Armor note:
the Iron Princess Mk VI design is based on the Iron Man 2 War Machine Mk I with the exeption of the triangular chest piece which is based on the real Mk VI.
The 'Phantom Nightingale' design is purely based on the Mk 40 - Shotgun from Iron Man 3.
The Sun was already setting on the horizon, when Bonnibel began soaring to the sky, hunting the one they called the Phantom Nightingale. For the last two hours she searched high and low throughout Ooo, looking for the mysterious figure. Alas she found none, no clues, no tracks, only scared people who ran once they saw her. Every minute pass she was getting frustrated more and more. She thought she had her signal back at the lab, but she found out that it was decoy, a diversion. Beemo is trying his/her best to track the mysterious energy signal that was being emitted, the computer is also having a hard time putting a lock due to constant movement. Flying above the Ooo's vast mountain range, Beemo sighed:
"Princess, this is just going nowhere, I suggest giving up the search and go home for a while. I've lost Finn as well, and we are miles away from Candy Kingdom." Beemo said.
Bonnibel land in the nearest plateau, the weight of the suit make her boots sink a little, she growled frustrated. "No Beemo, keep looking, I'm not giving up this search, not now, not never." She said before taking off again, she didn't even think about Finn at a moment. She knew the human is grown up, he can handle himself.
"Princess, the energy signals must be decoys and really the Nightingale."
"If this is a decoy, we will find something that will emit the signals. But we found none correct? So the signal you're tracking is mobile, appearing and disappearing." Bonnibel replied, if she can put her hand on hips, she will.
Beemo remained silent for the rest of the flight, until they reached the vast grasslands. It was already nightfall. Here, Bonnibel felt a weird feeling, the hairs on her back, even underneath the armor, stood up. She felt like someone is watching her. She instructed Beemo:
"Beemo, maintain a high profile scan of the grasslands, I go a weird feeling that some is here and watching me."
The computer didn't reply for a full minute then said, "Princess, the energy signature is being emitted just below you"
Bonnibel is about the reply when two purple blast manage to glance her right side of the armor. "Whoa, finally" she said as she evade as more purple blast manage to glance her both side. From Bonnibel's point of view, the attacker is trying to shoot her down, the Phantom Nightingale.
She made a sharp turn and headed low towards where the shot came from. When she landed, she knew the shots came from the forest ahead of her. 'Another forest, really how many forest are there in Ooo?' she thought as she entered it, guns are primed and ready.
Other forest on Ooo, this one is not really that thick, the moon light rays are shining brightly through the trees. She kept alert, guns are pointing in different directions. The main Ball Blam Burglerber three barrelled rotating auto cannon on her back is rotating 360 degrees, it is program to shoot any unidentified objects the it might 'see'. The gun is linked to her hud, giving her what gun really see. Unlike the original Ball Blam Burglerber, this versions is automatic rather than a pump action and the rounds carried is has less explosive capabilities. The balls of the gun is carried by a hose that is attached on her back, they are not large like the original, but small enough to carry a maximum of two thousand rounds.
Her hands are equipped with also with the same weaponry, two smaller Blam Burglerber are attached underneath her forearms, below her repulsor blasters on the palms of her hands. These guns unlike the main gun on her back fire rapidly carrying five thousand small metal balls on its drum magazines, carrying each with a small explosive charge. Her small four barrelled missile launchers on her both shoulders replaces her multi-barrelled guns, carrying eight small missiles each. Overall the Mk VI is complete design for war, and combat. Or rather the suit is based on the movie she watched, the hero's side kick which there is a 'war' on his name.
She maintained high alert of her surroundings, her triangular shape chest piece and her optics illuminated the path in front of her, even with the moon shining to its fullest, the rays are no longer hitting the part of the forest she's into, a perfect ambush point. She heard rustle in the bushes nearby, she aimed her guns at the direction, then another rustle on the opposite direction. Bonnibel narrowed her eyes, her HUD is on night vision, she carefully scanned everything she sees.
