"Talk"
'Thought'
The Masked Imp continues to try to shoot Nero with her gatling gun chainsaw, also known as 'Lollipop', though none of the bullets seemed to be reaching him as he continues to deflect them away by shooting his own gun, Blue Rose, and once he reached her, he quickly kicks her weapon out of her hands, letting fall and stab into the ground, before finally landing on top of the large statue with his so called enemy and quickly aimed his revolver at her, to which she did the same with her own gun, it seemed to look like, or something similar, to a Winchester Model 1887 with a blade at the tip of the barrel, it also had a named carved into it, 'MaPa Terminator', the two were now at a Mexican standoff, none moved a muscle or showed fear, just staring and glaring at one another, ready to pull the trigger once one of the two showed a opening
"So, mind telling me why you feel so familiar to me?"
Nero honest question of confusion was left unanswered as the Masked Imp pulled a cheap trick of not using her MaPa Terminator, that he was focused on, and used to chainsaw chains that was unwrapped from her wrist and tried to whip him with it, luckily he was able to see and jump away to avoid the surprise attack, though he didn't get far as she also jumped after him and wrapped her legs around his waist, so that he couldn't escape, she quickly aimed her gun at his face and pulled the trigger, he responded to this by biting onto the barrel and force it to aim away from his head, making her miss her shot, he then aimed his Blue Rose under her chin and pulled the trigger, though much to his surprise, a tail came out from under the Masked Imp dress and was used to grab and pulled it away from her, also making him miss a shot, there was a momentary mid air struggle between the two, as both tried to shoot one another, but once the young faunus realized that he was getting nowhere, he changed tactic, after missing and dodging another shot, he quickly took the chance hit her with his elbow, the blow was enough to make her loosen up her leg grip, to which he took full advantage of that and pulled himself completely free before kicking her away, which sent her down roughly but still landed on the head of the statue, as for him, the kick managed to send him up on the ceiling, to which he used to plant his legs on it and pushed him back towards his opponent, aiming his gun at her and fired, she quickly reacted by quickly shooting back, resulting in both bullets bouncing off each other and away from their target, Nero wasted no time shooting again while preparing to tackle her down, though this time she jumped over the shot and got above him, using both of her feet to kick him down below, who tumble and stumble between the stone statue and sword, but he managed to catch himself and look up to that the Masked Imp landed on the tip of the stone sword, but was a bit off balance, after looking at the position that he was in, he had a plan, which involved using brute strength to push the stone sword down, resulting in the statue hand that held the sword to break and started to fall, which did startled her more and nearly made her fall off, to which he took this moment of opportunity to run up the falling sword and try to shoot at her again, who only had enough balance to dodge the shot, but it was still enough of a distraction to jump kick towards her, who quickly blocked it with both of her arms, though it still sent her flying back and landed hard on the ground, but she was able to recover quickly and aimed her gun at him again, who also landed back on the ground and did the same thing to her, though before he could pull the trigger, the Demonic Hellhound came out of nowhere and bit into the arm that held the gun.
"Shit! Forgot about him!"
Nero wince in pain, this time feeling the acid burn his human arm, though while struggling to get the Hellhound off, he suddenly heard something start to wind up, he looks up and saw that the Masked Imp has regained her Lollipop and was preparing to use the gatling gun mode, his distraction and the gun sound was enough to let the Demonic Dog know what to do next, he used both of his claws to grab onto the Son of Belladonna and toss him towards his owner, to which she wasted no time shooting at him, with his arms still healing from the bite, he was forced to defend himself with his devil arm, which did block most of the shot, though when getting shot at he noticed that the bullets, while obviously dealing damage to him, it wasn't necessarily piercing his body like normal bullets
'Huh?'
This confused Nero, though he ignores as it didn't change the fact that he was getting shot at, and once his arm was healed up, he reached for his Red Queen from his back and pulled it out, to both stop his mid air flight, by stabbing it in the ground, and used the flat side of the blade to block all the incoming bullets, though he didn't get a chance to think as the Desolate One pounces at him, ready to bite into, or do something worse, to him, but without even looking, he aimed his Blue Rose, which started to glow and steam a bit, and shot the Hellhound, making it roar in pain as it then suddenly exploded and fell hard onto the ground, next to the Masked Imp, who stopped shooting to move out of the way, while looking at her pet with a concerned (?) expression, though she immediately lets out a sigh in relief as the Demonic Dog slowly got up while slowly healing itself
"I'm not like her when it comes to hating dogs."
