FROZEN CONFRONTATIONS
The Blue scourge begins its journey to their final showdown with the fallen angel. An all too familiar voice echoing out in the frozen wasteland.
“Machine… There is nothing left for you here. Your kind has blazed through the pits of this forsaken place in its crusade for further sustenance. Only shadows and the wind remain.
Come forth for our final dance…
Either way we both will meet the reaper very soon. The only question is who will they pick up first…”
The False angel of death makes its way forward toward its greatest rival traversing the frozen wasteland of ice and snow with a series of slides, jumps, dashes and rocket riding towards the final fatal confrontation with the defunct Judge Of Hell.
An armored paladin stands in a frozen field awaiting the Supreme Machine. Their blue and gold glass adjacent wings shimmer like panes of stained glass in the freezing cold air that surrounds them, his halo faded from his prolonged severance from the Fathers light.
Nothing is said as the Machine stops before the mellowed out Apostate Of Hate. He remained silent, the winds of treachery billowing through the arena. Slowly he turns to face the man-made mockery of his kind’s form before slowly drawing Justice and Splendor to be washed in the blood of his adversary one last time uttering a single word to the Machine.
“Ready?”
The machine simply responded by reaching back towards one of its own wings and with a small flash of light procuring a beat up electronic revolver, the battery spinning up with a blue energy being emitted from the end of the barrel.
GABRIEL,Fallen Angel
Gabriel makes the first move making a swift jab with justice, The Machine quickly maneuvering out of the way of the blade, Moving quickly he teleports beside the metal man making a downward strike with splendor this time finding its mark and creating a deep cut in the blue plating of his adversary its wound quickly weeping pulses of crimson red.
The machine responds quickly firing off the charged shot from its revolver, the hyper accelerated microscopic flakes of metal drilling into the armor and flesh of Gabriel spilling his blood its spray landing onto the machine the crimson stain of his life force quickly disappearing on the blue plating of the machine its plating now shifting covering up the cut made by Gabriel replacing the damaged armor with new plating.
The Machine quickly reaches back and replaces its revolver with a shotgun quickly firing superheated slag towards the angel punching the projectile as soon as it leaves the barrel with its left blue arm, the slag exploding on impact with the angel, before Gabriel can respond the Machine flicks a coin into the air and fires a shot from their revolver the shot reflecting off of the coin instantly colliding with Gabriel’s head.
CHAOTIC
+ RICOSHOT x1
+ QUICKDRAW
+ PROJECTILE BOOST
Gabriel quickly responds to the assault with a sudden lunge forward attempting to drive both blades through the core of the wretched machine forcing the machine to dash backwards onto one of the many sheets of ice that cover the wasteland The creature of steel skidding across the ice. Gabriel teleports again quickly creating a javelin of light and hurling it towards the machine.
The child of man quickly punches the javelin with its left blue arm redirecting the rapidly destabilizing javelin of light back towards Gabriel missing him and blowing up a distant rock
Replacing its revolver with a strange looking piece of equipment looking like a jackhammer with a chainsaw attached quickly dashing and jumping at gabriel thrusting the jackhammer towards the angel and releasing the metal plate the force of the impact sending the Blood fueled Nikon flying in the opposite direction
ANARCHIC
+ BLASTING AWAY
+ PARRY
+ RICOSHOT x1
+ QUICKDRAW
Gabriel recovers and teleports to the machine to close the distance swinging down with both Justice and splendor the strike landing on the back of the machine causing considerable damage and changing its trajectory causing the machine to crash downwards into the ground it landing on its feet and sliding out of the way of Gabriel who is now holding another javelin of light and is rapidly approaching the ground stabbing where the machine once was
The machine punches Gabriel with its clawed bulky red arm resting just below the blue one causing Gabriel to cough up a small amount of blood trickling onto the machine’s plating and quickly being absorbed into it. The Blood fueled horror then replaces its jackhammer now emitting steam from the intense impact from earlier pulling out the beat up revolver and charging a shot firing directly into Gabriel’s head drilling into him and showering The machine in blood
SUPREME
+ HEADSHOT COMBO X4
+ DISRESPECT
+ RICOSHOT x1
+ QUICKDRAW
The wings on Gabriel's back shatter for a moment making him fall to the ground--before quickly reforming and allowing him to fly once again
“I thought you could fight harder than that”
Gabriel's voice descends into laughter after he speaks
The golden glow on the tips of his blue wings only seems to expand as the fight continues betraying his true emotions while he once had denied it
He enjoyed the fire just as much as the machine did fighting an adversary that was skilled as him was thrilling. It doesn't matter if he loses and dies in the end, all that matters is to continue to chase the fire.
Unknown to both beings forces from outside their reality watch on with enjoyment,with a smirk and a flick of her wrist a gap opens above both combatants and falls over them sending them to the land of illusions without either of them noticing both of them too engrossed in their fight to care about the sudden change in scenery or shift in temperature.
The machine quickly jumps upwards towards the taunting angel pulling out a railcannon that glows red and hums with an intimidating energy.
Gabriel sensing the incoming danger barely manages to dodge out of the way of the beam, the lethal red streak continuing onwards until colliding with an igloo obliterating it in an explosion and causing a mighty fairy of frost to seethe in anger.
The irate Ice Fairy quickly approaches the two beings locked in lethal combat and starts yelling at them.
“Hey you idiots! You realize how long it took me to craft that masterpiece of a house?!?”
Neither Gabriel nor the machine seems to notice the Fairy, both of them not clocking her as a substantial threat to them to warrant any attention in the fight, she might as well be a wayward gust of wind to them.
“Not talking huh? You both must be utterly terrified about angering the mighty Cirno! Grovel on your knees and I'll think about forgiving you for your transgressions!”
Again both combatants ignore her.
“H-Hey! I’m talking to you idiots!... Fine i guess I’ll just have to display some of my mighty power to get both of your attention”
Ice begins to encase the feet of the machine and hands of the angel both not noticing the build up of frost as their movements instantly shatters the ice produced by the Strongest Fairy.
Gabriel suddenly swipes downward again with Justice and Splendor causing the machine to react and slide out of the way of the incoming strike with the ice fairy being directly in the path
SSADISTIC
+ ROADKILL
+ A TRAINED
+ HEADSHOT COMBO X4
+ DISRESPECT
The fairy is instantly obliterated like a watermelon trying to challenge a 18 wheeler to a game of chicken instantly liquifying upon contact with the machine and being absorbed into the plating, the damaged areas of the machine barely reacting to the intake of the Mighty Fairy, both combatants continue as if nothing had happened at all.
The machine starts spinning its revolver ready to shoot at Gabriel once again before a commanding voice yells out from above both the angel and Go Pro, both beings actually registering the voice and looking above.
“Yo! You guys aren't followin the spell card rules. You two better wrap this up before something serious happens! And we can’t be having that now can we Da Ze!☆”
