*the mech suddenly comes to life again, the pitch of the voice going much much deeper now*
Firmware update complete, tactical overlay online, all weapon systems, onliiii-ine.
*and slowly turns to the Avali*
Hostile detected...
*walks in place to fully face and raises the right arm with a repeating 80mm cannon*
Weapons free!

"Not today! Or any other one for that matter!"
*the Avali dives for Cover and pulls a plasma Gernade from its satchel*
"Bloody robots. One moment your friend, The other, it tires to kill you"

*the mech fires the weapon, heavy slugs capable of splitting trees twice a second. The aim is laughably bad though and it's not long before it speaks again*
W-W-Warning, reactor core exceeding safe operati- reactor core overheating
*the mech stops in its tracks and lowers it's weapon, the foliage around it starts to wither as it heats up. It attempts to pump coolant but the hose for it flails around in the back*
Alert *the voice takes a deep and dire tone* internal temperature approaching dangerous levels. Reactor approaching criticality threshold, meltdown estimated in 60 seconds
*the hydraulic system for the right arm blows as all the fluid fires out as steam, the mech limps forward with a few lines in the legs bursting too. The white paint starts to peel off and boil as the machine struggles to approach the nearest source of water. Things are going wrong and doing so fast*

"And now its the equivalent of a nuclear bomb. Wonderful."

Something white whooshes past the Avali as a blur, heading right for the mech. 

I am not having a nuclear firestorm today, the Jakkai, Gregor Ironback, thinks to himself as he rushes forward and leaps onto the chassis of the burning machine. The intense heat starts to sear his fur, but he appears undaunted as he reaches for the wildly flailing coolant tube.

After several attempts, he finally manages to grab it and insert it where it was supposed to go. "Phew... wait, what did that guy throw?" He quickly looks down at the mech's feet, and too late he sees the grenade. "...Oh."

*the chassis of the mech ruptures along a faultline with a bang and a fizzle, filling the air with a billowing cloud of steam and causing a dull blue glowing fog as it falls face down, the core melting it's way deep into the ground. Anyone even within 10 feet can feel a sudden flash of penetrating heat blow through them, whether it's actual heat or a psychosomatic reaction caused by realizing the terrifying consequences of being in the red zone of a meltdown*

Gregor is blown from the mech by the jet of scalding radioactive steam, and lands limply several yards away. His automated Guard distress beacon alerts the station of his critical condition.

*the signal wouldn't get far as some sort of jammer is active. A sharp mechanical hand appears out of a small stormy cloud grabs Gregor by the arm and starts dragging him off, and he too disappears as he's enveloped by a miniature grey stormcloud as well*

"This went from bad to worse real quickly. Is the risk of cancer worth it? Probably not... Screw it, I can't let the jakki die.
*The Avali straps on a crude re breather and plunges into the clouds, gun raised and poised to shoot.*
"I swear to god, if you don't release the jakki, I'll lob the faulty grenades around here  like there's no tomorrow, and burn this forest to the ground!"
