'How does it feel to be different?' [Dioxide x Caits]

Even Big Boss' immense power could not allow him to see through Cody's super-bright light. He shielded his eyes with his left arm, and took swings with his right at the swift light-user. In between physical and light attacks, Big Boss swung and swung into the air, attempting to find a moment to critically strike. That was not likely, considering the brightness that consumed the room.

The light itself did not burn his skin. In fact, it was like a road surface on the hottest summer day; his skin took the heat very well, and he bore the pain with an incredibly high tolerance.

"If you do make it out of here, do send my regards when she finds out not a single piece of data in this place is true. The truth is in my head, and it will die with me," he spoke through gritted teeth as he slowly figured out the pattern.

Pulse of light... punch.... punch... pulse of light... orb attack... kick... punch...

For a brief second, Big Boss opened his eyes wide, and though it stung and tears blurred his vision, it was more than enough to see the next move.

There...

Cody's next physical attack was met with a mighty, steel-like kick that broke through his shield and his ribs, puncturing and rupturing his lungs as the air was gushed out of him with the velocity he travelled. Soon, the light faded from the room as Cody flung to the ruins of the barracks the soldiers held their formation. There, Cody held the side of his body where it caved in. The next second, Big Boss was on top of him with an unarmed RPG in his hand. He swung it to the right and brought it down on Cody like a golf club hitting the white ball. Cody flew to the side amidst the explosion, and Big Boss walked out of the smoke, small shrapnel pieces embedded into him like sand on one's feet at the beach.

Big Boss stood and listened as he heard the helicopters flying by, and the explosions in the ambiance.

"Ah... sweet battle. I missed having a proper challenge. I wasn't always obese, mind you," he spoke as he moved, circling Cody beginning his monologue again.

"My ability is multi-fold, an amalgamation of powers that solidifies my capabilities extending the very limits of the human capacity, and then more. Nothing was difficult for me. I gained honours as the best military technical strategist, and resource management, but I was still known for my formidable strength. I had to gain weight and hold back my strength to cull suspicion of my being an Anomaly - not because I was afraid, but because I was smart and got whatever I wanted with being the most valuable asset next to the Anomalies themselves in Anomaly Research.

Why else do you think I am fighting you, assured that I will win?"

I'm legitimately so excited for when we start Part 2 of our story.

I've got new roles for you, and new characters for us.

I have an assignment for you soon. >:)

'How does it feel to be different?' [Dioxide x Caits]

Alright, just making sure!

I can't believe we've been writing for this long!

'How does it feel to be different?' [Dioxide x Caits]

Quick question! Can Cody still be touched? Is he tangible in his current state? :D

Have you never done/seen a Nation RP?

It's when you write up yourself as the leader of a nation, be it a whole country, or a government, or a society of any sorts - democratic, authoritarian, fascist, economical, or autarkic. You then write with or against your fellow RPers based on different aspects such as internal and external affairs, diplomacy, military, friendly or belligerent. It gets very in-depth, so there's a lot of history that you have to write up, and a lot of characteristics that you have to maintain and develop. xDDDD

'How does it feel to be different?' [Dioxide x Caits]

Awesome sure, but no one knows me hahaha. My expertise isn't in just superpowers writing, haha. I just don't do that many others. I once did a Nation RP, for crying out loud hahah.

Awesome! Write as long as you can. I know you can!

'How does it feel to be different?' [Dioxide x Caits]

Hahaha
No one actually knows me on RPG

You are the only one I talk to here hahah

Atmospheric music - applicable to both halves of post

The UNARM facility was quickly overwhelmed by military units. The air was covered with swarms of Cobras and Apaches, strangely targeting friendly UNARM personnel and all sorts of infrastructure was being decimated. Though the stream of helicopters could not possibly be endless, their sheer numbers with their high-speed mobility blanketed the sky and the ground. The ground was no exception, as troops were being dropped in from the sky, and APCs, jeeps, and tanks took over all the roads. All over, they were converging from the outside in, killing everything off in a death circle.

Nearby, a military jeep was charging at Agent Caits at high-speeds, gunfire directed at the rogue agent. Try and dodge as she might, she could not escape the shooter's aim in open ground. The bullet stream was mere feet away when a huge glowing red figure came and collided with the jeep, crashing into its right side, sending the vehicle flying, tumbling into a building side before exploding upon impact.

