With the Wiedergänger's being freed and the remaining soldiers gearing up with whatever they could find, he decided he would arm The Marionettes as well and commanded them to retrieve The Lightning Bolters, elegantly crafted rifles encased in brass and gold and adorned with intricate gears, they were prototype weapons that combined elements of steam-powered machinery with electric propulsion systems and the small crystals they were fitted with that harnessed electricity from the air around them, allowing each shot to propel electrically charged projectiles that packed a deadly punch. He hadn't quite gotten around to mass producing them just yet but the ones they did have were still quite powerful and he was curious to see how she'd handle such firepower. Annabelle meanwhile was running down the hallways of this labyrinthine cave without any real idea of where she was going. She would run one hallway and then down another hallway without any German Monster encounters or even the soldiers. She was following the pipes to try and figure out where she was going. This place didn't exactly have any maps to give her directions after all. It boggled her mind as to how anybody could navigate this place with any idea of where they were going.  As she ventured further, the scenery remained unchanged: the cave, the machinery, the lights, the pipes...not a single clue to indicate her whereabouts! It felt like she was trapped in an endless loop, going round and round. Each twist and turn only added to the confusion, turning the cavern into an enigmatic maze that defied all logic and reason. She sprinted tirelessly until she stumbled upon a rail, with a cart swiftly passing by. A glimmer of hope sparkled in Annabelle's eyes as she decided to follow the rail's chosen path. Surely, this rail had to lead somewhere! Maybe not to the prison or wherever they held their captives, but at least to a destination more purposeful than aimlessly circling around like a fly. Logically speaking, if the items in the cart were being shipped down the rail, then there would be someone at the end waiting to begin assembling it. She kept running until she reached a gate on the rails and she smiled. Finally some damn progress! Annabelle ran up to it, knelt down, grabbed it and then she forced it upward and open and then she kept walking inside. It was a simple room that the carts were transported through but she had to question why it was so expansive and why it needed a gate. Was it just part of the cave that they put the gate door on? But then why put all the metal on the walls? She got her answer when the slots opened up and flamethrowers sprayed out of the walls and hosed her down with the raging flames. (Well. That answers that question!) She noted as she recoiled from the flames. The heat was intense and it felt like it was growing worse with every step! She could feel the heat emanating from the flames, she could feel the heat suffocating her, the flames dancing across the skin but she kept on pushing forward and powering on through. (It's a clever trap to be sure, but, did he really think it would work on me?) She kept walking forward until she reached the door at the end of the room and she reached out and felt on it. It was the exact same as the other one so she grabbed onto the door and forced it open and then she slammed it shut down behind her. She stumbled backwards, away from the raging flames of the inferno room, and tried to get her bearings. She was fine but she was also now wreathed in flames once again which made it a little hard to see. Annoyed, Annabelle fell down on her back and rolled around and around until she was able to start dampening the flames. She sat back up and began patting down the remaining flames until they went out. After she finished brushing herself off, Annabelle stood up and resumed walking forward only for machine guns to pop out of the walls around her. (Oh hey, more Death Traps! Fun!) They opened fire on her and she shielded herself with her arms and then ran forward until she reached the door at the end and she slammed into it and knocked it over. Annabelle rolled into the next room and stood up to face whatever was coming for her next. (Okay, see, at least that shit made sense. The bullets didn't feel good either but at least they made sense. Who the fuck sets up that many damn flamethrowers? Seriously?!) She was just getting to her feet when the door opened on its own down the tunnel to reveal another one of the Metal Monsters.  "Of course. Alright then. COME ON!" The Monster did not need to be told twice and they immediately charged each other! The thundering booming footfalls of the monster echoing off the walls around them with each massive step of the mechanical horror. She reached him first and immediately started boxing. She quickly began hammering away at its helmet with repeated left and right combinations. There wasn't much room to maneuver in a narrow tunnel like this though so she would have to be careful in how eh dodged around its own retaliatory strikes. The Monster swiped at her in retaliation so she leaped backwards to dodge it. Annabelle landed on her feet and then she approached him again. The Monster resumed swinging back at her but Annabelle dodged and weaved around his strikes while retaliating with her own on its chest and helmet until it lunged at her with a surprising amount of speed, grabbed onto her and swung her around into the wall so hard that she broke into the wall! She withstood the impact however and continued punching it in the face in retaliation. The Monster responded by grabbing her and swinging her into the opposite wall, smashing her into that, swinging her into the wall again, lifting her up, slamming her into the ground and then bringing down the claws on its hand towards her face but Annabelle blocked it with her forearm! Annabelle and The Monster struggled against each other until she managed to throw its claws off of her so The Monster lifted her up into the air with its other hand and Annabelle kicked out with her feet and kicked its helmet again to force it to let her go. She landed on her feet and The Monster immediately recovered from being kicked in the face and attacked her again. The fight intensified as The Monster's attacks began increasing in ferocity. Annabelle went on the defensive, backing away and dodging around its attacks and leaving them to either hit the air or the walls in which case it would just smash into and tear through them before it continued its assault on her. Annabelle continued retaliating with her own punches and kicks when she could but she was focusing on evasion right now. Annabelle kept the area in mind though and she knew where the door was so Annabelle suddenly backflipped backwards, flipped over the door, grabbed onto it and then she rushed the monster again. The Monster thrusted its claws forward again and she used the metal door as a shield only for The Monster to plunge its claws straight through it! She backed off and then she flipped over it while The Monster was distracted by tearing the door apart. Annabelle landed behind it, backflipped again, put sufficient distance between them and then she knelt down and smiled. The Monster turned around to face her again but it was too slow and Annabelle rushed it with a Speed Boost, slammed into the monster, and carried it through the air until they flew into the previous tunnel that was lined with machine guns! Annabelle let it go and sent it flying down the tunnel until it was smashed into the door leading to the flamethrower room! The Monster smashed its hands against the walls and it stood right back up and squared off with her as the machine guns began spraying both of them. But that was part of Annabelle's plan. Not only would this give her some good intel as to whether or not these things were completely bulletproof but just in case the prisoners she'd be rescuing needed to escape through here, it would be a good idea if the guns were either destroyed or empty. Same with the flamethrowers. Besides, the more hits and flames she hit the more energy she'd build up. That would important when she decided to obliterate this entire mountain base. Annabelle watched as The Monster approached her and the bullets bounced off of it. It did seem to slow down a bit from the constant barrage but it was still coming at her. That was good. This would give her an advantage. Annabelle closed in on The Monster and she began exchanging punches with it once again. The Monster attacked her with a ruthless relentless onslaught of punches, swipes and claw slashes while Annabelle dodged and weaved around his punches while retaliating with her own, unleashing a series of thunderous punches at The Monster's midsection. Each strike reverberated through the tunnels like cannon fire even above the constant barrage of gunfire endlessly hosing them both! But, The Monster was able to withstand the brutal assault and retaliated with a sudden metal uppercut that caught her jaw and sent her flying backwards across the tunnel until she hit her head on the upper part of the doorway on the far end of the tunnel. She landed on her feet and groaned as she rubbed her jaw. The Monster wasn't about to let her run away however and it fired its right hand on her on a long chain! Annabelle saw it coming however and she raised up her arm and let it latch onto her. The Monster's arm quickly retracted and she leaped towards her while pulling her other arm back and their punches collided so hard that an air burst shockwave erupted from the collision that briefly pushed the bullets around them off course and pushed Annabelle away from it. She recovered and unleashed a barrage of thunderous lightning fast punches on its helmet until she finally managed to knock it off of its face to reveal the monstrous mechanical face of The Monster. Its face was a twisted metal replication of a face with its 'mouth' wide open in a Cheshire Cat Grin and a single shining glowing hellish red eye staring at her. Annabelle smiled and she continued to bob and weave around its attacks before knocking its arm aside and lunging in to finish it only for The Monster to release a wide spray of flames from a built in flamethrower in its mouth! Annabelle stepped back from surprise as the flames washed over, engulfed her, consumed her. The Monster immediately seized this chance to grab onto Annabelle and it began viciously assaulting her. She was being smashed and crashed into the floor and walls around her with a wild raging berserk ferocity! *BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!*
