Elisa and Goliath stood back to back. Elisa had her gun drawn. Goliath was snarling with fangs and talons bared as his eyes glowed in fury. Their hooded enemies surrounded them, holding their sparking hammers aloft. One of them lunged at Goliath. Before Goliath could do a counter move, a handful of wedding cake smashed into the eyes of the hood, sending the attacker off balance.
"Eat cake and die!" yelled Vinnie as he zipped past on the motorcycle.
"It's the traitor!" the Quarryman yelled, wiping cake off his face. It was enough of an opening for Goliath to attack. Goliath picked the man up and threw him at one of the fires started by the Molotov cocktail. He was soon staggering around and screaming as his Quarryman robes went up in flames.
"Why is it these idiots never stop, drop and roll?" asked Elisa as she used her gun to cold cock one attacker and kicked away another.
"GOLIATH!" roared Wolf. "I will have my revenge!" The two collided in mid air, fangs and claws bared. Elisa prepared to shoot, but Wolf and Goliath were so entwined in their wrestling, she was afraid of shooting Goliath by accident.
As Yuri fought with Beatrice, Shinju grabbed her dropped Barretta. Yuri threw Beatrice to the ground and pinned her with one foot. Shinju aimed the gun at the prone woman. "Shineo, busa!" Before she could fire the gun, she was struck in the back and a jolt of electricity caused her to convulse and drop the gun as she fell to the ground. Yuri and Beatrice scrambled for the gun. Castaway lifted his hammer, intending to swing at Yuri. His hammer was stopped by a blade weilded by Kai. "You will not attack my children." he said simply, eyes glowing.
As Kai and Castaway dueled, Yuri and Beatrice continued to scramble for the gun. It slipped out of their grasp just as Shinju was coming to. She tackled Beatrice and sank her talons into her shoulders. Beatrice kicked her. Now Yuri had the gun. Beatrice tackled her. In the struggle, the gun went off. "YURI!" screamed Shinju. Panting, Yuri tried to stand. She was bleeding from a gunshot wound and staggering in pain. "HOTTOITE-AGETE!" Shinju yelled, pouncing on the masked woman. The gun scattered across the ground where Felicity picked it up. In all the confusion, she couldn't tell where the gun had come from. She saw one of the Quarrymen, the one who bragged about his exploits in 'Nam, facing off against a lavender female. She'd assist there.
Lex leaned Staghart against the magnolia tree, the same one he had proposed to him under, and removed his obi, using it to dress the wound on his arm. He was alarmed at how fast the blood seeped through. /Please be OK, please be OK..../ Lex mentally repeated. /Jesus, Buddha, Allah, Great Pumpkin, whoever's listening, don't let him die!/
"You...." Lex turned to the growling voice to see a behemoth of a Quarryman with a sparking hammer. "You rotten little faggots. You are going to die. I'll kill you now!" He raised the hammer. Lex didn't even have time to think. He conquered his first instinct to run and threw himself over Amp's body. He screamed as something heavy smashed into his shoulder and several volts of electricity went through him. Lex barely had time to catch his breath from the pain from the first blow to see that the Quarryman was preparing for another. Lex lay his head between Staghart's antlers and hoped it would be quick. He heard a fierce roar and saw something gray and white, no bigger than himself, throw itself at the attacker. The big Quarryman screamed as he struggled with it before finally being able to pull it off and strike it with his hammer like he was hitting a baseball. The gargoyle- Lex could see that the new attacker was a gargoyle- screamed as he shuddered on the Earth he had been thrown to. The Quarryman lifted his hammer to bring it down once more, only to be stopped when a ring of mirrored metal suddenly wrapped around him, pinning his arms to his sides.
"Alright then, Lex?" asked Dingo, now dressed in the power armor that was Matrix.
"Amp's been hurt bad." said Lex.
Staghart groaned and started to come to. "Is the party over?" he asked. He glanced over to see the shivering elderly gargoyle next to the restrained Quarryman. "No! Kashi!" Staghart struggled to his feet.
"Amp, easy!" said Lex, fearing he would collapse again.
Staghart was at Kashi's side. "Kashi! Kashi!" he remembered Japanese manners. "Kashi-San, please, get up!"
"Tsukareta..." the old gargoyle muttered.
"Sir?" Lex asked the old gargoyle. "Are you OK? Do you speak English?"
The old gargoyle smiled, looking at something just past Lexington. "Riku....aitakatta....Iki so da, Riku!" He closed his eyes and moved no more.
One of the Quarrymen raised a hammer against Fang. Fang blocked with his own volt of energy. The two blasts sparked against each other, throwing them apart as the Quarryman dropped his hammer. "Not so tough now, are ya, schmucko?" sneered Fang, pouncing on him. He raised a hand, causing another ball of sparking energy to form in his hand. "Taste my lightning, fucker!" He paused when he heard a gun cock near his head.