The Masked Imp and the Desolate One looked back at Nero, who was back at his feet and started to rev up his Red Queen, which heat up and even turned the blade slightly red from the sudden rise of temperature
"But I can definitely understand her feelings…"
After the Masked Imp saw Nero getting ready to fight with his sword, she decided to do the same, not only going melee mode on her Lollipop but also turned on her chainsaw mode as well, letting the chain blades spin very fast, which made him smirk
"Bring it."
As soon as Nero said this, the Masked Imp was already in front of him, which startled him slightly and barely had enough time to block when she brought down her chainsaw sword, to which she then backed away after being blocked and blitz towards him again, a special sword dance has started between the two fighters, the the unknown rival was doing multiple and very quick hit and runs, each time her Lollipop was blocked, she would always jump and do it again with enough speeds that she left multiple afterimages of herself and almost looked like she was teleporting everywhere, and as for the Son of Belladonna, while he had the speed and power to keep up, he was a bit inexperience with this level of challenge, which left him stumbling and receiving small cuts here and there, but that doesn't mean he was completely outmatched, the speed was definitely something new to him, but when it came to strength, he had plenty, after having a moment of getting overwhelmed, he blocked one more attack from the Masked Imp with his Red Queen and quickly used his devil arm to grab onto the chainsaw, his thick demon skin was durable enough to withstand the spinning blade, his opponent struggled to pull away from his strong grip
"Maybe take a break from coffee and switch to milk~"
Nero couldn't help but feel show off some smugness, even if the Masked Imp had ruined today with her assassinating the old fart pope, he couldn't help himself in having fun with the fight he was in, he heard a loud roar and saw that the Hellhound had just pounced towards him, no doubt wanting to help his owner after seeing her struggling, though the one with the devil arm smirks and suddenly summoned a ghost like are to reach out and grab onto the Demonic Dog, holding it up high in the air and refusing to let go, no matter how much he struggles, the one that held onto the two wasted no time slamming their bodies together before tossing them aside
"That was for ending church early… Man that sounded weird saying."
Nero shakes his head as he lays his Red Queen on his shoulder and watch the Masked Imp slowly got back up to her feet
"You got skills, I will admit that, enough to give the NYX's a run for their money, but I know you're at your limits, I've seen your speed decreased during our dance."
Nero leans on his sword while watching the Masked Imp stab her Lollipop on the ground, using it to keep her standing and stable
"So hears the deal, tell me why your merc the holy grandpa and I'll only convince to only let my big bro Credo to-"
Before Nero could finish talking, the Masked Imp quickly bursts with pure, raw and uncontrollable power, such unhidden potential was strong enough to not only force him to tense up and plant his feet down so to not slide away, but after finally releasing her full power, she quickly dash forward towards him and slammed her head and horn into his chest, knocking the breath out of him and sent him flying back, crashing into a bunch of benches, after doing this, she was just left standing there, panting and trying to catch her breath, all the while letting the power she was releasing die down
"See, at your limits."
The Masked Imp looked up and saw that Nero was casually sitting and balancing on the top pile of benches, seeing this made her laugh, which surprise him, since this was the first time he has heard her make any kind of sound, even more so when she started speaking
"Hehe, you're just like my Mommy and Daddy~"
The Masked Imp then removed her mask and looked up at the Son of Belladonna, showing off her white grey hair with yellow tips, a orange black horn on her opposite side of her head and chin, and had bright happy blue eyes with red pupils, he couldn't help but look shock when he saw her smiling face
"B-BIANCA?!"
BTW, Bianca is alone, she didn't come to Fortuna with Dante and Yang, though the reason why will be explained later.
(I hope you liked the fight, I tried my best to show enough but not to much, I don't want Nero and Bianca going all out instantly and use everything, so I hope this was satisfactory~)
