Chapter 13
The fair
-Klaxons! Klaxons! Klaxons! Klaxons!- The loud sound of Virgil's Shock boxs ring out again and again as he duck behind a tant and pulled it out to see that one of it's three colors flashing, Green, Red, and Yellow. Green ment that one of his teammate was calling to talk with or needed him for something, Red ment that one of them was in deep trouble and needed back, now most would think that was the most importain color, but they'd be wrong! It was Yellow! Yellow ment that Backpack itself was sending the SOS, and the only reason it would do that is if someone has been wounded to a level that their life was in now danger of dieing, which is why Virgil, Richie, and Shenice hope never to see it flashing... like it was doing now.
"Sorry Yuri, but my home boy needs me!" Virgil said to himself as he dash off back to his home, it had been a really bad idea to leave his Static outfit back at the crib and hope he could get there as quick as possible to help Gear before things got dash off down the sheet at top speed he was was planing to hit an ally way so that no one would see him take to the sky.
Skreeeeeeeeeee! Skrrrrkk! Skreeeeeee! Skkkr skkreee!
Arrgh!" Virgil drop back to a roof as he lost his concentration and clapped his hands over his ears. "Turn it off!" He yelled as the sounds continued.
Ssssskkkkraaattttic! Vvvviiiiggggiiiillll….Brrrrrzzzztmrrrraaan!
"Make it…stop…" Static groaned as he fell to his knees on the roof. Virgil. An electronic-like voice, finally legible said, Static able to hear it clearly…
"Do not... trust... the Curator. You will come... to... reget it." before Virgil knew it he was collapsing to the ground panting roughly as something on four legs walk up to him growling faintly before he pass out.
Else where
"Damn it!" She Bang curse as she jump from one roof to the next at top speed, she had just gotten the S.O.S from Backpack and pray Gear was okay as if anything would happen to him, she'd lose it. (Please be okay! Please be okay! Please be okay!) She Bang thought over and over again in her head almost missing the shadow coming at her left and just managing to dodge a blade slashing at her in time.
"Fuck! I don't have time for this!" She Bang exclaimed seeing a red hair lady in a tight white t-shirt and black short booty shorts, (What the hell is she doing walking around in just that!?) She bang thought shock that anyone could walk around in so little clothing... be side Witchblade that is. The women smirk shouldering a sword with a gray handle that had a devil face at the hilt and if She Bang was truthful to herselve it gave her the creeps just looking at it so much that her skin crawl.
"Who are you?" She Bang yell readying herself as the red head just place her hand on her hip.
"Daria, my name is Daria, and I'm sorry to say but it seem Ashtons want their favorite toy back." Daria said startleding She Bang as a red pentagram begain to glow on her hand not unlike those of Son of the fallen (What the?).
"Blow back ring!"
Back with Gear
Chief Barnsdale watch blood and green plastic fly everywhere as Gear was sent screeching back from the blow but still manage stay on his feet with his head down as blood dip from it.
"Man... look like... acting cool is... out... of the... window... huh?" Gear said raising his head to and showing to the Chiefs horror that Gear's right eye was nothing but a bloody mess now.
"Hey I said you were going to suffer quite a bit before you die." Kaito told the boy while on the inside he was surprise that Gear had step back just enough to keep the bullet from going into his head and only lost an eye.
"Dude... this is... so not cool..." Jumping to his feet and forgetting about the fact his nose was broken, Barnsdale started firing round after round at him while Kaito dodge all with out any trouble.
"Chief!" Gear yell about to run over and help but to his surprise Backpack shot four of it arms out from the top with medical supplies in hand and went to work patching his eye up. This surprise him main because he never program Backpack to do this, yes he put a med-kit inside but he never install a program on how to use it. A gun click brought his attention back to the matter at hand as his remaining eye widen at seeing Chief Barnsdale with a gun press to his forehead.
"Your in the way. Just die." Kaito said rather coolly about to pull the trigger when to his and likely everybody else's surprise he was pull off his into the air and thrown outside the building!
"What the!?" Gear gasp running over to the Chief to see if he was okay, getting a nodded the two ran outside and saw that Kaito had been thrown into a car as he made his way looking piss off.
"Alright kid, who did that!?" Kaito said want to pump the person full of lead.
"That would be me!" a voice from above yell as the three look up to see someone hovering in the sky and Gear knew he'd have to give Shenice an apology later as he smile at who it was. Psionic.
"I knew I smelled trouble, So I thought I'd come here and take out the trash!" Psionic growl trying to sound tough while on the inside, (Oh crap I just came outside to get some fresh air and ended up running into this lunatic!) Psionic thought trying to keep the fear out of her eyes but it wasn't ease, Psionic had been out flying around trying to clear her head when she flew by this place and saw all the dead body! It take everything she had to not start screaming or just plain throwing up at the site when she heard gun shots going off on the inside and heard someone call out Gear's name, after taking a few seconds to get her act together Psionic lowering herself a little to see a man pointing a gun at someone and acting quickly pulled him out of place.
