				<div class="floatleft">(http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo354/mithlomwen/rp%20art/Ladies/183_large.jpg)</div><br>"Get him!"&nbsp; Lady Morrigan screeched at several of her guards, lifting her Katana high in the air threateningly, as if to take off a few of their heads on her own if they didn't see to her orders....and quickly.&nbsp; She had been fighting her arch nemisis Captain Stardust for as long as she could remember, but this battle went beyond any before.&nbsp; There was a fierceness on both sides that left any previous battle looking like they had been sitting down for a cordial cup of tea and friendly conversation.&nbsp; <br><br>"You won't get away from me this time Stardust."&nbsp; She snarled, motioning to her guards to flank him while she came at him head on, holding the Katana in front of her nearly naked body, her eyes watching her nemesis warily.&nbsp; One thing she had learned over the years was to never take him for granted.&nbsp; He might appear to be beaten, but that was when he would come at her with an extra burst of speed, or show of strength and leave her slightly dazed.&nbsp; <br><br>The silver piercings that barely managed to cover her breasts, glinted in the light of the moon, it's silvery light reflecting off of the razor sharp blade of her sword.&nbsp; "Come and get me......if you <em>can</em>..."&nbsp; Morrigan taunted him, crossing one thigh high booted foot over the other as she attempted to circle him, swinging the blade in a figure eight pattern in front of her.&nbsp; "Don't tell me after all of these years you still haven't got what it takes to take me down."&nbsp; She laughed, her muscles tensed, poised to move quickly out of his way should he come at her.&nbsp; <br><br>Several more of her guards fanned out, covering the outlying reaches of the rooftop they currently occupied, leaving little chance of escape for him.&nbsp; Or that's what she hoped anyway.&nbsp; Perhaps this would be the time that she was able to take him down.&nbsp; Perhaps this was the time she would finally be able to rid her life of the pesky nuisance that was Captain Stardust.&nbsp; He had been a thorn in her side for far too long and it was time to end it.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br><br>Her battle cry echoed into the darkness of the night as she lunged forward, sword held high over her head as she moved in for the kill, her eyes blazing fire and hatred as she moved in to strike what she hoped would be the killing blow.&nbsp;

				(http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/2406/raincopyh.jpg)<br><br>There was a time when putting on a ridiculous outfit and chasing a homocidal madwoman was his idea of a night well spent, but lately the black depression had grown deeper, and he honestly could not say what was the point of it all. For every few he saved from the likes of the Lady, thousands more died in traffic accidents, brawls and shootouts, not to mention the countless millions who destroyed themselves with little outside help. It was like trying to hold back the rising tide, except that he could have possibly managed that feat, whereas keeping people safe from themselves was far less encouraging or rewarding.<br><br>He watched the guards moving, recognising a few from previous battles, and he was struck by the sheer stupidity and futility of their lives. His fist glowed with a blue flame as he reached out, grabbing the onrushing madwoman by the wrist to flip her expertly over his shoulder, a heavy boot moving to step firmly between her admittedly perfect breasts. The katana he caught before it had fallen more than a hairsbreadth, his armoured fist grasping it tightly to whip it around in a deadly arc. "Where do you get these idiots?" Staring down at the Lady, he paid no mind to the three men who suddenly found themselves eviscerated with such speed that it took them several seconds to realise that their intestines were spilling free like silvery serpents.<br><br>"The better part of a decade and not one of them as ever so much as scratched me." His voice was as much bewildered as enraged, and one of the unfortunate henchmen who was too confused by the sudden disdain for his fighting prowess found himself peering down as the blade was sheathed in his chest. A faint sigh came from him as he tumbled backwards, and the others began to display uncommon good sense enough to retreat a few steps. "I'm as much to blame. If I'd killed a few more of them you probably wouldn't recruit them as easily." He glanced up to consider that thought, and one man they seemed determined to prove him wrong, one even going so far as to lunge for the katana still stuck in his fallen brother.<br><br>The flash of blue light was so blinding that it seemed to deafen as well, filling the air with the unmistakable tang of ozone, followed shortly by the scent of fried pork. "Why can't you just marry a ninety year old billionaire with a heart problem?" He threw his hands up in the air, almost snarling at the idiocy of it all, and he didn't even have the heart to stomp her into paste, much as he wished to. He stalked away, ignoring her as he looked out over the city, musing on the inhabitants he had risked life and limb to save for most of his life. "Stupid, ungrateful bastards."

