A compressed line of water blasted out of the dark alleyway, slicing through a wall like a hot knife through butter. "Ay the bloody 'ell away fro' me, ya damn 'astards!" Cybercroc hissed out.

The villain's mechanical parts strained from the effort he was putting it through, and he shoulder-rammed himself through the wall he cut into, breaking through it and rolling across the broken street of Oleander. A growl tore through the air as something massive came charging out of the alleyway, chasing him down seconds later. Myth was out for blood, swinging out with his claws and ripping one of the villain's robotic arms off.

"'ow dare ya, go n break ma stuff, ya think ya will, 'ell no one does and goes and 'reaks ma stuff but me-" Myth ignored the rambling cyborg and easily tore the hydro cannons off of Cybercroc's shoulders, destroying the villain's weapons. "Bloody 'ell!"

Cybercroc kicked up with his leg and smashed it into the jaw of Myth, but that barely caused the hero to flinch. Myth was already transformed into his lion mode, and the mad hero had been chasing his prey for over six hours, not once stopping. Most of Cybercroc's body was torn and mauled, oil and blood gushing out of cracks in the metal or scales. The fighting, however, was finally starting to reach its end. Cybercroc had nothing left to give.

Myth's teeth locked around the robotic leg that smashed into his jaw, and his lion head jerked back and forth, allowing him to easily rip it off in a single motion. Waves of black oil coated the ground, and Cybercroc crashed to the ground, missing both an arm and a leg. The cyborg kept muttering out nonsense in his weird accent and attempted to crawl away, but he didn't get very far before Myth struck once more.

Claws dug into the villain's back as Myth smashed his foot into the back of Cybercroc. Cybercroc let out another pained cry. It was the kind of noise a dying animal would make. Myth's foot stabbed down, the monster's toes digging into the robot's metallic back. Then he suddenly shifted and changed. In an instant, Myth had become a mighty bull-like beast, and with his enhanced weight, he stomped his hoofed foot down into the villain's back, snapping Cybercroc's spine.

Myth let out a snort of steam, and his eyes burned with fury. He spoke only a single word. "Yield."

Cybercroc struggled to lift his body. The street was filled with destroyed chunks of building, and rain poured down. The sky was black, making it hard to see, yet he could still make up the look of malice that was in the hero's eyes.

"Yield!" Myth yelled again in rage. "You attacked a hospital! One of the last hospitals! The only place people in this city could go for help during this time! All those supplies! Ruined! That building! Ruined! Those people that needed help! Dead! All because of you! Yield!"

"Nah." What was left of Cybercroc's back forced itself open, and a massive barrel expanded out. It glowed and spun, and Myth braced himself as a massive compressed beam of water rammed into his gut. The bull monster was thrown high into the air and crashed down into the street hard, shattering more of the street. Cybercroc dug his remaining leg into the ground and used what was left of his destroyed arm and good arm to jump forward in an effort to escape.

Myth stood back up, part of his costume tearing. Rain coated the bull's fur, and he wiped some blood away from his snout. "Sub Enforcers. To me." He hadn't come alone.

Wasps swirled around Cybercroc, and he felt them digging into parts of his body. The bugs were forcing their way into the metal and began to chew on the wires within him. He tried to activate his firewall but it failed. His site suddenly became filled with lines of code as someone began to rapidly hack his suit. A chibi form of Metal Ronin appeared in his vision. A He tried to claw at the wasps instead, but a silvery liquid metal pooled around him, and suddenly Cybercorc found himself totally bound and stuck in place. Then he felt a wave of intense pain as Oxide came down on him hard with a massive hammer. It smashed part of his skull open and shattered the computer in his brain, flooding his eyes with oil and blood. He jerked and screamed but couldn't move due to the metal. A sword found its way to his throat, and he glared up at the hero Metal Ronin, who stood before him.
