Werner VS Etho war 2

Scorched chronicles

Almost 4 months had passed since Azalo-T ruined Etho’s arsenal. Though he wasn't done, Etho had some… uncharted losses to be fulfilled. Etho finishes up his last fix and upgrades to his Terra mechs and suit. Soon, boarding XF-06 and going straight for Earth. 3 Hours remain.
Azalo-E appears in Etho’s cabin, “This is your choice, huh? You were warned by the poser, and this is what you decided on? Azalo-DR-” Azalo-E says before being cut off. “I am NOT an Azalo. DO YOU UNDERSTAND? I'M FAR PAST ALL OF YOU. ALL OF YOU… FRAUDS. All of you THINGS were just given your power, I HAD TO EARN IT. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU DOESN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT I'VE GONE THROUGH. I can't even believe we’re the same species. I'm NOTHING like any of you.” Etho rants through anger, his body showing every bit of bottled-up emotion. His usually stoic behavior finally pushed him too far. Azalo-E sighs before blinking out. It truly was too far. Azalo-DR was no longer.
XF-06, along with every other Terra mech, slammed into Earth, directly in front of a main cultist base. Etho had come to finish his overdue work. Etho fires a micro missile at the front door, forcing two cult members to duck. Suddenly, the doors are blown outward through the inward explosion. Werner walks out of the dust cloud, looking so beautifully pissed. “Hasn't it been a day. To really top it off, I get to merk this rat a THIRD TIME? COLOR ME FUCKING GREATEFUL!” Werner yells, his expression really giving off his intention as he rushes Etho.

 Vigorous bloodshed

Etho deflects Werner’s rush, XA-02 grabbing Werner out of the air and throwing him into the ground. Werner leaps straight up, grabbing XA-02 by the leg and slamming it into the floor. Twirling the mech around him and flinging it into XM-08. As Etho attempts to interfere, Azalo-G appears atop a nearby mountain, firing his chain gun right at Etho to stall. “Fucking great,” Etho mutters while getting up from the shot. XF-06 fires its plasma thrower at Azalo-G and is forced to relocate swiftly. Werner grabs the plasma cannon, aiming it straight at Etho for a second before an extra arm on XF-06 flicks Werner off. Etho flies straight at Werner, grabbing him and ripping him through a nearby mountain as the rest are left to fight the Terra mechs. Werner slams Etho into a wall, forcing him off before throwing a right hook at Etho and shattering the wall. Werner rushes behind Etho, tearing him through many trees and hills before kneeing Etho straight upward, jumping up, and axe-handing him down. Etho fires a beam at Werner, pushing him to a nearby tower before body slamming him. Etho and Werner crash into a nearby city, and every citizen quickly disperses. “You think I care about killing some random people?” Werner sarcastically questions before popping a stage 2 burst and charging at Etho. Etho barely reacts, blocking Werner's jab and countering with an elbow strike. Werner haymakers Etho into a building, completely unfazed by Ethos strike. “You should know I'm not losing to some FUCKING RAT,” Werner states before piss-missiling a tungsten ball at Etho. Etho uses his nano bots to catch the ball and fire it back at Werner. Werner easily catches the ball before chucking it back. Etho dodges the ball before appearing behind Werner. Werner slaps Etho overhead, slamming him into the floor before kicking him into the subway station.

