Thread: A Holy Knight and a Witch... What could go wrong? (Vash x Yasashii)

Nero stood his ground while the sword embedded itself in the hard concrete road, not moving an inch as the panther closed the small lead he had gained in a matter of seconds. If the panther should tackle him rather than try and turn he was ready for close quarters combat, plus he had the advantage of his arm giving him the strength and power of a demon. She did as Nero thought and tried to turn, the momentum being to great for her grace and she ended up rolling to the side and he turned to watch her wreck into the wall. Sadly he would not get that satisfaction, she was able to pull out of her roll, while changing back into her human form, and skid to a stop with a crouched and predatory stance. Nero raised his eyebrows and gave her a small applause for her landing, I give it an eight out of ten, he said sardonically. Her face did not show the amusement he had seen earlier. It had been replaced by a look of concentration and calculation. He knew what it meant, playtime was over. Glad that she now took him as a serious threat he reached down and plucked his sword out of the concrete while chuckling. What's a matter? he asked while chuckling, Kitty not having fun any more? As soon as the last syllable dropped from his lips his voice was replaced with the sound of gunfire. He turned so his right so his demonic arm was facing toward the fire and held the arm close to his head. The arm could only be damaged by an equal or more powerful devil arm and he was willing to bet that those guns weren't said devil arm. His legs and lower torso weren't so lucky as the bullets penetrated his clothing and embedded themselves into his skin. He grimaced at the sharp pain and quickly rolled to cover behind a stack of large crates. He stood up against them and grinder his teeth as he felt the bullets being pushed back out by his healing factor reknitting the torn and tattered muscle. He was sure it was a feeling he was going to have to get used to. He could survive strikes and stabs that would be fatal for humans, but he knew there was a limit to these powers, he might just get to test them here. He reached for his gun with his right hand and flicked the chamber open to find six bullets already loaded and ready. He of course could produce his own using the power from his arm but he found it to be draining after prolonged usage as well as cheating. If he couldn't get the job done with six bullets then what was the point of having this gun. He peeled out from the corner to fire. He quickly lined up the sights and squeezed the trigger. As the hammer crashed down into the gun two high caliber bullets thundered from the twin barrels. The discharge of the shot boomed over the repeadeted fire of her rapid shots. The two bullets followed after eachother, one slightly ahead and the other behind. The first was for armor penetration and the second was for damage following the penetraition. He fired again and then went back into cover. He had to think of a way to get this back into close quarters and end this shootout. He looked inside his coat and found Yamato still hanging inside then an idea hit him. He holstered his gun and grabbed Red Queen in his left hand. He revved it three times again and peeled out from cover again, this time sprinting at Bayonetta. He then flung Red Queen at her, the fire of Exceed burning along the blade, and then lept into the air. At the peak of his jump he took his right hand and pulled out Yamato from his jacket and drew the Katana from its scabbard. Nero swung the sword over his head and brought it down over Bayonetta for an overhead strike.
