Fallen Stars
Mystery Fifty
Unleash The Beast
Wrath's metamorphosis is grotesque, his body contorting into a living nightmare. Jagged, blood-stained fangs erupt from his maw, werewolf-like fur thickens across his skin, eyes glowing like a predator’s. The sight of an eagle. His left hand warps into razor-sharp badger claws, *Bzzt* while his right twists, cracking and reforming into a massive, crushing lobster claw. His back splits, producing dragon-like wings. A venomous scorpion tail slashes the air behind him. Muscles bulge, infused with the brutal strength of a lion. An inhuman roar that shakes the ground. The creature stands, a grotesque terror, eyes burning with rage! *Bzzt*
Fear: …
DOOM tilts his head.
DOOM: A chimera, eh…
Wrath: **Wrath Style - Zenith Mode; Sky Splitter**
[Wrath Style, a name he copied from DOOM-]
Wrath: Not copied.
[Ahem. Wrath Style, a new style Wrath created solely on his own! Combining his electricity and Deimos Khaimera karate. His Voltage System is constantly minimally locked at four hundred thousand volts! But it can be amplified at any time!]
Wrath’s electricity begins sparking a new color!
[Something happened in this exact instant. Almost as if a “path” opened up. Wrath sees himself soaring through the dark and gloomy void of space, resembling M’s place. Spotting red electricity sparking in a nebula in front of him, blitzing to the nebula, he grabs the new colored electricity and is shocked by it, but he smirks. A pattern of dots is seen behind him, with the first already lit. Then, the blue electricity spreads to the next dot and ignites. Lighting up a new red color.]
The storm rages around the three. Wrath’s power surge is sent out! Splitting the storm! It changes from a blue color to a bright new red!!
Heavy red lightning scatters around the skies and rains down on DOOM and Fear!!
DOOM is struck and shakes in agony!! Fear conjures her wind to send the lightning elsewhere, but it continues raining down on her!!
DOOM breathing heavily-
Wrath: What’s wrong, DOOM?! Can’t handle it?!
Wrath disappears and appears by DOOM! A lobster claw full of red electricity bashes DOOM on the side of the head, sending him soaring!!
He’s caught by a Fear wind pocket and lands safely on the ground.
Fear: You alright?
DOOM: Of course I am.
Wrath comes soaring swiftly, directing at DOOM!! Seeing Wrath skyrocketing toward him, DOOM winds up a brutal attack.
DOOM: **DOOM Style - DOOMsday**
DOOM’s blood floods around him, it begins to send out hundreds of unavoidable scythes-formed attacks at the oncoming Wrath!!
Wrath, having no concern, still blasts at DOOM, fully focused eyes widening!! The blood scythes cut through Wrath, slicing his arm and legs! His injuries heal immediately!!
Wrath strikes at DOOM!
Wrath: **Wrath Style - Blitzkrieg**
Wrath sends out numerous punches and kicks at DOOM, but every time he does, the blood beneath him pulls up and forms a wall protecting DOOM.Wrath speeds up, but the blood reacts even faster, effectively stonewalling Wrath.
DOOM: Getting close like this is idiotic.
DOOM points his sword forward.
DOOM: **DOOM Style - DOOMsday; Hour to Midnight**
The blood from the ground roots up! All the blood DOOM has spread across the battlefield spawns up! Fountains of blood target Wrath, forming massive strands and coming at him viciously!
Fear gathers her wind and sends it behind the strands to speed it up!
Fear: Don’t forget that I’m here too!
DOOM does a lunge, forward-piercing attack, and stabs Wrath through the chest!!
Wrath is stuck in place as the blood approaches him! He grins, grabbing DOOM’s sword.
The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.
Wrath: This is what I wanted, you tampon. Now you’re stuck with me.
DOOM goes to pull his sword out of Wrath, but he can feel himself being pulled closer to Wrath. His metal armor is attracted to him.
Wrath’s red electricity surges brightly, and the electrifying chills ring across the area.
Wrath: **Wrath Style - E-Bomb**
A colossal sphere of crackling electricity erupts from Wrath's chest, engulfing him and DOOM in a devastating surge of power. DOOM is barely able to see a glimpse of blinding light before the expanding sphere of electricity overwhelms both!!
