NOTE: I made a mistake in the calculations of Twilight's durability in the previous episode. I have included a note in the end section of that episode describing it in detail, along with information about how it would have affected the fight.

I hope you enjoy this episode; I worked surprisingly hard on it. This was originally supposed to be a much later episode, but I decided to write it now in celebration of the new Henry Stickmin game coming out and the soon-to-be-released Animation vs. Youtube. Thank you to those who have followed this story - I'm pretty surprised you can even stand the flaws in it. Now, please, continue reading.

Episode 3: Henry Stickmin (Henry Stickmin) vs. The Second Coming (Animator vs. Animation)

Before writing, there were drawings, and the earliest drawings portrayed man as little more than a circle and a few lines. Somehow, these stick figures stuck around in internet animation, and today we pit two of the most popular, and most powerful, against one another. Henry Stickmin, the Pure-Blooded Thief, and The Second Coming, slayer of the Animator.

It should be noted that I'm using all of Henry's items throughout his games, but I am excluding the ones he just found laying around. Clearly, he didn't carry these on him, and so they shouldn't be in the fight. Similarly, while The Second Coming will be allowed use of the Minecraft Block, he will only be allowed to use items that can be found or created in a normal Minecraft world, for fairness' sake. In addition, while Monster Spawners and Dragon Eggs are not contained in PC Minecraft's Creative Mode, they are included in the Mobile Edition's Creative Mode. Since, in Animation vs. Minecraft, the Red Stick Figure uses the block to create Monster Spawners, it's clear that this is the version they're using, even though it was taken from a PC Computer. As such, these items will be included.

I'm LittleZbot, and it's my hobby to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who might win a Death Battle.

Henry Stickmin:

In the world of stick figures, one criminal mastermind stands out above all. But, before he was the self-proclaimed Pure-Blooded Thief, he was Henry Stickmin, a man who just wanted to rob a bank. When things didn't work out, he was forced to escape the prison he'd been sent to and remained elusive, always looking for the next big thing to steal in order to make a name for himself. And get rich. Luckily, he has all the tools he needs on him at all times. During his first attempt at thievery, he only brought six tools, and vowed to never be underprepared again, so now he takes one of the largest and most absurd arsenals in the history of ever with him wherever he goes.

He carries a large amount of various pieces of weaponry, including swords, shields, lances, maces, rifles, handguns, throwing stars, tranquilizer darts, and even a wrecking ball at all times, along with lots of explosives, like Sticky Grenades, TNT, C4, Banana Bombs, and the like. But that isn't even a quarter of the things he has under his belt. He has a surprising number of high-tech gadgets, like a teleporter that sends him anywhere, from a couple feet away to another planet, a liquidfier, which turns him into liquid, a clawpack, a shrink ray, an anti-gravity cap that doesn't turn off, two kinds of bubble shields (one that moves but only lasts a few seconds and one that doesn't but remains forever), and even Wallace & Gromit's Techno Trousers. Jumble Hoppers let him jump as high as a building, the Shadozer turns him into a shadow (though he'll die if the sun or moon is blocked), and the Gravitor 2.0 can change the gravity of other objects.

I'm just getting started. Many of his weapons come straight from other video games, like Mario's Super Leaf, which allows him to fly and perform a spin attack, Sonic's shoes, which give him speed comparable to Sonic, who has moved at speeds faster than light, though he's terrible at controlling it, an Item Block from Mario Kart, Kirby's Warp Star, Ness's Yo-Yo, a Spring from the Sonic Universe, The Longshot, a Koopa Shell, and Link's Wind Waker, which he can perform spells with, including the command melody, which temporarily takes control over a feeble mind. And let's not forget both a portal gun, which, well, creates portals from one place to another, and the gravity gun, which attracts and launches non-living matter.

Not to mention he also has an abundance of items that affect him directly, like a sandwich that basically turns him into the Hulk for a few seconds, an Invisibility Pill that makes him unseeable and unable to see, Stretch Chewies that let him stretch out his limbs like rubber, a cookie that increases his size to building-level, an adrenaline shot that refills his energy and increases his speed but impairs his judgement, and a can of beans, which makes him release a fart so powerful, it outruns a closing door. I am not making this up.

And he still has more up his sleeve! The Transdimensionalizer changes the fabric of reality to adjust what dimension everything exists in, his Metal Fists can dent steel, his Plunger Boots are so sticky they're nearly impossible to get off the ground, the Jet Boots can fly for about two seconds, this weird glue lets him scale walls, he has a bottle of acid, expanding foam, a magnet so strong it attracts entire airships, a laser drill, a Magic Pencil that brings anything it draws to life (too bad he's a terrible artist), and a Joy Buzzer so powerful, it interrupted power to the entirety of the same airship.

As if that wasn't enough, he also has a ridiculous amount of none-special items that are applicable in other situations, like a penny, a shovel, a balloon, parachute, tool gun, giant vacuum cleaner, glider, umbrella, whoopee cushion, and a wire that can lift over two tons.

When he wants to get around quickly, and there aren't any trucks to steal, he uses one of his favorite vehicles, like the Rocket Scooter, which comes with an attachable tow cable and basket and can outrun patrol cars. His other option is the government-created Cannon Ball, a giant Hamsterball made of bulletproof plastic that moves at high speeds. It's equipped with a huge laser cannon, two thrusters for flight, and can even turn into a spiked ball for extra defense, though enough force will still break it.

But when things get really tough, he breaks out his ultimate weapon. Straight out of Fallout, the T-45 Power Armor is a highly maneuverable piece of technology with super strength and absurd durability, tanking both lasers and bullets without breaking a sweat.

Of course, none of this would matter if his skills weren't up to par. Thankfully, they, too, seem to go into the realm of absurd. He's fast enough to run on walls, strong enough to lift a diamond that would weigh well over 2 Tons, and shrugged off an explosion from a Creeper that sent him through a concrete wall. Oh yeah, and he's magic.

