Chapter 8 - A Battle Cry
The battle would take place in a wider space, not the small one training room. So they went outside the war ship, standing on a dusty expanse far enough from the base. Blackclaw claimed that it was the best for them if they didn't want to ruin the ship so that to be angered by the Lord. Wherever the battle would occur then Forbidden still regretted for it. She realized how much her little plan had gone so far. It was no way to turn back now. If Forbidden told to him that she didn't want to take this serious fight anymore, she couldn't dare to imagine how things would happen next.
She backed some steps, far enough from Blackclaw, unconsciously averted her optics from him and he barely had time to notice that act. The act would be shown up when Forbidden was nervous of something which related to someone then she couldn't look straight at that one. It was supposed to be one of her weakness and somehow she has known already but controlling it completely was quite beyond her ability, particularly with Blackclaw was harder to do it.
"What are you having in your mind right now, my leader? Will you want to quit? I hope not, because things have just got more interesting." Blackclaw gave her provoking attitude from distance.
She smiled and said nothing. This wasn't the first time they had a fight, but this was the first time they took it for a sort of vital importance.
"The rules are..."
"Forget it, you'll break those anyway." Forbidden sluggishly interrupted.
"It'll be finished till someone shall die."
"Huh, wh..." Forbidden's optics filled in surprise and not let her finish off the statement, Blackclaw sprinted toward as he changed his both arms into sharp purple blades. Just in two seconds, his black face appeared front of hers. He slid fast the blade across. Forbidden's overcoat - exactly it's formed by billion micro sheet of squares which were the material that Cybertronian's body was made from - reflected immediately. As Forbidden jumped backward, part of the overcoat was split off and created into a metal strip to cover her body as a kind of shield.
Blackclaw gifted her a few more unhesitatingly dangerous cuts what made her only known to pace back than anything else.
"What's wrong? You aren't as tough as before." Blackclaw mocked at Forbidden as he attacked her nonstop.
"Don't be so humble. It seems that you're getting better during my vacation." She sent back to him a hasty snigger, then coming a near shot from the small cannon on his shoulder.
This was how Blackclaw did, he made Forbidden focus on his slits of the blades while activated secretly his cannon and blasted it. The shot hit her visor-mask immediately to blow up Forbidden away. She lost her foot and rolled through the ground. Forbidden gnashed her teeth, propped one hand and skidded backward in a quite long distance until she got her steady balance again, the dust flew up and covered her body.
<<He shot me right in my face! Ok, that is!>> She pressed fingers over the rift on her visor-mask. As a miracle, the rift was gone and the visor-mask was as new as it must be.
Forbidden leaned back to prepare a push of speed and then sprang forward. At a distance of about nine feet away, she jumped up highly. It looked like she was hanging in mid air at the moment while Blackclaw still played around with his surprise. She raised both arms and folded slightly them behind, covering sides of the helmet as she created a couple of swords then tumbled down aiming straight to Blackclaw.
Like a rotating gear. Sharp and deadly.
Rending the space with its madness. To block the attack from above, Blackclaw crossed the blades across, over his helm. A clashing sound of weapons waved through the air when their blades met each other. The ground where Blackclaw was standing started to fissure and finally collapsed under their pressure.
He growled and managed to gather all his strength to push Forbidden away. She would have been thrown behind for almost thousand meters if a big block of stone hadn't greeted her back first. The crash gouged the stone into fragments, she lay on these fragments and heard Blackclaw whistling in triumph. Dust flew up again. She released a sigh and seemed to be tired of this fight.
When Blackclaw walked nearby, from the mist of dust she lunged with her metal tonfas, which had just been created by all sheet of squares from the couple of swords before. With quick reflection and experience of every battles with Forbidden, he easily blocked one of her tonfa, but it wasn't enough.
Immediately, she gave Blackclaw a punch from the other tonfa coming from below after she had made her way through his big arms. The punch hit Blackclaw's chin made his head drastically springing up and the whole body stepped back unsteadily.
"Now, it's really interesting." Blackclaw looked down at her. The crimson optics flared of excitement. Obviously just only him was the one who could enjoy this event.
What coming next was sparkling flashes with the sounds of metallic rubs. Attacking on other to break the defense. Defending from other and dodge the attack.
Blackclaw and Forbidden had been sticking together for almost half of an hour. Then at last, they separated. Blackclaw stood still, Forbidden had been kicked to fly straight with dust and pain as companions on each stage. Breaking through mass of rocks and through the space to land on an energon mine near the ship. Causing a peal of noise attracting a lot of attentions.
Blackclaw transformed into his vehicle mode. A black Cybertron's ancient jet with dark-purple lines. He speeded up and launched ahead. When it was near the mine, he came back with his Cybertronian form then strode. Suddenly, Blackclaw stopped as he caught sight of a group of high-ranking Decepticons, watched Megatron using his arms to block Soundwave and Starscream's way, to prevent them from interfering the fight. His intention was clearly that he want to let Blackclaw go and be free to kill his once trustful Forbidden. Thus, he smirked and shouted to Forbidden being in somewhere of the mine.
Blackclaw walked slowly toward while shouting. At the same time, these words came from outside to inside. Loud and clear. Covering Forbidden who was almost in stasis.
"Even your Lord is now abandoning you."
As he spoke the first statement, a current of electro rushed through her metal bone.
"It seems that he won't need you anymore, my leader."
As he spoke the second statement, a cold of despair invaded her body.
"Lord's leaving me to decide your death. And yes, you'll absolutely be died under my blade. You know why? Because of your weakness. Your uselessness. Your cowardice..."
As the rest statements, a shadow of darkness gradually swallowed her blue-sky optics by each word.
Forbidden sensed her own fears. Fear to be abandoned. Fear to be alone. Fear to die. She grabbed a fragment of a raw energon crystal. Tightly. Yet she sensed something else. The scream of a sleepy monster which had been hungry for release and freedom in order to kill, to destroy and... to eat.
