Shadows of our end - KDA x Male Reader (Original)

Act 2 - 041

"Memory."

Violence stands to be physically the strongest nightmare among my kin. Strong enough to be able to stand against Despair if he ever wanted to but I can not speak about the chances of his success but he'd fair better than any other.

He has an annoying regenerative ability, his two arms close to his chest were sealed together to enforce Modesty upon his Violence.

Dread, I would suggest leaving in a way that he can't tail you. If that isn't possible then stand your ground until I have found everyone and can create an escape for you.

"Take your time," I breathe out. I glance at Fury whose gaze has settled on Violence. "Two of you want me dead, now would be the perfect time to decide if you think Azreal is worse than that," I gesture at the Nightmare approaching me.

She clicks her tongue. "Then I'll play along, (Y/N). We kill it and then I maybe I am wounded enough for you to escape and I can pretend that I didn't see you."

I scoff at her suggestion. "That's if you don't die fighting him, besides, it needs to touch me first."

"Claws like that? I doubt you'd even be able to survive a hit so best keep yourself clear from him, but watch your back... one slip up and I'll be lodging my blade into your spine and leave you to die to that."

I send Nox away and focus all of my attention on Violence.

"You should scamper while you can, little shadow," he flexes his muscles with a low hiss, his voice is low and ghastly.

I ask him, "Surprised to see me here again?"

He doesn't answer. I lower myself in a crouched position and place my hand against the floor to let my shadow pool around the area in hopes of swallowing all three of us whole within the darkness that I command; allowing me to see their every move and move freely around the arena that I made for us three.

Fury steps forward to lunge but her body travels towards me with the blade's edge trying to find my body. I launch my shadow at her to send her off her course but she just managed to transition the blade to block the attack.

She lands with her back turned towards Violence. "Is that how it is."

Violence reaches her with his menacing walk. She spun around driving the edge of the blade into his gut only for him to snap to her like the bite of a snake. His claws drove through her torso but she still managed to cut through his lower abdomen.

Lifting her, he flicks his hands to the side to toss her corpse aside. "Frail."

Her blade starts to glow, pulsing with a faint red energy. That must mean a part of her is contained within that blade and the only way to kill the body is to kill the soul... that means finding a way of destroying that blade.

I lift myself back to my feet to see him still approaching me. The muscles in his shoulders and legs flex and I see the attack before it can land. The shadows are kicked up like mud from underneath him where I could see the ground for a split second before the barrier mended itself. Violence closed the distance with a gust of air following his approach.

I've launched the shadow into him to block his attack while I create distance between the two of us. Retaliating with my attack I grip his wrists to try and restrain him to create an opening for me.

Launching a lance of darkness I warp behind it to ram it deep into its chest but at that moment it rips through my bindings and his claws dig into my side as he swats me out of the air like a fly. I land on my shoulder and then my feet as I skid across the shadows.
