Hey guys, is your friendly unbelievable Gwenpool. If you all are wondering what took so long you will have to blame the animemaster for this. Or Barrubo as that is what he calls himself now.
Yea sorry for those that wanted another chapter for this. I was concentrating on my other stories but that will also track back to me at being too lazy to do this.
Not to mention that I have been job hunting for a month now.
You made me wait for months and the only reason you do this is because I finally got myself a sequel!
Yea I know but I would love to say congratulation for your new release. I read the last issue as soon as I can. There isn't that many comic book stores as they used too.
Yea that's the problem in this day and... Wait don't try to change the subject! *Sigh* Anyway it's good to be back and hopefully now Barrubo here is going to do my story more often.
*Cough* No Promises *Cough*
Um… You do know that I can… Nevermind. I think we have this long enough so we will let you guys read the next reaction. Cue the disclaimer.
Deathbattle by Screwattack and Rooster teeth. Gwenpool ;) by Marvel Comics. Street fighter by Capcom and Mortal Kombat by Midway Games.
"So um… who did you call again?" Cecil said in confusion as Gwen laid back into the couch. It has been ten minutes she made that call and now she is waiting for her friend to come.
She chewed some popcorn and counted down with her fingers.

*Knock knock.*
Cecil heard knocking on the window and sees the black spider himself.
"You called over Spiderman!?" Cecil shouted in shock as Gwen chuckles at the hackers reaction.
"The one and only, well the black version anyway. Is that racist I wonder? Oh it doesn't matter so could you let him in please? Thanks." Gwenpool says with Cecil sighing at his partners shenanigans.
Later
"So I came over because you said it was an emergency. But all I am seeing is you eating popcorn like a big show is about to start. And that show is an internet show? Am I getting this so far?" Miles said as he is still uncomfortable with his mask off. But not only did Gwen already told her hacker his secret but also that it would make the authors job more easier. (Whatever that means.)
"Right-e-mondo. So your in? Unless you are in patrol or something." Gwen said to the spider. Fortunately for her it was a pretty quiet day today so Miles was pretty much free. If there was any other battles then the other heroes could handle it.
"Alright I got the video ready." Cecil said as he sat with the others and pressed play.
Wiz: Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat. Kings of the fighting genre. And every good fighter needs awesome villains.
"Would like less villains in my opinion." Miles said sarcastically but Gwen shushed him.
Boomstick: Like Akuma, the ultimate badass of martial arts.
Wiz: And Shang Tsung, the sorcerer's vanguard of doom.
Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyse their weapons, armour, and skills to find who would win... a Death Battle.
First up is Akuma a tough looking muscular man, who is wearing a sleeveless black gi, with a single piece of regular rope that he uses as a belt, as well he wears Easter style sandals. He has spiky hair that is dark red almost looking like blood with a small piece that is tied in a topknot, his eyes are also a bright glowing red giving him the appearance of an evil demon. Lastly he sports a necklace made of large beads.
Cecil and Miles was intimidated because of Akuma's dark aura while Gwen was getting nostalgic as she liked playing fighting games when she was younger. Especially Street F***hter and Super S***h Bros.
Akuma
(*Cues: Street Fighter IV - Old Temple*)
Wiz: Akuma, master of The Fist. Known as Gouki in Japan, he is a living weapon, ten times stronger than nearly every other Street Fighter.
Boomstick: Plus, he looks friggin' awesome, I totally want me some red, glowing eyes.
"Red eyes are pretty much a key point for any villain." Gwen commented as Miles can't help but to agree. Like why does most Villains have red or white glowy eyes.
GOU HADOUKEN
- Total Control
- Can Fire Multiple at Once
- Shinku Hadouken
- Can be charged
- Usable in Mid-air [Zanku Hadouken]
Wiz: Akuma has dozens of powerful special attacks including the Gou Hadoken. A powerful blast with precision control. He can even use the almighty Shinku-Hadoken, which is, basically, a giant fireball of death.
Boomstick: Man, if I ever fire a Hadoken in real life, I'm a die happy.
"That is everyone's dream to give out a big ball of death." Gwen said as the two boys blushed as they remember trying to do an energy ball when they were kids.
(Don't lie, you probably did it too readers.) Gwen thought while pointing at you in her head.
SPECIAL MOVES AND ATTACKS
- Gou Shoryuken "Dragon Fist"
- "Air Slashing" Hurricane Kick
- Teleport
- Hyakki Shuu "Demon Flip"
Wiz: Akuma also uses the Shoryuken uppercut, a teleport ability, a swift multi-striking hurricane kick, and the Hyakkishu, A.K.A the Demon Flip.
Miles has to remember these skills as he wants to know if he could add these in his fighting style.