Somehow, Henry has these Psychic Abilities that allow him to do some pretty crazy things. His power jump sends him dozens of feet into the air, he can steal everything there is to steal off a guard without him noticing, can cast reflecting spells, use Zero-Point Energy, teleport short distances, though his body can barely handle it, and create and manipulate both fire and ice, though he seriously lacks control over either of them. He's a skilled swordsman and martial artist, taking out professionally trained guards in one-on-one battles, and can somehow both Earthbend and Metalbend. His Earthbending skills aren't half bad, and he once Metalbended an airship's propeller into stalling, albeit unintentionally. With his "The Knee" ability, he can hit someone with his knee and cause them to actually explode, though he can only do this when under extreme duress and can't control it well. He also has some kind of Dimensional Storage ability, which is how he can store a thousand different items on him and pull any of them out at any time. He's also a quick thinker, able to come up with the best-case scenarios at any given moment almost immediately and judge exactly what he must do in order to have a chance of surviving any situation.

With such a huge arsenal and impressive skill set, Henry has accomplished a lot over the years. He's stolen the Tunisian Diamond, become the leader of the dangerous Toppat Clan, escaped from a supposedly inescapable Russian complex (and brought hundreds of other criminals with him), and was recruited by the government to help take down other dangerous criminals. He survived falling from a building that was at least 38 stories high, dodged steady streams of gunfire with nothing but his acrobatic skills, and once dodged every bullet from an AK-47, caught one in his hand, and flicked it back hard enough to break the gun into two pieces. The average speed of an AK-42 round is over twenty-three hundred feet per second, and from some less-than-simple calculations, I've found that he must have thrown the bullet back with nearly six tons of force in order to break the gun. That's power.

Of course, all these abilities and items wouldn't amount to much if he weren't able to use them, and…he can't. For having survived some pretty crazy things, he's actually quite fragile in most situations. His head, in particular, is vulnerable, and though he can dodge bullets frequently, one shot will put him down. He's easily distracted, egotistical, obsessed with money, and incredibly clumsy. He's made a ridiculous amount of rash and thoughtless decisions, and, despite owning dozens of pieces of incredible technology, can hardly use any of them properly. He's more liable to end up stuck in a wall when using the teleporter than anything else. He can't control the Warp Star, or most of his other speedy items. Despite having several guns, he's a horrible shot. He once fired every round from a machine gun at a guard literally inches away and somehow missed every time. Honestly, he's only even made it this far due to his surprising luck. Karma is very real to him; when he makes a stupid decision, he has bad luck, and when he makes a smart one, he has surprisingly good luck. Though this has led to him getting captured at least three times by three separate organizations, it has also led to him escaping these organizations better off than he once was.

In any case, he consistently finds himself in hundreds of situations where there is only one possible chance for survival, but he always manages to find it and take it. Henry Stickmin is a criminal to be feared. Until you see him slip on a banana peel. Feel free to laugh then.

Henry bends himself backwards, dodging constant bullets, before plucking one out of the air and launching it back at the guard, breaking his gun. The guards begin to shake in fear, and when Henry makes a fake shooting motion at one, he drops his gun. Henry walks out of the prison without interference.

The Second Coming:

In the world of stick figures, one powerful martial artist stands out above all. But, before he was the slayer of the Animator, he was The Chosen One, an animation who just wanted to destroy everything. After being brought to life, The Chosen One did his best to fulfill the one goal in life he'd been given (utter destruction of the computer), was captured by Anti-Virus software, escaped, and succeeded in his goal at last. And then his Animator got a new computer and he destroyed that one, too. After that day, the Animator swore to never again create another Chosen One, leaving it and its memory trapped in the old computer forever - or so he thought. The soul and power of The Chosen One lived on, and found itself embedded in a new form, the orange stick figure known as The Second Coming.

Trained by his four best friends (who also happen to be master martial artists) he's one of the best stick-figure fighters out there, easily taking down other masters in seconds and killing several monsters in a single heartbeat. He technically only wields one weapon, but it's one of the most powerful and versatile weapons out there: The Minecraft Block. This block contains the very essence of Minecraft's creative mode, and thus can be used to spawn a nigh-infinite amount of any of the hundreds of items in the Minecraft World.

This includes full sets of Diamond and Iron Armor. These armor sets provide a magical effect that increase the wearer's durability by incredible amounts - at full strength, the Diamond Armor set nearly doubles TSC (which is how I'll be referring to The Second Coming from here on out)'s durability. But armor isn't all that's made of diamonds. The Diamond Sword is one of the sharpest blades ever forged, and can slice through metal and foes alike as if they were butter. And while the Diamond Axe and Hoe are supposed to be used for cutting down trees and farming, respectively, you can imagine what they do to their enemies. Then, there's perhaps his best diamond-forged tool, the Diamond Pickaxe, a tool specifically made for breaking through that which is unbreakable. Be it metal, mineral, stone, magical, or even alive, the Diamond Pickaxe will smash it to pieces in seconds.

Speaking of things to break, any block in the Minecraft world is TSC's to build with. Wood blocks, Cobblestone, Diamond, Gold, Hellstone, even Obsidian, one of the strongest blocks in all of Minecraft, are all accessible and easy to build giant structures with - like a giant unkillable robot, a self-propelling windmill, or just a simple cabin, all built in seconds. If you think that's the limit of what's contained in this weapon of infinite capabilities, stop being so cute. TNT blocks destroy anything within a five-to-ten meter radius and with redstone he can set up wiring systems in his structures, setting up crazy things like devices that can make real-life phone calls or chat on Skype. His Bow shoots arrows with enough power to break through diamond, and he can even adjust Dispensers to act like arrow-machine guns.

