Chapter 13

"Wait so that big monkey is Grinning Madness?" asked Adam.

John didn't say anything. There was a sudden dust storm and team Zero saw It was John that floored his thrusters resulting in him being flung toward the beast. Grinning Madness jumped from his standing position right into Asura starting a clash once again.

At the hanger it showed all the current single pilots vitals and they noticed John's was slowly going in the red showing he was letting his emotions out which could cause a Berserker Chasser's.

Now a Berserker Chasser is only a problem that happens with single pilots due to them being connected more with their robot, berserker starts when the pilot experiences heavy emotional trauma and then they don't care anymore thus they do the action of "sacrificing" their body in the end due to them wanting more "power" to stop whatever is causing them the emotional stress.

Back at the fight it showed Team Zero staring in awe at John holding his own against this beast. They were too busy watching the fight to notice the fallen Goji start to twitch as it showed the main Goji vomit out white creatures that looked like snakes, and then the "snakes" crawled in the corpses making them slowly change.

The once Red color scales turned pure white and a piece of flesh covered their eyes. The resurrected Gojis released a distorted screech alerting team Zero. Bartholomuel reached for his rail gun only to get a fist in the face blasting him into a nearby mountain. The Goji hunched forward then bent its head in an unnatural angle and lunged at the rest of them.

Adam took out his katana and sliced downwards cutting the Gojis in half. He took his eyes off the fallen corpses only to get rows of teeth in his shoulder. Adam grunted in pain then grabbed the face of the beast and started to squeeze, after a while a loud pop sound was heard as the upper part of the corpse fell on the ground without a head. Adam's robot was covered in orange blood and he walked off to see if the twins handled their corpse. Pepper and mint who piloted the two small robots were quick on their feet and dodged the big creatures attempts to grab the robots.

"Hey sis this guy's getting kinda boring can we just end it?" asked Pepper.

"Sure." replied Mint.

Both the robots then stood next to each other, with a huff both girls pulled a lever in the cockpit. Suddenly the sounds of gears and metal hitting each other resulting in a dust cloud to rise up.

When the Goji started to look for the two robots there weren't two anymore and only one big silhouette. The behemoth suddenly got a spear in stomach resulting in it being pinned to a nearby mountain.

The Goji looked up only to see an average sized Chasser, but it looked as if those two smaller robots merged due to it sporting a mix of their colors.

"Fusion complete Rock n Roll joined perfectly" said Both Pepper and Mint as they struck a pose and there was an explosion behind them.

The Goji just looked confused at what just happened, then out of furry ripped the spear out of its stomach and lunged at the robot. Rock n Roll dodged to the left and clasped their hands together and brought it down with all their might onto the beast resulting in it being crushed towards the earth and a small crater was made.

When the dust settled it showed the corpse was still alive but it was twitching and frothing from the mouth.

"Shame let's put the lwittle guy to bed" said Pepper in a mocking tone and jabbed the spear in its head putting the beast down finally.

The last Goji looked shocked; the resurrected beasts died again way too quick. It was about to spawn more snakes until a shadow covered it, it looked back only to get a giant hammer to the face squashing its face in and killing it instantly.

Bartholomuel just grunted.

The sound of a big boom was heard as the team saw Grinning Madness and Asura still duking it out. A right hook sent the beast backwards, the grin was off and a pissed off look was on its face now. Asura stood there menacingly as his red eyes was still glowing bright.

Grinning Madness lunged forward and threw a punch, John dodged to the right only to get kicked in the stomach, blasting him in a mountain. The beast tried to drop kick Asura but he caught its legs and with a huge groan slammed the beast in the rock face. Sounds of energy going down was heard as Asura was slowly starting to lose power.

"NO NO NO! I'M GOING TO KILL THIS BASTARD GIVE ME EVERYTHING YOU HAVE ASURA!" shouted John.

Everything went dark in cockpit and the lights went off.

"What? No! Did It lose power so quickly it just gave me the warning?" asked John flipping a few switches on and off.

An eerie chuckle was heard from the black void.

"Hello? Is the com's on?" said John.

"So you wish for more power yes?" asked a voice.

"Who are you?" asked John.

"Do you wish for power "the voice suddenly appeared right by his ear and a pair of arms snaked around his chest.

John felt the immense killing intent and fury from the thing holding him.

"Yes" said John softly.

"Very well but there is a price..." whispered the voice.

"What is it?" asked John.

"Your humanity..." said the voice.

Just as he said that a small behemoth appeared in front of him, it was Grinning Madness but in human size. When John saw it, he lost all control and went in a fury beating it and killing it in the end. The pilot was also battered and bruised causing his blood to drip on the black void.

John was panting and felt tired.

"Now aren't you hungry..." said the voice.

John looked down at the corpse of the behemoth and his mouth started to drool he went on his knees and with a shaky movement bit in the skin of the beast. In that one moment, Johns entire mind was clouded in gluttony, he ripped and tore off pieces of the beast as he devoured it.

"If one wants to make a wish with a Demon it shows that the Angels are the real evil, hypocrisy at its finest..." said the voice slowly caressing Johns head as he feasted.

Then the voice and image disappeared, John was bewildered at the hallucination he just had. It did however give him the power he needed.

The plate over Asura's mouth shifted downwards showing a black maw with steel teeth releasing steam. It's eyes also glowed more as red sparks jumped out of the corner of its eyes. At the dome it showed John's connection levels going past the red and exclamation marks are shown.

"He went into berserker mode... no wait this is more than berserker mode!!! Warn team Zero!" shouted the man.

Grinning Madness jumped back up and charged Asura only to get a fast fist in the stomach making it hunch over and spew orange blood. Asura didn't stop there and delivered nasty hooks to its face making it stagger backwards. When it tried to throw its own hook, it saw his arm wasn't there anymore and It was in Asura's mouth, he suddenly chomped down resulting in orange blood to drip off its maw.

It looked up only to see the robot disappeared, but suddenly noticed the sky was upside down with a loud crack as it showed Asura behind it, snapping its head completely upside down. Grinning Madness finally fell down. Team Zero was going to compliment John but suddenly heard a boom.

Asura's fist was smoking as it hit the beasts head. It didn't stop there though, John kept hitting its head over and over when the head snap already killed the beast, he kept butchering all the parts and bit any part that missed its massacre.

"Hey...John it's over" said Adam as he slowly approached the robot that was still beating the dead corpse.

When Asura stopped he looked at Adam, and he had to admit he was absolutely terrified at how Asura looked.

It was covered in orange blood and scratches all over it with dents as well. The horns on its head made it look as if it was a demon with the blood dripping down from its mouth.

The hand that John had been hitting the beast over and over was completely stripped of its finger plates and metal plates as it was only the metal frame showing that he didn't feel the pain of losing all those metal plates, in human biology it would be same as breaking all the bones in your hands and then go and hit something.

Asura only said one thing in a voice that sounded like two people talking at the same time.

"Kill..."

He slowly walked back to the dome, inside the cockpit it showed John bleeding from his nose and his hand was bleeding profusely as he panted hoarsely, yet his eyes were emotionless and he had an unnatural grin on his face...
