"We will see about that." Sorath said, "Now, on to round two! Oh, this should be an interesting battle indeed! Alessandro will be fighting Apophis!"
The two bladers knew what to do. They launched their beys: Paradise Virgo and Caldera Draconis.
"I don't know what you are." Alessandro said, "But, I will cleanse Earth of your presence and send you to Hell!"
The beys collided, but their blades were so long that they didn't touch each other's cores.
"I have been to Hell and back." Apophis chuckled, "There are far worse things awaiting man than death. Come taste what I have seen!"
"No!" Alessando yelled, "Special move: Dies Irae!"
The angelic spirit rose from the Virgo bey and blew its trumpet as the bey turned sideways and began to role like a wheel, but it missed Draconis.
"No!" Alessandro stammered. "At this rate, my blessed beyblade is going to crash into the wall of the stadium!"
The bey spirit of Draconis appeared as a long red dragon and breathed fire on the Virgo bey, melting it. Unlike most bey spirits, this one actually seemed to effect the physical world.
"That's not possible!" Alessandro was freaking out, "Who are you!?"
Apophis threw off his cloak. Beneath, he was clad in black bandages and spiked reptilian bone armor. He had long black claws on his hands and feet and a long thin tail with a scythe-like blade at the tip. His ears were pointed, and his teeth were sharp. He wore a black crown that poked through his bangs. His bangs, which covered one of his bulging bloodshot eyes, were crimson, and the rest of his hair was white.
"I am the Dragon Emperor!" Apophis roared, "And now, I am the king of the undead!"
"I accept my death!" Alessandro couldn't believe his lavender eyes, "Kill me now! I have killed too many people in the name of God, and I do not deserve to live!"
Alessandro unbuttoned his coat and threw it off, revealing the many scars that he had inflicted on himself by practicing Opus Dei. Apophis walked up to him and shoved his tail between Alessandro's ribs, skewering him. With the claws on his hands, he ripped out his entrails and ate them, soaking his hands and face in blood. With a swipe of his tail, he flung Alessandro's disemboweled carcass into the wall of the stadium.