"And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger...." Rev. Walters recited. He never finished the verse. Riko had snuck up behind him and smashed a bottle of champagne over his head. The Rev went down like a sack of potatoes.
Fang smiled up at the female gargoyle who just saved his life. "Think I'll keep ya." he decided. He sneered down at the Quarryman he had pinned down. "Now, where was I? Oh, yeah, givin' ya a taste of your own medicine!" The Quarryman shrieked in pain and terror as Fang electrocuted him.
"If only I had my gun!" muttered Robyn as Yama stood before her with his swords drawn. "If only wedding gowns were easier to fight in!"
"I will protect you, Robyn-San!" said Yama, matching action to words as he fended off a hammer wielding Quarryman. "It is my duty as Best Man!"
"You're probably the first Best Man in centuries that actually had to defend the bride." Robyn pointed out.
Kaede returned with the gun and a bowling ball. "Why did you bring my bowling ball?" asked Hiroshi.
"That's where I hid the bullets." she said. "So the children wouldn't hurt themselves." Hiroshi sighed and started shaking bullets out of the ball. Kaede saw Staghart and Lexington over Kashi's body. "Kashi! Onii-Chan!" she screamed, running over to them, heedless of the chaos exploding around her. She almost didn't see the Quarryman about to strike her.
Said Quarryman soon found himself on his back, looking up at a deer head with white glowing eyes. "You want to hit little old ladies." the deer accused.
"You...you talk!" the Quarryman gasped. "You speak English!
"I can also sing and swear like a sailor in French." said Staghart. "But you'll never know that."
"Castaway said you were beasts!" the Quarryman protested.
"Kashi! Kashi!" Kaede shrieked.
"Kaede, I'm sorry!" said Lexington. "He's gone."
"Onii-Chan...." Kaede wept.
"You mourn your dead." the Quarryman gasped. "I didn't know...I thought...please, let me go. I'll never raise a hammer again."
"It's probably a trick!" said Lex. "Don't let him go!"
As Staghart was weighing his options, trying to decide, a shot rang out. "Drop your weapons!" Demanded Hiroshi, brandishing his revolver. "As the local constable, I order you to drop your weapons! Cease and desist!"
"We do not wish any innocent humans harmed." said Castaway, not lowering his hammer.
"If he's the law, Castaway." shouted the Quarryman who had been pinned down. "Maybe we should...."
"Shut up, you idiot!" Castaway snapped. "Now, as I said, we do not wish to harm humans. Let us do you the favor of exterminating these monsters and you will be spared. Otherwise, we cannot be held responsible for any collateral damage." A fish was thrown at Castaway's head.
"Kiero, baka!" shouted Toshiro. The briefly paused battle started again.
Goliath was still fighting with Wolf. They were evenly matched, both having taken and given some harsh wounds they were presently ignoring for the sake of their battle. Elisa had given up on trying to get a good shot of Wolf and was picking off Quarrymen who all wanted a piece of the purple giant themselves. She didn't really want to kill anyone. She was going for non-lethal shots to the arms and shoulders. Some Quarrymen would be unable to lift a hammer, or indeed anything heavier than a pillow, for quite a few weeks.
Jackal staggered to his feet. It was a good thing the internal auto-ejector that replaced his circulatory system had a self-repair program. Otherwise, that bite to his jugular would've killed him. He saw Wolf battling Goliath. Maybe Wolf would like a helping hand? He unsheathed his claws and stepped up to fight.
Xanatos saw Jackal rise and took up a cloth napkin that had been used previously to handle an ice cold champagne bottle. Xanatos made his plan. /First, distract target. Then block blind jab. Palm strike to nose, dislocating it. Discombobulate. Dazed, he will slash wildly. Duck and sweep kick at legs. Heel kick to chest cavity should short circuit artificial heart for thirty seconds, time enough for several blows to the throat and groin, the few bits left organic and vulnerable. Full physical recovery- six weeks. Full psychological recovery- six months./
Xanatos' plan went into action. He threw the napkin in Jackal's face. He turned and jabbed blindly at his attacker, just as Xanatos planned. Jackal felt his nose crack and was confused by several blows to the head. He slashed wildly at whoever was attacking him, only to find himself falling. His chest constricted in pain as his artificial heart stopped working. Just as his self-repair program was starting to go on line to repair the damage, more pain rained upon him until everything went black and Xanatos walked away the victor.
"Die, you ginger bitch!" Hyena screamed, slashing her claws at Fox, who ducked and sweep kicked.
"Fuck off, you robo-slut!" Fox retorted. She threw a laquer plate at Hyena. It smashed, a fragment cutting her cheek. Hyena ran screaming at her. The two women fought while trading insults.