He also can spawn any potion he needs, such as the Potion of Healing, which, well, heals him. Potions of Strength, Swiftness, and Regeneration increase his Strength, Speed, and Stamina, respectively. The Potion of Invisibility turns his whole body invisible, though it doesn't affect armor, the Potion of Night Vision lets him see underwater and in the dark, and the Potion of Fire Resistance makes him immune to being burned. He has a lot of other potions, too, like Potions of Water-Breathing and such, but most others aren't very helpful in battle, so we can skip them. But, of course, we can't forget his splash potions, which are throwable potions with volatile mixtures inside that affect all beings in the area. His two best splash potions are his Potion of Poison, which poisons all those exposed for several minutes, and the Potion of Harming, which is kinda like another, more powerful TNT block that only affects living matter.

He has an assortment of other items of varying usefulness, as well, like Milk Buckets, which heal him of status effects. The Fishing Rod has an unbreakable line and catches fish quite well, but he usually uses it as a powerful grappling hook. He can form high-speed Minecarts and tracks for the minecart to run on, Torches to light up dark areas, Pistons for working with machines or providing a high-powered punch, an Enchantment Table with books to make his weapons and armor even more powerful, a surprisingly durable shield to block blows, and the Enchanted Golden Apples, which heal him completely in just a few seconds and provide a myriad of powerful buffs.

But perhaps most importantly, he can create spawners of various enemies, summoning entire armies of former foes to defeat his opponents. Zombies are slow, but steady and tough. They are, by far, the most common enemies, but are far from the best. Skeleton Archers are terrible in close-quarters combat, but excel from a distance, where they launch arrow after arrow at their enemies. Creepers have no weapons or combat potential, but are far more…direct. They just walk up to the person they hate the most and explode! At point-blank, a creeper explosion will kill virtually any normal Minecraftian, regardless of armor. Blazes are made of fire and shoot fast-flying fireballs. Silverfish burrow through solid stone and do small amounts of very fast damage, and finally, Cave Spiders are man-sized spiders that launch themselves at foes and bite them, poisoning them in the process. The only problems with these spawners are that the enemy has to be within 16 meters in order for the monsters to spawn, and the spawners themselves are easily breakable and will stop creating monsters if broken.

Still, this is ignoring the block's two most powerful creations. With the Dragon Egg, it will spawn none other that the Ender Dragon, one of the most powerful beings in all of Minecraftdom, and by placing three Wither Skulls on a structure of Soul Sand, the Wither is formed, an exploding, incredibly deadly monster that is essentially Minecraft's version of Satan. Though each boss can only be summoned once, it's essentially a guaranteed win after that, so it doesn't often matter. Now, there's a ton more to the Minecraft Block, but really, we've covered pretty much everything useful in a battle, so there's no sense in going over the rest.

Of course, as powerful and versatile as this block is, it wouldn't be much if TSC's physical feats couldn't hold water - but they can. In fact, the vast majority of what TSC has done, he's done without the Minecraft Block. Because he's a remnant of The Chosen One's power, he still holds his original strength, speed, and durability. He's fast enough to run on walls, strong enough to lift and place a block that's literally a cubic meter of pure gold, and tanked being smashed into by several cars and trucks in a row. Oh, and he has powers.

In addition to his absurd physical feats, he can pick up any martial art just by studying it in action for a few seconds, which is how he became one of the greatest martial art-performing stick figures ever and a master swordsman. More interestingly, he can use tools from drawing programs and draw objects and creatures which will then actually come to life and serve him. His force of will is nigh-indomitable, pushing him to the point where he wasn't able to be deleted by Windows Task Manager and survived several blows from an obsidian giant that should have killed him with ease. His greatest asset, however, is his creativity and ability to use the environment around him to his advantage - like creating a laser gun out of random bits and pieces of loading bars scattered around or hiding in the thumbnails of apps. His powers he currently has actually come from his original form, The Chosen One, and, in fact, it's implied that, under too much pressure or anger, he can actually transform back into The Chosen One. Okay, well, it's not, like, heavily implied, more like barely implied, but I want The Chosen One in this fight and if you were taking this whole thing incredibly seriously, you're doing it wrong.

The Chosen One is an incredible power of pure destructive force. In addition to strength that shatters metal and a skill set to match the best martial artist out there, he has a host of new powers - like his Heat Vision, which can burn through nearly anything, outmatch other apps and icons with the ability, and leaves everything it touches in flames. He can create explosions spontaneously, fly, breathe fire, and has full control over the elements. He can create and manipulate enormous walls of fire, freeze other beings solid with a casual wave of the hand, even Firefox, which is a fox made up of, well, fire, create earthquakes with a stomp, and spin around, manipulating the air around him to form a vortex akin to a Black Hole. If this seems overly powerful, well, it is. We are talking about a stick figure who killed the Omniscient AOL Messenger program by picking up its own program window, which was around 100x his size, and smashing it into the icon's stomach. He's defeated nearly all the computer's icons at once, and held his own and even won against Clippy, a shapeshifting, invincible paper clip, and The Dark Lord, who was specifically created by the Animator to kill The Chosen One. However, as The Chosen One, he gains all this power but loses The Second Coming's humanity and mental prowess, meaning a clever opponent can set up a trap for him and contain and perhaps even kill him, much like the Animator initially did, and he can revert to The Second Coming's form if he takes too much of a beating. Still, that's a small price to pay for this much power.

But even without The Chosen One form or the Minecraft Block, The Second Coming has accomplished a surprising amount. He's tanked Creeper explosions, dodged high-velocity bullets, and defeated four martial arts masters in five seconds. He's killed Herobrine, fought the epitome of Youtube, and concocted a plan that defeated an enormous Obsidian Giant piloted by a stick figure with the Minecraft Block (yes, the very one with so much power that we spent five paragraphs on it) in his possession with nothing but a few sticks, fishing rods, and saplings - a.k.a. the most useless things in all of Minecraft. He's avoided lasers, matched and surpassed the strength of his friends, who held back the afore-mentioned giant with nothing but a fishing pole, and even temporarily killed the Animator. Or, well, at least his cursor, which is still more than The Chosen One could do without outside help. However, there is one accomplishment he is the most proud of - one thing his predecessor, The Chosen One, could never have done, even with outside help: He actually made friends with the Animator and ended up becoming an Animator himself, helping produce fantastic animations for the world to see and bringing other creatures to life with his power.

