Chapter 25: 24) CyCorp Industries: ...and your enemies farther

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

The group just looked at the screen confused, wondering why their friend had just put on a set of mechanical samurai armour and why he was about to fight a cyborg that was also in a set of armour. "Wait, what's going on here?" Lyra asked with a raised brow.

Plas sighed and began to explain the situation in the simplest way possible, to save time and for me to be able to get right to the fight. "Your friend and that cyborg have a very bad history together, something bad happened that caused Cybe to lose his limbs and he blames Shard who was only trying to save his life, now Cybe occasionally brings Shard in so they can face off in a fight to the death AI that he may get his revenge, Shard always wins but refuses to kill Cybe and merely walks away...but now I think Shard isn't willing to hold back considering his using his armour for the first time in a good while." The scientist just looked back at the large screen in worry, he has saw Shards expression when he had walked in the building, there was hardly any evidence in his eyes that he intended to show the cyborg mercy. "All we can do is watch. If we try to interfere both could end up dead, we could end up injured and their honour will be stained."

"So we get to watch a real life fight to the death between a ninja swordsman and a deadly cyborg..." Carrot began. "...I know I should feel concerned for Shards safety here but I just find this all just awesome."

"Same." Lyra, Bonbon and Turner said in unison.

Meanwhile Ditzy just stood with a look of concern on her face, her eyes seeming to be perfectly aligned so she could watch the battle with full focus. If she focused enough she could have her eyes go straight for short periods of time, while it started to hurt if she did it too long this was something that she had to see perfectly. "Be careful Shard..."


Shard stared down his opponent through his armours visor, pointing his sword at Cybe before grasping the hilt of the blade in both hands and bending his knees slightly and turning his body to the side, the tip of the blade just inches above the floor. "Ready..." He said quietly.

Yeah just a word of warning, this is where things start to get more sci-fi, it's just for the fight though. Also, it gets a little dark at one point.

Cybe just hummed quietly to himself as he took a fighting stance. He held out his robotic arm and the hand retracted into the arm, soon replaced by a long silver blade with noticeable sparks of electricity around it. "Ready." Cybe confirmed as he swung his arm blade a few times before preparing it for an attack.

Cybe shot forward and took a swing at Shard who shot his Swingshot into a wall and pulled himself out of the way of the attack, causing Cybe to stab his blade into the wall that was behind Shard. Not missing an opening, Shard ran forward, jumped into the air and spin kicked Cybe right in the head with his metal boot, sending the cyborg flying across the room.

Cybe quickly recovered and aimed his blade at Shard, sending a bolt of electricity at his opponent. Shard managed the get his sword up in time to block the lightning, but a few volts managed to zap him. As Shard was recovering from the defensive Cybe walked forward and punched him in the gut before kicking him in the chest with great force. Shard was sent flying into a wall, things seemed to go in slow motion as the force if the impact caused him to gasp, all the air leaving his lungs.

He fell onto his hands and knees while gasping for air. Cybe just walked to his side and level his blade with the back of his neck. As the blade was coming down Shard held up a hand and caught the sword, the electricity shocking him, but nonetheless he kept his grip on the blade and got to his feet.

He made eye contact with Cybe before levelling his own blade and bringing it down, slicing the electric blade clean off of Cybes arm. Shard them brought his elbow up to Cybes chin just as fast as he had sliced the blade. He then grabbed Cybes head and slammed it into the wall.

Cybe just recovered and punched Shard in the face with a left hook before switching his robot arm back to a hand. He reached behind him and pulled out a slick, white gun of some sort before aiming and pulling the trigger. A wave of blue energy was sent towards Shard who out his arms up to defend against the wave, he was forced back but no major damage was made to his person...but his armour began to crack.

Cybe then charged shoulder first at Shard and nailed him in the chest, causing his armour to shatter. Shard quickly back pedalled and took off the broken metal plates of his armour. His eyes began to spark with flames and his hair began to flicker. He noticed this and focused on holding it back. 'Keep it together!'

Shard spun his blade for a second before closing his eyes and becoming still, his breathing controlled. Cybe growled and aimed his gun, firing it he was surprised as Shards hand quickly moved with his blade and sliced the wave in half. "Fantastic..."

He switched his hand out into a spinning buzz blade, he charged Shard again and swung his saw. Shard opened his eyes that gleamed orange for a split second before moving to the side, turning his blade around in his hand and stabbing the sword through Cybes back all the way though and out his chest as he passed him.

Cybe fell limp and landed with a loud clang of his metal suit. He tried to move his robotic limbs but they didn't respond, Shard had cut the circuit that connected his cybernetic limbs to his brain, rendering them useless. Shard came up behind Cybe, grabbed the hilt of the blade, and quickly pulled it out and swinging it to throw the blood off the blade. A small puddle began to form underneath Cybe as drops of blood dripped out of his wound. "Go ahead...finish me...you know we'll just end up back here if you don't." Cybe spoke through his metal mask.

Shard just stood behind him, bruised, burned and with a few broken bones. He looked to the blade in his hand, temptation to kill the man before him rising. "No." He stated simply before he began walking towards the exit. "I'm not in the mood to kill you. Just give it up already. You want to die so bad then see if you still have the balls to do it yourself. We're done here." Shard glared back at his opponent for another second before walking through the door and immediately being directed towards the medical wing by a few nurses.

The door behind him closed and Cybe could only lay there as his blood slowly left his body.

Plas shook his head and pressed a button begore speaking into a microphone. "Medical team B come to the main test arena to retrieve Cybe, his limbs are shut down and he's bleeding out." A few moments later he got a call. "Hello?"

"This is medical team B, the doors to the chamber won't open!" The man on the other end exclaimed.

"What?" Plas pressed a button that should have opened the doors to the chamber but for some reason they remained closed. "Of all times to malfunction...bust the door with the batterie ram on the next chamber."

"We can't! The doors reinforcement protocols were activated! They've been closed of by steel panels!"

Plas sent the group out of the room as he tried to get things back to normal to save his boss who had fainted use to blood loss. "Damnit! He gonna die in there! What's causing this?!"

Meanwhile Soledad just hummed a merry tuns to himself as he continued to keep everyone out of the room to let the cyborg die. "Ah, soon this facility shall be mine. I love it when a plan comes together."

Cybe just opened his eyes one more time before breathing his final breath...

Well...at least Shard doesn't need to worry about a vengeful cyborg anymore.

Author's Notes:

Yeah, a bit dark there. Cybe and Shards past will be looked into in the next few chapters. Don't worry, we're right back to the comedy and cute moments after this...

Oh wait, the crap with Mise...fuck
