Kid came to in what appeared to be a locker room. There were no doors out, save a huge hatch in one wall.
He looked around to see Liz and Patty waking up. "oog… my head…" said Liz. Then she woke up, and saw kid, and everything returned to her.
"kid, you're fighting to the death against something which CAN'T DIE. How are you going to win?" said Liz desparately.
Kid took her hands in his.
"it is worth gambling for my life… if it means keeping yours."
He kissed her lightly on the lips, and Liz felt like she was melting.
Of course, Patty ruined the moment by making kissy-kissy noises.
Kid and Liz snapped out of it, then they nodded to each other. The trio turned, and wordlessly went to the hatch.
A holographic circle with the word "ready?" in the center appeared in front of kid. Kid pressed the button, and the hatch opened.
The trio walked out of the hatch.
And gasped.
They were in a arena.
A huge, oval-shaped stadium stood around them, looming over them. On the floor of the arena was black asphalt, the ceiling made of the same. Voices of aliens chanted in the stands. On the left side of the arena, there were thousands of different aliens of all shapes and sizes.
On the right side, there were only Soul, Maka, Tsubaki, and Black*Star.
The four waved to the death trio, who numbly waved back.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN…" said an announcer's voice. "WEIGHING IN AT 120 POUNDS! HAILING FROM DEATH CITY! THE SON OF DEATH ITSELF… DEAAATH THE KIIIIIDDD!"
The four other members of the soul eater cast cheered, while the thousands of aliens booed.
The announcer continued. "HE WEILDS THE BEAUTIFUL TWIN DEMON GUNS, LIZ AND PATTY!
Then, the lights in the stadium dimmed, and the thousands of aliens roared.
"AND NOW, OUR KING AND OVERLORD… THE MIGHTY… ZZZZZ!
The aliens cheered and chanted some unrecognizable chant. Another hatch at the other end of the stadium began to open.
Out stepped Z, only in fancy armor.
(AUTHOR'S NOTE: for those who want a detailed picture of Z's armor, go to google and search "skyrim dragonscale armor". You should find what I'm talking about pretty damn fast.)
"AND HERE HE IS, THE MAN HIMSELF! Z IS WEARING GRADE A NEAR-INDESTRUCTIBLE DRAGONSCALE ARMOR! HE CURRENTLY WIELDS… UM…"
Z grinned. "I'm not even going to bother with weapons." He said. "I'm going to beat them with my bare hands." Then he opened the palms of his hands, and purple-white lightning crackled in them. "bare hands filled with lightning spells of course. Not to mention my entire arsenal which doesn't even involve hands."
"transform." Kid said quietly. Liz and Patty obeyed, going into gun mode. Kid snatched them out of the air, holding them across his chest in a badass pose.
"two can play at the looking cool game." Said Z. then he threw his arms to his sides, and pushed his chest towards the ceiling. A huge lightning bolt slammed into his armored chest out of nowhere. When it stopped, Z was steaming, and his face was grim and set. "my ultimate power is now unleashed. Your fate is sealed, Kid."
"funny." Said Kid, pointing Liz and Patty at Z.
"I was about to say the same thing."
"you know what, kid?" said Z, smiling casually.
"I'm gonna give you the first shot."
With that, he opened his chestplate and removed his helmet, exposing his most vital parts to Kid, who gawked in astonishment.
"shall you go for my heart? My brain? My eyes? You could take me out in one blow if you wish."
Kid shook his head. "you asked for it!" he said. "LIZ! PATTY! I'm not taking any chances with this guy! He's shown how powerful he is!
"DEATH CANNON!"
Liz and Patty transformed into mega-mode, as black energy spikes grew out of Kid's arms.
Z yawned into his hand. "predictable." He said.
Kid saw red. He didn't even hear Liz and Patty rattling off statistics and measurements. He put all his might together, and fired off a huge blast, which struck Z right in his neck.
KA-BOOOOOOM!
Skull-shaped smoke clouds rose from the site of impact. When they cleared, Z's armored legs stood, nothing else left. The legs knelt to the ground, then fell completely.
"that was easy." Said Kid, genuinely surprised. He honestly thought it would have been tougher then THAT.
It was.
Z's torso glowed blue, and slowly, out of it, bathed in blue light, grew a new torso.
"no… no…" whispered kid as he saw Z's head and arms regenerate in a flash of blue light.
Z grinned, his upper half once more armored, his helmet back on. "fool. My ultimate power is to regenerate, no matter how severe my injuries are. As long as I have my charged core within me," he knocked his stomach, "I am indestructible.
"let us see if the same can be said for you."