Annabelle gritted her teeth and withstood the relentless assaults. During the attack however she reached into the wall, grabbed onto a gun and pulled it out of the wall and then she began repeatedly hitting the monster with it in retaliation while hitting it with her own punches and then she kicked out at it and forced it to release her! Annabelle landed on her feet and stumbled backwards and she sucked in air. While taking her breath in, Annabelle looked at the broken remains of the gun and she fell against a wall, grabbed onto a gun and tore it out of the wall as well, tossed it into the air, caught it and then she began attacking The Monster with it again. The gun was quickly broken down but the impacts made it fall back and then she tossed it aside, leaned back and drove a vicious haymaker into its chest that landed so hard it sent it flying backwards again, through the metal door behind it and into the flamethrower room! Annabelle took a breather, recovered, rolled her shoulders and then she ran into the fight again, leaped at it, leaped into the inferno, and she cracked it across its metal face once again! She landed on her feet and resumed her attack. Despite being surrounded by flames now she just flat out began laying into it with a vicious boxing combination of her own, absolutely hammering it! The result was a brutal savage fist fight between her and the monster among the flames surrounding them. Their fists collided in a deafening clash that reverberated through the room. Each blow sent shockwaves across their surroundings as they fought tooth and nail for supremacy. Annabelle screamed in rage as she continued slamming her fists into The Monster who only replied with metallic screeching while lunging at her with lightning speed, grappling her and forcing her backwards into the wall so hard that she was smashed into the flamethrower hard enough to crumple it and cause it to explode! The resulting fireball scorched her back but Annabelle managed to withstand it and focus on the fight. She repeatedly punched The Monster until it stumbled backwards and released her. Annabelle then used a Speed Burst to SLAM herself into it and smash The Metal Monster into the wall and the flamethrowers behind it! The impact shook the room and caused pieces of the ceiling to fall down onto them alongside the dust and pebbles mixing with the pieces of the wall exploding out on them with the flames. She pressed it further into the wall and then she pulled it out, swung it into the opposite wall, and threw it at it! The Monster smashed into the wall face first and then Annabelle leaped onto it, pulled its head back, and then she began repeatedly smashing The Monster's head into the wall with savagery nearly matching what The Monster displayed when it was ragdolling her earlier! She smashed its head into the wall again and again, over and over, more and more, in a brutal savage manner until she felt something tearing across her leg and Annabelle dropped it and fell over onto her back and screamed as she grabbed her leg. "AHHHHHHHHH! Wh-what the hell?!" She tried to figure out what was wrong with her leg but it was hard to see it properly through the flames obscuring her vision. She could at least tell that something had indeed cut into her. That was definitely new...she couldn't remember the last time she fought someone that could cut her like that! She gritted her teeth and began pulling herself up to her feet. Or at least she tried because she was having trouble standing up with that wound on her leg. She tried to figure out what was going on. There was...something there. Something she could just about hear over The Monster's flailing and thunderous footsteps and the flames. Something was...spinning and...grinding....some kind of saw...a mini-saw? Wait, no, that wasn't the word...a buzzsaw? Did The Monster have a fucking buzzsaw in its arm? Was that what cut her? It had to be! But it didn't matter. So she had a cut on her leg. SO WHAT?! She could still fight! This wouldn't stop her! It hurt like hell but she could withstand it. Annabelle backed away while favoring her injured leg and keeping her fist up. "Is that all you got? Come on already! Come and get me!" The battle raged on, with both combatants unleashing their full force upon each other, crashing into walls and shaking the cavern with each blow. The Monster was finally starting to weaken, but Annabelle was also feeling the toll of the fight. The Monster's attacks were excruciatingly painful, each one feeling like a high-speed car collision. Its saw blade sliced through her, while the room grew hotter and smoke filled the air, making it difficult to see and breathe. All of this on top of the week she spent without sleep fighting for every inch of ground she gained. Even for Annabelle it was a Herculean undertaking and she was finally starting to feel the effects of the war. But she would not, could not, give up. There were still people here. People who needed her help. People who were counting on her to save them. She could not give up. She could not surrender. No matter how incredibly hard this was. No matter how bad of a beating she was taking. No matter the pain exploding from her body from every hit or the blood spraying from her wounds, Annabelle could not surrender. So she just kept punching him. She kept hammering him. She kept smashing him against the walls and floor and The Monster at last began to breakdown from the beating she was giving it and the rising heat around them. In desperation The Monster released its chain claw again. Grabbing onto her face and sending her flying backwards across the cavern. She slammed into the wall and then it retracted the claw but Annabelle broke the chain, flipped over The Monster, turned it around and forcibly slammed The Monster's claw hand into its face as hard as she could! The metallic claws broke through its eye in an explosion of sparks and circuitry and The Monster stumbled backwards and fell down on its back. Annabelle immediately seized the chance to jump on top of it and drive her fist into the claw again and smash the claw through other side of its head and destroy it. The Monster spasmed briefly and then it went still. She'd done it again. She'd killed another one of them. She hurt like hell and she felt like shit but she'd defeated another one of Silvio's Monsters. Annabelle stood up, coughing and hacking from the smoke that now completely surrounded her, and then she slumped against the wall and began feeling across it. Finding a flamethrower, she ripped it out of the wall and threw it to the ground and then she began fumbling around for the others and she began ripping the others out of the wall and she smashed them down to the ground and then she stumbled out of the room in a blind haze. - She eventually stopped and fell to the ground in another cavern and she rolled around to put out the flames. It took her a while but she was eventually able to snuff them out. She stood up gasping for breath, took a few steps and then she collapsed on the ground again, still coughing and gasping and desperately sucking in air. She was bloody and bruised and burned from her fight with The Monster, her costume was likely as scorched as her body, and the best thing she could do right now was stay there and wait for her wounds to heal before she continued. Two down. Two down. She'd already defeated two of Silvio's Monsters. They were strong as hell, certainly giving her the best fights she'd had in years, but she'd managed to do it. It didn't matter how many more there were. She would smash them and everything else in her way to save the captives and get them out of here. Then she would go find Silvio, punch HIS head off, and then she would obliterate this whole damn hellhole laboratory and burn it down to ashes. But first she needed to recover. She felt pain in her chest, she felt pain in her arms and in her mind. She tried the best she could to block out the pain, to find some form of meditative trance in order to cope with the agonizing sensations, but nothing came to mind. Blood dripped from her wounds and every muscle in her body ached from the pain and burns she'd endured. She squeezed her eyes shut tight and her face turned into a grimace. Swallowing the pain and ignoring it the best she could was her only option right now until her body finished mending itself. It took a while but she gradually felt a warm sensation spread throughout her body like a soothing balm had been applied to her wounds. She felt a surge of energy coursing through her veins as if an invisible force embraced her, mending every wound and revitalizing her weary spirit. The deep gashes on her body sealed shut with barely a trace left behind. Broken bones realigned themselves with audible cracks as they fused back together seamlessly. The burns faded away replaced with healthy new flesh. Her bruises faded away until there wasn't a single mark left to remind her of the brutal battle that just took place. "Ohhhh yeah, that's better." She coughed a couple of times and then stopped, wiped her mouth, and then she stood back up to continue the mission. But first....there was one last thing to take care of. - After she finished ripping the guns out of the walls and discarding all but one of them she continued to descend further into the laboratory. Dragging one of the broken guns with her as a club. |

