Not in the face
Location: Washington D.C.
Still unfamiliar with his choice of power armor, Klein had requested a fellow law enforcement officer Grant Krauser to a sparring match. Unfortunately the last group to spar at the Washington D.C. training facility had rendered unusable for the foreseeable future. With that in mind Klein told Grant to meet him out back of the precinct for their match. Klein was the first to arrive after work and surveyed the scene. He noted what could be used for cover and escape routes in case things got heavy.
“I apologize for my lateness,” Grant said as he rolled up behind Klein and already in this advanced power armor. “It took longer than expected to lose the chief in order to do this.” Klein activated his power armor and the metal frame of the Victory Gundam HEXA quickly formed over his frame. The last part to be covered was Klein’s face as the helmet formed from several different parts.
“I understand,” Klein said as he performed last minute check over his power armor. “I am ready whenever you are.” Klein positioned himself waiting for Grant now.
“Just don’t hit me in the face, alright?” Grant said as he distanced himself from Klein.
“Sure and the same goes for me.” Klein said just before he grabbed hold of his beam rifle and brought it to bear. A quick squeeze of the trigger unleashed a particle beam that flew towards Grant. Somewhat caught off guard Grant is barely able to dodge the opening shot from Klein. Backing off, Grant unleashes several of his bits while taking aim with the Bertigo’s beam rifles mounted in the forearms. Klein immediately goes for the closest cover her could find and slides into it. Peering over the cover Klein takes aim and fires several more shots with the beam rifle at the Bertigo. Grant does his best to dodge the attacks but the narrowness of the alley prevents complete freedom of movement. One shot strikes the Bertigo in the chest and forces Grant to take a few steps back. Just as Klein is about to move to the next piece of cover he is struck in the back by a beam. Klein goes face first into the broken car he had used for cover. The dent is large enough that Klein must use his hands to free his head from the metal now in the shape of the Victory HEXA’s face.
“Ugh, my face…” Klein did not understand what happened but turned to see what attacked him. Hovering behind him was a small object. The beam saber in Klein’s power armor slides into his left hand and he swings at the object slicing it into two. Peering back Klein sees the next spot he has to get to in order to carry out his plan to get into melee range of the Bertigo. Moving was easy but just before he could setup and fire on the Bertigo again another beam strikes the Victory HEXA. This time the blast hits Klein in the arm holding the beam rifle and forces him to drop it. “Another one?” Klein uses his vulcans to bring down another floating object similar to the previous one.
“You do know I got like eight of those, right?” Grant replies back to Klein just as the others start to circle Klein and fire on him. The constant barrage forces Klein to fire wildly with his beam rifle and vulcans. Several of the Bertigo’s bits explode but not before giving damage in return. The barrage is enough to force Klein to the ground. Seeing Klein down, Grant goes in closer to see the results of his bits when Klein pushes against the ground with all his might and propels himself upwards. Still holding the beam rifle Klein takes aim and fires several shots at the Bertigo which attempts to evade only to be hit a couple of times. Grant opens fire with the beam rifles again and strikes the Victory HEXA’s beam shield. Which is much a surprise to Klein as it is to Grant. Recovering both Grant and Klein point their beam rifles at each other waiting to see who makes the next move. Suddenly their spar is brought to immediate close when several law enforcement vehicles and power armors descend upon them. The two immediately drop their weapons and hold up their arms in the air.
