Space, filled with stars. Galaxies and planets sweep by, then there is a flash and we find ourselves in a plane of red soup where moon-sized predators fill our ears with wailing. Another flash, and we briefly find ourselves in a vast city before hurtling through an asteroid belt. The bursts of light come faster and faster until we come to our final view.

Floating in a rainbow void is an asteroid upon which sits a great dome. We zoom in and see a smaller, translucent dome within it. As two men walk into this dome, the asteroid erupts with cheering.

"Welcome, fans, to the third Pan-Dimensional Tournament!"

OOC: Hope you don't mind me stealing your idea, Prime. Feel free to take over commentating. I'll introduce my character in a bit

The Geckonator strides out purposefully, an effect somewhat ruined by being several hundred feet shorter than the doorway. He waves to the crowd, and gets a few halfhearted cheers. His stance is open as he waits to meet his rival.

As Mechanomy! steps into the arena, its head cracks the archway through which it enters. Its steps thunder and shake the ground, causing minor earthquakes. With its focused attention on its opponent, the giant robot fails to notice the tremors causing spectators to fall off the wall and be summarily steamrolled by the giant Mecha.

As his foe enters the arena, The Geckonator's face pales.

"You have *got* to be kidding me. I'm fighting this thing?"

The doors behind him slam shut.

"I guess I am. Here goes... everything, I guess."

With that, The Geckonator tenses, ready to fight... or to run.

"Fighters Ready!
FIGHT!"

OOC: I'll be commentating this match

The Geckonator breaks into a sprint... toward Mechanomy! He keeps his eyes up, watching the many weapons pointed towards him.

The lights on Mechanomy!'s chest begin to illuminate in rapid patterns as a deep, echoing, metallic voice emanates from the Mecha's vocal production facilities.

TARGETING SYSTEMS: ONLINE
ACQUIRING TARGET: GECKONATOR
TARGET ACQUIRED!

The Geckonator continues his mad dash toward Mechanomy!, trying to get close enough that explosives would be a bad idea. With this in mind, he keeps on a straight path toward the mecha.

As its shoulder carapace opens, a gatling gun large enough to fire bullets the size of The Geckonator emerges.

COMMENCE FIRING SEQUENCE

The roar of bullets begins to dull the sounds of the cheering from the bystanders.

Callix · « **Reply #9 on:** November 07, 2008, 07:25:35 AM »

Fortunately for The Geckonator, when your bullets are as large as people, a machine gun's firing pattern leaves plenty of gaps. Through a combination of athleticism and dumb luck, The Geckonator manages to run, and occasionally jump, clear to Mechanomy!'s wheels. He grabs on to the side and begins to climb.

ANALYSIS: TARGET HAS ACQUIRED MELEE PROXIMITY
ACTION: BEGIN LUBRICATION SEQUENCE

With a loud whirl, a spray of oil, grease, and, other, unknown lubricants begins to pour out of Mechanomy!'s head, quickly covering the robot in the most slippery substance this side of TG's Slipper Plasmic Acid^TM.

Callix · « **Reply #11 on:** November 07, 2008, 07:49:25 PM »

The Geckonator quickly loses his grip and falls a short distance. He manages to land on his feet.

"Well, now, that just isn't sporting. Still, you gotta do what you gotta do."

He runs behind the mecha, looking for something to redress the odds.

ACTION: BEGIN TERMINATION SEQUENCE

With the gatling gun quickly retracting, Mechanomy! begins jumping, in an attempt to squish The Geckonator under the 250-story monstrosity of metal.

Callix · « **Reply #13 on:** November 08, 2008, 06:25:50 AM »

The Geckonator resumes running, this time zigzagging irregularly just in front of Mechanomy!

Furiously dodging the huge stomps, he makes his way to one of the still-standing sections of the arena wall.

AfterCrescent · « **Reply #14 on:** November 08, 2008, 10:08:58 PM »

As a cannon the size of the MIR space station opens on its chest, Mechanomy! turns to the arena wall.

ULTIMATUM: BYSTANDERS MUST EVACUATE OR BE DESTROYED IN 3...

Callix · « **Reply #15 on:** November 08, 2008, 10:50:08 PM »

The Geckonator suddenly notices the absence of earth-shaking stomps. He turns and sees what can only be described as a ridiculously large cannon pointed at it.

He takes a quick inventory of his surroundings. Wall... Rubble... 250-storey tall robot warrior...

"Ah, hell."

AfterCrescent · « **Reply #16 on:** November 09, 2008, 12:20:26 AM »

The cannon extends in what can only be described as the single largest phallic object in existance.

The Geckonator thinks about finding some cover, takes another look at the cannon, and decides not to bother.

"Note to self: do not confront giant mecha unarmed."

The cannon emits a flashing light of energy in an explosive display of destructive force.

[spoiler]Probably a good place for the commentator to describe the carnage to the arena/spectators.
