Kaizen, Collette and Steph had been allowed some time to plan their attacks before the fight- and when the cages opened the three girls charged out, desperate to get the upper hand.<br/><br/>But if they expected their opponent to go down easily they were sorely mistaken.<br/><br/>Kaizen charged across the ground swinging her metal bar at Nova 7's chest-  she had clearly been in a lot of fights, her movements were confident and sure.  Planting her feet securely she swung hard...<br/><br/>Collette dashed forward- her supple body throwing her into a high level attack aimed at Nova's head.  Her spiked club glistened in the light as it descended towards the metal warrior's cranium...<br/><br/>Steph- less confident at first, dashed out and lashed out her chain.  The strong links looped around Nova's knees.  She yanked it back to draw it tight and ensnare the mighty battle machine...<br/><br/>Nova reacted with blinding speed.  He kicked up one leg out of the chain, and as Kaizen and Collette launched their attacks, he drove it with crushing force into Kaizen's belly.<br/><br/>The young woman was thrown back off her feet- to impact heavily with the floor a few metres away- but not before she'd driven her own blow home.<br/><br/>The metal pipe swang in towards Nova's chest- but his arm was already rising to block it. With smooth, mechanical ease he deflected the pipe.  It glanced off his chest plate scratching the paint but little more.<br/><br/>Nova's arm continued to rise- blocking the head blow from Collette- again he took negligible damage.<br/>Collette cursed and prepared another strike- but Nova swang his own stun baton.  The young woman barely had time to gasp when the electric discharge pumped into her head.  She sagged to the floor- dropping her spiked club.  She would be inert during the following round- and unable to act but she would swiftly recover.  The controllers of the arena wanted to give the women a sporting chance.<br/><br/><br/>Steph meanwhile had wrapped the chain around her fist and snuck un under Nova's guard.  She swang her chain hard into Nova's abdomen.  The force of the blow caught him awkwardly and the android staggered, tripped over Collettes body and crashed to the floor.<br/><br/>Steph gave a whoop of triumph and leapt forward to attack...
