Manny was pissed off, he blamed it on the loss of his little cub friend, but…the rage he felt was too much to be just that. It was like there had been a rage festering inside him for months, but he had only known about Slayer for a short time. Yet somehow the sight of the man enraged and stressed the young vigilante to the max. He was so weirdly upset that he was starting to wonder why he hadn't turned into…that thing he became back in the forest. But, he supposed that was a different kind of anger. During that it was like he had become overcome by sorrow. That anger was cold and blinding. This anger was burning and focused.
El Tigre flipped onto a cage, avoiding a gunshot from his opponent. He had to get the gun away from him. Manny's belt gave him better defense, but a bullet to the head was still a bullet to the head. Another gun shot was sent his way, he flipped off the back of the cage.
Perhaps not his finest idea.
Slayer kicked the cage, sending it slamming into Manny. The kid stumbled back and acted like he was falling, but as he did, he shot his grapping hook at a light pole and pulled himself up and into the air. Slayer shot a bullet at the chain, but the bullet just shattered on impact. Manny sored through the air, flipped over the man, and landed behind him. Tigre quickly spun around and clawed the mans back.
Slayer yelled in pain and spun around, his eyes an evil red. He raised his gun to shoot, Manny jumped out of the way as he pulled the trigger. Nothing happened.
El Tigre laughed with a smirk; "Out of bullets?"
The man growled, his eyes turning an evil red. Out of his hand he shot a beam of black and red energy at Manny, who jumped out of the way, landing on all fours. Slayer moved his hand in an arc shape, trying to hit the kid with the beam. Manny cartwheeled out of the way.
"WHY WERE YOU EVEN USING A GUN IF YOU COULD JUST DO THAT?" El Tigre yelled at the man as he jumped around, avoiding the death beam.
Manny wasn't sure exactly what those powers were, but they were blasts of red/black energy that splashed, almost like blood.
The man started shooting the beam out of his other hand as well, making the range and width much worse. Manny flipped away as Slayer whipped the bloody like substance his direction, but it caught the edge of his ankle. Suddenly he felt paralyzed and fell to the ground, bouncing off a crate and into the dirt.
Manny tried to move, but he couldn't. It was like he had been electrocuted, but if electricity was cold. Slayer walked towards him, changing the aim of the beam directly at the kid. Manny struggled as his vision went black and his body started to feel cold. He felt like he was drowning, like his lungs were filled with syrup. And he felt far away, as if he had been teleported to a world of screaming black.
Just then it all stopped, he could see and hear again, he could finally move again. Manny sat up and began coughing up the strange black and red substance that had filled his lungs, which was evaporating as he did so. He looked over to see Slayer on his knees, struggling to breath as dark red steam seemed to leave his body.
"My power…?" Slayer muttered confusedly as he looked as his own shaking hands.
El Tigre didn't know exactly what just happened, but he sure was glad it had. And he sure as hell wasn't going to waste the opportunity. He quickly clawed into the ground for an anker point, and then swung his leg across the dirt, creating a dust cloud.
Slayer braced for the boy to come slashing through the cloud, but was unprepared when El Tigre came from above with a drill kick. But the man quickly jumped back, avoiding the sharp spinning figure.
Manny back flipped out of the way as Slayer threw knives his direction, shredding a tent behind him.
"BASTARD! YOU'RE GOING DOWN!" Tigre snapped as he shot a grapping hook at the man.
The man grabbed it and whipped Manny over his shoulder and into a pile of crates, splinters of wood sent shooting out as a dust cloud formed from the impact. No sound of movement could be heard from within the rubble.
"Boy, why do you care? You owe nothing to these beasts of nature." Slayer muttered as he walked towards the cloud of dirt
Suddenly a crate was thrown out of the dirt, hitting the man and sending him stumbling backwards. Manny came shooting out the cloud immediately after the crate, tacking the man across the area and into a tent, his tail wrapped around a tusk. Slayer had fallen to the ground, Manny gabbed the tusk from his tail and shoved it into the man's shoulder, who yelled out in pain.
"Why do I care? That's a good question, I've actually been asking myself that." El Tigre was now on top of the man, repeatedly punching his face.
"First off, you hurt my friends!" A punch.
"Second off, you're an environmental nightmare!" Another hit.
"and finally, I'm fucking El Tigre!" he snapped with another punch, as he started to sound not quite like himself. His eyes glowed an angry green.
"There is a certain spirit out there that's pissed off at you!" Another punch, the man was starting to bleed.
"He's seen what you've done, all his kin you've killed!" Punch
"and for the sick selfish reasons you've done it for!" The man was starting to become bloody and bruised.
"and I'm feeling every bit of it!" El Tigre stopped and stared at the beaten man beneath him, seemingly unconscious.
"And I'm…I'm feeling all of it…I'm feeling his pain…and It's taking me over." Manny muttered quietly, snapping out of his daze. He looked at the man beneath him solemnly. This fight was over.
Just then the man snapped awake and slashed Tigre across the chest with a large wooden shard. Manny yelled in pain. Slayer grabbed him by the back of his shirt and threw him across the room into a shed of some kind, the boy hitting something hard.
Manny felt his wrist break on the impact, he held it in pain as he struggled to stand up. He could see the silloet of Slayer walking towards him. Manny looked around to see what he could use. There was an electrical box behind him, wires, and some pbc pipes.
"Boy, you should have kept hitting." Slayer stated darkly.
Manny spit out blood from his mouth as he glared at the man.
"You're right, I should have…" and he meant it.
Suddenly Slayer was a lot closer, he grabbed El Tigre by the neck and shoved him into the wall behind him. The man pulled out a knife and prepared to shove it in the boys' skull.
"Any last words, El Tigre?" The man asked menacingly.
"Yeah." Manny smirked. "I hope this really fucking hurts." And he dug his claws into Slayer, and shot his other hands into the electrical box.
Manny's vision went white.
I will fully admit that Slayer is not a well thought out character. He is more the plot that a thought out character XD so he's pretty bland. I brought too many characters into this story XD and too many plot lines. But, future stories will have scripts, so they should be better.
