Hand Of Judgement

In this world, there were two types of soldiers: normal soldiers and Qi soldiers. Normal soldiers used a combination of Qi and weapons, balancing their abilities with technology. Qi soldiers, like Darius, focused primarily on mastering Qi techniques, using their profound control over energy to create and learn powerful attacks. Though they also used weapons, their true strength lay in their Qi abilities.

Thanos lay dazed for a moment, trying to regain his senses after being slammed into the building. He could hear the whirring of the mech's servos as it approached, and he knew he couldn't afford to stay down. Pushing himself up, he activated his gauntlets again, feeling the familiar hum of Qi energy course through them.Before he could make his next move, a figure dropped from the sky, landing with a resounding impact between Thanos and the mech. It was Darius, his aura blazing with intense Qi energy. He turned to Thanos, a fierce determination in his eyes.

"You can rest kid, let the adults handle this" Darius said, his voice steady and reassuring.

Thanos felt a surge of relief and nodded, taking a moment to catch his breath.

"It's string, can you take it?" Thanos asked worried.

"You know kid this is my city, I was born here . And I've got family here so I sure as hell ain't letting some giant robot mess it up for me." Darius faced the mech, his stance firm and unwavering. The mech paused, as if assessing the new threat.

Two more people dropped from the sky and landed beside Darius King. Thanos looked up and noticed a military issued helicopter.

One of the men had a big canon on his back, the gods know how he's able to carry that around. The other guy had a big double head axe. These were not rookies, these were the real deal.

"Alright Freddy, Mark, you guys ready?" Darius asked with a serious expression.

" Aim for the joints, try to focus your attack on a single point, alright let's move"

The mech's body shook and a big ass shield formed on its left hand and on its right was a huge sword. On its shoulders were blasters for plasma beams and lasers.

Its body jerked awake and it charged at them.

Freddy didn't wait for it to get closer, he set his canon on his shoulder and took his shot. A red beam shot towards the mech, and the mech reacted fast and blocked with its shield. While it was preoccupied Mark moved so fast Thanos could barely see him. Unrestricted by the weight of the axe, Mark jumped and struck the mech at the back of the knee causing it to stumble. Freddy seeing the opening took advantage and took another shot, this time hitting the mech squarely on the face with the beam, causing its face to be damaged and knocking it back.

Sensing it was about to fall, it struck it's sword in the ground trying to gain balance but, Mark was on it again, he pressed something on his axe and a grappler shot out of it and attached itself to the mech's neck. Mark was pulled up by the wire from his axe and landed on the back of the mech. The mech tried to reach into its back with a shield arm but another beam came at it from Freddy's canon and it was forced to block with its shield arm.

It was getting pushed back. It picked up its sword and chucked it at Freddy with such force that it caused disturbance in the wind.

Thanos was scared, because it didn't look like Freddy could dodge ontime. He was just about to yell, when someone appeared in front of Freddy. The person jumped up and performed a round house kick, knocking the sword away into a nearby building.

"D-Darius.." Thanos whispered, shock evident from his expression.

Not wasting time, mark infused Qi into his axe and it seemed to catch on fire, he swung down on the shoulder, breaking off the shield arm of the mech. The mech tried to grab at mark on his shoulder, but Mark did a back flip and landed down safely.

Darius took a stance moved his arms around in a circular motion, drawing Qi from his surroundings and from within his body, his body glowed with intensity as a great amount of Qi flowed through him and welled up in his hands. He extended his arm forward as though in a stopping motion and the massive energy the shape of a palm and the size of the mech flew towards it. The mech raised it's arms to guard against the attack, but the second the attack landed, sparks flew and BOOOM

a huge explosion took place.

Mark had already returned to Darius' side. Darius created a barrier made of Qi to shield them. Thanos was already at a safe distance from the explosion so he wasn't affected.

When the dust cleared Thanos' jaw dropped.

"Was... T-that was the hand of judgement!!!"

The mech lay on the ground, its armor charred and smoking from the explosion. Darius lowered his hands, his breathing steady despite the immense energy he had just expended. Freddy and Mark regrouped with him, their expressions a mix of exhaustion and triumph.

"That was... incredible," Thanos said, approaching them cautiously.

"I've never seen anything like it."Darius turned to him, a faint smile on his lips. "That's why we train, Thanos. To be ready for anything."Freddy grinned, slinging his massive cannon over his shoulder. "You did good, kid. Held your own until we got here. Not bad for a rookie."Mark nodded in agreement. "You've got potential. Keep working on your Qi control, and you'll be a force to be reckoned with."Thanos felt a swell of pride at their words. "Thank you. I still have a lot to learn."

"Don't we all," Darius said, clapping Thanos on the shoulder. "Now, let's secure the area and make sure there are no other threats."As they began to assess the damage and assist any remaining civilians, Thanos couldn't help but marvel at the teamwork and skill displayed by the Qi soldiers. He had seen firsthand the power of Qi techniques and understood why they were so highly revered.

And now a new goal is in his heart.

"I want to be a Qi soldier"
