Shampoo pinched her nose and sighed in exasperation at Akane's recklessness (bordering on death-wish in this case) "Stupid fathers must have given stupid potion to pervert girl and now she suicidal..." Before Akane could deny this assumption, the amazon girl bashed her head with one of her bonboris "Now we get out of here before we killed by big lizard or giant golem !"
Ukyo nodded. She took Akane's limp body over her shoulder and the fiancees left the area as quickly as they could, trusting Ranma to stop Gojira's rampage. They also promised themselves to have a chat with Ranma concerning slave girls very soon.
*****
Ranma tried to dodge Sachiel/Gojira's jump attack but the Eva sacred armor followed his moves only sluggishly. Gojira crashed on the Eva and the two went sprawling in the streets, tearing buildings apart and sending debris flying.
Ranma gritted his teeth. Misato was right, he felt the pain of the Eva when it was hit as if it was his body who was struck ! He saw the monster open his maw right in front of his face, showing very sharp teeth and blue energy gathering before discharge *Oh hell...*
Instinctively, Ranma used his arms and legs to mimic a back roll throw. The Eva armor reproduced the move and freed itself of Gojira's grasp. The giant monster fell on the ground and released its radioactive breath, a good part of Osaka's harbour was destroyed and several secondary explosions spread fire and death in the city.
"Oh... my... god" Ranma was not a stranger to death, he had killed once, but to see so much people dying just like that...
Chibi-Misato looked sympathetically at her Sha'ir "Master... You must stay focused or all is lost ! If we don't stop Sachiel, more people will die !"
Ranma turned to see where his enemy had landed. Gojira was standing up and roaring in defiance, his spinal ridges glowing as he gathered energy for another shot. The young martial artist clenched his fists in anger.
"YOU... YOU BASTARD !" The Eva started running toward Gojira, making the Earth shake at each of his thunderous steps and its arms locked in a fighting stance. Gojira sent another radioactive breath attack but this time, the Eva's reaction time was better and Ranma narrowly dodged it. The energy blast only grazed its cape.
The Eva charged into Gojira and the impact sent the giant monster crashing into a building. Ranma wasn't finished however and started to pummel (in a slow giant robot way) the Fallen with punches and kicks. It was obviously feeling the pain of Ranma's attacks but wasn't looking worse for wear.
In a burst of speed someone wouldn't have expected from a creature this size, Gojira slipped through Ranma's guard and struck the Eva armor with its tail. The robot lost his balance and fell face first in a street.
Ranma grunted and tried to make the Eva stand up, too bad Gojira bull rushed it, sending it crashing back on the ground "Damn it ! Does this Eva thing have weapons ? We can't keep on going on like this !"
Chibi Misato floated to face him "The Eva sacred armor's capabilities depend directly on the genies bonded to the Sha'ir summoning it. Since I'm the only one for now, they're minimal at best"
Ranma sweatdropped then lost his cool "And you sent me into battle... IN THESE CONDITIONS !!?"
Misato huffed and crossed her arms "Well, excuse me but I thought it was best to stop the Fallen first ! And we're hardly defenceless !" She pointed to the purple crystal she came from "I'm the genie of Battle ! The Eva sacred armor has currently access to all its offensive capabilities and weapons. Touch the crystal and use your will to manifest them !"
Ranma grumbled and did as Misato told. The Eva jumped out of reach of Gojira and turned to face the monster, hands raised in the air. Two giant scimitars, reminding Ranma of the Gundam Sandrock's weapons (not that he watched Gundam Wing regularly, mind you...), appeared in a flash of light in the Eva's fists. In the 'cockpit', Ranma had human-scale copies of the blades in order to handle them correctly.
Ranma grinned. Now that was much better ! Gojira didn't look impressed and roared. The two titans were locked in a staring match, daring each other to attack first.