"Psionic, becareful! This guy is much faster now any normal human should be!" Gear yell as Backpack finish patching up his eye, Psionic look at him for only a moment and nodded trying not to forcus on the fact that Gear had a bloody patch over his eye and turn back to the guy in front of her as she lower herself to the ground trying to keep herself ready for anything, Kaito eyes narrow, he had been hoping this would be an ease job, take out anyone who may have been looking at the design on that computer, if he had know he be running into more then one of these hero's he would have brought Helldriver and No name with him.
"Sorry but I'm going to have to bounce... later kids!" Kaito said taking out a flash bang and throwning it into the air as it exploaded in a flash of light blinding everyone for a moment, once their sight came back they found to their dismay that Kaito as gone.
Else where
"Yeah I got her." Daria said into her cell phone as she walk up to a run down looking warehouse while carrying She Bang who was barely wake, She Bang had endured a series of cuts, brute injuries, a few slashes and a busted lip, and her Red outfit was torn in some places and stained in her own blood. Daria was in much better shape so to speak and only had a bruise rib and a cut on the face due to She Bang incredible physical strength. It was too bad Daria couldn't keep She Bang as a student, that kind of power in the hand of a witch would be very nice, (Maybe after their done cloning her I can pay to get the original.) Daria thought as she told the guys on her phone she was on her way.
Walking into the warehouse Daria eyes widen at seeing her jet in piece, (What. The. Hell?) Daria thought before something was through to her and saw to her horror it was a grenade, jumping out of the building and dock down over She Bang as it was blow to pieces! finally looking up Daria's eyes narrow.
"Okay, you got my attention... come out!" Daria said as a lady in a blue business suit walk out of the flames looking very displease, She Bang look up a bit and her eyes widen as much as they could in the stated she was in.
"Nora..." She Bang whispered causing Daria to look down at her then back up at the woman. Daria smirk return as she knew who this was and realize why she was here.
"Nora? You mean Furumizu's runaway watch dog?" Daria ask laughing a bit as she got up and left She Bang on the ground, Daria knew that the girl wouldn't be able to move for a few hours, so she needn't worry about her running away.
"And What would someone like you be doing here?" Daria ask in a mocking way as the frown on Nora's face grow deeper.
"As if you even need to ask. Now hand that girl over." Nora demand as three orange rapier like blades form on her left wrisk, Daria grin holding out her sword and pointing it at Nora.
"I think not!"
Back with Gear and Psionic
"So any luck?" Chief Barnsdale ask hopefully even though he already knew what they were going to say.
"I'm sorry sir but nona of them are a live." Paramedic repiled sadly causing the Chief to sigh knowing there was going to be a lot of heart broken families tomorrow, looking over to Gear and Psionic who was making sure his bleeding had stop, Barnsdale was happy he at least didn't have two dead kids on his hands, Gear at the moment was trying to tell Psionic he was fine.
"Your fine? I don't know if you've notice but there is a HOLE IN YOUR EYE!" Psionic nearly yell irritated at how he was trying to down play how badly he was hurt. Gear held his hands up in surrender.
"Okay yeah this hurt like a bitch! But give me a moment to worry about that later." Gear said pulling out a shock box, Virgil and Shenice didn't come, they always came when someone was in danger, even more so when it was one of their own, and for them to not be here by now ment something was keeping them from coming!
Nora vs Daria
She Bang manage to push herself up on an eldow as she watch Nora's orange rapiers clash with Daria sword once more pushing her back.
"So is that the so call Sword of Lucifer! Daria, student of Gideon." Nora ask shocking Daria that she knew so much about her before chuckling.
"Not bad, but I must say I'm surprise your going out of your way to help this girl." Daria said bring her free hand up to her hip.
"Why? From what our files on you show, you considers everyone and everything around you as tools for your advancement. Yet I fail see what you could gain from this." Nora look at her for a moment before a most cold smile came over her face that sent chills down even Daria's back.
"I see, so I did succeed in killing everyone but the Veils who knew the truth about Shenice." Nora said causing Daria eyes to widen as Nora take a quick look at Shenice who had manage to get to a knee but had a shock expression of her face at Nora's words.
"And due to the way she looks now there no way anyone would find out unless those two said something." Nora added before changing at Daria who block just in time.
"You bitch! What did you do?" Nora simple smirk as she press down on Daria Sword of Lucifer over powering the woman.
"Who know. It doesn't mutter because your going to die here anyway." Nora replied as needles appear in her hair all aim at Daria but just as she was about to fire a flash of light came over her and Shenice watch as demonic looking gargoyle smash down on top of them.
