Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Death

Year 2703

Planet : Eclipse

Location : Fell City, District 183, Slums

!Crash! A boy , about 16 years old was shot through a metal shack, upon impact the metal shack exploded into smithereens , almost like someone had just blown it up with huge amounts of C4. The sheer force of the strike sent the kid flying for an extra 20 meters before hitting a concrete wall, causing an indentation and cracks to appear , as parts of the wall began to crumble.

"Urrgghh" the boy struggles to stand up, and unbelivable feet for a human to survive such abuse. Except , this boy was special, he was one of the many Alpha-humans bred for the sole purpouse of fighting and taking a beating.

The boy with his eyes closed , and with a grunt , lands back on his feet, steading himself.

"Impressive... No normal human could have survived that. Its just as they say, there is a kid with a body of titanium in this slum. You'll be the perfect specimen." A sinister voice sounds from the front of the kid.

A man, about 7 ft tall, Stacked with so much muscle it would be hard to recognize him as a mere human. Red spikey hair that sticks out about fingers length, glowing orange pupils, and wearing a pitch black body suit. If one focuses on his outline they can see immense heat radiating around him, giving him a distorted aura.

He stares intently at the boy, who just now opened his eyes, to reveal firey red pupils, glowing dangerously. The kid, standing at his full height, is about 6 ft, he has wavey red hair, reaching down towards his neck, but not covering his face. Wearing nothing but torn up black shorts, revealing his musculature , which can also be considered inhuman, a mountain of scars rein all over his body,showing his experience in battle. "Oh? , So you think you can just take me like that without even introducing yourself no less." the kid says, standing straight and glaring intensely at his oppponent.

"Well, I didn't think you would need to know my name if you were going to die, but you survived, so you alteast deserve that much. Its Mugato. Now, It'd only be fair if you told me yours kid."

"Huh you didn't really look like a guy who has manners, It's Tekkai"

The man grins, his mouth semi open, showing his sharp, tiger like cainines. "Good,now you will have to come with me, even if I have to drag your dead body. You see , a client of mine is looking for a strong body to experiement on. And unfortunatly for you, I've found yours to be the perfect one. "

Tekkai gives a deathly smile, also showing his abnormally large cainines, though not as large as Mugato's. "Well , I doubt you will be able to take this body of mine. But lets stop this chattering, I've been iching for a good fight ever since i've beat everyone in this damn slum."

Heat starts radiating from tekkai, even some steam starts spewing from his pores, the air around him starts distorting, the veins in his muscles buldge a bit.

Mugato squints his eyes, 'Dont tell me, is that a force technique? No way, a slum kid would'nt know one. I'll beat him as soon as he makes his move.'

Tekkai opens his mouth and sucks air in , taking a lunge stance, the veins in his feet buldge to ridiculous levels, and in an instant he disapears. A sonic sonic boom , and a blast of air soon followed. The next second, Mugato was flying high in the air at high speeds , blood leaking form his mouth as he processed what happened.

'What!?! when he used that technique, I couldn't even see him!!! In an instant he was gone and arrived right infront of me, and before I could even process what had happened he had already dug his fist into my gut!'

"Aaaarrrrghhh!!" Mugato was screaming in pain.

He started to decend, and in his descent he went through metal shacks, lot's of them, shack after shack after shack, as he started to slow down, he arrived at a patch with trees, rocketing through five of them , finally stopping. at his 6th. By that time he had already broken three vertebrae and two broken ribs.

"Huff.. Huff" He lays there, unwilling to move, waiting for his body to repair itself. 'three broken vertebrae , Two shattered ribs , this should take about 10 minutes to heal .'

Then he hears a voice he wasn't expecting to hear.

"Oh, already down with that one punch , I thought you would be more of a challange."

Mugato scrunching his eyebrows , his eyes practiclly flames 'How did he get here this fast, was he flying with me?' . He stands up , and tries to punch Tekkai's face. "YOU BASTARD!!!"

Tekkai managed to step away from the punch, but he is cought unaware when he feels something hit his abdomen. A fist, Tekkai coughs blood and is shot through the wilderness crashing into multiple trees.

He manages to stop himself from skidding any further by flipping himself upright. "H-How?" he sputters, A pain consuming him in the abdomen. he is confused, 'how could he hit me like that, where did that fist come from.'

"Hah, don't underestimate me brat, you think that you're the only one with a technique, well bad news for you slummy , Ive got multiple techniques to shove up you're ass. This one is called the phantom tiger." Mugato says as he gets into a fighting stance , resembling a tiger, with one hand stretched toward his side, and the other at the hip, in a fist. the air distorts around him, and ripples of steam flow from under him.

"Okay... Nice technique I guess, But I'll still beat you." Tekkai says in a not so caring voice.

'I cant use my Catapult Fist for another 10 minutes, I'll need to find his weakness in that time, so he cant counter it with his phantom fist.'

In a burst of speed , tekkai shifts himself 2 meters to the left, dodging another attack by Mugato. He then swiftly jumps on a tree's branch.

Tekkai squints his eyes, red mist starts flowing from them, looking intently at Mugato.

Mugato lunges once again at Tekkai, and his world slows down to a crawl, Everything looks slow motion to him. He is closely studying Mugato's technique for any weaknesses.

