Sonic Elements Chapter 10 Clash! Heaven and Hades
Hey whats up everyone. I can't believe it's already 2011 huh? Dang, that last year just flew by. Well as the saying goes, the end of one thing, is simply the beginning of another. An I believe I owe you guys a fight don't I, well I guess it's time to deliver than.
P.S. Thanks again for taking the time to read my story, I do appreciate it greatly.
I can't really describe how things are right now, but I'll give it a shot.
It's about 12:45 by my guess, not to long past lunch right? The sun is out like most days, letting off its average heat, though technically where I am right now, I could probably find a cooler spot walking into the desert. Even if right now I'm standing in an open grass land with trees spread out sparsely, it wasn't to boring. There were one other factor that made this area interesting besides the high heat level, and that just so happens to be a large rock that's about the size of a car. Yet even if I went to hide behind that the heat would still get on my nerves.
An there, right in front of me, stood the source of the intense heat and 90% of my anger at the moment. (the other 10% being the little fight I just had with Blaze)
Just look at him, he still has that smug look on his face like he is completely above me. You think that after he got that cut on his cheek from one of yours truly 's well placed punches, he'd wise up a bit.
That's what you would think right? Well nope, he didn't, but I shouldn't be shocked with the way he emits heat like that. Heck, I'd be pretty smug too if I was in his shoes. Dang that Inferno, he really knows how to piss me off! I should just start wailing on him with insults to get out some of this rage, but this time I found that impossible, as I couldn't think of anything to say. For now anyways.
Pretty weird huh? At least that's how I see it.
I mean, there have been few times in my life where I've been completely speechless. The time I first met Blaze was one, and that time Knuckles tried karaoke (shutters) that's one I wish I could forget. Note to self, guys that have spent most of their lives alone are completely tone deaf.
Yet why do I need a joke you ask? Usually everyone expects some sort of joke or snarky remark from me to ease the tension a bit. Though I can't blame them as I've made that my way of life so to speak.
Yet at this moment I had nothing. (sigh) I would be completely embarrassed at my own lack of creativity right now if this was just another one of my usual battles... but sadly, this isn't one of those.
No, not at all to tell you the truth.
I'm used to being able to take my opponent lightly. You know, run around um a few times, crack off a few wise guy remarks, and finish things with a well placed homing attack or so out of nowhere. Then bad guy goes down, wines for a sec, runs off with his tail between his legs an I get on with my life. Yet this one was different, this time it was personal.
In all my fights over the years none of my enemies have ever made me this angry. An the lengths this guy would sink to do so, are beyond low. An what he did I can't just let slide. To think he would cause that much pain to his little sister like that without an ounce of remorse in him, what did she ever do to earn that kind of treatment huh?
You know, I don't care what his reasons he might have because nothing he could possibly say would get him off the hook. An to be honest again, I've been spending way to much time now not trying to beat the crap out of him...so lets fix that.
All this ran through Sonic's mind after his first few clashes with Inferno, an with that, they instantly began again.
They rushed toward each other and their fists started to collide with ground breaking force, so much so that as they did, the ground formed craters underneath them with every strike.
Now the two stood glaring at one another eye to eye a look of rage evident by the scowls on the their faces, and a vein emerging as Sonic's right fist was being held back by Inferno's left hand.
"You are starting to anger me rodent, you would do well to quit while you still have your life." Inferno growled straining his arm pushing back Sonic's fist.
"Only starting? Well that won't work, considering you pushed me past angry a long time ago when you did that to Blaze!" Sonic said matching Inferno, further adding to their stalemate.
The two held that stance for another few seconds before they finally forced each other to push away. They were sent flying back for only a few feet before they stilled themselves. Than at that the two rushed at one another again, this time starting with a clash of elbows.
Sonic and Inferno strained against each others elbow hoping to gain some lead way, but it too proved fruitless as their physical strength seemed identical. So realizing it would be pointless to continue this, their clash escalated into a quick exchange blows. Yet not one quick jab or kick, no they were letting off punches, kicks, and blocks so fast that their limbs seemed to blur. (An aspect the fighters of dragon ball z would seem to be able to relate to)
The two of them remained this way for some time not giving an inch... well at least not until things started to get a little more direct anyway.