"Nora!" Shenice cell out in worry when a figure leap thrown the air over her and landed in front her glaring at the thing that just try to kill her.
"That was close, thank you, Sir Lancelot." Daria said to the brown skin gargoyle with fire dripping from his mouth before turning to Nora and Shenice with a smirk while raise a eye brow looking very un-enthusiastical about the monster appearents.
"What is that thing?" Nora ask causing Daria to gain a wicke grin that told her she wasn't going to like the answer.
"Hmm, who is this guy? Just someone who kill a Bone Queen! The Butcher Knight!" dark realizen fall over Nora's face at Daria's words.
"Butcher Knight!? You mean the monster in legend that was said to have kill the half demon conqueror, Zara, Queen of Bones." Daria seem surprise that Nora knew such things, Shenice on the other hand had know idea what the two was talking but juging from the fact that Nora was clearly distube she was in deep trouble.
"So Mr. Furumizu was able to find out that much about the Witchblade eh?" Daria ask but Nora said nothing which Daria take as fear but not seeing another look of shock coming over Shenice face, (Witchblade!? What the hell are they talking about!?) Shenice thought.
"Well it's not like it matters because I asure you he is the real deal, meaning your going to die here!" Daria said with the smirk same as before but it drop at the cruel smile Nora had on her face!
"Why that delightful to hear!" Nora answer her smile becoming darker as a ragging wind began to surround her.
"Because there are a few new tricks I wanted to try." Daria eyes slowly begone to wide as orange and green armor begain to replace Nora's clothing (Wait a minute, this isn't the same armor style that I saw on her file!) Daria thought in alarm as Nora's shadow seem to loom over her.
The Forest with Yuri
"Hmm..." the dark brown eyes of Finch look off into the sky for a moment as something caught her attention, (A cloneblade, here? Not only that but it seems Lady U has begain to make her own move on the one targeted by Curator.) Finch mind ran over what was happening before turning back to Yuri who was sitting next to her on bench, (I'll have to deal with the cloneblade later, for now talking with Yuri is more importaint...) Finch thought finally.
"So are you feeling better?" Finch ask, Yuri nodded as she look at the silver bracelet with what look like a red eye gemstone in the center, that appear once her powers had calm down.
"Yes, though I can't help but be worry about the fact that it can go out of control like that." Yuri stated in dismay, though she knew Finch had did it so as to draw Yuri to her but the fact that someone else was able to make her lose so much control like that was a scary thought.
"I'm sorry but I needed to make sure you came to me, and to show that such a thing was possible." Finch said startleding her, though Yuri was happen to finch get someback ground on the witchblade but was still a little unease around her.
"What do you mean?" Yuri ask as Finch sigh hoping she got this right.
"I'm not the only one cable of driving the witchblade out of control." Finch said causing Yuri to winche, she did not want to hear that and hope the lady before her had a way to deal with it. (Though it not like my luck like ever been that great!) as her mind went over all of this Yuri couldn't help but think back to how she went from being a little girl of her death bed to now being some superhero having to deal with all this crap... all thanks to one night on the beach.
"Yuri..." Finch call out bring her attention back to her.
"The main reason I've call'd you here is to warn you of three people I'm sure you'll meet someday." Finche said getting serious now.
"Three people I'll meet someday?" Yuri repeated, blinking her eyes.
"Yes, their names are: A hitman called Jackie Estacado, The head of NSWF Tatsuoki Furumizu, and a man name Sallah..." That last one really caught her attention, (Sallah! The guy that Son told us about?) Yuri wondering what someone who was suppose to be an Immortal Egyptian wanted with a newbe hero like her.
"Yuri I need you to listen to everything I have to say, because from here on out, things will become much more dangerous for you." Yuri nodded want to know hear everything Finch had to say... though she had a few questions of her own.
Somewhere Else
Running down a the streets we see a red haired you woman holding her arm and was cover from head to toe and blood as she, (Damn you! Damn you! Damn you!) Daria scream in her head over and over again as she ran off to someplace safe.
"This isn't over! Not by a long shot! You fucking MONSTER!"
Back a the site with Shenice, Shenice had manage to crawl over to what was left of the warehouse and lean on a remainig piece of it's wall, watching as the dust cast over Nora and Butcher Knight float in the air showing only a silhouette of her form panting a gust of wind blasted it away as Nora return to normal in her blue business suit but there were spots of blood here and there as well as three cuts on her face.
A few feet cross from her was Butcher Knight, but the state he was in now was not one a living being could live in. Both his arms were cut off his leg were inpale to the ground with metal beams and there was a base ball size hole in his chest... the gargoyle like monster was without a doubt dead.
