Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Nah... This thing is probably the biggest pain in the a**. Literally.))

"You didn't even listen." Edge grunted as she examined the size difference with some curiosity, before slowly sliding it in the back of her head like the previous.

Prepared now, Edge was less thrown into shock during the video. Though the images of death saddened her and she was thrown for a loop that Tango held a human name, none of that mattered to her. What held the most importance in her mind was the image of the reploid that had supposively attacked Tango. She wasn't original, she knew that. And that reploid looked exactly like her...

Where is he..? Edge wondered as the disc's video ended, and she 'awoke' to face the note in her face. She gave an unamused grunt, ripping off the note and briefly looking down at it's message. She scoffed at the writing and crumpled up the note, before tossing it absently. Edge had bigger things to tend to, things that came in the order of a third disc, which went into her head almost immediately after the second was taken out and stored away.

As the third video started, it began with a flashback. One of a man trying to defend a facility with a simple rifle against the Robot in the image in the last disc.

The date matched up with the very day Doctor Wily started one of his initial attack on Humanity. It was a soldier trying to fend off one of the Robot Masters: Metal Man, and being torn apart in retaliation..


Tango walked through a run-down facility with drive. He scowered through the rooms, not leaving anything to chance. He was not going to let the Robot escape. After twenty minutes of fruitless searching, he came to a locked door in the very back and kicked it down, Metal Man staring back at him, blades already drawn.

"What do you want?" he asked staring at Tango.

"You know DAMN WELL what." he growled, already rushing towards him.

The altercation between the two slightly resembled the fight between Edge and Tango, but with the roles of the hunter and the hunted reversed.

Metal Man seemed confused, and even a little scared of Tango as he ran away from him, using the corridors and rooms as cover as he made his way out of the facility and into the pouring rain. As he did so, Tango rammed through a wall, still hot on his tail.

Just like with their fight, it ended up in a dead-end alley, in which Metal Man had no choice but to fight.
Tango put his rifle away and retrieved the knife he had used on Dozer, staring down Metal man, who had brought out more saw blades.

The fight seemed even enough, neither of them delivering anything damaging for about five minutes, before Tango purposely took a hit to the chest, much like he did before, but instead of the arm getting stuck there, he grabbed the arm with one hand and used the knife to cut it off from the elbow, various liquids spraying everywhere.

This was a definite turning point in the fight. Metal Man stood little chance before, still using his original specs and fighting against Tango. But without the arm, he had lost all chance of victory. And Tango knew it as much as Metal Man did, already putting the knife away and beating the hell out of the Robot, to the point even the helmet had shattered.

The Beatdown continued for three minutes before Metal Man was thrown down into the mud, still alive, but in indescribable pain.
Tango walked over and picked him up by his armor and slamming him into the wall.
"What? Not able to fight like you could before?" he growled, glaring at the Robot.
"After all you did? What you took from me? All this time?" he asked, his grip tightening.
"ALL YOU CAN DO IS JUST SIT THERE AND ACT LIKE YOU DID NOTHING!?" he barked, raising his fist once more.

"The name Logan Williams. Ring any bells!?" he asked, shaking him, before Metal man stared back at him, barely even able to nod his head.

"Give me one GODDAMNED REASON I shouldn't set you on fire and watch you burn!" he commanded, his face now next to his.

"I...have...No reasons...." Metal Man wheezed in reply.

Tango just growled in reply, clearly not fine with that answer, cocking his arm back and swinging his fist at Metal Man, the fist stopping just an inch from his face. Another image flashed into Tango's vision. The woman and child from before.

It alone caused him to flinch back, dropping Metal Man who slipped out of consciousness.

"What have I become?" He asked aloud, staring down at Metal Man, as if pondering something. After a minute of thought, he began walking towards Metal Man again, the video starting to malfunction. The last feed was him picking him once more before the feed went black completely.

[ERROR]

[Disc Read: DAMAGED]

Apparently when Edge had thrown a blade into the container when she first met Tango, it came back to bite her in the a**....

_________

Once again, a new note was on her face.
'I SAID, get going!'


"Yeah, yeah, fine! Get going back!" Dozer responded, running through Alleyways as Prometheus chased behind him, running through the buildings...

Tango stared up at her, clearly weak from the previous altercation.
"How do you..?" he stopped asking, seeing the container.

"...I see...That means you saw everything else, too....."

"I'm surprised you are not talking about what happened before that." Tango replied simply.

"WELL THEN HURRY!" Dozer barked as Prometheus continued its rampage.
"THERE'S ONLY SO MANY BUILDINGS!!"

"Were I to tell you where he is, it would solve nothing..." Tango sighed.
"Just.....Forget about it......."

"You want to talk about standing in the way of family..?" Tango growled, a glare could be felt behind his helmet.
"Don't you even DARE act like you are someone to EVER say something like that to me."
