The Arbiter Kills The Inkman Universe
PART II
"Ha ha.. ha..." The Arbiter panted as he exited the small condo he had just fought Mikoto in, leaving its residents stunned as they saw this intruder exit their home. "Thanks for a place to crash." he told the young couple and walked off.
"RAAAHHHHH!" a booming voice yelled, and suddenly the ground a few blocks away was cracked, catching The Arbiter's attention.
SHOOOO! Chirpington's Fighting Falcon landed soon after, and the clearing rubble revealed Titen was thrown.
"RAHHHHH!" Titen roared and grabbed the mech, then threw it towards The Arbiter.
"Watch out!" The Arbiter turned to the young couple and pushed them away, only to have himself hit by the shockwave of the mech.
"Chirp..." Chirpington peeped and got his mech back up, only to see Titen charging towards him, "CHIRR!" he opened fire with his gatling gun, shooting rounds of black ink into Titen's body.
"Rah! ARGH!" Titen's charge was repulsed, and he jumped up into a building.
"I got you now..." The Arbiter stood up and ran to his jeep which was parked outside the condo, "Hrph!" he opened the door and saw his arsenal inside. In a quick motion, he opened a small journal with handwritten notes and illustrations of various people which included Volta, Mikoto, some highly wanted Ink Lords, Titen, and Chirpington.
"CHIRR!" Chirpington lifted up Titen and threw him down into the street below, causing quite a tremor.
"Alright... this must be Titen..." The Arbiter matched up the picture with the real deal, "Let's see here, according to the Lodestar files..." he read his little notes, "Titen's power increases the more he's fought, his anger multiplies his power as well. Prolonged conflict can lead to overpowering that can surpass the Pneumatic Energy Enhancers... Best if taken down early- Hypothesis: The Suit Dagon must have given Titen may allow for this super buff, as chemicals can be seen entering the pipettes when Titen is angered further." he looked at Titens back, and sure enough saw little clear tubes embedded in the suit.
"RAHHHHH!" Titen grabbed a car and threw it at the Fighting Falcon G2, which cut it in half with a metallic karate chop.
"And that must be..." The Arbiter flipped the pages, "The Fighting Falcon G2..." he muttered and read the notes, "Got it..." he muttered and put the notebook in his vest pocket, then looked back in his jeep and opened up a bag.
"CHIRRR!" Chirpington screeched and opened up a missile launcher in his left arm, "CHA!"
"BRAHHH!" Titen was struck by the ink missile and sent flying over The Arbiter's car, leaving Chirpington with a full view of what was to come.
"So long..." The Arbiter muttered as he aimed his Inkzooka, which struck the Fighting Falcon G2, sending it back. Using this time that the mech was impaired, the inkling ran towards the downed robot.
"Chirr.." Chirpington growled and jumped back up, only to see The Arbiter on his display.
"HRAH!" The Arbiter punched the head of the mech and then jumped off.
"CHIR CHIR!" Chirpington tried to remove the object that was impairing his vision, which was actually some form of beacon.
"RAHHHHHHH!" Titen appeared, and disregarding The Arbiter, jumped over him and tackled down the Fighting Falcon.
"Hmph..." The Arbiter grunted and flipped a switch on a small device, which made an Inkstrike missile shoot out of the back of his jeep and lock on to the beacon he had strapped on the Fighting Falcon.
SHWWOOOOOSSHHHHHH! The missile exploded in the signature blast, but this time with black ink.
The two giants were pelted and launched into a building, where terrified citizens ran out frantically.
"That shouldn't have been enough to take them out..." The Arbiter muttered uneasily as he reloaded his Inkzooka, "Th-"
"FALCON DIVE!" a voice yelled, and Inkman swooped down and tackled The Arbiter into his jeep.
"ARGH!" The Arbiter yelled in pain as he slid down the broken driver's door, "Ah..."
"Chirpington!" Inkman yelled as he looked around, then saw The Fighting Falcon G2 be punched out of the building.
"RAHHHH!" Titen beat his chest and roared, "CRUSHHHH!" he grabbed a concrete slab and threw it and Chirpington.
"Boom Boom Sticks!" The Inkman threw his explosive sticks, which destroyed the slab before it struck his avian ally, "Thank Heavens someone came and preoccupied Dagon... I knew something was up..." he turned to face The Arbiter, who had moved to another location.