A closer look at the battle showed this was not a stalemate, but a down right test of whom would slip up first.
Sonic threw a right punch at Inferno, but his attack was quickly dodged and countered. Inferno punched Sonic in the gut causing him to bend forward holding his stomach. He then capitalized on this by grabbing Sonic's head and kneeing him in the face, hurling him upward. While Sonic was being hurled Inferno raised his left hand and readied a fireball.
"I told you before, your to weak to match me Sonic." Inferno said with obvious boasting.
Though his boast was cut short as he suddenly found his hand being kicked to the side.
Sonic instantly was now back on the ground bent with one hand helping to hold him up. "An I told you that you couldn't keep up with me." Sonic said as he sweep kicked Inferno causing him to fall to his side. Yet before he could touch the ground Sonic had already switched from the kneeling sweep kick from his left leg to a roundhouse from his right, shooting Inferno several yards away.
Inferno quickly steadied himself and recovered to a standing position, holding his gut in pain though. He looked up and glared. "Why you lowlife piece of-"
Inferno had no time to finish as Sonic appeared right behind him. "What was that? It sounded like you were angry, but I don't think your even close to feeling my rage yet."
Inferno quickly looked behind himself with rage and shock evident in his face. He hadn't expected Sonic to close the gap between them so quickly, let alone get behind him without notice. Yet with a quick motion it was but a millisecond before Inferno found himself flying through the air. He had no idea how this had happened but he was sure by the sudden pain he felt in his chin that he had been launched due to a powerful kick.
BACK AT THE CASTLE A FEW YARDS AWAY.
Blaze and Magma had not changed their positions from being in the gaping hole in the castle wall since the start of this battle, but to say they had done absolutely nothing would not be correct either. To be precise their faces had been doing most of their movement now.
"Well I'll be. Looks like Sonic is a lot stronger than I thought. I'm impressed, you know he just proves himself more and more my type every second, don't you think little sister." Magma spoke as she looked down to Blaze whom was still on the floor.
Blaze simply ignored her sisters taunt, but she still voiced her opinion of that statement with a well aimed glare. Though Magma just shrugged it off, Blaze than turned her attention back towards Sonic.
"I don't understand how Sonic is doing this?" Blaze questioned.
Magma gazed back at her and folded her arms over her chest. "Are you serious? You mean after all this time you spent with him you didn't notice how strong he was? That is very pitiful Blaze."
Blaze looked at Magma and attempted to respond, but for some reason she couldn't bring herself to do it. Then something struck her in her mind. Her eyes widened as her mind began to race. "This can't be right, no way." She continued to think trying to come up with a solution to her problem. There was no way she would admit to this, it must be some kind of trick. Yet the more she tried to dismiss it as false, the harder it became to do so. "I must have been hit harder than I thought. Because what I'm seeing can't be real. There's no way Sonic could be matching Inferno like this, there was just no way."
Magma seen how Blaze had been losing herself to thought but she figured it would be best to just let her come out of it on her own. Which didn't take long as they caught sight of Inferno flying through the air.
BACK TO THE BATTLE
Inferno had managed to regain control of himself and instantly halted in the air. " You worthless scum, how dare you assault me!" He yelled as looked down at Sonic, now levitating with what seemed to be fire from his feet.
Hearing this Sonic just glared at him. "You really need to get used to that, cause I'm not even half way done beating on you yet."
Hearing this drove Inferno to the deep end. No one had ever been so bold as to challenge him let alone attack him. He lived with the thought that all those not in his family were nothing but trash that hadn't even the right to look in his general direction, let alone touch him. An now some blue rodent from another world just comes out and stomps all over his belief? There was no way he would be shown any mercy after this.
"You have really annoyed me now rodent. I will enjoy watching as your carcass will be burnt into nothing but ash." Inferno said he raised his hands to his faces level.