The Monster resumed swinging back at her but Annabelle dodged and weaved around his strikes while retaliating with her own on its chest and helmet until it lunged at her with a surprising amount of speed, grabbed onto her and swung her around into the wall so hard that she broke into the wall! She withstood the impact however and continued punching it in the face in retaliation. The Monster responded by grabbing her and swinging her into the opposite wall, smashing her into that, swinging her into the wall again, lifting her up, slamming her into the ground and then bringing down the claws on its hand towards her face but Annabelle blocked it with her forearm! Annabelle and The Monster struggled against each other until she managed to throw its claws off of her so The Monster lifted her up into the air with its other hand and Annabelle kicked out with her feet and kicked its helmet again to force it to let her go. She landed on her feet and The Monster immediately recovered from being kicked in the face and attacked her again. The fight intensified as The Monster's attacks began increasing in ferocity. Annabelle went on the defensive, backing away and dodging around its attacks and leaving them to either hit the air or the walls in which case it would just smash into and tear through them before it continued its assault on her. Annabelle continued retaliating with her own punches and kicks when she could but she was focusing on evasion right now. Annabelle kept the area in mind though and she knew where the door was so Annabelle suddenly backflipped backwards, flipped over the door, grabbed onto it and then she rushed the monster again. The Monster thrusted its claws forward again and she used the metal door as a shield only for The Monster to plunge its claws straight through it! She backed off and then she flipped over it while The Monster was distracted by tearing the door apart. Annabelle landed behind it, backflipped again, put sufficient distance between them and then she knelt down and smiled. The Monster turned around to face her again but it was too slow and Annabelle rushed it with a Speed Boost, slammed into the monster, and carried it through the air until they flew into the previous tunnel that was lined with machine guns! Annabelle let it go and sent it flying down the tunnel until it was smashed into the door leading to the flamethrower room! The Monster smashed its hands against the walls and it stood right back up and squared off with her as the machine guns began spraying both of them. But that was part of Annabelle's plan. Not only would this give her some good intel as to whether or not these things were completely bulletproof but just in case the prisoners she'd be rescuing needed to escape through here, it would be a good idea if the guns were either destroyed or empty. Same with the flamethrowers. Besides, the more hits and flames she hit the more energy she'd build up. That would important when she decided to obliterate this entire mountain base. Annabelle watched as The Monster approached her and the bullets bounced off of it. It did seem to slow down a bit from the constant barrage but it was still coming at her. That was good. This would give her an advantage. Annabelle closed in on The Monster and she began exchanging punches with it once again. The Monster attacked her with a ruthless relentless onslaught of punches, swipes and claw slashes while Annabelle dodged and weaved around his punches while retaliating with her own, unleashing a series of thunderous punches at The Monster's midsection. Each strike reverberated through the tunnels like cannon fire even above the constant barrage of gunfire endlessly hosing them both! But, The Monster was able to withstand the brutal assault and retaliated with a sudden metal uppercut that caught her jaw and sent her flying backwards across the tunnel until she hit her head on the upper part of the doorway on the far end of the tunnel. She landed on her feet and groaned as she rubbed her jaw. The Monster wasn't about to let her run away however and it fired its right hand on her on a long chain! Annabelle saw it coming however and she raised up her arm and let it latch onto her. The Monster's arm quickly retracted and she leaped towards her while pulling her other arm back and their punches collided so hard that an air burst shockwave erupted from the collision that briefly pushed the bullets around them off course and pushed Annabelle away from it. She recovered and unleashed a barrage of thunderous lightning fast punches on its helmet until she finally managed to knock it off of its face to reveal the monstrous mechanical face of The Monster. Its face was a twisted metal replication of a face with its 'mouth' wide open in a Cheshire Cat Grin and a single shining glowing hellish red eye staring at her. Annabelle smiled and she continued to bob and weave around its attacks before knocking its arm aside and lunging in to finish it only for The Monster to release a wide spray of flames from a built in flamethrower in its mouth! Annabelle stepped back from surprise as the flames washed over, engulfed her, consumed her. The Monster immediately seized this chance to grab onto Annabelle and it began viciously assaulting her. She was being smashed and crashed into the floor and walls around her with a wild raging berserk ferocity! *BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!*
Annabelle gritted her teeth and withstood the relentless assaults. During the attack however she reached into the wall, grabbed onto a gun and pulled it out of the wall and then she began repeatedly hitting the monster with it in retaliation while hitting it with her own punches and then she kicked out at it and forced it to release her! Annabelle landed on her feet and stumbled backwards and she sucked in air. While taking her breath in, Annabelle looked at the broken remains of the gun and she fell against a wall, grabbed onto a gun and tore it out of the wall as well, tossed it into the air, caught it and then she began attacking The Monster with it again. The gun was quickly broken down but the impacts made it fall back and then she tossed it aside, leaned back and drove a vicious haymaker into its chest that landed so hard it sent it flying backwards again, through the metal door behind it and into the flamethrower room! Annabelle took a breather, recovered, rolled her shoulders and then she ran into the fight again, leaped at it, leaped into the inferno, and she cracked it across its metal face once again! She landed on her feet and resumed her attack. Despite being surrounded by flames now she just flat out began laying into it with a vicious boxing combination of her own, absolutely hammering it! The result was a brutal savage fist fight between her and the monster among the flames surrounding them. Their fists collided in a deafening clash that reverberated through the room. Each blow sent shockwaves across their surroundings as they fought tooth and nail for supremacy. Annabelle screamed in rage as she continued slamming her fists into The Monster who only replied with metallic screeching while lunging at her with lightning speed, grappling her and forcing her backwards into the wall so hard that she was smashed into the flamethrower hard enough to crumple it and cause it to explode! The resulting fireball scorched her back but Annabelle managed to withstand it and focus on the fight. She repeatedly punched The Monster until it stumbled backwards and released her. Annabelle then used a Speed Burst to SLAM herself into it and smash The Metal Monster into the wall and the flamethrowers behind it! The impact shook the room and caused pieces of the ceiling to fall down onto them alongside the dust and pebbles mixing with the pieces of the wall exploding out on them with the flames. She pressed it further into the wall and then she pulled it out, swung it into the opposite wall, and threw it at it! The Monster smashed into the wall face first and then Annabelle leaped onto it, pulled its head back, and then she began repeatedly smashing The Monster's head into the wall with savagery nearly matching what The Monster displayed when it was ragdolling her earlier! She smashed its head into the wall again and again, over and over, more and more, in a brutal savage manner until she felt something tearing across her leg and Annabelle dropped it and fell over onto her back and screamed as she grabbed her leg. "AHHHHHHHHH! Wh-what the hell?!" She tried to figure out what was wrong with her leg but it was hard to see it properly through the flames obscuring her vision. She could at least tell that something had indeed cut into her. That was definitely new...she couldn't remember the last time she fought someone that could cut her like that! She gritted her teeth and began pulling herself up to her feet. Or at least she tried because she was having trouble standing up with that wound on her leg. She tried to figure out what was going on. There was...something there. Something she could just about hear over The Monster's flailing and thunderous footsteps and the flames. Something was...spinning and...grinding....some kind of saw...a mini-saw? Wait, no, that wasn't the word...a buzzsaw? Did The Monster have a fucking buzzsaw in its arm? Was that what cut her? It had to be! But it didn't matter. So she had a cut on her leg. SO WHAT?! She could still fight! This wouldn't stop her! It hurt like hell but she could withstand it. Annabelle backed away while favoring her injured leg and keeping her fist up. "Is that all you got? Come on already! Come and get me!" The battle raged on, with both combatants unleashing their full force upon each other, crashing into walls and shaking the cavern with each blow. The Monster was finally starting to weaken, but Annabelle was also feeling the toll of the fight. The Monster's attacks were excruciatingly painful, each one feeling like a high-speed car collision. Its saw blade sliced through her, while the room grew hotter and smoke filled the air, making it difficult to see and breathe. All of this on top of the week she spent without sleep fighting for every inch of ground she gained. Even for Annabelle it was a Herculean undertaking and she was finally starting to feel the effects of the war. But she would not, could not, give up. There were still people here. People who needed her help. People who were counting on her to save them. She could not give up. She could not surrender. No matter how incredibly hard this was. No matter how bad of a beating she was taking. No matter the pain exploding from her body from every hit or the blood spraying from her wounds, Annabelle could not surrender. So she just kept punching him. She kept hammering him. She kept smashing him against