Singed hadn’t observed the herald enough to realize that he did carried his equipment with him he had just assumed that most of his equipment like his death ray were part of him. “Well you learn something new every day” he thought while the herald pointed his mistake it didn’t mattered the now bestial girl had liberated herself and had his attention put on him. “Come liberate your full savagery against me” He said while lifting his shield and taking a pose were he protected most of his body and occulted his left hand. "I have some time to waste, so let’s play your game” he added.
Although he was heavily unarmed, the Machine Herald wasn't at all useless. He had just his arm, yes, but he also had the full power that coursed through his hextech replacement parts. Fortunately, the girl no longer deemed him a threat and had instead turned her focus entirely on Singed. She would soon come to regret that, as if anything it was Viktor himself who was more of a threat to her, and he was about to show her why.
"Singed, I am going to attempt to render her unconscious. Be prepared in case it fails, as I've no doubt that in such a case I may very well come to grievous harm!"
Viktor's voice carried well enough to Singed despite its rather low volume. Arcane energy then began to crackle around his left hand as he raised it to his side, before the Herald rushed towards the girl who was trying to break free of the adhesive. He ran with all the speed he could muster as he extended the three-fingered hand forward, planting it right on the girl's chest and proceeding to pump a large degree of voltage into the girl's body. The Machine Herald hoped it would be enough to simply knock her out, but he wasn't certain if it would work.

[glow=purple,2,300]The adhesive snaps away from her leg, unbalanced she steadies herself... Unprepared for the assault from the seemingly unthreatening metal creature... She realises her mistake to late, he was not to be trusted. She feels her limbs go numb, the few machine parts in her going crazy at the sudden burst of electricity, her legs kick off from the ground to get away, but the damage was done....She was moving through the air... her limbs now completely numb, she had no control....
She crashes into the wall of the warehouse, her body easily smashing through the tin wall onto the concrete pavement outside. She lay limp for a few moment... Her mind registering what had just happened... The metal creature had... used some kind of force to paralyse her... If she had been human, it would have easily knocked her out. It seemed her metalic chitin like claws, tail and bladed tendrils had conducted the energy spreading it through-out her body causing complete loss of control of her limbs. She struggles to stand.... The metalic man had not been seen as a threat, she had considered trying to speak with him. But he had betrayed her. Attacked her.

Singed lost no time in taking advantage of the situation hex immediately threw a flash granade to the girl after she blew through the wall. The grenade exploded not liberating metal and fire but light and sound. The light was blinding but singed covered his eyes and the sound would disrupt the workings of the inner ear, making anyone on the proximity of the explosion lose their sense of equilibrium.
Viktor hadn't intended to kill or otherwise irreversibly harm the girl, as he still saw a great deal of potential in her. However, his action would no doubt label him a threat to her and she would not show him any mercy. There was no time to worry about such a thing, though, as he fell to one knee, his artificial limbs crackling and shaking slightly. He had put a great deal of his internal power to that one jolt he had wanted to incapacitate her, and now he would need a moment for them to resume functionality.
The commotion would of been unnoticed by the void if not for the machine girl. The tissue she was infused with made her a target..and this activation caught the voids attention. Such a creature could not remain outside the void....Cho'Gath knew this.
Before Amelia could strike down the Herald,If she went for him, a rift tore open knocking them both further away. It shimmered with the unmistakable glow of the Void within, growing greater in size with every passing second. Once it had grown large enough...a red foot stepped out, followed by half of Cho'Gaths body. His red carapace unmistakeable to those who have seen the void champion. He forced the rest of his form through, breaking the room to accommodate his size if necessary.
He flashed a look around at the three that resided in the room. Singed the chemist, Viktor the machine herald, and that girl. He growled at Amelia. " You belong...to the void."