"Rich man's whore!"
"Ugly tramp!"
"Skank!"
"Flat!"
"Thunder thighs!"
"Fashion victim!"
Angela and the Quarryman who had attacked her were circling each other like wolves. Angela crouched in her torn kimono and growled as her eyes glowed red. Wisps of her hair had fallen loose from its elaborate updo, but the flower had managed to stay pinned in. The Quarryman was spinning his sparking hammer menacingly, trying to ignore the blood dripping into his eye. Angela pounced, only to fall in pain when two shots were fired, sending searing pain through her left shoulder and wing. "Finish her!" a woman's voice demanded.
Before the hammer was brought down, the Quarryman was tackled by Broadway. Felicity was about to shoot when suddenly, something heavy pinned her to the ground.
"I do not like to strike a female." said Kaze. "So, I will just sit on you for awhile."
Felicity screamed as she tried in vain to struggle, only to find she couldn't move. "Get off me! Banky! Anyone! Help!"
"Alright, get off my girlfriend, fatty!" Demanded Banky as he raised his hammer to Kaze.
"It's muscle!" roared Broadway, slamming the Quarryman he had just grabbed into Banky.
"And who said I was your girlfriend?" demanded Felicity.
"Hey, I'm trying to save your stupid ass!" retorted Banky.
"You're never getting any if that's how you talk to girls!" said Broadway as he kicked him in the stomach, sending him rolling. "Can you handle 'em, Kaze? Angela needs me." The Vet was out cold. Banky was curled up and moaning as he grabbed his midsection.
"Hai." said Kaze.
Broadway ran to Angela's side. "Angela? You hurt?"
"My arm...my wing...." she groaned. "Perfectly nice kimono...ruined!"
Broadway smiled as he picked her up. Angela was always more upset over damaged clothes than any wounds she might have. Her argument was that she would heal during the day, but clothes had to be repaired or replaced. "Come on, I'll take you someplace safe."
"No...Quarrymen...gotta fight."
"Hey, you got some good licks in." said Broadway. "I'll bet that guy thinks twice before going after another gargoyle." He carried her away from the melee. "The clinic's down this street somewhere."
Broadway wasn't sure whether to feel relieved or nervous when he realized the place was open. That meant Angela could get medical help, but it also meant someone else was wounded. How many? How many more would show up. He saw Kaede and Lexington in the waiting room. Lexington, who looked like he had been bandaged up, was trying to comfort a weeping Kaede. He also saw a man with dark hair and glasses...wearing Quarryman robes, even if a mask was nowhere to be seen. "What are you doing here?" Broadway demanded.
"It's OK, Broadway." said Lex. "His name's Maxwell Scott and he's on our side now. He helped us get here. He carried Kashi for us." Kaede sobbed and said something in Japanese. "Yeah, I'm afraid Ishimura lost one of its own. He died trying to save me and Amp." Lexington looked at the floor.
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" said Maxwell. "I thought you were monsters. I believed Castaway's lies. I know better now."
The door opened and Shinju came in with Yuri trying to walk in, slumped over her. Yuri collapsed as soon as they got in. "Tasukete!" Shinju yelled frantically.
Lex ran to the door of the surgery. "Dr. Kimura!" he yelled. "We got more!" Dr. Kimura and Chiyo both came running.
Chiyo took Angela from Broadway. "You walk?" she asked. Angela was unsteady, but could walk with help. Chiyo led her to the surgery. Broadway started to follow. "You're not hurt." said Chiyo. "Stay." Broadway reluctantly took a seat next to Kaede, who was just starting to calm down a bit.
Dr. Kimura lifted Yuri into his arms and took note of Shinju's bleeding head wound. He said something to her in Japanese. She followed him into the surgery. Lex ran up to him. "Is Am-Stagahart OK?" he asked.
"I stitched his wound and gave him something for his headache." Dr. Kimura said as he carried Yuri into the surgery. "He's been asking for you. He's in the room just down the hall to the left." He laid Yuri on a table and called for Chiyo, who put a compress on Shinju's head as Kimura cut away at Yuri's kimono and layers of underclothes. "I warn you, he may act a bit queer."
"As opposed to how he usually acts?" Lex responded.
"I mean, he may act odd, out of sorts." said Dr. Kimura as he worked at cleaning and disinfecting Yuri's wounds. "I couldn't do an accurate scan due to the antlers, but I think he may be concussed. The medicine I gave him may cause him to be disconnected with reality, but not drowsy. As long as he doesn't fall asleep before sunrise, he'll be fine. Go to him. Make sure he doesn't go to sleep. Do whatever you have to do. Just keep him awake."
"Will do." Lex went to find Staghart.
