Pyra: Hello my dear readers. The time has come to put my characters against one another in a fight to the death. These will merely be copies of the originals but everything about them remains to same. Now, it wouldn't be a Deathbattle parody without two wacky announcers would it? So, here to help me are two of my other characters. Symph and Author. I will leave you in their company.

Treble

Author: Years ago in the city of Canterlot a portal from Equestria to the human world opened up thanks to a certain unicorn wizard.

Symph: This portal would open up from time to time allowing other beings to cross worlds. While mainly used to banish evils into an alternative dimension there were cases where a being would willingly walk through this gateway or fall into it.

A: One of those that fell into this portal was none other than the semi-silent protagonist Treble Dantes Clef. Born mere seconds before his sister Vinyl Scratch from his mother Synthesia, Treble would soon turn out to be a very strange child.

S: While his twin sister was born mute Treble was given the ability to speak, but was limited to two words at a time due to a fault in the development of his brain, so through his childhood he relied on others to communicate for him if more than two words were needed or sign language was not an option.

While he was young he befriended to human five and quickly became like a brother to the group. However once his father was caught cheating on his mother and a divorce was filed, Trebles father, a man only known as X, gain custody of him, separating him from his twin sister and friends.

A: While under the custody of his power hungry and selfish father, Treble was forced into training for a life of crime. While he was under the watch of his father's criminal organisation The Black Cats, he met a young Spitfire who began teaching him how to fight right under his father's nose.

S: While his brains fault caused communication problems between the two, it had a few perks to it. For one his senses were developed in a much more complex way than that of a normal human, allowing him to be a natural quick thinker and have sensitive senses such as hearing and sight. With the training he received from his young unpredictable mentor and first love, along with his complex thinking, he was able to adapt and use his surroundings to his advantage. At one point in his future life he managed to use only the lid of a trash can to defeat three large thugs in a tight alley.

A: Treble is not limited to his wits in a fight. He is a master at hand to hand combat and he is so strong he once lifted two teenage girls into the air effortlessly, spun them around and threw them into trees with such great force that they were immediately rendered unconscious. Not to mention he is able to crack and even shatter stone if he focuses his strength hard enough on a strike or experiences an anger induced adrenaline rush, which temporarily boosts his strength and speed.

S: Treble has few weapons, mainly relying on his fists in a fight. His favourite choice of weapons are his twin crimson brass knuckles he carries around in his pockets. He usually uses whatever is on hand as a weapon, such as a trash can lid, baseball bat, metal pipe or whatever is in his area.

A: While Treble lacks in a personal arsenal of deadly weapons, he makes up for it in his defence. After being exposed to the portal to Equestria and uniting the human five in friendship, their magic formed a protective barrier around his body which can shield him from damage. It is tough enough to endure an explosion from a tanker truck before breaking, slowly regenerating over time. Once his barrier is down he can still take a considerable amount of damage before being taken out.

S: However, Treble does have a very powerful weapon at his disposal, given to him by Pyra himself. The Orbital Bass Cannon. This satellite will fire a deadly stream of sound and light energy onto a concentrated spot, destroying whatever is in its target range. This cannon was used only once by Treble, during the time he and two other OCs were trapped in another world, in which he used the cannon to kill Celia, a girl that exists outside of reality and was able to change the story to her liking.

A: He also uses his brass knuckles and fast reflexes to block blades in close quarters combat. Having fought off multiple groups of thugs, defeated his two deadly assassin half sisters and taking down his father's organisation Treble has certainly proven himself as a cut above the rest. But will his skills be enough to best his challenger?

Shard

A: Centuries ago in the island of Japan, there were two warring families. One day a storm caused them all to retreat into the safety of a nearby cave where they took shelter until the devastating hurricane died down. When they emerged their village was destroyed and the other villagers were dead.

S: So the two families called a temporary truce as they helped each other to rebuild their homes and keep the village populated and strong, although tensions were still high. That is of course, except for two of the members of these families. Each from opposing sides, their love was forbidden. This did not stop them from trying to persuade the families to allow them to marry.

A: This unfortunately ended in the pair having to kill the leader of one of the families in order to escape. The couple were banished from the lands, but this ended up being a blessing as they could finally be together without worrying about their families, and began a new family appropriately known as the Arashi Family, or in English, the Storm Family.

S: However this was both a blessing and a literal curse. The members of the two families placed a curse on the two, starting that every three generations a son with hair like flames shall be born and bear the terrible curse that will cause them and their families great pain. That is until, one of the cursed children learned to harness this curse and bury it deep within and began teaching this to any of the new cursed generations.

