The two women continued their intense stare down as the purple haired girl fist tightened in anticipation. Ziva, on the other hand, appeared to be more relaxed with an arrogant smirk on her face.
"Come on little angel, we don't have all day." She teased, using her hand to taunt her into attacking.
Fire in her eyes, her intensity grew as she took Ziva's invitation. "Don't you ever call me that!" She screamed as she tried her best to bash Ziva's face in. The two moved at high speed, powerful blows being dodged or blocked by Ziva, who appeared to be having no trouble at all with her newfound opponent.
Stepping lightly to avoid her attacker's punches, Ziva quickly tried to slash her with her claws, but her adversary slapped it away and tried to knock Ziva's head off with as much force as possible. "You're too slow sweetie." Ziva called out as she jumped back, causing the girl's golden gauntlet fist to crash into a pile of cars, destroying them with ease. A large explosion erupted around the newcomer as Ziva whistled as she saw the power her opponent held. "Now that's some power for you. Tell me something little angel, did you get an upgrade? Because the last battle we had you…" Ziva couldn't finish her sentence as she felt the girl's gauntlet fist meet the side of her face, connecting with her jaw.
Ziva seemed to be taken back as the sheer force of the blow knocked her through a few cement beams before her back slammed into a concrete wall. Her body bounced off the wall, making its way to the ground. Her expression was of that of a painful surprise as her opponent quickly rushed towards her and delivered a hard punch to the gut, causing Ziva to spit out blood.
"This is for everyone you killed!" She shouted as she returned her focus to Ziva's face as she threw a barrage of punches at the demon girl's head. "Arrrrgggghhhhhh!" The velocity and force admitted from this new fighter was nothing short of sheer amazement as she put every ounce of power into her attacks, connecting blow after blow. "Now die!" She screamed as she pulled her fist back, her hand glowing brightly as she slammed her fist into Ziva's face, creating a small dust cloud from the impact.
Meanwhile, Ira couldn't help but watch the spectacle from the sidelines, his eyes showing no more surprise than Ziva when she got pummeled. "Whoa…." Was all he manages to utter as the purple haired warrior fist remained still, still in inside the cloud of smoke that she caused.
Ira continued to watch before something caught his eye within the dust cloud. "WATCH OUT!" He screamed as the girl slightly glanced back at him for a second only for fear to set in a mere second later.
"Well now, that was actually pretty good. I'm impressed." The girl's eyes widened in horror as the dust cloud cleared away only to reveal that she had missed her mark. Her final punch didn't land; in fact, it merely created a hole right beside Ziva's head, who merely leaned it a bit to the right to avoid the last fetal blow. "I actually thought you were on to something there, I mean you almost knocked my head clean off, you should be proud of yourself." She smiled at her as the golden eyes that were once lit with fire, was now nothing more than a small dying flame.
"But…But how?" She stammered as Ziva leaned closer to her, her face mere inches away from hers.
"What's wrong? You should be happy you were able to hit me this time." Ziva's cheek touched her female opponent's as she could feel her body shaking from the realization that her attack did absolutely nothing. "Or…Are you scared because you know that you're still light years away from really…. Touching me. "Ziva lightly bit her ear, causing the girl to snap out of her trance and tried to pound Ziva in the side of the face again, but Ziva quickly dodged her attack and moved away from her.
"Nu uh uh, you're going to have to do better than that." Ziva taunted as her opponent gritted her teeth in sheer anger.
"You're dead." She seethed as she quickly rushed towards Ziva and started swinging wildly, hitting everything but her target.
"Oh come on." Ziva continued to taunt as she dodged another attack. "You're not even close." She ducked another punch. "What are you even aiming at?" She said as she moved her head to the right this time causing her opponent to miss again, but this time she caught her fist with giant claws and just stared at her with a blank but serious expression. "Where did all that fire go?" She asked as her opponent tried desperately to free her right hand from Ziva's grip, but to no avail.