Sonic looked at this with shock. Sure he had expected him to get angry after being hit with that kick to the jaw, but right now, Inferno looked like some one who had just been shown the ultimate disrespect. An Sonic was sure he hadn't done much to warrant that look, well, nothing of that magnitude yet. Sonic was about to comment on this but was quickly silenced by shock as he looked back at Inferno.
Inferno's hands were now covered in intense flames. Flames so hot in fact that they were distorting the air around them. A fact Sonic to full note and responded to by quickly starting to run.
"Burning Rain!" Inferno roared as his began loosing several soccer ball sized fire balls down towards Sonic.
"Whoa!" Sonic yelled as he dodged the first four, but then one fire ball almost grazed him and hit the car sized rock.
Sonic then looked down at the spot that the fire ball had landed in. The fire ball had not only smashed the rock but it also left a crater in the ground that seemed to have no bottom. "Dang, that one was close."
Sonic than took a second to look around himself.
He had indeed dodged all of Inferno's attacks but the effect they left behind was still pretty shocking. From those few fire balls, he had pretty much turned half of the once stunning court yard of the castle, to a glorified smoking flat with Swiss cheese holes littering the ground. Sonic then looked up and saw one of the fire balls had come close to the spot where Blaze and Magma were spectating.
"I need to take this fight elsewhere, otherwise this hot head might level the whole castle." Sonic thought to himself taking a quick look at Blaze before turning back to face his opponent.
"Do you get it now Sonic? I am Inferno, the fire that breaks through all that stand against me. An now you will feel my force." He boasted as he began charging more fire balls.
"Hmph, do you ever stop praising yourself? If your so superior...than prove it." Sonic said as he sped off in a blur of blue light further out towards the open land.
Inferno instantly gave chase as he levitated after him his hands still a flame. "You won't get away!"
BACK IN THE CASTLE
Blaze and Magma gazed on as Sonic and Inferno ran off.
"Hmm, there changing the field up a bit huh? That's a pretty foolish decision considering they are heading towards nothing but open field, Sonic will have no where to hide from brother. I wonder what he's thinking?" Magma questioned as she held her gaze on the two disappearing figures.
"He's trying to protect us." Blaze stated now standing again.
Magma looked at Blaze with question evident in her eyes. "Are you serious? In such an intense battle he is trying to protect others...interesting. Either he's crazy or way to soft."
"Well, that's just the kind of guy Sonic is. Always trying to protect others." Blaze said in a soft tone as she thought about it.
She had knew she was right in thinking Sonic wanted to protect her and everyone else in the castle the moment their eyes locked for that quick second. She would have rather-ed Sonic just forget about her and save himself, but she knew full well that wasn't his style. Blaze continued to ponder her thoughts for a moment until she was startled by Magma jumping to the ground. Earning a, "what are you doing?" from Blaze.
"Isn't it obvious? I'm going to go follow them. It's been a long time since I've witnessed a fight like this. An I don't want to miss a think." Magma said with her evil grin as she dashed off in the direction Sonic and Inferno had gone in.
Blaze seen this and had no idea what to think. "Should I go along too? Would I be able to help Sonic? Would I just end up hurting him more? No, I can't doubt now. Sonic needs my help, and I'm done failing him." Blaze was still a bit unsure of herself, but being cautious and closed off was in her nature so this was to be expected. Yet this time she ignored the part of her that screamed to rethink this action and just went with her instincts for once, no doubt something she would get Sonic for influencing her with later.
An without another second to waste she dashed off right behind Magma.
MILES FROM THE CASTLE IN A WIDE OPEN CLEARING.
Sonic had finally come to a stop. Breathing heavily, holding his a hand over his left shoulder trying to fight back the urge to yell in pain. He had just nearly evaded another one of Inferno's fire balls but that last one grazed him and had left quite the wound.
"Dang it, I was to careless. I probably should have considered running to a different spot. Instead of leading him to an open area where I have absolutely no cover at all." Sonic thought to himself as he glared up at Inferno.
He was still levitating a good 30 feet above him, his hands still charged with fire. Even though Sonic was still quite angry, he couldn't help but be impressed by Inferno's ability to float like that. Even though Blaze was able to levitate as well, she was nowhere near able to get as high or maintain her altitude like him.