A: The latest of these cursed children was the orange haired swordsman named Shard Storm. Shard lived a rather poor life in the inner city of Canterlot, with his father stuck in a low paying job and having to support his family, Shard had to find a way to get enough money for his mother and father to live a happy life, especially with a younger sibling on the way.

S: Shard signed a contract with a technology research company known as CyCorp, agreeing to test out their new weapons or gadgets in exchange for a pretty hefty salary. During this time as a young child Shard also took up the art of Kenjutsu, mastering both one-sword and two-sword styles. With his hand crafted katanas at his side and his growing knowledge of technology Shard had a promising future. And things seemed to be going well.

A: Until a vengeful cyborg named Cybe targeted him. The two engaged in various fights until eventually Shard came out on top. With his fighting skills and knowledge of his opponent, Shard dominated the ring.

S: Shard wields two orange and black katanas, keeping one on hand at all times. These two swords are made out of a special steel, making them incredibly hard to break, but dull easily. He is incredibly skilled with a blade and can effortlessly cut through most materials weaker than steel.

A: He also holds a grappling hook called the Swingshot given to him by CyCorp after testing, allowing him to get up to hard to reach places, as long as there is something to latch onto. He is also skilled with a firearm, but does not carry one around with him.

S: Shards body is durable and strong, but he has his limits. While he may be strong enough to use a blade to cut through steel, provided it is sharp enough, he can only achieve this kind of strength through focus, something that is difficult to achieve in a fast paced fight.

A: He is incredibly fast, but can only move so much before he starts to run out of energy, making his attacks weaker and his body slower. He is incredibly athletic, able to traverse most terrain and navigate a variety of locations to use to his advantage.

S: Shard is limited in his skill with hand to hand combat, so if he were to be without a blade or weapon would cause him to be put on a permanent defensive with very few chances to hit back. But, due to his strength, he is able to land high damage attacks easily with his fists or feet.

A: When Shard is angered or pushed to his limits he can no longer keep his hidden rage in check and his curse will surface. His hair, eyes and anything in his body that is orange will flicker and burn like fire. His speed, stamina and strength are all increased by this form, but it comes at a price.

S: The longer he stays in this state the darker he will become, he will begin to lose memories and his body will feel the after effects of the form. In most cases, he acts on pure rage when in this state and will not plan his attacks. Shard is also well educated in all things supernatural, and carries various concoctions or charms to assist him if he were ever to come across a supernatural force.

A: Shard is a master of the blade and his proven himself time and time again as a great fighter. With defeating mechs, cyborgs, jocks or whatever got in his way, he was sure to cut it down to size. Now let's see how he does in a fight to the death.

“Damn...why is it that everyone comes to me with their problems?” Shard sat down in his family's temple near the outskirts of Canterlot and sighed. “I swear to Kami if anyone else bothers me today they're getting their asses kicked.”

He took in a deep breath and sighed.

“Just gotta calm down...just gotta focus...just gotta-”

*CRASH!!!*

“Oh what now?!” Shard turned around to see Treble on the ground rubbing his head, one of the vase on a shrine lay shattered on the ground.

‘What the hell? What just happened? I was just walking by the school when something dragged me in...wait...where am I?’ Treble stood up and looked around, noticing the broken vase. ‘Uh oh...did I fall on that?’

“HEY!!!” Treble spun around to see Shard glaring at him. “THIS IS PRIVATE PROPERTY, AND THAT VASE BELONGED TO MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER!!!” Overcome by anger, Shard unsheathed his blade and charged Treble, who ducked to avoid a swing of the sword.

(Song!)

‘Well, guess I'm fighting.’ Treble dropped onto his back and used both feet to kick Shard up the jaw, throwing him backwards.

When they both got to their feet they glared at each other. “You messed with the wrong swordsman buddy.”

FIGHT!!!

Shard charged Treble and thrust his sword forward, only for Treble to quickly step to the side and kick him in the ribs. Shard came to a halt and coughed, allowing Treble to come up behind him and punch him in the back of the head. Treble tripped him up, kicked him into the air before punching him twice and kicking him back into the ground.

Shard growled and jumped to his feet, slashing at Treble who barely dodged and the blade scratched the surface of the his magic field. Shard shot forward and knocked Treble onto the ground and stomped on his chest with great force, causing the ground beneath him to crack slightly. He picked Treble up by the throat and attempted to stab his blade through him.

Treble spun around, releasing himself from Shards grasp before jumping back and cracking his neck, taking a fighting stance. He began to back away, looking around searching for anywhere he may get more of an advantage. Shard ran over and attempted to wind him with the hilt of his blade, only for Treble to kick the blade away and punch Shard in the face. Shard tumbled and his sword landed with a loud clang.