"Let…Me…Go…" She struggled as she quickly tried to throw a punch with her left hand, but the same outcome occurred. Ziva with now both fists trapped in her massive claws, slowly brought her adversary to her knees, grunting in pain as she slowly squeezed her gauntlets within her grasp.
"Is that all you got little angel?" A small but crazed smirk appeared on her face as she began to squeeze tighter.
A loud scream could be heard as the sound of metal cracking began to echo throughout the parking deck as Ziva continued to slowly apply pressure on her opponent's hand. "You know, I actually thought you would be a challenge this time, but you're still not good enough to put up a decent fight." She squeezed tighter.
"Arrgggghhhhhhhhh!" The girl clenched her eyes shut as she screamed out in pain once again.
Sighing depressingly, Ziva continued her torture. "Well if you're not going to use these things properly, then I guess I'll just have to take them away from you. I mean, it's no point in you having them, right? It's not like you could ever do anything with them anyway." Her smirk widened as she was about to break the girl's hands. "Wasting a blessing like this, it's really disrespectful of you, you know that?" She continued to taunt as she added more pressure.
"Let her go!" Ira shouted out of nowhere as he came from Ziva's left side and delivered a hard-right hand to the side of her jaw, but to his shock, Ziva's head didn't budge.
His fist remained rammed against Ziva's jaw, but all she did was turn her head towards him and release her captive. "So, you still have some fire left in you? Good." Without a second to waste Ira was back hand by her monstrous claw, sending him spiraling backwards as his body crashed into the pavement as he slid a few feet away from her. "Come on, you jumped up to save her, didn't you?" Ziva reappeared in front of her fallen brother as he tried to pick himself up, only to be grabbed by the collar of his shirt and tossed into the cement wall, his back colliding with the beam with force, causing his body to bounce off of it as he fell face first into the ground. "After she attacked your one and only sister!" She kicked him in the stomach causing his body to lift off the ground, blood spewing from his mouth as a result. "Is that how it is Ira?" She questions as she grabbed him by the back of the head and lifted him up off the ground. "You're going to pick someone else over me? Someone that you don't even know?" Her hand began to squeeze his head, slightly adding pressure with each passing second.
"Do you know how mad that makes me Ira?" Ziva lightly bit her lip as Ira began groaning in pain as he tried to free himself from her grip, but it proved useless.
"Ziva…Stop…It…I…Can't." Ira tried to bare the pain delivered to him by his demonic older sister.
"It hurts doesn't it Ira. All the pain you feel from me squeezing the blood out of your head." She licked her lips again. "You're starting to get blood on my hands Ira." Ziva continued to add pressure to her brother's skull until the purple haired girl quickly charged at her. "Oh?" Ziva looked at her incoming opponent. "Looks like your little savior still wants to fight." A smirk returned to her face as she simply released Ira from her grip. His body dropping to his knees as Ziva dodged her opponent's fist yet again.
The two clashed in a close combat dance, Ziva's claws colliding with the girl's fist with some blows missing completely. They jumped and dashed throughout the remaining parts of the parking deck. Cars exploded and beams were destroyed as the stability of the building began to waver as the purple haired girl tried to bash Ziva in the face again with her golden gauntlet, but it was caught once again by Ziva's demonic hand. "Is that really all you got?" Her face full of disappointment. "And here I thought you were getting better." She shook her head in disbelief.
"Why?" The girl asked her, catching Ziva's attention. "Why can't I beat you? Why?" She growled.
Ziva's smirked widen. "It's really simple little angel." She leaned in closer to her purple haired adversary. "I'm just simply too much for you." She whispered in her face as her opponent trembled with anger. "Besides, don't you think it's about time you joined the rest of your family anyway." She added as her opponent's eyes shot up at the mention of her family.
"Screw you!" She shouted as she swung with her other hand and connected with Ziva's jaw, but Ziva forced her head back to face her assailant and bashed her into the ground. "It's really no use." She said as she was getting ready to hit her again, but suddenly a barrage of golden bullets shot towards her.
