Reborn In DC

Chapter 19 - Scarlett (Part 4)

In a few hours, the fight expanded throughout the entire city, living the city with destroyed buildings and stuff burning everywhere. In that short expand of time, Lucy and Scarlett had exchanged a lot of blow with Lucy fighting while retreating not wanting to fight at close distance and Scarlett hunting her down in a frenzy.

As the fight continues Scarlett becomes better and better, getting injured less and less. while all of that was happening Marcus who was in the command room had stopped eating popcorn, now he had a serious look while looking at the fight. Since the fight started Scarlett had got mortally injured a few times which mean having her head or earth destroyed.

the thing is every time it happens when she awoke she would get stronger and stronger. Which means with every dead she grows stronger. Marcus new that the serum wasn't created to be like that, he even check the data about serum he injected Scarlett, he double check and triple check but nothing was wrong with it.

'what the heck is going on'

[Lucy, you are seeing this right.]

[That she is getting stronger with every death.]

[it looks like you are about to lose the fight.]

At this point in the fight, Lucy had to escape, hiding to refill her ammo since during the fight Scarlett did everything to stop her from ȧssessing the spatial dimension.

So after getting in a building, she would start taking stuff out of her spatial dimension, This wasn't the first time she did this. During those times, she would give herself a few upgrades which mean she was also growing stronger which helps her keep up with Scarlett and most importantly she was building a weapon to take down Scarlett.

In the last stop, she had finished building her weapon but she didn't complete the power source, right now she had just completed it and she was doing the final adjustment when suddenly the wall next to her explode and a hand can out of it and grab one of her, immediately melting it.

Lucy didn't sense pain, so having her hand melt away didn't hurt her but she felt annoyed since for her, losing her hand will drop her battle power. Lucy knew that in close combat with Scarlett she would be at a disadvantage. So she made a lightning-fast retreat drop smoke and flash pellets while exploding the wall behind her and jump out of the building.

after landing on the street she made a few boost jump back. At this moment, a female figure landed on the street looking at Lucy. Lucy and Scarlett were 100 meters away from each other.

"Look at what I got," Scarlett said to Lucy while holding Lucy half-melted left arm, that continues melting in her hand.

"It's just an arm," said with no expression and plunge her right hand in her spatial dimension and took out an arm replacing the one that Scarlett had destroyed. "I can replace on at any time" she responded with a smug smile on her face

haha, I am going to cut much more so prepare some replacement she then took a fighting position. Lucy knew that in term of speed she was weaker than Scarlett so decided to take action and she took out a giant futuristic canon from her space dimension and pointed it at Scarlett activating it causing it to gather energy

"if you are so strong why don't you take this attack of mine."

Scarlett was about to respond with a quick remark when she heard the voice of Marcus [Oh no, don't later her finish quickly stop her.]

[Why?]

[Don't why me! stop her]

Remembering what had happened when she did not license to Marcus's instruction, she took action running at full speed toward Lucy but sadly it was too late. Lucy's fire, a white ball of light can out of the gun immediately the temperature around the white ball drop. Seeing this Scarlett knew she was in great danger so she concentrated all the power she could into a flaming ball and threw it at the white ball.

...and she totally misses it. Previously she had no marksmanship practice causing her to mist. But today it seems like God was merciful toward her although the fireball misses it, it flew directly toward Lucy.

After firing there attack both of them couldn't and didn't have time to evade but had to take the attack head-on. So Scarlett formed a wall of fire in front of her, while Lucy formed a forcefield in front of her.

Then...

BOOOOMMMMM

A few seconds after the explosion sound, steam clouds flew up covering the entire city.

"Wow, amazing" Marcus said while standing on top of a skyscraper, looking down at the fight. A few moments ago he had got out of the danger room to watch the fight. Using his power Marcus gathers cloud and formed a strong wing, blowing the steam away letting him see the battlefield clearly. On his left side, there was a block of huge ice and inside it, you could a frozen Scarlett while on the right side he could see a crater with melting stone like lava and inside it, he could see a half-melted Lucy.

Jumping off the building he flies and landed in the crater next to Lucy's body. Squatting down Marcus flick Lucy's head "Are you still in there?" he asks.

Lucy's eyes light up and flicker a few times before stabilizing.

"I won"

"I don't think so. If she has the willpower she might break out of the ice, while you can do nothing but lay down slowly running out of energy."

"So it's a draw?"

"Yep"

"Sigh. so I am not going to be able to make it"

"Relax, I was happy with the fight so I am going to let you build it but"

"But what?"

"As I said before, you have to wear a maid outfit but you will wear it for an undefined amount of time. So do you accept?"

"...Ok"

"haha" creating a hologram Marcus places it in front of Lucy. In the hologram, you could see different types of maid outfit. "Which one do you want to wear?"

"..."

After talking to Lucy, he deploys a few robots to reconstruct Lucy's body. Marcus then walks to the ice and uses his powers to start melting the ice. Suddenly an alarm resounded throughout the room.

"Jarvis, what happens?"

"Sir a few moments ago I discover a change in the time chamber it's out of control"

"Damn it, Lucy let go, Jarvis takes care of Scarlett," Marcus said will pointing at Scarlett. Marcus immediately runs out of the room at full speed toward the time chamber "Jarvis prepare a suit for me."

"Yes, sir"

====

This body was Lucy's although it was incomplete it was the strongest one she had. Walking to the corner of the room a door slid open revealing an armory. immediately she stated equipping herself, finishing she teleports out of the room directly in the time chamber.

Looking next to her she saw Marcus in one of his armor. Marcus was wearing a completely black version of mark 39.

"Let go."

On his signal, they both fire their repulsors and flew toward the giant planet that was facing them.
