Brawl

Ryu's POV

"If you're going to fight me, fight me like a true man." said Aiden

"Sure why not." I said

I dropped my sword and Aneko's hatchet and started running towards Aiden. He ran towards me as well and I got ready to hit him. I slid on the ground and tried to kick his legs but Aiden jumped over me avoiding my attack. I got up and did a spinning hook as he approached me but he leaned back so I went after him by doing a triple front kick all in the air. I was able to hit him with the last kick so I went after and threw a couple punches but he jumped back and kicked my chest with both of his feet while doing a backflip.

He rushed towards me and he was fast, I lost sight of him and he was able to do a windmill kick hitting my face. I began to attack faster, anticipating his moves but Aiden was skilled. He was able to block most of my punches. I tried to uppercut him but he punched that hand and the ground shattered underneath us. We both did a spinning hook kick, both of our heels hit each other and the ground exploded underneath us.

I tried to punch Aiden but he hit the arm I punched him with and hits that arm twice making it weak. I grit my teeth in pain and Aiden starts attacking me so I held my hands up to protect my face. I saw an opening so I grabbed one of Aiden's arms and uppercut his stomach then his chin. I back kicked him hitting his chest and he stumbled back a bit so I ran to him but he did a backflip getting away from me and then he summoned three clones and they started attacking me.

The first clone did a superman punch but I grabbed his arm and his neck and threw him over me, slamming him into the ground then stomped on his head killing him. The next two started throwing punches on both sides so I grabbed both of their arms and yanked them down forcing them to lower their heads. I used that as an advantage and did a split kick and one of the clones' head exploded. The last one ran to me but I went in close to him and grabbed his pants and his shirt and threw him over me and slammed his head into the ground exploding both his head and the ground.

"Using your cheap tricks." I commented, "Come on."

Aiden growled in anger and we charged at each other and began to throw punches. To be honest, we were so fast I couldn't catch myself so he did a spinning hook kick that sent me tumbling on the ground. Aiden jumps up into the air and drop kicks me but I dodge it just in time but the ground explodes and the impact sends me flying away.

"Not so tough are you?" mocked Aiden

I was pissed, I got up and stormed at him. We began trading blows, hitting each other, blocking each other's attacks. But then Aiden hits my jaw so hard I stumble back and Aiden takes that advantage and summons a small dagger and starts swinging it at me. I lean back and I back flip kick his hand and the knife spins in the air above me. I jumped off of Aiden towards the knife while kicking his chin. I spun in the air and kicked the knife towards Aiden but Aiden dodged it.

Aiden rushes towards me so I start throwing straight punches with some hooks and I was able to hit his chest and he stumbles back so I run up to him and just as I was about to punch him he summons a clone and the clone side kicks me in the stomach. They both begin attacking me, the clones jumps off of Aiden, spins in the air and drop kicks me but I block but the real Aiden does a flying side kick hitting my stomach. The real Aiden starts to attack me but as I punch him he leans back and the clone uppercuts my chin. I stumbled back and the clone tried to attack me but I blocked his swing and grabbed his neck and jumped backwards and slammed his head on the ground.

Aiden ran up to me and we started to trade blows but we kept moving, not stopping for a break or to rest from the pain. Aiden and I punch each other's faces at the same time and we fall away from each other. I was getting more pissed off by the minute so I got up and three lightning bolts hit me giving me more energy. And at the same time Aiden screams in the air and this bright light shines out of his body. We rushed at each other and we both grabbed each other's hands and the ground underneath began to shatter even more and the air around us began to stir.

Every attack was now faster and stronger and the earth shook creating massive earthquakes around us but we kept on fighting. I had enough so I kicked Aiden pretty hard that sent him flying so I slowed down time and ran up behind him and did a backflip kick hitting his chin. I ran back in front of him and punched his chest sending him flying in the air. I used the air to help me float next to him and I began rapidly throwing punches and kicks at him but Aiden kicked my chin and I went flying higher into the air. I saw Aiden fly up towards me so I waited for the perfect timing, once Aiden was on my level I grabbed his head and kneed it. I then grabbed his ankle and threw him towards the ground and the impact made a huge ditch in the ground.

