Chapter XXX: The Woman in Red

Chapter XXX: The Woman in Red

Atop the Empire State Building a woman stands. The full moon battles against the lights of the massive city.

There, with her swaying long jet-black hair, a woman dressed in red stands. She was Ruphir, the beautiful woman of the Iusta Vindicta. Her piercing and sharp eyes look down to the city, and the small ruby she has incrusted in her forehead shines with the lights of the metropolitan city.

“It is time…” she says to herself.

Suddenly a loud explosion is heard and a huge column of black smoke rises to the skies.

In Washington 52nd Street in Long Island, the Bank of America was burning in raging flames. People (as always) react scared and run away from there like flies.

Meanwhile, Dwayne was sleeping in his apartment, not having a clue on what was happening. Then the window opens… it was Alphonse.

“He’s sleeping…” he thinks. Though weird, Dwayne was sleeping a Friday, and it was just 9:27PM.

“Dwayne,” says Alphonse. Agitated Dwayne wakes up.

“There are problems,” says the blonde-haired man.

Dwayne, now transformed as Crnobog, and Alphonse, make their way to Long Island, jumping from building to building. Eventually they arrive at the scene, where Police had already surrounded the building. Firemen were on their way too.

With style, Crnobog appears in front of the burning building, with Alphonse by his side. Most people were feeling a bit relieved now, even the Police, to the point of muttering “We are not needed here anymore”. The scene had caused a crowd to congregate around the burning building.

Then from within that burning hell a man appears, walking out of the fire like nothing had happened. With fire as his background, the man introduces himself, “My name is Eddy Barnes, called by friends Ed B, but sadly, you are not my friend,”.

"I am from the Iusta Vindicta,” the man says as he grabs a whip from his back… quite long too (maybe twelve feet).

His dreadlocked hair and black skin shined with the fire as background.

“Iusta Vindicta…” says Crnobog (at 25% state).

“You know why I am here, so I’ll just go straight to the point: I am here to kill you,” he says.

Alphonse then stares at Crnobog, “This was a lure,”. “And we bit it,” replies Crnobog.

Ed B smiles and stares at the two men in front of him. “Fucking losers,” he says as his smile grows bigger.

“Should we fight?” asks Alphonse. “Yes… we will fight,” replies Crnobog as he extends his right arm to the right. Then a current of electricity appears by his hand’s side and black particles sprout out of Crnobog’s skin. They surround the electricity and eventually form a dark scythe with a spiked chain at its other end.

“Well then… you shall feel the Iusta Vindicta’s power…” says Ed B as he swings his whip over his head, with a raging fire behind him.

“COME!” he yells.

Crnobog sways his scythe horizontally, shooting a powerful electricity burst from it.

Ed B smiles and then, like pure magic, quickly moves to the right (he seemed to disappear and reppear).

“Speed is his technique,” says Alphonse as he draws his katana and charges at Ed B.

”Two versus one… fitting… two weaklings fighting a demi god!” yells Ed B as he attacks with his whip.

”Thread versus Steel…” says Alphonse as he unleashes a powerful slash, whose objective was to break the whip, but the katana stopped cold when it collided with the whip. The whip quickly begins to surround Alphonse’s katana, turning around it.

“Give that to me!” yells Ed B as he pulls back his whip, along Alphonse’s sword.

“I won’t allow you!” says Crnobog as he opens his mouth widely and from it shoots a powerful fire blast (it was like a sphere made of raging fire).

Ed B quickly jumps over the fire blast and with swift movement sends the whip towards Crnobog. At the same time he lets go of the katana, which serves like a spear.

Crnobog stares at the sword and, with haste, jumps, avoiding the katana.

Alphonse then aims at Ed B and from his hand shoots a green fire blast. Ed B counters by ‘dancing’ in circles while mid air. The fast movement of the whip collides with the incoming blast, and an explosion quickly takes place.

“We are two and he’s one yet we can’t beat him…” thinks Crnobog as he stares at the black man, now landing over the ground.

“Then…” thinks Crnobog as electricity begins to surround him.

“ACTIVATE FIFTY PERCENT!” he yells.

“System Activated. Unleashing 25% of additional power. Raising… Raising… Completed. Overall Power: 50%”

“Fifty Percent of Power Confirmed” says Crnobog, with a darker tone of voice, his eyes shining red.

“Come!” yells Ed B.

Crnobog then begins his attack by swaying the scythe’s chain around his own body. Ed B once again smiles, and copies Crnobog’s movement.

