Claire VS Vendetta

**Claire VS Vendetta** is the 3rd episode of Fanfare Fights, featuring Claire from *The Summoning* series versus Vendetta from the *Making Fiends* series.

## Fight

Vendetta is in their room making fiends, but realizes they're missing an ingredient, and reads their book.

**Vendetta**: Hmmm, I need the black scalp hair of a white cat… that is very oddly specific! And weird… but where will I find this? This fiend is GUARANTEED to kill Charlotte!

Vendetta then looks through their window and sees Claire in her house stirring in a cauldron.

**Vendetta**: I think I found the place.

Claire is still stirring her summon in a pot. Vendetta then has her front door torn down by Grudge.

**Vendetta**: You! Stupid girl! Give me your hair!

Claire responds in a confused, calm, somewhat menacing tone.

**Claire**: Who the hell are you…?

Then she gets into a demonic tone.

**Claire**: AND WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO MY DOOR!

**Vendetta**: Who cares about your stupid door? What I need is more important—your hair!

Claire looks at Vendetta confusingly.

**Claire**: Okay, okay, I am… creeped out, confused, flattered, and— PISSED OFF.

Claire grabs a bat.

**Claire**: Get out of my house, NOW!

Edgar, behind her, is frightened by her.

**Edgar**: I'm gonna go…

**Vendetta**: Why aren't you threatened by me?! Do you have any idea who I am?! I create giant monsters that can stomp you to dea—

Claire fires a flame at Vendetta, who shours in panic, and the feline witch fires a couple more at a Vendetta who dodges, and then jumps over to hide behind a bunch of stuff. Claire then walks over to where Vendetta hid, and knocks over the stuff, and there appears to be nothing. Then suddenly, Grudge appears, grabs the top of Claire's head, and throws her into a wall. Claire, enraged, rushes towards Vendetta weilding a baseball bat. Vendetta then repeatedly gets beaten by Claire's bat. In retaliation, Vendetta punches Claire in the face, and commands Grudge to get her.

Grudge goes to get her before he's interrupted by Scaroar,

**Scaroar**: I am Scaroar. How dare you wake me from my slumber.

...and the two then slap fight each other.

Vendetta and Claire keep punching each other until Vendetta grabs the front collar of Claire's skirt and throws her into a wall while laying on her back.

**Claire**: Ow!.. Really? Another wall?

…she says as she coughs up dust.

**Claire**: You guys can't even be original with how you hit me!

Claire, on the ground in the corner of the room, drinks a potion, and a creature, the manifestation of her anger, comes out of her hand, and goes to Vendetta, pulls her towards Claire while she's holding her bat, and hits Vendetta with it, launching her through the roof. Claire comes out of her house through her back door and sees Vendetta after she increased her own size to be larger than a house. Then, a giant-sized squirrel runs towards Claire. Claire calmly roasts the squirrel with fire from her fingertips until the squirrel turns into a pile of bones.

After this, a jar with a slug inside falls out of Vendetta's pocket, which breaks, leaving the slug out in the open. Claire then runs over, and hits the slug high up to hit Vendetta. After being hit by the slug, Vendetta shrinks to her normal size. Vendetta then gets chased by Claire, who is now instead weilding a broomstick. Vendetta runs towards a house, throws some explosive pigeons at Claire which miss, opens the door, and closes it. Claire immediately breaks down the door, and sees Vendetta hiding under a table.

Vendetta points forward.

**Vendetta**: EXPLOSIVE BIRDS!!!

Claire slowly turns around, and then too realizes that a trio of explosive pigeons are rushing at the house. The two scream in horror as the entire house explodes. After the explosion, the camera shows Vendetta on the ground, coveted in Claire's blood and ash, and she opens her eyes…

## Retrospective Analysis

**Note: The script shown in this section isn't the one said in the episode, it is just what was written prior to the episode's upload date.**

So, why did Vendetta win? Well, initially this seemed very even of a fight if you count the comics, since Claire can bring dead people from the grave.

But even then, Vendetta has just insane hax. She can create tornadoes and increase and decrease her, and others' size as examples. Even though Claire can create fire from her fingertips, she has never shown to actually melt anything but a plant or something.

Meanwhile, Vendetta has survived an explosion that destroyed this statue.

Vendetta is an elementary school girl, so about 3.4 feet tall. Using this measurement and assuming the material is granite, we can assume that the statue is at most 21,640.32 feet in volume of stone. And Vendetta made fiends that both destroyed that, and exploded her so hard it launched her high up in the air and she hit the floor. If she can survive an explosion like this, this means Claire has almost, if not no kill options for Vendetta.

Yes, sometimes Claire can go into a rage mode, But she only was able to break a small piece of ice. Even if she was somehow more enraged and used a weapon, she is likely to not be able to even pierce the same statue Vendetta was both able to destroy, and survive the destruction of. Meanwhile, Vendetta had many ways of killing Claire, like, maybe literally stomping her either by shrinking her or increasing her own size, making a tornado, etc.

Claire DID have a win condition. And that's the clowns she summons that can grant wishes… now, she could theoretically wish for Vendetta to be dead, but this comes with many problems. 1. Claire massively prefers doing things traditionally instead of wishing for it. 2. There is a high chance that she will word her wish badly, and the wish clowns are mischievous, so they'll take everything Claire says seriously to give her something that's kind of useless to her. So all in all, Vendetta had this in the bag.

## Trivia

Both additionally have a nice and kind character in their series (Edgar and Charlotte for *The Summoning* and *Making Fiends* respectively), which are treated in opposite ways by Claire and Vendetta (Claire treating Edgar as a friend, while Vendetta, on the other hand, wants to murder Charlotte).
* This is the first episode with battle music.
* This is the first episode with fully animated sequences.
* This is the first episode where the fight lasts longer than 3 minutes.
