Ragnarok

Reality Check

(It's good to be back)

The audience both god and human alike are watching with baited breathe as they waited for the fighters to be begin. Which is why everyone released a breathe then Lu Bu started to calmly walk through the town, halberd lowered as she slowly but surely approached her opponent. Hercules seeing his opponent approach him with out fear grinned before racing forward to meet her with club raised intending to make her defeat as glorious and honorable as possible.

Which is why the god was taken off guard completely when Lu Bu's first strike was not a slash from her halberd but instead a kick straight to the god's groin. Doubling over in pain Hercules was unable to stop the leg sweep from knocking him off balance nor the double slashes from the flying general resulting in blood to burst from the god's chest in an X formation before Lu Bu used the kinetic energy and grabbed the the god's face and slammed him down through a fruit stand and into the ground before raising her halberd ready to cut the god's head off only to have to guard against a blow from the god's club sending her flying back and skid across the street before finally stoping around 7 meters away.

"And Hercules narrowly avoids a quick end by decapitation and sends the general flying back!" Heimdall announced to the roaring approval of the humans at seeing the god on the run already none more so than Lu Bu's strategist Chen Gong. 'My liege, everyone is here just as we were whenever you were on the battlefield.' Hr thought before tears started to spill from his eyes. 'To think, I'd get to witness you in battle again!' Here he could no longer hold back the tears. 'I've never been so happy!' He cried.

"Ha, Lu Bu's army is as loud as ever!" Zang Fei laughed as he turned back to the battle before letting up an entire barrel of alcohol and emptying in a second. "But I can't blame em!" He laughed "Nothing beats watching humans beat down the gods while drinking good booze!" He laughed getting a hum from his companion. "Well said but still to bestow upon her the title of greatest warrior is a bit much don't you think?" Liu Bei questioned before turning to Guan Yu who's shoulders Zang had been setting on. "A title like that would be more fitting for you wouldn't it?" Liu asked as Guan titled his head in consideration. "If we were taking in terms of military strategy. However in terms of military prowess I have to admit the best in our time has to be Lu Bu!" The giant of a man declared as he continued to watch the match.

Hercules by his point had recovered and smiled as he gazed down at the x shaped wound on his chest. "A fine start though I must ask why you felt the need for the kick to my groin? Honorable warriors such us as should never resort to such an underhanded tactic." Hercules lectured the warrior who almost snorted in disgust at the man's words.

'It would appear he's forgotten exactly what is on the line for humanity.' Lu Bu thought before smirking at the man. "Oh I do apologize." She said sarcasm dripping of every word. "I just got a little to excited there for a moment." She continued this time not being able to hold back the snort when she saw the god smile and nod in understanding before continuing on and surprised everyone when she stowed her halberd onto her back.

"Tell you what, let's slow things down a bit and work our way up." Lu Bu smirked as she got into a fighting stance and the smirk only got wider when she saw the god's eyes sparkle with approval as he placed his club on the ground. "What a marvelous idea! He grinned in excitement raising both his fist above his head. "Begin whenever you're ready." He challenged with Lu Bu smirking before charging forward. Hercules smiled seeing the human approach him saw that she raised her left leg to go for a kick and kick of the ground with her right leg to shot herself forward.

'"Sorry but something like that isn't going to work" Hercules told the warrior who brought his fist down to smash her into the ground only to be surprised when Lu Bu suddenly got out of her kick stance and kicked off the ground with her left leg sending her flying towards a building which she quickly bounced off of and shot towards Hercules who was still in the motion of his attack and was unable to stop Lu Bu's fist from slamming into face sending the god tumbling through the street until he finally stopped and coughed up blood.