the walls and floor and The Monster at last began to breakdown from the beating she was giving it and the rising heat around them. In desperation The Monster released its chain claw again. Grabbing onto her face and sending her flying backwards across the cavern. She slammed into the wall and then it retracted the claw but Annabelle broke the chain, flipped over The Monster, turned it around and forcibly slammed The Monster's claw hand into its face as hard as she could! The metallic claws broke through its eye in an explosion of sparks and circuitry and The Monster stumbled backwards and fell down on its back. Annabelle immediately seized the chance to jump on top of it and drive her fist into the claw again and smash the claw through other side of its head and destroy it. The Monster spasmed briefly and then it went still. She'd done it again. She'd killed another one of them. She hurt like hell and she felt like shit but she'd defeated another one of Silvio's Monsters. Annabelle stood up, coughing and hacking from the smoke that now completely surrounded her, and then she slumped against the wall and began feeling across it. Finding a flamethrower, she ripped it out of the wall and threw it to the ground and then she began fumbling around for the others and she began ripping the others out of the wall and she smashed them down to the ground and then she stumbled out of the room in a blind haze. - She eventually stopped and fell to the ground in another cavern and she rolled around to put out the flames. It took her a while but she was eventually able to snuff them out. She stood up gasping for breath, took a few steps and then she collapsed on the ground again, still coughing and gasping and desperately sucking in air. She was bloody and bruised and burned from her fight with The Monster, her costume was likely as scorched as her body, and the best thing she could do right now was stay there and wait for her wounds to heal before she continued. Two down. Two down. She'd already defeated two of Silvio's Monsters. They were strong as hell, certainly giving her the best fights she'd had in years, but she'd managed to do it. It didn't matter how many more there were. She would smash them and everything else in her way to save the captives and get them out of here. Then she would go find Silvio, punch HIS head off, and then she would obliterate this whole damn hellhole laboratory and burn it down to ashes. But first she needed to recover. She felt pain in her chest, she felt pain in her arms and in her mind. She tried the best she could to block out the pain, to find some form of meditative trance in order to cope with the agonizing sensations, but nothing came to mind. Blood dripped from her wounds and every muscle in her body ached from the pain and burns she'd endured. She squeezed her eyes shut tight and her face turned into a grimace. Swallowing the pain and ignoring it the best she could was her only option right now until her body finished mending itself. It took a while but she gradually felt a warm sensation spread throughout her body like a soothing balm had been applied to her wounds. She felt a surge of energy coursing through her veins as if an invisible force embraced her, mending every wound and revitalizing her weary spirit. The deep gashes on her body sealed shut with barely a trace left behind. Broken bones realigned themselves with audible cracks as they fused back together seamlessly. The burns faded away replaced with healthy new flesh. Her bruises faded away until there wasn't a single mark left to remind her of the brutal battle that just took place. "Ohhhh yeah, that's better." She coughed a couple of times and then stopped, wiped her mouth, and then she stood back up to continue the mission. But first....there was one last thing to take care of. - After she finished ripping the guns out of the walls and discarding all but one of them she continued to descend further into the laboratory. Dragging one of the broken guns with her as a club. Silvio wasted no time before speaking up once more, reaching out to her through the intercom. "Absolutely remarkable, my dear Fraulein. It would be an extraordinary accomplishment for any human to defeat even one of my creations. But to conquer two? Astonishing! Annabelle, you have exceeded all expectations and truly impressed me." "Compliments appreciated, Silvio, but I'm still going to tear your head off when I find you." "You are more than welcome to take your chance if you make it that far. In the meantime, I was wondering if you could answer a question for me." "Ask away." "You have endured more pain and anguish than any human should ever have to endure. Why do you subject to all this suffering? "You could have chosen an easier path, you know. You could have lived a normal life without all of this agony or even forgotten about these insects and lived your life as a Queen that stands above the teeming masses. Yet, here you are: One woman against an army of monsters from out of your worst nightmares. Why? What exactly is it that you fight for?" "Damn you're stupid. You really don't understand a thing about me do you? I'm not better than humans just because I have Superpowers. Right now, in this War and the last, there are people all over the world doing their damnedest to make the world a better place, to pull off feats that others would consider impossible, without powers. The fact that I have them just means that I'm obligated to put in that much more effort to end this war and save whoever I can. If that means I have to wipe out you bastards and your Monsters? Then so be it. I may be just one person against all odds, but I believe that every act of kindness and bravery can make a difference in this world. And that is worth fighting for. Oh, and one more thing, Silvio, about your little monsters? Motherfucker...you haven't seen my nightmares. So I'll tell you what: Send all of them. Everything you've got. All of your little pets and puppets." "Interesting, interesting, do you really wish to fight all of them at once? Even with your magnificent abilities that would be an impossible challenge." "I've killed two of your Monsters and several puppets. So yeah. I want to go ahead and kill the rest. You have control of them, right? So send them to meet me. You guide me to where they are and then sit back in your little hidey hole and watch me tear them apart." Annabelle challenged. There was a momentary pause before he burst out laughing. His voice echoing out of the intercom in a dark distorted raspy cackle that echoed all around her as Annabelle continued trudging forward. After he finally calmed down and regained his composure he spoke up to her again. "Is that your challenge? Are you really so confident that you think that you can fight all of them at once?" "Of course. Besides, it would take too long to track all of them down. So just bring them all together at once so I can dismantle them all at once." Another raspy cackle echoed all around her before he spoke up again. "Alright. Alright. Okay. I'll take that bet. I'll gladly lead you to your death. Show me exactly how powerful you truly are, Miss Ruby." " Gladly." Annabelle replied with a wicked smile. (Oh Good this will save me time. Saving all of the prisoners with the monsters still running around would've been problematic. This way I can clear out all of them at once and then find the prisoners and get them out of here. It won't be easy, just two of those monsters one-on-one were extremely difficult, but I can't risk the prisoners being attacked by those things. I might not be able to fight AND protect them at the same time in that case. So eliminating them all at once is just the easiest solution.) Annabelle took a deep breath, slowly blew it out, and began mentally preparing herself for the fight. |

I might not be able to fight AND protect them at the same time in that case. So eliminating them all at once is just the easiest solution.) Annabelle took a deep breath, slowly blew it out, and began mentally preparing herself for the fight.  This place was a damn maze, an entire underground labyrinth, and Annabelle hated to admit it but she would've been lost completely without instructions. That was not to say however that she wouldn't be able to find her way back buuuut since she didn't have any way to mark herself she jabbed her hand into the wall and carved arrows into the cavern. This would allow Annabelle to not only find her way back just in case the Kraut was trying to fuck her over but also give the prisoners a way back in the event that he was telling the truth. Either way, the biggest things he needed to worry about right now was the monsters. Regardless, she continued to follow the instructions blaring overhead as she traversed the tunnels and carved the arrows into the walls around her. Tunnel after tunnel after tunnel. It was a winding path but she continued running through them. The good news about taking her time like this was it gave her more than enough time to recover from the fight. Her wounds were healed and her stamina had returned to her so she was ready to fight. It gave her time to strategize. The monsters were strong, at the very least close to her levels of power, and that last one's weapons had somehow been sharp enough to wound her so she would need to watch out for those. After dealing with two of them, she'd come to realize that she would need to focus on her speed and agility against them, wear them down, break them down and take them out. Then there was The Puppets. Annabelle knew she could deal with them easily enough but she would have to be sure that they wouldn't slow her down when fighting The Monsters. Speaking of which, there was no real telling what else he would send out to fight her so she would have to be extra careful. The most immediate problem was that the dark feeling from before was coming back to her. That sensation, that presence, she felt before was back and it was stronger than before. Annabelle wasn't mistaken earlier. There was something evil in here with her. It wasn't fear or dread of a looming battle, no, this was something evil. There was some kind of evil spirit inside of the mountain. She wasn't sure if it was Silvio, or something inside of him, or something...wait. Wait! That was it! That gunk, or oil, or tar, or whatever the hell it was! That had to be it! That shit was not natural. It made her sick when it covered her. Just like the poison gas cloud from earlier but...worse. Like it didn't belong in the world with them. She had to find out what it was and dispose of it. Silvio would be the one working on it, right? So she would need to force him to tell him about what it was. A few broken bones would go a long way to getting her the information she needed. He also would have kept notes and files about it, whatever it was, so she would need to find and read and those to find out more information about it. One thing at a time though! She had some monsters to kill! Annabelle kept on running until she emerged into a larger wide open cavern with several entrances and staircases leading every which way. "...Oh what the fuck? How is this even in a...what the hell's...ugh! Fucking lunatic." She groaned.  "Hey Asshole! Which way?!" She called out to Silvio. "You know we'd work much better together if you would refer to me as Professor. I'd like you to work on that while you're getting your head stomped into the ground." "I'd like you to remove your head from your ass but I don't see that happening anytime soon!" "Fraulein, I have never once said this about any of my test subjects, but I am going to enjoy watching you die screaming. Take the middle path and keep running through it until you find your way into The Arena." "You test your subjects in there often?" "Often, yes, but I specifically prepared it for you. For the day I test my wonderful creations against you in a fight to the death." "Then your wish is about to come true. Congratulations. Sit back and enjoy bitch. Because I'm going to absolutely dismantle all of them." "By all means, Fraulein, continue your blissful little dream. My wonderful creations will beat you back into reality." "Now who's dreaming?" Annabelle scoffed as she jumped down to the ground in front of the stairs and she hit the ground running, paused to carve more arrows into the cave wall, and then she kept running down the long lengthy path until she finally emerged out to behold a massive sprawling wide open stadium arena. It was a massive cavern that appeared to have somehow been hollowed out and a ceiling, lights, seats and multiple entrances. The seats were filled with an army of German Soldiers all of whom simultaneously stood up and applauded Annabelle as she entered! Lights flashed on and a whole army of The Monsters and Puppets emerged from the entrances on the other end.  "Now this...this is more like it." Annabelle responded with a smile as she walked into the middle of the arena. She punched her hand into her fist as she beheld the small army of monsters he'd prepared for her. These Monsters...even just one-on-one had given her serious trouble and now she was staring down a whole entire group of them. This was going to be one hell of a fight. |

Silvio wasted no time before speaking up once more, reaching out to her through the intercom. "Absolutely remarkable, my dear Fraulein. It would be an extraordinary accomplishment for any human to defeat even one of my creations. But to conquer two? Astonishing! Annabelle, you have exceeded all expectations and truly impressed me." "Compliments appreciated, Silvio, but I'm still going to tear your head off when I find you." "You are more than welcome to take your chance if you make it that far. In the meantime, I was wondering if you could answer a question for me." "Ask away." "You have endured more pain and anguish than any human should ever have to endure. Why do you subject to all this suffering? "You could have chosen an easier path, you know. You could have lived a normal life without all of this agony or even forgotten about these insects and lived your life as a Queen that stands above the teeming masses. Yet, here you are: One woman against an army of monsters from out of your worst nightmares. Why? What exactly is it that you fight for?" "Damn you're stupid. You really don't understand a thing about me do you? I'm not better than humans just because I have Superpowers. Right now, in this War and the last, there are people all over the world doing their damnedest to make the world a better place, to pull off feats that others would consider impossible, without powers. The fact that I have them just means that I'm obligated to put in that much more effort to end this war and save whoever I can. If that means I have to wipe out you bastards and your Monsters? Then so be it. I may be just one person against all odds, but I believe that every act of kindness and bravery can make a difference in this world. And that is worth fighting for. Oh, and one more thing, Silvio, about your little monsters? Motherfucker...you haven't seen my nightmares. So I'll tell you what: Send all of them. Everything you've got. All of your little pets and puppets." "Interesting, interesting, do you really wish to fight all of them at once? Even with your magnificent abilities that would be an impossible challenge." "I've killed two of your Monsters and several puppets. So yeah. I want to go ahead and kill the rest. You have control of them, right? So send them to meet me. You guide me to where they are and then sit back in your little hidey hole and watch me tear them apart." Annabelle challenged. There was a momentary pause before he burst out laughing. His voice echoing out of the intercom in a dark distorted raspy cackle that echoed all around her as Annabelle continued trudging forward. After he finally calmed down and regained his composure he spoke up to her again. "Is that your challenge? Are you really so confident that you think that you can fight all of them at once?" "Of course. Besides, it would take too long to track all of them down. So just bring them all together at once so I can dismantle them all at once." Another raspy cackle echoed all around her before he spoke up again. "Alright. Alright. Okay. I'll take that bet. I'll gladly lead you to your death. Show me exactly how powerful you truly are, Miss Ruby." " Gladly." Annabelle replied with a wicked smile. (Oh Good this will save me time. Saving all of the prisoners with the monsters still running around would've been problematic. This way I can clear out all of them at once and then find the prisoners and get them out of here. It won't be easy, just two of those monsters one-on-one were extremely difficult, but I can't risk the prisoners being attacked by those things. I might not be able to fight AND protect them at the same time in that case. So eliminating them all at once is just the easiest solution.) Annabelle took a deep breath, slowly blew it out, and began mentally preparing herself for the fight. This place was a damn maze, an entire underground labyrinth, and Annabelle hated to admit it but she would've been lost completely without instructions. That was not to say however that she wouldn't be able to find her way back buuuut since she didn't have any way to mark herself she jabbed her hand into the wall and carved arrows into the cavern. This would allow Annabelle to not only find her way back just in case the Kraut was trying to fuck her over but also give the prisoners a way back in the event that he was telling the truth. Either way, the biggest things he needed to worry about right now was the monsters. Regardless, she continued to follow the instructions blaring overhead as she traversed the tunnels and carved the arrows into the walls around her. Tunnel after tunnel after tunnel. It was a winding path but she continued running through them. The good news about taking her time like this was it gave her more than enough time to recover from the fight. Her wounds were healed and her stamina had returned to her so she was ready to fight. It gave her time to strategize. The monsters were strong, at the very least close to her levels of power, and that last one's weapons had somehow been sharp enough to wound her so she would need to watch out for those. After dealing with two of them, she'd come to realize that she would need to focus on her speed and agility against them, wear them down, break them down and take them out. Then there was The Puppets. Annabelle knew she could deal with them easily enough but she would have to be sure that they wouldn't slow her down when fighting The Monsters. Speaking of which, there was no real telling what else he would send out to fight her so she would have to be extra careful. The most immediate problem was that the dark feeling from before was coming back to her. That sensation, that presence, she felt before was back and it was stronger than before. Annabelle wasn't mistaken earlier. There was something evil in here with her. It wasn't fear or dread of a looming battle, no, this was something evil. There was some kind of evil spirit inside of the mountain. She wasn't sure if it was Silvio, or something inside of him, or something...wait. Wait! That was it! That gunk, or oil, or tar, or whatever the hell it was! That had to be it! That shit was not natural. It made her sick when it covered her. Just like the poison gas cloud from earlier but...worse. Like it didn't belong in the world with them. She had to find out what it was and dispose of it. Silvio would be the one working on it, right? So she would need to force him to tell him about what it was. A few broken bones would go a long way to getting her the information she needed. He also would have kept notes and files about it, whatever it was, so she would need to find and read and those to find out more information about it. One thing at a time though! She had some monsters to kill! Annabelle kept on running until she emerged into a larger wide open cavern with several entrances and staircases leading every which way. "...Oh what the fuck? How is this even in a...what the hell's...ugh! Fucking lunatic." She groaned. "Hey Asshole! Which way?!" She called out to Silvio. "You know we'd work much better together if you would refer to me as Professor. I'd like you to work on that while you're getting your head stomped into the ground." "I'd like you to remove your head from your ass but I don't see that happening anytime soon!" "Fraulein, I