With all these weapons and items and with that much power, The Second Coming really seems unstoppable - but he isn't. He's been defeated before, and nearly killed on more than one occasion. He often over-relies on his friends to pull him out when things get tricky and to have his back in battle, and, as such, is consistently open to counterattacks and hits from behind. He'll jump into battle without a second thought, regardless of what he's up against, and he can easily lose himself in rage or become obsessed with a single goal, ignoring all else in order to achieve that goal. He also has great trouble when surrounded on all sides by foes, as he's unable to predict when and how the next attack will come. In addition, while the Minecraft Block is absurdly powerful, if it is destroyed or placed inside the Recycling Bin, anything and everything it created will be destroyed instantly.

In any case, he always find himself facing the most powerful and wackiest of foes, and always manages to come out on top. There are few who have gone up against The Second Coming and lived to tell the tale. Do not underestimate this three-meter tall orange child's drawing.

The Second Coming knocks on the side of an open computer window as if it's a door and waves to the three stick figures within. They cheer, and one rushes to open up the window to him. He enters as another stick figure opens a door inside the window and comes out. They all trade high-fives and hugs before entering their own corners and getting into fighting stances. All four launch themselves at The Second Coming, only to each be defeated in a couple of hits. Lying on the ground, all four raise their hands and begin clapping for their friend, who raises his arms in victory.

All right, the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all. Probably. It's time for a Death Battle!

TSC (The Second Coming) blocked another blow from one of his friends - the four were inside their website house, competing against him for the third time in as many days. As the red stick figure launched himself at him, TSC whirled around, grabbing his arms and flinging him into two of the others. All three fell down. The yellow one, the only one still standing, suddenly jumped down from above, trying to land on and pin him, but TSC stepped out of the way and kicked the yellow stick figure back into the air. He slipped into another tab accidentally, and TSC jumped into the tab to follow him. Upon landing, he saw an odd picture - inside the tab, another stick figure, this one black, was charging at two other stick figures, one black with a stubble who was evidently holding another with pink hair hostage. As TSC watched, the first Stick Figure hit both of the others with a single knee, throwing them far back and forcing them both to explode in a flash of color. Instantly, TSC jumped up and down in excitement. Maybe now he could finally fight someone with power like his! He waved off the Yellow Figure, who quickly understood and retreated back to his own flash window home. TSC ran over to the flash window containing this new person and opened up the side.

Henry blinked and raised his arm behind his head. He let out a nervous grin. He hadn't expected it to go like that. Well, at least the-

Suddenly, an orange Stick Figure with no face appeared out of absolutely nowhere, grabbed Henry, and pulled him out into what appeared to be another dimension. Henry slid out of TSC's grip and jumped up, shocked. From here, he could see the entire yard of the complex he had just been escaping from. It was contained in some kind of a window, and there was a piece missing off the side. That must have been how this person had brought him here. But that didn't really matter; he just had to get back and make sure Ellie was all right. He ran toward the open side, only to be halted in his tracks when the orange figure appeared in front of him and pulled down a black bar, sealing the hole. The figure began to make several motions with his hands - he wanted to indicate something. Henry shook his head to show he didn't understand. TSC lowered his head, jumped down and opened up another computer window, this one showcasing a painting program. Henry was surprised - could this being just shape reality to his whim or open up new worlds effortlessly? No, he decided. It must be the place he was in - something like a hallway between realities. Of course, Henry had no way of knowing he was on a computer.

TSC jumped into the paint program's main sheet, and orange words appeared above him. "LET'S FIGHT!"

Henry scratched his chin and jumped into the same sheet. He thought of the words he wanted to say, and, surprisingly, they appeared above him. "NO."

"WHY NOT?"

"YOU KIDNAPPED ME!"

"I JUST WANT TO SEE WHO'S STRONGER. IF YOU WIN, YOU CAN GO BACK."

Henry considered this. If this orange person was the only one who could return him home, he'd have to agree. Better a possibility of going back than a guaranteed no.

"OKAY."

"JUST A MOMENT." The figure said. "I'LL BRING UP EVEN GROUND." He jumped down to a grayish bar and tapped an icon of sorts, which brought up a word processor. He jumped into it and motioned for Henry to do the same. Henry jumped in, and they posed, ready to fight.

-FIGHT!-

TSC launched the first punch, but before it connected, Henry had summoned a large mace and slammed it into TSC's stomach, sending him flying back and crashing into the bottom scrolling bar. Henry switched to his lance and held it out as he dove at TSC. TSC rolled out of the way moments before the lance could hit him, and the lance snapped the scrolling bar in half. Thinking quickly, TSC immediately picked up the half on his side, snapped it into two pieces on his knee, and held them out, wielding them like dual swords. Henry pulled his lance out of the bottom of the screen and swung with it. TSC ducked under the blow and pushed it back with his scrolling-bar swords. He launched a barrage of attacks with them, which Henry kept trying to deflect with his lance. But a lance is not a good defensive weapon, and TSC quickly knocked it out of his hands. With a jump and a kick, he sent it flying into the air and back down, aiming to skewer Henry, who managed to flip out of the way.

