Unfortunately for Zein, the blast had not missed, just as Mark predicted. The splash from the dark energy explosion obliterated the surrounding virtual flora and stone, and of course, hit the cybernetic bid that was hiding in the midst. The result was not good: the cloaking device had been disabled, likely broken, and the raptor's left arm had been blown right off, leaving him with only his dysfunctional one; many pieces of armor have also been removed and both eye-lenses were cracked, though thankfully still glowed with life.
Zein may have been arrogant, but he was certainly not an idiot. The raptor knew very well that he was finished, considering that he had little to no ideas left and was contorted with injury. Terrified with the thought of "dying", he lashed out one last time, weakly raising back onto his feet and opening his mouth. A electric blue glow emitted from the inside of his throat, almost like a dragon, and out came a charge of bristling lightning that lit up the surrounding crater. This was obviously a last resort, considering how dangerous the move was to his systems. After all, it wasn't like Zein could use his arms anymore.
But, of course, this attack didn't come without a toll. Excessive use of lightning would always backfire on the person considering that he was part machine, and both cybernetics and lightning didn't exactly go well together. After releasing his charge, Zein toppled over onto his back with a harsh metal 'thud', and began to twitch with leftover electricity. Unless a miracle happened (which it probably won't XD), he was going to die.
