| Blinded by the shrapnel from Metal Mans helicopter chop to the ground, the vampire could not see the monsoon of fury that barreled towards him. Joker gained complete vision just in time to watch the biggest wave he had ever seen come crashing down on him. At the center of the wave hidden beneath the undertow was the glistening metal of his armored foe. The insane bastard flew at him fist first moving as if his body was unhindered by the massive flow of water. The vampire lord took the brunt of the blow and was sent flying back through the massive ocean of water like a launched torpedo. Jokers body was spit out of the murky depths of his would be watery grave and instinctively stopped itself in mid air. He simply hung there as the beads of water fell from his motionless body and disturbed the now calm ocean surface below. A faint glow began to cover him as the blood from his shattered jaw tainted the liquid element from Metal Mans attack. Heavy was the fog in his head and gone was the mental barriers he had set up long ago to keep his darker half in check. It was only now after that final attack, that the break of dawn shined upon the alter ego of the great vampire king. The madman of his dreams....his nightmare....his curse awakened and roared to life with in his body. Slowly his head tilted up. A faint growl escaped the clenched bite of the vampire as his eyes became engulfed in flame. He now knew his enemy...the path of truth could not be hidden from his eyes. And the madman would conquer where his other half had failed. Through the water the vampires eyes, now burning an azure colored flame saw through his enemies armor. - Two layers- The metallic fool was clever to have a second layer of armor protecting what few human organs still resided beneath his mechanizations. With a nearly clairvoyant sight, Joker saw the red stripping that covered certain areas of his enemies body. He looked to the helmet and did something that his lighter ego did not. He studied its architecture. Immediately he realized that the design comprised the peripheral vision of the wearer. And that the model was one similar to a helmet of an enemy he once knew. That warrior was able to easily analyze battle strategies and weaknesses of any opponent. - So that’s how the bastard formulated such counters - Well the vampire lord knew now what to do. His own gifted eyes allowed him to read his opponent just as easily. And with the proper data now stored he lifted his body upright and closed his eyes. An amazing invisible force released from his body as he stretched his mind into the water, expanding to its full limit. With great concentration and a powerful release of energy he atomized the water beneath him leaving his enemy to fall dead weight into the beach floor. Joker shot downward at critical speed and smashed into his opponent like a spear. Laying over his enemy in a full guard mount, the crazed warrior shouted the magic word for truth. VERITAS !!! Instantly the helmet vanished revealing a face of pure anger and insanity. Glaring white teeth, a horribly crooked nose and raged thin hair which did little to compliment his psychotic blue eyes. As the sudden shock of what the vampire lord just did kept him from defending, Joker wasted no time in his attack. He reached his right hand back and pulled material from the molecules in the air. A bright flash of light flared for a moment and then.....a toaster....an actual toaster materialized in Jokers hand. In one swift motion he brought the kitchen utensil, cord flailing behind it, down on to the exposed face of a stunned Metal Man. The vampire lords movements were a blur as he bloodied the meaty face of his enemy, maliciously laughing like an insane clown through out the process. Finally before his spell wore off he tossed the toaster to the side and shoved both his index and forefinger (three stooges style) into his enemies eyes.m As he backed away Metal Mans helmet returned once more to protect his bloddied face. He smiled and bobbed his back like a boozey wile taking the stance of a drunken boxing master. “ Your move sugar tits “ Last edited by Joker; 04-27-2008 at 01:05 AM. |