He's trying to kill me! Henry thought. What about the idea of a friendly competition?! Henry had no idea that, to TSC, this was a friendly competition, and his competitions with his friends usually including such life-threatening instances. Well, if that's how he's playing it…

TSC kicked down, swords aiming for Henry, but Henry jumped onto the once-again stuck lance and up into the air, meeting TSC as he fell. With a powerful uppercut, Henry sent TSC flying into the back wall and caused him to drop his swords. Henry activator his Gravitor right away, grabbing TSC, sending him out, and back in. Out, and back in, and then he tossed him high into the air with it, grabbed his gravity as he was about to fall, and forced him to slam down directly where he was - right into the dozens of grenades, banana bombs, TNT, C4, and other explosives Henry had put there, waiting for him. TSC looked around once, shocked - and then it all exploded.

Then the dust cleared to reveal TSC surrounded by obsidian blocks and completely unharmed. Revealing the Minecraft Block, TSC destroyed the obsidian instantly and threw out a fast and powerful line of cobblestone blocks at Henry. They smashed into him, crushing the Gravitor and pinning him against the wall. Henry quickly dug into his storage and threw out several more bombs to give him an opening - but TSC simply scrolled through his inventory and threw up several TNT Blocks. The explosives all detonated in the air, harming neither combatant.

Then Henry suddenly punched the air in a straight, outward motion - and the cobblestone trapping him flew out and shattered into hundreds of pieces. Another movement, and the whole line had shattered. With a few more direct movements, the pieces all began flying toward TSC. TSC immediately surrounded himself in more cobblestone to protect him, but in moments, they, too, had shattered and joined the rest. The hundreds of slivers of stone tore through TSC's stick body several times, causing him to fall back in pain. Henry commanded the slivers to all rise above TSC and rain down on him at once, finishing him off. As they fell, though, TSC suddenly rose and pulled out a diamond pickaxe. With sudden dexterity and agility, he jumped through the air and swung the pickaxe, each swipe obliterating over a dozen slivers. In five seconds, he'd taken care of them all. He took out a potion of some kind and drank it, turning him invisible.

Not to be outdone, Henry quickly swallowed a pill which also turned him invisible - but rather than an awesome invisible fight, all it really led to were two invisible stick figures bumbling around, trying desperately to find where the other person was until the effect wore off. The moment it did, TSC grabbed a Diamond Sword. Seeing this, Henry took out his own steel blade. The two ran at each other and swung - and Henry found his sword sliced cleanly in half. Seeing TSC making another swing, he brought out his mace once more, ready to smash into him with it - only for it to be sliced in half, as well. Well, maybe a hammer would - nope, sliced in half, too. Then TSC finally got a hit with the Diamond Sword in, knocking back Henry and leaving him gasping. That was an incredibly powerful sword - he couldn't afford to be hit again.

TSC swung again, expecting this to be the last swing of the fight. But, before it connected, someway, somehow, Henry turned into a shadow. As a shadow, he moved behind TSC and then regained his normal form. Then TSC saw the device in his hands. Another strange item that let this person do incredible things. Where did he keep getting them? TSC was interrupted mid-thought, however, when he was struck in the back by Henry wearing what appeared to be enormous, and powerful, TSC thought to himself while rubbing his back, iron gauntlets. Then, without warning, Henry was behind him and struck again. Henry jumped into the air and landed right behind TSC once more. Before TSC had enough time to recover from the second blow, Henry was there with a fully-loaded machine gun - and shooting. All TSC could do was duck and pray.

Thirty seconds later, Henry ran out of bullets, and TSC looked up. Amazingly, he believed, he hadn't been touched by a single bullet, despite being two inches away from the gun's barrel. Just to test that he was still alive, TSC reach out and knocked over Henry, who was apparently just as shocked as he was. Henry fell to the ground, which was a good sign. TSC decided to take advantage of the opportunity. He reached up and prepared to plunge his sword into Henry - but Henry suddenly brought a giant shield out of nowhere. The sword went through the shield, but it halted the momentum of the blade, allowing Henry to pull back and snap the sword out of his grasp. Henry rolled away and stood up, taking the captured diamond sword as his own, holding it in one hand and his shield in the other. TSC simply pulled another Diamond Sword and his own Shield from the Block, and held them similarly. The two ran at each other and clashed blades.

They fought evenly for a while, but it was clear that TSC was the better swordsman. Henry needed to mix it up if he wanted to win this fight. He forced TSC's sword back with his own, pushed TSC's shield off his, and equipped his metal fists. He threw a punch and connected with TSC's shield, and then used his metalbending to create a giant spike protruding out of the fist. The spike tore through the shield and ripped it in half. TSC, not wanting to give any advantage, jumped up and grabbed Henry's neck in a scissor lock. A quick pull, and he was on the ground, Metal Fists off his hands. A few slices from the diamond sword and the fists were no more. Henry knocked TSC off of him with a kick to the head and trapped him in a heap of expanding, hardening foam - but that was hardly enough to contain him. TSC gathered his strength and tore loose from the foam and swung a decisive blow at Henry. Desperate, Henry pointed at him and entrapped TSC in an area of zero-point energy. Henry breathed a sigh of relief - before realizing that, somehow, TSC was still moving - albeit more slowly. TSC managed to break free of the Zero-Point Energy field and finished his decisive blow - but Henry wasn't there. In an act of panic, Henry had managed to teleport himself several yards behind TSC, though it left him weakened and reeling.

TSC brought out a bow and several stacks of arrows and began firing. Henry managed to recover in time and threw out his own shurikens, throwing stars, and throwing knives, each one perfectly matching and knocking down the arrows fired. TSC brought out a Dispenser and filled it with arrows, sending hundreds flying at Henry in five seconds. Henry simply put up his reflecting spell and sent out arrows back at TSC, who placed several obsidian blocks in front of him to block the arrows. TSC destroyed the blocks and summoned a Potion of Swiftness and drank it at the same moment Henry injected himself with a personalized Adrenaline shot. The two launched themselves at each other, Diamond Swords swinging, and clashed at hypersonic speeds. They jumped from place to place, block to block, wall to wall, each perfectly matching the other's newly-increased speed.

