All these people are terrible fighters.” Harrol whisked a stone at a Titan that had began to turn red and run after his fallen comrade. “Most of them were resurrected when Oryx arrived. They’re barely 5 years old.” “Really? Amateurs.” Sasha said as their ghosts beamed them up into their ships. In the spirit of the holiday, they had painted streaks of red over their armor. Sasha even applied a temporary red tinted visor to her helmet. Sasha’s dark blue hair fell against the back of her seat as they found a new pair to destroy. The place she set her hair was severely singed. “I have found a new pair. They seem to be married, and are both very similar.” Ghost was also in the season, sporting a shiny red shell. “Pfft, just another pair of dumbasses. Where are we fighting?” “In the cosmodrome. I’ve made sure we don’t land in the twilight ga-” “Thank you, ghost.” “We’re going to the rusted lands. Most of the hive gunk has been cleaned up.” “Good.” Sasha looked at the identical red ships that flew beside them. “Geez.” |======================| Before the battle, they both transmat on top of the large vat in the center of the map to be able to first come up with tactics. The guardians that landed before them were… to say the least, festive. They wore the exact same armor. New monarchy fur collars and shoulders, lichen marks from Oryx’s dreadnought. They had Marveaux legs, and both Insurmountable-class Skullforts with pixels that made a heart pattern. They were sporting the Valentine shader. Their ghosts hovered close. “What the hell is up with these guys?” Harrol whispered. They both held the red spectre. The male Titan had a boombox on his shoulder. He set it on the vat and went to his partner. They hugged, and looked at them. “I know they won’t be up for long!” Sasha cracked her knuckles. She mumbled. “Pretentious fu-” Before she could finish, the female handed her a rose, and waved her finger. Sasha Growled. |======================| [b]~$~[/b] In the first round, the male titan started whatever song was in the boombox. It was only instrumental; the Titans were singing the whole time. The male had gone to the east courtyard while the female stayed back. Harrol ran in for a shoulder charge. [i]“Coming in unannounced, drag my nails on the tile~”[/i] The male spun around and spiked Harrol to the ground, where he punched his head in. Sasha felt the surge of power. A broken heart. Harrol had died. “Are you fugging kidding me?” She sighed and ran towards his ghost, which was being pet by the male. Sasha inched into the brick arch, pointing her Hawkmoon at the male. [i]“You ‘ought to keep me concealed, just like I was a weapon~!”[/i] The female sung as the male looked at Sasha, his head slightly down as the female fell on top on her and jammed her bayonet into her back. The round ended, and Sasha cursed through her ghost. |======================| “WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!?” Sasha grieved. “He was better than I expected.” Harrol loaded his weapon. “Whatever, hun. Let’s do this. A real challenge!” [i]“And I loooove the way you hurt me~!”[/i] They both sung in unison as they waited in the east building. “Geez, pervs-” Harrol grunted. As they made it up the stairs, they came upon the couple hugging with their helmets touching,the whole time singing. As our duo reached the top, they both made walls of void around them, making one, portable bubble. Sasha and Harrol shot at them desperately as they neared ran faster across the room. The couple charged at them in tandem, and at the last second, spun in a circle, creating an opening in the bubble. [i]”I’m gonna get you to burst, just like you were a bubble~!”[/i] They spun the opposite direction and plunged their fists through the opening, punching Sasha and Harrol in their faces, sending them flying backwards. They deactivated the bubble and shot the both of them in their heads. [b]~$~[/b] |======================| [i]Three rounds later...[/i] “Oh my traveler, they’re so good!” Sasha admit, and placed her visor in her hands. “Why am I sucking so hard!” Harrol lit up. “Does that mean we ca-” “Not like that, Harrol.” “Aw.” Sasha loaded her Hawkmoon, and looked behind Harrol. She shot the figure in the background, rising above him. The female Titan. She went down, dead. “WE GOT ONE! W- wait…” Harrol looked up, and saw a flash of red. [i]”IRRESISTIBLEEEEEEE!”[/i] The male yelled and he landed between them, and kicked the guns out on their hands. He broke Harrol’s neck and looked at Sasha, who had just summoned her Axes. He activated his portable bubble. “HELL YEAH! THIS IS HOW WE DO IT!” Sasha swung, and her axes bounced off the bubble. But a tiny crack appeared. The male kept opening holes with the spin technique and punching through them. Sasha plunged her axes into the bubble and activated her jump jet. They flew into the air, and she did a flip and sent him flying downward. The bubble shattered like glass, and he lay on the ground. He quickly flung to his feet. Sasha de-summoned her axes. She pulled her Hawkmoon from the ground. Sasha began to speak. “Heh, heh, I guess you didn-” Sasha was cut off as a bullet whizzed through her head. “TRAVELER DAMMIT!” Sasha yelled through her ghost. |======================| “Well, I guess this Crimson Day was kind of overrated.” Harrol said as he cleaned out a cup. Sasha grumbled, and shoved her face into a pillow. “I can’t believe I started to get cocky…” “Oh well.” Harrol said as a rose fell through the mail slot. He walked over and picked it up. It had a note. He read it. “Huh. It says they hope there's no hard feelings. They want to go on a-” Harrol paused. [i]”Double Date?”[/i] |======================| End of chapter 13!
