Within the Flames


(After some moments, a horrendous roar could be heard in the hills. The Raizu came crashing down in flames and Isabella begins to fall. At medium height, a Rhanioid catches her in its back.)

Joss: Bahamut?!

(Bulwark goes into flight mode " Apollo" and takes out the energy whips.)

Bulwark: I have an idea Arya... But it's a stupid idea.

(The normal Raizu opened his wings and regained altitude. Bahamut let out an ominous roar and the Raizu screeches in return.)

Joss: That bastard! How did he find us?

(Bahamut shoots various fireballs and pushes the Raizu away. He lands near Joss.)

Joss: Hey there big guys!

(He touches its face and puts his forehead against the beast.)

Joss: Thanks for rescuing her. Isabella, you can come down.

(She is gripping tightly the neck of Bahamut.)

Joss: Isabella...let go. You are in ground.

(She looks down and quickly falls.)

Isabella: I will never again fly!!!

(Joss laughs.)

Joss: Flying is the best! You'll get used to it. Now that this guy is here, it will be easy to take down those 2 fuckers up there. What do you say, eh?

(Bahamut roars. The deviant looks at his partner and roars in return. The clouds begin to turn darker and darker until rain begins to fall.)

Arya: Be careful...

Bulwark: Rainstorm huh

T25: Increases electrical damage, sir. Resistance will be reduced by a 30%.

Bulwark: We can take it.

(Bulwark burst into the air at 70% boost and immediately lassos the right wing at the joint and lassos the left leg and puts in 90% thruster to pull the Raizu closer to the ground.)

Bulwark in his mind: If I take a direct hit... My shield is going to go down fast.

(The shield amplifies)

Bulwark: Arya!! ... Go at your strongest, he's a big one, aim for the heart.

(He preps for any impact)

(Arya rushes with her big mallet, ready to make a giant impact. The Raizu roars and begins to charge himself even more. Thunderbolts rain down in its location. Arya jumps to hit the creature but as soon as the deviant hits the floor, it creates a magnetic force, pushing Bulwark and Arya away. Meanwhile, Joss mounts Bahamut and rides to where the normal Raizu is. Bahamut begins to shoot fireballs while the Raizu shoots its thunderbolts. Both explode in contact.)

Joss: We need to keep herding him towards Isabella. Fly high boy!

(Bahamut flies up above the clouds, then dive bombs at the direction of the Raizu. Joss grips the creature's neck. The Raizu keeps shooting shoots of thunder from his tail. Bahamut and Joss make maneuver moves to evade. Once near, Joss jumps and cuts part of the wing, sending the Raizu to the ground. The creature cries.)

Isabella: Now you can fly away. You are mine.

(Isabella readies her arrows from her quiver and begins to walk, shooting continuous arrows at the Raizu. She hits the other wing, ensuring it will not fly away, then continues with the eyes. The creature cries and let out various thunder attacks but misses every one. She keeps walking and shooting until the beast stops moving. She sighs and falls to her knees. Joss follows her and Bahamut comes to the ground.)

Joss: Remember not angering you.

Isabella: Yeah right. We must help Bulwark and Arya. That Deviant will be a pain in the ass.

(He helps Isabella getting up.)

Isabella: We must rush at them!

(Bulwark gets up staggered. The electricity courses through the armor but he fights against the pain. He stares straight at the eyes of the fallen beast and then he sees Arya knocked down.)

Bulwark: You... And I.... Right now, fucker.

(He turns into the attack mode. T25 sends out a warning about armor integrity is compromised.)

Bulwark: BUT WE CAN FIGHT!!

(He powers up his speed, strength and reflex module to max. One arm makes an energy sword similar to the sword Arya has but lighter and deadlier. He goes into attack position and then quickly uses the grappling hooks to pull himself in towards the beast. Once close, the beast goes to strike with its tail and Bulwark dodges underneath it striking just under the tail and then swiping behind the left leg. The rain falls heavier and the electricity much more ferrous. The Deviant turns around to strike him with its sharp horn and Bulwark clashes with the beast. They see eye to eye as the electricity courses through the energy sword. The beast backs off and fires multiple bolts at Bulwark around him. The blade takes 2 shots while he took 2 shots to the body. He kneels down staggered.)

Bulwark: Shiiit... Suit integrity is at 30%. Another few shots and it's a shutdown...

(The beast sees him weak and vulnerable so it tries to take flight and Bulwark quickly reacts by sending a few large energy blast, one hits the body that does some heavy damage but wouldn't have been enough to keep it down. Two shots hit its wings, one cut right through the left joint of the wing making it fall to the floor; the other shot pierced the right wing making a huge hole.)

Bulwark: Try flying now you asshole. ARYA!! All yours sweetheart!! Make him regret it!!

(Arya grabs her hammer, ready to finish this up. Lacie talks directly to Joss.)

Lacie: Careful, warning! High voltage gathering on one point. Energy converting into plasma ray. Analyzing...Analyzing...updating suit...installing plasma sword, plasma energy...plasma suit...

Joss: What the fuck is that?!

(He looks at the creature and how his belly became to inflate in a red color. The monster aims at Arya.)

Joss: Shit! Bahamut, full speed!

(Bahamut dashes towards Arya and threw Joss with its tail. He grabs her just in time, evading the plasma ray. The creature staggers and walks slowly, without energy to his partner's corpse. It lays beside it, the rain stops for a moment. With its last force, it licks the dead body's face and collapses. The blue color fades away leaving a gray color and 2 dead corpses.)