Realizing he needed more, TSC summoned and drank up a Potion of Strength. The next time they clashed blows, TSC grabbed Henry's head and slammed it in the side of the program window, then pulled it out and knee-dropped him to the ground. Henry got up woozy. TSC's strength was too much - he needed to match it. As TSC landed heavily next to him and threw a punch, Henry matched it with his own hand carrying his Joy Buzzer. TSC was wracked with electricity for a few seconds, giving Henry enough time to find and swallow a Sandwich. He suddenly grew twice as big with muscles that looked like enough to smash a building to pieces. TSC somewhat recovered and threw a punch, but Henry matched it with ease. Henry then piledrived TSC into the ground and, using his now-wearing off super speed, dragged TSC around the floor, his head being smashed through all sorts of materials. He finally lifted up TSC and raised his knee, and then slammed TSC's back down onto it - before realizing that his Hulk mode had worn off. Both of them collapsed in great pain. TSC shakily got up and ate an Enchanted Golden Apple to restore his energy, and then took the few extra seconds he had to finally equip himself in a full set of diamond armor.

Now, with TSC ready to impale him and his own blade nowhere in sight, Henry desperately reached down, hoping to grab something to help him - and unwittingly opened Microsoft Paint back up. TSC's blade was caught on some of the previously-spoken words and flew out of his hands. Realizing his advantage here, TSC jumped on top of the afore-mentioned words and grabbed the paintbrush out of the drawing options tab. He used the tool to draw a giant boulder over Henry's head, which immediately came to life and began to fall. Henry ducked out of the way just in time, and, realizing this place was basically one giant canvas, brought out his Magic Pencil. TSC drew a pair of wings behind him, allowing him to fly. Henry tried to do the same - but they ended up looking more like frogs than wings, and suddenly there was a small army of frogs hopping around. He tried drawing a gun…and it turned into a sweater. Deciding his Magic Pencil was basically useless, and why would he draw a gun when he had a dozen of them with him at all times, he just brought out his sniper rifle and unleashed a shot at TSC - which was quickly intercepted by a line of paint. He took out his rocket launcher and launched three missiles instead, but then TSC just made three lines of paint, one for each missile to smash into. TSC surrounded himself in an evidently impossible-to-break-into wall of paint and began work on the biggest gun ever seen. It only took him about fifteen seconds, but in that time, Henry had already tried to break through with several of his weapons and items and failed. As soon as TSC was done with it, he used the eraser to wipe away the paint and pointed the gun at Henry - only to be struck in the stomach by a Koopa Shell and knocked down, wings lost. Henry grabbed his magic pencil and used it to make platforms (at least that was something he could do), which he used to reach up to the gun. After a quick prayer he threw out his hands - and a huge bout of fire flew out of them and wiped away the paint effortlessly.

Both Henry and TSC were amazed, but decided quickly they couldn't afford to think about this spectacle. Henry equipped Sonic's Shoes and suddenly ran at TSC at speeds faster than light - only to smash right into an unbreakable wall of obsidian TSC had put in front of him moments before. Pressing his advantage, TSC reached down and minimized the Paint program, causing both of them to finally end up on the desktop, and created several monster spawners. They each began spawning monsters right away, and, when he finally turned around, Henry was faced with dozens of monsters to deal with after the whole headache he had just gone through. He grabbed ahold of and used the Item Block and received…a banana peel. Well, chainsaw it was. With a powerful vroom! his chainsaw started up and began mercilessly mowing through zombies and creepers with ease - until he was shot half a dozen times by skeleton archers and around eight cave spiders jumped onto him. Freaking out, Henry reach into his arsenal for anything that would help - and found the Warp Star. Suddenly he was out of the pile of monsters and flying around the place like a maniac, holding on for dear life as the Warp Star crashed right into TSC, throwing both of them to the ground and, unfortunately, causing TSC to drop the Dragon Egg he was holding.

Out of nowhere, a giant purple and black dragon that filled a quarter of the screen appeared. In one breath it annihilated all the monsters and spawners in the vicinity. TSC cowered. Realizing just how big of a threat this creature was, Henry pulled out his Shrink Ray, and, just as the Ender Dragon was about to fire at him, shot it. The dragon suddenly became the size of an ant and about as threatening as such. Henry killed it by merely stepping on it. Seeing this, TSC noticed that this gun Henry was holding was a little too powerful for his liking. TSC stood up and delivered a solid punch to Henry's face, knocking him back and sending the Shrink Ray flying. It was then a simple matter to catch the Shrink Ray and shoot it at Henry. But Henry quickly recovered and put up a reflecting spell, sending the ray back at the gun. The gun shrunk, fell out of TSC's hands, and broke on the Taskbar.

For the first time, Henry took actual notice of where he was. To his astonishment, he suddenly realized the he was, in fact, inside a computer. If that were true, then he could just reopen the page that had allowed him to escape here and return home that way. Well, if he took care of this guy first. Speaking of which, he watched as TSC created a massive, screen-sized stick figure out of Obsidian blocks and gulped. He eyed the block the diamond-clad figure was holding as TSC took out of it a new Diamond Sword. All the stuff he had made…all his power had come from that block. He needed to get rid of it. If he could do that, this fight would be over.