"Damn it, I couldn't kill her!" Nora huff, (It because I felt that womans power, what could she be doing in Dakota and why would she stop me from killing Daria.) Nora thought before turnning to Shenice, the girl seem to be doing fine now but had a look of fear in her eyes. (I will deal with you later Lady U, Shenice come first. ) After doing whats she could to fix her suit slowly walk over to Shenice, upon reaching the girl she knee down so they were face to face.
"I'm... rather new at this, I so give me if I'm a little hard an... repriming you for your foolishness." Shenice glup at this.
The next Day
Virgil snapped his eyes open and sat up. A blanket was draped over his body. Virgil frowned and stared at the room he was resting on. Confused, he scanned his surroundings. (This is my bed room?) Virgil thought as he nervously stood up and wiggled his toes on the wooden floor (But wasn't I just... Richie!)
"That right! He got really hurt!" Virgil yell running over to his closet slamming the door for his Static gear, at that moment his dad.
"Virgil! Thank god you finally woke up. I was starting to worry!" his dad said, Virgil look at him for a moment before going back to putting on his Static outfit.
"What are you talking about, it's still night time! I could have been out for more then a few hours." Virgil mutter to him getting his black pants on and not seeing the startled look on Robert face.
"Son, you been sleeping since 11:30 something yesterday night! And it's already past ten P.M. now..." about put on his black muscle shirt, Virgil froze in place as dad's words hit him, (Eleven yesterday, and it past ten now? I've been out for nealy 24 hour!?) Virgil thought alarm that he had been out for that long and worse part was he still didn't know how he got back home last night!
"I'll worry about that later, for now I need to check on Richie!" Virgil replied quickly putting on the rest of his clothing reaching down he pick up the sword on top of his coat and the coat putting it on Virgil now Static was about to place it back down when his Shock box went off.
"Maybe that's Richie!" Virgil said running over to his nightstand to and pick up his box.
"Gear is that you? Are you alright!?" Virgil said quickly.
=Not Gear, It's Robin!= the boy wonder replied startled Static.
"I see, Well I'm sorry to say whatever you need It's gonna have to wait till later. I'm busy-"
=What all this I hear about you gaining new teammates.= Robin said cutting in and surprise Static some.
"Rob, this really isn't the best time to talk now." Static said heading for the window.
=Too bad! A centain blade wielding girl pop up on my radar.= Robin replied stopping Staticc in his tracks and causing Static's eyes to narrow.
"Witchblade?" Static ask in a low voice, Robin said nothing for a moment.
=Come to Gotham... NOW!=
Gotham city
Sitting on top of a high raising building Robin post on a loge with his finger interlock and seem to be deep in though over he learn form Alicia and wonder what this would do to his friendship with Static, knowing very well if he didn't take do this carefully he could in up causing a rift to form between them. An electric surge began to happen around the Shock Box, and when a generating a field of energy flash Static was there, looking very unhappy.
"You don't seem to be in a good mood." Robin stated getting up as Static turning to him.
"I'm not, so lets just get to the point, what do you want with Witchblade?" Static said surprising Robin that he'd skip the small talk so ease.
"Fine, from what my intel tells me your new friend Witchblade may be connected to a plot going on in the NSWF Company." Robin said causing Static to rise an eye brow.
"What do you mean?" Static ask.
"The CEO Furumizu has been building weapons called Cloneblades and believe it or not, Blueblade was one of them." Robin, causing Static eyes to lower.
"He builded her? What are we dealing with, another Maxwell Lord!?" Static mutter hoping that wasn't the case.
"Who knows, but I do know one thing, the Cloneblades are in fact biological copys of Wicthblade." now that really startled Static, (What the hell is he talking about!?) Static know that while Blueblade may have had powers like Witchblade she wasn't a cold blooded killer like Blueblade is.
"Robin there no way-BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!"BAM! BAM! BAM!"
"What the fuck!" Static shout as he and Robin suddenly found themselve dodging gunfire, putting up his bio field the bullets bounce of his harmlessly was dipping, flipping, and dodging every bullet that came his way! When the firing finally die down the two hero glared at the four helicopter gunships with Gatling guns. Robin's glare deepen when one of the helicopters lower to them and the side door open showing nona other then Amanda Waller.
"What the meaning of the Waller!?" Robin shout using out a bio staff while energy came over Static's fist.
"Robin! Under orders of the president of the United States, you are under arrest for killing vice-president-Joe Biden!" words could not say how shock the two were at her statement, Amanda eye then wonder over to Static...
"Static, by all rights I should arrest you too, but we still owe you and Gen 13 for bringing in Maxwell Lord. So I will give you this one chance, walk away."
To Be Continued.
Yuri has come face to face with the Angelus, Gear has been wounded, She Bang must face the truth from Nora, and Static must make a choice to either help Robin or hand him over to Amanda Waller. Yeah their screw!