have never once said this about any of my test subjects, but I am going to enjoy watching you die screaming. Take the middle path and keep running through it until you find your way into The Arena." "You test your subjects in there often?" "Often, yes, but I specifically prepared it for you. For the day I test my wonderful creations against you in a fight to the death." "Then your wish is about to come true. Congratulations. Sit back and enjoy bitch. Because I'm going to absolutely dismantle all of them." "By all means, Fraulein, continue your blissful little dream. My wonderful creations will beat you back into reality." "Now who's dreaming?" Annabelle scoffed as she jumped down to the ground in front of the stairs and she hit the ground running, paused to carve more arrows into the cave wall, and then she kept running down the long lengthy path until she finally emerged out to behold a massive sprawling wide open stadium arena. It was a massive cavern that appeared to have somehow been hollowed out and a ceiling, lights, seats and multiple entrances. The seats were filled with an army of German Soldiers all of whom simultaneously stood up and applauded Annabelle as she entered! Lights flashed on and a whole army of The Monsters and Puppets emerged from the entrances on the other end. "Now this...this is more like it." Annabelle responded with a smile as she walked into the middle of the arena. She punched her hand into her fist as she beheld the small army of monsters he'd prepared for her. These Monsters...even just one-on-one had given her serious trouble and now she was staring down a whole entire group of them. This was going to be one hell of a fight. Annabelle rolled her shoulders and neck and pumped her fists to get ready and then she full on ran towards the enemies. The Monsters didn't hesitate to engage her in return and their clash began in the middle of the arena. She crashed into the Monster with enough force that their combined clash shook the air around them! The Puppets stumbled but got their footing right back, The Monsters didn't even budge from the force and the soldiers were knocked off their feet but they recovered. The lights flickered overhead as the dust flew into the air. Annabelle managed to push The Monster back a few feet but it recovered and attempted to slam its arms down on her but Annabelle jumped back to avoid it leaving the monsters large metal arms to smash into the floor. The ground trembled from the force of the impacts but Annabelle kept kept her footing upon landing and then she ran back over to it and leaped into the air and drove her right fist into the side of its head! The clanging of fist against steel echoed through the cave and the monster turned its head and thus its body from the force of the impact while Annabelle kept right on moving towards another one of them! This one immediately attacked her with a barrage of quick piston powered punches releasing sprays of steam from its arms as the punches fired into her like machine gun fire. The punches weren't quite as strong as the punches from the earlier cyborgs but they were coming at a much faster rate as the monster rapidly advanced on her to release an endless onslaught of relentless punches that continuously forced her backwards until Annabelle crossed her arms in front of her chest to block the constant hammering of punches but they just kept coming at her! Aimed at her face and stomach and chest while Annabelle did her best to block them until she switched tactics and threw herself backwards several feet until she bumped against the far wall and she took the chance to take a quick breather and rub her chest and stomach and shake out her arms. The Monsters weren't interested in letting up on her though and another one stepped up and sprayed her with a flamethrower! Despite the pain she was feeling after the piston punch barrage she still had to keep fighting so she quickly dodge out of the way! The flame kept right on going and lit up the wall where she'd just been standing and covered the wall with flames. The Monster slowly turned off its flamethrower and the others advanced on her while Annabelle got up to her feet and paused to catch her breath from the damage she took from that earlier attack. She knew that she'd heal soon but the assault she'd just endured still hurt like hell all the same. They weren't letting up though and they kept attacking! One of them shot out its claw on a chain to grab her while she was recovering and grabbed her arm and yanked her through the air towards it while another Monster revealed a fucking chainsaw blade and swiped at her head! Annabelle immediately fell back and ducked down and slid underneath it! With the others still closing in and that particular monster now pursuing her, Annabelle knew she had to act fast! She allowed The Monster to continue to drag her while she found her footing and then she lunged at him while cocking back her fist and delivering a brutal haymaker into its chest that forced it backwards across the floor and forced it release her. That was when another one of them came charging in from her left, barreled into her and sideswiped Annabelle and threw her through the air like a softball until she smashed into the far wall, crashed into it and made a hole into the cave wall and dropped to the ground. She coughed a few times causing the dust around her to spray away. Another painful hit like every strike these Monsters unleashed on her. But it wouldn't be enough to defeat Annabelle or put her down. She was made of stronger material than that. She grimaced and dragged herself up to her feet, throwing the bits of stone rubble off of her back and she stood tall once again and raised her fists. "Is that all you've got?" |

One of them shot out its claw on a chain to grab her while she was recovering and grabbed her arm and yanked her through the air towards it while another Monster revealed a fucking chainsaw blade and swiped at her head! Annabelle immediately fell back and ducked down and slid underneath it! With the others still closing in and that particular monster now pursuing her, Annabelle knew she had to act fast! She allowed The Monster to continue to drag her while she found her footing and then she lunged at him while cocking back her fist and delivering a brutal haymaker into its chest that forced it backwards across the floor and forced it release her. That was when another one of them came charging in from her left, barreled into her and sideswiped Annabelle and threw her through the air like a softball until she smashed into the far wall, crashed into it and made a hole into the cave wall and dropped to the ground. She coughed a few times causing the dust around her to spray away. Another painful hit like every strike these Monsters unleashed on her. But it wouldn't be enough to defeat Annabelle or put her down. She was made of stronger material than that. She grimaced and dragged herself up to her feet, throwing the bits of stone rubble off of her back and she stood tall once again and raised her fists. "Is that all you've got?" Obviously The Monsters didn't respond but they continued advancing towards her which said more than words ever could. Annabelle responded in turn and ran towards them and she drove her fist into the first one she ran into, knocked it back, kept running, struck another one, dodged a swipe from another one, dodged another one and then she kicked another one and pushed it back. Another one, a hulking armored beast with several drills and bladed weapons plugged into its large arm barreled towards her and began swiping and swinging at while Annabelle dodged around it and then she backflipped away from it to put some distance between them. She landed on her feet and then another one cam rushing towards her and Annabelle actually had to do a double-take at it to double-check what she was looking at: A giant mess of flesh and mechanical parts and a giant engine with a high speed propeller in place of its upper torso! (WHAT THE HELL?! WHY IS THAT A THING?!) She internally demanded. She didn't have time to finishing processing the appearance of the monster though because it was coming in fast! Annabelle super jumped clean over it and got a good look at the back of its legs which had smaller engines installed in its legs. That explained its speed at least but it didn't look like that particular Monster had much intelligence or it was able to stop and then it kept right on running until it hit the wall, tore up the chunks of the cave wall and then it slowly pulled itself back out and turned around while its blades continued to chew up the wall. Annabelle landed on her feet and then another one of The Monsters' tackled her to the ground hard enough to smash her into the floor! The Monster didn't give her a chance to breathe however and it began furiously swiping and clawing at her forcing Annabelle to quickly grab onto its wrists and they began struggling with each other until Annabelle was able to throw it off and spring back to her feet only for another one to strike her and send her flying into the wall. She slammed into it and then dropped down on one knee before she recovered and got ready for more fighting with The Monsters. The next one floated into the air and flew towards her with a jetpack like device and artificial wings that emerged from its back! The Monster attempted to stab into her head with a sword arm but she dodged the attack and kicked it backwards through the air and sent it flying backwards. She landed back on the ground and another Monster attacked her with a pair of giant scissors attached to each of its hands. Annabelle quickly backed off from the snipping and slashing Scissors Monster and dodged its attacks until another one attacked her from the side and she got out of the way. This dodge however put her right in the crosshairs of another Monster with a pair of giant maces for hands and another one close by with a giant hammer! The hammer Monster immediately reared back and swung down at her so Annabelle got out of the way leaving its massive hammer to hit the floor of the arena instead! The impact of the attack making a large hole in the floor that kicked up dust and bits of rocks everywhere as the chamber