Back to Basics

This is a drastic change... The Kale I knew before was cold, merciless, and killed for the fun of it. "Wait. You deserve a shot at survival." I toss him an arm band. "Put that on. It projects an EM field. It'll keep your shield down. I won't use my weapons, you don't use your powers. Hand to hand only."

I look at the band and then at the Punisher. "All right...but why are we fighting? Is this like a test?"

"More an opportunity. You've convinced me, through caring so much about this girl, that you deserve a shot at living. I'm going to give it to you."

"Who died and made you God?" I mumbled. "So what, we fight and if I win I get to live and if you win you kill me?"

"That's the general idea. What do you have to lose? I'm going to kill you eventually anyway, if you don't."

"Kale, this is the only way to leave all this behind. To be able to live freely," she said slowly.

I sighed. Yup, this guy has made himself God. "Fine, I suppose if it's the only way." I'll only do this to get this guy off my back. Later on in life when I die I'll still be going to hell anyway.

"Good." I remove my armor, and toss all my weapons aside. I get into a fighting stance.

I put the arm band on of his as I stand up. "Fine, let's get this over with."

Camille watched as they both got into position. "Kale, be careful," she said worriedly.

I smirk. "I will be, don't worry."

Camille took a step back and watched them intently.
