Artificial 7: Genesis Requiem

Chapter 47: Aftermath

Seth's POV:

"Hey, Clay! Remember that old sword you gave me back in Regalia? Your sword sucks and my wife made a better version!"
My taunt sends Clay over the edge as he roars at us.
Clay and I engaged in a sword fight while the guy on my left who claims to be my son fights like Spiderman.
With the Fusion Saber fused with Yagito and Anakanos Barack,
I could still run at lightning speed and dimension cut at the same time.

I destroyed a few buildings with my dimension cut just trying to kill Clay,
but my son nailed him in mid-air with a kick,
so this fight turned into me setting Clay up for my son to beat up.
Clay turned up the heat and super heated his broadsword up to point the steel turned bright red,
then he went on the counter offensive, keeping my sin at a distance while I engaged in that sword fight.
We slashed, stabbed, blocked, parried, punched, kicked,
and kneed each other.

I put the Fusion Saber on my back and started using Shadow Wind to create wind blades of shadows,
and Clay slashes through each one,
and my son comes in with a flurry of Shadow Flame punches and kicks.
Clay turns the tables and gut punches him with a fire coated fist,
then grabs his leg and spins,
then throws him into me!
My boy was the first to be grabbed as Clay grabbed him by his hair,
then threw him into the air and kicked him in the gut into several buildings!

Clay goes to split my head,
but I blocked horizontally,
slid his blade down to my cross guard, then threw his blade to the side long enough for me to decapitate him!
His headless body grabs me by the neck and lifts me into the air as his skull regenerates,
followed by his flaming red eyes and horns!
He opens his mouth,
and breath attacks me so hard.
My healing factor lasts long enough for him to stop before kicking out!
I had 2nd,
possibly 3rd degree burns as my body goes out from being on fire,
and he drops me to the ground!

Clay leans over as I stare into his pure red eyes with yellow pupils.
"First, I'm going to kill that brat that claims to be your son, then I'm going to record the screams and cries of your daughter, begging for her daddy, and when she has no more tears left to shed and she's given up on living. Only then will I kill her. And finally, that smoking hot woman that threw me and broke my sword. I'm going to enjoy myself first before finishing her off."
I struggled,
but it felt like my bones were crumbling under the pressure of just moving!
It hurt like hell just to move!

I tried with all my might,
but no amount of willpower to keep fighting could force my healing factor to heal or get my body off the ground!
I was quite litterally at my limit!
Once again,
I found myself powerless in this situation.
I am unable to save my kids,
unable to save my family,
unable to save myself even.

Right as I thought my world was ending, I felt the boy claiming to be my son's aura as it erupted and destroyed a couple of buildings,
possibly a few city blocks. "RAAAAAAAAAAAA! I WILL NOT LET YOU HURT MY FAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMIIIILLLLLLYYYY!!!"
The boy roars as he flies at Clay in black and purple dragon scale armor and wings.
Clay gets punched,
and he sprouts large bat like wings as Clay starts hacking and slashing,
but the boy keeps dodging,
tanking the hit head on with his dragon scales or grabs it like Selena's sword catching technique.

I struggled even more and gritted my teeth, fighting through the pain as I watched the fight continue on in the air. After several minutes of trying,
I finally got onto my feet and saw the severity of my burns.
My skin was blood red in the arms,
but my shoulder bone was visible as I trudged over to a car to lean against.
The boy was punching and kicking Clay faster and harder than Clay could regenerate,
then grabbed his arm,
front flips several times that he looked like a spinning wheel and finally slamed Clay head first into the pavement!
