The Incomplete World Of Elmore

Part 26

Super Fighting Robot Mega Breakman

Breaker locked the massive shield onto his back with a mechanical clunk, the polished surface catching the light like a war medal. His chest rose with a sharp inhale as his core surged to life—an audible hum rising in his ears like a war drum. Twin Gatling guns burst forth from his forearms with a hiss of compressed air, their barrels rotating faster and faster until the furious spin blurred into a single, whirling disc..

As guns roared to life, vomiting lead in a deafening, relentless storm. Each bullet cracked through the air like thunderclaps, splintering concrete and punching holes in everything unlucky enough to be in the line of fire. Elmore students scrambled in chaos, ducking, diving, and running for any form of cover: broken crates, a crumbled wall—anything that might shield them from the metallic rain. Dust filled the air, shouts and gasps swallowed by the roar of war.

Breaker's eyes locked forward, unfazed.

Ocho's voice rang out like a war cry. Four ghostly figures shimmered into existence at his side. He and Gumball charged together, flanked by the summoned spirits—blurs of motion cutting through smoke and ruin. Breaker's form flashed orange. A whir beneath his armor heralded the launch of small, spherical bombs that bounced once, twice—then erupted in violent flashes. The force of the explosions hurled Blinky and Pinky through the air like dolls, sending them into a heap of rubble. But Gumball and Ocho leapt high, dodging with fluid grace.

They were almost upon him.

In response, Breaker's armor flared red, and a surge of solar flame burst from his palms. The blaze struck the pair mid-air, sending them crashing to the ground in scorched agony.

From the side, William lunged. But Breaker shifted again, now glowing purple. A violet blur shot out—a baseball humming with kinetic force. It smashed into William's eye with a sickening crack, dropping him to his knees in a groan of pain.

Behind him, Aphrodite, Carrie, and Inky closed in. Breaker turned green and swept his arm outward. A cold mist shot from a hidden valve, freezing Inky and Aphrodite mid-stride in jagged ice. He twisted and slammed his boot against Aphrodite's chin—ice shattering, her body limp.

Carrie appeared afterward.

She lunged with ethereal grace, but Breaker had already turned yellow. A twin burst of dark clouds shot out, lightning spearing from their cores. Electricity coursed through Carrie's ghostly form, her scream audible through the crackling noise.

Breaker didn't rest.

Black armor now. He spun mid-turn and fired four spiked rubber wheels that ricocheted. One struck Darrel in the chest, flattening him to the ground, black tire marks burned into his shirt.

Carmen's hand ignited, and with a cry, she hurled a blazing fireball toward him. Breaker's armor turned ocean blue. A sphere of water burst to life, intercepting the flame with a hiss of steam. He countered, sending water bullets smashing into the cactus girl's chest, soaking and staggering.

Then came Clare.

He saw her—calm, focused.

With a pink shimmer, Breaker launched three silver-edged sword blades straight for her heart. She split—her body dividing into three perfect copies in a flash. The blades whistled past, missing by inches. Before she could reform, Breaker grabbed one of the bodies by the head. Her terrified eyes locked with his as his foot slammed her down, cracking the earth beneath her skull.

Then he feels a ton of bricks land on his back as he falls. Breaker looks to see William using his telekinesis with enough force to hold him down in place.