“What will ya do?” asks Ed B with his cocky smile. Then Crnobog stares at him and smiles back. Suddenly, Ed B is sent backwards into the fire behind

”Psychic powers…” thinks Alphonse.

“Kinetic Energy Gathered”

“You wanted to play, then so be it”

Then Crnobog’s body begins to be surrounded by a twister of electricity.

“What is that?” thinks Alphonse, seeing Crnobog’s movement.

“HYAAH!” yells Ed B, charging from inside the burning building.

“Die!”

Crnobog unleashes the Electric Twister and it heads towards Ed B at quick pace.

“I can easily avoid that!” he yells. But then, suddenly, his body couldn’t move. “WHAT!” he screams, watching the incoming twister.

“MY LORD! SAVE ME!” he yells as the twister collides with him. Instantly his body begins to shake and the electricity to burn his body. His body was shaking intensely. Letting his whip fall, his body begins to levitate along the Electric Twister. In a split second, the twister along Ed B’s body… explodes.

“Incredible…. He used his psychic powers to stop that man in his tracks. He also moved the twister with his powers and finally levitated them both. That man… is… undefeatable,” thinks Alphonse, extremely surprised.

Lightning currents begin to surround Crnobog’s body, and in a few seconds he puts his right knee in the ground and began to breath with haste.

“Not Enough Fuel, Reverting”

Quickly after that Crnobog’s eyes stop shining red and his scythe disintegrates.

“I don’t have enough ‘fuel’… I don’t have enough blood inside me,” says Crnobog, staring at the ground. “You need blood… right? Like that time against Mordred, your body automatically began to gather the blood of those dead and then you rose up. You need blood to fight… yet you have been fighting all this time and your body has not faltered once, except lately,” says Alphonse.

“My own body can regenerate a portion of its own blood. But lately, with all this heavy fighting, I have been using more than what my body can make,” says Crnobog.

“Then you need blood… We need to find you some,” says Alphonse.

“No… I swore to myself that I would never use human blood to gain my powers. It’s like a taboo to me… I can’t do it,” he says, standing up once more and looking at the fire in front of him.

Suddenly, from inside the building, a yell was heard. It was a woman.

“There’s someone inside!” says Crnobog. Immediately he sets off running towards the hell in front of him. Alphonse was right behind him (like always).

Inside the building… lying over the ‘checker’ tiled floor was a beautiful woman. She moves up her head and stares at Crnobog. Yet this woman was special… she had a small ruby in her forehead. She was Ruphir from the Iusta Vindicta.

“I am coming!” yells Crnobog. Quickly he jumps over the fire blocking the entrance and then stares at her. There he stands shocked… witnessing that woman’s beauty. His eyes open and he is left breathless for a second or two. Her eyes were piercing straight through his.

“I’ll get you out,” says Crnobog, finally waking up from the sudden slumber. He runs towards her and grabs her legs and then her head, and lifts her defenseless body from the ground.

Alphonse was also there, staring at the beautiful woman.

“She’s gorgeous…” he thinks as he sees Crnobog running towards him with the woman on hands. “Come!” he says. “Yes,” replies Alphonse.

Meanwhile, atop a nearby building, a man was standing, staring clearly at the burning building. It was General Mack Mach of the Iusta Vindicta.

“Report: He was only using a fraction of his power at the beginning of the fight. His fireball attack was weaker than the one he used in the fight against Arthur Longheart, better known as Mordred, possibly fifty percent weaker. After that he seemed to raise his overall power, noted by his shining red eyes. He didn’t sprout his wings. A new attack was formed today, spinning his chained scythe like a twister, causing kinetic energy. That energy was stored inside him probably, and then unleashed when he needed to. This is probably an attack he learned on the fly, or better put… he remembered it. He used psychic attacks far more in this fight than previous ones, and he’s using them smartly. Ed B was easily defeated by Crnobog and his fellow GenoBIO. Ruphir has made contact,”

Those words were what Mack was writing in a piece of paper.

“Yeah but I got my ass very kicked,” says Ed B who was behind Mack and looking at the piece of paper (and very wounded as well).

“Well… then let’s make sure we don’t put you against him again. Let’s go…” says Mack turning around. “Ruphir will finish him for sure…” says Ed B, staring at the ground where Crnobog and Alphonse were already out of the building, with Ruphir by their side. “She will,” says Ed B, also turning around and walking behind Mack Mach.