"What's the matter Sonic you look tired, do you finally understand the difference between us?" Inferno smirked as he looked down at him and on him, but he did that to everyone so no big shock there right?
Sonic just smirked and rolled his shoulder a bit cracking it at the same time. "The difference between us? Yea I figured that out the moment we started this fight."
"I see, so you've wised up a bit have you, smart thinking. You know this has been entertaining for me, so I tell you what, beg me for mercy, swear to me your allegiance, and you may live to be my subordinate." Inferno said with a wicked scowl on his face.
He could feel his on aura now flowing. An aura that had frightened many a warrior into bowing at his feet in seconds. An from his vantage point, no doubt he would expect just as quick a response from Sonic.
Sonic looked up at him than lowered his head. "You know, your right. Being weaker, one should be smart enough to give up and except that offer in a fight he can't possible win."
Just as Sonic had said this Magma and Blaze appeared about a few yards away. Close enough to see and hear the action, yet far away enough to not be caught in it. An just in time to hear Inferno speak
"Well, what are you waiting for Sonic? Start begging." He said arms now folded at his chest a triumphant smirk on his face.
Blaze gazed on in shock at this. Many things were racing through her mind. Should she be happy about this, will Sonic give up? Yet it was all silenced with Sonic's next sentence.
"I said that it was only natural for the weaker one to admit defeat in a fight he can't win. An that statement was directed towards you Inferno, after all you are weaker than me." Sonic said now rubbing his nose in his usual way.
Everyone was taken by surprise at this. Though it caused a slight chuckle from Blaze, deep down she had seen it coming. This was Sonic after all, and it would be a dry day under the sea before he would bow to the likes of her brother.
Inferno listened to this and at once began to steam. Never before had some one been foolish enough to oppose him. Never before had someone been naive enough to attack him. An above all, never before had someone been stupid enough to say he was weak.
"You piece of trash, I will show how much more powerful I am!" Inferno yelled as he started letting off more fire balls Sonic's way.
Seeing this as his cue to get moving again Sonic started to run again.
Sonic instantly began to dive and roll several times in order to dodge the shots that were coming his way. One aimed at his head and he quickly ducked under it. Another came towards his legs and he instantly jumped out of the way. Then one more came at his body and Sonic jumped and twisted quickly in the air to avoid it.
Inferno watched as Sonic dodged all this and became even more angry. Never had he seen some one fast enough to dodge so many of his attacks all at once. He was a bit shocked by this, yet he than came up with a plan.
"If I can't hit him while he's moving, than I will just have to slow him down." He said as he started shooting off several more fire balls in every direction.
Sonic seen this and was quite curious. "Looks like I may have drove him a bit to far, he's not even aiming anymore." Sonic thought as he continued to evade.
Yet as he wondered what was going on Blaze and Magma had already figured out what this meant.
"Looks like Sonic hasn't noticed. I wonder how he will be able to deal with this one?" Magma said as she let out a smirk.
Blaze noticed this as well and instantly began to warn Sonic. "Sonic look out there's more to this attack than you think!" She shouted quickly getting his attention, but it was already to late as the true nature of the attack made itself none to him.
"What the, what's going on?" Was all Sonic could say as he stopped and looked around.
He was now surrounded by fire balls lining the ground with no place left to run or dodge to. He right now he could not deny it, but would hate himself for saying this later. "Dang it, trapped like a rat!"
"So you've finally noticed have you, that was all a ploy to trap you and cut off any chance you had of escape." Inferno said as he now put his arms up out at his sides, causing five fire balls to appear floating around him.
Sonic looked at this with shock. "There's noway this can be good."
Inferno now glared at Sonic. "This is the end for you, now die blue insect!" He stated as he launched all five of the fire balls at Sonic.
Sonic looked up and than began to turn to his sides hopping to find some way out of this. It only took a second for him to realize, he had no way out. An with that the balls of fire slammed into him, covering Sonic completely.
Blaze gasped as she seen this. "No Sonic!" She yelled as she tried to run to help him, but as soon as she moved she found herself stopped.