“Came in like some hot shit, I expected a better fight,” Werner said as Etho speedblitzes behind him, firing his arm cannon point-blank and sending Werner far back. Azalo-G suddenly appears, falling to Etho and slamming him into the ground with a large mace. Werner rapidly regained himself and ripped Etho into the air, Azalo-G taking 3 shots at Etho. Etho dodges the first two chain gun rounds before grabbing the third and circling it back at Azalo-G, shattering his chain gun. Etho fires his hand cannon at Azalo-G. -G side steps before jumping up and grappling Etho to pull him down. Azalo-G pulls the broken chain gun off him to strike Etho with, throwing him straight into a building.
Eventually, Azalo-M’s ship descends onto Earth, dropping off Azalo-M, Azalo-J, and Kyoki. Etho grabs an 18-wheeler and gets a running throw straight at the newcomers. Azalo-M’s mech deploys from the ship, halting the 18-wheeler. “Is that really how you treat an old friend, Etho?” Azalo-M remarks with Etho, then disregards and fires his hand cannon straight at them. Werner uses his fist to block the beam, tearing through all the plasma like a blast. Azalo-G throws a javelin at Etho, shattering on contact. “Worth a shot.” Azalo-G shrugs while walking backward. “You all think this will be difficult for me?” Etho questions, his sarcasm being prominent. Suddenly, XM-08’s plasma cannon rips through the air right next to them, Azalo-M’s mech using a large plasma shield to protect them. Etho rushes the mech, tearing right through it and crushing its power source. Werner appears behind Etho, slamming him straight down before foot diving him further into the ground. Azalo-G grabs Etho by the leg, whipping him into a building as Werner throws a tree where Etho went. Suddenly, 10 micro-missiles launch from Etho’s location, exploding just before reaching anyone and momentarily blinding everyone. Etho appears behind Werner just a second later, hitting a powerful uppercut and following up with a throw into a skyscraper. Etho flies after Werner, hitting a quick flurry of punches before getting kicked in the head. Etho grabs Werner’s foot as he falls, taking the beast with him before getting slammed into the floor over and over again. A sudden direct hit from the XF-06 plasma cannon staggers Werner; Etho quickly legsweeps and throws Werner at Azalo-M and his group. Azalo-G catches Werner, just barely stopping him from slamming into Azalo-M. Azalo-J rushes, Etho flawlessly catching his punch before tearing his arm off and breaking his jaw with a backhand. Azalo-J lies unconscious in a building as Etho fires many micro missiles at the group again. Werner rushes Etho, deflecting every missile and drop-kicking Etho far off. Kyoki gestures to Remo to help Werner, as Remo attempts to help, Werner backhands them. “Get the FUCK back, spirit. I HAVE BIGGER PROBLEMS.” Werner roars before seemingly teleporting, a shockwave ripping through the air he once was in. Etho gets up from the rubble. Werner is already behind him with a fully cocked back haymaker; Werner’s fist makes contact, sending Etho far off a second time. Etho fires his hand cannon at Werner to stop his onslaught to no avail. Werner grabs Etho’s leg and throws him straight to where Azalo-G is. Azalo-G forms a large hammer, slamming Etho out of the air and into a pile of rubble. “Im. Fucking over this.” Etho calls out. XM-08 suddenly bursts out of a building, charging Azalo-G.

Remo quickly boosts Azalo-G’s physical strength, allowing Azalo-G to ram the mech's side to stagger it. XM-08 hits a tail flick, scattering everyone around the city. Werner suddenly appears behind XM-08, grabbing its tail and throwing the mech straight at Etho. Werner pops a stage 3 burst before blitzing Etho and slamming him straight into the floor, picking up XM-08 to slam into Etho. The mech flicks Werner off, Werner quickly regaining before throwing every nearby car and truck. Etho fires many micro missiles to destroy the cars in the air before rushing Werner. Werner side steps, trying to dodge Etho’s grapple, though not enough. Kyoki comes from nearby, trying to pull Etho off Werner. Etho’s right arm shotgun fires, the entire area around him turning cloudy with gunpowder and dust debris. Kyoki falls back, already injured from the shotgun shells. Werner grabs Etho’s right arm and slams him into the ground, dragging him around for a second before XM-08 slams into Werner.

“ENOUGH”

Werner attempts to overpower the mech, spinning it around and flinging it into a forest. Werner rushes Etho again. Etho looks too smug, though. Suddenly, XF-06 plasma cannon hits Werner directly, as Werner struggles to hold the beam back, Etho fires a fully charged hand cannon from himself with XM-08’s mouth cannon, hitting Werner at the same time. Kyoki sends Remo to protect Werner. Werner fights back all 3 powerful blasts at once, his body rapidly tearing apart. Suddenly, XF-06 and XM-08 cease their beams as Etho’s super charges. Werner is shoved into a nearby building. Etho stares at the dust as it clears, seeing Werner there… Dead.
“One down. The worst one.” Etho remarks. “WERNERRRR!!” Azalo-G cries out; he could almost cry. Werner wanted him to do otherwise. Azalo-G grapples Etho, slamming him into the floor and slightly back. Azalo-G forms two deagles, taking multiple shots at Etho before switching to a lance for a long-range dash. Etho attempts to counter the next hit, a large hammer slamming into his side. Azalo-G follows up, using a katana to slice at Etho multiple times. Azalo-G switches again as Etho regains his footing. Azalo-G goes for hand-to-hand combat, fighting with two gauntlets. Etho’s AI system attempts to read his fighting style, it's such a jumbled amount of them its unable to. Etho finally finds an opening, only for Azalo-G to switch to a combat knife for mobility while attacking. Azalo-G slams an axe into Etho’s side, Etho going for a counter before getting overhead hit by a large mace. Etho quickly gets up and rushes Azalo-G, Etho quickly falling back briefly as Azalo-G slams in front of him with a greatsword, leaving himself weirdly open. As Etho goes for a punch, Azalo-G switches to two shortswords and briefly outspeeds Etho. Azalo-G backs up and fires a shotgun at Etho before finishing his grand furioso with two dashing strikes of a long sword and sending Etho into a building. Etho tears out of the building, appearing in front of Azalo-G and slamming him into the ground before kicking him away. Azalo-G gets back up, heavily injured. “Well, shit. I guess we really lost. Even I can't hurt Etho.” Azalo-G mutters. His tone carried lost hope. Azalo-G notices Werner slightly twitching in the rubble, moving far too much for a ‘dead’ person. Werner suddenly disappears, leaving a powerful shock in the air. Etho turns around to see Werner’s missing presence. Suddenly, Werner appears behind Etho, fully charged with a haymaker.