DOOM: You’re trying to take me out with you?!
Fear screeches out to DOOM!
Fear: DOOM!!!
The sphere of electricity forms a deep crater around DOOM and Wrath before a powerful explosion erupts, sending shockwaves and debris flying!!
The shockwaves power spikes the fountains of blood and jolts them, shocking them in place, falling to the ground, dying out.
Fear: (Who would’ve thought he would pull a suicide bomber tactic on us? Not a bad strategy.)
**In Midas
Off the train**
Carina, Rosa, and Baidam are coming off the train. They see droves of people and creatures pushing each other, running to the tracks! Guards yelling out “Keep a straight line! We’ll all be getting out of here!”
Mani: Ma’am. Lady Carina, we’re evacuating the region. There’s a fight going on that’s consuming the residences.
Carina: Yes, we were already informed.
The three look on and see a raging storm, with red lightning sporadically flashing through it.
Carina: Alright, clear out the district. We’ll be heading in.
Mani: What?! Didn’t you hear me?!
Baidam: We did. We’re going in.
Mani: *gulp* God bless you, ladies.
Carina and her friends rush through the crowd.
Carina: We have to hurry, whoever IX and X are fighting, it doesn’t look good for them.
Rosa and Baidam: Ok!
Mani: Hold on. What about this drunk guy??
Carina: Leave him! He’ll catch up to us!
They hop on their respective beasts and dash to the battlefield!
**Wrath’s Location**
The bomb crater dust settles, Wrath is standing, healed, but he’s breathing heavily. Though his wounds are gone, exhaustion looms over him. Fatigue from the form weighing him down. DOOM stands firmly, the aftereffect of the attack coursing through him like a shock. Despite the lingering anguish, he remains perfectly fine, unmoved and unshaken.Wrath grins and is surprised DOOM is still alive.
Fear is thunderstruck at seeing DOOM still alive.
Fear: How the hell did you survive that?!
Catching DOOM off guard, a red lightning creature phases through his body with electrifying force. The creature surges through him like a storm incarnate, leaving a trail of raw power in its wake!
Wrath: Nice, Zeus!
DOOM’s anger ignites, staring down Moros (DOOM’s beast). Moros takes the initiative and attacks Zeus, their fight continues.
DOOM draws his crimson bank card, sifting through his inventory before unleashing the DOOMslayer—a sword reduced to its ominous hilt.
DOOM’s intensity grows…
Fear: (He’s really injured, I’ve never seen DOOM like this. Oh right, DOOM has endurance, he can survive this…but Wrath, he has regen, he’ll keep healing from all these attacks. In the long run he’ll…)
DOOM forms a single sharp blood creation line on the hilt, solidifying, perfectly replicating his first blade. Harnessing a new crimson blade.
DOOM: **DOOM Style - DOOMslayer**
DOOM spews sinister red cosmos from his body, imbuing it into his swords. Wrath can see a slight glimpse of the cosmic motion taking place. DOOM’s energy becomes hostile.
Wrath (concerned): (He’s a dual wielder…?)
DOOM: What? You thought you were the only one who could evolve in this world, mutt?
Wrath: Mutt?!
Wrath reacts, but the strain weighs on his body.
Wrath: (This form puts too much stress on my body. I can’t be in it for long. I have to end this quickly.)
Moros forms two new glowing red eyes, able to react to everything differently and quicker. Its claws get sharper, and horns sprout from its head.
DOOM: I see you have a formless beast as well…
Wrath side eyes Zeus, clashing with Moros and Phobos.
Wrath: …Yeah.
DOOM: And you plan on being king of all the formless beasts?
Wrath: Yeah.
DOOM: …
Wrath: But you’ve asked me a lot of what I’m going to do, what are you after, DOOM?
DOOM: …Being king means nothing to me. I’m after an Olympic Regalia.
Wrath: ?!
DOOM: And of course, the illustrious title “God of War”.
Wrath: Yaha. That’s an extreme goal.
DOOM: Almost like being King of the World.
Wrath: And I know which regalia you’re after. A swordsman? Covered in red? Easy to figure out.
DOOM: …
Wrath: If I managed to obtain it, would you join my side if I offered it to you as a gift?
DOOM: Never. You’d have to beat me ten times in order for me to join you.
