Scott Pligrim vs The World x Reader - Scott Pilgrim and the True Hero - Volume 3

Battling The Vegan Stereotype (Chapter 18)

And then Scott slammed his bass on Todd's face. Hey, that rhymed!

"I think it's time to end this volume." Scott said as he slung his bass over his shoulder and prepared to play.

"Oh, it's on, Pilgrim. You're going down..." Todd grimaced as he made his own bass levitate toward him. "...Vegan style."

- Bass Battle: Fight! -

Todd began with an incredible bass solo, playing a tune that was almost impossible to match. His bass literally began to glow with every note he played.

"Uh-oh." Wallace said, and you saw that Scott was quite worried, as well.

"That's right, Pilgrim... I actually know how to play bass!" Todd smirked as he also shot another beam of green energy at Scott.

Scott was sent skidding along the ground, and crashed onto the stage. "If you're so good at bass, why are you still zapping me with psychic powers, you chode?" Scott questioned in anger.

"Envy, are you alright?" You asked after you got up, running over to her.

"Don't touch me!" Envy shouted, pushing you back.

"Okay, okay." You raised your arms up and backed off.

"I hate you." Envy grumbled. "...but, thanks."

"Anytime." You smiled. "Now, back to business."

You ran over to help Scott up and take on Todd. However, it seemed you weren't the only one helping. "We'll also help even the odds a little, Pilgrim!" Luke exclaimed as he and his boys joined.

"Huh? The Boys? And Crash? How?" Scott questioned.

"Our constant rehearsing finally paid off in the form of an advanced technique." Luke began explaining. "We now have the ability to manipulate pure soundwaves through hard work and willpower alone!"

"Are you sure you're not just Sound Conduits?" You asked. "I could use the addition to my arsenal."

"I don't know, maybe!" Luke answered.

"You and your boys are nothing to me!" Todd scoffed. as he began to play his bass again, shooting multiple green energy beams at the band.

"Steady, boys!" Luke commanded.

"I'll help!" You said as you made a neon wall that merged with the sound shield, protecting the boys and you from Todd's attacks.

"We can turn it back on him! Get ready to make your move, Pilgrim!" Luke ordered.

"Go get 'em, Scott!" You cheered, giving him a thumbs up.

Scott nodded, rushing right at Todd. "Now!" Luke exclaimed as he, the boys, and you deflected the beam right back at Todd.

Todd smirked, as he managed to reflect the beam with his own bass. Hitting Scott with it and making the sound shield begin to fail. "It's no good! His bass power is too powerful!" Luke exclaimed before everyone was sent flying backward.

"The reverb is hurting my soul!" An audience member groaned.

"He tossed 'em aside like a used nappy! All hail Tood Ingram!" Another exclaimed.

"Alright. Enough." You said, charging up a neon beam. "Bring it."

"My pleasure." Todd snarked, playing his bass and firing a beam of vegan energy toward you as you fired your neon beam.

- Beam Clash! Push it Back! -

A beam of green and a beam of blue and purple clashed. Both sides were pushing it with all they got, and the exchange went back and forward again and again. The impact of these energies colliding sent shockwaves of power all around the palace.
