Chapter 12: Alexi, The Lightening Strike

The next room Ryu entered was a larger arena with not much in it, so he figured that this must be Alexi's choice of battleground. Ryu was right as Alexi entered the room already in fiend form with his wings trailing behind him. "A fine choice of battleground is it not? This place seems peaceful enough to make a suitable grave for you" Alexi said with a calm, even voice. "Sorry but the result will not change this time around Alexi, you will once again fall before me. This time though just stay dead the world is better without you" Ryu said with distaste coating his words. "Ryu the age of fiends controlling the world has come just accept it rather than throw your life away" Alexi said getting ready to fight. "This time I will make sure you can't come back again!" Ryu said before he charged Alexi. Ryu knew Alexi was very fast but even he was surprised at the speed Alexi displayed. Everytime Ryu rushed Alexi he moved away and turned past Ryu on many occasions, this obviously frustrated Ryu. One of these time Alexi attacked him as he turned by shocking him as he passed to add insult to injury. This a bit too much so Ryu turned his fury loose on Alexi, but no matter how fast Ryu swung his swords he was always a little late to hit Alexi. Ryu knew that if this kept up he would most likely not make it, so he just tried to set up a defensive stance to observe the movements and attacks of his foe. Knowing it would hurt did little to prepare the super ninja for the pain that was in store for him. Alexi Grabbed him and shocked him then slammed him into the ground then threw him back a bit, he did this a few times. He was also caught in an electric tornado a couple times, and was shocked majorly as Alexi created a shield of lightening around himself and turned that upon Ryu. Ryu had by now figured out a plan he was also in pain, so when Alexi came in for another attack and he knew it was do or die. Just before Alexi reached him Ryu used his Art of Inferno ninpo magic, the backlash harmed Alexi a bit but stopped him and stunned him a bit. Then Ryu threw the fireball at him which hit and disoriented Alexi, and Ryu grinned the tables had turned.

Ryu went towards Alexi and started to slash at him with ferocity, until Alexi shocked him and threw him back, but the damage had been inflicted. Alexi was not moving as fast and Ryu was better able to block and dodge the attacks however the lightening bolts that were thrown out occasionally got through. Ryu was also able to start countering the attacks of Alexi and giving more damage of his own. Now Alexi was flustered at the new found strength of his opponent after the beating he had given him! Ryu started to boldly throw attacks at Alexi who then would dodge and try to counter but Ryu was a bit smart for that game. This was sitting well with Alexi because now he was the one in trouble. Ryu was not going to relent in his brutal assault on this nefarious fiend. So Alexi decided if he was going to die he would inflict as much damage as he possibly could. Ryu got hit by the shock shield a few times, but in time was able to predict that attack as well. At this point it was over, it was only a matter of time for Alexi to fall. Once the final blow had been struck Alexi stood there for a moment and then glared with hatred at Ryu then fell forward. "I may fall but the others will kill you foolish ninja scum, I am disgraced once more by you" Alexi spat these words out like venom before he coughed up blood and then laid still and moved no more. "I had known from the start that I might not come back from this but not before all of you are sent back to hell" Ryu said as he turned around and walked downward nearing the end of this hellish trial.
