Since you didnt even bother to read 1.) what I said 2.) what DP said in a PM and 3.) What my bio in my signature says, I'm not letting you off easy =] Heres my entry.
âCâmon, focusâ¦â
BLAM
And there goes the radiator. A huge cloud of smoke rises from the hood of the speeding Cavy convertible. Brand new, too. With a short yank the car is placed nicely on the side of the empty desert road. Not a house or 7-11 for 25 miles...
âDangit, whyâd you have to break down on me NOW?! Look around you man! Yea, thatâs right, NOTHINGNESS! My god, look at me talking to my car. Sunâs already getting to me.â
Our first victim is the young Raziel. Almost two meters tall making him impossible to miss in a crowd. Now Iâm suppose to go âOwh ow bad childhood always put down by parents, trained for life to get back at themâ bla bla cliché! So I wont. And hell he didnât. Just your average spirit seeing, parallel universe shifting, ghost sword wielding Joe.
Getting his head out of the hood of the car trying to look interesting but, since he has no mechanical skills what so ever, not really solving any problems, he leans against the side of the metal piece of trash and sighs to himself. He narrows his eyes and takes a good look at whatâs going to be his new home, so it seemed, for the next couple of months. âOhwell, no rent out hereâ he thought and smirked.
Then, out of the blue, a blue Ford van came from the exact opposite side of the road. Naturally, being the urban kind of guy that he is YoWerd, he stick up his thumb hoping for a ride home. Or at least till the next stop. Now if only he hadnât done thatâ¦
The van bulleted by his head going about 90, then got caught in a mad draft ending in the trench. Raziel, ready to start swearing for just flat-out ignoring the rules of the road, ran towards the crash site. There wasnât much left of the van, but the driver⦠far to intact.
âHoly mother of all things shiny , are you alright dude?!â Raziel yells while pulling open the side doors. âYes⦠Iâm quite alright now that Iâve found YOU!â The side doors blast open, along with Raziel in his presence. Raziel smacks on the tarmac and reaches for his back. âOw⦠that cant be good. Pain⦠world of pain.â
As the dust clears from the now completely trashed van, the evil do-er of this all emerges. Coming out blade first putting both feet on the ground looking down on Raziel.
âMy god, your in worse shape then I thought Raziel, where have you been training.â
Raziel, startled by this new supernatural appearance, crawls to his feet and takes a good look at what stands before him. Seems like he wasnât the only one with gifts. You could cut the epic-battle-waiting-to-happen tension with a knife.
âSpeaking of knifesâ Raziel said and looked to the side of his new found nemesis. âThatâs one hell of a big butter cutter you have there⦠Whereâd you get it?â âDoes that really matter? You should be more worried about how Iâm going to rip out your liver with itâ¦â Raziel grinned and looked into his foes eyes. âFOOL! I WILL CONSUME YOUR SOUL!â Raziel suddenly screams out. The arch-enemy recoils in horror, not having the slightest idea of what just happened. âHeh, just kidding.â Lord doom rises his eyebrow and returns to his natural heroic bad guy pose. âI will, however, stick you to my knifes.â Razielâs grin widens as he looks down to the ground and closes his eyes.
He stretches his arms out wide and out of thin air, two gigantic ethereal blades appear on both sides of his arms. As they drop down smoothly in his hands, Raziel opens his eyes again and busts out a small but oh so evil laugh. âYou didnât think not giving me a ride to Barstow was going to go down easy, did you?â
CLANG
Razielâs dash was lightening speed. Both the blades where deeply planted on his enemies blade. Raziel backs away again and relaxes. âWell, seeing as you made it through the first round and are still alive and didnât lose any limps and/or organs, you qualify for getting-to-know-your-baddy chapter 2, -His name-. So what, if I may be so bold in pausing this collision of might, is your name? Evil alias will do, as well.â âIts Xavier, a name you shouldnât forget for it will be the name you need to beg to just before I finish youâ¦â âYour one angry fellow arenât you? Meh, sâalright with me. Just know you have a shoulder to cry on if you need one!â âEnough of this bickering!â
Xabier lifts up his sword and marches towards Raziel. His hammer of justice strikes swiftly but just misses Raziel. As he dodges to the side and gets ready to counter attack, Xabier already unleashes another furies attack. Raziel can barely duck and summersaults backwards. âMy god this guy has it all. Speed and strength. I should have kept my mouth shut âbout the whole sticking on knife thing⦠Damn, why did my car just have to break down no-â
WOOSH
Xabierâs sword swing in front of the semi in thought Raziel catching him of guard completely and making him fly into the desert plains. Getting back on his feet takes a little bit more energy then before since now, well, he has one big bruise on the side of his body. But he can still cough it up, donât worry kids.
âWell that⦠Hurt⦠Which of course youâre pleased to hear.â âMuwhahahaha, yes I am pleased to see you in pain. A shame it wasnât enough to take you out once and for all. I have other things to do you knowâ¦â âOhyea? Like what?â
Raziel runs towards Xabier in a S pattern confusing his foe and tries to land one of the blades that have been re-summoned in Xabierâs face. Unfortunately, that didnât work out as planed. Xabier blocks the attack with his own sword and grins. âWell, thereâs this evil people convention I was heading towards before I bumped into you.â Xabier swings his blade to the side and barely misses Raziel. âOh really? They have those for you evil guys as well now?â Raziel lands on the ground after a few unsuccessful strikes on his target, turns around and stabs towards Xabier. âYou bet, weâve been showing those 14 year olds how to manipulate there superiors since 99â, Howâd you think MTV was made to what it is?â Xabier takes a step to the side to dodge the stabs and stumped then handle of his sword into Razielâs stomach. âOh you evil bastardâ¦â Raziel recoils and coughs a few times then stands up tall again⦠Only to duck back down to dodge Xabierâs bread knife. âChrist sake, would you give me a minute?!â Raziel whines out. âNoâ âFine!â
Raziel lands yet another effortless blow on Xabierâs blade and following the pattern of all epic battles, Xabier strikes back with might. âGothaâ¦â Raziel thinks.
Razielâs entire body turns into a grey dust figure as the blade passes right through him. âThe heck?â Xabier questions himself before getting a fist full of Raziel in the face. âBooya! Yeah, I got powers to you know!â
Xabier takes his sweet precious time to get himself up and running again, still recovering from this unforeseen blow to the yaw. Correcting his mouth and rubbing the deep red stain where Raziel hit to ease the pain, he gets angrier and angrier. The can almost see the burning flames inside of him⦠Untapped powers, to cruel for the world to ever seeâ¦
âOh crap⦠I didnât awake something inside of you, right? This whole âmystical power training with sholin monks for 25 yearsâ isnât going to happen, right?â
ââ¦â
âOh just greatsâ¦â
Raziel lifts his ethereal blades to guarding height and braces for the worstâ¦
