บท 29: The Mysterious Intruder (Part Four)
Age 1991
Okane ran forward towards the man as Officer Bradley gave a wide, and nasty smirk. The police officer jumped into the air as he reached into his pocket pulling out a long metal knife.
"I buy iron skin for three thousand Bells," Okane announced running his card through the air once more. His body glowed brighter as the number above his head changed into a '5000.'
The knife hit his chest and stabbed through his clothing but the blade quickly snapped off.
"Bastard! That was my favorite weapon!" The officer shouted out.
"I buy master of all things martial arts for fifty thousand Bells," Okane announced suddenly performing feats of high-speed combat. He fought like a master martial artist immediately hitting the police officer where it hurt. His fist flew out like a blur smashing in the man's arms, and legs. "I buy super speed for fifty thousand Bells!" He shouted getting even faster as he rammed his fist into the man's gut.
Despite that though Officer Bradley apparently didn't notice or care as he kept bringing his broke blade down on Okane. The Noble last out a small hiss of pain as the knife actually managed to pierce through his shoulder after the first few attempts.
Okane slammed his foot into his opponent's gut pushing himself off of the man and sending him away. "I'll buy accelerated healing for fifty thousand Bells." Okane's shoulder glowed a bright green then slowly closed.
"I'm going to rip you apart limb by fucking limb..." The police officer said quietly. He reached up and impaled both his hands into his side. Blood sprayed out and seconds later he ripped out two pieces of his own ribs. The ribs began to get longer and sharper and before long they took on the shape of two bone blades. "I would be careful if I were you. One cut from these bad boys and I'll infect you. After that, I win..."
"Why are you telling me this?" Okane questioned raising an eyebrow as he held himself up in am elegant manner.
"Because it'll be funny when you slip up. It'll be hilarious to see the look of shock and horror on your face! The look of terror as you die." Officer Bradley let out a gleeful life. "I wanna see you suffer."
"I buy maximum defense for fifty thousand Bells," Okane muttered out. The number above his head was now an insane '205,000' and his entire body seemed to glow a bright green. "I can keep this up all day..." He said cooly.
"That makes two of us..."
And with that, they charged at each other once more.
"Geez... Watching this fight is unreal..." Hero muttered out. "They're so fast. My eyes are hitting just from trying to keep up-"
"I'm here!" Ken announced jumping out of the hole in their room. She now wore her Enforcer's uniform and had her sword unsheathed. Sera also quickly jumped out wearing her usual Nobles garb, although this time she actually had what looked like a small metallic pipe. "What did we mi- Whoa! Cool..." Ken muttered as she watched the fight between the Noble and the police officer.
It was certainly intense. The two went back and forth with Okane delivering blow, after blow, after blow. Despite all of his punches landing though, Officer Bradley just kept on coming. He fought like a wounded animal forgoing safety and just fighting to his absolute limit.
The fight between Jackson, and Zero, might have been more of a powerful feat, but it still lacked a candle to this battle. While it is true that neither Okane or Officer Bradley were anywhere near the level of Jackson or Zero the battle they were given was far more impressive. When Jackson and Zero fought it was a battle of honor. And yet both parties still held back. Zero more so... Here though. Neither man was holding back. This was a battle to the death. A bloody, brutal, painful-looking death...
"What do we do?" Ken questioned.
"That is highly disturbing..." Sera muttered out.
"Just leave them be." Hero said simply. "We'd just get in the way of their fight."
"I'll buy a powerful punch for one hundred thousand Bells!" Okane roared out as his fist smashed into the face of the police officer.
A massive boom echoed out as every window inside of the hotel shattered. The very floor exploded and the walls cracked. The entire building shook and for a second there was wave of air as the floor they were on collapsed onto the floor below it no doubt destroying any poor robot butler that was underneath it. The roof above them also exploded. And this was the damage just done to the surrounding area of the punch.
Officer Bradley was far, far worse...
The sonic boom ended as the man's body flew back rolling across, and grinding against the floor leaving a red streak as he slammed into the wall.
"Did... Did he just-" Sera said in horror as Ken raised a hand up shielding the Noble girl's eyes. This was the first time she would have been faced with. And for it to be one so brutal...
"Yeah..." Hero said after a few seconds of silence. "He just killed him."
Okane let out a small sigh. Steam rose from his fist and his fancy looking white glove was on fire. He slowly reached up sliding it off. "Well. I suppose that was interesting. At least for a few moments. He managed to amuse me-"
"Oh. I..s trhat wut I did..."
Everyone froze as they all turned to see Officer Bradley slowly pick himself back up...
"What! That's impossible!" Okane said in pure shock. "I was sure I felt your neck snap from the punch."
"O...Oh. I...It dud." Officer Bradley got back to his feet. Although that was a bit generous. His body was mangled. His flesh was literally beginning to fall off of him. And his head. Oh God, his head... His face was just caved in. His eyes were hanging out. His skull was beginning to pop out. He looked like a corpse. "G...Guess I... Tao. Strung-"
'Snap'
His jaw snapped off hitting the floor.
And that was the last straw as Hero, Ken, and Sera all screamed out in horror.
"That's messed up!" Hero shouted.
"Oh God! That thing was in our room!" Ken said in terror clinging to Hero's arm.
"I wanna go home!" Sera screamed.
Okane took a nervous gulp as he stepped forward. "What the hell are you."
There were several more cracking sounds as slowly but surely the thing began to heal... Well, that wasn't really true. It's skeleton healed. It even grew a new jaw. But the muscles, and the flesh, and the blood. Those parts stayed destroyed.
There was a loud crash as Dawson and Ren came crashing out of a wall that Dawson barged through, in his Demon mode.
"What the hell!" Dawson said in shock as he stared at the thing.
"What... What is that..." Ren said with wide eyes.
The empty eye sockets of Officer Bradley peered at Ren as whatever it was managed a small smile. "Ahh... What a pretty girl..."
Dawson instantly stepped in front of Ren putting himself between her and that monster.
"Well..." A new darker and much more sister voice spoke as a small laugh came from the thing. "I seemed to have failed. I wasted to much time. Chances are the other Enforcers are on their way. It would be a real pain to have to fight you all at once. I could even die. Guess I'll be leaving."
"Like hell, I'm letting you get away!" Okame screamed out.
"Oh... Who said you got a choice?" And with that. The thing slowly reached up and began to rip off the flesh, and muscle that was on it. It tore off Officer Bradley. When it was all said and done a grinning skeleton was all that left.
Sera hit the floor losing her lunch as the thing discarded poor Officer Bradley...
"I'll be seeing you... Girl..." He said as his eyes locked onto Ren's... And with that he stepped backwards through a hole in the wall falling out of the building, and into the city below.
