Hong Kong Crumble!

[Rift]

Hong Kong, 8:00 pm

The night sky was shaken by the sound of a powerful storm raging. Not a thunderstorm, but a storm of power. In Hong Kong citizens fled hoping to find escape from the destruction that nipped at their heels. Sirens blared as buildings crumbled. The draconic Alastor walked through the city as if it weren’t even there, obliterating structures. Though he walked with determination his trek was not without malice. Occasionally stopping, he turned the sky red as his dragon breath ignited everything in its path. Unlike London, he didn’t target anything specifically, didn’t seem intent on wreaking havoc, but rather as if he were heading to some unknown destination.

A roar filled the air, drowning out the sirens and screams as this Alastor took in this new land, a place very different from what he was used to. His tail drill whirled as he moved, ripping through a government building like a hot knife through butter. While he did not intend to destroy all in his path, he would not tolerate anything in his way, refusing to allow his progress to be halted by the ignorant human structures.

[aragu]

An answering cry sounded from the air as Aragu, screeching in reply to Alastor's challenge. His powerful wings propelled him towards the burning city, where all the destruction was taking place. The eagle-like kaiju landed on a building, his sharp talon digging into the concrete. Sharp eyes stared at the dragon creature. The recent attacks all over the world by kajiu had alerted him to the danger that humanity was in and so, he had been flying over parts of the world, doing his best to patrol and keep mankind safe.

Now, one creature threatened their safety once more. His blades slid out of their hiding places above his hands and, crouching, he launched himself at Alastor, a streaking brown missile across the city. Aragu had come.

[Rift]

Alastor roared at the bird-like creature that now challenged him. Following his interrupted slumber he had intended to seek out an ancient guardian of this land, one whose dormant power he could sense from far off. However rather then head for the guardian creature he would settle for this opponent.

As the creature neared he swept his tail in attempt to bat it from the sky.

[aragu]

Aragu rolled out of the way and spun with his blades extended, the cold steel eager to seek out the kaiju's flesh. AFter slashing at Alastor several times, he went up to him and let loose a powerful screech near his ears, stunning him. Aragus resumed the attack, trying to do as much damage as quickly as he could.

[Rift]

Alastor groaned for a moment, stunned by the screech and unable to do much besides flail his claws wildly at Aragu. Once the affects wore off a bit, he groggily lunged forward, snapping at the bird-like kaiju with his teeth.

[aragu]

The kaiju managed to avoid the teeth but the motion of the head caught him off-guard, a tumble of feathers sent spiraling away a good ways before regaining control. Aragu narrowed his eyes as he watched his enemy. He had a small timeframe to hit his enemy and now was the time to strike.

Launching himself back into the fray, he pushed his arms together over his head and began to spin more and more, until he was a blur, before rocketing towards the chest of Alastor. Hopefully, this would penetrate the natural armor the beast had.

[Rift]

Alastor released a blast of superheated flame at the same time the creature struck him. Whether or not his attack had hit its mark he didn’t know, as he fell to the ground, debris, scales, and minute traces of blood flying as he did.

[aragu]

The fire hit Aragu in the side and he roared in pain as it cooked his armor up to unbearable temperatures and began to scald his skin. Whirling away, he waited for it to cool down, as he leaned against a building. His eyes gazed at Alastor, noting the blood and scales that rained from it.

Standing up, it growled in annoyance as a dull pain throbbed from its side. Glancing down, he saw the armor was still a dull red. Well, he would have to be careful of that blast. Leaping up into the air, he began to circle around, waiting for the beast to rise.

[Rift]

Standing once more Alastor grunted in both pain and anger. Looking to the sky he turned his head, following his airborne opponent, but not moving to attack just yet. Roaring another challenge, Alastor stepped backwards, thinking of how to ground his opponent.

[aragu]

Aragu glanced at his opponent once before resuming the attack. Flying at incredible speeds toward the bigger, slower kaiju, he slashed at the beasts shoulder before flying upwards to stab at its head. Using the fact he could fly to his advantage, he decided that he would weaken Alastor a bit first before inflincting greater amounts of damage.

[Rift]

Alastor roared as scales and blood flew, the talons of the bird like Aragu causing minute amounts of pain, but pain nonetheless. Stepping backwards for a moment and craning his head to view his flying foe, Alastor released a volley of projectile weapons, his Scale shards attack firing from his back intended to slice into his opponent to ribbons.

[aragu]

Aragu swerved out of the way of the shards, but some still slashed into his wings, injuring him badly. Crying out in pain, the angered kaiju instinctively charged at Alastor's face, clawing and stabbing at his eyes, nose, anything vulnerable there.

[Rift]

Alastor roared, a mixture of anger and pain as a stream of blood began to flow from an eye. His tail raised and swept towards his foe, the bladed edge aiming for Aragu in an attempt to merely get him away from the face.

[aragu]

The bladed edge caught the kaiju in the side and sent him flying into a building. Screeching in pain, Aragu stood back up, blood streaming from cuts on his face and right arm. This time, he would let Alastor make the move.

[Rift]

Alastor reared back and roared in anger before marching forward, his tail seemingly poised to strike at Aragu once again. This time though Alastor stopped, using his telekinesis to drag rubble from the building his opponent had just struck to him. Flinging the rocky debris at Aragu in attempt to knock him down once again, Alastor prepared to keep him grounded should the projectile hit its mark.
