It was now certain, it was a break in.
The communications team pressed a button that sounded the alarms. The alarm was sent throughout the entire prison including the higher floors containing prisoners.
"Code Red, Code Red, a break in has occurred all guards get ready and wait for further instructions." (Alarm)
The guards on every part of the wall readied their guns for an attack. The guards on the front wall near the bridge to the mainland stood there looking out towards the sea for these supposed attackers. One of the guards commented on the incident and suspected it was a false call since no one could or even dared to break into Tartarus. This naive guard gave confidence to his fellow guards but all this confidence would cause their end.
They laughed and became unaware of the impending doom approaching them. One guard even stated that they could even handle the problem by themself but was instantly proven false when a fist slammed into their right cheek, completely destroying all the bones in their face. The mere strength of the punch flung the guard all the way to the other side of the wall.
The other guards looked as the same guard they were laughing with about how strong they were was annihilated with one punch. All of them were shocked but had no time to react because surely they were next. They spun towards this attacker and fired their weapons that sent a high powered laser beam that could easily burn through skin.
Multiple beams were sent at the attacker nevertheless he dodged them like it was child's play. The attacker laughed before shouting out:
"This is the strength of the best prison, PATHETIC" (Battle Freak)
Battle Freak crouched down as they went to fire another laser beam, preparing for a jump. The guard's hands pressed down on the trigger and another barrage of beams were sent at him. Just before the beams hit him he vanished, leaving only a faint afterimage behind. The guards could feel a looming shadow not even a second after Battle Freak vanished. They looked up at the villain and couldn't react. With one punch they all died leaving blood scattered everywhere.
Battle freak looked down at the mutilated corpse with a psychotic look on his face. He quickly composed himself and reported what happened to Legion. Now the second part of the plan was completed so it was time for Legion to begin his move.
Nano shards in the shape of an orb burst out the water, making its way directly to the prison. The top of the orb opened up revealing Legion and Red Rum casually standing inside as they looked at the fortified prison. The Nano Shards from atop the orb fused with the ones below which increased its size exponentially.
"Once we enter the prison you have to guard me from attacks. I am gonna need to be fully focused to depower the quirk dampeners." (Legions)
Red Rum simply nodded before they were rudely interrupted by a large high powered laser beam. The beam barely missed the two but tore bits of the nano shards off from the aerial device (idk what to call it). Legion turned his attention to the prison once more and saw another beam coming right at them.
Legion raised his hand and clenched it, sending a large nano spear directly at the beam. It broke right through the middle of the beam separating the beam into two parts making the attack miss once more. As it advanced it slowly lost parts but in the end it made it to the source of the beam and stopped it.
Due to the sudden stop, the weapon firing the beam exploded causing damage to other weapons near it. Like a chain reaction or what I like to call it, the domino effect, the destruction of one of these weapons caused the overload of all others of its kind in the area.
Legion placed his hand back down after destroying the weapons
and watched as the area burnt due to the explosion.
"Incompetent." (Legion)
Now that the first defences were destroyed the group could now enter the complex to continue with the raid.
Back at the communications team centre all of the members became in a state of panic after the destruction of the main line weapons. A man with several badges on his uniform entered the room and began asking about what was going on. One of the guards in the communications team began telling the man about the situation and how villains were advancing inside the prison.
The man scoffed and said: "Is this what you are afraid of, some amateur villains."
The guard gulped and replied while stammering.
"Well sir, we've identified one of the attackers and I don't think you're gonna like this." (Communications team guard)
The man told the guard to spit it out even though the guard was hesitant.
"It, it is one of the highest villains on the wanted list, Battle freak."(Guard)
The man's heart skipped a beat at the mention of that name. He tumbled onto the floor and kept taking short breaths frightening some of the guards. The security guarding the communication room rushed to the man's side trying to assist him in this terrified state.
Though inside was in panic, outside was like hell itself. Guards were being murdered from left to right by Battle freak as he paved the way for Legion's entrance.
After a few minutes of gliding on the nano shard platform Legion and Red Rum made it onto the prison's floors. The two came off the platform and Legion used his quirk to condense the nano shards before making them into a gauntlet on his left hand. Side by side they walked forward to the entrance of the inside of the prison but were stopped by 2 heroes. One wore an orange spandex suit covered in augments, the hero also garnished a giant axe while the other wore a similar outfit but instead of orange it was night black and it sparkled like stars. The hero also had two black katanas by their side.
"You won't be getting into there, villain!" (Hero)
Legion looked at the two as they introduced themself.
"I am the light that shines within the dark, Brithtburn."
"I am the one that protects others from the shadow, Moonlight"
"And we will stop you!"
The hero Moonlight unsheathed his katanas and Brightburn clenched his axe. These two were known as the knights of night and day, the last line of defence at the gate.
