Raphael vs.Zarzx
An Excerpt From the Unseen Servant of God
Washington D.C.-Present Day
Raphael spun rapidly in the air, turning three hundred and sixty degrees at the speed of thought (barely visible), his twin blades Alpha and Omega, cutting at every possible angle. However, to the ancient demon Zarzx’s credit , he managed to a have a superb defense parrying every single thrust, slash, and cut , of the Unseen Servant of God’s attacks.
Fiery sparks flew about constantly, lighting up the night sky high above Washington D.C. To people who saw the battle, it appeared to them as an early Fourth of July show. After all, the Fourth of July was only two days away. Still, the sparks flew about in every way possible, mesmerizing the quickly gathering crowd watching the strange, but undeniably beautiful spectacle.
Raphael suddenly had an epiphany. Zarzx’s swords were straight and each was roughly four feet in length. What I need, is two curved blades to slide passed the ancient demons defenses.
Connected mystically to their master’s every thought, Alpha and Omega metamorphosed into two katanas. And just as Raphael had thought the curved katanas slipped passed the straighter blades of Zarzx’s. Suddenly, two cuts appeared on the ancient’s demons arms as he missed the parries. They were relatively deep too. A lesser demon would have immediately yielded, in hopes that the Holy vampire would show mercy. Zarzx was not a lesser demon however, and would not yield so easily.
The ancient caught on quickly and his own longswords shifted as well and became black-bladed, diamond edged, katana’s to match Raphael’s own shapeshifting blades.
The two combatants withdrew from each other suddenly , and much to Raphael’s chagrin the wounds on the ancient’s arms closed up and healed. The demon had used black magic, in conjunction with his sword’s own innate magical powers and healed himself. Raphael blew out a sigh. This was going to be a longer battle than the Unseen Servant originally anticipated. He thought it may just become a long, drawn out battle, and even worse, it was over Washington D.C.
A ball of hell fire was suddenly willed into existence by Zarzx, and before Raphael could react he was hit with it full force, blasting him to the ground about a hundred yards from the people that had gathered. The ground around Raphael shook from the impact, knocking some of the spectators to the ground. People began to run in shock, suddenly realizing that this was most certainly not an early fireworks display.
Zarzx laughed evilly at the chaos he had just caused. He then teleported down to Raphael, who had quickly recovered, but had baited the ancient to the ground. Out snapped Alpha and Omega, impossibly fast, both straight blades once more, parallel to the other only about a foot apart. Zarzx could parry only one the two. Omega was blocked by the demon’s twin blades, but Alpha stabbed into and right through Zarzx’s right shoulder blade.
The Unseen Servant twisted Alpha, just as the demon howled and began to back off from the painful blade. But not before a surge of pure holy energy came out from the tip of the most powerful of all weapons, and into the wound. This would ensure that the dark magic of Zarzx’s blades could not be used to heal the painful wound.
However, the same exact wound appeared suddenly on the Holy vampire’s right shoulder as well. The ancient demon had used one of his unique powers to twist the dimensional space around him to injure his adversary as well. No matter, Raphael wasn’t the Unseen Servant of God for no reason.
He chanted a spell. "Kyrac mor do’ va baz kortar!" His wound closed began to close and the ancient demon’s wound once again glowed with holy energy as Raphael’s spell was draining the demon’s energy to heal his own wound.
Not only did the powerful spell do this, but it temporarily rendered the black magic of Zarzx’s blades useless, and in addition binded the ancient’s unique dimensional warping powers as well.
However, the spell had a short duration for it drained the very fabric of goodly magic. It would only last two minutes. However, Raphael had already considered this and thus he froze time.
The people running toward the two were frozen, as well as everyone else within the vicinity.
"Clever, Raphael, but you know that spell will not defeat my powers forever!" The ancient demon snickered.
Raphael already knew that, the magic that was being used to stop time was draining upon even him, and the spell was still draining the fabric of magic, although it was slowed through the time stasis.
Thus, the Holy vampire knew it was time to finish this once and for all.
The Unseen Servant of God’s eyes went completely white, blazing with the power of the Holy Spirit.
Zarzx’s eyes went wide with shock as Raphael’s power increased a hundred fold. Suddenly, the ancient realized he soon would be making a trip back to hell. And the United States government would certainly not make the mistake of summoning him again.
Raphael, however, had other plans. Zarzx was simply far too powerful and dangerous to be sent back to hell.
The Holy vampire was going to erase the ancient from existence itself.
Raphael’s body became wreathed in blazing white flame. Alpha and Omega rejoined into their original form, as one most powerful, most holy blade, and disappeared, waiting on their master’s call. Raphael’s arm shot out before Zarzx knew what was happening.
The ancient was suddenly wreathed in holy fire. Not only did it cause pain beyond any pain he had ever felt it began to drain his considerable energy as well, weakening him more and more every second. He knew now that he was simply going back to Hell, he knew soon he would be no more.
And he was absolutely right.
A translucent cube of force appeared, as the Holy vampire willed it too, and went up around the ancient demon and smashed inward. Had he been at full strength he could have shattered it , but he was nowhere near full power as Raphael had drained all his energy away.
The cube of force smashed inward, and Zarzx, a demon of great power and renown was erased out of time and space, out of existence completely, as if he had never existed.
Time began again. The people in Washington D.C. began to move, but could not recall the most recent events of the fire work show.
Raphael Zazzparass, the Unseen Servant of God, defender of the Earth, had erased their memories.
And then he was gone....
