Chapter 10: Felicia VS Taokaka
Previous Chapter Next ChapterWe see our group of watchers seated in front of the television, preparing to finish the finale episode of the day.
“Sorry but we're skipping this intro as well,” interrupted Pinkie Pie yet again.
Wait what!? NO, NOT AGAIN YOU LITTLE PINK SH-
Interlude
(*Cues: Invader - Jim Johnston*)
Boomstick: Catfight!
“Oh dear celestia,” muttered Rarity.
Wiz: It literally is Boomstick. Not only do we have two ferocious females in the ring today, but they're also, well, cats.
Boomstick: Felicia, the popstar demon cat chick lady.
“A demon?” Twilight questioned.
Wiz: And Taokaka, BlazBlue's speedy vigilante.
Boomstick: He´s Wiz and I´m Boomstick...
Wiz: And it´s our job to analyze their weapons, armour and skills to find out who would win a DEATH BATTLE.
Felicia
(*Cues: Felicia's Theme - Marvel vs Capcom 3*)
Wiz: As a catwoman, Felicia faced discrimination all her life. She was raised by a nun and became a successful pop-star, a passion that would ultimately lead her on a quest to bring humans and cat-people together to make children happy.
Background:
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 128 lbs.
Raised by a nun
Happy-Go-Lucky attitude
Superhuman Strength, Speed, & Endurance
“She wants to have her kind accepted?” Twilight said, impressed by the cat-woman’s goal.
“And she just wants to make children happy,” Fluttershy quietly said, wishing she could meet her.
“That’s a noble goal for her,” Rarity said, dabbing a handkerchief under her eyes. Hearing about Felicia’s goals brought some tears to her eyes.
Boomstick: What the hell? I thought we were talking about a deadly demon warrior and... is she naked?!
This gave the girls and dragon something to think about. Is she classified as naked.
Wiz: Yes.
“Ok?” Rainbow said, unsure what else to say.
Boomstick: But, she's a cat.
“Is he going were I think he’s going?” Rarity asked, feeling very uncomfortable.
Wiz: Yes…
“We know that. Is Boomstick trying to go somewhere with this?” Applejack said, trying to understand Boomstick’s questions.
Boomstick: Hmmm... do you think it'd be wrong to-
“OH good god, Boomstick!” Twilight screamed as she covered Spike ears. Much too young drakes annoyance
Wiz: Yes! Felicia is a Darkstalker, a creature of the night, and naturally possesses supernatural strength, speed and agility. She can also use her unique cat senses to sniff out enemies from extreme distances.
“She sure beats wynona's nose,” commented Applejack.
Boomstick: She can tear into her foes with the sharp claws restin' in her big-ass paws, each several inches long and capable of tearing through all kinds of armor.
“Those would cause some damage,” Rainbow said, eyeing those long pink nails.
“She must take very special care of her nails,” Rarity said, wondering what products she uses if any at all.
Wiz: To top it off her tail is extremely strong, able to lift her entire body on its own. She's undeniably one of the faster darkstalkers, and can get around the battlefield with her unpredictable Rolling Smash, Delta Kicks and Rolling Buckler.
Combat:
Long, Pink Claws
Strong Tail
Speed-Based Combo
High-Damaging Grapples
Can charge Energy at will
Natural Athlete
Special Moves:Rolling Smash
Delta Kick/Cat Spike
Hell Cat Grapple
Rolling Buckler Links to Various Attacks
Sandsplash:Short Range
Low-Middle Height
Also called Litter Box Kick
“Ah ya! Speed for the win!” cheered Rainbow Dash, voice full of pride.
Boomstick (Singing): Felicia... she can really move... Felicia... she's got an attitu-ude-
(*Cues: Night Warriors Darkstalker' Revenge: The Animated Series - Intro Theme Instrumental*)
Wiz: Yes Boomstick, we get it, she's like Sonic. Anyway, as a darkstalker, Felicia has a natural affinity for magic, able to use it in the form of her only ranged attack: kicking sand
“Kicking sand… really?” Deadpanned Twilight.
“I wanna know who this Sonic dude is,” said Rainbow Dash. wondering why the name struck a chord with her.
Boomstick: At least she's litter box trained
“Is that a racist remark?” Rainbow asked her knowledgable friend. Twilight simply shrugged her shoulders, unsure of the answer to that.
Wiz: As she was raised by a nun, even becoming one herself, she has little to no combat training, preferring to focus on her singing career and running an orphanage. As such, she relies on her lethal feral instincts in a fight.
“That could lead her to losing this match.” remarked Applejack.
Boomstick: But these same instincts also lead her to be easily distracted by ferocious enemies like butterflies, rolling balls of yarn and paper that crinkles.
“That’s really sad ….Oh a bit,” Pinkie said, reaching for the shiny bit on the floor.
Wiz: The other darkstalkers consider Felicia to be one of the weakest of their kind, but with the help from her friends, she somehow manages to hold her own against demon lords, spell casters and all-powerful aliens.
“That’s quite the list she’s got there,” Rarity exclaimed, liking that the cat-woman wasn’t some push over.
