CHAPTER 4: BATTLE FOR MY LIFE
“Oh Glitch before you start your fight, 'Nova' left you his collection of his music and his record player, now back to your fight,”
After Star Swirls comment, r-3d began charging at me once more readying his fists. Charging my magic, I closed my eyes to gather all the elements in the air for the blast, but as I opened my eyes to find r-3d, he is no-where to be seen. When I looked up to the top of the room two metallic hooves crash down into my face with a loud THUD. His hooves made contact with my face I quickly focused my magic to my hooves and face, to help soften his impact. When I felt that he had came to a complete stop, I grabbed him and focused on charging my attack once more.
“TARGET HAS A HOLD ON UNIT R-3D, MOTORS IN LEGS SEEM TO HAVE MALFUNCTIONED DUE TO UNKNOWN SPELL MAKING CONTACT WITH MOTORS. ERROR ERROR!”
“SHUT UP YOU STUPID HUNK OF JUNK!” I shouted at the robot as I released a powerful wave of magic out of my horn, sending r-3d into the air without his legs. As I flurry of sparks emitted from r-3d leg sockets.
“R-3D 'UNINTELLIGBLE' HAS TAKEN MASSIVE DAMAGE. SHUTING DOWN,” said r-3d as he soared through the air with his engine quieting, and his deep crimson eyes slowly dimming to a deep black void. Dropping his legs I looked at the one with 0ct4v on its chest.
“It seems that it's my turn now doesn't it?” remarked the gray coated and black mane robot known as 0ct4v. She walked up to me.
“So I heard you enjoy classical music?”
“Yes I do. But I have also been creating my own music genre also,”
“Really now?” 0ct4v commented as she, or what I presumed as a she, tilted her head, her black mane floating lazily with her head.
“Yes I have.”
“Mind if I listen to this new music genre you tell me about?”
“Hmmm, I think it would be best if I showed you, but, before I do, I have a question.”
“Ask away young colt,”
“Aren't you programmed to exterminate who ever you're ordered to?” I asked with a questioning stare as I lowered my guard slightly.
“Yes, but I'm also programmed to take interest in music also-,”
“YEA! CAUSE OF 0CT4V HERE, I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN CREATED! WELL WITH SOME HELP FROM YOU ALSO!”
“What does sh-,”
I felt a tight cold grip around my neck and I grasped at it, attempting to loosen its grip.
“Sorry to be so abrupt, but I have neglected my duties for long enough,” as she said this, I felt tiny little cords wrap around my neck and lift me into the air, as even more came out of her free hand.
“I might as well tell you how my fighting style is and what V1NL3 is talking about,” she said as she slammed me into a wall and onto the floor, knocking the wind out of me.
“As you already know, I am 0CT4V, my fighting is based off of using cords controlled by electric and magnetic pulses to move them and form them as I please,” she said with cords flowing out of her right hand into a treble clef.
“And I have been studying you new music genre for a while now, and may I say, it's quite innovative of you,” she stated in a matter-of-fact way, brushing her mane back,
“pity, I was hoping you'd have more fight...” her voice becoming slow and indistinguishable. As the world slowly started to fade, darkness invading all sides of my vision, I focused my magic on emitting the new spell slowly as waves of different frequencies being played.
“So this is it? That's all you've got? Seem R-3d was flawed to be de-,”
Before she could finish her sentence I blasted a powerful wave of sound through the cords around my neck, rupturing her right hand and all the cords to a pathetic metallic stub of sparkling wires. Falling to the floor gasping for air I heard a soft voice in my ear.
“Do you want to live Glitch?” The voice asked.
“Y-yes,” I managed to cough out still gasping for air.
“Then let me take control,”
“O-okay.”
As the voice chuckled, I felt my magic swirling around me and my vision suddenly cleared, but something was off. I wasn't myself, I felt darkness and hatred over-take my body. The dark force made my body stand up and I could see my reflection in one of the dark tinted windows. My body was being surrounded by a deep lavender hue, the same shade as 0ct4v's eyes, and my eyes then slowly began glowing a blackish purple while my irises turned a dull purple.
“Well it seems you've shown your true potential... At least your dark power,” remarked 0ct4v, as the cords form a hand once more and her eyes glowed brighter.
“Heh, you don't even know 0ct4v,” with that I began to use the same sound frequency magic to surround my body, and as I opened my hand I focused the sound waves, emitting a constant steady beat that started to make the windows vibrate. As her cords started to dance their way to me, I smiled evilly as the ball of sound-waves began to pulse, dance and flux around and with each other.
“You want to see my full potential correct?”
“More than anything Glitch,” she said with a confident smile.
“You know it's sad that I'm going to have to do this,” I said grimacing as I pointed my palm which was holding the ball of frequencies, at her.
“I enjoyed your company while it lasted 0ct4v,”
“And yours also Glitch,” she said smiling as her cords started to wrap around my legs
“Goodbye,” with that I released the devastating wave of electronic sound-waves barreling towards 0ct4v, slowly tearing her to shreds in the matter of seconds.
“WHOAAAAHOO HOO! THAT. WAS. AWESOME!” exclaimed the white robot with blue hair.
“Are you always this loud?”
“EEYUP!”
“So are we going to fight?”
“AWWWW YEAH! PAARRRRRTAAAY!” She yelled charging at me.
And dang was she fast! I could barely charge up a spell strong enough to make her stumble! She would throw a punch and immediately after she would throw a kick at me and knock me off my feet. But each time she would let me get back up, it was strange, as if she was playing with me...
“Enough messing around,” I called to her as I charged a basic magical orb on my horn and slowly transferred it to my hand.
“YA SURE LITTLE GUY? I WON'T HOLD BACK,” she called back to me, a slight of uncertainty in her voice.
“Yea!” I called back, hell bent on getting in some payback, charging a high frequency spell and moving it to my other hand. Without a word she came charging at me, quickly storing the two magical spells I had charging in my horn she punched me so hard that I went flying into the black tinted window behind me cracking it. AS I slowly slid down the wall and slumped to the floor, I coughed up a small bit of blood. V1nl3 said something, I didn't quite catch, what I said but I did hear, what she said after she seemed to get a response.
“AWWW YEAH PARTYYY IS STILL GOIN'!” she wooed as she picked me up by the hind leg and threw me into another window causing my dark aura to fade, leaving my eyes a dark purple.
“Enough,” I growled as I brought both spells into one hand as I lunged at her, placing the had which contained both spells I released them, sending her flying into the corner. Staring into the smoke the two blue orbs still sat there bright as day, the soft whirring of her engine still marking that she was there. As I stood there a strange teal box, gray from the darkness, and in the middle of that teal box was a blue ring. As the ring began to grow brighter, the dust and smoke inside the room began to swirl towards the center of the ring, and right when the smoke cleared her chest, which should be gone from the pulse I gave her was revealing what seemed to be a massive speaker!
“LET'S DROP THIS SHIT!” She exclaimed as a massive teal beam with small blue beams spun around it. As the beam collided with my belly I was sent flying through the window when everything faded to black, hello darkness.... make them stop.....
