Cut Above The Rest
Chapter 47: Three's A Crowd: The fight begins
Previous Chapter Next Chapter“Celia? Roden who is this..” Shard took a look into Celia’s eyes has shivered. “...creepy, creepy kid?”
Roden sighed and flipped the safety off of his gun. “She's a villain from a forgotten tale, with the ability to morph reality as she sees fit.” He shook his head and pointed his gun at Celia, only for Shard to stop him from pulling the trigger.
“But she's just a little girl, how can she be that dangerous? She probably doesn't onto how I to use her powers or whatever.”
”I have no age.” Celia Spile, earning everyone's attention. ”I don't even have a home or an identity, Celia was the name given to me by some human I met awhile back that actually showed some level of care towards me.”
“Great...villainous speech about the creepy person's backstory, just what we need.” Shard commented sarcastically, receiving a smack on the back of the head from Treble who turned his attention to the creepy girl before them.
“Continue…” Treble said dryly.
”As I was saying, there was never a place fir me in this multiverse, so I-”
*BLAM!!!*
Celia flew backwards and hit the back of her head against the ground, a large hole on her forehead. Treble looked to Shard who then looked to Roden, his held tightly and the front of the gun seeping a small amount of smoke. “Dick move.” Treble commented while wiping some blood if of his glasses.
“I have to agree. Who interrupts a villain during their speech?” Shard demanded from Roden who turned his head and frowned.
“An actually smart hero. She was right there, she wasn't moving nor was she using any of her powers to absorbing some weird artefact that will make her powerful. She was just standing there with obvious sinister intentions, and she was completely open. How could I not take that chance?” Roden pointed out with slight annoyance.
“...fair point. But still, did you have to kill her?” Shard asked as he watched Treble begin to poke the body with a stick with curiosity.
“Oh she's not dead, she just wants you to think that so you'll turn away and she can stab you in the back, both figuratively…” To prove his point Roden turned his back to Celia and folded his arms, but stepped to the side before a throwing knife could get him in the back. “...and very literally.”
Treble just looked to the recovering Celia with confusion, having not seen her move or even be capable of moving for that matter. ’Why do I always have to deal with creeps like this?’ Treble took a few steps backwards while Celia's head wound disappeared.
”Was that really called for?”
“Considering that you essentially plan on killing us and everyone else we know and love, I'm pretty sure that you had that coming.” Roden stated a she readied his gun again, only for Treble to get in the way and block Rodens view of the girl. “Treble, move out of the way, that isn't a little girl. She's a dangerous blabbering psychopath hell bent on destroying everything.”
Treble just looked confused before he was sent flying into one of the trees, hitting his back hard against the glass bark. Roden and Shard both winced as the sound of the impact echoed out. Treble peeled himself off of the tree and glared at the little girl/demonic spirit.
Celia just laughed and began to float off of the ground, glitches in reality appearing around her as pixels began to form in the air around her. She snapped her fingers and a hand made out of the stone below the gravel grew out of the ground and grabbed Shard by the leg. Before it could begin to drag him under he pulled out his orange and black katana and sliced the hand clean off.
“Ok, that's new!” Shard spun his sword in his hand for a moment while Roden shot a hand that had grabbed onto him, reloading his gun while standing beside Shard who had stopped spinning and took a defensive stance.
Treble mumbled a few things before walking up to the group of heroes while rubbing his back. He reached into his pockets and grabbed his brass knuckles before slipping them on and bashing them together and taking a fighting stance.
”So this is what I have to fight now? A schizophrenic twenty year old, a recolour gender swap of Vinyl and, of course, a red and orange OC that has superhuman abilities. Honestly you'd have been able to actually frighten me if you had brought someone worth while, like the avengers.”
“Wrong franchise.” Roden quipped before planting another bullet in her face. She recovered faster than the last time and smirked.
”Alright, I think we've made enough references and people are probably bored at this point, so let's get down to business!” As she yelled halfway through her sentence she waved her hand over Roden and blew him away with a small wave of pixels.
Before she could continue her attack Treble ran forward and hit Celia up the jaw with his brass knuckle, causing her to stagger. While he did feel uncomfortable fighting so,wine who looked like a little girl, he kept reminding himself of what she really was.
Celia vanished and appeared behind him, she snapped her fingers and multiple arms grew out of the ground and head him in place. ”Sorry Treble, you're a really nice guy but I can't keep this up if you keep hitting me.” She spoke with sarcasm before quickly turning around and nailing Shard in the gut with a gauntlet she had summoned.
She was about to grab Shards blade but Treble had managed to break out of the hands and tackled Celia before holding her down.
The pixels around Celia all formed into a gauntlet shaped hand which she used to punch Treble off of her.
The hand was shattered as Roden fired his gun into the gauntlet before it could hurt Treble who was just beginning to recover. “Sorry but there are a lot of people that would be extremely pissed off if Treble Clef lost to a villian like this.”
Celia shook her head and used her abilities to summon her own gun.
“And yes dear readers, we do know her abilities and other actions are beyond ridiculous."
Treble ran up to Roden with Shard and they all prepared themselves for whatever it is they could ever expect it.
”You fools, you're too late, it's time to drop the doom hammer on you…” Celia paused mid sentence to try and understand what she was saying. ”...the doom hammer of doom...upon you...uh...LETS JUST DANCE BABY!”
