Broken hunger

To Oblivion you whisper as a taunt, while you searching for your explosives.

Your grenades are made from unique materials. You have named them, Nahas. A ferocious innovation that launches a herd of voracious nanites that can chew skin, flesh and viscera until only the skeleton remains without destroying the nearby technology.
It is extremely useful, but it has a catch. The nanites can't trespass electric fields and that includes energy shields. So, if you want to use them, the enemy can't be protected by a shield and sadly, you can see the subtle halo of one surrounding your rival mecha armour.

Meanwhile, the fight is fast and furious, You have an advantage at close range, but the superior agility of his armour compensate the battle. You swing your vibroblade at blinding speed damaging his energetic protection gradually.

However, your body aches and your muscles are numb. You haven't slept in at least two days, You won't be able to keep up with this pace any longer.

This has to end now.

There's part of a girder collapsed in the middle of an adjacent corridor; soon, a plan starts to form in your own head. Why don't just lure your rival near that area, and then force him to crash over the fallen pillar? it has to be enough to break down the shields during enough time to use one of your Nahas.

Meanwhile, the fight keeps going, with both of you barely have enough stamina left to stab in each other armour.

You find it hilarious and start laughing at it like a mad person. You feel like your own sanity is fading away from your extenuated body.

Thankfully, the tides of the battle make your rival get close to the damn girder. It is the last effort. you mumble for yourself lost in your own fatigue and barely in the real world.

You prepare your extra propulsors and just empty your waning stamina in the last charge;
it all happened in a blurring instant for you. Your body is struggling on autopilot mode. But somehow, The Kraken ends crashing at high-velocity smashing his hull and letting an open path to your grenade.

You don't launch more than one; there is no need for more. Because when it impacts the black nanites' swarm. The victim destiny is already sealed as nothing organic could survive the swarm.

You could run away from the grotesque scene, but somehow you feel compelled to stand there glancing the macabre spectacle.

The inevitable screams are almost instantaneous. Soon after, the real nanites strike commences, as the grey slimy octopus' skin glitters, shifting in a myriad of cool patterns until all of it vanishes in a rain of blood. Now the shouting skinless victim unearths his muscles underneath throbbing, tingling and trembling like the jellied eyes of a putrid fish.

The shouting ultimately ceases, as his vocal cords are devoured by the frenzied swarm which moves around the skinless body back and forwards violently. The flesh just disappears in front of your eyes, until the skull and bones plummet down from the rest of the Phantom mecha.

You stumbled upon your knees exhausted. Incapable of maintaining your eyes peeled. And then you fall into a black nightmare.
