As Morgan stood on the edge of the tallest building she could find, she held out a golden coin. The etching of a dragon engraved into it seemed to look back at her.

Morgan: Nothing wrong with the phoenix, but nothing beats using your own.

With an excited glint in her eyes, Morgan spread her arms out wide and leaned forward, letting herself fall off the edge of the rooftop. She couldn't help but laugh as she fell, finally understanding why someone close to her loved doing this so much.

Morgan: Hehehehe! I get why you like this so much now! Access link, go!

In a flash of light, Morgan was gone. In her place, was a dragon mech like they'd expected to see way back when Mix first used his coin. As it spread its wings and slowed its fall to land on the ground, it turned towards the massive goat man and roars, spreading out its wings as it does so.

The dragon in question was mostly white, and it's wings had a variety of colors. Red, green, blue, and brown. As the massive creation had hit the ground, everything in the area shook, getting everyone's attention for at least a moment. The roar though had finally gotten Steve and Milim to look.

Milim: Huh? Ohhh.. Another one of those robot things. Maaaybe I'll stay back for a bit then.

As Milim flew off a safe distance away, Steve growled at this new opponent.

Morgan: Heh. Wanna fight something more you're size?

The phoenix mech wasn't technically supposed to be used by Morgan. It belonged to a different Guardian. This dragon however, was hers. And it was designed to be perfect for her. Steve seemed to accept this dragon's challenge as he started walking towards it and away from everyone fighting on the ground.

Morgan: That's right, come this way. Come see what we can do!

Walking soon turned to charging as Steve, or rather The Gleam Eyes held his sword high and headed right for Morgan and her new ally. As he reached them, he roared as his blade came crashing down. The dragon lifted its head, looking up at the sword. It growled loudly as the ground around them rumbled yet again. Except this time, it moved. Large pillars of stone quickly rose up, one on either side of the dragon. They crashed into the incoming weapon and knocked it back.

Morgan grinned as she waved her arms about, orchestrating the dragon's movements, as well as its attacks.

The dragon beat its wings as it shot itself backwards and up into the air. As it did, the ground all around Steve froze, turning to ice that climbed his legs as if it were alive. Steve seemed caught off guard as the ice froze him to the ground. He swung at it, trying to hack it off with his giant sword but that ice was faster, always recovering and spreading faster than he could strike. In under a minute the ice had him trapped up to his chest.

Morgan: Gotcha!

It was pretty well known at this point that Morgan's greatest ability was her use of element-based magic. And just as the gear she wore to battle did, the Elemental Dragon was built to amplify her magical abilities. Just to a mech level scale, this time.

Opening its metal jaws, the dragon seemed to build up a roar as electricity began rapidly growing and crackling within its mouth. Letting out the massive roar, it shot a beam of blinding lightning from its mouth. The beam ripped through the air and struck Steve square in the chest. He roared out in pain, but in the end it didn't seem to do more than blacken the fur on his chest from the heat. Angry, Steve tensed up and managed to brute force his legs free from the ice. It didn't grow back this time as Morgan wasn't controlling it anymore. As he knocked the remaining ice loose off his body, the dragon started to fly circles around him from afar. He watched, unsure what Morgan was up to.

Morgan: That's right.. just stay still, you big goat.

While it looked like the dragon was just circling, Morgan was actually hard at work casting a massive attack, as well as just a few smaller ones.

After a couple circling, sparks began to kindle around Steve. Sparks turned to red hot flames as a blazing tornado soon shot up around him. It quickly tightened in on him, trapping him in flames. He reached out to put his free hand through it, but immediately pulled back as the flames almost immediately burned through his fur. His fingers were singed pitched black now like the spot on his chest.

Morgan: Nice, he's stuck. Now to cut him up!

Morgan then activated the second part of her attack, which was over a hundred air slashes positioned all around her opponent. Just a few, right?

Morgan: Take this!

She fired them all off and they shot forward into the tornado of flames. They cut right through, hitting the goat man inside and also sending the flames at him. They all cut through and struck flesh, one after the other as Steve could do nothing but stand and take it. When they had all hit their target, the tornado broke apart, and Steve fell to his knees. He had slashes all over his body, blue blood dripping from his wounds. The dragon hovered near him as he seemed to be incapacitated.

Morgan: I haven't gotten to do something like that in quite a while. Felt pretty good.

As the dragon began charging up another lightning roar to finish Steve off, he rose his head and glared right at the dragon, now in striking range. He reached out and grabbed the dragon by its neck.

Morgan: Oh. Shi-

He roared out loudly before running forward, pushing the dragon down through the ground in front of him as he went. After a while, he lifted the dragon up, only to throw it into a building a ways away.

Morgan: AGH!

She went flying into a wall inside the dragon as it crashed into the building, bringing the whole thing down on top of itself.

Morgan: Ugggh.. That was far less than ideal..

Standing slowly, Morgan made her way over to the control panel.

Morgan: C'mon buddy, get up. We're not done yet.

The dragon tried to get back in the air, but all the ruble from the building was pinning it down. And Steve was headed right for her.

Morgan: Damn it!

Frantically hitting a series of buttons, she opened a window to her right. The name "Tina Sprout" appeared in the top left corner of the screen.

Tina: Are you alright, Morgan?

Her voice came through the screen as Morgan sighed with relief that the dragon's communications system hadn't been damaged.

Morgan: I'm stuck over here. Steve's a lot tougher than I assumed he was.

Tina: Need backup?

Morgan: Heh. It'd be appreciated to say the least.

Tina: Understood. We'll be on our way.

Clicking "end call" on her phone, Tina spread her wings and descended to the ground to get Ty. Together, they'd be Morgan's backup. They'd need to move fast though, as Steve was surely about to beat Morgan's dragon to a pulp.