				Morrigan thrashed and struggled beneath his foot, trying in vain to wrest his foot off of her chest so that she might get free to fight him again.&nbsp; Being held down beneath his foot had her at a big disadvantage.&nbsp; "Let me go!"&nbsp; She hissed, pushing against his foot and bucking her body to try and free <br><br>She half listened to what he was saying as she fought to free herself, glancing up to watch him as he easily dispatched several of her men.&nbsp; Morrigan snorted up at him, the venom in her voice unmistakable.&nbsp; "They are loyal to me!"&nbsp; She spat, acting for all of the world if her being pinned beneath his foot was an every day occurrence.&nbsp; "No matter how many you kill, there are many more willing to take their place as they all share my hatred of you.&nbsp; The opportunity to kill you is what drives them, I only give them the vehicle in which to do that."&nbsp; <br><br>She was confused as to what he was prattling on about, her eyes growing wide as he simply moved away from her to curse at the night.&nbsp; "What?"&nbsp; She barked at him, not entirely certain she'd heard him right.&nbsp; Was he really cursing the humans he always fought so hard to save?&nbsp; <br><br>"Ahhhhhhh....."&nbsp; She purred sensually getting up off of the ground to move closer to him.&nbsp; "Finally seeing things my way, are we?"&nbsp; Morrigan taunted him icily, moving to stand beside him for a moment.

				He had grown used to the idea that some people never learned their lessons, for all of the times that he had beaten the Lady and her legions to a pulp, they persisted in returning to try again. Of course, she seemed to always recover no matter what he, or her own actions, did to injure her, although he suspected that there was a much higher turnover on henchmen. It occurred to him that for ever time he had punched, kicked and thrown her, he had never done the one thing that seemed to him the most obvious means of providing him with a moment of satisfaction.<br><br>The backhanded slap had little of his force behind it, he only wanted to lift her off of her feet to spin a few times instead of snapping her neck, though he knew from experience that a broken neck would only slow her down for a few weeks. It was utterly satisfying, however, to feel that soft flesh split beneath the force of the impact from his knuckles, and he was quite happy to see the welts rising upon her pale flesh.<br><br>"Honestly, if I saw things your way I'd be worse off." He sounded a little calmer as the pleasure of finally shutting her up for a few moments washed over him. Stalking towards her, he grinned, not that one could see behind that mask he wore. "I mean, you're fucking useless at this." His hand snaked out, snatching a handful of her hair as he hauled her back to her feet, and he could not help but wonder why he had always been willing to be merciful after securing victory. It would have made more sense to put the fear of himself into his enemies, if for no better reason than to discourage repeat offenders. "You, and the rest of those evil geniuses, manage less evil than the net amount of sins committed by all of those ugly little apes scurrying around down there. I'd have conquered this little planet in a month."

				Morrigan hissed angrily as she felt the back of his hand connect with her face.&nbsp; The soft flesh of her bottom lip gave way beneath the force, splitting in two.&nbsp; The taste of warm copper filled her mouth, a thin line of crimson dripping from her lip down her chin.&nbsp; "You can be such a bastard sometimes Stardust."&nbsp; She growled grumpily, wiping her injured lip with the back of her hand.&nbsp; <br><br>Blood smeared across the pale surface, staining her milky white flesh red, but she payed it little mind, knowing that she would heal quickly.&nbsp; She sashayed a little closer to him once again, staying just out of arms reach this time as she leaned casually against the side of the building.&nbsp; "Delusions of grandeur again?"&nbsp; The raven haired beauty snarked, hating to admit that he was probably right.&nbsp; He was powerful and if he had set his mind to it, she might very well be HIS minion.&nbsp; &nbsp;

				Glancing sideways at Morrigan, or at least giving as much an impression of the act as was possible with a helmet that had glowing slits for eyes, he spoke with a calm, measured tone of voice that was nevertheless also a sarcastic sneer. "Well, if I stop you whenever you try something, who would that leave to stop me?" A man got tired of always having to wonder if the right side was only right because he was on it. Not that he really had any desire to be evil, he'd never seen the allure of cruelty, he just liked to do his job and enjoy a bit of peace and quiet. Except that the other idiots seemed to enjoy the work, even though it cost them a fortune and seemed to always end in disaster.<br><br>"You know ..." He turned, peering down at her as a curiously unfamiliar thought reared its head deep in his mind. Lifting one hand, the tips of his fingers began to crackle as blue light arced between them. Beneath the mask he smiled, considering how all those carefully constructed contingencies could be put to work far more proactively with a little determination. "I could probably start with you. Even those subhumans you employ could probably serve some practical use."<br><br>The part of his brain that gave reality to thought seemed to be in agreement, as the radiant fingertips began to lengthen into long, disturbingly surgical blades. "You would make an excellent object lesson." He wasn't entirely sure that he was only attempting to avenge years of torment with a bit of terror, but a little bit of him wondered just how long it would take to carve out her heart.