But, for now, he had to deal with this thing. He tried the Super Leaf, and flew up to the head of the giant - only to be smacked down again and lose his ability. Well, choice No. 2, then. Henry took out and ate a cookie with blue frosting, which caused him to shoot up in size until he was as big as the behemoth he was facing. He launched a punch, but it was met and countered by the giant. The giant hit him with an incredible amount of force - if he were smaller and weaker, he may be dead. He tried to twist the giant's arm back, but it didn't move. He tried earthbending and metalbending, but it didn't move. Then it did move - it landed two powerful uppercuts in his face, sending him to the floor. He got up and continued fighting for a while, but it was clear he was outclassed. Eventually, the cookie wore off and he was stuck in his small form, facing a giant too tall for words. He threw up a bubble shield to protect him and buy him some time. Try as he might, he couldn't think of something left in his arsenal that could handle a giant like this, except maybe-

He didn't have to continue his thought, because evidently TSC wanted to make sure he had victory in hand. He placed four Soul Sand on the ground in an odd shape, and placed three Black Skulls on top of it. Then, with a huge explosion, a incredibly scare, satanic life-form was created. It instantly began launching skulls at Henry - skulls that bounced right off the Bubble Shield. It was a very powerful monster- which was a good thing for Henry. He took out the Wind Waker and quickly performed the Command Melody. Now, just like that, the Wither was his to control - its single desire to kill all that lives perfectly weakened its mind enough to be susceptible to the song. Henry commanded it to attack the goliath, and it did. While the skulls didn't do much, incredibly, whenever it touched a block on the giant, the block was obliterated. TSC quickly replaced these blocks, but still…Henry got an idea. He told the Wither to simply jump into the structure and try to kill the orange stick figure. It did, and, as the obsidian crumbled, Henry used the Gravity Gun, summoning and breaking apart all remaining obsidian. As the ground beneath him fell apart, TSC let go of the Minecraft Block and tried to hold his own against the Wither. That was all Henry needed. He took out the Portal Gun, shot a portal above the recycling bin, and shot a portal underneath the Block. In a split second, the Block was gone, the obsidian fell to pieces, which then ceased to exist, TSC's armor and sword vanished, and with one mighty explosion that sent TSC to his knees, the Wither was gone as well.

Henry sighed in relief. Finally, it was over.

Then TSC began to vibrate, appearing for split seconds as no longer orange, but black. No longer short and thick, but tall and thin. And then, with a mighty glow and shout, it became reality. The Second Coming was no more - and The Chosen One had risen again.

Suddenly, Henry was being smashed into walls, icons, anything and everything on the screen. The Chosen One threw him into the back wall and shot out powerful lasers from his eyes at him while still floating. Henry put up his reflecting spell, but it was no use - it shook and cracked, and then it broke. Henry was too tired to compensate for that much energy. He dropped to the taskbar, barely avoiding the laser blasts, and summoned his Rocket Scooter- which was promptly destroyed. Clicking his tongue and dodging another blast, he now summoned the Cannon Ball, which he entered immediately. Using the rockets, he flew up with it to meet The Chosen One in the air. The Chosen One cause an enormous explosion near it, which sent the ball flying, and then smashed into it with a powerful punch that cracked the plastic. Surprised, Henry charged up the powerful laser cannon and fired. The Chosen One met this with his own laser vision. The two beams struggled for a good long while before the Cannon Ball ran out of energy. Henry immediately activated the defensive mode, wrapping the whole thing up in a metal exterior with lots of spikes. This didn't seem to bother The Chosen One, though, and he merely picked up the Cannon Ball like it was a paperweight and went to town on it, throwing it everywhere, smashing it into all kinds of things, and finally just grabbing the metal coating himself and tearing it to pieces. Henry ejected before he could be killed. There was only one way to survive now. He had to use his ultimate weapon - the T-45 Power Armor.

As the blackish-grayish armor equipped itself, The Chosen One flew at Henry and launched a powerful punch - only for it to be intercepted and replaced by a metal fist flying at his face. The hit from the armor hurt a surprising amount and threw The Chosen One all the way to the other side of the screen. He wanted to end this as soon as possible. He shot his laser vision at the Armor-Clad Henry, only for it to simple bounce off the armor. He raised his hand and grew a column of fire that filled half the screen, and sent it all hurtling toward Henry. But he appeared to be completely safe in that armor, and it didn't even have a scratch on it afterward. Then Henry attacked, and The Chosen One was surprised at how well the armor kept up. It seemed to match him blow-for-blow in places - but he still had the upper hand. He held a significantly higher amount of skill in hand-to hand combat, and he still had powers. Speaking of which, he flew backwards and thrust his hands forward, shooting out a large batch of powerful frost magic. Though he tried to escape, Henry was quickly frozen in ice, Power Armor and all. The Chosen One quickly grabbed the Henry-sicle, brought him to the top of the screen, and threw him down with all his might. The taskbar snapped in half, and the ice around Henry shattered, taking his armor with it. The Chosen One flew down, all ready to finish him off- and then he was suddenly grabbed by a grappling hook of sorts and thrust into the broken taskbar next to Henry, who jumped, grabbed onto an icon, and began throwing things. What things, The Chosen One wasn't sure - but it was evidently ALL the things. Every single item that could be of any help in killing him - Grenades, Sonic Weapons, an entire Wrecking Ball set (including truck)…everything.

And then it all hit him.

The Chosen one shouted and screamed. It hurt too much for words, and he was fading…slipping back into his inferior side. No, not after finally coming back! It couldn't end like this!

But, nonetheless, when everything was cleared. All that was left was a half-dead orange stick figure, The Second Coming. Henry jumped back onto the taskbar and ran up to him. One more move and he'd be gone - forever. He sent out his leg, performing his best "The Knee" he could.

Then TSC jumped out of the way.

Henry realized too late he'd been tricked - he was heading for, with no way to stop himself, the very portal he had sent the Minecraft Block into. He shouted in shock and he fell into the Recycling Bin, whereupon TSC simply jumped up to the bin, tapped it, and selected a single option.

"Empty."

-KO!-

The Second Coming fell back to the taskbar, completely spent. Well, he wasn't wrong when he had thought this guy would give him a fight. He looked around. The desktop was an absolute wreck. He'd have a lot of explaining to do when the Animator came home.

Remember kids; recycling is one of life's most important lessons!