Boomstick: That's one cat you don't want to cross.
Felicia: I sure could use a catnap.
Felicia then turns into her cat form.
“Awww kitty!” cooed Fluttershy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The group had to admit that Felicia was a good person and a strong warrior.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Taokaka
(*Cues: Catus Carnival - BlazBlue Calamity Trigger*)
Boomstick: That chick wearing a cat hoodie?
“Looks like it to me,” Rainbow said, taking a bite out of a cupcake.
Wiz: No, that's a special cloak to fit her Kaka body.
“Cough cough,” Rainbow started to choke on her cupcake as Applejack slapped her back. The hit caused Rainbow to cough up the cupcakes as she said, “WHAT!”
Boomstick: Her what body?
Wiz: Taokaka is a vigilante of the Kaka tribe, a catlike people descended from genetically engineered living weapons. Her genetics, provide her with a natural fighting instinct. She is the guardian of the Kaka, implying that she is the best fighter of the group.
Background:
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 93 lbs.
Descended from Genetically Engineered Weapons
Guardian & Vigilante
Incredibly Stupid
“Well it’s good that she uses her strength for her home and her people,” said Twilight.
Boomstick: While she may be a good fighter, she's one dumb cat.
“What?” everyone questioned, confused with boomsticks remark.
Wiz: Unfortunately, Tao has an incredibly severe case of ADHD. While she hunts bounties with the intent of improving her fighting skill and bringing money to her family, she often winds up completely forgetting about her mission at the worst of times, often even befriending her would-be targets.
Everyone facepalmed at the tidbit of information.
Boomstick: She has twelve retractable dual-edged blades on her hands and feet. While they´re not very long, they can transform from basic claws to hook-size and saw-blades. Damn, I don´t even want to think what those things would do to my couch.
Combat:
Total of 12 Retractable Razor-Sharp Blades
Speed-Based Combos
Expert Air Control
'Dancing Edge' Drive is Extremely Fast
Seithr:Uses Instinctively
Uses for Special Attacks
3 Powerful Fast, Distortion Drives
Astral Heat
Limited Amount Available
Rarity shuddered at the thought. Knowing how bad it is with just opal causing her furniture unneeded damage.
Wiz: Tao's genes allow her to instinctively access and utilize Seithr: a raw, powerful energy seething through the air. Tao can use Seithr to empower and transform her claws, as well as to execute incredibly vicious attacks. However, there is only so much Seithr in a given space, and once she runs out, Tao will lose many of her deadliest attributes.
Boomstick: Also, apparently Tao likes to carry around a lot of random shit, which she then uses as projectiles during a fight: bowling balls, apple cores, pillo-- a pillow? Really!?
“Oh, wonder if I can do that?” Pinkie asked, grabbing a pillow. With the pillow in her hooves, she moved her hooves to the side and somehow cocked it like a gun.
Wiz: She's the fastest of the BlazBlue cast, darting around the arena with incredibly fast combos. However, she's also the weakest stamina-wise and doesn't have very many defensive options.
“She’s like a glass cannon,” Twilight said, letting everyone know what Wiz meant.
Boomstick: But, if you want to kick her ass, you gotta catch her first!
Taokaka: Aah! It's the boobie lady!
Wiz: Alright the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all.
Boomstick: After the thing people bitch about in the comments.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As the ads roll, the girls and dragon were discussing on who they would be rooting for. For Team Felica, we had Fluttershy, Spike, Rarity and Twilight. As Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie were for Team Toakaka.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Boomstick: It's time for a Death Battle.
Death Battle
(*Cues: Darkstalkers 3 - Felicia's Ending Theme*)
On a wooden bridge, a pink butterfly flies toward Felicia, who is wearing her nun attire and is watering plants. Felicia notices it and takes off her robes, then begins following it. She then leaps at it four times before accidentally bumping into Taokaka. Felicia jumps back while Taokaka is agitated.
Taokaka: Alright!
“CAT FIGHT!” cheered Spike.
FIGHT!
(*Cues: Calamity Trigger - BlazBlue Calamity Trigger*)
Taokaka charges at Felicia, unleashing a long combo before knocking her into the air, then slamming her into the ground with her hook claws. She charges again when Felicia uses her rolling smash to jump onto her attacker, then unleashes a combo of her own. Felicia then knocks Taokaka into the air, jumps upward, slashes her a few times before grabbing her and throwing her to the ground. Felicia lands and Taokaka attempts to counter, but her attack is blocked, leaving her wide open to Felicia's delta kick. Felicia then uses rolling smash and moves back and forth, hitting Taokaka repeatedly before she jumps upward and catches Felicia. Taokaka proceeds to stab Felicia multiple times with her claws before Felicia completely reverses it with her hell cat grapple, concluding by throwing Taokaka.
Taokaka: Boing!
Taokaka has her hands on the ground and her tail in the air while Felicia in her fighting stance as well.
“This is getting intense,” muttered Rainbow Dash, as she leaned in further to watch the insane fight.
