Chapter 4 - A broken tournamet

Khuno leaves the arena to meet up with the other NewGods. "I believe this makes us the winners" He said with a bored voice. unfortunately it doesn't seem like Mr. Pound see it that way. "Winners! Winners of what! you destroyed my tournament!" Pound is stomping and yelling in anger. The new gods seem completely uncaring. the largest did try calming him down though. now, now. its not their fault the rest were cowards. just give us what you owe".

Mr. pound takes a step back and orders some men in suits along the wall to toss them out. Khuno looking at the situation takes a big sigh and asks "take care of this Vulcan. Kali when you got time, get some information." the large man and the black haired woman both nod.

From Vulcan's chest his skin begin to change from the dark tanned color into a metallic grey. it moves along his body until his body is completely metallic. Vulcan takes a step forward the weight of his steps leaving cracks in the floor. The men in suits pull out weapons, but their attack is immediately met with Vulcan throwing a punch that create a giant shockwave knocking them back.

one mans hand begin to drip with a warm liquid that burn trough the floor. he punches Vulcan in the chest which allows the liquid to spread across his body. Vulcan with a twisted smile lifts both arms and slam his head from both side's breaking his skull as if it was nothing. Vulcan continues his slaughter Throwing the men stomping and slamming them into the walls.

"and you said I took it too far" Helios comments with Khuno shrugging. "we had orders for that. we don't for this situation." as they talk some men had gotten behind them believing that they were distracted and wide open, but as they jump at Helios and khuno they are grabbed by the mouth allowing Helios to blow a hole straight trough the guys skull and Khuno to stab an icicle trough the other. Helios drops the body and puts his right hand above the left side of his chest before doing a throwing motion upwards. "may your spirit rest".

Khuno turns back to Vulcan who is still busy "I thought you said I could trust you". Vulcan Laughs "My bad" he says jokingly. Pound is shaking watching his men be slaughtered like they were nothing. tossed and broken like they were some toys and they were over active children. I need to get out of here he thought, but a thought that was cut short as something hits him in the neck.

A tiny needle. before he can truly react he begin to have muscle spasms and his breaths cut short. collapsing unto his knees the spasms had stopped but his breathing had not become steady yet. he looks up to see Kali sitting down in front of him looking like a regular innocent girl. "where is the prize" her voice is quite almost like a whisper. her face carries on it a small friendly smile which just unnerved Pound further. "do you have any idea who I am? I am Maxwell Pound. what will happen if I come to harm". As the sentence leave his mouth one of the suited men fly past his head and into the wall behind him leaving cracks. "I think the now is more important" she says with a mischievous smile.

Pound finally cracks " there is a steel suitcase in the backroom". Kali's smile grows bigger as she thanks Pound who begin to have muscle spasms once more. his body convulsing on the ground as his heart too begin beating faster and faster. the pains grow larger until they just seem to stop as Pound body lies still upon the ground.

Flora with Leo over the shoulder look over the halls that is now littered with bodies. Her breathing gets heavy and for a second instead of seeing the halls sees a small room covered in blood before returning to reality with a scream. "Haven't you done enough!" the scream seem to be ignored by them. With a suitcase in hand Helios walks past Helios smoke seeping in from where he came. "I got it!".

the NewGods taken what they need takes their leave, but as they do Flora screams at them once more. "Who do you think you are!?" Khuno finally acknowledging that she is there gives her an answer.

"The new gods of this world"

Flora and Leo now alone in the body ridden halls. The Max tournament that was supposed to be a big event, but instead it became a tragedy costing many lives including that of Flora's friend Pyre, And while Leo might have come out of the experience alive he did not leave untouched as he himself will never walk again. They were all powerless towards the new gods of this world.