"Don't be anymore stupid then you already have. He was just hit with one of Inferno's worst attacks. What do you think you can do accept make brother take out the rest of his anger on you," Magma spoke looking her in the eye.
Blaze looked back and caught her gaze. She was speechless, was there really nothing she could do at this moment. This thought started to haunt her until she heard something.
"Dang, it's hot down her." A voice spoke out causing everyone to look around in an effort to locate the source. They all than looked down at the pile of fire that covered Sonic, yet just as they did the fire began to move.
"This is impossible, there's no way he could be alive after that." Inferno said as he gazed at the flames.
"Amazing." Magma countered as the fire started to rise.
"Sonic!" Said Blaze with joy.
"Man, that was close. But come on did you really think I would go down that easy?" Sonic said now carrying a massive fire ball over his head.
He stood up from under the flames with almost no signs of damage. He had a small burn mark on the side of his right cheek, along with a tiny amount of dried blood on the crook of his mouth. Yet besides that he looked completely fine, a smirk proving the fact.
They all gawked at Sonic with utter surprise. "How is this possible, you should be dead. How are you able to hold onto my fire like that?" Inferno questioned unsure if what he was seeing was the truth. Though to be frank he had hopped this was simply a mirage caused by the fire or something.
Sonic just looked up at him and let his smirk grow. "Curious huh? Well it's pretty simple even you should understand it. I have the ability to control the wind and as such I can manipulate it into shapes in order to help me."
Everyone still had a confused look about them as if Sonic were speaking quadratic equations to a bunch of 3year olds. So seeing as how things were seeming a bit awkward he figured he better simplify his explanation.
"Seeing as how you still look confused I'll just show you." Sonic said as held up the fire ball with one hand. Showing that it was floating above his grasp being supported by a layer of wind.
To say they were all stunned by what they saw would be an understatement.
"Interesting, Sonic you keep on surprising me." Magma spoke.
"Amazing, Sonic, but I'm just glad your safe." Blaze said slightly turning away. She was indeed impressed but her main concern was that Sonic was ok.
Sonic picked up on Blaze's last few words and smiled at her. "Thanks Blaze, but I'm not through yet." an with that Sonic directed his attention back towards the source of all this.
Inferno then cringed as Sonic started to speak.
"Now don't think I forgot about you big guy. Here's a little present to show you how warm and fuzzy I am when your around." He said as he reared back and hurled the huge fire ball right at Inferno.
Inferno was surprised by this but had no time to dodge it as he had let his guard down slightly when Sonic got back up. So there was only one thing left for him to do. An with that notion Inferno brought his hands forward and prepared for impact.
Instantly the fire ball slammed into him.
Yet Inferno held the ball back. The struggle was intense, it looked like a small sun was being pushed back by a single person. This continued for another few seconds before Inferno had finally had his fill. Then with one last heave, the ball of fire was thrown into the sky were it soon dissipated.
Inferno then started to speak as he looked at were the ball had vanished. "I admit you caught me off guard with that last trick, but don't think I will-" He was soon cut off again as he turned around to see Sonic right above him in the air.
"Come on, did you really think I was just going to sit there and wait?" Sonic said as he brought his leg down in a powerful ax kick on Inferno.
Yet he was shocked to see that Inferno had brought both his forearms up to block it. "Why no I didn't expect you to just sit there."
Sonic had a look of utter shock on his face as this happened. Though unfortunately for him, Inferno did not simply stop there.
"Uh oh." Was all that came from Sonic. For In one quick action Inferno grabbed Sonic by his leg and hurled him higher into the air.
Sonic flew up at least 200 feet into the sky as everyone watched.
"An that's one way to get rid of a mouse problem." Inferno said as he watched Sonic fly off.
The sky was wide open and quite beautiful to say the least, not a cloud in the area, and the air was a perfect temperature were in not for the intense g-force from being thrown pinned on him, it might have actually been a little pleasant...almost. After a moment of soaring, Sonic was able to stop his accent and gain control.
"Nice throw but I wouldn't call it an out of the park just yet." Sonic said as he held all his limbs out in a sky diving like form.