Wrath (grins): I’ll hold you to that.
Fear: You two can stop being chippy now. We have a fight to finish.
Wrath (side eye): (Forgot about her…)
DOOM: Don’t interf-
Fear: Shut up and do the finisher, DOOM!
DOOM: …
DOOM & Fear: **DOOM Tempest Style - Hail Bloody Mary; EF10**
Wrath: Damn, she has you in check, DOOM.
Both furious, DOOM thrusts his arms outward, commanding the blood from the battlefield to surge and swirl, merging with the howling winds. The air crackles with raw energy as a massive tornado spirals to life, its violent winds tearing through the landscape at over five hundred mph, a force of pure destruction unleashed!!
DOOM propels himself into the tornado, his dual swords gleaming with fury.
Wrath: I’m not afraid of your little clouds.
The immense tornado spits out DOOM! He descends like a war god, blades raised high, ready to cleave the very earth beneath him!!
Wrath swiftly dodges the incoming strikes, just as DOOM slams into the ground with crushing force. The impact gouges deep rifts into the Mir, cutting an X shape, sending debris flying as the ground trembles beneath the weight of DOOM's assault!
DOOM is yanked back into the raging tornado, only to explode from its depths like a bat out of hell, forcing Wrath to make another maneuver!
DOOM is pulled back into the storm, repeating the cycle, as buildings are shredded into debris that swirls violently through the air, while Wrath weaves through the chaos, dodging the winds, DOOM, and the wreckage surrounding him.
In the sky, the chaotic winds wake up the golden-haired teen.
???: Geez…I was told this country never experienced natural disasters…I’m giving that travel agent a bad review.
On the ground, Carina and her friends arrive near the area. They see a child staring at the ongoing storm, and the crimson swordsman flying in and out of the storm, attacking a beast!!
Carina: What are you doing, kid?! You have to get out of here!
The kid is trembling. He raises his arm, shaking in fear, pointing toward the storm.
Regulus: Can you…can you help my friend…he was attacked by those two…
They look ahead, witnessing the crimson swordsman being absorbed by the storm and being sent out. They tell the kid to leave the area and they approach the eye of the storm.
Inside of the storm, Fear sends a message to DOOM.
Fear: Who are they?
DOOM: I don’t know, but they must be strong to walk into this storm.
Carina spots the monstrosity…
Rosa: Should we help this thing? What if it attacked first?
Wrath glances at the newly arrived group, and their formless beasts…
DOOM comes flying in!! Slashing at Wrath! But he dodges again! He gets sucked back into the storm.
Carina: …
Baidam: I know who that was…that was Doom from the Apex Predators. Without a doubt, he started this fight.
DOOM: **DOOM Style - DOOMsday; Hour to Midnight**
DOOM sends out an all powerful attack at Baidam and her friends!! The three of them form a combined barrier of sand, plants and ice!!
Behind the barrier, after the attack disperses, Carina speaks to Wrath.
Carina: Yeah, we have no idea who you are, but we are for sure on your side for this fight.
In the storm…
Fear: Why would you do that?! Now we have to fight four of them!
DOOM: She must say the name correctly!!
Fear: Are you still on about that??
DOOM: Catch a throatful from the fire vocal. With ash and molten glass like Eyjafjallajökull!!
Fear’s eyes narrowing, utterly baffled by what she just heard. Her mouth opens slightly, but no words form, her brain scrambling to make sense of the bizarre reference. A long pause hangs in the air as Fear's brow furrows deeper in sheer confusion.
Fear: …I swear I will be the one to kill you someday…
As Rosa and Baidam cautiously circle Wrath, a flicker of terror glimmers in their eyes. Carina is unconcerned.
Wrath: I’m Wrath, don’t be frightened, this is just a temporary form, it’ll end soon, just like this fight.
Carina: Understood.
Wrath: (This form… I’m barely holding on...)
His vision falters, blurring in and out of focus.
Wrath: (I must finish this—before it finishes me.)
And out of nowhere – a radiant light pierces through the storm, blinding both groups with its overwhelming brilliance, shimmering like a beacon in the chaos.
Wrath: (Draco??)
[A Hopeful Light Enters The Field!
Draco Shows Up Right On Time?!]
