Chapter 2: A Battle
I do not own Soul Calibur, Prince of Persia, or anything related
He has awaken in a unfamiliar land with a strange man standing beside him. The first thought through his head was were am I. That was quickly replaced with fear of the Dahaka. Once he realized that it was gone he started to wonder who this man was and why this man was so interested in his well being. He then sprung to his feet and did the only thing he could think of.
He drew his swords and pointed one of them at this strange man. "Where have you taken me?" He asked coldly while staring at the man. There was no way he could of gotten this far away in such a short time. That is without some kind of interference. Why would this man take him, what was his motivation?
"I didn't take you anywhere." replied the man who started to reach behind his back. He then pulled out a strange looking weapon. It was simply two sticks held together by a chain. If that was the only weapon he had he will be tasting the blade of the Prince of Persia.
Maxi couldn't believe this man. Maxi came all the way over here just to help this man and all he could do was threaten him with his swords. Maxi was going to show him how he responded to threats.
Maxi Then put on a little show for this man by spinning his Nun Chuku around going behind his back, and across his shoulders multiple times and multiple ways. He then ended it by catching it in his right armpit.
"Are you sure you want to throw away your life?" asked Maxi as he smirked. He could tell this man has never seen anything like him before. But Maxi has only shown him a show. If he thought that was all Maxi had, this fight was over before it had begun.
The prince was impressed, he had no idea that weapon could be used like this man just demonstrated. But he was all style no substance. He couldn't possibly block his blades with that, all the prince had to do was get a solid hit on him.
The man then charged. He brought the blade in his right hand back and swung it towards Maxi's shoulder. Maxi couldn't believe he tried such an obvious attack. Maxi stretched out Soryuju and blocked the blade with the chain on his nun chuku. He then pushed back the blade and made the man back up. He was a fool for trying a attack like that, maybe he wasn't as good as Maxi originally thought.
The prince was dumbfounded. 'He blocked my blade with two sticks and a chain. I can't believe it. This will take all of my strength.' Prince thought to him self. He then formulated a plan he once again charged, but this time before he reached him he performed an ariel and landed right behind the man. He then brought his blade up, but the man was quicker then he thought as he dodged the attack by spinning left and ended up staring the prince in the eyes.
"Who are you?" the man asked.
"You can call me the Prince of Persia. Since you know my name, tell me yours." The Prince replied.
"I've never heard of Persia, but my name is Maxi." and with that Maxi charged. The prince was confused how could he of never heard of Persia. The kingdom was so large. He didn't have time to ponder this though as he then started charging at Maxi. Maxi swung his Nun Chuku horizontally, but the prince ducked under the attack. He then pushed himself up with one arm and swung his blade at Maxi's shins. Maxi was surprised by this but was still able to jump and avoid the attack. While Maxi was in the air he brought Soryuju into the Prince's ribs. The Prince fell onto the ground stomach first, but didn't stay there very long. He quickly pushed himself up and got ready to attack again. 'How can that weapon be that useful? Plus he's almost as quick as me.' The Prince thought to himself. Maxi was already on him as he finished his thought. The Prince then quickly Jumped backwards, doing half a flip, landed on his hands and vaulted himself backwards landing on his feet. As quickly as he landed he lunged his right arm forward sending his sword towards Maxi's chest. Maxi leaned to his left and dodged the sword but before he could recover the Prince brought his sword back towards his body and sent his elbow into Maxi's chest. Maxi was already off balance due to his previous dodge, and this attack sent him stumbling backwards. Maxi then tripped and fell on his ass.
"Huh, you are the quickest fighter I have ever seen. Why have you come here?" Maxi asked as he stood.
"Isn't the better question why have you taken me, and why have you never heard of the great Persia?" The prince answered with another question.
"I promise I haven't taken you anywhere, I didn't even know who you were until you told me. And the is no place I know of called Persia." Maxi answered with a sound of annoyance to his voice. The prince has almost forgotten about the words they exchanged during the battle. He answered his question because he didn't sense any deceit in his voice.
"Do you have a map on which you could show me our current location?" The Prince asked.
"Yeah sure." Maxi said as he walked over to his supplies. He then pulled out his map and showed his where they were.
"This is not right." The Prince stated with panic, "That is where I was before I blacked out. Tell me what do you call the area here?" The prince asked.
"I don't know. All I know is that are some ruins there of some fabulous palaces there." When the Prince heard those words, his heart sank. The area he pointed to was his home, it was Persia.
"What have the sands done to me now."