SUPER ARTS
- Shinku-Hadouken
- Kongo Kokuretsu Zan
- Shun Goku Satsu "The Raging Demon"
- Literally Translates to "Instant Hell Murder"
(*Cues: Hideyuki Fukasawa - Volcanic Rim Orchestral*)
Boomstick: Also, Akuma's got tons of different Super Arts, but two really stand out. First there's the "Kongo...Kokuretsu Za... how do you say that?
Wiz: No idea.
"Its actually pronounced Kongo Kokuretsu Zan." Gwen said flawlessly as Cecil and Miles looks at her in shock.
"Wait you can speak Japanese!?" They both said as the pink hero smirks smugly.
"Eh I watch quite a bit of anime. I'm not just a comics girl you know." She told them.
Boomstick: Well, I'm pretty sure that's Japanese for "Fuck You Up!" Cause basically, Akuma punches the ground and things explode.
A small clip shows Akuma punching the ground, sending his opponent into the air in a fiery exposition.
Announcer: K.O.
Boomstick: He shattered a whole friggin' island just by punching it Holy shit!
Gwen always loved powerful attacks with so much destruction as Miles was really surprised. But he could now understand why this Akuma character is one of the strongest in his game.
Wiz: But that's not the deadliest move up his non-existent sleeve.
Akuma uses his deadly move against Dan Hibiki. The screen turns black as Akuma slides at his opponent, then comes a rapid of punches what glow out a purple flame. Once it's over a large percent of Akuma's opponent drops down fast, Dan just lays down unconscious or dead. All while Akuma stands over him his back turned with his symbol on his back glowing a bright red.
Even Gwen was intimidated by this as she did not want to be the one to get hit by such an attack. She remembers the time the female Thor was about to hit her with Mjonir. She nearly passed out after that.
Wiz: The Shun Goku Satsu, also known as the Raging Demon, literally means "Instant Hell Murder."
Boomstick: Man, I'm going to totally name my first kid that. The Raging Demon at full power is fatal, this guy's a frickin onslaught of pain!
Miles sighs in disappointment as he just realises what Boomstick is like those crazies with a gun while Gwen and Cecil chuckles.
Wiz: That's right. Boomstick, Akuma lives for one thing, and one thing only: fighting. He travels the world day and night searching for worthy opponents. He's an unstoppable human Holocaust, losing only once to his brother Gouken, but after a brutal rematch...
Boomstick: Oh hey, look he can finger-paint!
All of them was disgusted with Boomstick making a joke out of that. Miles and Cecil are the only child in the family but they still wouldn't let that happen to any family that does. Gwen meanwhile took it quite personally. Sure she and her brother don't see eye to eye but Gwen wouldn't trade him for anything.
So hearing Boomstick saying that makes her disappointed in her favourite co-host.
Wiz: It was rumoured that Akuma sacrificed his soul to a demon in exchange for the strength to defeat Gouken, but this has been declared non-canon.
Boomstick: Akuma's got one major problem, though. His stamina is absolutely pathetic. He can dish out the pain, but he sure can't take it.
Wiz: It's crucial for Akuma to have total control over the fight. He takes an extremely offensive approach. Always moving, always attacking.
"That might be a huge weakness. Unless he makes the battle his way all the way through then he is going to be in a huge disadvantage." Cecil analysed with Miles nodding in agreement and Gwen tried keeping a her smile down. Again she already seen the first two seasons in the real world but she wouldn't spoil it to her reactors.
Boomstick: Yeah, screw defence, Give me more ways to hurt people!
As the last clip of Akuma plays, his voice still sent chills through their bodies.
Akuma: I am Akuma, and I will teach you the meaning of pain!
The pink heroine thinks Akuma is awesome although she never liked that situation with his brother. Miles and Cecil are the same though they also thinks that Akuma's low stamina will play a part in this battle.
The next fighter appears, he looks like a martial arts master who is wearing a purple eastern robe. He looks extremely old almost like a walking, talking ghost or skeleton with a long white ghostly hair as well as a long thin moustache and beard. But they also see him younger and perfectly fit.
Miles and Cecil was confused but didn't say anything.
Shang Tsung
(*Cues: The Temple (Classic) - Mortal Kombat Trilogy*)
Wiz: Shang Tsung is the cunning sorcerer from out world, and scheming pawn of Shao Kahn. He's extremely adapt in magic and a well-rounded fighter.
FLAMING SKULLS
- Can Attack in Rounds of One, Two, or Three
- Fire Damage
- Swift and Deadly
- Unlimited Supply of Human Scalps (All of them felt a shiver down their spines.)
Boomstick: This guy can shoot flaming skulls, which is totally awesome, but, where the heck does he keep them? I mean seriously, how many skulls can a person carry around with them?
Miles, Cecil and even Gwen was creeped out as this guy has too many skulls then he should have. Miles was also intimidated as he wondered how many he killed to get that many.