"Inferno looked up at him and smirked. "Still messing around I see, don't you know when the games over?" Inferno said as he took a fighting stance.
"That's weird from the way I see it...over time just kicked in." Sonic said as he straitened himself pulled his limbs in and flew strait towards Inferno.
Inferno laughed as he seen Sonic coming for him. "How stupid, do you honestly think you stand a chance now that you are exposing so many openings?" Inferno then shot off a fire ball at Sonic.
Though with a quick shift to the right Sonic dodged it effortlessly. "I'm not as open in the air as think."
"We will see about that blue one." Inferno growled as he began shoot off a vast amount of fire balls.
Sonic just simply smirked as he began dodging every shot thrown at him. His dodges varied from a simple slide to the left, to a crisscrossing barrel roll that would have stealth jets taking notes.
After a few more seconds Inferno started to get annoyed. "Fine then, since a few projectiles won't work how about a steady stream." An with that said he shot out a burst of fire that would be best compared as a large flamethrower from his hand.
Sonic seen this and was shocked for a moment. He then let out a smile as the flames came to him.
"Alright hot head lets get this party started." Sonic said as he put both his arms forward and dived into the fire.
Inferno than laughed as Sonic was engulfed by the flames where as Magma just stated, "what a shame, and he had such promise to."
Meanwhile Blaze on the other hand just looked at the fire and let out a small smile to herself as she saw the flames begin to swirl.
Inferno then turned to the fire again and yelled, "what?" As he saw something happening.
The flames started to swirl around in a ball like form and suddenly, inside them Sonic could be seen.
"Let's see how ya like this one, Blazing Comet!" Sonic yelled as he than sped through the air , accelerating to a speed that broke the sound barrier.
Inferno had no time to respond as Sonic slammed into him and the two hurdled towards the ground. Magma and Blaze watched in awe as they soon crashed into the planet. Causing an explosion with enough force to actually pass for a comet crashing.
The force of the impact set of a huge gust of wind that blew at Magma and Blaze forcing them to shield themselves with their arms up front.
"Impressive looks and power." Magma said.
Blaze just looked at her and growled. It was bad enough all this was happening, but Magma was only making it worst with her comments. A thing Blaze did not need to deal with at the moment.
Then after another moment the blast subsided leaving nothing but a large pile of smoke before them. An before they could get a good look into it, two figures jumped out of the smoke landing on opposite sides of the 30 foot wide crater that had been made. Upon closer inspection they were able to make out who was who, but neither looked to cheerful at the moment.
On the left stood a slightly burned up Sonic. His jacket had rips in the sleeves, his pants had tears at both knees, and his belt was now tattered. Along with the blood now dripping from both sides of his mouth, one could only guess how he was feeling at the moment.
On the right side stood a scratched up Inferno. His white jacket now had tattered sleeves, his white pants were covered in scratches and rips along the legs. Along with blood running down his forehead. It wasn't hard to tell from this sight that he was not pleased.
Inferno started to stand up strait dusting the dirt off himself. "I must say Sonic that was indeed an impressive display. It's been a long time since I have been pushed this far in combat."
Sonic turned his head to the side and quickly spit out a bit of blood."Thanks, but forgive me I don't consider the praise of some one that hurts his sister like that to highly."
Inferno then glanced back at Sonic and shock his head in dismissal. "What do you know of my ways in which to deal with my disgraceful sister? I have been nothing if not merciful to her this entire time, even in the forms of punishment."
Sonic now narrowed his glare at Inferno. "You really are sick if that's your idea of merciful punishment. I honestly couldn't care less about the honor of your royal whatever, but someone like you has no right to judge Blaze like that. An I would rather die than follow a monster like you."
Inferno glared at Sonic. "Well if that's the way you want it then fine. I'll kill with one of my most powerful attacks!" Inferno yelled as his fiery aura began to appear and flare wildly, allowing him to charge power.
Sonic glared back at Inferno. "There's no way I would let myself lose to the likes of you. Bring it on!" Sonic yelled as his aura of wind began to kick up and blow out as he to stored up energy too.
At that he two auras began to blast forth with wind and fire all around them. This force was stretching even as far as the castle causing the very area to become unstable and shaky.
