Thunderclap Cannon!!! An Emotion-Filled Thunderbolt!!!!

Sky smiled as he charged forwards, slowly building up speed before disappearing. With a disgusting look on his face, Striker spat before disappearing himself. The sky above darkened as the two fighters clashed. Each time Sky's fist would meet Striker's sword, lightning crashed on the battlefield, immediately followed by a deep thunderclap as the two disappeared once again.

Kronos clenched his teeth as he grunted. A small stream of blood ran down his nose and onto his chin.

Prometheus looked down. "A bit out of shape are we?" He said sarcastically.

More grunts followed as Kronos was finally able to say. "A few decades of nothing will do that to you… regardless they're both moving too fast, it's hard to keep relaying instructions this quickly."

"Thunder Skewer!" Striker's voice bellowed across the battlefield.

A sudden idea hit Sky at the mention of the attack. Quickly he backed off, creating a large distance between the two. He pulled his arms back in an exaggerated clap. Once again Striker charged forwards. The distance between them narrowed as a sudden instinct told Sky it was time. He pulled his arms together, stopping the blade with his bare hands.

"Thunderclap!" Sky shouted as an explosive force of air dispelled from in front of him. "Cannon!"

The air narrowed until it became a stream running through Striker's blade and his torso. A second passed before the blade shattered and a large dent formed in Striker's armor sending him flying backwards into the dirt, rolling and tumbling as he came to a slow stop.

Sky panted as heavy droplets of sweat formed on his chin and fell down to the ground. Through his raspy breaths he looked at where Striker was lying. A sharp pain ran through his body, freezing him. "AAAAGGGGHHHH!!!!!" He shouted as he fell down to his knees, just saving his head from hitting the ground with his elbows.

"It's the cost." Kronos' voice spoke in his head.

"...Cost…?" Sky said through his raspy breaths.

"Everything comes at a price, including this power of yours… just because you can use them, does not mean your body can handle them." Kronos said.

"Wha-" Sky's voice cracked as he struggled to breath.

"BLOOOD!!!" The voice boomed from in front of Sky.

"BLOOOD!!!!" It said again, "OH HOW I HAVE FORGOTTEN WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BLEEEED!!!!"

Sky looked up to see Strikers slowly getting up. There was a splatter of red blood on his chin and a stream coming down his nose. He touched it and smiled, groaning and shouting as he got up. Struggling to do the same, Sky eventually got up as well. The two warriors looked at each other.

"Give me more!" Striker said.

He threw his hand up as the lightning above head became stronger and more violent until it slammed down on him once again. "Overcharge Max!" He yelled.

Once the lightning had stopped the final form of Striker could be seen. A blue glow was being emitted by his body, similar to Sky's. The blue aura that now surrounded him had taken shape as claws could be seen formed around his finger tips. His steel armor cracked. The cracks kept increasing until finally his armor shattered revealing a giant muscular body, covered in torture wounds and battle scars.

"Unlike you son of Zeus, should I fail again, I would be sent to be tortured for eternity." As he spoke he touched his scarred right eye.

Sky stared, fear started creeping in as he realized how far out of his depth he really was.

"Duck!" Kronos shrieked in his head.

Just as he went for the move he felt something large connect with his ribcage. WHAAAAAM!!!! The attack launched Sky backwards. There was a sudden pop, when Sky opened an eye Striker was gone and a sudden shadow appeared overhead. He felt another strange heaviness in his stomach as his direction suddenly changed. WHAAAAM!!!! Striker hammered him into the ground.

A pitch black darkness came over Sky as he lost all sight. He could feel the electric current running across his body fading as someone grabbed his white hair and lifted him. He managed to open his left eye some, only to see that he was now face to face against Striker.

"Tell me half-blood… Do you bleed?" A sharp pain ran through Sky's gut as Striker drilled a fist into it.

Sky's throat tightened as his jaw started dropping, leading to a large mush of food escaping his mouth. An unhappy look came across Striker's face as he drilled another fist into Sky's gut and another and another, until finally nothing started coming out.

A sting went up Sky's nose as a little droplet of blood fell down it. A sudden smile grew on the face of Striker, he started punching stronger and faster until finally he let go of Sky who vomited blood as soon as he hit the ground.

"Son of Zeus, do you wanna know the best part of hunting half-bloods?" He asked as he crouched low to the ground.

He moved his head over to where Sky's was and pushed it out of the way, bringing his nose to the ground. "It's the smell of blood!" He said with a horrifying face.

Tears welled into Sky's eyes as he started wishing he had never made the deal with Kronos.

"Stand strong Sky..." He heard the voice of Kronos in his head.

"What you're feeling now is what'll win us this." He said.

A shiver ran through Sky as struggled to keep himself from running away. He remembered back to the start of training, at what Leeds and Jennifer were trying to do and pieced together what Kronos was trying to say.

"DISAPPEAR!!!" Sky shouted as the teardrops fell from his cheeks.

A monstrous bolt of lightning slammed down onto Striker, it's heat boiling the ground and turning it into lava. The stream of lightning continued for what seemed like hours before finally stopping to show a burned body of Striker, singed and covered in cracks of red, like lava rivers.

He collapsed onto the ground as the smell of burnt hair filled the air.
