[] "You're going to need a thicker hide for what's coming next."
Pushing yourself away from her, you ended up raising your fists as she smiled your way. Her scales vanished while you stared at her from afar. She righted her jaw as her wounds healed up quite cleanly. The flames around the two of you intensified as the rain grew stronger.
You narrowed your gaze as you got ready, "You're going to need a thicker hide for what's coming next."
"Can't wait to see," The Envoy replied as she dashed towards you.
Raising her leg, she aimed for your head with her kick before you weaved back and had your fist be caught by her palm. You both slammed your shoulders together and staggered before you turned to deliver a kick straight into her stomach. You moved on to swing at her but she blocked your strike and twisted your outstretched arm to pull you in for a backhand.
The Envoy struck your side before succeeding in landing a kick on your shoulder. Her nun outfit swayed with every move she made while you met her blows with your own. The points of contact between you two erupted in shockwaves as you both worked to overwhelm the other.
Redirecting her strike to your abdomen to the side, you stepped forward to slam your elbow into her guard before breaking it with your palm. You flipped back to kick her straight up her chin and launch her into the air. You landed on your feet before you grabbed her by her dress and slammed her into the ground.
She grabbed you by the front of your clothes and punched you before throwing you beside her. The two of you got up and slammed your kicks into one another before you caught her fist as she drove her knee into your body.
Punching her across her face, you slammed your head against her before you struck her jaw with an uppercut. You turned and kicked her across the face just as she snarled and swung at you.
Her fist found your stomach and face before she grabbed your shoulders to knee your head. Blocking her blow to you left, you returned the punch as you ended up rocking her with a haymaker. Standing her ground, she countered with her own until the two of you exchanged punches before you both kicked each other away.
"You're pathetic," the Envoy hissed as she caught herself and swung at you.
You blocked her blow and struck her across her face. You went for your right hook as she blocked high, only to land the blow into her stomach. You kicked her back into a counter where you kneed her stomach and punched her once more.
The Envoy smacked you across the face with her elbow before raising her leg which you caught. Pushing her against the counter, you swung at her once more and delivered a visceral punch which outright dislocated her jaw.
You swung at her then but the Envoy weaved beneath your strike to thrust her palm into your side before striking your side. Her palm struck your chin before a foot kicked you back from her.
The Envoy fixed her jaw while you held your stomach.
"Tick tock little Doll!" The Snake hissed as you swung at her with an uppercut.
"You're not getting away!" You snapped as she tried raising her knee while you slammed your palm down on her leg.
"There's not happy ending for you!" The Envoy roared as she punched you across the face, "I'll make sure of it!"
Grabbing her by her clothes you slammed her into the glass wall of the burning suite and tried kicking her. Your foot shattered the glass once she sidestepped and grabbed your arm to slam you into the next glass wall. Pieces of glimmering glass fell on the two of you before you turned and swung her over your body, slamming her into the floor.
You both got up as you drove your knee into her face.
"You scumbag!" You roared as she blocked your strike.
"It's already too late!" The Envoy snapped as she drove her fist into your cheek. Your endured and tackled her into the burning television set on the far end of the room.
Fire blazed around the two of you as you punched her hard. She kneed you in the gut before you crushed her face with your skull. You punched her once, twice, three times before she slammed her own head against yours.
You staggered as she grabbed your clothes and threw you outside through the glass. You landed by the edge of a pool as the Envoy bled and chuckled as she raised her arms.
"I
will be the strongest Magical Girl there is!" The Envoy laughed as you got up and wiped the blood from your lips, "And the first achievement of my Legend will be killing you!"
"As if I'd let you," you snarled as you grit your teeth.
The Envoy howled as she threw a fast one on you. You stopped her with a jab or your own, keeping her in her tracks. You landed two more blows onto her chest as blood left her lips. Rain fell on your back as you smashed your fists against her skull and lifted her up to drive her face into your knee.