The bullets connected and exploded on impact creating a small dust cloud that faded away as soon as it came. "What the…." Before Ziva could finish, a charged blast shot towards her, impacting with her chest and sending her into a cement wall.
"Dammit Faythe, I thought you said you could handle her. "Another female voice shouted as a Brown skinned female dressed in the same attire as her fallen comrade stood in front of her. Her black ponytail waved in the wind, thanks to the force of the blast that she fired, moved a few bangs in front of her face as she looked back at Faythe. "Jeez, this is what happens when I leave everything up to you." She stated as she turned her back to face a pissed off Ziva.
Coughing behind her, Faythe slowly began to pick herself up. "Yea…Thanks…Nyx…I'm glad to see you to." She breathed heavily as she balled her fist up and got ready for another around.
"Well let's hope we both can say that after this." Nyx responded as she held a black colored pistol outlined in a gold design in her right hand, aiming and ready to fire at Ziva the second she moves. Her hands were covered by the same golden gauntlets that Faythe wore, but they were a bit smaller and fit like regular gloves. "Don't you think it's time to get serious?" Her golden eyes locked onto Faythe's.
Faythe quickly nodded and returned her gaze back towards Ziva who was now furious due to Nyx's interference.
"Let's do it." Nyx stated as they both closed their eyes and began to say a prayer. "Praise The Goddess, from whom all blessings flow; Praise Her, all creatures here below; Praise Her above, ye heavenly host: Praise Mother, Spirit, and Holy Ghost. Amen!" Both of their eyes shot up instantly, a golden aura appearing around both their bodies as a holy light shined from them. Their bodies slowly floated off the ground as the light that quickly surrounded them disappeared within their bodies and out of Faythe's right side and Nyx's left side of their back shot a beautiful white angelic wing.
Ziva gritted her teeth as she glared hatefully at the two one-winged angels that appeared in front of her. "Do you think that's going to work for you?" She screamed as she charged towards them with everything she had.
A smirk formed on both girl's faces. "Cover me!" Faythe shouted as she was the first to charge in.
"On it." Not having to be told twice, Nyx quickly pointed her gun at Ziva and let loose a few rounds of bullets. Ziva seeing the incoming bullets quickly dodged without any hassle, but her eyes quickly widen out of realization that Nyx was now shooting bullets at a ridiculous rate.
She cursed herself as she tried to dodge the oncoming assault, but Faythe quickly got within range and delivered a mighty blow to her stomach. Blood spat out of Ziva's mouth as Faythe smirk widens as she held Ziva up in the air with her fist alone. "Looks like I finally touched you huh?" Not waiting for a response Faythe delivered a powerful haymaker across Ziva's face, sending her flying through several cement walls and beams before she stopped herself from crashing into anything else.
Glaring hatefully at them, Ziva whipped her other arm quickly, turning it into a demon hand as well. "You're dead! Do you hear me? YOU'RE DEAD!" In a whirlwind of rage, Ziva launched herself towards the two angels.
Faythe readied herself, her fist tightly balled up as Nyx kept her pistol steady. Ziva was closing in on the two girls, drawing closer with each passing second. Her first target in her way was Faythe, she pulled her claws back, getting ready to slash through the Angel's flesh, but Faythe stood her ground as she got ready for Ziva's onslaught.
"I'm going to enjoy ripping that stupid wing off your body!" She seethed as she got within range of Faythe to attack her, but her eyes went from anger to confusion as another angel appeared in front of Faythe. Her short silver hair sparkled brightly as her gold eyes were locked onto Ziva's. She wore the same attire as the two previous angels, but with a few small but key differences. Her wing was outstretched out of the right side of her back as she hovered over the ground, time slowing down as the two came face to face.
