and they are pointed towards Khaii, Dawn, and Sonic.

Raku

Dawn places a light screen in front of the party to help suppress the shots coming from Mecha Cluck. Dawn is then barely able to scramble out of the way before being stomped by the mech. Kahii somersaults out of the way of the mech with minimal effort. Sonic spin dashes out of the way of the incoming mech.

Magneton let's loose another Thunderbolt towards the mech. Magneton aims for where their are sparks coming and it proves to be super effective. The mech is even sparking more and smoke is coming out of the mech. Raku then aims for the chains holding the balls in place. Raku is able to destroy the links holding the ball that was spinning. The results are both good and bad from that outcome.

The chain ball that was swinging above his head is sent flying towards Magneton. Magneton is unable to both dodge and fire a Thunderbolt. The ball makes a direct hit right into Magneton. Luckily, Magneton is able to withstand the impact but it seems to be in pretty bad shape. Well Raku assumes it's bad shape because it's eyes and magnets seem very dropey. Magneton then very weakly towards Raku and hovers there.

When the Mecha Cluck, fires at Dawn and the others. The light screen is able to lessen the damage from the fire. Kahii, Sonic, and Dawn are lightly injured by the fire. Sonic is still curled up in a ball like he is preparing something.

Kahii is able to get a clean shot at the leg joints. The shot is able to destroy the joints effectively crippling the mech. The mech is now motionless which is bad news for the mech. The other ball that was swinging in front of it still had all of it's momentum going. The mech comes to a complete stop and is then struck by the ball right on top of it's head.

Sonic takes the initiative and then uses a homing attack on the same ball that struck Magneton. The ball then goes towards the mecha cluck and makes a direct impact. The mech is sparking like crazy and it seems to be glowing.

Colonel Cluck can be heard clucking like crazy before the mech explodes.

(Do not post yet.)

Raku notices Dawn seems to recognize what’s going on, and as the two of them look at each other Dawn telepathically send a chunk of knowledge over to her. Due to the chip in her brain Raku is able to quickly process it, weigh the pros and cons of letting Magneton (which she finally knows the name of instead of just “metal ball things”) evolve and opts to reach out and gently prod it with the back of her pulse spear, cancelling the evolution.
“Let’s keep you like this for now, having three separate pieces to split into is too valuable of a skill to lose just yet.”
She then hears Sonic ask about letting the bird join them.
“Hmm? Oh, yeah sure. Welcome to the team, I guess.”

Raku, Dawn, and Magneton

Magneton splits into three separate Magnemites and they float towards Raku and Dawn. The individual Magnemites are able to catch Dawn and Raku as they are falling. The lone Magnemite which isn't carrying someone is able to look for solid ground. When it notices floor underneath them, it directs the remaining Magnemites towards a safe landing place.

The area is pitch Black until Raku and Dawn touch down on the floor. As soon as they land the entire room lights up and it seems to be a place where a bunch of broken and scraped robots are. The area Raku and Dawn is standing on is at least clear. Yet there seems to be a sizable gap between you and where the broken Machines are. Magneton could easily carry you to the other side where there is an elevator to the floor above.

Unfortunately there is a couple of things preventing you from doing that right now. First the area leading to the exit is heavily barrier and it doesn't seem like anything that can be opened with brute force. The second thing is the pile of broken robots seem to be rumbling.



Instead of the entire pile moving or coming alive a bunch of holes begin to form. Then what look like mechanical moles begin to individually pop out of the holes. The mechanical moles then begin to speak with Raku as they each individually speak to her.

"Intruder,".

"Intruder,".

"Order to squash them,"

"Bash them,".

"Turn them to Mush,".

"They can't reach us to far,".

"Can't see us to fast,".

"Begin extermination of rats," the moles say to Raku and Dawn.

The mechanical moles are popping out of each of the individual holes at a rapid rate. It's hard to tell which ones are popping out of because they seem to pop up and down in random locations. It's also is hard to judge their numbers at this rate because it could be Six (the number of holes that form) or there could be much more underneath the pile.

Another issue Raku notices is that the holes are closed with a thick metal plate. The plates only open when the moles come out to either taunt Raku. The plates also open when they seem to be tossing bombs and other debris towards Dawn and Raku.

Like now it seems like there are three moles on the other side. Two of the moles have what appear to a ball of metal. The other mole appears to be carrying a bomb. All three are aiming towards Dawn and Raku.

Sonic, Kahii, and Cluck

Sonic and the others continue to head down the end of the hallway. When Sonic and the others reach the end of the hallway, they enter through the door way. Sonic and the others notice they are inside what appears to be a huge dome.

The dome has various ramps scattered throughout the area. Their also seems to be various platforms of different sizes and height scattered throughout the different dome. Sonic can head what sounds likes an engine of some type.



An egg shaped robot appears on one side of the dome. The robot seems tp be swinging what appears to be a flail. The Robot is also riding what looks a deranged mechanical Ladybug. The Robot begins to move rapidly around the dome while swinging its flail.

The robot then rapidly moves towards Sonic and Kahii.

Raku and Dawn

(Just when you thought it couldn't get any more fun.)

Dawn gets behind Raku and sets up a Lightshade in front of them.

Raku then opens her palm and a shield forms behind the Light Shield.

The three magnetmites each launch a Thunder wave at the individual moles.

The mole holding the bomb throws the bomb and disappears into the hole. The mole is already inside the hole before the Thunder Wave can effect it. The Thunder Wave harmlessly hits the metal plate before being negated.