The rustling immediately stopped as unsure silence ensures, another moment then BLAM! A purple blast, flew pass in front of her, she dodge and aimed her arm to her right where the shot came from and return the blast with a mixture of repulsor and a burst blam burglerber. Immediately, the trees in front of her were obliterated and wood splinters flew everywhere. Bonnibel then took cover in a nearby large tree, as the purple blast kept coming to her position. The tree was not directly hit, but it is only a matter of time. After the barrage stop, she flipped herself out of her cover and return fire with her blam burglerbers obliterating the trees, hoping to hit the enemy. She took cover again once the barrage began flying. This cylcle happened five times, Bonnibel moved to another cover. She ran while firing her weapons, until she heard a loud clank. Once she reached her cover, the barrels of the blam burglerbers on her arms are smoking. She was panting and sweating in her suit, she never thought she will be engage in a fire fight before. Now she knew how it feels.
Then she heard a sickening laughter then it spoke, "you call that a weapon, you just barely scratch my suit." It said before making a sound that really raised Bonnibel's attention: a grunt of pain. Bonnibel smirks and replied:
"Scratch? Ha! Sooner I will tear you apart and that's what you're going to call a scratch!" she flipped herself around and fire another volley on her enemy's position, hearing another clank.
Once Bonnibel took cover, the sound of rustling is heard again and she fired at the direction where is came from but nothing. Then something tackled her sideways hitting the tree she used as a cover. "ugh" she recoiled from shock but manage to regain control and block an incoming punch from her enemy. She can't still see her enemy visibly but she saw that it has purple colored optics, and purple colored Arc Reactor on its chest.
She countered on the punch with her own only to be blocked also making the close fight into an arm struggle. Bonnibel used her knee successfully making hits on the Nightingale's abdomen. It stumbled backwards hissing in pain. "Clearly, I'm not ready to fight you, but I will be ready next time and you will be sorry." It said hissing in pain, clutching its abdomen. Then the Nightingale began to levitate, Bonnibel watched in amazement, her adversary floats without even using her jet boots. Making her suspicions coming true, could it be?
Without anymore ado, the Nightingale flew away form her, "Not so fast!" Bonnibel growled angrly. She too flew off, chasing her prey, the hunter now the hunted.
The night shone in full swing, the cool breeze is hitting Ooo like a wind on a sail. The vast grasslands is now illuminated by shine of the moonlight. But the skies above them turned into day as explosions and blasters added to illumination of the sky and the night.
The Nightingale, damaged, flew away from her 'prey', the Iron Princess who is chasing her, blasters firing. A barrage of blue repulsor blasts manage to hit the Nighingale slowing down a little but alas, it cannot be brought down, because it didn't even using its jet boots. The Nightingale tries its best to avoid Bonnibel's blasters and guns. Thanks to the Mk VI's new feature: enhanced stabilizer system, allows her to shoot her repulsor blast without having trouble balancing herself during flight.
Another batch of hits manages to hit the Nightingale, sending its flight pattern off for while before regaining it again. Bonnibel could have sworn pieces of metallic armor fell off, but still it wasn't enough, she aimed the main Ball Blam Burglerber chain gun on her back. her missile launchers are also aimed. The chain gun powered up, started spinning, and unleashing a barrage of small explosive rounds on the Nightingale, the round themselves never hit the Nightingale directly but, the balls exploded around it. Sending shockwaves and shrapnel around it body, filling the sky with smoke. The nightingale is being flak out of the sky.
"YOU. ARE. GOING. DOWN!" Bonnibel screamed as she fired all of her shoulder mounted missiles on her adversary.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
The nightingale avoided some of the missiles, some however sends its spiralling to the ground. It hits the ground rather hard and some of its armor shattered to pieces, but it was still intact.
The Nightingale immediately stood up and flew low; Bonnibel didn't have a chance to land. She maintained the high of the flight as the Nightingale flew low, hoping to lose her. However Bonnibel never loses her prey as she locked on and fired both of her blam burglerbers in her arms and the cannon on her back, the ground exploded as a barrage of wild explosive balls pounded the ground like rocks splashing on water. The Nightingale tries to do a serpentine manoeuvre to lose the Bonnibel's targeting sights. It did manage to maintain this strategy for a while until one ball from Bonnibel's cannon hits it main thrusters on its back.
"ARRGH!" it screamed as it skids the ground for about fifty feet.
This time, the Nighingale didn't stand up. Bonnibel land a safe distance from it, weapons poised.
"Give it up!" she said, a venom oozing out from her voice.
