(The Dastardly Duo)
January 14th, 1907*
*Iv Plains*
Keiko and Flynn were engaged in a heated battle against Tweedledee.
"Rose Petals: Camellia Swirl!" Keiko cried out, using her sword to swing it directly at her opponent, hoping to hit him with it.
Soon after, a slew of Camellias rushed at Tweedledee, hitting him and sending him flying back.
During this, Tweedledee quickly landed on his feet, preparing for an attack of his own.
"Tweedle Punch!" Tweedledee cried out, propelling himself forward to Keiko, eager to punch her.
"Flower Petals: Rose Blitz!" Keiko cried out in an attempt to swing her sword at him; however, she was unable to since Tweedledee was too fast.
Soon after, Tweedledee successfully punched Keiko in the cheek, sending her flying while Tweedledee prepared for another attack.
"TWEEDLE BOMBER!" Tweedledee cried out, preparing a large red energy ball before sending it directly in Keiko's direction.
After this, the attack came rushing toward Keiko and it was able to hit her, slightly injuring her.
"Is that all? I expected…" Tweedledee attempted to speak in a smug voice; however, this was interrupted by a voice, catching his attention.
"Hurricane Bliz: Cyclone Rush!" Flynn cried out, swinging his sword at Tweedledee, causing a huge gust of wind to hit the large man.
The impact of the attack caused Tweedledee to groan in pain, sending him flying in the air.
"I'm not done yet. You're going to pay for harming Keiko." Flynn spoke to Tweedledee in a serious voice, using his foot to propel himself toward his opponent with great speed.
After flying toward the air, Flynn extended his sword, ready to strike again.
"Hurricane Blitz: Beryl Shine!" Flynn cried out again, swinging his sword at his opponent, causing another gust of wind to appear, hitting Tweedledee quite hard as he crashed into the ground.
"Y-You little…" Tweedledee spoke in a growl, slowly getting up while preparing for an attack of his own.
"That little punk is fast. His movements are quite troublesome. I can't allow myself to be defeated by the likes of um…" Tweedledee thought to himself while slowly cracking his knuckles, ready to continue the fight.
Soon after, Tweedledee charged directly at Flynn, letting out a battle cry while preparing an attack from his right hand; however!
"Rose Petals: Jasmine Peril.." Keiko whispered, swinging her sword at Tweedledee, causing a slew of jasmine flowers to rush Tweedledee's direction, hurting him.
The impact of the attack left Tweedledee dazed, the large man wobbling in pain.
"W-What is.." Tweedledee uttered in shock, looking over to see Keiko slowly approaching him, her clothes tattered.
"You've ruined my outfit. I was going to go easy on you; however, that little attack pissed me off, you fat turd." Keiko spoke to Tweedledee, glaring at him before looking over to nod at Flynn, signaling for an attack.
After hearing this, Tweedledee growled in anger, still feeling the pain.
Immediately following this, Flynn and Keiko leaped into the air, putting their swords together for a combo attack.
"HURRICANE ROSE: CLYCOON IMPACT!" Keiko and Flynn cried out in unison, causing a huge gust of wind and roses to be sent toward Tweedledee's way.
The combined attack was a purple color and it was rushing toward Tweedledee, and unfortunately, Tweedledee could do nothing but curse on defeat.
"N-NO!" Tweedledee roared in defeat before being killed instantly by the attack as it exploded, leaving nothing but smoke.
Meanwhile, Alice watched the event with a disappointed expression, feeling sad about Tweedledee's demise.
"Oh no, Tweedledee failed…" Alice uttered in disappointment, sighing to herself as she continued to watch the battle.
Back at the battlefield, Dorothy and Tweedledum were engaged in battle, eager to win.
"Gaia Sunlight Flash!" Dorothy cried out, firing a huge energy attack from the cusp of her hands.
The energy attack came rushing toward Tweedledum; however, the large man quickly caught it using his hand.
"Such a puny attack. I won't be defeated by the likes of it." Tweedledum spoke in a confident voice as he began to push it back.
Following this, Tweedledum let out a cry, pushing the attack with his hand until he was able to deflect it back at Dorothy.
"O-Oh crap!" Dorothy cried out in surprise, using her arms to block her attack until it quickly dispersed.
After this, Dorothy winced in pain, blowing her arms to ease the pain and slight heat.
