trans_9 | You will never win! [ITA]

"And so the crew of the Transmigration Nine has DOMINATED the tournament, coming at last to the semifinals, where four brave souls now strive to see which of them is the best!" the leg-mustached orb announced to the camera cloud! It paused, then continued in a more witty tone, "Of course, there are no rules against selling your soul for the power to advance, so maybe I'm being a little too charitable, huh?"

Pause for laughter, and...

"Victory and the prize seems assured for these warriors... or DOES it?" Pause for gasp. "We need some motivation for the best fights to come out! We can't let them go easy on each other! So from here on out..." Aaaand pause for dramatic effect...

"The loser will surrender ALL their powers to the winner! That's right! Lose this round and walk away a boring, ordinary human being, dragon, or whatever that purple guys is! This is for ALL the marbles, kids!"

The program cut to commercial, as the MC turned to the eliminated crew members. "It's not true, by the way, but don't tell your friends that. Your electric-man friend especially seems to have way too many scruples for him to go all-out without motivation. Let them think the stakes are high. It's good publicity."

Cole didn't want to give her any more electricity, so, rather than charging some of his electricity into it, he gripped the Amp like a baseball bat and, as she lunged, swung at her.

Did he make a home run?

CLANG!

Not so much. Instead Ruffnut blocked it with her buckler and went under to try and deliver a jab low and between his legs.

She was never above fighting dirty.

Huh.

Over the last few months, Cole had been caught in the epicenter of a bomb, shot at, thrown back by grenades, blasted by energy attacks, hit by speeding trains occasionally, nearly electrocuted himself in water, been exploded by rockets, smashed by Corrupted, and all sorts of damage that no normal human should ever have to be hit by.

And yet, oddly enough, in all that time, he had not been reminded what it was like to be hit in the crotch.

"Ouch.", Cole said in a tiny voice that was not his own.

He's off-guard, you want to finish him Ruffnut? Now's your chance.

(OOC: And this could be a feasible way for Cole to have gotten his ass kicked by a little girl, right?)

((OOC: Well calling her a "Little Girl" doesn't really do her justice but it'll do.))

Ruffnut didn't hold back even a second. A punishing left hook followed by a right. Her gauntlets had been specially designed for grappling and punching so the extra plating on the knuckles would leave solid strikes to either side of his face.

Long finger dug into the sides of his head mercilessly as she brought his head up then down hard swinging one of her pointy knees up to catch him in the chin with a mighty roar.

Then the final move. wrenching his weapon free she swung like a Major League Slugger trying to destroy the baseball. Sweat flew from her brow and a look of sadistic glee crackled in her eyes.

And Cole went down from the punches and the knee.

Here he'd gotten far enough to have beaten some crazy bitch with a sword and some mage guy... And now he was about to get beaten by a teenage girl (viking teenage girl, in his defense).

Well, that was something Zeke was probably never going to let Cole live down if he got awakened.

You will never win! [ITA]
