"Hey, stop that!" Jaden cried, rushing forward. "People live in those, you metal dick!" He threw another first into Shrike's face, but before it connected, a bright light burst out of his hand and into his opponent.

Shrike had brought both arms, now augmented with extra layers of metal, up to block the punch, but the energy blast was unexpected. Shrike hadn't had time to root itself to the ground, so it was pushed, almost thrown back by the spontanious release of energy from Jaden. It looked pretty vulnerable for attack now that it's balance was thrown off.

Seeing the opportunity and not bothering to waste time wondering how the hell he did that, Jaden followed up his attack with a roundhouse kick to Shrikes skull.

Shrike stumbled and fell sideways across the block.

Moving quickly, Jaden crouched down next to Shrike, raised it's skeletal form up and twisting its thin right arm into a keylock, applying extra pressure on Shrike's elbow and shoulder, in an attempt to keep the beast pinned. "Okay, now I gotta find something to hold this thing 'til I can turn it over to the military." He glanced around. "I don't think they make handcuff in his size."

Shrike's metal arm simply seemed to be sucked into Shrike's body, ending the pin. Using the extra mass it had gained, it immediatelly projected several spikes from the right arm socket at Ultraman, who was crouched very close to the creature.

Jaden cried out, immediately scurrying away, clutching the wound in his right side. Idiot! I should have seen that coming. Carefully, removing his hand, he found several small puncture points in his armor. Something else caught his eye too. A small light in the center of his chest was beginning to flash.

Shrike did not pay attention to the glowing light. It walked forward as its arms began to reach out towards Jaden, now in a more tentacle-like form then they were before.

Jaden failed to notice Shrike's new ability right away. He was too distracted by the wound in his side and sudden blinking light on his chest. Finally, remembering he was supposed to be in a fight, he looked up. "Oh!"

Shrike's arms each wrapped around one of Jaden's arms, but Shrike went for an odd approach. It began to try to assimilate Jaden's metal armor into itself.

Jaden tugged at the restraints as a burn sensation crept up his arms. Trying to...suck me in...? The light on Jaden's chest flashed brighter and more urgent until the light became blinding and, in a flash, the towering metal form of Jaden had vanished!

Shrike scanned the surroundings for its foe, expecting it to still be in the area.

Jaden gritted his teeth and struggled with his restraints, eyes shut tight. Not gonna...absorb me..? It wasn't until that moment that he realized the burning sensation on his arms had faded. He eased one eye open and found himself standing well outside of the small town with the towering form of Shrike looming over it. He raised his hands to his eyes and found them to be metal free. Somehow, he'd changed back. "What the...?" He looked up at Shrike and dashed for cover, sprawling flat on his stomach behind a clump of wild bushes. Instantly, he regreted it. He drew in a sharp breath of air and caressed a hand to his abdomen. Something hot was oozing out of his side and stained his shirt. Blood. He was bleeding. "Oh shit," quickly rolling over onto his back, Jaden tugged his shirt up to inspect the injury and found several small puncture marks. The same place he was hit during the fight. "What's happening to me?"

Shrike, set on it's orders to purge the world of humans, began attacking the city. It pulled the metal supports from buildings, which then fell to the ground under their own weight, and used the absorbed mass to fire lances of metal towards moving targets.

Jaden gritted his teeth at the sight. "I have to do something." Again, he produced the strange capsule from his jacket but paused before using it. He gave Shrike another uneasy look and realized something... "It almost killed me..." He said aloud. Blood continued to stream out of his wound, despite the pressure he applied and he suddenly began to tremble, tho not from his injuries. It's killing people down there. I can't just sit here! Finally, he stood up (though still shaking like a leaf). Jaden raised the capsule into the air with his fingers poised over the triggers. "Showtime," He said with confidence he didn't feel, and pushed the buttons. What should have happened next was another flash of bright light and Jaden standing several meters in the air, ready to re-begin combat with Shrike. Instead, he was left standing next to a clump of dry bushes, underneath a dying tree. A tumble weed even blew across behind him. Nothing happened.
