Queens Squad vs Famine, Part 4

War lets out a sigh of relief to herself as she takes a comfy seat in Death's elaborate penthouse looking over the city as the moon rises into the sky, after another guromse day of battle. War smirks as she watches the chaos unfolding below, dozens of Pro Slayers struggling against thousands of demons. Blood, ruin, and death spreading as far as the eye can see.

"It's been a while since the Blue Demon and Flames of Destruction wielder have started their battle," War says to herself as she motions to stand up. "Perhaps I should go check on who the winner i-"

But before War can finish her line, she hears a giant "crash" and the sound of glass shattering behind her.

"WHAT?!" War cries as she spins around to where she heard the crash, watching Mikey and I leap through the window.

"WAAARRRRR!!!!!!" Mikey and I simultaneously roar as he turns to face War, who's eyes widen as the demon seems taken completely by surprise.

"Invincisphere!" War cries as she brings both of her arms up in a cross, summoning an Invincisphere bubble around her entire body and using it to shield herself from the glass and concrete mine and Mikey's entrance hurled towards War. As for MIkey and I, we only succeeded in cutting ourselves on the glass.

"I had planned to go kill the winner of their fight…" War says to herself. "BUT NOW, BOTH THE BLUE DEMON AND FLAMES OF DESTRUCTION WIELDER STAND BEFORE ME?! I didn't expect one of you to show up, much less two, much less the both of you working together! It looks like I was wrong about the outcome of your fight."

"Mikey and I had a little talk," I explain as I point an accusing finger towards War. "We reconciled our differences and decided that killing you is a lot cooler than killing each other!"

"For killing my parents and controlling me…" Mikey growls.

"For controlling my dad with your Emotion Manipulation…" I growl.

"WE'RE HERE TO KILL YOU!!!!"

"DEMON!" Mikey barks, interrupting my squabble with War. "Remember; we've only got one shot at this!"

"You don't need to tell me that!" I bark back with a smirk. "You're the one who said we can pretty much tell what one other's thinking after trying to kill each other so often!"

"Right…" Mikey replies with a small chuckle. "I did say that.

"Huh…this turley is unexpected…" War softly replies. "Well then-" War continues as her confused expression curls up into a hideous, sneering grin. "COME AT ME BOYS! THAT IS, IF YOU TWO TRULY THINK THAT YOU CAN KILL ME!"

"Thrust me…we do…" Mikey replies with a smirk as he begins his left hand up, forming a black fireball in his palm, as I bring my right hand up, forming a dark-blue tornado in my hand.

"INFERNO CONTROL-" Mikey and simultaneously roar as we thrust our hands towards War, firing off a powerful blast of dark-blue wind and an equally as strong rush of black flames towards War.

Just like with our fight against King, all those years ago, as our two attacks fly towards War, my wind and Mikey's flames begin to mix and merge together, forming a huge, powerful, black, flaming tornado of wind, crackling with purple Cursed Power. Time and time again…my wind strengthens Mikey's flames, resulting in something greater than the two of us are on our own. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

"FANNING THE FLAMES: FLASH FIRE!"

War smugly peers back at Mikey and I from behind her bubble, until War's face is completely enveloped by mine and Mikey's attack, which blasts into War's Invincisphere, fully engulfing War's bubble in a spiraling, flaming black tornado, 

crackling with purple Cursed Power.

At first, when mine and Mikey's Flash Fire crashes into War's Invincisphere bubble, nothing happens. War's smug smirk doesn't waver even for a split second, as she knows that her Invincisphere bubble will protect her from any harm.

But then…the unthinkable happens.

Just like with King's Black Prism after it was struck by mine and Mikey's Flash Fire, a small, singular crack forms in War's Invincisphere bubble, causing the demon's eyes to widen. War lets out a small gasp, seeing that -in fact- Mikey and I do have the strength to shatter her Invincisphere bubble, afterall.

"Feeling nervous there, War?" I ask with a smirk from behind mine and Mikey's Flash Fire.

