Triple X System

”Why don’t you face me you fucking insect!” Falcon madly screamed, her view was partially covered with her own blood as she was bleeding from head to toe.

”Screech!” The enraged bat responded by slashing it’s long sharp claws at her back, causing her agony to increase more.

’M-my legs are getting numb.’ She was putting a lot of effort to stand, she’d lost a lot of blood so naturally her stamina and life were going down the drain.

”I have a plan!” The archer suddenly yelled out to falcon.

”Run!” She shouted causing falcon to stare at her weirdly.

”What do you mean run? I never run from a fight. And that’s the worst plan you’ve ever come up with.” She angrily spoke but the archer just shook her head. Falcon didn’t know what she meant by that, but she would have to trust her plan as it was better than just blindly standing around.

Running falcon was careful to maintain her speed with that of the archer, she didn’t know what her plan was but she had to try it.

”Screech!” The creature screamed from top going down for an attack, it’s dark shadowy body enabling it to be undetected.

’Bam!’ The arrow hit the bat head stunning it a bit, falcon not hesitating slashed her whip glowing a bright green releasing multiple thin green lines of aura’s.

The creature roared in pain blocking it’s head with it’s two large wings, the green aura’s hit it’s body tearing it’s flesh a bit drawing out black blood. The archer didn’t also stop firing her arrows constantly shooting off at the shadow bat, falcon and the archer didn’t stop in their attacks giving it their everything.

”Shit.” Reaching back there was no more arrows on her vessel only one, she knew this wouldn’t be enough to kill the beast as it’s resistance was just unbelievable.

”Hold it!” She yelled to falcon. the latter wasn’t so sure that was a great idea, cause she’d already tried that and it didn’t work out well for her.

”Ok!”

’Here goes nothing.’ Placing the bow to the string she pulled back with her full strength, steading her breath maintaining a firm stance. Red smoke was slowly seeping out from her as she channeled a skill, the arena surrounding her suddenly became hot.

”Fuck I can’t hold it.” Falcon gritted her teeth struggling to hold the bat with her hardened green ooze whip, her ability had been in use since she rescued Kyle.

’I don’t think my mana’s going to last any longer.’ She could feel her mana draining very fast, because of the high amount of mana it cost to channel her lethal skills.

The energy in the archer was surging faster as red light had enveloped the arrow, turning it into a beam of red light. Beads of sweat rolled down her face while she concentrated, there were small crack on the floor where she stood.

The attack has gotten much bigger than before, as she purged forward. With a loud grunt she finally released all the inbuilt energy, firing of the red arrow in a beam form to the creature.

”Screech!” The creature tried avoiding the incoming attack, but falcon made sure to hold it in place using her strength.

’Bang! bang? bang!’ Multiple bang sounds went off as the arrow cut through air, heading for the bat held in place by falcon’s whip. The arrow had closed the gap between it and the bat in an instant, the bat seeing this couldn’t block with it’s wing as falcon had tied the wings with her whip.

”There’s no where to run now.” Falcon smiled seeing the bat defenseless, or that was what she thought? Before her eyes, the bat suddenly stopped struggling looking at her with a mocking gaze grinning, it’s body suddenly disappeared appearing behind falcon.

’What?’ She was too slow to react, as the bat kicked her forward to the incoming arrow.

’I have to decrease the damage.’ She thought swirling her whip very fast in a circular motion, releasing huge currents of winds within seconds. The beam of arrow was slowing down as it was just few meters from falcon, she’d expected it to be flung away by the huge amount of air currents she released now. But to her greatest surprise the arrow didn’t, instead swaying in the air as falcon’s torrent opposed it.

...

”That one seems interesting.” King Troy smiled, staring at falcon through the huge holographic screen. He applauded her sense of tactic, and her fast reasoning to process things while in battle.

”I might consider sparing those two lives.” He smiled chuckling a bit.

”What about him?” Lumia pointed to Kyle still paralyzed by the bat toxins. she could see he struggled to get to his feet, and his eyes was constantly staring at the blue rusted katana.

”There is nothing about him. He’ll be damn lucky if he manages to survive this, and even if he does I have no use for him.” Troy shook his head deeming Kyle worthless. Though he’d managed to kill some creatures on his own, but they were all low level creatures so they weren’t important.

”So that’s it? You’re just going to deem him not worthy? Where’s your honour father, or did it die the day you lost mom.” Lumia angrily spoke, causing Troy’s grip on the arm on the throne to break it into dust. There was a frown on his face, as his once calm aura had suddenly spoke to high lengths.

”Why do you have so much faith in this alien?”

”I don’t know, but I have faith someday something good will finally come here.” She softly said, causing Troy to glance at her from the side before returning his focus back to the match.

’I can’t allow something new olga. everything has to be the way it is, so I can protect our daughter.’ Troy silently thought. The picture of his dead wife flashing before his eyes, along with the beautiful moments he spent with his family.

....

Meanwhile in the maze, the bat had launched multiple attacks at falcon blinking multiple times, avoiding the attacks she also launched. Her body was very weak and her vision blurry, it wouldn’t take much time before she couldn’t keep up anymore.

’I-i’ve always thought no one was a match for me.’ A bitter smile appeared on her lips, along with her blood strolling down her head. Her green armour did well in taking most of the damage, but was now destroyed falling to the floor.

”Argh!” The red haired female archer tried to sneak attack the bat, but she was very unsuccessful. one swing from the bat’s powerful hand sent her flying, and crashing into a wall knocking her out cold.

”Ahh!” Unable to keep up with her hand made tornado, she fell to the floor. the arrow not being hindered anymore, continued onwards crashing into a wall.

’Boom.’ A small explosion occured as the beam connected with the wall, a great portion of the wall had been destroyed as derbies were blasted everywhere.

