Author's Notes:

Pilot: Jessie Autenberg
Titan: E-O-2011 = Scorch Titan, Male A.I.

Crystal Golems:

"Everypony get back!" Limestone shouted as she ducked behind a cracked section of rocks.

A flurry of crystals shot out from the nearby Golems, the area filling with a maelstrom of crystals. Nearby Guards and soldiers were impaled and skewered by the hail of projectiles. Blood and gore coated the area with a crimson sheen as the earth pony grit her teeth. A few more seconds passed as the ground shook from the impacts of the crystals before stopping.

Limestone poked her head out of her cover and saw that everypony around her was torn and ripped apart by the attack, shredded into pony confetti as a group of Undead stormed forth. Behind Sombra's Undead were three Golems, charging at her position as they trampled over the corpses of her fellow soldiers.

'Not like this,' she thought to herself. 'Dear Celestia, I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to my sisters.'

"Limey!" a familiar voice shouted.

Limestone looked to the source of the outcry to see a pink blur slam into the side of a Golem.

"Pinkie!" Limestone called out.

Her sister pounded her hooves into the Golem, crushing and breaking the magical substance underneath her until it began to shatter and fall apart. The pink pony punched her way through the thick armor of the Golem and managed to find the glowing core of its being. She raised both of her forehooves and slammed them down as hard as she could.

The Golem buckled underneath its own weight as its source of power and thought was busted open, much like how one would stumble when their skull folds inward. Pinkie leaped off of the Golem and tumbled next to her sister, panting harshly. Limestone took a close look and saw that her sister's flat, long pink mane was singed and cut here and there, her face sporting fresh wounds.

"Pinkie, are you-"

"No time! We've gotta run!" she insisted.

Pinkie took two steps before crying in pain. Limestone caught her older sister and gasped when she saw that there was a massive gash underneath her barrel.

"Shit! You're bleeding out!"

"G-g-g... j-just, g-get out of here, Limey... I-I can-"

"Don't you dare finish that sentence!" Limestone grunted as she hefted Pinkie over her shoulder.

Limestone took a look behind her to see the Undead storming up to her across the terrain, more Golems converging on the two. Limestone hobbled forward, trying to gain distance on them, but the Undead were fast. She watched in horror as they prepared to pounce on her and her sister.

'Celestia, bring us an angel,' she prayed.

"Hostiles identified, engaging," a loud, deep monotone echoed.

Suddenly, as if Celestia herself were intervening, a wall of fire erupted between the Undead and Limestone. She could feel Pinkie shift on her back as the supposedly divine intervention set the Undead aflame, reducing them to ash in a near instant.

What came next shocked them beyond belief.

It stood taller than any of the Golems they had yet faced, and was far, far wider and bulkier than them. Its entire body was made out of metal, with a few small circular devices dotting its upper half. Its arms were covered in small circles that were glowing and smoking, and it hefted out what looked like a massive cannon. It was coated in red paint in a pattern similar to that of a tiger, and its upper section was painted with what looked to be a hateful demon.

That section then opened up with a hiss, revealing one of the strange creatures from the metal structure.

"Oi, get your asses out of here! I'll cover you!" she shouted.

"Hey!" another voice reverberated.

The metal behemoth and the smaller creature turned to face one of the Crystal Golems as its midsection opened up.

Limestone and Pinkie looked to see where the other voice had come from and blanched when they saw who it was.

"Oh stars, no, not him," Limestone pleaded.

Approaching in a bloodied Golem, was a grey pony with a red and black striped mane, sitting in the midsection of the crystal monster. He wore a cocky grin and a lust for murder in his eyes.

"It would appear that we have somepony to fight on an interesting level!" he said, the Golem raising its arms up as he did. "I'll admit, I've grown bored of squashing Celestia's foals like insects. Let's see what that hunk of junk can do compared to our Lord's magic?" he said as the Golem closed around him.

