(Demi)God of war

Chapter 3 (sorry no cool font i will fix)

"Ok so tell me something..." Adonis said talking to the bartender. She was a thin woman with piercings and tattoos all over her body. Her hair was long and coiled and pulled back into a messy ponytail. Her name-tag ended with an a but Adonis couldn't see it because it was covered by messy paint stained overalls.

"What's up?" She asked handing one sweaty overweight man a drink and then walking towards Adonis.

"What are alts, or genes." Adonis asked looking at the girl with long hair who just took out another man that looked like he had smoke coming out his mouth.

The bartender looked Adonis up and down. "You're about to fight tonight's champion and you don't even know what an alt is?"

"If I did, do you think I would be sitting here asking you this question." Adonis looked at the woman.

"Ok, fine. I'll give you the deets just stay here and let me get these orders out." She walked away pouring different kinds of amber liquid into glasses.

"Ok, so it all started with this video that came out around two or three years ago." The woman started, calling over the blaring rock music and the thuds of a woman with short hair and bronze skin in the ring hitting the ground.

"These two kids with masks on teleporting around the place and fighting. One red and one yellow," She walked over to a board that had explicit fliers and concert times on them. She took a newspaper scrap of the wall and plopped it down onto the table. It showed a man with a black and yellow costume on and a mask covering his eyes like a Ninja Turtle or Robin.
"That's Blink. He tired to save us from what he thought was a bomb but it was really just a-"

"Look ma'am." Adonis cut her off. "This sounds a lot like a history lesson and that's not really what I asked for see, I just need to know how to beat that woman over there in a fight." He pointed.

"Oof, good luck with that buddy." The woman turned around and continued serving people.

"Hey please ma'am I'm starving, I need the money!" He called after her but to no avail.

He was yanked back by two burly men and dragged into the ring that a new woman was being dragged out of.

"Ok, ladies and (mostly) gentlemen!" The announcer called from in a room above the ground. "Who's ready to watch another massacre?!"

Everyone in the room erupted into loud hoots and hollers.

"Lets introduce our new opponent!" The announcer called. "What is your name, boy?"

"Adonis." Adonis said looking around the caged ring.

"ADONIS FOLKS!" The announcer chuckled as boos came from the crowd. "Now Adonis, this lovely lady has been the champion all day and night. Winner takes home $25,000 but the way it's looking and how its been going tonight, you won't be getting any richer any time soon." The announcer erupted into laughter again. "Are you sure you wanna do this kid?" The announcer sounded almost concerned.

"I'm hungry." Adonis replied.

"HE'S HUNGRY FOLKS!!!" The announcer screamed loudly as everyone started laughing. "What's your gene kid?" The announcer asked calming down.

"I am going to be the next god of war." Adonis said proudly. The bartender giggled and shook her head.

More laughter. So much laughter.

"Well, that's fitting kid." The announcer said. "NOW INTRODUCING, FOR THE FINAL FIGHT OF THE NIGHT. MEDUSA!!" The announcer called loudly.

Adonis was extremely confused. He looked around trying to find his aunt with snakes for hair anywhere.

"LET THE FINAL FIGHT OF THE NIGHT... BEGIN!" And with those final words from the announcer the fight began.

The girl's long greasy hair began to grow and coil up into long tendril like strands of hair. She whipped back her head and her hair stabbed at Adonis' head, but he wasn't there. Everyone gasped, as the fight was usually over by now. The bartender stopped cleaning dishes and looked in awe.

"Excuse me a moment I'm looking for someone." Adonis said from behind the woman.

The woman quickly turned again letting out a flurry of hair whips. Adonis dodged left, then left again, then right , then back. One whip came barreling towards Adonis and he ducked under it and popped back up in front of the woman.

"I asked you nicely to wait. I won't ask you again." Adonis said sternly. He placed two fingers onto the chest of the woman and pushed her back causing her to stumble slightly.

The woman caught her balance and let out a shrill scream. All of her hair tendrils bolted toward Adonis and then they were cut. Adonis held a skinny black rapier that he had summoned right then and there. The woman grew furious and grew her hair back instantly. She lifted herself off the ground using her hair and galloped towards him quickly. She started stabbing at him quickly but Adonis would just dodge and cut.

"I can't believe this folks..." The announcer said.

The woman fell onto the ground due to her having no hair left to lift herself up. She grew it back and then coiled it against a wall launching herself at him with her hair pointed out in a stabbing position. Adonis' rapier wrapped around his arm and quickly morphed into a gauntlet. He grabbed a fistful of her hair and then slammed her down. She lied on the ground groaning and holding her stomach.

"Are..." Adonis started. "Are you ok?" He asked reluctantly. She didn't respond.

"The winner...  w-what was your name?" The announcer asked.

"Adonis." Adonis replied looking at the girl as her hair started retracting.
