Chapter 44 - Chapter44: Attack on Comet city, part two

"So your not so incompetent after all" Dowto swiftly turned around to see that Mirai was still left struggling.

Meanwhile at the south west corner of Comet city, two Rinocks had began their assault upon the city.

One made of cream coloured stone, while also having charcoal grey eyes.

While he was wearing no clothing, he did have two meteorite gauntlets with slits throughout the forearms.

And as for the other Rinock, she was born with no rocks at all and as such her flesh is completely visible.

Her monster like appearance granted her the name Lilith.

Although very few people in recent years have seen the monster's true appearance, as she hides all parts of her body in a full black suit.

"You know I killed twenty people upon the creation of my technique right kid, so tell me what makes you think that you can stand up to the vanishing ghost?" Solid stared upon a small Rinock boy wielding a flimsy sword in protection of his family.

The boy gave no answer as he ran towards certain death.

And as he swung his sword it cut through the air, hitting nothing.

"But how?, he was just there, the boy thought to himself" Solid mocked as he appeared behind the boy, his fist ready to strike.

But without warning a sword pierced through Solid's fist and forced him to the meteorite ground.

But as Solid's body hit the ground he vanished.

"It's such a shame you don't pay attention to what happens on Saturn's rings" Solid appeared once again, but this time he appeared exactly where the boy was just standing.

And as for the boy, his remains were scattered across the metallic silver city.

A young man appeared, a sword in hand and a dagger resting upon his thigh.

His hair almost invisible, his eyes grey and his skin beige leaving for quite the boring appearance.

Although his eyes were like scopes, allowing him to zoom in and focus on targets.

His name Sision.

Sision appeared within range of the monstrous Rinock, swinging both his dagger and sword in opposite directions.

Pincering Solid in the middle of the approaching blades.

Sure of hitting his target Sision relaxed his guard, but once again Solid vanished like a ghost.

And as the shock of failure forced itself upon Sision, Solid appeared just a few seconds away.

Smashing his gauntlet against Sision's left eye, destroying half of Sision's vision.

"I have no idea who you are but I'm guessing those eyes of yours are what makes you special, such a shame u'll never guess my technique" Solid went into a full birage of hits.

Smashing his fists again and again into Sision's face, breaking Sision's right eye.

But not just his vision, no Solid completely destroyed every piece of Sision's face, disfiguring him to an unrecognisable standard.

Sision pulled his chains back, hoping to impale his opponent.

But the ghost vanished, allowing for Sision to stab himself with his own blades.

And as Sision coughed up blood Solid smashed his fist against Sision's skull, killing him in one final blow.

"Hopefully some of you prove a challenge..., well I guess there's always Oso to entertain me" and with that over with, Solid began to head towards the smoke covered battlefield ahead of him.

Meanwhile in the dome of smoke...

The meteorite below the warriors' feet was coated in ice.

Whilst the air in which they breathed was swarmed in dense smoke.

And suddenly the smoke vanished.

No!, it turned into needles so thin they are barely noticeable by the naked eye.

All shooting in random directions, like darts.

The night cloaked assassin appeared behind her opponent.

Using her as a meat shield Lilith prevented all harm..., to herself at least.

But just at the exact second the needles pierced the blessed child the ice that once coated the ground began to rise up.

"I guess beauty doesn't give you skills, why would you just throw away your ice like that?" Lilith bared her meteorite dagger, piercing Kori's gut.

"Now fall" Kori whispered, seeming to be clinging to hope.

Which was followed by the descent of all the ice that rose up into space a few seconds ago.

Smoke devoured Lilith's body allowing her to escape almost certain death.

And as the ice crashed down to the ground, Kori moulded it all into a dome.

A dome that surrounded all of her body, all except the front.

"So you really were born with everything" needles exploded from the smoke covering Lilith's body.

And as the needles smashed into the dome of ice, Kori began to speak.

"I guess from appearance it could look that way, but i worked hard to be who i am today" Kori activated yet another technique.

Ice shot out in front of Kori's feet, coating the land before her.

"Technique activation: creeping chill" Kori whispered, as ice ran up Lilith's legs.

"It is all over now..., I have no idea who you are but if your that jealous of my gifts then maybe you should look at your own gifts and then you will see how powerful you could truly be" Kori ran her fingers across Lilith's frozen throat.

"Technique activation: state conversion: gas" Solid called out before vanishing into thin air.

Appearing beside both his ally and opponent, Solid smashed his fist upon Kori's face.

And again and again each one pushing Kori further and further away.

Before one final hit knocked Kori off her feet and flying into the meteorite city.

And as Kori was sent flying, the the ice that surrounded Lilith's body was shattered by a shockwave.

Smoke spread out from the collapsed buildings, and as Kori appeared ice soon followed.

"What happened to Sision?" Kori called out as ice appeared from her palms.

"Oh him..., yeah he's dead now" Solid claimed as held Lilith back.

"Create some smoke now, I don't think this'll be an easy fight and right now were here to weaken them not ourselves" Solid whispered.

And just as asked Lilith created a sphere of smoke, allowing for both of them to escape.

"I better get to the king's side" Kori thought to herself, as she smashed all of the ice that coated the streets.