Legion sighed and instructed Red Rum to take on Moonlight while he handled Brightburn. Red Rum nodded before rushing Moonlight. As she took off she used her quirk to create a blood katana with her own blood and hardened it as it was formed.
Moonlight quickly reacted to this attack and used his katanas to block her own. Brightburn turned around and went to chop Red Rum with his axe but was stopped by a large fist made out of nano shards. Brightburn was slammed into the large metal entrance but quickly recovered from the attack. Brightburn got up and raised his axe up high before pointing it straight at Legion.
A strong fireball flung towards Legion but he quickly intercepted the attack by creating a wall of shards and pushing it forward like a wave. The wave of nano shards collided with the fireball sending flares into the air.
The intense heat emanating from the fireball slowly tore through the wave of nano shards giving Legion a bit of trouble. Legion flicked his left hand and bated the fire ball to the left. The fireball hit a sniper tower and exploded on impact completely eviscerating the tower.
Brightburn was slightly shocked that Legion had stopped his attack, for it was an attack that thousands of villains had lost to. Brightburn quickly composed himself and burst forward holding his axe in his right hand. Brightburn went to slice Legions stomach but he swiped his right hand and sent a wave of nano shards to stop the attack. The shards tightened around the axe trapping it. Brightburn kept tugging trying to get the axe out but to no avail.
Brightburn ignited the axe and tugged it out of the shards before spinning around in a 360 degrees angle and slicing the wave in half. In the middle of the sliced nano shard wave Bright burn saw the dark, gloomy eyes of Legion. Just as his gaze touched Legion a singular shard flew towards his head.
While Brightburn was seemingly about to be killed, Moonlight was also struggling against the villain Red Rum. He was constantly being bombarded by blood attacks and received substantial damage but nevertheless he continued pushing onwards. Moonlight spun the katana in his right hand and sliced the ground below them in a horizontal direction which sent shadow-like spikes at the villain. Red Rum leapt back, avoiding the attack.
After dodging the spikes Red Rum charged forth and fired a tiny blood needle from the tip of the katana in her right hand. Moonlight wasn't ready for the attack and was cut on the cheek. He looked at his blood as it gushed out his cheek and panned back to Red Rum. Within the second he had turned away she closed the gap between them and prepared to strike his heart. Moonlight eyes went wild and to counter this approach shadow tendrils burst out his stomach, pushing the villain back.
"I almost got hit there but i won't let that happen again"
Red Rum scoffed and went to attack once more with more bloodlust.
Back inside the prison the communications team were trying to help the heroes fight against the threat but had no success, it seemed that all main line weapons were destroyed by Battle Freak earlier on. Panic ensued as they watched the villains and heroes both have the upper hand for a while before losing it once again. The heroes were taking substantial damage even with their skills and had to resort to a final ditch attempt.
Brightburn pressed the comm in his left ear and began talking to his partner.
"I can't hold up for longer and you" (Brightburn)
"Same here, these villains are strong"
Brightburn took a deep breath and told his partner that they needed to do it. Moonlight agreed and both got in a stern fighting stance. They looked straight at the villains and yelled out:
``Ultimate Move``
``Hellspire``
``Abyssal devastation``
Both heroes charged at their respective villains while clenching their weapons. Large amounts of fire burst from Brightburn's body and also engulfed his axe. He charged towards Legion leaving a trail of fire behind him.
Large amounts of darkness covered Moonlight's body similar to his partner and his blades became as dark as his shadows. He put the katanas in a X position and used his right leg to boost himself forward. The darkness tore the metal ground below him after boosting forward.
They both were about to slice their opponents in half to end this once and for all but it wouldn't go as expected. Legion looked Brightburn dead in the eye and said:
``Enough``
A single shard went for Brightburn's chest and turned into a large cluster of shards that burst through his entire chest area and went right out his back. His body shivered and his eyes panned down to look at his impaled chest. He saw his blood slowly running out his body, it was like a continuous flow of water. Was this the end and if this was the end who would stop the villains, surely his partner would.
Sadly his partner had suffered a similar fate. Multiple blood spikes pierced through his vital organs and left his body in a state of paralysis. Blood poured out of his eyes and in a couple of seconds he had finally processed what had just happened.
Red Rum looked at the shivering body and turned the spikes into a liquid state making Moonlight fall to the ground in a near lifeless state. His hand slowly extended and on the other side of the prison his partner did the same. Like twins they thought the same thing in their last moments:
``I had a good run``
Their eyes slowly shut and their last breath was taken. The supposed last form of protection in the prison were defeated and the villains could finaly complete the task that they came to do.
Red Rum appeared beside Legion, soaked in blood after killing Moonlight. ``Are you ready`` said Legion while he looked at the large metal door blocking them from the inside of the prison. She slightly nodded and pair walked forward ready for what was to come next.
