Chapter 18: VultureVulture and Zero stared into each other's eyes and slowly moved in a circle while still facing each other.
Vulture's double-edged beam saber shun in green and so did Zero's Z-saber.
They studied each other, obviously waiting for the other to make the first move.
Zero decided to make it and dashed at Vulture, who jumped in the air above Zero; performing a complicated summersault and whirled around in the middle, thus landing behind Zero but still facing him.
Vulture then dashed with all of his speed at Zero and tried to slash upwards at him with the bottom blade of the beam saber.
Zero rolled forwards and turned around, then jumping at Vulture he tried to stab Vulture from the air but Vulture blocked it with the upper blade of his beam saber.
Vulture threw Zero to the side and managed to slice Zero's arm with his lower blade.
Zero's wrist was bleeding but Zero did not mind, he jumped backwards and kicked off the wall; slamming into Vulture shoulder first, throwing him to the ground.
Zero tried to stab Vulture while he was down, but Vulture used his wing jetpacks to slip before Zero managed to hit him.
Vulture rolled backwards to his feet and quickly launched an onslaught on Zero, forcing him to wear himself out while trying to block both of his blades.
Zero blocked all of the blows successfully, and evaded the next by using Thoth's technique and stopping time for a second so he could get far enough to sling the chain rod at Vulture.
Vulture ducked and the chain rod passed him and stuck to the wall behind him.
Vulture turned his head to it and then turned back to Zero, who used his distraction and dash-kicked him in the face.
Vulture slumped backwards from the force of the kick but then he rolled backwards and while doing so he kicked Zero's back.
Zero stumbled into the wall and as Vulture stood up, Zero back kicked him in the chest.
Vulture took a step backwards in order to balance himself.
He tried to slash at Zero with his double-edged beam saber but missed as Zero moved aside, avoiding the blades.
Zero then tried to slash him with the Z-saber but Vulture jumped in the air, flapping his wings once and hailing razor sharp metal feathers that came with his latest upgrade.
Zero crossed his hands in front of his face to protect himself and his hands were badly damaged and pierced, but Zero just broke off all of the feathers by knocking his arms from the elbows and up together forcefully.
Vulture started twirling his double-edged beam saber and propelled it directly at Zero.
Zero didn't know what to do, the rotating beam saber blocked every possible escape route so Zero decided to try a desperate move, he raised his shield boomerang and started to charge it.
The saber was almost upon him when he finished charging, he threw the shield boomerang straight at the hilt of the beam saber and knocked it right back at Vulture, who caught it with one hand.
Zero didn't wait for Vulture to recover from the surprise and quickly shot at him with his buster.
Vulture was hit from the bullets but his armor was too powerful for them to actually cause any harm.
Vulture descended and kicked Zero in the face, sending him flying across the room and into the wall.
The corner of Zero's mouth started bleeding, and he slwoly stood up.
He rose up again and shot the metallic feathers at Zero again.
Zero dodged his attack but some feathers slashed his side.
Vulture then descended rapidly and as he landed on the floor he used his jetpacks to propel him forwards, stretching his hands in front of him he pushed Zero through the metal wall with a metallic screech and through about a dozen more before the two exited the complex, at that point Vulture stopped at once letting Zero soar backwards and land on the desert sand.
"Is that all you've got?" He mocked Zero, his voice full of hatred.
"You are weaker than I thought, how on earth did you defeat Harpuia?" Zero asked with a smile as he stood up.
Vulture raised an eyebrow, he obviously had the upper hand and was throwing Zero like a rag doll but still Zero could say something like that? Vulture decided he wasn't going to play with him anymore; he's in for a world of pain.
Vulture sped up to him and kicked his torso, throwing him a few feet away.
Zero landed on the sand, he intentionally let Vulture hurt him so that the frenzy chip would take over.
Zero was now full of his own blood, Vulture himself was not even injured.
Vulture looked at Zero as he stood up and then he drew his double-edged beam saber again.
"Die fool!" Vulture yelled as he charged towards Zero, about to slice him in half.
He stopped dead in his tracks and blinked, how was it possible? There were two Zeros now staring at him.
"But...?" Vulture said and shook his head strongly. "Poseidon's technique." He muttered and flapped his wings twice, metallic feathers flew from his wings, that with each feather attack became more and more bat-like.
The feather hit the two Zeros but only injured one, as Vulture noted. Vulture charged at the real Zero and tried a hook to the face.
Zero side stepped and tripped Vulture, who fell headfirst into the sand.
Vulture rolled forwards after he landed and jumped into the air.
He swooped down and picked up Zero, flying higher and higher before descending rapidly towards the desert.
When he was less than eight feet before colliding with the ground, Vulture released Zero and Zero crashed into the ground.
"You little maggot. You got what you deserved." Vulture said as he floated in the air.
He heard a loud scream from downstairs and saw a large red flame zooming straight at him.
He narrowly dodged the crimson flame, quickly moving sideways to avoid its trajectory.
The flame did not discourage, it pursued him and he had to dodge it frantically.
He decided it would be safer to land on the ground but to his surprise the scarlet blaze landed in front of him and stood still.
"Zero?" Vulture asked.
"Not anymore." Zero's voice replied as the flame shot at him at such a speed that it was almost impossible to avoid.
Vulture jumped to the air but the flame came right after him, catching him unprepared Zero delivered a vicious uppercut and then he rose above Vulture and double fisted him into the ground.
Vulture crashed into the sand and felt his body aching.
"That's it, you think you're so powerful but I'll show you power!" Vulture said and shot at Zero, only to receive a hook to the face. The blow was so powerful that it broke the front part of Vulture's helmet.
Zero finally gazed upon the beautiful face of the reploid; it was flawless and gorgeous.
Zero's anger faded almost immediately, he stared at Vulture and asked him,
"Why would you want to conceal your face?"
"You know nothing! When I was created, there was an explosion they became deformed. I have asked for shelter but no one would give it to me because of my hideous face. I dared not look at them, it seems that they repaired themselves over time but I couldn't bring myself to look at it." Vulture said sorrowfully.
"You will pay for this Zero. I swear I will destroy you and the guardians. For seeing my face you will pay the ultimate price. I will kill you!" Vulture said and transferred away.
Zero stared for a second where Vulture was and then started to walk towards Neo-Arcadia, since his comm. was damaged by Vulture's feather attack.