"Dammit…?" Ziva cursed as new angel quickly opened her mouth and let loose a loud sonic wave towards Ziva, who tried to shield herself against the attack, but was blown back with ease; Her body flying backwards towards another newcomer who stood a bit taller than Faythe. Her blond ponytail swayed with a blue ribbon that tied it in the back. Her attire was also the same as the others, except she didn't where the white jacket that the previous three did. Resting on her shoulders, held but another pair of golden gauntlets with a large Halberd sword, which was gold at the hilt and the blade itself was Black with gold energy surging through the blade like cracks in the cement. Her golden eyes gleamed with excitement as she readied herself for her opponent, whose was unknowingly flying towards her.
"Batter up!" She shouted as she gripped her sword with both hands and delivered a powerful swing, connecting the blade with Ziva's back, forcing her to fly forward through a large portion of cars and debris, causing a huge explosion as the demon girl made impact.
The blonde-haired angel smiled triumphantly as she placed her Halberd on her shoulder. "And Yure just knocked her out of the park." She winked to no one in particular as the four girls quickly met up with one another.
"I'm glad you guys could make it on time." Faythe quickly stated happily as Nyx eyes fell on her.
"I told you we should have taken her together; it would have been a lot easier instead of you trying to go it alone." She scolded lightly. "You do realize we can't bail you out of trouble every time you get hot headed right?" She added as Faythe nodded her head slightly, before Yure quickly placed an arm around her.
"Hey Nyx, go easy on the poor girl." Yure smiled brightly. "We still got here in time and we brought down our target, I say it's a win/win." Her eyes glancing over towards Faythe. "Looks like we finally got her." She closed her eyes, giving Faythe a reassuring gesture.
"Victory." The smaller girl simply stated, holding up the peace sign with a blank expression on her face.
Faythe smiled at her as she knelt in front of her. "That's right Ekho, it's our victory." She stated as she placed her hand on top of Ekho's head and gently rubbed it, before standing back up, her expression turning serious as she turned her towards the direction where Ziva was slowly picking herself up. "Now let's finish what we came here to do." Faythe glared as she made her way towards Ziva who was coughing up blood.
"Well now, "cough; cough" this is a fine mess I got myself into." Ziva stated as she turned her to glance back at Faythe standing over her. "How about we call it even and you give this little demon a pass huh? What do you say?" Ziva tried to play her cards right, but Faythe wasn't falling for her game.
"It's over Ziva." Faythe glared down at her as the demon girl was on her hands and knees, breathing heavily. "You have nowhere left to run; it all ends here for you." Faythe continued to speak as Ziva looked up at her with a half-hearted smile.
"Oh, come on, do you really have to go and say my name like that?" Ziva joked as she turned on her side and looked up at the one-winged angel's towering form. "Besides what makes you think it's over? You haven't won yet little angel." Ziva spoke back as Faythe just gritted her teeth in response.
"The humans in this town are either dead and/or demonized, whichever you prefer, countless lives were lost again under the protection of you one wings. If anything, this is a repeat of what happened time and time again… Isn't it?" A smirk reformed on her face as Faythe brought her arm back instantly.
Ziva looked up at her, her expression still the same. "Tell me, what is the point of you even having these wonderful blessings if you can't save a single life with it?" She asked her as Faythe continued to glare down at her hatefully.
"Die…" She mouthed as she brought her fist down, but it came to a screeching halt as Ira appeared in-between the two with his arms stretched out and his bangs hiding his brown eyes from view. The girls looked at him with confusion written on their faces, except for Ziva.
"Right on time." She spoke mentally to herself.
Faythe stared at Ira's beaten form as he stood in front of her Gauntlet covered fist, her golden eyes filled with hate for the lifeform behind him. Her eyes slowly shifted towards Ira has he slowly lifted his head up, revealing his battered face with blood dripping down the side of it. His brown eyes locked on with Faythe's golden pupils. Through their visual contact, they automatically understood that they stood at a crossroad with one another, but Faythe didn't back down from her trophy. Her glare formed against Ira as she spoke harshly towards him. "You're in the way."