"Chiirr..." Chirpington growled as he manhandled Titen, "Chirp!" he advised.
"It seems The Arbiter was playing the backstage role of striking our heels." Lodestar radioed, "Maybe he was the one who attacked Volta..." she muttered.
"All thanks to you, girl." The Arbiter spoke, stunning the three greatly.
"How... How did you get into this channel!?" Lodestar said, "This is a private server-"
"I know all about you, Lodestar, or should I say, Tori?" The Arbiter spoke, the audible sound of a vehicles engine was present.
"Impossible!" Inkman said, "How did y-"
"Thanks to you." The Arbiter said, "You shouldn't speak to Volta privately, someone might peep in..." he chuckled and recollected his spying on Volta and Inkman talking on the roof. "You mentioned Tori's name and I had someone look her up... Needless to say she's a pretty famous engineer and techie..."
"I can't pin point his location..." Lodestar muttered, "You're using a multi proxy interface... You're all over the place..."
"Learned that from you..." The Arbiter laughed, "Say, you remember that food drive you did at the shelter in the Urban district."
"I don-" Lodestar paused, "How do you..."
00000000
"Excuse me ma'am..." Amy walked up to Tori, who was helping distribute food, "Can you help me find the restroom?" she asked.
"Why, sure." Tori smiled and grabbed the little girl by the hand, unaware that The Arbiter appeared out of the janitorial closet.
Amy turned and smiled at the man, who walked behind the counter of the shelter.
The Arbiter stumbled into another employee, whom he instantly put in a sleeper hold and knocked him out.
"Now where... ah ha..." The Arbiter muttered as he saw the back exit, and stepping out, he saw the parking lot.
"AP-1945." was scribbled in his little notebook, and the man walked down the parked cars until he stopped by one small hatchback that was lime green- license plate: AP-1945.
"Hmm..." The Arbiter pulled out a device from his utility belt, then clicked it.
PWEOP PEEW! The car unlocked.
The Arbiter opened the car door and looked inside then punched the glove compartment and saw a laptop inside.
"Bingo..." The Arbiter muttered and pulled out a flashdrive.
00000000
"You used my laptop against me..." Lodestar muttered, "You knew I was going to connect to my cloud..."
"And thanks to that, I have the information of all of the supers in this city..." The Arbiter told her, "Now if you look at your Files again, you may find a cool surprise."
Lodestar pulled up her files, and then, once she opened up Volta's file, a huge red 'X' was put across her portait picture, as was Mikoto's.
"What kind of sick joke..." Lodestar spoke, "Inkman... The Arbiter, he killed Volta!" she cried.
"What!?" Inkman turned as he fended off against Titen, "He- WHAT?!" he became angry.
00000000
A vehicle pulled up into Inkman's mountain base.
The Arbiter slowly stepped out, and walked towards the log cabin, flicking a switch on a small device.
00000000
"Huh!?" Lodestar said as he security systems died down, "what-"
"What's wrong?" Inkman asked, "What's going on!?"
"Someone has shut down my security via a remote source..." Lodestar looked around, then heard the door creak.
"Judgment has come into this house." The Arbiter muttered, then two blasts were heard.
Lodestar's radio went silent...
The picture on Lodestar's profile gained a red 'X' as well.
"NOOOOO!" Inkman yelled.
00000000
"DWAHHH!" Dagon was sent crashing to the ground by a dominant force, "Agh..."
"And don't mess with him again!" an Octoling descended from the sky, it was One Punch Fan, "Or you'll get another..."
"Her power is incredible..." Dagon stood up, "But not enough!" he yelled and blasted her into The Inkman.
"AH!" The Inkman was sent into a building.
"Hello!" One Punch Fan looked at her idol, "Oh! I finally have you in my arms!" she put on kissy lips.
"Bwah!" Inkman kicked her off, "Chirpington!" he warned his avian ally about an incoming attack.
"RAHHHH!" Titen jumped on top of the Fighting Falcon, "CRUSH PUNY BIRD!"
"Rahhhh!" The Arbiter, who had returned by this time, jumped from a roof and down on Titen's back, "Take this!" he planted a firm punch into the fiend's back, breaking the chemical compartment.
"AH!" Dagon gasped as Titen's anger serum splashed out.
"Agh..." Titen's muscle mass started to decrease drastically to the point where he was back to his regular size.
