Steel Waste Chapter 504

[Mr X]
Health : 99%
...
"Fuck!" Afton groans at the sight of its health... Just as he sees this the flesh on Mr X's chest quickly begins to writhe and heal.
Gabe finally springs into action however, despite Mr X's size Gabe was still bigger than it, allowing the Cyberdog to leap and try to bite the creature's head off... Only for Mr X to block with his forearm!
Gabe bites down on the extended arm and begins thrashing from side to side in an attempt to tear it off. Blood spurts from the lacerations caused by Gabe, but Mr X doesn't even blink at it, instead just raising its Super Sledge and slamming it into Gabe's side. It strikes the Cyberdog's metal leg, causing sparks to skitter away as Gabe is launched a few meters from the sheer force of the strike.
Veronica looks as if she wants to punch the shit out of the creature, but Afton commands her to stay away from it. Even with her Power armour, he doubted she'd survive a single head-on strike from it. The sheer force it was able to exert with the Super Sledge alone was ridiculous... This could be seen by how mangled Gabe's leg looked.
Gabe could barely stand on it, meaning he was out of commission while Afton Veronica, and Boone tried to kill it.
Mr X picks up the wreckage of a ruined pre-war vehicle and throws it towards them. Veronic and Afton dive out of the way which inadvertently allows the makeshift projectile to hit the Bisen Steve Hotel, this causes a small part of the building to collapse and there was nothing either of the duo could do about it.
Mr X finally reaches the stage and makes an easy jump onto of it... However, Afton was already ready and waiting with his Ultra Chainsword... He springs into action with the blade already revved, swinging it at Mr X's arm that was holding the Super Sledge.

*SHWING!*
*THUMP!*
Mr X attempts to block the attack with his weapon, but the Ultra Chainsword easily cuts through the Super Sledge handle, continuing on and severing the creature's arm which drops unceremoniously to the floor.
Afton would have thought Mr X would be stunned by the fact it'd literally just lost an arm, but he was terribly mistaken as the creature's other arm reaches out and grabs him by the neck, lifting him high into the air while attempting to crush his throat.
Before he can sever the other arm with his sword, Veronica charges into Mr X's side while delivering many heavy punches with her Two Step Goodbye fist weapon. The arm-mounted shotgun fires debilitating shots into Mr X's chest, ribs, and stomach, but the creature doesn't even flinch.
Instead, Mr X swings Afton at Veronica, smacking her with him and causing both of them to fly down the street. Most people would instantly die if they were used as a make-shift weapon against someone wearing Power armour, but Afton had thicker skin than most... Not to mention his regenerative abilities healed most of his injuries fairly quickly.
[Grit is in effect]
While Veronica was recovering, Afton revs his Chainsword against and swings it despite being far out of range... However, the arm holding the sword extending like a whip, allowing the Chainsword to slash through Mr X's chest, cutting a huge wound into its chest... Afton could even see the creature's punctured lungs through the cavity, showing just how much damage he'd caused...
Yet...
[Mr X]
Health : 98%
"This is bullshi!"
Mr X bends down to jump off of the stage, but another projectile comes from nowhere and barely hits it... Due to its change in position the projectile only manages to blow off its hat, Jason mask, and a large part of its face...

Obviously, its injury heals fairly quickly, but once it does both Afton and Veronica gape at what they see...
"Dad!?" Afton exclaims, thoroughly confused and incredibly angry.
Indeed, the creature's face looked almost identical to Zachary Parker... It was as if Zach had been blown up like a balloon though, like his size certainly wasn't natural. Afton is so stunned by this revelation he stops considering this a combat situation entirely... This forces Veronica to slam a fist into his shoulder to get his head back in the game. "WE'RE STILL FIGHTING IF YOU HAVENT NOTICED!?" she shouts and is forced to duck as Mr X picks up what is left of his Super Sledge and throws it at them.
It misses and smacks a building down the street, blasting a good amount of concrete from it.
Afton quickly shakes his head and focuses on the enemy, knowing exactly what he had to do at this moment... He charges towards his father with his Chainsword revving, ducking under the punch it sends his way and swiping his sword at its legs, severing them both and causing Mr X to fall onto his chest.
Continuing his momentum, he severs the other arm as well as the half-grown one he'd severed earlier. "Nyx? Did you get the coordinates of the stage?" he asks.
"I did sir! It's ready to go!"
Afton nods and quickly picks up Mr X, tossing his torso onto the stage while grabbing Gabe and carrying the Cyberdog. Veronica follows, and once everyone was on the stage a lightning bolt strikes their position, teleporting them all to Big Mt.
Boone releases a big sigh and deactivates his Railgun, truth be told it was significantly harder to use than any other weapon he'd had before... Yet the power it had was unforgettable. He unloads it and throws it onto his back while standing from their position.
"What do you think that thing was?" Josie asks from the side, both having closely observed the trail of destruction the thing had left.
Boone shrugs, "Whatever it was, I hope there aren't any more of them running around... I'd class it as an army killer... Without Afton's tech I doubt we'd be able to permanently put it out of commission..." he says, tapping the Railgun with a finger. He gestures for her to follow him, "Come on, our job's not done yet... We need to check the occupants of that van, whoever they are can't be left alone to make more of those monsters." he states, marching down the steep hill with Josie quickly following.