shook around them! Annabelle rolled to her feet and was immediately attacked by the other one with the spiked maces for hands so she went on the evasion, bobbing and weaving around The Monster's attacks, slipping and dodging its wild swings until she could take its side, grabs its arm, force it down and then she punched it in the side to knock it off of its feet and sent it flying towards the others. Hammer attacked her again however so Annabelle once again dodged out of the way to evade its hammer followed by leaping into the air to avoid being knocked off of her feet and turned that into a flying dropkick that launched it away! It crashed into some of the others and Annabelle landed back on her feet and she continued her strategy of dodging and evading around The Monsters while hitting them back and then moving on to attacking the others. There were certainly a LOT of them but she could manuever around them easily and wear them down this way. She just hoped she didn't drop first. While she was preoccupied however the Puppets all silently watched and observed the battle and how Annabelle was moving around the battlefield as they took their positions, took aim, charged up their guns and waited. Annabelle continued clashing with the forces of evil until she was able to knock a few of them away. She was about to move against the others when she heard the humming sounds behind her. (The Hell?) She turned around to face what she thought would be new enemies only to see lightning bolts striking through the air! Annabelle was struck in the chest by a couple of the bolts and found herself suddenly screaming in pain as the lightning bolts crackled and arced around her body! Her body was absorbing the energy but she still took the damage when it hit her all the same and now she was being blasted by multiple lightning bolts all at once! It was unlike anything she'd ever experienced before! Annabelle's body twitched and spasmed as the electricity was poured into her in a constant stream! The pain was excruciating but Annabelle would not let this stop her or take it lying down. She grimaced and raised her head back up and she began forcing her body to stand back up but then she was struck aside by another one of The Monsters and sent flying through the air and another one of them struck her while she was mid-flight and sent her flying upwards into the wall! Annabelle crashed into the wall, smashed into it, and then she dropped down to the floor of the cavern. After that The Flamethrower Monster immediately stepped up and sprayed her with flames! The Flamethrower Monster advanced on Annabelle while it continued to hose her with its weapon until Annabelle suddenly burst out of the flames, accelerated across the cavern, crashed into The Monster, tackled it across the arena and smashed into the far wall! Despite being covered head to toe in the flames that now surrounded her, Annabelle nevertheless began absolutely hammering it with a barrage of heavy punches before she ended her combination with a punch to its head that knocked it to the ground! Annabelle then stomped on its back and found the back of its flamethrower and grinned wickedly. "Heeee~ey! Do you wanna go boom-boom?!" She asked and smashed her burning fists into it, lifted it up and threw it across the arena towards the other Monsters where it exploded in a massive fireball that consumed a few of them, knocked over the others and blasted back the Puppets and the Soldiers! Annabelle laughed at the destruction and then she began walking towards the others while still covered in flames. " AHAHAHAHAHA!! AHAHAHAHA!! HOW'S THAT FEEL HUH? HOW'S THAT FUCKING FEEL? COME ON AND GET YOUR ASSES UP YOU PUPPETS! IT'S TIME TO DANCE WITH THE DEVIL!" |

Annabelle landed on her feet and then another one of The Monsters' tackled her to the ground hard enough to smash her into the floor! The Monster didn't give her a chance to breathe however and it began furiously swiping and clawing at her forcing Annabelle to quickly grab onto its wrists and they began struggling with each other until Annabelle was able to throw it off and spring back to her feet only for another one to strike her and send her flying into the wall. She slammed into it and then dropped down on one knee before she recovered and got ready for more fighting with The Monsters. The next one floated into the air and flew towards her with a jetpack like device and artificial wings that emerged from its back! The Monster attempted to stab into her head with a sword arm but she dodged the attack and kicked it backwards through the air and sent it flying backwards. She landed back on the ground and another Monster attacked her with a pair of giant scissors attached to each of its hands. Annabelle quickly backed off from the snipping and slashing Scissors Monster and dodged its attacks until another one attacked her from the side and she got out of the way. This dodge however put her right in the crosshairs of another Monster with a pair of giant maces for hands and another one close by with a giant hammer! The hammer Monster immediately reared back and swung down at her so Annabelle got out of the way leaving its massive hammer to hit the floor of the arena instead! The impact of the attack making a large hole in the floor that kicked up dust and bits of rocks everywhere as the chamber shook around them! Annabelle rolled to her feet and was immediately attacked by the other one with the spiked maces for hands so she went on the evasion, bobbing and weaving around The Monster's attacks, slipping and dodging its wild swings until she could take its side, grabs its arm, force it down and then she punched it in the side to knock it off of its feet and sent it flying towards the others. Hammer attacked her again however so Annabelle once again dodged out of the way to evade its hammer followed by leaping into the air to avoid being knocked off of her feet and turned that into a flying dropkick that launched it away! It crashed into some of the others and Annabelle landed back on her feet and she continued her strategy of dodging and evading around The Monsters while hitting them back and then moving on to attacking the others. There were certainly a LOT of them but she could manuever around them easily and wear them down this way. She just hoped she didn't drop first. While she was preoccupied however the Puppets all silently watched and observed the battle and how Annabelle was moving around the battlefield as they took their positions, took aim, charged up their guns and waited. Annabelle continued clashing with the forces of evil until she was able to knock a few of them away. She was about to move against the others when she heard the humming sounds behind her. (The Hell?) She turned around to face what she thought would be new enemies only to see lightning bolts striking through the air! Annabelle was struck in the chest by a couple of the bolts and found herself suddenly screaming in pain as the lightning bolts crackled and arced around her body! Her body was absorbing the energy but she still took the damage when it hit her all the same and now she was being blasted by multiple lightning bolts all at once! It was unlike anything she'd ever experienced before! Annabelle's body twitched and spasmed as the electricity was poured into her in a constant stream! The pain was excruciating but Annabelle would not let this stop her or take it lying down. She grimaced and raised her head back up and she began forcing her body to stand back up but then she was struck aside by another one of The Monsters and sent flying through the air and another one of them struck her while she was mid-flight and sent her flying upwards into the wall! Annabelle crashed into the wall, smashed into it, and then she dropped down to the floor of the cavern. After that The Flamethrower Monster immediately stepped up and sprayed her with flames! The Flamethrower Monster advanced on Annabelle while it continued to hose her with its weapon until Annabelle suddenly burst out of the flames, accelerated across the cavern, crashed into The Monster, tackled it across the arena and smashed into the far wall! Despite being covered head to toe in the flames that now surrounded her, Annabelle nevertheless began absolutely hammering it with a barrage of heavy punches before she ended her combination with a punch to its head that knocked it to the ground! Annabelle then stomped on its back and found the back of its flamethrower and grinned wickedly. "Heeee~ey! Do you wanna go boom-boom?!" She asked and smashed her burning fists into it, lifted it up and threw it across the arena towards the other Monsters where it exploded in a massive fireball that consumed a few of them, knocked over the others and blasted back the Puppets and the Soldiers! Annabelle laughed at the destruction and then she began walking towards the others while still covered in flames. " AHAHAHAHAHA!! AHAHAHAHA!! HOW'S THAT FEEL HUH? HOW'S THAT FUCKING FEEL? COME ON AND GET YOUR ASSES UP YOU PUPPETS! IT'S TIME TO DANCE WITH THE DEVIL!" The soldiers' ears were ringing loudly as they coughed and struggled to recover from the shock of the sudden explosion. The roar, echoing off the cave walls, had shaken them all. Their minds were reeling in shock and confusion from the unexpected blast. But there was more weighing on them—a sense of abject dread and horror. The American was not yet dead. The Monsters, possessing inhuman strength beyond mortal capabilities, were fighting her as a team, something the soldiers had never witnessed before. Yet, she was not dead. She continued to fight. Each time they struck her with a blow that would have been fatal for an ordinary human, she rose again. The advanced weaponry, crafted by the Professor, which they had seen scorching through the flesh of men, had been unleashed upon her. Still, she withstood it and fought on. Now, set ablaze, she battled like a demon from hell itself! They had all heard the tales of the American Girl, America's Super Soldier, The Devil Woman, The Walking Wasteland, The Guardian Angel—she had many names, spoken since the first World War and throughout the current conflict. They had usually scoffed at the stories, dismissing them as nonsense or gross