The mother goddess and the demigod son of electricity stood on both ends of the dias. The Thunderbawks watched in one corner, while Chloe and her friends, though a bit smokey and charted, prepared to cheer Vinnie on. Vinnie watched as his mother strutted in her lightning pumps around the dias. He hastily treaded parallel to her in his boots.
A wide smirk formed on Electra's heavily made up face. She sang mischievously in her deep voice. "Eenie meeny miney molt, strike a person with a bolt! Which one of your friends should I give a crack of my old lightning whip!"
"Hey..." Vinnie muttered. "Youse said ou was coming for me. Not them."
Electras moved her painted finger tips towards Monica and fired straight at her. A flash brightened the whole area. Monica screamed, but when the flash ended, it revealed she was only screaming in fear. Vinnie held his hands in front of her. They had turned into his ravenous Killa watt eels who wiggled furiously crackling with electricity.
"Oh where oh where did my bolt go?" Electra asked playfully.
Vinnie held his Eely hands out at Electra. "I betcha didn't know dis but my Killa watt eels can eat lightning!"
Electra raised a penciled eyebrow on her otherwise frozen face.
"And not only dat," Vinnie boasted. "Dey can..."
There was a loud crackle and a blinding flash. Electricity shot from Vinnie's eels straight at his mother. She raised her hands quickly before she was struck. When the flash disapaited, Electra stood huffing and panting with smoke raising from her hands. "Well that's a shocker!" she said, making the fifth millionth electric pun. "I had no idea my boy had such vitality. It seems a mutated demigod is even stronger than a regular one."
"Dats right!" Vinnie said, puffing out his pinstripe suit clad chest. "Maybe think twice before you come from me and my friends. Mom, I'll shoot you from the sky to prove my love to this wonderous chica!"
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
Monica smiled wryly. A red blush adorning her face. "Either it's because I got struck by lightning earlier, but mi corazon is just fluttering right now."
Vinnie laughed. "Dats all I needed to hear to take down da worst mother ever."
He let out a roar and charged at Electra. Balls of electricity fired from his eel hands' mouths and everytime they impacted on Electra's own hands, she slid backwards from the sheer amount of energy being blasted at her.
"What's wrong!" Vinnie taunted his goddess mother. "Lightning is clearly striking more den once. In fact, we might need ta eliminate that cliche all togetha."
He screamed "Lightning will strike the same object to infinity when it has a passion."
Electra was completely silent. On a smirk curled on her lips. She drew closer and closer to the statue that had been tarnished by Vinnie's lightning. At long last, Vinnie reached her, but he had run entirely out of his electrified balls of lightning.
"Is that it?" Electra asked with a guffaw. "You sure don't have your momma's endurance."
"Do...yer worst..." Vinnie muttered, trying to catch his breath.
"Oh," Electra said. "Even my worst is better than your best. So I think this is gonna do more than hurt. You will truly feel 800 million volts through your body. You might not even taste anything again other than strange metallic taste. Your hair will be permanantly permed and you'll never have to go to a hair salon again. What do you say to that?"
Vinnie kept his eyes wide open as Electra formed a finger gun with her hands. She pointed it straight at his head. Vinnie did not even try to blink. "There's only one thing I say, mother. And that is: Amor! Love makes even lightning feel like a love tap!"
With a loud crackle, Electra blasted Vinnie and he felt every inch of his body fill with electricity. All of his mates cried as his body flew backwards and landed in a heap on top of the dias. "Vinnie!" Monica screamed in horror.
Chloe, Ramone and Monica all crawled over to him. It seemed he had truly lost the battle.
"Let this be a lesson to everyone who doesn't worship me!" Electra shouted as she walked back in her pumps over to the dias. "I am omnipotent! I am truly the most fabulous, beautiful and seductive goddess in the sea. And I am willing to kill my own son to prove it."
Laura and Abacab crawled over to Vinnie too. Everyone gathered around his body. Either unconscious or dead, it was unknown. Monica timidly reached out to his wrist. Tears were spilling down her cheeks.
"He..." She said. "Has no pulse."
