Chapter 4: One Twin's Defeat, Another Twin's Demise
Night had fallen in the bustling streets of Hong Kong, and the city was aglow with neon lights, despite the drizzling rain that began to fall. I stood and waited with Effie, stretching my arms and charging my electricity for my fight with Yun. He suddenly appeared from the darkness, with his brother close behind him.
"What the- I thought I knocked him out cold?" I was shocked to see that he had recovered so quickly.
"I've regained my strength, but my wounds are still healing." Yang said with a wise tone, "I must say Necro, you've got a strong will and incredible strength for someone who's well… a little out of the ordinary."
"Thanks for noticing. It comes from my longing to regain my freedom again, though I am impressed with your insanity Yang." I said, with a confident smile on my face, as I was embracing Effie for good luck.
"Uh…Thanks." Yang said nervously, as Yun became enraged, and suddenly said, "ENOUGH! It's time you get you deserved for beating my brother!"
Effie scurried to the sidelines with Yang, as I said, "I'm going to enjoy electromagnetically charging you in this weather."
"Round One: Fight!"
With lightning fast speeds, Yun and I went at each other with fists and hand chops.
"Blast!" I finally unleashed an electric current that knocked him back hard. "Aah! Hey, what are you, an electric freak generator! You're just so damn weird…"
"Don't give me that shit, boy!" I said, attempting to sound like an adult, "You can mock me all you want, but that won't the change the fact that you're weak against me."
"Oh yeah tough guy? Tetsuzanko!" he charged at me with great force, causing me to stumble backward.
"How do ya like that, huh?" Yun said to me in his signature cocky tone.
"Impressive… but how can it stand against this… Rising Cobra!" I slammed him down with a hard kick to the head, but for some reason he got back up again.
"Ha! Not good enough!" he said, but he unknowingly became an easy target.
"Tornado Hook!" I spun around and hit him five times in one consecutive rush, causing Yun to become stunned and unable to move.
"Time for you to see what good enough really is. Magno Storm!" I sent a high voltage of electrical energy through Yun's body, and knocked him out cold, using up what was left of his energy.
"Ha! Maybe you should think twice before you get too cocky, eh Yun?" I said.
"Shut up! You just got lucky because I wasn't using enough speed. We'll see who the real victor is in the next round!"
"Round 2: Fight!"
It was a more intense start in the next round, as Yun and I kept exchanging heavy blows with each other. It went on for about an hour, but I finally broke the monotonous cycle.
"Snake Fang!" I grabbed a hold of Yun's ankle and threw him across the street behind me.
"Zesshou Hohou!" he suddenly made a leaping stride toward me, hitting me on contact, and then… "Sorai Rengeki!" he then hit me with a six hit combo that knocked me down, and took some of my strength away. The pain from that attack was almost as bad as the pain of my despair, but I wasn't going to let it get to me.
"Can't stand up to my Kung-Fu can you freak?" he said with such arrogance. "You Hou!" he continued his painful attacks on me for no reason at all, and it was starting to irritate me, as well as cause Effie and Yang to become concerned.
I got up again, and for some strange reason, my eyes had now turned red from the rage I had withheld within my body. The electricity was now surging through me at an alarmingly fast rate.
"You've gone too far with your kids games you little punk… now I'm going show you what my white inferno of rage can really do to you!" I charged my electricity to a critically high level and then, "MAGNO STORM!" I unleashed a powerful surge of lightning, enough to easily paralyze a single human within seconds and cause a major power outage.
I then tackled Yun, coursing my electric energy into his body. "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" he began screaming as the electricity channeled into his body, and from my point of rage, I wasn't going to stop at anytime soon.
I was at the peak of my electric surge, when Yang and Effie ran over to the horrific scene. Effie's eyes began to fill with tears, and Yang began to show signs of fear for his brother's well being.
"Illia… Illia stop! Please! You'll hurt him!" Effie cried, as she had tears streaming down her face from seeing the rage I was in.
After hearing the tearful pleas from Effie, I finally stopped myself from surging anymore electricity and my eyes had returned to their normal yellow color. I then got up off of the now almost unconscious Yun, and looked down at his body.
"Yun! Yun! Are you all right?" Yang said in fear.
"I'm… fine Yang…" I then became fearful from I had done and looked back down at him. "Hey you… you're… that… cyborg called Necro right?" he asked me.
"Yes. Yes I am." I said to him, "But actually, my real name's Illia."
"That weird power… of yours… that was really intense…" he said, "You're not so bad… for a… freak…"
"Well thank you, and you're not so bad for a kid either." I said to him with a small tone of condolence. "Anyway, I'm sorry about what I did to you at the end of our match; it's just that I've never experienced that kind of intense rage before."
"Nah… it's my fault… I pushed you too hard…"
"Well at least you're good about admitting it." I said, "Now, I must go… I've got a long path to follow for my freedom."
I then picked up Effie and began to head to the next match, when…
"Wait!" Yang came running after us, with Yun slung over his shoulder.
"What do YOU want now?" I said, with slight annoyance.
"You're trying to attain your freedom from those Illuminati crooks, aren't you?" he asked.
"Yes I am. Why? It's none of your damn concern." I said.
"I know it's not… but…" Yun then slid down from his brother's grasp. "We want to help. Your moves may be damn weird, but your motive and strong will is just as awesome as our Kung Fu!"
"Well… okay I guess." I said, "But remember my code: No mercy to weekend warriors and pansy freaks. Got it?"
"We got it!" the twins said. "But first, let's stop at the restaurant for some food."
"Yun!" Yang, Effie, and I said in unison.
"What? I'm starving, and it's wet outside!" Yun said, rubbing his stomach.
So then we all went inside Hong Kong Restaurant to have a meal, before Yun could start complaining about being hungry again.
From that moment on, I learned that it was okay to have friends and to unleash my rage as long as I didn't lose any control of it. But at least I had the reassuring feeling that attaining freedom was going to be a little easier on a tough road that lies ahead of me. With the Lee Brothers on my side, I was sure to get it no matter what.
