With one final scream of effort, Leo drove the gear into the droid's central processor unit located at the base of the skull.
The red eye flickered.

The droid froze. Then, slowly, it toppled forward, face-planting into the oil.
Silence fell over the Scrapyard.
Then, Torque started clapping. His hydraulic claw made a deafening CLACK-CLACK-CLACK sound.
"Winner!" Torque shouted. "The Big Man stays!"
Leo stood over the fallen machine, chest heaving, blood dripping from his ribs and hand. He looked up at Torque’s box. He didn't smile. He stared with the cold fury of a predator.
