CronoOver 23 Chapter 23

-On his fingers, razor-sharp nails, perfectly polished and ready to put down his enemy. The first one that entered the ring was Red Cat.

-And on the opposite side of him, a muscular man with a build like that of a Thank, wearing red boxer shorts, His left hand had "Bear" tattooed on it and on his hands a pair of boxing gloves. Bear followed and entered closely after him, meeting each other face to face at the center.

"Are you ready, little p.u.s.s.y cat?"

-With his Russian extent, Bear was quite serious and ready to kill Red Cat! Just like the rest of the people in the audience, he didn't like his personality very much either.

"Just don't spill your stuffing, Teddy bedy!"

"Your one annoying Mother f.u.c.ker!"

-Red Cat, Rank B

-Bear, Rank B

"Gladiators fight!"

-Strait from the start Bear didn't hesitate to throw the first hit. He went directly with a Straight right, followed with a barrage of jabs!

-Red Car, avoided the Strat right aimed at his face, but when the barrage of punches came, that was another story.

-He moved, left and right, but Bear's jabs were just to fast, and he got hit multiple times right in the torso! And right afterward followed with a stomach blow!

"Guah!!!"

"Haha, what's wrong, little Kat!"

-Red Cat got really annoyed by Bear's words and instead of falling on his back, he grabbed hold of Bear's hand and jumped in the air, scratched the back of his head, and left five scratch marks which cut his head.

"Meaw, now you have something to remember me by!"

"You little..."

-Filled with anger, Bear went for the second set of attacks in which he kept consistently throwing jabs while moving his upper body to avoid any possible attack Red Cat coud throw at him.

"uh, huhu! We're getting feisty now, Bring it, big boy!"

-Avoiding his Jabs as much as possible, Red Cat knew he couldn't do it forever so he got his claws even more out from his fingers and started weirdly moving his hands in the air.

What is he doing?

-At first, it would seem as he was just scratching the air aimlessly, trying to protect himself, but he was carefully and precisely scratching the parts where Bear had hit him at that moment and...

"What, how?"

-That's right, every time Bear had hit Red Cat, he blocked his attack as well as torr his gloves little by little until they were of no use to him anymore.

"Now that, my friend, is some high-quality leather!"

"You...Are...Really...p.i.s.sing...Me...OFF!"

-Now angrier then ever before, Bear's killing intent raised thro the roof!

"Oh, This doesn't look good!"

"If you didn't know, Kat, I'm a real sore Loser!"

-Unlike before, Bear just stood there, not moving an inch from where he was standing.

What is he...

-It didn't even take a second, and Red Cat Was on his way straight towards the wall.

"Killer Left!"

-Now standing where Red Cat stood before, Bear's hand was double his size and it's color had also changed from the skin color to a more Brown-ish one!

"What...The...h.e.l.l was that!"

"Bear" My Ability that is... as a boxer I don't really like to use it, because it's against the rules of professional boxing. but this ain't a normal match!"

Well s.h.i.+t, that may have broken some of my bones.

-Red Cat, with some effort, managed to pull himself out from the wall and land on all four's, just like a cat.

"I guess, my cat sense doesn't work that well anymore, I'll just have to rely on my eye's then!"

"No need, you won't last that long!"

-His threat, aimed at Red Cat was a serious one. Bear was p.i.s.sed off and had enough of him.

"Well, we'll see about that!"

-Instead of being scared or intimidated, Red Cat was completely calm and cool minded. Of course, that's becouse he's a skilled and self trained killer who believed that with a calm mind you coud get out of any situation.

"Now it's my turn to use some special attack don't you think?"

-He put his hand behind his back and grabbed the two guns that were attached to his belt!

"DIE!"

-While running sideways, he was shooting the two pistols at Bear, who was jumping all over the ring avoiding and doing the best he coud to dodge the bullets coming at him.

"What a cowardly move, bringing weapons in a fistfight!"

"Covertly?, I'm here to win, not to play around!"

"Don't you have any pride?"

"Pride? Meow, I lost all of it years ago!"

"Then I won't feel guilty when I smash you to pieces!"

-Bear, stopped dodging the bullets and started running towards Red Cat at full speed! and as he did, his body started changing. Fur started appearing on his skin, and his body became double the size of what it previously was, while taking the shape of a Brown Bear!

"So this is why you're called Bear!"

-Running at him, this ginormous beast of an animal, and still, red Cat was not faced by him.

"Guess I'll just step my game up a little!"

-He pushed the b.u.t.ton on the side of the gun to relode the ammo, after which he added a sort of long adjustment on the barrel head to increase the speed of the bullets.

"Let's see how you like this!"

Specal led bullets!

-Bear coming ever so closer, Red Cat used these new bullets and fired them straight towards Bear.

"Bang, Bang, Bang, Meow!"

-The bullets flew, cutting the air and making ther way towards Bear, who was still pus.h.i.+ng forward. When finally making contact they just bounced off of him!

"Huh!"

-The Led bullets had no effect on bear what so ever, to him it felt like someone threw a piece of paper onto him. He coud steel feel it, but it wasn't the kind of pain it would make him react to it, just like a mosquito bite!

-That was becouse Bear's Ability allowed him to change one part or all of him into that of a Brown bear. When he did that his physical strength increased and his skin hardened tenfold.

"Hahaha, your little bullets have no effect, Kat!"

"d.a.m.n it!"

-Still not losing his cool, Red Cat reloaded his ammo once again, but this time he went all out!

"Let's try these!"

"To slow Cat!"

-Before He knew it Bear was already in front of him, and his speed didn't Decrease. He was running at the speed of a train and didn't intend to stop!

