Getting An Upgrade MKIV

In the year 4533 society reached the peak in medical science and body manipulation through biological and technological means. It's been used in tons of different ways to help the planet and humans evolve, and it has several ways that are kind of meaningless, like entertainment.

That's where I come in. You see, I live in the underworld, which is just the name for the surface of the world now since most people live in floating cities above the earth. Down here, there aren't many jobs for us, so most of us participate in the fighting arenas.

I had high hopes that the last tournament would have ended with me reclaiming my title as champion, I mean my MKIII body was mostly robotic and it was incredibly powerful and had a ton of tech that hadn’t been seen in the area before.

I was able to fly around and shoot incredibly powerful blasts that destroyed and melted armor, I had super strength and speed, and without the limits of exhaustion. Even my teammates for training couldn't keep up and were begging for similar upgrades.

I was top tier again, and leagues above everyone. I had my confidence back and I was burning with passion waiting to get back into the ring. At the next tournament, I had the crowd cheering for me again as I obliterated opponent after opponent.

I went right to the finals and was once again met with my biggest rival, this time though was comply different. Usually, this guy is a messy amalgamation of junk and looked like a dirty barbian, but now he was comply different.

From his lower jaw to his toes were completely replaced by super high-tech prosthetics, ones that seemed identical to mine. Instead of two spiked balls for hands, he now had a chain coming out of the palm of his hand with a spiked ball attached to the other end.

His other hand had nothing in it, but it did have a similar hole to mine that opened up to shoot blasts. Much like me, he had new reinforced steel plates covering his body, but unlike mine, his were three times thicker, and wouldn’t melt like the others I’d fought until now.

It was strange, all his upgrades seemed just like mine, but better. The match started and he immediately raised his empty hand. I got a bad feeling and took off into the air, then a split second later the entire arena burst due to an explosion.

I was hit with the impact and shot into the sky. The viewer stands where he had been sitting had been completely destroyed some people had died, and others were injured and trying to get away. I was almost shaking while flying above him.

His blasts were so much stronger than mine. He had blasted not only through the stands but through the top-of-the-line safety shield that was supposed to nullify all types of attacks and damage, which was in place to keep people safe.

He was still looking at me and was preparing to shoot another blast as I sat there frozen. The match ended early due to the incident and I was brought back to our team's facilities, that’s when all hell broke loose.

It turned out the spiky guy's team had stolen our team’s tech and improved it for their fighter. So while we thought we had the upper hand, they were cheating and they had the upper hand. My team's leader tried to get them disqualified but it didn’t work.

The fans were excited for the final, and as soon as a safer arena is made, I’ll be going up against that monster again. I met with the scientist and told them there was no way I could win, and they agreed saying they had a few plans for upgrades, but they knew how I felt about them.

I told them I’d take any upgrades they had, I didn’t care what. Then they got to work. They created a full-body robotic suit for me. It would be nearly a hundred percent robotic expected one part, my brain.

My brain would be transplanted into this new metal body so I could pilot it. Doing so would eliminate any interference between my commands and when my body takes action. I’ll be faster and stronger. They also made the body with one of the strongest metals on our planet. TGeriam.

The day came when they completed it and I was put under to undergo operation. When I woke up I was standing in front of the team with everyone amazed. I looked over my new body and wasn’t at all surprised they made it female.

After waking up and doing a few tests, I was sent to the medical tent so they could attach an artificial face and wig so the audience would recognize me. Then I began the toughest training I had undergone since starting in the area as a child.

My new body aced every test and challenge and was so advanced the team was even talking about selling the design to the intergalactic space force, but their being able to sell it depended on whether I finally won and beat my rival.

They did tell me this was likely the last chance as funding was running out. If that happens the team will disband and head back to the capital and I’ll not only be stuck in this female robot body, my contract will be sold off to the highest bidder.

So this is my last chance to win and go to the overworld and make myself a new male human body. If I lose and end up on another team, they might not keep that same deal. So I’ll never get another chance to return to normal, and I’ll be a sexy female robot fighter forever.
