The flames Meggan made were not as intense as Rachel's but she made them as
strong as she could and she hurled them at everyone, mos the blows going
awry and striking down buildings in the process.
Shadowcat was struck in the back, smashing her against a car, the smell of burnt flesh rising into the air almost at once. Meggan aimed more fireballs at her but Nightcrawler teleported and grabbed Shadowcat away from there before she was killed.
"Stay down!" he said, looking around. "Where the hell is SkyElf if he came with StarPryde? We could use some help here!" Shadowcat winced as she sat up and she gasped, pointing over Nightcrawler's shoulder.
"Look!" she shouted. When Nightcrawler looked, he saw SkyElf fighting with Hauptmann Englande savagely as fire rained all around them.
"Ach, verdammt!" he hissed, teleporting away. When he reappeared behind Hauptmann Englande, he slashed his sword at his hand and stopped him from landing a blow on SkyElf's face.
"Get out of here!" SkyElf shouted as Hauptmann Englande turned on Nightcrawler.
"Your nose is bleeding and so is your eyebrow!" Nightcrawler shot back. "You need help!"
"Nein, Hauptmann Englande is mine and mine alone!" SkyElf said. "Go help the others with Meggan before she burns down the city!" Dodging another blow from Hauptmann Englande, Nightcrawler nodded and teleported away, leaving SkyElf to deal with Hauptmann Englande.
"Do you really think you can beat me?" Hauptmann Englande asked with a sneer. SkyElf spit out some blood and wasn't surprised when he saw a tooth in the small puddle.
"I do not think. I know I can." He said, jabbing at his side. Hauptmann Englande punched him in the side of his face as the blade grazed his side. SkyElf staggered back a few steps and was barely able to dodge a follow up blow.
"You remember that first night I took you?" he asked, smiling evilly at him. "When I took your sweet lithe body to me?"
"How could I forget? I thought that you needed that special ointment they have to increase your size!" SkyElf snarled, letting his emotions get the best of him. The two threw a few more blows before they went back to circling each other, SkyElf with his teeth bared in a feral snarl.
"You couldn't stop me then! You never could stop me when I wanted it from you! Now why was that? Was it because you liked it?" Hauptmann Englande asked. "That's it isn't it? You liked it! You enjoyed it when I took you to my bed with force!"
Screaming like an animal, SkyElf charged at Hauptmann Englande, his rapiers raised and ready to pierce into him. It only took Hauptmann a few swift movements to knock the rapiers from his hands, trip him, and grab him by the throat tightly. He held SkyElf with his head at an angle and on his knees.
"You should have learned how to control your emotions better! Now I'm going to snap your neck!" he hissed into SkyElf's pointed ear.
Suddenly, Hauptmann Englande realized that the sound of battle had stopped. Turning his head, he saw his wife standing beside her twin of this world, her hands over her mouth in worry. The rest of Excalibur stood, looking at him with SkyElf at his mercy.
"Let him go." Nightcrawler said slowly, holding out a hand. "Just let him go, Hauptmann Englande."
"Drop down your weapons!" Hauptmann Englande ordered. "Turn off the Phoenix and throw the rapiers and daggers over here!" They did so swiftly, the blades gliding over. Looking down at the weapons, Hauptmann Englande smiled up at Excalibur.
"Now let him go!" Nightcrawler said.
"All right." Hauptmann Englande nodded.
Before anyone could stop him, he snapped SkyElf's neck and SkyElf's body crumpled at his feet.