exaggerations... until she appeared at the mountain's doorstep, having decimated the entire military base outside. Then, all the legends resurfaced, and they confronted the embodiment of terror. For one never truly comprehends the dread and fear of facing The Super Soldier until witnessing her in action. If there was a God looking down upon The Earth then he must be smiling upon them as his Avenging Angel took them apart. The Angel Of Wrath, in the form of an American Super Soldier, had arrived to dispense judgment upon them all. One of the soldiers gasped for breath as American Girl lifted him up into the air by his throat with her burning blazing hand, took his gun with the other one and snapped his neck before discarding him. It was time to start thinning the heard. First she'd eliminate the soldiers since they'd be the easiest to take out and she didn't want any of them getting out. Next, she'd use the high ground to gun down the scientist puppets, steal their lightning weapons and then use those to wipe out the rest of the monsters. It was the most efficient way to take them all out. The puppets and monsters wouldn't stop fighting until they were all dead but the soldiers could potentially escape and kill the prisoners so she had to eliminate them first. She immediately began opening fire on the scattered downed soldiers and started gunning them down on the spot. The soldiers screamed as the bullets drilled through their bodies. While she was occupied with this however one of the monsters righted itself and raised up a hose like device on its arm that was attached to a large tank on its back. The hose device was activated and it began spraying the black sludge from before towards the stands. Fortunately for Annabelle, she heard it coming and had enough time to turn around and see it coming! Her eyes widened in shock as she recognized it well from her fight with the first monster. She immediately dived out of the way and sailed across the stands. She reached out towards the wall, planted her hand against it and then she jumped down to the ground again. Annabelle landed on her feet and looked back up at the stands as the soldiers, all of them, either standing or not, were thoroughly hosed down with it. (What the hell? What's it doing to them?) She questioned. (When that shit got all over me it felt like I was sick and I was dying like I was going to puke but I'm a Superhuman. What kind of effect will it have on normal-SHIT!) She leaped up into the air to dodge out of the way of the lightning blast. She managed to evade it but then the others aimed up at her and fired at her with the other Lightning Guns. The lightning blasts streaked through the air but she managed to dodge it by kicking off of the wall and accelerating herself across the cave towards another wall. On the way though she saw the soldiers wriggling and writhing on the stands as they screamed their lungs out. Change of plans then. She had to bring it down hard right now. If that thing was hosing those guys down so thoroughly while she was still such a clear and present threat to them then it likely had a very good reason and she didn't want to find out what it was. She planted against the wall with her hands out stretched to stop herself and then she sprung off of it to kick The Sprayer in the back and send it flying into a wall. She landed on her feet as the soldiers began slowly standing up while still writhing and wriggling as they twitched and spasmed uncontrollably. They began gurgling and snarling and gnashing their teeth like animals! "What...the...hell?" Annabelle asked in shock as she watched this all happen in front of her. Then she heard the sounds of gears turning and chains being pulled as the gates were raised up. "Now what?" She asked as she raised her fists up ready for the next enemy. Her answer came in the form of a cacophony of snarling and roaring and screaming from an onrushing hoard reanimated corpses bursting out of the gates in an onrushing wave of bodies! "WHAT THE HELL ARE THOSE NOW?!" She demanded and leaped backwards to give herself some distance as she adjusted to the new threat. She looked at the creatures and then up at the sprayed soldiers who were now leaping down to the cave floor now completely out of their minds. She stared at the onrushing hoards got ready to fight the new threats. (It's that gunk! That sludge! That...whatever the hell it is! That stuff is used for the monsters and it must've also been used to create whatever these things are just like the soldiers it just hosed down. Which means...which means...every single one of these things....every single one...was one a human being. Just like the pawns. Just like the machines. Every single one of them was once a human being until Silvio ripped it away from them and turned them all into these abominations!) She gritted her teeth and tightly squeezed her hands into her fists. A red light began swirling around her fists as her anger this atrocity surged to the surface once again. She screamed and ran back into battle once more to strike them down and set them free. Silvio would pay. No matter what happened to her down here she would make absolutely certain to tear his goddamned heart out! But first...first she would set these people free and finally allow them to rest in the afterlife. |

Obviously The Monsters didn't respond but they continued advancing towards her which said more than words ever could. Annabelle responded in turn and ran towards them and she drove her fist into the first one she ran into, knocked it back, kept running, struck another one, dodged a swipe from another one, dodged another one and then she kicked another one and pushed it back. Another one, a hulking armored beast with several drills and bladed weapons plugged into its large arm barreled towards her and began swiping and swinging at while Annabelle dodged around it and then she backflipped away from it to put some distance between them. She landed on her feet and then another one cam rushing towards her and Annabelle actually had to do a double-take at it to double-check what she was looking at: A giant mess of flesh and mechanical parts and a giant engine with a high speed propeller in place of its upper torso! (WHAT THE HELL?! WHY IS THAT A THING?!) She internally demanded. She didn't have time to finishing processing the appearance of the monster though because it was coming in fast! Annabelle super jumped clean over it and got a good look at the back of its legs which had smaller engines installed in its legs. That explained its speed at least but it didn't look like that particular Monster had much intelligence or it was able to stop and then it kept right on running until it hit the wall, tore up the chunks of the cave wall and then it slowly pulled itself back out and turned around while its blades continued to chew up the wall.

No matter what happened to her down here she would make absolutely certain to tear his goddamned heart out! But first...first she would set these people free and finally allow them to rest in the afterlife. The Zombies rushed her head-on in an enraged blind fury. Their faces were contorted in rage. Their eyes glowing faintly. They charged her, far faster than a normal human, let alone one in their condition, should be able to move. These creatures, these beings that had once been human, had lost all semblance of rational thought and it was replaced by an uncontrollable and violent fury. Annabelle could feel it radiating off of them. The blind rage, the fury, the crazed blind bloodlust, like something inside of them was driving them into a state of absolute berserk violence. It wasn't just the new ones either. The ones who'd just been sprayed were feeling the exact same blind rage! So Annabelle now had to deal with dozens of raging maniacs, the machine monsters and the marionettes. If it wasn't for her own rage building and the awareness that this might very well be exactly how she looks when she's in her berserker mode she might've found some form of amusement in how utterly bizarre the situation really was. For now though she was focusing on the horror in front of her. The Presence was back. The same darkness she'd sensed the moment she stepped into this hell had returned stronger than before. It was everywhere now. It was pressing down on her. It felt like it was weighing down every inch of her body. She felt a sense of dread in her heart now as the sensation of fear built up within her mixing with the boiling rage and threatened to push her completely over the edge into her own ballistic rage but she pushed it down. Annabelle focused on the task at hand and braced herself for the attack. She met the oncoming horde of maniacs. She was still on fire, her hands were glowing with power and she was ready to end this battle. Annabelle struck first and cracked one of the corpses square in the face and sent it flying back into the horde behind it. A few of them were caught and knocked down but the others were completely unfazed and just kept charging her. She turned around and cracked one of them in the face while hoping to nail the one next to it only for the creature to inhumanly twist its torso to duck under her punch, its body snaking around her attack like a liquid! With a fluid roll the creature slipped around her and attacked her from behind only to be met with a brutal kick to its torso that sent it flying away. She put her foot down and immediately went back on the attack against the creatures swarming around her now charging over each other like a tidal wave of flesh all of them snarling and snapping their jaws madly while flailing with their arms and twisting their bodies with serpent-like grace slipping from each other and flowing over each other like a vision of hell closing in all around her. Annabelle quickly backflipped out of the closing horde, flipped herself back across the chamber, kicked off of the wall, landed on the floor and then she crouched down, held her fists out in front of her and then she rocketed herself towards the horde and smashed her burning body and energy fists into the horde. Several of them were blasted across the cavern as a result but the rest recovered and retaliated by surrounding Annabelle and closing in on her. |
