Chapter 4:Bloodbath

*Boom*

Ashes, blood, dead bodies of any age, gender and species, all in 1 second, the peaceful market, innocent children who were playing, adults who were working, elderly who were minding their own business, everyone DEAD.

It all happened so quickly, not even a blink of an eye, just gone like that, for what?

For what purpose did he do it, what did he gain, entertainment, revenge, ideology, or just for the sake of it, just to kill for death, just to feed the concept of death, to make sure that we remember that life can be killed easily, or did he do it because he found it funny, because he is above the rest of them, because he is a superior creature and that the weak should not have a choice but bend to his, no...that isn't it either, he feels no superiority by killing them, he is already superior he doesn't suffer from inferiority complex, he just simply did it.

Just like we kill bugs while walking, it's the same for him, he felt nothing for them, not because he suffers from a mental disorder or because he has a certain ideology he believes in, they were here at the wrong place in the wrong time in the worst day.

He is the worst kind, you can't blame the sickness, religion or the ideology he was raised in, the blame is all his and his alone, he doesn't know the weight of it, or perhaps, he has long ago thrown that heavy burden crawling on his back, he simply doesn't care anymore, little blood that was spilled on him evaporated by the hot flames of his burning engine, no screams, he is just dead looking at me, he is waiting for my first move, am I prey or predator, that's what he is waiting for, and he is about to find out soon, 20 seconds have passed since the explosion, my brain is overworking itself, trying to find a move, what to do in this situation, while my soul cries for these lost lives, so while my brain and soul do their jobs I look him in the eyes too, we both know what is about to happen, there is nothing else, my brain has made it clear to me that direct confrontation is our highest chance for survival, my soul has decided that he should pay for what he did, both have agreed and so will I.

After a good 30 seconds, Arius finally speaks to Deathmetal, both of their eyes are filled with Death, ready to tear each other apart, Arius first words are:

"How do you want to die?"

Arius said, filled with rage, his fists ready to tear a hole right through Deathmetal's chest, and choke him with his own wires.

But Deathmetal simply laughed and replied:

"Me and Death don't exactly go along with each other, only in name"

It's what he said, mocking Arius and his reasoning .

But Arius wasn't easily offended by Deathmetal's words, it made him realize what type of character he was, and what judgment he deserved.

Arius then raised his head up the sky, instead of seeing the beautiful stars…..he was seeing the dead souls traveling up the sky, surrounded by flames.

He then lowered his head and said:

"I see, YOU shall have no grave"

Deathmetal was shocked, but it was quickly rewritten by happiness and jow, the very thought of a battle exited him, it have his existence meaning, his face shifted from shock to happiness instantly, and then in a happy tone he replied to Arius:

"Yes, that is if you can kill me"

*Boom*

In a instant both Arius and Deathmetal clashed, grabbing each other's hands and putting pressure, wich one would break first, the natural born human or the enhanced cyborg, putting pressure on the ground, it started to break down, both sides pushing,

looking at each other, they realized the stalemate was getting them nowhere, on a split second both Arius and Deathmetal pulled themselves backz

"I wasn't expecting such great feat from a young human like you, a human on their 40s should be able to keep up with Nyxium's toughness BUT YOU, ohohohoho this was unexpected, I am glad I got to fight with you"

Deathmetal clenches his fists ready to strike.

Arius eyes are set on fire, his nerves are about to burst out, his face twisted in the most dangerous way imaginable, he replies:

"Bring it on, bitch"

*flash*

*BOOOOOM*

The two collide, Arius's fist breaks half of Deathmetal's face, on the other hand Deathmetal's fist breaks Arius's jaw, his jaw is completely broken, blood is coming out, but his teeth still intact, Arius plunges his fist onto the broken face of Deathmetal, with his other hand he grabs him by the shoulder, then he opens his mouth wide, on 0.4 seconds Arius's body began to heal his jaw instantly, the heal is almost complete but Arius has no time to waste so he gets closer to Deathmetal's head and:

"RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

*Bite*

"MMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAA"

*Break*

He tries to bite off his head, but instead his teeth break, while Deathmetal did praise Arius for being able to keep up with Nyxium, he still is no match for it, but Arius doesn't back down, he starts to headbutt, over and over, faster and faster, HARDER AND HARDER AND HARDER AND HARDER AND HARDER HARDER HARDER

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

*splash*

*plosh*

*Hit*

*Hit*

*Hit

*Hit*

Arius, his head is split open, Deathmetal on the other hand, nothing.

