Ok; apparently they let little girls participate in a battle royal to the death in these parts, who knew? Well, you weren't really in the mood for fighting, and both you and the kid were feeling a
little drained from everything that's happened today; Shirou way more than you. So, you decided that an intimidating boast and taunt would do the trick; scare the girl and her Servant off, or at least distract them enough for you to escape without a trace. Should be cake; it's a
little girl, what could she
possibly do or summon that would actually be a threat? With a graceful turn and a flourish of a hand, you begin your boast.
"Ah, young maiden; while you may be a participant in this bloody affair, I implore you to leave us be for now. For I am Tandem the Spoony; Greatest Swordsman in the World! Unmatched in the field of battle; slayer of beasts and demons alike. I have even reached the level of
Gods; becoming one myself before casting such divinity aside. But I am a good and just man at heart, and crushing the dreams of a child isn't something I am willing to rush into so quickly. So, I give you this chance to retreat; and rethink the risk you are undertaking in this war." There, a boast to show how powerful you were along with a message to rethink whatever the brat's considering. Should at the very least keep her and her Servant on edge.
The girl, a little slip of a thing with red eyes and snow-white hair, giggles and says, "Your Servant is funny, onii-chan. Too bad he has to die. Bezer-"
In a flash; a giant appears. Towering far above your head, with skin of bronze and radiating fury and rage, he gave off an aura of power and might unmatched. By the gods, he was larger than that mutant assassin you fought in Teranigma! And
he was hopped up on that cocktail that
creates dragons. And
this guy, this guy was giving you a
look. The kinda look that screams, "I will fuck you up so bad, that not even Hell will be able to look at you without puking their guts.". A look of sheer
hatred and
anger, that you start to get a little nervous...
You start to laugh nervously and shrink back a little, "Eheheheh; do we happen to, um,
know each other by any chance? Because it looks like you're
really mad at me. So whatever it is I did to offend you, buddy; I'm
really sorry. And I would like the chance to make amends here, um..."
"YOU..." Oh sweet Jesus,
"I never thought we would ever meet; though deep down, a part of me has LONGED for it. For the crimes you have committed against my Father and Sister; to have the opportunity to deliver retribution is GLORIOUS."
"Uhhh...
I'm...
very...
sorry?"
This only serves to enrage the Giant further,
"You don't even remember?! You have the GALL to forget that you deflowered my SISTER! How my Father, mighty Zeus, struck you down for this offence?! No matter, it appears I now have the opportunity to properly finish what my Father had intended..."
Oh fuck; will you
never live that down?! Immediately you prepare for a fight, just as the titan that you've now deduced is probably Hercules is barrling towards you with the white-hot intensity of a thousand suns. You cast Mislead of Shirou to keep him safe and out of sight while you prepare to deal with the 500 pounds of divine 'FUCK YOU' heading at your face.
[X] What do?!
Notes: Herk's stat sheet has changed; it's more or less the same from canon except:
Mad Enhancement EX
- This servant is not in a blind fury, but is rather Fury Incarnate itself; receiving a quadruple rank multiplier (basically his rank^4th) in all parameters, and additional rank ups in all parameters as one's rage and fury grows. In addition, one's thoughts are tainted by the lens of anger, yet one is still capable of complex thought, for their fury has given them greater focus and determination. They can think, so that they can inflict greater vengeance on what has offended them.