Time slowed, and once again, like when Z faced the daddy, a black circle with a hollow shape appeared over his shoulder: a hollow green triangle. There was another ding, the shape disappeared, and Z rushed forwards and gave kid an uppercut to the jaw. Kid flew to the center of the arena. Z strolled towards him, taking his time.
"I recognize that symbol!" said Black*Star suddenly.
"you do?" said Maka, surprised.
"yeah! In certain battles on certain games, on ps3, a button appears on screen, which, if pressed in time, makes the character do a epic stunt! Veteran gamers call it 'autopwn'."
Maka looked towards the stadium once again. Z was almost to the lying kid. Kid wasn't moving. "if we can somehow figure out a way to disrupt those symbols, Kid Liz and Patty may stand a chance!"
Back in the arena, Z had reached Kid. Kid had overheard Black*Star's rant. He looked up, and saw another solid black circle. It had a blue X within it.
Kid quickly kicked Z's feet out from under him. "wha?" said Z. the symbol made a buzzer sound instead of a ding, and Z fell to the ground. Z turned his hand into a huge sledgehammer, and prepared to crush kid. Another solid black circle with a hollow pink square appeared-
BLAM! BLAM!
"huh?" Said Z. he looked and saw the fragments of the symbol on the floor. Kid lay nearby, his guns smoking.
"clever boy! You disabled my autopwn! Looks like I'm going to have to do this the manual way." Said Z, doing a backflip and landing a distance away from the now standing kid.
Z screamed forwards, and punched kid rapidly in the face. Kid could do nothing but just stand there and take it, because Z was so fast. Liz screamed at the sight of it.
Then Z grabbed Kid, and leapt high in the air, and threw kid down, fast as a comet, to the ground below them. WHAMMO! Kid laid a smoking crater in the ground, groaning.
Z waved his hands, and the floor around Kid's crater turned into lava, so Kid couldn't escape. Then Z turned in midair, and flew superman-style towards kid.
KA-SLA-BAMMO!
Z's huge fists crashed into kid; one in his face, one in his abdomen. Kid cried out from the pain.
Z stood on Kid's hand, forcing him to drop Liz. Kid howled. Z transformed his head into a huge katana blade. "too easy." He said as he prepared to make the final, decapitating blow.
"WAIT!"
Z froze, then he turned, foot still on Kid's hand, to face Liz, who was looking to him, tears in her eyes.
"i… I'll marry you… just please… don't hurt kid any more." She sobbed.
Z looked stunned. "i… I didn't expect… meh, ok. I'll send kid home, I guess." He began to walk over to Liz at the edge of the crater, Kid still moaning in pain.
Then, as Z reached her, Liz grabbed his head, and kissed him, ferociously. Z's good eye widened, shocked. Then it closed from bliss, at this rare occurance. He put his arms to his sides, and savored the moment.
And heard a "click."
KA-WRENCH!
Z gasped. It felt like a softball had hit him in the stomach. He looked down at the gaping hole in his abdomen; almost everything other then his spine had ripped away. Then he looked at Liz, who had a smug expression on her face. One of her hands was on her waist.
In the other, she held Z's glowing core.
"NO!" Z screamed, lunging for her, one hand outstretched, the other clutching his huge bloody wound.
But Liz stuck her tongue out at him, and dropped his core into the lethal lava, where it hissed and melted.
"NOOOO!" said Z, almost diving into the lava after his core. Then he whipped around, one hand still on his wound, to witness Kid leaning on Liz' shoulder, Patty standing next to them.
"you think this changes anything? I shall still beat you!" screamed Z, his nonchalant attitude replaced with raw fury. Then he took a deep breath, and screamed in a loud voice, "ZUUN… PAAK!" the world shook, and there was a thunderclap.
"THAT'S THE SUMMONER FOR A LEVEL 2 LIGHTNING STORM! Z WILL DRAIN POWER FROM IT!"
"No shit Sherlock." Z said to the Announcer as rain began to fall. Then, as the shower turned into a downpour, the rain sizzling on the lava, Z raised his hands and screamed. A huge barrage of thunderbolts thundered from the sky, re-energizing him, creating a mini-crater around him. The death trio gawked as the hole in his abdomen disappeared, and as the lightning stopped, Z looked at them furiously, murder in his eyes.
"I can only do that once a battle, and I'll only be alive for about 5 more minutes… but still… that's more then you have." He said in a weak, hoarse, brittle voice. His face was pale as snow, and his brown eye had turned red.
Then he raised his hands to his sides, and two humongous black ebony battleaxes appeared in them, one in each hand. He grasped them, then with a roar, he slammed the blades into the ground.
The floor quaked, and opened in a huge gash, and Kid, Liz, Patty and Z were sent spiraling through the floor, into open space.