Glaring back at her, Ira stood his ground, shielding the falling girl from harm. "No, that's enough, she's down already. Just let me try and talk to…."
"Listen, I don't know who you are, or what your connection to that demon is, but you need to move…Now!" She shouted at him as Ira narrowed his eyes at Faythe. "That demon needs to answer for all her sins that she's committed against humans and I'm going to make sure she answers to every one of them…Personally." Her eyes fell back down on to a smirking Ziva, who just tilted her head at her.
"No! She's not a demon, she's just sick or something, there's got to be something we can do for her!" Ira argued back. He shook his head defiantly as he brought his back up to meet Faythe's. "I'm not moving, I'm not going to let you hurt her anymore." Ira stated.
"Kid, she's not lying!" Yure yelled from behind her. "She's dangerous! You need to get out of the way!" Yure instructed.
"No! I'm not moving!" Ira screamed at her.
Gritting her teeth, Nyx frustrated expression towards Ira was obviously noticeable." Unbelievable."
"Idiot…" Ekho added on in a deadpanned voice.
"I'm only going to tell you one more time. "Faythe growled lightly. "Move out the way, or I'm going to make you move." She hissed as Ira continued to defy her.
"I already told you." His voice as serious as hers. "I'm not moving."
Showing her teeth, Faythe began to walk towards Ira to remove him from the equation, but Ziva stood up behind him, her hand placed firmly on his left shoulder as she leaned forward and whispered into his ear. "It's ok Ira, I'm all better now." She voiced slipped smoothly through one ear and out the other. "And now… Let me thank you for that." Suddenly Ira's eyes shot up in utter shock as Ziva's clawed hand burst through Ira's chest."
Ira's voice was caught in his lungs as his eyes slowly glanced over to Ziva, who was still smirking at him. "I'm sorry, but I just need you to do this one last thing for me." She spoke in a soft voice as Ira's shocked expression was stuck on his face.
"Oh no…" Yure quickly grabbed her sword.
"Dammit." Faythe cursed as she charged towards the two.
"Not good…" Nyx quickly readied her pistol, aiming it the best way she could so she wouldn't hit Ira as a slight hiss could be heard coming from Ekho's mouth.
Ziva kept her eyes on Ira's dying body as the color in his eyes began to fade. The life that once invaded his body was slowly slipping. Using her other hand, she gently caressed his right cheek. "Die for me." With that she jerked her hand from his stomach and quickly tossed him into the incoming Faythe, who caught Ira's body as bashed into her with force.
"See you later little angels." Ziva waved at them as she attempted to make her escape.
"You're not going anywhere!" Nyx yelled as she began to fire off at Ziva, who dodged them with ease, and she hopped over debris and discarded cars and made her way towards an opening in the parking garage.
She quickly placed her feet on a nearby ledge and turned back around to look at the faces of her dear beloved opponents, blowing a kiss at them as she slowly leaned off the edge. "See ya around." She winked as she placed her hand on the building before, she leaped off it, sending a large vibration through it.
The girls quickly panicked as the parking deck began to shake violently as the building began to crumble all around them.
"This isn't good. It's collapsing!" Nyx screamed. "We got to get out of here!" She added as she turned around to run, but a large boulder came crashing down, catching Nyx in the process.
"NYX!" Yure shouted as she quickly over to help her, but the ceiling completely collapsed on to Yure as she tried to reach for Nyx. Gritting her teeth in desperation Ekho tried to blast away some of the debris, as she turned her head towards Faythe, who was carrying Ira bridal style.
"Ekho, over here!" She screamed, but as soon as Ekho ran in her direction, steel beams and cement fell on top of her as well. "EKHO!!!" Faythe screamed in fear as three of her friends were buried completely under rubble.
Turning her eyes away from the seen, she looked down at the dying Ira in her arms. "This is…all your fault" She growled as she too fell victim from the incoming debris that resulted in the building completely collapsing.
