Fight

Space prison barge

In a dark depths of space, a lone prison barge is seen floating aimlessly in the dark void of stars.

Inside

TOOM!!!

The door bursts open and Kirito, the Blackswordsman jumps into the corridor.

The entire barge is barely litted by blue emitting light, leaving a huge mass of space in total darkness.

A cold shiver ran down Kirito's spine and he whispers nervously to himself.

Kirito: Damn. Why did I pick this map in the first place? This place gives me the chills.

Kirito steps foot into the corridor, exploring the ship's entire structure.

As Kirito enters the darkness of the barge, he is unaware of a shadowy figure lurking in the dark.

Kirito steps into a room and what he saw causes his eyes to widen.

Bodies of fallen prisoners and guards were littered across the floor.

As Kirito studies one of the bodies, he notices a huge massive hole on the chest.

Kirito narrows his eyes and he looks around vigilently.

Something or someone is in the barge.

Kirito lifts up his arms, wrapping his fingers around the hilt of his sword.

Sweat pours down his forehead and Kirito shifts his eyes around.

All of a sudden, something crashes onto the ground behind him.

CRASH!!!!

Kirito spun around and he saw a huge muscular brute growling at him.

Zeratul: Your life has been forfeit!

Zeratul picks up a damaged security drone and he throws it towards Kirito.

SCHINNG!!!

Kirito draws out Elucidator and he swung it across.

SLASH!!!!

The security drone splits into two and all of a sudden, Zeratul sprints towards Kirito at lightning quick speed.

Kirito lifts up his sword, shielding himself just as Zeratul throws a punch.

BAM!!!

Kirito: Ngn!

Kirito grunts as he was sent back by the attack.

Zeratul draws out his warp blade, the green energy emitting in the darkness.

Zeratul swung his blade at Kirito, forcing the Blackswordsman onto the defensive.

CLANG!!! CLANG!!!

Kirito and Zeraltu spun around in the hallway, exchanging blows with each other.

As Kirito swung his sword, Zeraltu blocks the attack with his warp blade before throwing a punch.

WHACK!!!

The punch struck Kirito right in the cheek, sending him tumbling back.

Zeratul smirks underneath his mask and he storms towards Kirito.

Kirito pushes himself up and he jumps up before throwing an attack.

Kirito: Flash Hit!!!

BAM!!!

The strike struck Zeratul right in the face, causing him to stagger back.

Kirito draws out his blade and he slashes Zeraltu with his sword.

SLASH!!!

Zeratul narrows his eyes and he swung his warp blade.

However, Kirito spun his sword around, creating a Spinning Shield out of his technique.

Kirito: Spinning Shield!!

WHACK!!!

Zeratul: Nn!

Zeratul growls as he recoils back from the attack.

As Kirito got into a defensive stance, Zeratul nods approvingly and he compliments Kirito.

Zeratul: Impressive. Why not join my people child?

Kirito shook his head and he declines.

Kirito: I won't join you, you monster.

Zeratul narrows his eyes and he growls at Kirito menacingly.

Zeratul: You must be in a hurry to die.

Schnnn...

Zeratul suddenly vanishes from sight, causing Kirito to jump back and look around.

Kirito narrows his eyes and he raises his sword, wary of Zeratul's presence.

WHACK!!!

Something struck Kirito by the back, causing him to grunt in agony.

Kirito: Argh!!!

WHACK!!!

Kirito: Argh!!!

Kirito grunts and he jumps back, trying to flee from Zeratul.

Kirito could hear Zeratul's mocking laughter as he jumps through the barge.

Zeratul deactivates his invisibility and he sprints after Kirito.

Zeratul: Come back you coward!

BOOM!!!!

Zeratul bursts through a wall and he looks around.

Zeratul found himself staring into a huge barren cafeteria.

Zeratul draws out his warp blade and he stalks around, searching for his opponent.

Zeratul: You would dare run child?

As Zetatul searches, just then, je saw a figure standing up.

Zeratul narrows his eyes and he sprints forward before swinging his warp blade.

SLASH!!!!

However, his eyes widens upon laying eyes on the figure.

It was a just random corpse!

As Zeratul looks around, all of a sudden, something began flying towards him at lightning quick speed.

Zeratul spun around and he raises his shield.

VOOM!!! BOING!!

The projectile bounces off uselessly.

Zeratul looks down and his eyes widens in shock.

The projectile is a pick!

Zeratul compliments as he heard footsteps approaching him.

Zeratul: A pick. An interesting choice for a weapon.

Kirito draws out Dark Repulser, holding it with one hand while Elucidator in the other.

Kirito got into a fighting stance and he said.

Kirito: Let's see how you handle this!

Both Kirito and Zeratul races forward and both their blades clashes.

CLANG!!!!

Zeratul raises his shield just as Kirito throws his attack.

Kirito: Starburst Stream!!!

BSHHH!!!!

Both Kirito and Zeratul were blasted back by the attack.

Kirito charges up his arm blast and he opens fire at Zeratul.

PSH! PSH! PSH!

Zeratul raises his shield, racing towards Kirito.

Kirito jumps back just as Zeratul throws a punch.

Kirito readies both his swords and he shouts.

Kirito: The Eclipse!!!!

Kirito charges up his attack and he launches himsekf forward.

However, Zeratul still has a trick up his sleeve.

Just as Kirito closes in, Zeratul charges up his energy and he launches it towards Kirito.

As the blast struck Kirito, all of a sudden, the blast exploded into a huge energy surge, causing Kirito to scream in agony.

Kirito: AAAHHHHHH!!!!

Zeratul sprints forward and he throws his Shadow Strike.

Zeratul: You're finished!

BAM!!!!!

The attack struck Kirito hard, sending Kirito flying back.

CRASH!!!!

Kirito: Argh!!!!

Kirito grunts as he crashes through a wall.

Zeratul narrows his eyes and he follows suit.

The alien stares down as Kirito struggles to rise, weakly attempting to push himself up.

Zeratul charges up another Shadow Strike and he shouts.

Zeratul: This ends now!!!

Zeratul screams as he throws his attack, striking Kirito hard in the chest.

SPLAT!!!!

Blood spews onto the floor as Kirito's entire body fell limp.

CLANG!!!! CLANG!!!!

Both swords fell from Kirito's hands as Kirito fell plop onto the floor.

PLOP!!!

Zeratul stares down at Kirito's body before turning around, walking away.

As Zeratul heads towards the exit, he turns back and he said

Zeratul: It's too bad you were a foe because if it were any other circumstances, you would have made a fine pupil.

Zeratul enters a escape pod where the pod door slides shut before jettisoning him into space.