(*Cues Felicia's Darkstalkers 3 Ending Theme again*)
Then the butterfly from before returns, grabbing both of their attention. The two repeatedly leap at it and as the butterfly approaches Felicia, Taokaka slashes it with her claws.
“Are they… “ trailed of Rarity. Lost for words.
“Eyup!” replied Applejack.
Taokaka: Whoops!
Felicia is upset.
Felicia: No, no, no!
Felicia then lunges at Taokaka, letting out a cat-like roar, and unleashes a combo on her. The two trade combos until Taokaka is slashing at thin air, forgetting where Felicia is. Felicia lands on
“SHIT!” cursed a surprise Rainbow Dash.
Taokaka and slashes at her face before knocking her back with a kick. Taokaka gets into a one-legged stance when Felicia uses rolling smash. She catches Felicia off-guard using her saw blades, knocking her back. Felicia uses sandsplash, but to no avail as Taokaka jumps right over it, trapping her in a combo and knocking Felicia into the air. She strikes Felicia multiple times, keeping her in the air, then lands. Taokaka then takes out her claws and jumps upward.
Taokaka: Taokaka boom!
The strike is so devastating that it slices Felicia in half, seperating her top and bottom halfs of her body. Taokaka is then shown dancing.
K.O.!.
Taokaka: Nya ha, nya ha, nya ha!
Taokaka then sits down on the ground.
Taokaka: Now I'm bored.
Results
(*Cues: Bright - BlazBlue*)
Boomstick: Felicia just got put down!
“Poor Miss Felicia,” Rarity said, feeling sad that a kind soul lost the fight. Fluttershy lowered her head, trying to head the tears threatening to run down her face. The thought of Felicia not being there for the children was heartbreaking for soft spoken mare.
Wiz: But this one was very close; based on their move sets, Tao appeared to have a slight speed advantage. Though, Felicia had the endurance of a Dark Stalker, Tao's superior agility eventually gave her the win.
“Speed does tend to beat endurance sometimes,” Twilight said, knowing it first hand.
“Ponies like me and Tao can dish out damage faster than our opponents can handle,” bragged Rainbow Dash.
Boomstick: Not to mention she's got freakin' razorblades for claws! Felicia just took her final meow.
“That joke was CATastrophe!” giggled out Pinkie Pie, getting a frustrated sigh from all her friends.
Wiz: The winner is Taokaka.
END.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Boomstick: Next time on Death Battle!
(cue God of War III Theme)
The girls were awed as they see a masculine figure standing under a raging storm, they can hardly see him. The camera changes and they see up close to his face; All they see is an angry and avenging with a hint of bloodlust look in the the fiery eyes he displays which also intimidates the girls and had spike hide behind a equally scared Twilight.
Then they see a male figure shrouded by a red cape and he's wearing a skintight, black suit, with white streaks on the chest and mask. The suit is also decorated with chains, spikes and skulls giving him a deadly appearance..
The music indicates these two fighters are cold blooded killers even destroyer of worlds.
The title says it all.

“Hooo wee! That was a fun episode,” Applejack said, taking off her hat to wipe her brow.
“I’ll say. It was awesome to see characters use their speed in a fight,” Rainbow Dash said, hovering in the air while throwing a few punches.
“I sure wish we could learn a little bit more about them though,” Fluttershy quietly added in. getting nod of agreements from everyone.
Suddenly a bright light started to shine from the corner of the room right where twilight placed the box that once contained the Death Battle DVDs.
“What in tarnations!” Applejack said, getting ready to fight if she needed to.
“Whatever it is, it needs to cut it out!”
And as soon as the light started it ended just as quickly, leaving the group confused on what just happened.
“Is that supposed to happen Twilight?” asked a scared Fluttershy.
“Well only way to find out!” yelled Pinkie as she ignored the screams of protest from her friends as she tore the box open. She looked inside the box in silence.
“Ooooh! Guy’s you need to take a look at this!” yelled the party pony, as she started to dig through the box.
“What is it, darling? More dvds?” Rarity asked, curious of what’s inside the box.
“Nope! Even better!” cheered the pink pony, still having half of her body inside the box.
“Are those comics?” Twilight asked, squinting her eyes a bit. Next to her, Spike had a huge smile on his face when comics were mentioned.
“And posters. There’s even a Haggar one,” Pinkie said, holding a large poster of said wrestler on it. The girls walked towards the box and took a look inside.
“Oh my, there seems to be comics on each of the contestants of the show,” Rarity said while pulling out a stack of Darkstalkers comics.
“Awesome. There’s some on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” Rainbow excitedly said, holding a huge stack of TMNT comics.
“You gotta let me read them once I’m done,” Pinkie said, balancing some Wonder Woman comics on her head.
“Um, I’ll read these if nopony minds,” Fluttershy stuttered, holding a moderately sized stack of Mario comic with Yoshi on the cover.
“I’m gonna enjoy these,” Applejack said, holding a few Street Fighter comics.
“As will I,” Twilight said, levitating a few Metroid mangas out of the box. “I wonder If we’ll get anything else if we continue watching the show?”
The others look at her curiously as Spike searches through the box for any comics he could read.
