-The smile gone from her face, Arioch watched the robot. Part of her was inclined to laugh, or kick the creature over. However, its size reminded her unnervingly of a certain Watcher cultist, and that sobered her up right away. The priestess' age had been a mask for her awesome power. And she, too, had rambled on about things nobody understood until the end.
-She thought to Undine and Salamander 'Better make it a double shield.' They affirmed, and the elf watched the robot, and the rift behind it, with increasing wariness.

-"Well damn, he just went off without me... ah well, Fallout will handle him." Now mumbling to himself "I'll just say he sneaked out, yeah, that'll work..."

-Butch was startled as he saw Matt flip into view. He had no idea where he came from, but whatever. His attention was more focused on the huge robot that just appeared out of nowhere. Butch got serious real quick and readied his weapons. Lifting his flamethrower up, he prepared for whatever the robot was gonna throw at 'em.

As the robot examined the party suddenly a large herd of survivors from the battle emerged from wreckage nearby yelling sounds of praise at their "heroes" rushing towards them with thanks... unfortunately the robot was in the way, and was small enough to be missed by the people, when it noticed their approach, it announced
"Warning, large mob of humanoids, threat level to this unit, viable, terminate." As it announced this the robot retracted one of its claws, as a device rolled out, a rotating cylinder belt fed by some strange looking purple crystals, as it slowly spun up the people suddenly noticed it and panicked attempting to flee again, however it was too late, as it began to unload its gunfire onto the crowd, slaughtering them methodically.

-"NO!" Butch yelled as he readied his chain gun. Using VATS he targeted the robot, made sure his accuracy was as high as it could be and unloaded all he could without hitting some of the crowd.

Butch's bullets struck the robot dead on, and it toppled over hitting the ground, allowing a majority of the crowd to escape, but as it sat itself up again it turned to the one who hit him.
"WARNING DEADLY FORCE AUTHORIZED, DEFENSIVE MEASURES ACTIVATED"
As the robot projected this, it's tiny claws lurched out and attacked to a nearby vehicle, drawing it closer, impressive considering its stature, then suddenly enveloped the vehicle with a strange blue plasma that seemingly melted the car from existence, however as it was assimilated the robot dropped to the ground, its spider like legs tucking under its body as it turned to treads similar to a tank, along with that, its spindly arms fully retracted allowing four weapon placements to be released, a mystery of the weapon's purpose, but they didn't look friendly, as it seemed to grow in stature while it transformed, its thin chassie thickened until it resembled a plate of steel, now twice as tall as any of the rest of us, it announced in a loud booming voice
"You are in defiance of Exploration law 2238, and shall be terminated hereby order of the over-mind."
As it said the Luke decided to take his shot, firing off slugs into the beast, the bullets hit their target, bouncing off its chassie leaving dents which, in moments, had been fixed staring down at Butch and Luke with glaring red eyes.

-Arioch's eyes widened. 'Exploration law 2238? Overmind?' This was not good.
-But it was a machine, was it not? Spotting a gap in the outer casing, Arioch sent a torrent of water into the innerworkings of this new adversary.
-Then, for good measure, she froze the water- and hence, the inner workings of the robot.
-"Chill, my metal friend. Chill" she said, but she did not yet chance a smile.

-After sitting around for a few more minutes Noven was incredibly bored, and figured he'd just go join up with them and hope there was some fun left to be had.
-As Noven went through the teleporter and arrived, his first sight was the slaughtered innocents, and immediately yelled out "THE FUCK!?"

"Where's Fallout?" Charon asked Fawkes, "He went through the teleporter a while ago, said he had some good news to give to the crew." "Well I need to ask him something, wanna come with me?" Charon asked, "I do not see why I cannot, yes I think I will." The two went through the teleporter and were greeted by a pile of dead mutants. "What the Hell did you do this time?!" Charon shouted at Fallout.

The massive mechanical being halted for a moment at Arioch's attack, the insides indeed freezing, before the beast announced
"T-Tempreture R--reading below Optim-mal levels, heating initialized."
As it said this the beast seemed to glow red for a moment, regaining its full movement once more, facing the one who froze it.
"Humanoid, you are are in violation of the over-mind, relinquish your weapons immediately and your end shall be swift."
As the being roared forth it fired plasma shots at Arioch, while missing a majority of them, one did burn her foot, as it did the purple crystal weapon from before reappeared, assaulting Butch and Luke, attempting to pierce them with the weapon, as its trends grinned to life.
Luke called out
"Shit! Move now!" he said as he dive rolled towards Arioch, as he made his way over to her
"Are you alright!?" As he asked, Luke turned to the beast, taking hold of his arm, as the pistol glowed a deep blue, finally unleashing the blast as it hit the robot square in the chest, the steel seemed to sear off, revealing what seemed to be its innards, gears and other such colorful things were present now open to the party.

*Matt sprang into action pulling out his anti matrael rifle and aiming for the gap in the robot, he then fired several incendiary rounds into that area as fast as a bolt action rifle could allow.* "Ok Arioch you know what to do! If you can." *Matt ran around the robot at near impossible speeds and entered cloaking in hopes that it would lose track of him.*

Nodding, Arioch performed the same trick as before. The incendary rounds exploded inside the metal beast with full force and fury.

The robot does indeed lose track of Matt, however the explosion rocks its core, suddenly a large, spinning core is revealed, it seems to be a ball of blue light suspended in a field. With the explosion causing severe damage the mechanical beast turned to Luke and Arioch and began firing a series of plasma rounds, needle shots, heavy mass explosions all heavily denting the ground, throwing Luke and Arioch to the side, burning them. As it does it continues to shout as if a broken record
"T-Terminate h-h-humano-oid threat, must make world safe for over-mind" It calls as the treads seem to be unable to hold its weight, collapsing, leaving it immobile, but still very dangerous.
Luke turns around, his side aching, as he aims Omega at the beast once more, clicking the trigger as he softly whispers "Omega..." firing off a large burst attack, the shot hitting the core, and as it starts to spin faster, it appears to be overheating

Fallout jumped down and walked to the thing. "Listen up you sac of ass! This is MY planet! I worked hard to try and get it where it is and nobody, and I mean NOBODY is taking it from me!!!" He then looked at Charon, "Lift him up!" Charon lifted the robot up with his telekinesis. Fallout then let out a primal roar and slammed his fist as hard as he could into the thing, sending the whole thing right back through the portal.
