Error. Error. Error. Er…

The Beast lunged suddenly. The warrior sidestepped the attack, and immediately rushed out of the blinding veil of light which had held him captive for so long. Placing his foot upon the back side of one of the rolling tires which supported the Beast’s enormous frame, he used its upward motion to aid him as he sprung, armor and all, into the air. From this leap he grabbed the side of the Beast, digging his fingers into metal crevices, grabbing pipes and fixtures which protruded from its massive frame as he scrambled, sword in hand, up the Beast’s towering body. In an instant he was atop the Beast, riding upon it even as it reeled around in search of him. Raising Deathbrand high above him, he thrust its gleaming tip down into the Beast’s head, burying the ancient blade all the way to the hilt. Sparks erupted from the blow, clattering noises thundered deep inside the Beast, and, with an electric crackle, its glowing Eyes went dark.

He pulled his sword forcefully out of the Beast’s head, and sheathed it. From a cone-shaped fixture at his feet, the Beast’s voice still hissed and screeched, “ERROR ZERO-ZERO-TWO: SYSTEMS OFFLINE. ACTIVATE REBOOT… ERROR ZERO-ZERO-ONE: REBOOT FAILURE… ERROR. ERROR. ERROR. ERROR.”

The warrior wrapped his hand around the hideous, blaring Voice Box at his feet and squeezed until in burst into shards. “ERROR. ERROR. ERROR. ER…”