"Tch," War replies with a small grunt as she grits her teeth. "No one in the history of the world has been able to shatter my Invincisphere, except for Death…AND YOU BRATS SURE AS HELL WON'T BE THE SECOND!" But much to War's surprise, another crack forms in her Invincisphere bubble, and then another, and another one after that.

"Are you so sure about that?" Mikey asks with a smirk.

"WE CAN DO THIS!!!" I roar.

"NOT IF I CAN STOP YOU!" War roars back as even more cracks begin to form in her Invincisphere bubble, starting from where mine and Mikey's Flash Fire initially makes contact with War's Invincisphere bubble, and spreading out like branching rivers, like a glass plain with a stone dropped on top of it, to the sides and top of War's Invincisphere bubble, which is wrapped up in mine and Mikey's flaming black tornado.

I roar, War roars, Mikey roars.

Mikey and I up the pressure of our Flash Fire, turning up the heat and increasing the speed of our wind, and then…with a final roar -as the cracks in War's Invincisphere bubble grows even larger- War's eyes widen as mine's and Mikey's Flash Fire shatters War's Invincisphere bubble for good. War screams in pain as she's fully engulfed by mine and Mikey's flaming black tornado, with nothing to protect her from the heat.

The skyscraper that Mikey and I are battling War in is blasted to bits, and the top floor of the penthouse is fully decimated by mine and Mikey's flaming black tornado and giant explosion of purple Cursed Power. By the time that mine and Mikey's flaming black tornado dissipates, War's body -soaked in blood, charred completely black, and scorched unrecognizable- limply falls to the ground.

"Is that…its…?" I ask as I drop to the ground on one knee, panting for breath and gasping heavily. After briefly fighting the Four Horsemen then battling against Mikey, I still haven't had a chance to catch my breath or get my wounds treated. I'm running on empty now.

"It looks like it," Mikey answers as he drops to one knee as well, panting for breath also.

War has been defeated.

***

With a giant burst of Cursed Power of various shades, Famine knocks Lycan off of her, sending the Hellhound flying backwards and landing on the ground in a cloud of dust. By the time the dust settles, Lycan had been forced out of his Hellhound form.

"Damn…" Slayer Renzu says to herself. "So this is what a Four Horsemen Rule Breaker looks like…"

"Lycan!" Ralph cries as he rushes over to his comrade, kneeling on the ground beside him and helping Lycan up. "Are you okay?"

"What…happened…?" Lycan weakly asks as he struggles to his feet.

"You went berserk," Ralph answers as he helps Lycan to his feet. "You weren't conscious of your movements?"

Lycan opens his mouth up to speak, but he's interrupted when he hears a monstrous roar. Lycan then turns to where he heard the roar, and when he does; his eyes widen. "What is that thing?!" Lycan cries.

"Famine," Ralph answers. "She went berserk too. How do we beat this thing?"

"I have an idea," Lycan answers as his entire body begins bubbling with his maroon-red Cursed Power.

"Lycan, no!" Ralph orders. "With…Ivy no longer around to control you, it's too dangerous for you to enter your wolf form!"

"Don't worry," Lycan replies as he turns and peers over his shoulder at Ralph with a small smile. "I'm in control now. Thanks to Ivy, I finally have the strength to tame the beast inside me. Because someone out there was able to love someone like me." Lycan then turns back around to face Famine, as his smile melts into a scowl.

"Wild Side…"

Lycan's hands and wrists, and feet and ankles then morph into the muscular arms and legs of a wolf, each armed with vicious, lethal black claws. Wolf ears then sprout from the top of Lycan's head, as a wolf tail sprouts from Lycan's tailbone.

"WEREWOLF!"

Famine lets out a feral, ear-splitting roar, one strong enough to send shockwaves of wind and dust flying towards Lycan, as -with his own mighty roar- Lycan charges Famine, reinforcing his entire body with maroon-red Cursed Power and moving almost faster than the naked eye can see.

"Lycan…" Ralph softly says as he watches a blur of white and red pounce upon Famine. Lycan then shreds at Famine with his werewolf claws, as well as spitting out powerful balls of fire, doing whatever that he can to slaughter the demon. "-You…are a true Rule Breaker…"