”Do me the honours and kill me fast.” Defeated she lost the will to fight, as she just stayed down to the ground. The predator slowly lurked in, it’s blood red eyes aimed at falcon it’s fangs on display along with it’s claws.

Swiftly lifting falcon up in the air with it’s two legs, it stared at her with it’s eyes clutching her tightly in it’s grip. Falcon weakly stared at it’s enchanting eyes, she didn’t know why but the more she looked the more she lost control of her body.

’it can absorb blood without drinking.’ She could see the blood flowing down her head had stopped for some reason, going up floating into the bat body.

’Why does everywhere suddenly feel so.. cold.’ She didn’t know why, but the atmosphere just suddenly became more chillier than usual.

’So this is what it feels like to die.’ She thought it was peaceful when someone died, as there was nothing else that mattered anymore. It was just her consciousness fading into the tranquil peace, her mind going away from the light into eternal slumber.

”Screech!” The bat suddenly screamed dropping falcon to the ground, raising her head a bit she could see the bat’s left arm cleanly cut apart from it’s body.

”Huh?” Just when she’d accepted death, a sudden hero burst out of nowhere to rescue her.

”I told you I won’t let any of you die.” Kyle uttered with a crazed smile, holding the rusted blue coloured katana in his right hand.

”You hurt them now, it’s your turn to suffer.”

’Bam!’ Kyle’s body moved fast with speed, reaching the bat within the blink of an eye. Slashing downwards, the creature managed to block by also swiping it’s claws at Kyle katana. The two forces collided causing a small gush of wind, it was clear who the winner was.

”Screech!” The creature screamed in pain, as it’s claws were cleanly cut off from it’s hand. There was a look of surprise and disbelief on the creature’s face, seeing how this dying young man had suddenly became overpowered.

’Swoosh!’ Kyle didn’t give the creature anytime to rest, as he slashed his katana to it’s head. The attack was fast and the creature couldn’t block, blinking it appeared a bit further away from Kyle precisely where the archer laid.

It lept down to suck the unconscious archer blood with it’s fangs, to rejuvenate it’s lost blood and damaged parts.

”Oh! no you don’t.” Kyle stomped his feet shooting his body like a rocket, releasing multiple of strikes to the creature. Not wanting to wait, the creature blinked again as Kyle hit nothing but air.

”Where are you...” Kyle softly muttered, gazing up he couldn’t see the creature as it’s body blended perfectly into the night. Kyle could sense the beast was circling him from top, waiting for an opportunity to strike and he too was ready for anything.

’Swoosh!’ The bat silently swept down it’s two legs arched forward, with it’s sharp claws darting front for Kyle’s head.

’Clang!’ With lightning fast movement Kyle spun his body round, blocking the attack by placing his katana in front of his head. The creature was enraged, angrily pushing Kyle backwards while trying to get a bite out from his head.

The creature red eyes sharply darting into Kyle’s eye, the bat was bewildered how he managed to resist his charm.

”That won’t work on me anymore.” Kyle smugly uttered pushing the creature up with his katana, he followed up by landing a nasty kick to the beast chest.

”Get off!” Kyle then pushed his legs off the ground into the air, reaching high amounts of feets in little time. He didn’t stop to give the bat a chance to rest, releasing series of strikes to the creature.

”Screech!!!” Black blood spilled out from the beast as it cried in pain, Kyle didn’t care he was going to kill this bat!

”Burn!” Out from Kyle palms he shot out two dark flames, directly hitting the creature’s skin. He also slashed frequently at the creature’s body, drawing out huge amount of black blood as it screamed in pain.

’Bam.’ Using the momentum to spin his body in midair, he furiously kicked downwards to the beast chest, sending the creature crashing down to the floor hard.

”You think you can just take what you want because what? You’re strong.” He softly said scraping the tip of the katana to the floor, his eyes glowing red. The creature still in flames squirmed in pain, it tried blinking away but something was wrong. It felt as if it’s heartbeat was slowing down as one of it’s leg were numb, he didn’t know wgat type of strange weapon kyle held but it knew it was dangerous.

”Look at you. You’re just like any of us.”

”Screech!” The bat tried controlling Kyle’s blood with it’s ability but nothing was happening, annoyed the bat charged forward with rage. Calmly gripping his katana tightly, he sidestepped avoiding the rampaging bat.

’Slash’ slash!’ With two swift and precise strike, Kyle katana cleanly cut both of the creature leg making it fall to the floor. The bat struggled to crawl away from Kyle, it’s wings were already torn to the point it couldn’t fly anymore.

Black blood continuously gushed out from the creature’s leg and arms, dying the floor with black blood. Slowly walking forward, Kyle stood over the creature’s body unable to attack staring with an indifferent expression.

”You’re time to die is now.” Kyle said in a deep voice, pointing the katana to the beast eyes. The bat’s body trembled looking into Kyle’s eye, a cold feeling washing over it’s body as it stared into this ominous alien eyes.

Raising his hand up the katana descended fast downwards to the head of the bat, the air around suddenly became ice cold as the katana was brought downwards. His hands then abruptly stopped, just a few inches away from the creature’s head.

”You don’t deserve a quick death. No.. am going to make your death as painful as possible.” He slowly uttered, a demented grin forming on his lips. Without wasting time, he began chopping out pieces of flesh from the creature’s body piece by piece.

Activating dark flames also adding to the already burning flames increasing the pain, the cold blood effect did well in freezing the beast blood killing it slowly.

”Screech! screech!! screech!!!” Echoes of loud painful screams echoed throughout the maze, as Kyle butchered this bat body into chunks of meat. He was so focused chopping the bat, that he was unaware of the crowd loud frenzy of screams and cheers.

Falcon looking at him had a soft smile planted on her lips, before she finally passed out from blood loss.