The two moles holding the ball of metal are each hit by the Thunder Wave. It seems like the balls of metal are heavier then the bombs. One of the moles shrugs off the shot and tosses the ball towards the group.

The third mole though begins to glitch a bit. The ball falls on top of its head and it's destroyed. The hole closes before the ball can fall inside.

The ball bounces off the light screen but the light screen begins to crack down the middle. The bomb is able to strike the crack and completely destroy the light screen. The shield is able to absorb most of the blow. Dawn and Raku are pushed backwards a bit by the force of the explosion.

A little good news bad news. The good news is that these moles are fairly easy to defeat it looks like. They don't seem like they can take much damage at all. Also depending on what they are holding they may stay out longer.

Now the bad news and Raku and Dawn can hear a rumbling underneath them. All of a sudden they can hear a engine or motor starting. Next thing they see is one of the giant metal wall behind them slowly start to move. It moves a little before coming to a stop. Now Raku and Dawn have a little less move but still plenty of room to move around. Unfortunately, this also places a time limit on how long they have to destroy the moles.

New Fail Condition: Failing to defeat all the moves in 10 turns.

Just as the wall stops moving 4 moles appear at the corners of each hole.

Here's my best attempt at doing a diagram on my phone.

[M] [] [M]
[M] [] [M]

M= Mole
[] = Empty


The mole in the upper left corner has a ball of metal. The mole in the upper right has a bomb. The moles in the lower corners are holding what appear to be rocket launchers. Wait why would a robotic mole need a rocket launcher.

Kahii and Sonic

Despite being called Heavy Rider it's a lot quicker and mobile then you expect. Kahii tries to get out of the way and aim for the tires. Also Colonel Cluck launches Egg Bombs at the tire.

Kahii and Colonel Cluck are able to dodge out of the way of the Rider.

Heavy Rider zips around the laser shots and is for the most part able to avoid the grenades. One of the grenades hit the Motobug and cause Heavy Rider a little bit of inconvenience. Sonic only needed a little bit of an opening though to get a hit in on the Heavy Rider. Heavy Rider falls off of Motobug and is dragged to the end of the dome where it disappears into a door.

A door opens above the dome and Heavy Rider is riding on the top of the roof. A couple of the roof panels seem to be raised just ever so slightly over the others. Chances are they could trigger something if he runs over them.

"I completely forgot about the Hard Boiled Heavies,". "They are a special group of robots that work alongside Dr. Egghead,". "This one here is called Heavy Rider and his speciality is speed due to Motobug,". "Also it allows him for greater mobility especially in an area like this," Sonic informs you.

(All of Heavy Riders action take place in the dome. So right now he is driving upside down)

Raku

Raku and Dawn take aim at the bomb wielding moles. Dawn is able to aims physic bolts of energy at the mole before it can throw the bomb. Raku for good measure shots the bomb and the mole in the upper right corner is destroyed.

Magneton is able to use Thunderbolt to destroy the mole in the upper left corner. Yet the other two mole launch their rockets and disappear before Magneton can get a shot off at them.

Magneton moves into position to intercept the rockets. Raku at the same time places a shield up. The shield protects Magneton from a direct hit from the rockets. Yet the force of the explosion does cause Magneton to be pushed back into the wall. It seems like it took some damage but defiantly not as bad as taking a direct hit.

Once again the wall behind you moves a little and once again the area you have to maneuver is slightly less. Still not enough to severely hamper movement yet.

This time the moles appear out like this.

[MB] [-] [-]

[MR] [MM] [MP]

[MB] Mole w/ a Bomb
[MR] Mole w/ a Rocket Launcher
[MM] Mole w/ a Metal Ball
[MP] Mole w/ a ??

One of the moles in the lower right corner seems to have a strange device in his hand. Upon closer inspection you don't see anything in his hands meant to be thrown at you. Yet he seems to be wearing something and a faint aura surrounds him. Upon closer inspection it seems to be a badge with a lighting bolt across the center. Finally it seems to be turning around and readying 2 more badges to aim at the empty holes.

You could continue to try and pick off the moles one by one. But there has to be a more efficient way of dealing with this problem.

Kahii

(You forgot about the Chicken.)

Khaii begins to take aim at the ceiling where Heavy Rider is and where it's going. Khaii blasts the ceiling along the path of Heavy Rider hoping the bumps along the path would knock it off the ceiling. Unfortunately two things seem to work against you. When Khaii shots the ceiling the ceiling of the dome doesn't take as much damage as you expect. It seems like the area has been heavily reinforced to take into account Heavy Rider and Motorbug riding around at high speeds.

The ceiling is slightly damaged but not enough to cause Heavy Rider any issues. Heavy Rider rolls over the tiny indents like they weren't really there. Maybe if you aimed at the spots that were already shot at maybe it could cause a bit of a problem. Colonel Cluck tries chucking grenades at the Heavy Riders Path. The grenades seem to have a bit more an impact. But they take a bit longer to explode and need to be set up in advance. Compared to the shots.

Heavy Rider is able to reach the raised platform up top. It seems to have activated a switch and underneath you a bunch of cannons appear. The cannons prepare to shot flames at the group causing some damage. A yay could be heard coming from somewhere perhaps Heavy Rider.

Sonic tries to reach Heavy Rider in time but by the time he gets within striking damage. She is already gone.

Everyone seems to be somewhat injured but nothing to bad.

A door to the side of you opens up and Heavy Rider is again holding a flail in one hand. In the other hand appears to be bombs in the shape of Eggman.
