Devils Reign lll

If felt as if time had stopped to Daredevil. His heart beat erupted from his chest in anticipation, for he knew that today would be a bloody battle. His senses screamed at him to avoid the battle as much as possible.

He ignored it.

'Foolish.' Bane monologues inward. Daredevil swiftly threw one of his sticks, Bane easily weaves the sudden attack.

Daredevil started his assault with kicks. Perfect body and head kicks pelted Bane but did nothing.

"Lets not stand on ceremony here." He says as leisurely walks towards him, hands placed upon his collar.

"You wont get away from this." And with these words Daredevil engages the man. Tow body hooks harmlessly bounce of Bane, as he just takes it. The attacks continue as Daredevil grabs onto Bane's bicep and hoists himself above Bane and comes down with a sharp, spear-like elbow.

However Bane's step back, makes it irrelevant. This didn't deter the smaller man, instead of hesitate at his failure, he rushed to Bane.

He does a sudden drops down to all fours and executes a sweep thats checked ruthlessly. Daredevil springs up and quickly transitions to a spinning back kick, aimed for the larger mans head.

Bane lashes out with his own attack, a simple standing sweep to DD's leg of the ground that trips him immediately, negating his attack.

"HA!" Daredevil shouts out as he hops to his feet and progresses with his attacks, out comes a flurry of pokes and swings from his billy club. He whips and wrangles his wires and batons to strike in unorthodox rhythms, and places, trying to confuse the huge man.

They pelt him once more, doing no damage. For the first time, Bane's hands came down before his left hand shot out like a bullet, jabbing the air next to Daredevil's face.

The speed shocks Matt temporarily. "Damn You!" He exclaims as another assault from him emerges. This time Bane takes an active roll in defense, dodging his powerful head swings and kicks as he casually checks body shots by slapping whatever attacks him down, whether it be fist, elbow, knee, kick or baton.

"More." Bane disappointedly says as he reaches to grab the red cladded man. His huge arms barely miss the acrobat as he flips over his attempt and lands behind him, and before he can turn around, his batons ram themselves into the back of Bane's knees, making him take a couple stutter steps forward.

"Finally!" Bane whips back with a destructive back hand, skimming daredevil's mask, but that's enough to push him back to continue with another jab.

*POWWWW* Bane's simple jab hits Matt's armored mask and shatters it as pieces fly in every direction.

"Victory has defeated you." Bane says as he eyes Matt Murdocks exposed, bruised face. He sees the damage his jab created. A swollen eyebrow with hints of blood leaking and a lightly bruised forehead.

'Most likely bruised his skull also.' Bane adds.

"So, know you see me.."- Matt wipes his his face of gathered sweat.- "Why are you doing this? Whatever it is….you will be stopped."

*KUHHH PERRRRRR*

"Such…inquisitiveness. But you must be careful, as you know, 'curiosity killed the cat.'"

"Do you think this is a game? I can feel your body, how young you are…don't go down this path. You still have a chance."

"…You think I'm going to kill you? Interesting…you are simply a pawn I need to further what I want, no more no less. You have my permission to die after I get done." He says to the fake sympathetic.

"You need help." Matt says as he shoots forward. Bane's punch flows over his head before he is launched back by a sudden shove when he got to close.

*BOWWW* Daredevil's body collides with a heavy dumpster, denting the metal in like a almost perfect imprint of his back. Rightfully so, his body goes numb from the blow, his eyes water as his ears ring.

'Dammit…concussion.' Matt diagnoses himself inwardly.

His eyes gain momentary clarity and what he sees is a bone chilling sight. Bane, chambering his leg, like a shotgun, for a stiff straight kick, sure to punch through Matt's body and blast him to bits if it lands. With urgency he gathers his wits and rolls to the left, out of the danger zone just as Bane's leg enters his previous space.

*POWWWWWWWWWWWWWW*

The force from his foot instantly deforms the dumpster, turning it into a flying ball of crushed metal as it shoots of down the alley.

"AGHHH!" Frustration comes into Matt's mind as he simply charges the man again. Matt shifted his attack with lightning speed. He missed a right, and following it in with the weight of his body, leaped into the air onto Bane's back, instantly sliding his arm around his thick neck, grabbed his own wrist with his left hand, and jerked up and pulled hard, trying to strangle the giant.

*CRRAACK* Bane's head violently bashes Matt's nose, instantly breaking it, making blood pour it. Stunned, his grip loosens and Bane capitalizes.

"HAH!" He exclaims as he hoists Daredevils battered body over his head, one hand holding up his legs, the other his torso.

"I-I….will stop you,...Bane!" Matt mutters from his broken face.

"Heh, I wondered if I had broken your spirit. But no, thats what makes you like 'him'. I like that. Now…"- Bane's face morphs into a rare smirk.-"I break your body."

At those words, Matt's body becomes an unstoppable force and Bane's knee, an unmovable object, and their clashing reveals a devastating thing…

*CRACK*

"ARRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!"

Matt's spine breaks and snaps from the collision, rag dolling him and unsightly slumping off Bane's knee and slithers onto the ground like a snake.

"You fought like an animal, a man poised. Admiral…..but mistaken." Bane says to him with a roll of his shoulders as he collects his coat from the pile and walks away comfortably, as if nothing happened.