SPLAT SPLAT! The Arbiter fire two rounds into the anemonite's back head and jumped off as the foe turned into a ghost.
"These PEEs of yours..." The Arbiter held a more advanced looking version of Inkman's power enhancers, "That Tori sure knows her stuff..." he chuckled, then leaped on the Fighting Falcon and ripped off the mech's head.
"Impossible-"
"HRAH!" The Arbiter looked down to see Chirpington inside, "Tweet me this!" he fired two more rounds, and Chirpington's ghost popped out.
"Looks like I got an ally..." Dagon laughed as the Fighting Falcon fell down, "It's over Inkm-"
BLAST! The Arbiter shot Dagon in the head, stunning the arch-fiend.
"Argh..." Dagon growled, "Why you!" he charged up a blast of evil energy and fired.
"AH!" The Arbiter blocked it with his arms, but was still sent back and the PEEs were destroyed in the process.
"You killed them all!" Inkman angrily yelled and kicked The Arbiter into the concrete.
"HA!" The Arbiter avoided the kick and punched Inkman in the flank.
"AH!" Inkman crashed into a lightpole.
"Don't you mess with him!" One Punch Fan jumped forward.
"Shut it." The Arbiter shot her, but the ink blasts deflected off of her.
"She'll kill you in one punch." Dagon laughed, "Better watch out..."
"HYAH!" One Punch Fan released her killer punch.
"Huh!?" The Arbiter gasped and instinctively grabbed her arm and made it move towards her in a twist.
"AH!" One Punch Fan saw as her fist returned to her face, and it punched her, and she instantly dissipated.
"Ah... Ah..." Dagon stammered as he saw The Arbiter standing there.
"Now... for the big guns..." The Arbiter pulled out two inkstols, "I know nothing of you two..." he pulled out his notebook.
He had the pictures of both Inkman and Dagon, but all his notes contained where their strengths, not their weaknesses or any way to defeat them.
"Stop right there... you evil doer..." Inkman stood, "Your wrath ends here..." he muttered and ran, "Justice Punch!" he yelled and clocked The Arbiter towards Dagon.
"Ah!" Dagon gasped as The Arbiter landed in his arms, "I don't want him!" he growled and threw him at a car.
"Agh!" The Arbiter growled, then saw The Inkman charge towards Dagon, then he saw the massive damage each of the two dealt at each other.
"I wonder..."
"Damn it!" Dagon was thrown into a wall by The Inkman, "Damn you to hell!" he launched a black wave of energy.
"HA!" Inkman reflected it with his glowing white hand, "Good will never triumph of evil!" he jumped back, "JUSTICE PUNCH!" he yelled and leaped.
"I got thi- HUH!?" Dagon was put in an arm lock by The Arbiter, who has snuck behind him.
KAPOW!
"AHHHH!" Dagon roared in pain when the punch hit his head.
"Get him! Inkman!" The Arbiter used all his might to hold back the severly weakened Dagon.
"I don't need your help!" Inkman yelled, "PROVIDENCE PUNCH!" he made his fist glow white as a star and punched Dagon in the heart.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Dagon screamed and instantly disintegrated into a cloud of black smoke, which flew up to the sky and dispersed to the whole earth.
"Ha... Ha..." The Arbiter panted, "You did it... But you couldn't save that family..." he chuckled.
"That family had nothing to do with me..." Inkman growled, but then, at that instant, a lightning shot down from the sky, and whatever was Good in Inkman had left him.
"What!?" Inkman felt as his spirit left him, "Ha... What's going on..."
"I guess you said something evil..." The Arbiter scoffed, "Good can't go with Evil..." he raised his inkstol, "Your blessings are gone..." he smirked.
SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT!
THUD!
00000000
The Arbiter looked at his phone and saw The Inkman's picture gain a red 'X', along with Titen, Dagon, Chirpington, Volta, Mikoto, One Punch Fan, and Tori.
He then looked at the desolation, and then saw many police and Civil Defense vehicles arrive.
"Supers are dead. Supers remain dead." The Arbiter saw the ink puddles of his foes, "And I have killed them. How shall I, the splatter of all splatters console myself? Is this not a super thing that is great in act? Must I become a super to become worthy of it?
If so... I am a super...
and all supers... must... die..."
He raised the his inkstol, with his last ounce of black ink.
SPLAT SPLAT!
The picture of The Arbiter's information profile gained a red 'X'...