				Morrigan's eyes flashed with fear as she watched his hands.&nbsp; What was happening to captain do good?&nbsp; "Stardust....."&nbsp; She whispered tentatively, for the first time, actually and truly afraid of him.&nbsp; "What would you accomplish by hurting me?"&nbsp; She tossed out to her nemesis, trying to snap him out of whatever seemed to be going on in his mind.&nbsp; <br><br>He had always fought for good, fought against her nefarious plans, but now he seemed as if reality was slowly slipping away from him and he was spiraling into the madness that was occupying his mind.&nbsp; <br><br>"You don't <em>really</em> want to hurt me Stardust."&nbsp; She said haughtily, hoping her bravado didn't show any of the fear she was currently feeling.&nbsp; "If you killed me, what would you do with your time?&nbsp; Who would you have to fight with?"&nbsp; Morrigan asked, backing away from him slowly, hoping to be able to take him by surprise and escape.&nbsp; "We are Yin and Yang you and I...."&nbsp; She murmured softly, trying to convince him of the truth of his words, all while trying to sneak away before he did something she might regret.&nbsp;

				The suit of armour Stardust wore seemed to shift and flow like water as he tilted his head to one side, and the mask seemed to take on diabolically handsome features as he opened what could only have been a mouth, blue fire dancing over wicked looking teeth as he laughed at her. It was a harsh, grating sound that rose into a maniacal cackle as he stared her down. "I would finally put some order into this damned world." He took a step closer, and the image of a cybernetic knight seemed to give way to a far more sinister figure, a dark, sleek and altogether nastier image, as though the shadows of Hell had escaped their stygian prison for a brief holiday.<br><br>He surged across the rooftop, snarling as he snatched her up in long, taloned claws to hurl her back against the wall hard enough to shatter brick, catching her by the hair before she could recover to turn her around. The sheer bulk of him kept her from moving, as he grabbed her forearms, forcing them out to her sides as he pinned her to the wall as though she was crucified. The pressure of his hold kept her front firm against the bricks, his breath tickling her hair as he spoke, close to her ear. "One of us, my dear, is a god, and the other is simply a life support system for a pair of, admittedly, magnificent breasts." He grinned, bearing a mawful of wicked black fangs, leaning close to place a delicate kiss upon her cheek. "You know, I think you might have been more fun if you'd ever had the talent to match your machinations."

				Morrigan grunted from the force of the impact against the wall, groaning softly as she felt the bricks giving way beneath her body.&nbsp; Granted a blow like that wouldn't kill her, but it sure as hell knocked the wind out of her for a moment.&nbsp; <br><br>She stared at him dazedly for several heartbeats, her muscles refusing to obey her commands quickly enough, and before she was able to defend herself from him, she found herself pressed face first into the wall.&nbsp; "Let me go!"&nbsp; She hissed at him, grunting and struggling against his hold.&nbsp; She had no idea what had happened to her nemesis, what sort of illness had taken over his mind that had <em>him</em> acting the villain all of a sudden.&nbsp; "What is wrong with you?!"&nbsp; Morrigan grunted as he pinned her against the wall, feeling yet another shiver of true fear snake down her spine. <br><br>She was in trouble.&nbsp; She knew it.&nbsp; And as her nearly naked body rubbed up against the rough surface of the bricks, she could only imagine what sort of thoughts were racing through his head.&nbsp; Would he truly kill her?&nbsp; Did he really want her dead?&nbsp; <br><br>"Well if you kill me....."&nbsp; She panted, feeling her airway being constricted as he pressed against her even more.&nbsp; "You won't get to admire those breasts....."&nbsp; She coaxed, trying to distract him with thoughts of sex rather than murder.&nbsp;

				Turning his head to catch the corner of her eye in his gaze, he felt a pleasantly unfamiliar sensation as he felt himself indulging in a soft, pleasantly musical laugh, all the more disturbing coming from one so stalwartly dour and brooding at other times. "You know, any other day of the year and I'd consider taking you up on the offer." Not that he would ever do such a thing, of course, he'd have just forced himself to growl menacingly and hit someone. There were times when he suspected that the sort of insanity that attracted powerful women to him was probably latent in every female of the species. There had to be some sort of link between his grimly dedicated work ethic and the sheer multitudes of beautiful women who attempted to use sexual wiles to murder, or indoctrinate him.<br><br>"Flint had it easy." He spoke in a distant tone of voice, his blazing orange eyes leaving trails in the air as he shook his head vigorously. The buzzing in the back of his mind had to be the usual pent up rage looking for any escape. "Sorry about that, talking to myself again." He shrugged, incidentally twisting her arms up firmly behind her back as he did, holding both of her forearms crossed in one claw. "I was just about to say that I am rather tempted to eat your living heart."

				"What?!"&nbsp; She squeaked, her voice raising several octaves as the pain from the angle her arms were being held at finally started to register.&nbsp; Yes she healed fast, but she still felt pain just like any other person.&nbsp; "Stardust....you're talking crazy...."&nbsp; She snipped at him, grunting low and deep within her chest as she struggled to either get free of his hold or at least be able to turn around to face him head on. <br><br>"Besides, I'm a bitter old shrew remember?"&nbsp; Morrigan tossed out at him, hoping the insult would bring him to his senses.&nbsp; "I doubt my heart would taste any good, as cold and shriveled as it is!"&nbsp; She could only hope that tossing his own words back at him might jar him back to his senses.&nbsp; What in the world had come over the once goody two shoes superhero she had no idea.&nbsp; <br><br>The menace, and profound maniacal pleasure he seemed to be deriving from scaring her actually had her completely terrified.&nbsp; She'd never seen him like this before, and it scared her half out of her wits.&nbsp; SHE was supposed to be the bad guy here, not him.&nbsp; &nbsp;