"You're not getting me with the same move Twice!"

-He Threw one of his Reloudead pistols in the air, jumped, and just like an acrobat, he did a spin in the air while grabbing hold of Bear's nose.

"Hastalavista Tedy!"

"Bang!"

-He fired at point-blank range, and this time it left a mart!

"Ahhhhh, you d.a.m.n Cat!"

-The bullet Red Cat fired didn't manage to penetrate Bears scull, but it did leave a dint on his skin.

"Meaw!" -A truly sad meow from Red Cat. You just knew he was saying: "I'm f.u.c.ked!"

-He lost his balance and fell to the ground, as Bear stood up on his lest two legs, while still being in his animal form.

-The gun he previously threw in the air came down and landed straight in the palm of his hand like he knew it was going to happen and waited for it.

"Huh, take this!"

-He started shooting, one bullet after another until he's gun was finally empty. Bear who just stood there and took the hits, now had a smirk on his muzzle!

"Just like a mosquito bite!"

-He pulled his giant bear palm in the air and with pure force slammed it at Red Cat!

"Huh, to slow big guy!"

-Red cat managed to avoid the hit in the last second and jumped backward.

"Is that so?"

-What seemed like a miracle escape was actually only what Red Cat thought, in reality, he did actually avoid his palm, but the tail that was part of his costume didn't!

-Bear's palm was stuck to the ground with Red Cats tail in between them.

"Remind me, why the h.e.l.l do I even have that?"

-Still being in the air, He tried to use the guns he was holding on to, to shoot the palm that was trapping him, and get free. But Bear bad a different idea, he used his other hand and slammed him straight into the ground.

"Guah!!!"

"Now, let's finish this."

-He slowly reverted back to his human form, and headed toward Red Cat, who was laying there with some of his bones broken from that hit.

"T...that...hurt like h.e.l.l!"

-he's sight was all fuzzily, only things he saw were dots and shapes.

-When his vision cleared those shapes and dots became Bear, who was standing in front of him with a look of serious pride.

-He took hold of Red Cat with both of his arms, and squeezed with everything he had!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

-Red Cat scream at the top of his longs from all the pain he felt. He kicked and tried to get out, but it was useless!

"Crack!"

-With that sound echoing thro the arena, He finally stopped struggling, as All of the bones in his upper body just got broken!

-After hearing that noise, Bear let go of him and places him gently and carefully on the ground, trying to not make him fall. His center of gravity broken, that was impossible and his body started falling to the side.

"Hastalavista Kat!"

-In an instant Bear's fist made contact with Red Cats face! But that wasn't the only one. When the right one did its job next was the left one and when that was finished, the right one went again, alternating before RedCcat's head didn't go flying straight off, and hitting the ground.

-The silence that covered the entire Colosseum was broken as Bear put his fist's in the air and proudly letting our a "Roooooor" Stating that he was the stronger fighter this round!

"And that's it, The final match of round one is now over and Bear wins!!!"

-Just like before the audience watching cheered as loud as they coud for Bear's win.

"Woooooo!!!"

"Good fight, Bear!"

"Ripping his head off, nice!"

-The reason he did that wasn't becouse He wanted to show off, it was becouse he wanted to show Rex that he was on the same level as him, killing his opponent the same way as him!

-That was becouse in the second round and the semifinals, they would be opponents!

-Semifinals:

-Archer (B) Vs Eyepatch (C)

-Bear (B) Vs Rex (B)

-In the waiting room...

"Huh, Is he picking a fight?"

"Now, with round one over, we'll take a fifteen-minute break to let you trash go do you stuff, and everything you need to do!"

-The fifteen-minute break was well needed, for the viewers as well as the fighters. For them to continue fighting with maximum effort there was an infirmary where they coud treat their wounds to some degree.

-And those who weren't so lucky to leave the ring alive were thrown into the "Pit" where they would become food for wild animals.

"Wellp. this stray ain't gonna be anyone's food tonight!"

-Whether you consider it luck or not, Red Cat's head as well as his broken bones, everything that killed him was healed. And he looked even better than when he started the fight.

"You're still alive?"

"Don't be disappointed, be proud, you managed to kill me once!"

-Red Cat, Ability "Cat's Mania" He possesses all abilities that a cat has, like night vision, sharp claws, cat sense and the ability of nine lives, from which he already used up three!

"But d.a.m.n, this was a sure way to enter the Mafia, now I'll have to find another one!"

"Whatever, you still lost, which means I'm stronger!"

"Yeah, sure, let's hope you don't run into me again, becouse if you do... You're not getting away with just a couple of scratches!"

"IS THAT A THREAT?"

"Take it as you wish, adieu!"

-With the first round of the tournament finally coming to a close, the partic.i.p.ants wade their way towards the infirmary.

-And behind the scenes, even more, darkness was making its moves.

"So what do you think, do any of them look promising?" -Asked Dwarfy!

-In a dark box-shaped Room, in front of a big television there was a person sitting in a chair, the man Dwarfy was addressing smoked a Cuban cigar, and with a big smile on his face answered him...

"Yes!"

-The Television that had the pictures of the four semifinalists was in front of him, and when he answered Dwarfy's question, Archer's picture was the only one on the screen, covering it entirely.

"Yes, he will be fun to break!"

"Then let's hope he wins!"

-Only a big smile was seen on that man's face as he smoked his cigar, and looked at Archer's picture with menacing eyes.

"Destroying young people's spirit is my favorite thing to do!"

-Vella Martines, One of the three Mafia Dons, (A) Rank!

"Let's hope for a good Second round!"
