Colby cleared away some shoe boxes and shards from broken mirrors, and smiled, “That was quite the punch!” He said as he stood up dusting his shoulders. Isaac leapt onto the 2nd floor, and rolled up his sleeves, and got ready to attack. In which he smiled even more, “1 on 1? That is very brave, so very brave.” He said again as he licked blood that was trickling down his sleeve.

While he was distracted, Isaac attempted to land another punch on his face, but he avoided it, and countered with a punch of his own, which made him crash through the shoe store window.

“You are slow, yet your strength is admirable, compared to the past “heroes” or well, void hunters that did manage to discover who I really am.” He sighed as he slowly walked toward him, who was almost able to stand up but Colby broke off a chair leg and threw it at his arm, rendering him immobile. But a different sword managed to slice a finger from him, which caught him off guard.

“You looked at us like you could handle it, your massive ego is too dangerous.” Rayna scolded Isaac, as before he leapt onto the 2nd floor, he looked at the group with a “I’ll handle this” expression, but he wasn’t indeed not able to handle it.

“You don’t seem too strong, could it be that I was able to defeat the 2 power-houses of your group? That is quite depressing.” He mocked her, he slowly healed the sliced off finger, and smiled more maliciously. “Are you underestimating me?” She asked him, as he was starting to get on her nerves, in which he nodded.

Stolen story; please report.

She charged at him angrily, swinging with a efficient form that made Colby impressed, as most of the past void hunters who were weaker than them, had no experience with a weapon, mostly relying on guns, although guns are in fact mediocre at handling Iyas, they won’t immediately kill it, and would need around 4-10 ammunition packs to effectively kill one.

“Nice moves, you are more of an agile one aren’t ya?” He complimented as she was swiftly aiming for weak points, although Colby was already aware and just wanted to mess around, but before he landed a jab on the neck, Sakonori swooped in and bashed his head to the side.

“Nice one!” Rayna called out, as Sakonori made a proud huff, but Colby regenerated the side of his head, and attempted to kill Sakonori but Isaac intervened by ripping out the broken off chair leg from his arm and stabbing his chest with it, he proceeded to land a barrage of punches on the incapacitated Colby, before landing a final punch that sent him tumbling through the floor of the 2nd floor.

“Alright let's go! Edward and Johnathan are taking care of the fake civilians on the first floor, so let's kill him and leave!” Satoya said as he had just gotten up to the 2nd floor, wiping the blood off his mouth.

The group charged at Colby, before splitting up to lunge at him from multiple sides, but within a 2 second frame, Colby transformed into his true form, which the group caught a small glimpse of before they were lacerated by a bunch of sharp tendrils that sent Satoya and Rayna off the 2nd floor and Sakonori and Isaac were sent flying into nearby 2nd floor stores.

Johnathan leapt into the air and caught Isaac by his wrist, as he was gonna come crashing down onto one of Edward’s machinery, Johnathan set down Isaac’s unconscious body onto the 2nd floor, before he got up to crack his knuckles. “Lionel really sent us to our deaths huh?” he said, concerned as he looked at Colby’s true form.
