It was just another day in the tower. The travelers light filling us with a warmth like that of the midday sun. There were a group of guardians standing around just chatting having a laugh. These were the members of the clan which was feared by their enemies and allies alike. They were Infernal Scourge. They were all that remain after the taken queen and siva swarm teamed up to take the last of the safe zones, mainly the Tower. They had defended them all and lost many friends and family along the way. This is how close they are, even though only few remain, that they still stuck together. It was Speedy, WolfGirl, Luna, CombatWolf and Zomroid. They had just come back to rest after a patrol of the surrounding planets and moons. They were just waiting for two of the others who had yet to return. Then Speedy noticed their ships coming towards the tower. Then they heard it. They knew it was inevitable as they were the best at it. They were THE KNIGHTS OF INFERNAL SCOURGE! It was Autumn and Yves the swordmasters. They were arguing who was truly the best of the blade. "You wanna go then, right here right now?!" Autumn shouted getting right up in Yves's face. "Anytime, I would slaughter you!" Yves screamed back in retaliation. They were starting to glow and spark with an arc aura so strong that the others could feel it from the other side of the open landing area. This however was not good at all, they weren't the normal arc aura. These two were unique and powerful guardians and their aura could damage miles around. This time it was different. The glow was red. Not like that of the travelers light or siva or taken. It was an aura that emitted anger and pride and rage. Then the thing that all that knew of these two feared happened. They let of a wave of power knowing them all down but one another. They took out their Blades , at first they both took out their weakest as to show their strength. They use their taken blades. Lunge after lunge, slash after slash, neither able to land a hit on the other, dodge after dodge and block after block.They were holding back not wanting to lose with their full effort. This soon change as they went through sword after sword, arc blade after arc blade and still no progress on either end. They both had finally given up their pride and released their full power. They took out their Boltcasters. They last swords. Their signature Blades. Once out they both exploded in power nearly killing all in the radius of the blast and most of the tower and city below. Fatal injuries incurred on one another. They both seen flashes of their good times together and then the memories of all the countless battles they had against each other. This was it, their emotions came in with force, almost as if fueling there strength further.