'His ears twitch, just like a cat.. Hmm this could work.' while in slow motion , Tekkai grabs a peice of bark from the tree he is sitting on. Then the world returns to normal , as he does a pre-programmed jump towards another tree.

Mugato missed again. 'Damn he's fast.'

"Enough playing around, are you really that scared of me?" says Mugato

"Wad'ya mean , Im wide open here..."Tekkai says while opening his arms to the sides invitingly, a peice of bark resting on one of his toes.

"Dont mock me!" Mugato screams, hes had it with this kids bullshit moves.

Mugato delivers strength to his legs and jumps faster than ever before towards Tekkai, he rears his fist back , preparing a phantom punch. But about 1 feet away from tekkai and about to deliver the punch he feels an enormous pain in his right ear. He looses his aim because of the distracting pain , missing Tekkai's head by millimiters.

Tekkai smiles 'It works, what a stupid weakness to have haha!'

Tekkai taking advantage of the situation. With astounding speed , kicks mugato in the face, turining it into a bleeding mess on impact. A blow that wouldn't had been possible if not for the distraction , as mugato could've blocked it.

Mugato screams as he is sent flying a great distance, shooting into a clearing and smashing into a rock. That stops his momentum, but it crumbles under the force.

Mugato coughs a serious ammount of blood, his black suit already in tatters from all of the abuse, rips everywhere.

Tekkai arrives infront of him, he is less wounded but is bleeding from the mouth and has several cuts from all of the crashing.

"Puahh! You did well kid, to get me into this state, I commend you , but you will not win this fight. I didn't want to use this , mostly because of my ego, but you've forced my hand."

Mugato digs into his pockets and pulls out a black rectangle that fits perfectly on his hand, It looks kind of like a sword hilt.

And that's exactly what it is , as a blade swiftly pulls itself from the rectangle, an orange blade radiating inmense heat.

"This is a techtonic blade, specially designed to cut through flesh with ease."

Tekkai frowns, beads of sweat start covering his face. And not because of the heat, but because of what the weapon is. 'That is Class 1 Neon Blade, that is serious business, if that even gets a little close to my skin, i'll be roasted like a boar. I need to avoid that as much as possible. I cant back down now, not when he's still alive, his contractor will just keep sending more men after me if he reports and who knows how much stronger they'll be.'

"Get ready, for your death!"

Mugato takes up a sword stance, with a shockwave he moves infront of Tekkai, and starts slashing. Tekkai barely dodges each one , as it has a bigger reach than fist.

'He's gotten much faster too, It could be that swords doing, or maybe he was a swordsmen all along.'

Since they are now in a clearing, he doesn't have places to hide or much cover, except for the ocassional gaint rock.

This continue for a minute straight, slashing and dodging, each time it's getting harder to dodge. But he finds releif as he spots a nearby rock. mustering some of his stamina he sprints towards the rock, Mugato at his tail. He takes cover behind the rock, but mugato slices it in half, cleanly , the two halves seperate and fly into the air.

Tekkai takes this upportunity to jump towards on of the flying halves narrowly avoiding a sword stricke, using it as a platform to attack the back of mugato, he launches him self. Kicking his back two times, simultanously causing mugato to rocket forward from the force.

And while that happening Tekkai charges forward towards mugato with all of the strength he can muster.

'Ten minutes are up!'

Rearing his fist back, he is finally facing the shocked mugato, who turns his head to look at him. 'Catapult!' with his strongest catapult yet, he hits mugato square in the face.

Upon contact with the steaming fist , mugato's face completely caves in, His skin rips, His eyeballs pop out of his skull , teeth and gore are sent outward. Skull fragments bombard his brain, grinding it into a mess.

His head basically explodes, while his body is sent flying several hundred meters.

Tekkai is all out of energy, everytime he uses that technique it drains away at his life-force. It's been through pure will power that he managed to fight this long.

the momentum from his charge keeps him going for a few meters until he hits a large stone.

He then feels a horrible stinging pain from his chest. He hears the sound of sizzling flesh.

"Uarghh.." He vomits a stream of blood.

He looks down to see a sword , imbedded right where his heart should be.

'Heh, looks like that sneaky cuck got me with one of his phantom fist, nice combination with the sword...'

His body starts smoking, and his body bursts into flames, burning his flesh and muscles, giving him a slow and painful death. But he doesn't scream, He just closes his eyes and accepts it all.

'I guess it's my time, I knew I couldn't live long in a world such as this, where the strong only survive. Dog eats Dog, just wish I could've atleast spread my genes before the end came. Oh well...'

In the slums of fell city, everything depends on strength.

Technology is forbidden by the rich, so people rely solely on training their bodies to the extreme. Selective breeding is common, if you are not strong , you wont get a girlfriend, only the strongest genes will survive here. Children are born with the ability to walk and see right after being born. and are put through insane training regimes that will make any normal human die, at age 3. Then abandoned to fend for themselves at age 7. Theoretically , that ammount of training an genes, should extend one's lifespan by about 100+ years , but most don't live past 20. Due to constant fighting.

As the flames consume his body , Tekkais brain slowly shuts down, his burnt nerves already cancelled all pain.

Finally his vision goes black.