"Admirable, your will that is, but you need to do more than that BOY"

*grabs*

Deathmetal throws Arius away, and starts to slowly walk towards him, he is giving Arius the time needed to recover, he is enjoying the fight, laughing while walking towards him, like a child who just has gotten his new toy from his parents, ready to play.

"Boy, are you ready?"

Arius starts to rise up, his body healed, not with Origin but with Human strength alone, he is saving his Origin when the real battle starts, Arius knows that up until now Deathmetal is just toying with him, Arius's Origin core isn't that good, he is holding his trump card for later when Deathmetal least expects it, but for now, he is willing to play by Deathmetal's rules, he is completely up, his back turned, Arius in a tired voice while coughing said:

"Can you fly?"

Hmmmmm?

"Can I fl-"

*GRAB*

In a instant, Arius grabs Deathmetal by his head, with a grip so strong Deathmetal thought his brain was about to be crushed, Arius then takes off towards the sky while keeping Deathmetal like a trash bin, going up and up until they are finally above the clouds.

*release*

*throws*

"We can fight here"

*Crack*

"Hmmmm, decent choice for the place we are about to battle"

Piece of shit!

"Decent huh, fuck it who cares let's get-"

*FLASH*

WHEN DID HE?

"AAAARRRHHHHHHHHH"

*POW*

Deathmetal appeared right in front of Arius, but was met with a powerful punch, which wasn't enough to hurt him, Arius wasn't shocked, he hated himself for being so weak, but his worries should be the last thing he thinks of, because Deathmetal grabs his hand, and breaks it.

*crunch*

"RRRRRRRR"

This fucker, MY HAND RRRRRRR

HAHAHAHAHA

"What, did it hurt that much BOY"

Arius strengthens his left hand, and punches Deathmetal with all he's got, just to be blocked, Deathmetal then grabs his left arm and breaks it.

*Crack*

"FUCKING BI-"

*GRAB"

Deathmetal grabs Arius by his mouth, and starts putting pressure on it, determined to crush him, Arius grabs Deathmetal whith his right hand, healed up and stronger, he grabs on it and pulls, pulls so hard that he rips Deathmetal's arm off, releasing his mouth he then throws away Deathmetal's arm, falling off from the sky.

*Huff Hufff Huffff*

"Fuck, I thought I was going to die there for a second, yo trash bin, be honest with me, why the hell are you fighting me for?"

Hmmmm, marvelous, the rumors are true indeed, the more you hurt humans the tougher they regenerate, a blessed species indeed, they usually don't leave their home planet Terra, but this one is perhaps the child of colonist, either way I am lucky to face a legendary human

"What am I fighting you for?

Simple, you are a human, one of the toughest races in the cosmos, of course I am going to fight you, you are as rare as it could get, your species never leave the planet of Terra, only when Emperor of Cosmos orders you to, so yeah this is the reason, just a simple fight"

"Then what about the other people you killed down there, what purpose did their death serve to you?"

Ah the civilians

"Well, even if they die now or after it won't make any difference, they were weak, do you know why our civilization has progressed this far?

Because of the strong, because WE keep the bar rising, because WE keep going and going nonstop, a weak person would settle after their 30s and just live their daily boring lives going and going until they die, BUT WE?

We keep the cosmos going, it is because of us that this entire structure keeps on existing, the weak are just little animals that were simply born for entertainment, am I right?"

The hell?

"Entertainment?"

"YES ENTERTAINMENT!

You save the weak because it makes you feel better, as a strong being you have the power to make the difference, and the difference is that you choose to save these animals because you like their daily lives, it makes you feel stronger, better then them, it places you on a higher scale of things-"

"NO I DON'T FEEL THAT WAY!!!!"

