The VENOM Squad : Emperor Scorpion ft. Monitor Lizard

Chapter 27

"You better listen to me if y'all want to live," Harley states as he jumps off from the back of his giant friend. He may sound to be joking but he is the strategist of their squad, and if he says to listen to him, they shall listen to him. And with an inaudible sound, his feet land on the ground as if he weighs as light as a feather.

"Do not separate from the group as possible as you can, got that?" Emperor Scorpion reminds the team. As early as the situation is, they must have the upper hand to make things quick and everything shall be in their favor. Well, that would only be possible if they overpower their squad enemy.

"Roger that!" The four members respond and with that, they are now face to face with the SABER squad. Their eyes are pure black, a sign that they truly are under control by the fallen angel, Alice, and they hold no hint of their past human life. No single scratch has marked them, they are probably well kept during their imprisonment in the realm of the abyssal demons with the sole purpose of using them against the warriors of the Land of Dawn. A wise and devious move, indeed.

Layla raises her malefic gun with both hands, her right hand holding onto the trigger and the other supports the front of her weapon for better aim.

"Malefic bomb," she states, her voice is hoarse and deep, sounding like a demon. With no hesitation at all, she pulls the trigger and from her gun comes out a ball of destruction, looking like a shining crystal, directed at the VENOM squad who manage to dodge it by spreading out. Layla's shot causes a rather huge explosion, killing the other demons. Yet it isn't strong enough to permanently keep the VENOM away from each other. They once again join together with Gusion on the lead and his daggers are shot towards the SABER. If one of them is shot, it could be the end for that target.

A smirk curves on the edge of his lips when he catches his first target, Saber the Regulator of the team as well as the squad leader, when his dagger has hit him, even though it is just a mere scratch.  Mastering light elements and speed and combat, Gusion lunges at Saber in lightning speed, activating his Sword spike skill wherein he could appear behind the target that his dagger had left a mark on. Such skill of his could not be stopped in any way, thus, if not wise enough, it would be a dead end.

Appearing behind the automated Saber, it could have been an advantage for Gusion to execute a fatal attack yet Saber is fast enough to shift his position, facing him forward, and swings his sword towards him instead. Instead of dodging the attack, Gusion tightens his grip on his two daggers held at each of his hands and crosses them together, blocking Saber's sword.
Saber pushes his sword forward, their weapons screeching against each other as he hovers over the VENOM leader. Gusion grits his teeth for if they remain at such position, he would receive a serious wound.

And to break such advantage, Gusion lifts his foot to land a kick on the side of his enemy yet Saber pushes himself away, dodging his attack and keeping their distance far enough.

"You have to do better than that," Saber states, his voice is the same as Layla's, deep and demon-like.

"As you wish," is the the simple response of the Emperor Scorpion. He must admit, Saber's skills did not weaken, instead he became much better than before.

But it is no reason for Gusion to feel down. It is a reason for him to enjoy their fight and test their strength to see just how good they are to become a medium of  Nero Ton's obsession.

Despite the distance between them, Saber releases two whirling short swords directly towards Gusion who does not consider it as a serious attack for he simply blocks them with his daggers. But instead of falling on the ground, the short swords circulate around Saber as if creating a barrier. He charges forward in just a blink of an eye which the Emperor Scorpion has not expected. His unguarded self is a weakness that Saber has taken advantage of, knocking Gusion into the air. Saber tightens his grip on his weapon, swinging it upwards, directed at him and targeting his throat that would end his life in just one hit.
