It seemed hopeless. Where Katya's thoughts as watched the gray mech keep its distant form her no matter how hard she tried to get in close. He left leg was simply to damaged and was slowing her down too much to allow her enough speed to get in close. To also make matter worse it seemed she couldn't even hit the thing with her rifle. But Katya wasn't going to give up she had already made up her min not matter what she would fight for as long as Caretaker still had the capacity to do so. But even that didn't stop her sync rate form dipping down as each shot missed or as her drone got torn to little pieces. This situation reminding Katya the first time she faced of against her instructor who also easily out maneuvered her attempts to attack him. 

When she saw what looked to be a large energy weapon on it shoulder starting to glow Katya was sure that any moment now this fight would be over although with her on the losing side. Sure enough a moment later the battle was over, but not in the way Katya was expecting. As the gray mech charged it weapon it was struck by the missile causing the weapon to overload. Anything beyond that Katya didn't see as the shock wave knocked Caretaker off its feet and destroyed her mechs left leg. Damaging the rest of the mech already battered armor to a circuital point. The forces of the shock wave threw Katya back in the cockpit, even as she tried to brace for impact the lose of the leg caused the mech to land on its right side and Katya to slam her head into a control panel. The young woman watching as her cockpit slipped into the darkness as the overseer of this mock battle shut her mech down remotely. As her systems went offline Katya slipped into unconscious. Uttering a weak thank you to her mech just as she passed out.