Both Stick Figures were powerful with vast arsenals, but there were some clear-cut advantages. Henry's arsenal may have been larger in regards to useful items and he has more experience in using his, but TSC's arsenal held more powerful and viable tools and a near-infinite amount of each. A TNT block alone easily matches and surpasses any of Henry's explosives, and the Diamond Sword cuts through his melee weapons with ease. Henry was forced to rely on his more off-beat and high-tech items from the start, which gives him a disadvantage, since he can't use these nearly as well as he can anything basic. While many of his stranger items are more powerful than anything the Minecraft Block can make, such as Magic Pencil, the Warp Star, and the Transdimensionalizer, he has clearly shown his inability to use many of them with any degree of success. That, combined with things like constant Golden Apples healing any damage TSC would take and his spawners vomiting out monsters to take the punishment for him, meant TSC could, for a good long while, easily compete with and counter Henry's arsenal with the Minecraft Block alone. It should be noted, though, that, because of Henry's incredible judgment abilities, he would eventually see the Minecraft Block itself as a threat and endeavor to get rid of it, which at some point, he likely would be able to do. True, he could steal it with his fantastic thiefing skills, but Henry has also shown a complete inability to properly use virtually any newly-acquired item correctly. He generally ends up killing himself more often than not. Besides that, TSC has beaten a stick figure wielding that Block before with nothing but the barest of items. And though it would inevitably end up destroyed or thrown into the recycling bin, that wouldn't likely happen until late in the fight, as Henry has never been able to plan ahead but instead goes by the seat of his pants all the time. This gives TSC plenty of time to whittle down Henry's arsenal, and he could easily handle whatever few items remained afterward. And while Henry could Earthbend and Metalbend some of the objects created with the block, the majority he couldn't. Overall, both arsenals were pretty much on even ground, and countered each other quite effectively. The only problem is that, without his arsenal being a huge factor, Henry always comes up short.

TSC has never needed the Minecraft Block to accomplish his most impressive feats, but Henry is reliant on his arsenal to a fault. This is clearly shown when comparing their physical accomplishments: In Strength, Henry snapped an AK-47's bullet back with enough force to break the gun in half - or about 5.8 tons of force. TSC, meanwhile, easily lifts and handles entire blocks of gold, each of which would weigh 17.3 tons. But that's nowhere near his limit - he's shattered steel with his bare hands and outmatched his Stick Figure friends that held back a obsidian giant that must have weighed an absolute minimum of 149 tons, clearly putting him way ahead of Henry here. For Speed, Henry caught the previously-mentioned bullet in the first place. Considering he was a good 27 feet away and an AK-47 shoots with a rate of 2350 f/s, he must have seen the bullet coming and plucked it out of the air in 0.012 seconds. However, The Chosen One dodged a high-velocity shotgun bullet from a similar distance - and these bullets travel at 1220 m/s. This means that he had to recognize the bullet and dodge it in less than 0.007 seconds - far faster what Henry did. In Durability, Henry's greatest feat was likely when he fell off the roof of a building at least 38 stories high and survived the landing, which would have hit him with over 40,000 lb of force. However, TSC was smashed into by several cars and trucks going along a freeway and was fine. A two-ton car going at the average highway speed of 60 MPH would have hit him with over 400,000 lb of force - again, well beyond Henry. And he tanked several of these in a row! To top all that off, Henry's physical accomplishments aren't really that consistent. Falling a mere 10 stories has killed him, and even though he caught an AK-47's bullet from a mere 27 feet, he was unable to dodge a pistol's bullet from over 50 feet away, which should have been a cakewalk, all things considered. Meanwhile, TSC's physical feats are all in the same ballpark, with little to no changes throughout.

To recap:

Strength:

Henry: 5.8 tons

TSC: 149 tons

Speed:

Henry: 0.012 seconds

TSC: 0.007 seconds

Durability:

Henry: 41,200 lb

TSC: 481,708 lb

Yeah, Henry stood no chance in physical prowess.

And, as The Chosen One, his powers absolutely destroyed Henry's. The only place Henry can claim superiority here is possibly in Earthbending, but other than that…Henry struggles to light his hand on fire without burning himself up, and The Chosen One manipulates screens filled with flames with ease. Henry can jump dozens of feet after some seconds of charging, and The Chosen One can fly effortlessly. Henry can use Zero-Point Energy (though both TSC and TCO had been trapped similarly before and escaped), and The Chosen One can make black holes. You tell me who has the edge here. Not even Fallout's Power Armor can match up to The Chosen One's power.

The Second Coming has a number of other advantages. He's smooth and precise, and Henry is clumsy. He's able to lay out complex plans to win out over far superior opponents in mere seconds, and Henry struggles to find his best option at every single point. His force of will allows him to keep fighting much longer than Henry could, and he can draw and create anything he needs at any point. Henry can do this, too, with the Magic Pencil, but he's such a terrible artist it barely matters. Henry has enough skill in martial arts to defeat a trained guard in one-on-one combat, but The Second Coming can defeat martial art masters in just a couple of blows.

"Oh, but," you say, "Henry is able to see his best scenarios at any point and take the path that will let him survive. Doesn't that mean The Second Coming can never kill him?" Well, no. Remember, Henry is only able to see and take these options at the moment he needs it most. If he takes too long deciding or acting on his options, he's toast. But besides that, he has gotten to a point before where no amount of good decisions and luck could help him survive on several occasions. To quote the great Captain Jean-Luc Picard, "It's possible to make no mistakes and still lose." Considering The Second Coming had the advantage in nearly every way, it was only a matter of time before he pushed Henry to that same point.

In short, The Second Coming held a huge advantage in physical abilities and skill and held an arsenal that easily matched Henry's. Without it being there to get him out of tough spots, Henry ran out of options very quickly.

It seems that this time, poor Henry won't be getting a Second Coming.

The winner is The Second Coming.