Werner wasn't the same; his skin was tearing off and burning, IT had taken control. Werner’s fist slams into Etho, sending Etho across the country. “I'm sorry, Azalo-G,” Werner says with a newly soft, deep voice. Werner’s signature wasn't there anymore. Werner seemingly teleports and appears behind Etho again with a powerful uppercut. Etho is sent straight into space, and Werner follows and slams Etho into the moon. Etho calls his planet buster, Werner, and relentlessly slams and punches him into the moon's surface. As the planet busters beam hits the moon, it shatters it, then hits Earth, reducing it to a wasteland. Werner pops a stage 3 burst again before grabbing Etho and throwing him straight to Mars, using a fragment of the moon to jump straight after him and body slam Etho into it. XM-08 suddenly follows, its armor partly charred yet still willing to protect. Werner diverts, grabbing the mech by its jaw and tearing it off. Werner completely decommissions the mech before rushing Etho again. Etho fires hundreds of micro-missiles with the XF-06, which arrives shortly after XM-08. Werner rips through the missile barrage, clearly not caring. Werner does a few flashy acrobatics before grabbing Etho by the head and throwing him straight into XF-06. XF-06 catches Etho and fires all 4 cannons straight at Werner. Werner deflects the shock jailer, using a stage 1 burst to negate the shock nuke while tanking the plasma thrower and inferno cannon. Soon, Werner appears atop XF-06, punching a hole straight through the terra metal and ripping the mech in half. Etho shoves his extra power core in his right arm for a full power blast. XA-02 holds Werner down as the planet buster charges too. Both beams hit at once, completely disintegrating the mech, but not so much Werner. Werner uses his stage 1 healing burst consecutively, his adaptation forcing him to live.
A powerful shock rips through the space around them, Mars shattering under their feet as Werner teleports in front of Etho and shatters his right arm.

 “A GODLY FINALE YOU SAY?”

Werner grabs Etho and throws him straight to the sun, Etho stopping himself before firing his left arm cannon. Werner effortlessly blocks the beam as the planet buster beam suddenly hits him. Werner swiftly escapes the beam, hitting the sun and plunging it into a supernova. Etho flies off to dodge the nova as Werner follows suit. Werner grabs Etho’s leg as he catches up, tearing the armor and his leg clean off. Werner uses Etho’s leg to punt him straight down, following up with a foot dive. Etho blocks the strike, firing a second fully charged hand cannon blast at Werner. Werner is sent away, blocking the blast before using a stage 2 burst to propel him at Etho. Etho forms a new right arm with his nanites, reeling back a fully charged punch as Werner does the same. Right before their fists collide, a large flash of light forms in front of them. Soon stands a man in jewel’d black and white armor, it being so tamely bright. Azalo-X stops both of their strikes before they land, shunting both of them back. “You both disappoint me. Both your given strengths, all this power, and you both chose this? I'll give you both this once.” Azalo-X states as he pulls the time piercer off his back.  “I'll rewind everything that happened, but I expect this to NEVER happen again. Do we have a deal?” Azalo-X questions them both. Etho quickly responds with yes, though Werner. Werner just stares, looking at his mangled, blood-stained body. THIS wasn't him; the usurper had to pay after all. Not some ‘rat’.

“Yes,” Werner responds.
Etho and Werner are put right before the war. 3 hours remain. Etho turns his Terra mechs around. Preventing the war, as Werner announces to his cult, “Let's chill out for the rest of the day.” Though all the bloodshed. No one had won, but everyone was fine with it. It was how it needed to be after all.
With all of that, no one had won.