"Pffft, please. You wanna go toe-to-toe with the 6-4 in a rock?" the alien mocked. She craned her neck to the side as the metallic beast pointed a finger at the Golem. "Compared to what I've gone through in the last week, you're practically a day off," she said as the metal behemoth thrust a thumb down.

She fell into the metallic beast before it sealed her inside, Limestone turning to gallop before she could be caught in the crossfire.

'I really, REALLY hope these guys are on our side!'

Jessie was not having that good of a day so far.

She was almost nicked by one of the flying ones when they were fighting over the Charlatan, nearly trampled by the grey-armored ones when she went out into the field, and had to toss away her EPG when she ran out of ammo, resorting to a measly pistol.

Then, this rock-fucking quadruped thought it could shit-talk a Pilot of the 6-4, while she was in her Titan.

To say that she was a little ticked was like saying that her Titan was a little bit heavy.

"Alright, EO, let's show these bastards how we do," she said, cracking her knuckles as she linked to her Titan.

"Affirmative. Transferring controls to Pilot."

Jessie felt the familiar tingle of a link being established, and grinned as she flexed EO's arms instead of her own.

Bloodlust grinned to himself as the other Golems near him charged towards the alien Golem, readying their hammer-like arms as they prepared to tackle into the metallic thing.

The metal Golem brought up its left hand as the nearest Golem brought its arm down in a swing, and what happened caused Bloodlust to gape. A fiery aura manifested before the metal thing's hand, and vaporized the Golem's arm as it came down. The Golem stumbled forward as its weight was suddenly horribly off balance, the crystals on the end melting into plasma from the sudden shield. Next, the metallic Golem shot a knee forward to knock the Golem onto its back before pressing the shield into its midsection, melting the crystal away before its core was exposed to the super-heated shield, igniting the magical substance in an explosion that broke the magical Golem into shards.

The second Golem tried to duck down as it charged towards the alien Golem, intending to impale it on the massive spike on its back. Before it could take another step towards the alien, however, it leveled the cannon in its right hand at the Golem's legs and fired. A single object ejected from it and exploded underneath the charging Golem. The blast of flame eroded and melted the Golem's legs, leading to its tumble and crash into the dirt. The explosion lingered underneath it, melting through until its core was ignited as well, bursting underneath it.

Bloodlust looked to see the titanic metal beast turn its attention to him as it loaded in another shot into its cannon.

"You think you can dare to stand against Sombra!?" Bloodlust screamed, his voice echoing through the crystals into the world. "He is our one true overlord! And you will learn to respect him in all worlds!"

With that, he willed the crystals remaining from each Golem to go to him, shards of the untouched crystals floating over to his own before merging partially with its arms. He aimed them down at the alien before mentally commanding them to fly forward.

The alien Golem crouched as it raised its fiery shield once more, hunkering down as it tanked the hail of crystals that should have left it completely shredded. What was more, was that Bloodlust could see a series of minuscule hexagons fade in and out of reality around its chassis, protecting it further from harm.

When the barrage ended, the alien Golem stood up and threw its cannon onto the ground before jets of flame erupted from behind it, propelling the metal beast forward.

Acting purely on fear, Bloodlust willed the Golem to throw a punch, only for the metal one to turn its arm towards him. The underside, covered in small circles, began to glow with power, before breaking off his Golem's arm in one swing.

Bloodlust cried out in agony as he felt the magic feed directly into his nervous system burn away at his senses, before another swing burned his other arm off.

Sombra's loyal Golem Commander screamed in pain and fear as the metallic monster delivered two more punches to the crystal mass, burning away all of Bloodlust's protection.

The moment he was exposed to air, he could feel every hair on his body light aflame from the sheer heat of the metal beast's attacks. Wailing in pain, he looked up to see both of its arms come down on him.

\\\\\\//////

Limestone and Pinkie watched, with mixed emotions, as the metallic Golem slammed its arms down onto Bloodlust, burning the pony alive and melting the Golem with a final smash.

"Holy shit," Limestone muttered as she watched one of Equestria's greatest threats be pummeled to death.
