Angel's Ascension: Rapid Descent (Book Two)

Chapter 3: Amusement

Wall hovered above the void; it appeared transparent over the entire amusement park. People walked past them without noticing and it seemed to stretch for miles.

"I made this void just for us so I hope you don't mind dying alone here!"

He stared down at the person who removed his cloak and revealed himself to be Arch. He cracked and popped his knuckles before he tossed the cloak aside.

"That's sweet of you but I think you're just being too arrogant now, Wall. Allow me to set you in your place."

Wall summoned a sword which materialized itself entirely from the void. He pointed it straight at Arch and gave a look of disgust.

"Hah, set me in my place you say? Like when you sent her to death by that portal!?"

"You weren't there to understand the situation! Whatever he told you, it was from his own twisted and warped mind." Arch boomed and his voice echoed through the void.

He bit his lip under the pressure and a meteor shower began to rain down on Wall. He slashed through them effortlessly and the meteors exploded into small dust particles. Wall landed on the void's floor and turned his attention to Arch. Then, he flew at him and struck at the mage. His attack was blocked by a barrier that bounced him off and caused Wall to skid back. Arch quickly snapped his fingers and sparks flew into his direction that made a chain explosion.
It engulfed the entire void with electric flames as Wall protected himself from the attack with his wings and used void particles to cushion the blow. He slashed at the void with a gust of wind and made the flames die out.

"When I was just a fallen angel with no powers, you used me as research and I blindly followed your advice!" He yelled with rage "Cause I wanted some help to better myself and this is what I got!" Wall shouted and pointed to a nasty looking scar on his left eye that traveled down all the way to his chin.

He reached through the void and pulled out roller coaster carts that weren't being used. Arch kept his barrier up as Wall slung them into it and cracked the barrier.

"Look, I know you're angry about the past. I too have been troubled by it but this won't solve anything if you put innocent lives at stake!"

Arch began to clap his hands together and a wave of lava appeared to crash into Wall. He flew upward to avoid the lava and took a sledgehammer out from the void.

"I'm always reminded of the past, Arch! There's no way I can just let it go after all this time!"

Wall slammed down the barrier with full force and made it crack even more. Arch winced at this and punched at the barrier which made it shatter and shoot out fragmented shards at him. Wall held his hand out and took in all the shards that shot in his direction. The shards disappeared somewhere into the amusement park while Wall shook the void. His wings contorted outward, an orange aura of energy surrounded him, and his sword was also reshaped into a more sharpened blade.

"As an atonement for my stupidity of the past, I'll kill you quickly old friend! With these new improvements, they are far vaster now. So, allow me to give you a glimpse of it!"

Wall dove at Arch and sent particles of the void toward him. Arch covered his face from the particles and they grazed past his arms. He grabbed Wall's sword with it being just inches away from his chest. Wall tried to push the blade further in and watch it cut into his hands which bled from it. Arch struggled to push back on him and felt the blade dig deeper into his hands.

"Just accept it old man, you can't win against me with your magic!" Wall exclaimed with the blade near Arch's chest even more now "Death is welcoming you home, old man! Now submit into its embrace!"