"This is going to be a problem.." Dorothy spoke to herself, looking up at Tweedledum, who quickly charged at her.
Tweedledum quickly rushed toward Dorothy, ready to attack her as he laughed.
"Crisis Buster!" Tweedledum cried out, forming a purple energy attack from his fists, ready to attack Dorothy.
Meanwhile, Dorothy charged at him, ready to counterattack the upcoming attack.
"Shining Star Buster!" Dorothy cried out, forming a star-shaped attack before quickly kicking it toward Tweedledum, hoping to damage him.
Both Dorothy and Tweedledum's attacks collided with each other, creating a small shockwave as Tweedledum tried to push the attack.
"I-I won't lose! I'm Tweedledum!" Tweedledum roared in motivation, feeling the strength he needed thus he was able to deflect the attack, sending it up in the air.
Right after this, the attack exploded in the air; however, Dorothy quickly charged toward her opponent.
Dorothy quickly punched Tweedledum in the stomach, catching him off guard.
"Take this!" Dorothy cried out, delivering a swift kick to his back, knocking him back on the ground.
"Impossible! I should be stronger.." Tweedledum thought to himself, quickly looking back at Dorothy, who was ready to continue the battle.
Soon after, Dorothy powered up, ready to unleash her attack.
"Gaia Sunlight Flash!" Dorothy cried out, quickly teleporting from sight, shocking Tweedledum.
"W-What?!" Tweedledum cried out in shock, and before he knew it, Dorothy quickly appeared in front of him.
"It's over!" Dorothy cried out, unleashing her attack as it managed to hit Tweedledum with full force.
Immediately after, Tweedledum screamed, feeling the impact of the attack as he had no choice but to take it full force.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, Keiko and Flynn watched the smoke from the distance.
"It seems Dorothy can handle this on her own, right?" Flynn spoke to Keiko, sitting down on the grass while Keiko nodded in agreement.
"Yup, I agree. Those two are a joke." Keiko responded in agreement, sitting down next to him, hoping for Dorothy's victory.
During this, Alice smiled innocently.
"Hmmm, I know! Let's make things interesting!" Alice spoke to herself, getting up from the ground and making her way toward the battlefield.
Back at the battlefield, the smoke cleared, and Tweedledum was alive, worn out from his battle.
"I see. It seems I've underestimated you.." Tweedledum spoke to Dorothy in a low voice, breathing heavily while Dorothy stared back.
"Geez, and I thought that would knock you out or something." Dorothy complained, sighing to herself as she quickly got ready for the next phase of the battle.
However, right when the pair was going to fight, Alice quickly entered the scene, leaving a small crater on the ground.
"Tweedledum, why haven't you killed the girl yet? It seems you're struggling.." Alice curiously asked Tweedledum, resting her chin on her hand.
"A-Alice. The girl is quite strong. I won't fail you once I truly get serious." Tweedledum responded, feeling shameful for his actions.
Soon after, Dorothy stared at Alice as she spoke to her.
"And who are you? You must work for Zorya, right?" Dorothy asked Alice in a serious voice while the young girl nodded.
"Hello, my name is Alice, and yes, I work for you. I love her and I want to see her happy, and by that, you must die." Alice responded in a sing-songy voice, taking out an apple while doing so.
Hearing this made Dorothy speak up once more.
"By helping her turn the world into darkness? What happiness do you even achieve by doing that?" Dorothy asked Alice, feeling annoyed at what she heard while Alice glared at her.
"You remind me of my mother. All of that constant nagging but without the…" Alice responded, smiling rather creepily, never finishing her statement.
"Anywho, I'm sure this next part will get even more exciting.." Alice spoke once more, handing the apple to Tweedledum, making the large man curious.
Right after giving Tweedledum the apple, she smiled at him.
"Eat this apple, and you'll grow strong, super strong! You'll even crush Dorothy's head! Just like people tried to do with me!" Alice advised Tweedledum in an innocent yet excited voice as Tweedledum nodded.
Following this, Tweedledum took a bite from the apple, chewing it and swallowing it.
There were a few moments of silence until Tweedledum roared in fury, feeling the effects of the power boost.
"T-THE POWER!" Tweedledum roared, growing more muscular and slightly bigger, surprising Dorothy.
"W-What the.." Dorothy uttered in shock while Alice laughed.
Will Dorothy be able to take down Tweedledum on her own?!