HOT ESCAPE
- Teleport Ability
- Extremely Fast
- Wide Range
- Burns Victims when Appearing Close Enough
- Sucker Punch!
Wiz: Tsung can teleport around the battlefield with the special move called "Hot Escape"
Boomstick: Wah! Sucker punch, bitch!
All of them chuckled at Boomstick's joke
MORPHING
- Can Change into anyone he knows
- Copies Abilities and Stats of Subject
- Enables Hundreds of New Strategies
Wiz: He can morph into whomever he wants, giving him tons of different skill sets, its like fighting a hundred different foes combined into one.
Boomstick: Man, I wish I could morph into anybody I wanted. I can have some fun with that!
Gwen was weirded out but didn't say anything. While Miles and Cecil thought that ability to transform both body and abilities could be pretty powerful.
STRAIGHT SWORD
- About Three Feet Long
- Secretly Hidden
- Of Unknown Make
- Prefers Fists and Magic over Swordplay
Boomstick: He also has a razor sharp Straight Sword, though he usually keeps it hidden for a surprise attack.
Wiz: Shang Tsung possesses one other strange, but useful ability. Long ago, when he was caught cheating in the Mortal Kombat tournament, he was cursed, by the elder gods, to rapidly age until an untimely death.
Wiz: The only way to prevent this fate is to absorb the souls of his victims.
Miles and Cecil widens there eyes while Gwen growls as she remembers that bit about Shang. Miles hopes that there isn't a villain that has powers like this one.
SOUL STEAL
- Sustains Youth
- Restores Energy and Health
- Gains Opponent's Memories and Skills
- Uses Skills for Morph
Boomstick: He can literally eat your soul. Your soul! Not only can this heal him, but he gets the memories of the souls he devoured.
(*Cues: The Soul Chamber (Classic) - Mortal Kombat Trilogy*)
Wiz: This helps him copy the move sets of other fighters when he morphs.
Boomstick: So really, his curse became his deadliest weapon. Good punishment there, gods.
Gwen huffs in amusement as Miles sighs. They both saw what happens whenever deities are involved. In both shows and in real life.
Wiz: Shang Tsung has lived and fought for over a thousand years. His sorcery, powers, and brutal Fatalities are rivalled by few, and he's claimed the title of grand champion of Mortal Kombat several times, almost bringing about the winning streak necessary to allow Shao Kahn to invade Earthrealm, key word being "almost".
Boomstick: Yeah, unfortunately for Shang Tsung, he pretty much sucks at actually accomplishing his goals. He's super powerful, but like most villains, he can never get around some goody-two-shoes getting in the way of global take-over.
Gwen puffs up her chest as they all smile. At least there is one villain that wouldn't get what they want.
Wiz: His only notable victories have included treachery and deceit. But, keep in mind, Tsung's not fighting any ordinary meat-heads. He's fighting demons, sorcerers, and gods, and even in defeat, he somehow keeps coming back more lethal than ever.
As the last clip of Shang plays out as they felt like he was mocking them as he points out at them and saying.
Shang Tsung: You... will... DIE!
Wiz: Alright the combatants are set, let's end this debate.
Boomstick: It's time for a DEATH BATTLE
Between the two villains Akuma seems to be better in fighting and powerful but seems to lack stamina and smarts in strategy. While Shang Tsung was incredibly smart, mischievous and also have the power to back up his words.
Gwen picks Akuma for obvious reasons along with Miles. Though Cecil is picking Shang Tsung because his opponent lack of stamina will play a part here in this battle.
AKUMA: 2
SHANG TSUNG: 1
(*Cues: The Tower (Classic) - Mortal Kombat Trilogy*)
Akuma walks on the fighting stage, but then Shang Tsung suddenly appears behind him from his Hot Escape technique. Akuma jumps away to the other side of the battlefield, and prepares to fight his newest opponent.
FIGHT!
(*Cues: TGS '08 PV BGM - Street Fighter IV*)
Tsung throws the first move in and shoots a Flaming Skull at Akuma, but he manages to dodge it by jumping over. He the shoots out two Gohadokens in the air, only to have Tsung blocks both shots. Akuma lands nearby Tsung and attacks his feet, and knocks him to him lose more of his balance. Akuma then hitting by using his hurricane kick. Then he punches him in to the air with a Shoryuken uppercut.
While in the Air, Akuma lands more hits on Tsung, he then finishes his combo hits with a Shinku-Hadouken. Tsung crashes to the ground and Akuma goes up to finish him off, but then Tsung transform into someone else, a known fighter called Scorpion.
Gwen and the others could see that Akuma is getting an upper hand but they know that he can't keep it up forever.