[glow=purple,2,300]Amelia finally gets the use of her legs back... Only to have her eyes blinded and her ears start screaming with pain, she drops once more clutching the side of her head covering her ears. She begins screaming, the sound piercing slicing through the air like a knife. She stops suddenly, something... Familiar calls to her... Not a physical feeling or mental... It was an odd alien feeling compelling her to move without question... She forces her eyes open to look upon the monsterious form of Cho'gath, this image extremely blurry, her ears still ringing she couldn't hear him... Not with her ears anyway. But she more felt what it was saying. She belonged somewhere else, not here on this plan of existance....
She cringed, her mind torn confused as to what was going on, one moment pain... she eliminates the one who brought her the pain... She then speaks to the metal man... Another comes... Aggression... Numbness... Blind and deaf... And now... Something was calling to her...
The predator's grasp was slipping on the mind, not that it knew that...[/glow]
In the time it took for Viktor's devices to recover from the surge of power he'd used, something even worse than the girl herself made its way to this warehouse - something that few wanted to have to face off the Fields of Justice. The Machine Herald watched as a rift manifested itself into the facility, growing larger and larger with each second until it was large enough to accommodate the sheer bulk of what came through it. The unmistakable red limb revealed its owner's identity all too quickly as it left the portal, followed all too soon by the rest of the fearsome creature's form.
Cho'Gath, the Terror of the Void, had appeared before them. Viktor had heard rumors that the massive Void beast had somehow escaped from his chamber in the Institute, but he never believed he would ever have to see the behemoth in person outside of the Fields. The thing was massive, with powers that could overwhelm most average individuals. However, Viktor wasn't average. He, too, was a Champion of the League, and even as he knelt he did so only because his systems had yet to fully recover. Hearing the beast's proclamation, aimed at the girl, Viktor's mind urged his devices to hasten their start up. He had to buy time.
"No! I will not allow you to have her, Cho'Gath!"
The words left his mouth from behind his mask, his voice devoid of its usual synthetic alteration due to the shut down. He had spoken through sheer force of will, as otherwise the mere presence of Cho'Gath wold have left him incapable of speaking.
Amelia would feel a presence flood her mind. It called to her. Beckoned that she join with it, her place was with it. It was hypnotizing listening to it. It had corrupted those before her...except the one who resisted. He would fall before it like all those who resist. It called to the girl, the portal shimmering before her.
Cho'Gath heard the weakened voice behind him, he turned to face the machine herald on his knees, he dares to speak? The terror mocked him with a laugh. Viktor will do NOTHING to hinder my goal. The metal man looked pitiful down on his knees, it is right that he be afraid of the Terror of the Void.
"It is right that you submit to me..." He teased at Viktor. The Herald would gain nothing today, his goal was the girl. The other two were just minor annoyances to be crushed at a later time.
"She is mine." and he turned away from Viktor, ignoring the machine herald altogether. He started shuffling his way towards Amelia, kicking wreckage and knocking more of the roofing down. His pincers snapped, eager to grab the girl when in range.
There it was! As Cho'Gath was reveling in his seeming victory, Viktor's hextech devices kicked into life and he found himself able to move once again. He didn't not waste the opportunity he had, as the Terror of the Void had his back turned. The Herald didn't like to use such dirty tactics, but there was a lot to gain from this. So without hesitation, Viktor rushed at the Void beast and tackled it, knowing that the momentum would at least have enough strength to knock the creature off of its feet. After all, if 300+ pounds of solid steel struck your at 20 miles per hour, would you not be affected?
"I said...."
While Viktor was still in direct contact with Cho'Gath, he activated his most dire power and called forth his ULTIMATE weapon at point blank range - the Chaos Storm materialized directly above the two of them, though only one would be unaffected by its pure, unfiltered arcane power. This singularity was the culmination of all of Viktor's research, all of his work, all of the hours he spent studying and experimenting, and tweaking, and rebuilding. The Chaos Storm was formidable enough on the Fields, but its true power was far beyond that in this case. Not only was it more powerful, but the crackles of energy it gave off would even be enough to cause the Terror of the Void serious pain! And best of all, it would last for a full six minutes!

A purple flash followed by minuscule ball of white light. The ball pusles and waves, and then explodes, creating a pitch-black portal inside a purple ring. Said portal spat Kassadin out and then collapsed onto itself, disappearing from sight. The Voidwalker took a quick look around to assess the situation. Singed and Viktor could take care of Cho'Gath, if only for a small amount of time. He turned his attention to Amelia.
You! He pointed his blade at her. Do not listen to them! If you let it take over, there will be no turning back. Your will must remain strong, or you will become nothing but a mindless puppet. Kassadin's glowing eyes fixated on Amelia's. It seemed as if he was staring into her very soul.

Cho'Gath was swept off his feet by the unexpected tackle from Viktor, the momentum carrying them forward. The terror made contact, facefirst, with the ground, cracking the concrete with his weight. How dare this machine nterfere with the voids plan..he will be consumed. Cho'Gath began to force himself up, growling in annoyance. " YOU WILL DIE, VIKTOR." He roared to the room.
Then, a storm crackling with pure energy appeared above them. Cho'Gath knew this to be Chaos Storm, Viktors Ultimate. Pain coursed through the terrors form as the storm began to periodically release energy, off the fields its affects were excruciating. Cho'Gath roared, infuriated with the machine herald. He angled himself back and jumped, Viktor would be crushed under him when they make contact with the floor. His attention was focused on Viktor, he did not even notice kass enter the fray.

Taking advantage of the confusion Singed tackled Cho’gat on the side before making contact with Viktor. The momentum was not as big as with the herald, but he had calculated the angle of the tackle in order to deflect the Void’s titan jump just enough for him to not crush the metallic man. “Hey mutated lobster do you like acid?” he said before throwing a glass full hydrochloric acid that was laying on the floor probably left behind by one of the many scientists that were planning something “funny” for the auction.
Cho'Gath felt another tackle into him, propelling him to the side..but away from the storm though allowing the Machine Herald to not be squished. The terror made contact with the ground on his side and roared at the Chemist, starting to get back up now that the pure energy was away.
The Singed threw acid at him..the burning was nothing compared to the cloud. Void creatures adapt acid, this was nothing compared to their acid. He laughed at Singed.
" This is what you call pain? I will show you terror." he taunted, making sure to back away from the cloud now that it was further away.
The Machine Herald found himself moving haplessly through the air, as the Terror of the Void had decided to attempt to crush him under its sheer bulk. Fortunately for him, however, Singed had tackled the beast from the Void and saved Viktor from being crushed to death. And while the two Zaunites were dealing with Cho'Gath, Kassadin was trying to get through to the augmented girl's humanity.
Having been laid out on the floor from the Void beast's attempt to flatten him, Viktor took a bit longer than he would have liked to roll over and get back to his feet. He didn't look at all dignified as he pushed himself off the floor, but fortunately nobody around would really care. The Chaos Storm, as powerful as it was, wasn't large enough to engulf the entire area but its size was manageable enough for Viktor to assume some influence on its trajectory. Now back to standing erect, the Machine Herald motioned with his left arm to remotely direct the storm to move to where Cho'Gath had just gotten back on his own legs.
"Singed, do you have any equipment I can use for the time being?"
He didn't have any other devices with him aside from his mechanical arm, mounted on his pauldron, but his pride wasn't so much that he wouldn't make use of whatever he possibly could. Besides that, the Terror of the Void's mere presence threatened to put a significant black mark on the reputation of the two Zaunites who were present and attempting to remedy the situation.