Shard got to his feet and glared. He picked up his sword and began to concentrate. He dashed over at blinding speed and knocked Treble off balance, slashing at him rapidly. Once he was done he grabbed Treble by his hair and threw him over to a nearby building and he crashed through the wooden wall.

Treble groaned as he pushed the wooden planks off of him and stood up, white slash marks all over his body that began to slowly disappear. ‘Crap, gotta go on the defensive and let this fix itself.’ Treble reached into his pockets and tossed his brass knuckles into the air before the fell and slipped onto his hands.

When Shard jumped through the hole in the wall he was grabbed by the arm and slammed into a stone wall, before he was struck in the chest by Trebles brass knuckle. Shard grunted and pulled himself off the wall before quickly looking around the Japanese themed building and spotting another katana. He slashed at Treble a few times who dodged for the most part but was struck by one final blow the crushed him to stagger.

Shard rushed towards the sword and unsheathed it, taking it in his Fred hand and grinning. “Alright, now let me give you a real fight.” Treble groaned and put his fists up. Shard jumped over and began to swing at Treble from multiple angles, only for each blow to be deflected by the brass knuckles and his fast reaction time.

Treble ducked and punched Shard in the stomach before lifting up a plank of wood and smashing it over the side of Shards head. He then grabbed Shard by the back of the head and shoved it through the wooden wall before kicking him in the back, creating another hole in the wall.

Treble needed to get some distance to let his field fully heal so he grabbed a nearby spear and threw it into the side of the building before jumping in its pole and using it to jump up to the roof where he began running along the temples rooftops.

Shard got to his feet and began to growl, his hair beginning to flicker like flames as his eyes glowed. He gripped both of the blades and screamed at the sky as he began to let his curse come out. His eyes, hair and orange fur on his black jacket were now orange flames, and the edges of his blades now were lined with fire.

Treble sighed as he rested his back against a pillar, the lines on his body almost completely gone. Suddenly a metal claw clamped onto his arm and pulled him off of the roof and slammed him down onto the ground. The claw was retracted by a iron rope that retreated back into Shards Swingshot.

Treble took a cautious stance as Shard glared at him with fire in his eyes. She suddenly dashed in front of him and hit him with a headbut, knocking him back towards the buildings. Treble began to run along the wall of the buildings while Shard chased him while swinging his swords, causing to fire to spread onto the woodworks as he missed his slashes. Treble kicked up an old shield and placed it on his arm before picking up a broken piece of stone and throwing it towards Shard who effortlessly cut it in half.

Shard mindlessly swiped at Treble, dealing a lot of damage from the rapid and unpredictable movements and strikes. Treble was able to escape the onslaught and bashed Shards head against the shield.

As Shard shook his head he thrust his blade forward and pierced the shield and managed to stab through to Treble, but was only able to slightly pierce his body with his field now broken.

Treble ditched the shield and kicked Shard back before feeling the effects of an oncoming adrenaline high. He used this boost of energy to run out into the large open area, pulling a remote out of his jacket pocket.

Shard began to chance him until Treble stopped and turned around, pointing the remote at him. Shard stopped as he saw a ring of red dots surround him. The dots all converged on his spot and he heard a loud boom that sounded like one of Vinyls dubstep devices going off. He looked up only to be pushed down by a huge beam on light blue energy.

Once the blast ended their was a small crater in the middle of the temple grounds. Shard lay in the middle, his body naked and completely burned. His eardrums had exploded in the process and his vision began to fade. The lad thing he felt was Treble place a hand on his head and another under his chin before in one swift movement, he snapped his neck.

Shard fell limp onto the ground and Treble wiped his brow. He looked around at the now burning buildings and destroyed temple and chuckled nervously while holding the stab wound in his chest. ‘I should probably go find the portal back to my universe now…’ With that, he sprinted off towards Canterlot High.

K.O!!!

S: While Shard was able to deal mass amounts of damage in short time periods and could easily keep up with his opponent, Trebles resourcefulness and quick thinking we're just enough to finish him off when he went into a more mindless state.

A: Even if Shard had kept control of the transformation Trebles defence and use of the environment would allow him to stay one step ahead. Ultimately, Treble had the necessary tool to defeat his opponent in one fell swoop, and even surviving in that kind of state after being hit with that blast is an impressive feat by itself.

S: Unfortunately Shard will often let his anger take hold and his defences were not strong enough to protect himself against attacks, as he focuses on mainly offensive measures.

A: Shard just couldn't cut it.

S: The winner is Treble Clef.