Aiden got up a bit confused so I used that as an advantage and ran around him in circles as fast as I could. Once I found an opening I ran in and punched his face but he raised both of his arms just in time to block yet he still went flying 80 feet away. Aiden stopped himself and he began to do some kind of hand symbol and once he finished he slammed the ground and clones of himself began to appear out of the sky, landing right next to him. There were probably 100 of them and I was getting nervous, half of them had swords the rest didn't.

'God please help me.'

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes.

'Help me save everyone.'

I began to feel my nervousness disappear and confidence began to replace it. I opened my eyes and both of my eyes began glowing but my right eye had a familiar feeling.

'Unlimited augmentation huh? Nice. Thanks, God.'

All the clones started charging at me, their battlecries filled the air. I balled my fist and grit my teeth in anger.

'I'll have my fun.'

The first clone ran up to me but I punched his head so hard it exploded and I began to move around back and forth, checking everyone, killing all the clones as fast as I could. I disarmed one clone and kicked the sword, impaling two clones. Five clones all jumped at me at the same time and there was no way I could dodge them so I released a small wave of lightning bolts electrocuting the five clones. I continued my massacre, blood splatter every, bodies piled up by the second. I grabbed a clone's body and used it as a weapon, hitting other clones until nothing was left except for its legs. I was down to the last 10 clones when I summoned my sword and began cutting and slicing my way towards Aiden.

'I'll use my powers now.'

I used lighting to move faster and beheaded the last clone. I ran to Aiden as I swung the sword in the air shaking the blood off my sword. Aiden summoned his own sword and sprinted towards me. We both spun in the air and our blades hit each other and created an immense explosion. We began swinging at each other, our blades creating explosions every time they come into contact. Aiden sliced my stomach and it was able to cut through my gear. I groaned in pain but I turned around and swung my sword grazing his shoulder. We began to move around faster until I hit Aiden's sword so hard the sword slipped out of his hands and into the air.

Aiden jumped up so I went after him. Aiden grabbed his sword and we began clashing in the air. I had my wind augmentation as an advantage so I blew him down a bit so I was higher up in the air than him and I did a front flip and slammed my sword down on him and Aiden blocked it however the amount of force I put into that swing blew Aiden back down onto the ground. I gathered all the lightning bolts on my sword and slammed it on the ground creating the shockwave explosion.

I thought Aiden was caught in it but he teleported behind me and swung his sword. I blocked it but then Aiden kicked my sword off of my hands. He began swinging everywhere so I dodged most of his attacks. When he tried to stab me I leaned to the right, grabbed his sword and palmed fist it, breaking it. I punched his stomach twice and he stumbled back.

"Oops." I commented

"Bastard." he growled

He threw the broken sword at me as a distraction and punched my chest but I was able to resist it and fought back. I grabbed one of his arms and tried to punch him with my other arm but Aiden was able to grab that arm. We began kicking each other's legs and the ground underneath us began to form into a giant hole. I jumped up and kicked his chin and continued attacking. We began to hit each other's arms so now I slowed down time and began to rapidly punch him but he was just as fast as me so it was an even match. But Aiden got the upper hand by punching my chin up and he did this semi circle move his hands and with two fingers he hit my chest and stomach. I was blown away by the impact, I tumbled across the destroyed desert and I couldn't stop myself. Once I stopped stumbling I coughed out blood and I felt pain in my ribs.

"What?! Can't go anymore?!" shouted Aiden

"Tsk." I scoffed

I slowly got up and my eyes started to glow again.

"I had enough." I growled

I blasted towards him in a blink of an eye and punched Aiden's face sending him flying but I ran around the earth and punched his back. Aiden stopped himself from flying around and looked around confused so I began to use my lightning to teleport myself around him and then I punched him again in the jaw. I began to run around the entire earth punching Aiden along the way until I gathered every lightning bolt into my right arm and punched his face so hard, his golden mask broke and he went flying away into the sky. I turned off my powers and I felt pain erupt in my ribs.

'Shit I broke a rib or two.'

I clutched it in pain but then I felt it slowly move and heal.

'Looks like the Matrix just helped me.'

I began to walk away but then I heard a loud boom behind me. My heart started beating fast as I slowly turned around to see Aiden standing behind me but he was different. His pupils were bright orange for some reason.

"How?" I asked

"You're nothing compared to me." growled Aiden