The Nightingale stood up and look at her, by now the shines of the moonlight illuminated its features. Like its voice, the frame was feminine in nature. For a combat armor, it has more curves than any other suit Bonnibel has, almost like an hour glass shape design with extra plating of armor in her lower part and where the breast should be. The colors of the armor was really meant for stealth. It is comprise of gray and navy blue for its main color and a rust like gold for its secondary color which is on her biceps and her thighs. The optics and Arc Reactor is brightly color purple. The shape of its mask as two fangs like ends on its lower lip, overall, it is far from the looks of the Iron Princess, way far off.
"Nice suit..." Bonnibel said, a mixture of amazement and sarcasm is present in her voice. "...pity I dented it a lot" true she is amaze at her enemy, despited being shot at and hit several times, it is still intact. Then she whispered to Beemo: "Give me analysis of the suit."
"You got it. Try to bring it down as soon as possible the people are now wondering the fuzz was all about." Bonnibel turned her attention back to Nightingale; her HUD is scanning her frame for possible hitting points.
"Thanks, too bad I would say the same to yours when I'm done with you." The Nightingale spat back.
"The feeling is the same." She motioned her fingers to come at her. Time for an up close and personal.
The Nightingale activated her jet boots for the first time, using it as a boost her attack towards Bonnibel. "Take THIS!" it screamed as it raised its fist to slam into Bonnibel's face.
But she was ready, she dodge by ducking her head down in the last minute and use the momentum against her adversary, slamming her own fist to her abdomen. The sheer impact shattered the abdomen part again. This time the main armor was destroyed.
"Feeling exposed?" she teased.
"You wish!" the Nightingale landed a roundhouse kick so fast that it hits Bonnibel in the side of her face, knocking her back, but she immediately recovered. The Mk VI is not really design for close range combat, the karate is no option, so Bonnibel has to rely on Brawl combat tactics, fist for a fist. She launched a right hook on the Nightingale which it was blocked then counted with a left, sending her again backwards, dazed a little.
The Nigthingale then proceeds to use a combination of punches on her, a barrage of fist hits her abdomen, her chest, and her face. Bonnibel was literally turned into a ringing church bell.
CLANK!
CLANK!
CLANK!
The sound of clanking of steel and metal is already, terrifying as the two exchange punch after punch. Until Bonnibel loose her ground and fell back. "Ooff!" her face is already has small bruises, her HUD is already marking part of her suit red. She look up at the triumphant Nightingale, who raised it blaster to finish her once and for all.
"So long hero..." it said coldly. Bonnibel closed her eyes and defeat. 'I'm sorry Finn'
Silence, then SLASH! A sword slash manages send the Nightingale fives steps back. A sword mark on its chest is visibly present nearly hitting the Arc Reactor. It look up to see Finn, holding his Demon Blood Sword tightly. His eyes are burning with rage and determination.
"You stay away from her!" he screamed
The nightingale just hissed and before it can response. Finn makes his move, slashing his sword on its arms, legs, the chest, then on its shoulders. The last slash manages to damage the casing of the Arc Reactor.
The voice of Finn made Bonnibel opened her eyes, "Finn?" she said as she saw her lover fighting the Nightingale. From the looks of it, Finn is already gaining the upper hand... not for long.
"Enough! Stay away you little brat!" she manage to grab Finn sword in mid slash and pulled it dragging Finn with it and give him a knuckle sandwich directly in the face. Sending the human backwards, moaning in pain. His nose is bleeding.
"RRRAAGHH!" Bonnibel roared as she tackled the Nightingale to the ground and pound it with a barrage of fist. Her adversary didn't stand a chance.
BLAM!
BLAM!
Her eyes ablaze from hate, and anger flowing through her, making her blood lust, her once happy and joyful eyes were replaced by darker ones, more terrifying than the Lich. For the first time, she felt she wanted to break a bone, make someone bleed, wanted to kill. She never pushed it away now, she craved for it, wanted it. It felt her good. She felt this dark feeling ever since she went for a fire fight earlier in the forest.
"Don't you ever...!" she hits the face for the ninth time. "...ever hurt him again!" She raised her fist for the final time aiming at the forehead. One final punch will utterly destroy the Nightingale once in for all.
"WAIT! PLEASE!" the Nightingale said as it reaches for its mask and forcefully remove it from her shattered helmet, revealing the moderately bruised face of Marceline the Vampire Queen. Bonnibel was in utter shock, she froze her fist in mid air as she stares at the vampire wide eyed, Her Hands and lips trembling and shaking.
"H-hey Bonnie, what's u-up?"