She was left bloodied as she ended up on the ground. The Envoy swept the floor with her legs before shooting a viper from her hand. You burned it as she swung a metal chair at you, breaking it on impact and forcing you on your knee.
"Your body, Yuri's body, even the Blue Queen's, they're just going to be another skin I'll have to shed to reach the pinnacle," the Envoy roared as she grabbed you by the neck and threw you across the pool.
You cleared the pool and slammed into a railing, looking over the lightless city behind you. The Envoy jumped and landed before you and swung at you. Pushing off the rails, you moved to meet her. Weaving past her fist, you ended up with your own punch striking her chest.
The force behind your blow split the waters not just on the pool but also the air. You then went under her arm and dashed past her. Swinging with a hook, you smashed her face with it and forced her to stagger.
"You're not going to save anyone," the Envoy wheezed as you punched her across her face into the railing.
You pinned her down before punching her once, twice each hammering blow bending the steel railing which you held her. Your fist started to crack and break with every blow as the Envoy tried rising up but you simply drove your knee into her liver.
Blood left her mouth as you punched her across her face. You winded up in a backhand to dislocate her jaw but the Envoy fought back, catching your wrist as her eyes turned to slits, her lips curling into a bloody smile.
Your body began to glow and seep with grief until your arm was on fire. You burned her just as much you were burned in turn, ending with you smacking her across her face. You hammered her with another vicious blow before you grabbed her by her shoulder as you lifted up her limp body.
You swung her behind you to which she soon caught her footing. However the Envoy soon found herself in the path of your next blow.
"You're done!" You declared as you hammered one more blow onto her face which sent her sliding back.
The Envoy gasped as blood left her lips upon her falling down her knees.
"I'm not... Done yet," the Envoy rasped as she smiled gleefully at you, "So long as I can stand... I'll keep coming back. So long as I keep coming back... I can try again. One day... I'll kill you. I'll have you. All so I could claim my prize."
You glared at her as the rain beat down your back.
"I can keep spinning you on my palm. Until I win. Even now, I've won. I've won long before I came here... The Princess should be waking up... And she'll reunite with her beloved Queen," the Envoy chuckled as she got to her feet, "I'll just play you all... Just as I played Yuri into creating you."
She giggled to herself as she held her side.
You watched as she staggered towards you and attacked.
She mustered one more last burst of strength as she delivered a punch straight for your face. Her fist slammed into your skull.
The Envoy's grin wavered as she found that you endured the blow. Blood leaked down your face.
"You... Call that a Punch?" You growled as you felt boiling rage bubble within you.
You landed your next blow into her face. The Envoy was blown to the ground as you looked down on her. She tried getting up but you already stomped over her way and kicked her down with your heel.
A raspy laugh left her lips as you punched her face. Her bloody lips grew redder as you punched her a second time.
SMACK.
SMACK.
SMACK.
SMACK.
Your fists grew bloody as you let out a shaky breath as the Envoy let out a shaky breath. You looked down her and grabbed her by the head and punched her so hard her head bounced off the ground beneath her.
Even then she still laughed at you...
"Too bad... Everything you've sacrificed for... Will be for naught," the Envoy sneered as she met your gaze, "Go on. Kill me. Show me just how much of a monster you really are. Kill me."
You felt your vision blurring as your grief began to leave your body. Your hands could corrupt her. You'll stop her from reviving. You could do it.
You reached down towards her as she smiled cruelly.
"Yukina, don't," a voice spoke from behind you. You turned your gaze to see Kaguya out of breath as she looked at you, "Let
us judge her. You can stop now. Please..."
You looked back down at the Envoy for a moment before returning to Kaguya.
"Yuri's waking up," she said just as the Envoy began laughing beneath you.
"Heh... Hehehehehehe... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Closure
[] Corrupt the Envoy. Kill her. That way, she'll never come back. She'll never hurt anyone again.
[] Don't kill her. Killing... Is wrong. You've hurt her enough. No matter how angry you are, you're not a monster.
[] Break her instead. You'll keep her alive... But you'll break her body and make it her prison.