(*Cues: Unknown Theme*)
Akuma stops right before finishing him off and decides to see if this form is powerful enough to fight against, Tsung gets up to say.
(Shang Tsung) Scorpion: COME HERE!
Shang Tsung throws the Kunai spear at Akuma and drags Akuma over towards him, as he closes him Tsung delivers an uppercut to Akuma, cueing the "Toasty Guy", Dan Forden, to appear in the right corner of the screen.
Dan Forden: TOASTY!
Gwen chuckles at the reference as the other two was confused about who that was. Gwen has got to show them this guy after this. Let's just hope Dan exist in the Marvel universe.
Tsung turns back to his normal self and uses his flaming skulls to keep Akuma in the air as they appear from the ground
Akuma falls behind Tsung and throws him to right of the stage. He then uses his teleportation to get behind Tsung and kicks him, but he manages to block the kick. Akuma fires off a Hadouken, but Tsung uses his Hot Escape to get out of the way. Tsung reappears behind Akuma and slashes him with his sword. He then grabs a hold on Akuma and tries to steal his soul, Tsungs gains some health by draining Akuma's.
Cecil sees this and it looks like his theory is coming true.
Akuma manages to breaks out by using his Hurricane Kick. Tsung tries to do it again, but Akuma catches Tsung off guard by using his Kongo Kokuretsu Zan, which knocks him in the air.
Akuma teleports over to Tsung as he lands and starts delivering some hits in as Akuma then grabs him and throws him to the other side of the stage. But as Tsung lands on his feet he then transforms into Akuma.
(*Cues: Hideyuki Fukasawa - Volcanic Rim Orchestral Again*)
The two stand down and prepare for a battle.
Gwen smiles in anticipation as for some reason this is actually more exciting then the first time. Is it because this is a reaction fic? Eh who knows.
(*Cues: Theme of Gouken vs Ryu - Street Fighter IV*)
The two Akuma's then jump in the air and both deliver similar attack, as well blocking each others' moves. One of the Akuma knocks the other into the ground by elbowing him. As his land on the ground he tries to finish him off by using the Kongo Kokoretsu Zan. However, the other Akuma grabs him and finishes him off with a Shun Goku Satsu. As the screen returns to normal one of the Akuma's stands with his back to the screen with the iconic heaven kanji confirming the kill.
The suspense is tightening the three up to know who won until. it is then shown that the Akuma lying dead on the ground is in fact Shang Tsung, he turns back into his original form, releasing his souls all of the trapped soul he had collected.
K.O.!
(*Cues: Street Fighter IV - Volcanic Rim Opening Version*)
Boomstick: Oh man, that was way too close!
"No kidding." Miles said as he actually liked the fight.
Wiz: No kidding, Boomstick! Akuma's raw power and speed pressed a distinct advantage early on. But Tsung's own cleverness and wide array of skills quickly even the odds.
Boomstick: It looked like Akuma had the whole thing wrapped up, but Tsung's morphing trick saved his ass.
Wiz: Akuma's pride for battle almost cost him his life, as he stopped to see if his new face was worth a challenge.
"Understandable, every martial artist is like that." Gwen said in agreement.
Boomstick: After switching up strategies, Tsung managed to steal enough of Akuma's soul for some extra health and new abilities.
Wiz: But, it wasn't enough. In the end Akuma's skills as a fighter proved unmatched.
Boomstick: I mean, Tsung loses to Liu Kang all the time, and compared to Akuma, Liu Kang's the nicest guy in the world. There was no way he could take Akuma's constant punishment.
Wiz: As Tsung isn't used to winning anything on his own, he wasn't perfect on delivering the final blow, leaving him wide open for the experienced Akuma to unleash his greatest weapon.
Boomstick: The Raging Demon of Instant-Hell-Murder-Awesomeness!
Wiz: And so Shang Tsung fell once again releasing his devoured souls, again.
Boomstick: Looks like Tsung's all souled out! Ha ha, get it, Wiz?
Wiz: The winner is Akuma.
The three really liked the battle and Miles actually decided to watch more when Gwen asked him. Then the next battle is showing itself.
Boomstick: Next time on Death Battle
The small clip plays to show who the next combatant, they see it a woman who's wearing a skin tight outfit that is red, blue and has a white stars pattern, and she then placed metal bracelets on her wrists and a golden tiara on her head. She had long, smooth looking black hair that passes her shoulders, and has a stern stone face and she stairs at the girls with her beautiful blue eyes.
At the near ending the team hear a female voice speak out.
Unknown Voice: Goodnight sugar.
"Is that... Rogue? From the X-men?" Miles widen his eyes as he recognises that voice along with Cecil. Gwen smiles as even though this was a biased fight this would still be a good one to see their reaction.
Gwen looks over to you as she whispers. "See you in chapter 3." She says with a kiss.
