The glow of the saber eerily fills the room, giving Miroku back his vision. "Heh. Crap you surprised me. You've gotten a lot stronger than you were during our little altercation in your kitchen. But I can't say that you're bansaber is such a great idea. Sure it's one of your only chances against me, but I think you were better off in the dark." Miroku takes a step back and kicks the wall twice. A mechanical groan reverberates off the walls as one of them behind Deverz slides up. The room is dimly lit and rows of cages can be seen lining its walls.
"You see, not many people know truly what evil is. I can show you."
Deverz twirls the saber around, the hum rivaling the groan of the secret door. "Eh, you've got me to go through to get to that door. And trust me, there's no way that's going to happen." Deverz leaps forward swinging the saber over his head. Miroku sidesteps and attempts a powerful sidekick to Deverz kidneys, but Deverz gracefully spins to the side swinging the saber downward to Miroku's leg. Miroku withdraws his leg quickly, but the saber slices through the toe of his boot. Miroku, feeling a burning sensation, leaps back and takes a quick toe count. "All there but you did manage to singe my toenail. That's cool though, burnt toenail is one of the worst smells in the world." Miroku moonsaults back into action and lands on Deverz shoulders, wrapping his legs round the Dog of War's neck, feeling a few peculiar pricks along his inner thighs. Miroku arches his back and grabs onto the stair's railing. He pulls hard bringing Deverz up with him, and with a little flick of his hips, sends Deverz crashing into the low ceiling. Deverz skull hits with a sickening thud, and his limp body falls to the floor. Miroku swings off the rail somersaulting in mid-air, landing down on Deverz left shoulder with a crack. The saber retracts and the basement is lit only by the secret room.
"Get up Deverz. I know you're just playing dead."
Miroku gives the poor wretch a quick sharp kick to the ribs.
"Fine. I'll just let you lie there. Hmm...?" A twinkle coming from Deverz neck catches Miroku's eyes. Miroku reaches over and removes the spiked collar from Deverz. "That's what I felt poking me... I've always had an eye for shiny things. I'll put this on one of my pets as a reminder of you."
Miroku starts to make his way back up the stairs when he hears Deverz say with a deep voice, "You shouldn't have done that. That was the only thing keeping you alive."
Miroku twirls quickly around to see what the hell the delusional fool is talking about.
"You've unleashed the Dog of War." Deverz grunts with a throaty voice. Deverz stands up, a footprint still visible on his crushed shoulder. Deverz inhales deeply and his muscles bulge out a bit. His nose and mouth protrude from the rest of his face as thick brissly hair sprouts all over his body. His fingernails grow sharper and harder, gaining a few inches length. Sickening cracks can be heard all over his body as his bones grow, shrink, or change shape. His once crushed shoulder pops back into it's regular shape.
"There we go, this is what I'm talking about!" Miroku's glee is hardly contained and he flashes Deverz a toothy grin.
Deverz growls and leaps towards Miroku powerfully, but Miroku rolls underneath the beast's attack. Miroku springs up to his feet as Deverz leaps into the wall and jumps off it, pouncing towards Miroku a second time. Miroku rolls once again, this time to the left of the powerful tackle. Deverz hits the ground hard, minute cracks forming underneath his feat, but he is unnaffected by his own force. Deverz readies himself for another pounce as Miroku readies himself for another roll. Miroku eyes Deverz powerful leg muscles and the second he sees them tense up to pounce, he rolls again. But unfortunately for the evilly overpowered mod, Deverz was only feinting. Deverz smashes down on Miroku mid-roll, forcing him down onto the ground. Miroku's ribs crack as Deverz claws dig into his chest. Finding the space between Miroku's ribs perfect for grasping, Deverz clenches tightly then throws Miroku into the wall. With great speed the mighty dog drives Miroku farther into the wall with his shoulder before the mod can fall to the ground. Miroku gasps for air, but the Admin's shoulder prevents any from reaching his lungs. With lack of oxygen, Miroku feels himself fading from the world of concsiousness. Deverz feels Miroku go limp.
Deverz pulls away from the body and takes two steps backward. "Heh. Poor guy was surprised. Bet he didn't know that my title of 'Dog of War' was literal." Deverz walks over to the collar, but before he reaches it his enhanced hearing picks up a quick rustling noise. Deverz slowly turns to find Miroku standing by the open door.
"I did a little research at the hidden archives, Deverz. I've known long about your little secret. Which is why I've devised one of my most evil plans. Your sweat from your transformation has a very unique make up. Very easy to pick out if you've got the right equipment." Miroku walks into the room and throws a lever. All the cage doors open and thousands of tinny little fuzzballs with a metallic glitter coming from their backs spill onto the floor. "You see these little guys? Hamsters. See what they've got strapped to their backs? Lasers. I've genetically modified the hamsters to tune into your unique smell. That same smell is what the lasers guidance systems locks on to. Told you I was evil."
Deverz takes a step back as the little guys rush him, red beams burning into his skin. The smell of burnt hair and flesh fill up the room. "The lasers aren't powerful enough to kill you right away Mr. Dog, but given enough time they will kill you." Deverz becomes panicky, his body locking up in shock. How the hell could he manage to escape this predicament. Miroku looked onward as the Admin falls to the ground, covered by a tsunami of the hairballs. But the wave subsides and all the hamsters make their way back to the cages.
"Hmm... whats this? I didn't expect you to die that quickly." Miroku steps around the furry rush, so as not to make them angry, and makes his way to the fallen Admins body, reverted to its natural state. "Hmm... still breathing? Thats strange."
Miroku bends over to examine when he sees that the Admin managed to re-collar himself in time.
"Smart guy. The hamsters were attracted to your transformed state, so you made sure you weren't in that state."
Miroku walks to the wall and pushes the button that closes the door after all the hamsters are happily eating their pellets in the cages. Miroku pushes a button on his moderator badge. "Hey guys!!! Deverz has been attacked!! I found him here in my basement and he's pretty damaged!!! I'm afraid to move him so be sure to get some medical personel down here as soon as you can!!"
Miroku giggles and sits down on a box of old photo albums.
