Schweebler vs. Antibot
Backstage:
"So, Joe" said Dren "What makes you think that this spider type thing has
any kind of chance at all against Antibot?"
"Well, Dren, nice suit by the way, did you get it from McKenzies?, the
Schweebler has quite an impressive array of weaponary, Observe" said Joe.
A small man was walking past when Joe pressed one of his red buttons, a bean
bag shot out of one of the cannons and hit the man squarely in the chest, he
flew back 12 foot into a wall and slumped unconcious on the floor, Keto ran
up to him with ointment #64828 (smelling salts) and revived him.
"Oops" said Joe "anyway, it can run and jump and if things get desparate can
kick with the strength of a small seaside donkey, and there's a little
suprise for anyone who destroys it"
"Which is"asked Dren
"HA...i'm not gonna tell you that"
"Oh well, good luck then, i believe you are up next" said Dren.

The Arena:
Joe Schweeble and Chris Zodar took up there places above the arena in the
isolation booths. The Schweebler and Antibot sat in the arena staring each
other out, the blue and green LED's on the Schweeblers head blinking
threateningly.
"3....2....1....Activate" cried Lister.
The Schweebler and Antibot charged at each other, just as they were about
collide the Schweebler leapt 6 foot into the air and landed behind Antibot.
Joe quickly tapped one of the red buttons on his controller a couple of
times (he'd put labels on them now so that he wouldn't make the mistake he
made when testing it)and two bean bags shot out of the accelerator cannons
and smashed into Antibot, Antibot went flying into one of the CPZ's, Shunt
(if that's the one with the axe, i con't remember) bought his axe down on
Antibot and the axe just shattered. Antibot came out of the CPZ and moved
into position infront of the Schweebler. Just before the match Joe had
given the Schweebler a coat of "Ronseal: Fire-Protecting Varnish for Robots"
(which does exactly what it says in the tin) but that didn't offer any
protection against the incredible burst of heat that came from Antibot.
There was a loud squishy sounding explosion as the Schweebler's failsafe
kicked in (i'll get to hat in a minute)just before the Schweebler became a
pool of molten metal on the floor, all that was left of the Schweebler was a
twitching scutter hand/head.
The failsafe (I think Smegg was the only person who knew about this)was
designed to denonate all remaining glue grenades at once (20 of them).
The whole arena and crowd got covered with extremely sticky glue (sorry
anybody in the crowd but your'e kinda stuck,the competitors were safe in
there isolation booths.
Dr Keto, who was on call in case of any emergencies, quickly ran round the
crowd and arena spraying everything with the ointment he had used to help
Joe out of a similar problem.
"Don't worry everyone" said Keto "The paralysis will wear off in a few
hours" (sorry again, to anyone in the crowd but you are now parylised from
the waist down ~bwahahahahaha~)
"So Joe, you didn't do too well this time" said Lister "What went wrong?"
"Well, as you can see the Schweebler is ermmm, well, kinda liquefied, but
i'll be back next year with the Schweebler II"
"And Chris, your'e through to the next round, How do you feel"asked Lister.
"Smeggin' brilliant, i didn't doubt my robot for a minute" said Chris.