Who is this Cyborg mistaking me for!

"YES YOU DO, YOU ARE MORE SELFISH THEN ME!

People like you who act all good and all forgiving are the most selfish people, you feel the inferiority of never being up to the standard and save lives so you can be worshiped, but the truth is you are cowards, you and this disgusting need to save lives is what keeps the plague going, it's what gives these ANIMALS the power to speak up, to demand things from the strong, they don't have that right, and that's why I take it from them, because they are bugs, and a bug shouldn't have the right to complain about their lives, that's why I am here BOY, to save you, to make you realize how pointless it is to waste your time on them"

I have no words, maybe he is right, maybe I shouldn't care about them, at the end of the day I can just walk away with my life, and stay with Saava and Bordor...…

But that wouldn't be me, that's not who I am, that's someone he is trying to make me into, it's his way of thinking, it's his ideology he tries to push onto people through force and terror so he can justify his actions, but I am not GOING TO FALL FOR THAT!

"Sorry to break it to you uncle, but if you consider them weak, then I am a weakling too"

Hmmmmmmmmm

"You a weakling?

Then I will FORGE you into a great warrior"

*zip*

*BOOOM*

Arius and Deathmetal clashed, their wave cleared the clouds below, they started punching and kicking one another as hard as they could, Arius's skin and bones were being destroyed and regenerated all over again, same with Deathmetal, his body was being destroyed and repaired over and over again, and they kept going and going.

Down below, the people who rushed over to put out the flames, and save as many lives as they could were hit with a Blood rain with Metal Pieces falling over them, some thought it was a curse, others took it for a terrorist attack but it was none of those,

up them were 2 monsters facing one another, arms and legs being broken, eyes being gouged out, teeth falling out, it was a BLOODBATH!

*Hufff hufff hufff*

"YOU TRASH RAHHHHHHHHHHH"

*punch*

*hit*

*break*

HAHAHAHAHA

"MOREEEEEEEEE FIGHTTTTTTTT MOREEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!"

*Punch*

*hit*

*break*

"RAHHHHHHHHH"

*Punch*

*Break*

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH"

*Punch*

*Hit*

*Break*

"YOU FUCKKEEEEEEEEEE-"

*PUNCH HIT BREAK!!!!!!!*

"AHAHAHAHAHAHA MOREEEEE"

*PUNCH HUT BREAK!!!!!*

They are fighting, showing all their full physical capabilities, a race to see who would break first.

Unfortunately.

Arius is the first to break.

*blood spilled*

"W-What?

Why won't I heal?"

Deathmetal seeing that Arius has reached his limit decides to:

"Macht und Herrschaft(Power and Rule)

Gravity Origin

Fall down BOY"

*Zip*

*Pow*

*Boom*

*CRUSH*

G-Gravity?

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

*Falling*

*Boom*

Gravity Origin, the power to shape and control gravity to your will, Deathmetal used this exact technique to crush the entire body of Arius and throw him down like a meteor,

Arius is now lying down, his entire body completely crushed, his organs too, his head open with parts of his brain falling out, only one eye functional, barely breathing, Arius is on death's door.

*cough cough cough*

Oh God, I can't feel anything, it hurts so much, my body, I can't, I have to save my Origin for when least expects it, the pain, is making me go insane but I have to hold it, I have to hold Origin and gather as much as I can, for Saava, I have to endure this pain, now where is he-Oh speak of the devil.

Deathmetal slowly descend atop Arius

"Still breathing Boy?"

*crunch*

"Well since you endured this much, I guess two more punches won't hurt you, right?"

Youuuuuuuuu trash

"Mmmmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmm"

I WILL KILL YOUUUUUUUUU

Look at him being all angry, hahaha this is the funniest thing I have ever seen in 100 years

"I see, thanks for agreeing with me Boy, Now how about you toughen yourself up, these punches are going to be very hard, ok?

HERE I COME!"

*PUNCH!*