Gershwin had since grown double in size, now standing at a towering 10 feet (3 meters) tall. Her arms had elongated, and her reach seemed longer than her height. Her legs were now triple-jointed, almost animal-like, but there was nothing natural about what Gershwin had become. The horns on her head were now as prominent as those on rams or bulls. Her body was covered in armour-like spikes. But perhaps the most astonishing was that she was on fire. Her head seemed to not be connected by neck but by a constant ring of red flames. In fact, in all her joints and orifices, fire seemed to spit out uncontrollable, as if the physical manifestation of her anger and pain, even now, could not be contained in her demonic form.

She stepped forward, her footsteps left ablaze in a hail of fire, and charged towards Agent Caits.

The Agent acted quickly, and side-stepped the raging being, but realized that Gershwin hadn't targeted her, but the tank further away. She leaped taller than the surrounding buildings before coming down, slamming herself onto the tank's top. Her sharp claws pierced through the metal and through the human flesh that operated the vehicle, now a toy in comparison to Gershwin.

Gershwin stood tall and turned to face Agent Caits. It took all her effort to articulate her following words in the most unruly voice:

"Make sure.... people know about this..."

Gershwin turned to charge at another group. Behind the agent approached soldiers on motorcycles, firing at her.

The chamber room doors had been barricaded and blocked from both sides. However, this was no problem for Big Boss. He paced himself before running straight through the doors. The flying debris reached the other side of the room, and Cody had to make an effort to shield himself with his light powers to deflect the incoming projectiles. The wood split upon impact, the metals - the guns and explosives - bent and exploded, and even the incapacitated soldiers broke and rag-dolled, now deformed and distorted beyond recognition. When Cody put his shield down, there stood in front of him, his massive adversary.

"I suppose this is the part where I start my monologue. Corny as it may be, I am willing to do it. Either way, neither of us are making it out of this facility alive. You see, you and that stupid girl managed to break our systems of controlling you Subjects, and now with the effect of the rogue Agent Caits, the UN has necessitated the complete eradication of our secret project.

In other words, you've ruined me. You stupid FUCKING kid."

The massive, morbidly obese, 6'10" man flexed and engaged all his muscles. At first, the whole scene looked like a large child having a jittery fit. Soon, however, his clothes loosened off his body as if he was shrinking. Soon, his trousers fell off his waist, and his coat and polo rested upon his broad shoulders. As if dramatically, Big Boss reached and tore apart his clothes, revealing a nude but unnaturally muscular, ripped human being.



(Author's note: he does not have 6 eyes and grey skin; This is a reference to his body-shape.)

Big Boss, the once incredibly fat office-worker, was now an Olympian-level strong-muscle man. He had no shame for his stark nudity, and for what reason should he, when his body seemed the pinnacle - the absolute perfection - of what the man could achieve, and then some.

"Tell me: what do you see?"

Cody replied: "I see nothing but the darkest of evil. You will not win." In both his hands, light gathered into orbs and readied himself to fire them at Big Boss. The target but simply smiled before he suddenly vanished.


(Author's note: gif reference of the sentence above: Big Boss moved so quickly that the human eye, even the Anomaly eye, could not perceive it.)

Big Boss dashed to the side, faster than Cody could even react, and before Cody could strengthen his shield, the hulking man punched his giant fist at Cody's temple. The shield could deflect a normal man's punch and even bullets, but the ridiculous force behind Big Boss' attack sent Cody flying, smashing into the side wall.

With his hypersensitive senses, Cody was dazed and hurt, shocked at the first real challenge to his powers. If he wasn't careful, he could actually be killed before he knew it. He readied and bolstered his shield but even before he could stand, Big Boss' hand caught his neck, squeezing effortlessly as if the neck was cotton candy, and threw Cody from floor to wall, again, and again, and again, before throwing him back to the center of the room. Before Cody could land, Big Boss dashed and kicked him mid-air, sending him flying to the far-side of the room. From there, Big Boss did a power pose, and gloated, laughing maniacally:

"I will not win!? I WILL NOT WIN!? YOU STUPID ANIMAL. I'VE ALREADY LOST. NEITHER OF US ARE GETTING OUT OF HERE ALIVE. BUT I AM MAKING SURE YOU DIE BECAUSE OF ME."

He laughed again, waiting for Cody's next move, if there was one.

I meant what Gershwin said in a way that you could consider trying to save as much data as you can. The plan is they will destroy everything. The world may or may not ever know what happened here.

'How does it feel to be different?' [Dioxide x Caits]

Come on now hahaha

What's to be shy about?

(wishes that I'd listen to my own advice)

I'll write up a post after work today! I actually act out battle scenes in my head with music, so I might link in more pictures and maybe even link you a song!
