Chapter II: Enter Fist the Amphibian
There she was; a pink hedgehog named Amy. She helped him up, blood dripping from his totally white body mid body. "What happened? All I was doing was taking a walk in the morning when, there in front of me, was a large crater!" Amy exclaimed, brushing him off. She got a bit close to him, her nose to his, smiling and stepping back. His senses clicked; turning his head to his right. Amy also turned and there hovering in the air, was a very, very large hovercraft of some sort.
"Someone is much stronger than both of us, Amy. Get down!" Claw exclaimed, pushing her down onto the ground, a missile slamming into his body. He shook violently the flame from the missile bursting on his spike- less back. With a loud scream he threw his arms out and the flame absorbed into his body. Amy stared in amazement, his eyes totally white, pupils gone.
"FOOLS! Whoever you are, which I think I know, I've told you to leave me alone!" Claw yelled, his last word holding out for a prolonged time while the cement of the streets shook like mere waves in an ocean. The hovercraft wobbled and a gargantuan sphere surrounded Claw, eyes now normal. "I dare you to try and destroy me." Claw grumbled, walking forward with bullets and explosions deflecting off the of the energy sphere around his body. "What?" Claw asked himself, watching a large door slide open from the bottom of the craft.
"We will be glad to destroy you. In fact, we will unleash our new creation; meet Fist the Amphibian!" A loud voice boomed on a speakerphone. An entity jumped out from the door and landed in a crouched position, forearm on his knee and left hand put on the ground. Slowly he got up and waved a short gesture with his hand, causing the craft to withdraw. The creature stood, one large spike hanging down from his head; black eyes, green skin with yellow long rectangles shaping his stomach area, and boots just like Sonic's. Claw and the new enemy glared at each other, fists clenched and shaking.
"I see you'll find me quite formidable." Fist mentioned, his fist glowing just like Claw's had before.
"Formidable, but not formidable enough." Claw replied, his fist also glowing only golden instead of Fist's red. The two scream, firing gargantuan blasts of energy at each other, one golden and one red. Claw grunted, the power of the blast already overwhelming his own. Knowing his own blast couldn't withstand Fist's, he let go and side stepped, barely missing the opposing shot. Fist also let go and jumped at Claw yelling a battlecry.
Claw got into a fighting stance locked hands with Fist as if in a strength test. Quickly it ended with Fist tripping Claw onto the ground. Rolling to the right, and just missing an oncoming punch Claw jumped up and tried to roundhouse kick Fist; yet strangely Fist caught it and laughed. It's not possible. The Government decides to make a creature, I mean person, thing, more powerful then I? Claw asked himself while trying to get his foot loose from his enemy's grip.
By putting all his weight to his right side he spun, kicking Fist straight in the face. That officially caused him to loose grip of Claw's leg movements; Claw catching his feet and getting back into his fighting stance. "You've got spunk for a weaker life form." Fist laughed as his hands began to transform into solid metal. The two jumped once again at each other, Claw getting hit straight in the gut. His head was down, so easily Fist elbowed the back of his head.
Spiraling downward he regained his center of gravity and became right side up once more. Claw's feet mashed against the ground, the streets once again waving like water; also, he took advantage of his force and jetted back upward toward Fist. "I won't lose!" He screamed while flying back upward. A swift flying sidekick caught Fist off guard, and then an energy blast to the head knocked him into a large skyscraper. Claw felt his energy slipping; he had already wasted so much energy trying to fight this new monstrosity the government had made to mock him.
I can feel his life force. He's so powerful, it's uncanny! He's not even weakened by the slightest bit! His energy compared to mine is a very, very large gap! He thinks, looking at the broken and shattered skyscraper, waiting Fist to come rushing back. As if reading his thoughts, there came Fist, rushing back with his left fist extended in front of him, obviously showing his next attack as a blind rush into Claw. Claw sunk downward back to solid Earth and sent a blast at Fist's underbelly. Success! The blast hit straight on and allowed him to slowly fall to the ground, smoke coming from his body.
When the amphibian landed, he regained balance and his wounds were suddenly healed. "Haven't you figured it out yet Claw? I can regenerate my wounds! That's why I haven't lost ANY life force what-so-ever!" Fist laughed, showing his superiority. Claw was breathing heavily, his energy depleted so much from the oncoming attacks and tactics. Fist slowly walked calmly to Claw; they now engaged punches and blocks (much like Agent Smith and Neo in the Matrix). High blocks, low blocks, side blocks, punches, knife hands, kicks, everything was used to it's limits as the two continued to fight.
A punch came from Fist's metal knuckle and dug deep into Claw's body, blood now coming out. Claw fell to his knees, the pain flowing through his body and his eyesight becoming very blurry. As he looked up he saw Fist energizing an energy sphere at his undefended head. "It all ends here!" The villain exclaimed in happiness. WHAM! Fist fell to the ground as a proud Amy smiled at Claw, mallet in hand and slung over her shoulder.
"Aren't you glad you met me? You'd be dead if it weren't for me!" She gloated, Xs' in Fist's eyes.
"Yeah. I am." Claw replied. She helped him up and put his arm around her shoulder and slowly began carrying back to the only place she could go; the place where most of her friends were . . .