"This is intense. Brother is really taking this fight seriously." Magma said as she looked on.
"This is unreal, not only is brother showing his power, but Sonic is matching it as well. When did Sonic get so strong?" Blaze thought to herself as she gazed too.
Not to long after all this Sonic and Inferno had finished charging their energy. An now stared at one another.
"Prepare to see the end result of all that oppose me Sonic." Inferno claimed as he knelt down putting both hands on the ground. Once he did this the area around him began to become covered in flames.
"Just watch this." Sonic said as he raised his right hand into the air causing a pillar of wind to form atop it. Though as he did this a large amount of black clouds began to cover the sky over him.
The two then locked eyes with each other one more time before they attacked.
"Hades Crush!" Inferno roared as a surge of powerful flames flowed along the ground towards Sonic.
"Heaven Slicer!" Sonic roared as he swung his right arm bringing down a giant mass of wind formed in the shape of a blade aimed at Inferno, slicing the very clouds in half as it fell.
With in the blink of an eye the two moves clashed with tremendous force blasting out wind and fire in every direction.
There attacks then began to struggle wildly. Every moment the battle got more intense, one second Inferno looked like he would gain the upper hand, the next it seemed as if Sonic had taken control. This battle was truly one that would be classified as monstrous because of these attacks. Their clash continued on for another few minutes until they decided to bring this to an end.
"I can't believe he is able to counter my attack. This is an outrage, I can't let this happen. Do you hear me Sonic, I going to crush you here and now!" Inferno yelled as he poured even more power into the move.
"Give me your best shot Inferno, I will not lose!" Sonic yelled back as he put everything he had left into his attack.
This surge in power caused both techniques to increase in size, making there battle even more of a violent bout then before. As they poured on the power neither would give in and that was evident by the fierce looks on their faces. Then suddenly, the clash was settled, because a massive explosion had set off when both moves became critical.
The two fighters yelled out in pain as they were both blown away to the left and right.
Magma look on in utter shock as she watched this all take place. She had no idea that things would have escalated to such a level.
Blaze was pushed back a bit by the explosion but due to her and Magma keeping their distance she was merely thrown back a few feet. She then looked on at the area still surging with power as the moves force still affected it. Once the blast had subsided Blaze was able to get her bearings. Yet as she looked around, all she seen was a shocked Magma and a massive crater. It then hit her once nothing else came into view. "Sonic!"
MILES AWAY FROM THE BATTLE FIELD.
Inferno laid on the ground a good 2 miles from his previous spot. His condition was not to different from before but he did have a few new cuts all over his body. He was deep in the forest surround by a few broken trees. An was now face down in a groove in the dirt most likely made from his crash. Though after a second he began to rise.
"Ah, what happened to me?" Inferno said to himself as he looked around.
It didn't take long for him to realize his current state, and once he did his anger peaked.
"That blue rat, he did this to me. Unforgivable, completely unforgivable, I will not let this dishonor go with out consequence, no more games...I will kill him!" Inferno yelled out in rage.
ELSEWHERE.
Sonic had crashed into what would seem as if the side of a mountain on the other side of the forest. His body was pretty banged up but otherwise he to hadn't sustained much noticeable damage. Sonic than noticed that his body was now slammed into a crater on a large rock in the mountain. An after a few seconds of pulling he was finally able to free himself from it.
"Well, that was intense, that Inferno was stronger than I thought. An from what I can tell it doesn't look like this is over just yet...dang, this is going to be a long fight." Sonic said as he laid flat on his face and slowly began to pick himself up.
"I hope Blaze is alright." Sonic thought to himself as he started to walk back to the battle field holding his left shoulder.
Yup, this fight was going to be a hard one of that he had no doubt.
Alright everyone my first update of 2011. Hope you didn't find this one to boring, but just so you know this fight is far from over. An sorry if this update seemed a little late, I had meant to say the update would be around 1/5/2011 in my last chapter but I accidentally wrote the 4th. Well that's about it for this one guys.
So until the next chapter...STAY THIRSTY MY FRIENDS.
