Cinder's Power

Gold met green as Battery swung a golden sword of energy out, clashing with Green Wolf's knife. "So, you're just stealing the Victorian's moves now? Don't you think a sword made of light is a little too on the nose?" Green Wolf smirked.

"In all fairness, I was using a sword way before her." The hero grumbled. "She copied my style."

"Oh, so you do know the number one hero?"

Battery made a face. "I shouldn't have said that. Oh well, guess I'll just kill you."

Green Wolf lazily spun his knife and swung it. Battery threw his arm out, causing a golden shield of light to swirl from his wrist and block the strike. It still shoved him back and left dozens of large cracks across the barrier, but it held strong.

"Energy-based people like you or the Victorian always tick me off." Green Wolf pulled a second blade out from his sleeve. It was longer than his others and filled with a jagged razor-sharp edge. "Kinetic energy doesn't mesh well with other forms of created energy, and you guys can always find ways to get past my barrier. Of course, I bet even someone like you would have trouble blocking constant near-death strikes."

Battery smirked as he entered a boxing stance and got rid of his sword, which dissolved away. "Trust me. When it comes to death, I've been pretty lucky. Besides, I still have a few tricks up my sleeve. I'm going to take you down and save those kids."

Green Wolf threw his knife towards Battery, but the man punched it out of midair. The villain swung his jagged blade, sending debris flying as the ground was torn to bits, but Battery jumped out of the way of the slash. The parking lot was split in two from the swing, and cars were thrown high into the air from the force of the attack.

Battery zoomed out of the way as they dropped, skating across the ground with super speed. As he got distance from Green Wolf, he blasted out a beam of energy from his finger. "Bang!"

Green Wolf dodged past the attack, but with a twitch of a finger, Battery caused the beam to suddenly curve like a snake and circle back around, smashing into the back of the Zoo leader and causing Green Wolf to howl as his nerves ignited.

As Green Wolf was being shocked by the laser, Battery held his other arm out. Golden chains, the same kind the Victorian used to bind her enemies, fired out of the man's palm and began to wrap around the villain's body. Battery twisted his body, the chain picking Green Wolf up and smashing the man through one of the cars that was still in the air.

Green Wolf grunted as the golden chains squeezed down on his gut, and with a tug from Battery, he as well as the car he was half way through was smashed into the ground hard enough to cause the vehicle to explode. Green Wolf slowly climbed out of the wreckage, ignoring the flames as he dusted himself off.

"You know, that was kind of a dick move. You knew that wouldn't hurt me, right? So you just went and ruined whoever owned this car." The villain taunted.

"You already totaled the car with one of your slashes." Battery snorted. "Though I will be the first to admit the owner won't be happy with me either." He pulled his hand back, causing the chain to wrap around Green Wolf's ankle. "I'll just have to make sure I avenge that car by taking you out."

Battery held onto the chains with one hand, pulling Green Wolf towards him, and with his other hand, he smashed it into the villain's face, throwing them back. The chain caught as the villain was thrown far enough, and he tugged on it again, bringing Green Wolf back towards his fist, ready to do it all over again.

Before Battery could land another attack, the chains became empty as Green Wolf vanished in a loud 'popping' sound. The man appeared behind Battery and stabbed out with his knife, tearing the flesh from the hero's arm when Battery tried to block.
