| BLAZE OF BATTLE
VOL 1 EPISODE 5
Vanguard relaxed his body as he slammed into the brick wall, ensuring minimal injury to himself. Corona stands back up after blasting him back.
"Your just making this HARDER for yourself, Corona. Why don't you stand still, so I can pound you into the pavement?!” Anger rising in Vangaurd's tone of voice. He springs back to a standing position.
"Ask yourself Vangaurd where were you when the fires started?” Corona asks.
" And what the hell is THAT supposed to mean? When we first met, I knew you were a little off, but I had no idea that you were THIS out of touch with REALITY. YOU were the one photographed in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina!” Vangaurd states.
"Photographed doing what?!?!?”Corona asks.
"At the same time as all those suspicious fires were going on!”Vangaurd says calming a little.
"I was there trying to help with the Katrina victims and it haunts me every day what happened there.” Sadness creeps into Coronas voice.
"Flying around the city... during a HURRICANE... What did some rich guy pay you off to make sure that those properties were LEVELED? HAUNTS you? Oh you mean like when you tried to KILL those cops? Oh yea, Corona, you're a BIG hero.”
Vangaurd suddenly lunges at Corona but dodges his attack. Corona shoots a jet of flame at Vangaurd and expecting the attack this time twists out of the line of fire scorching the wall behind him black.
"SOO predictable!” Vangaurd begins to speak confidence in his voice "You know what your PROBLEM is?”
"Whats my problem?!?!” Corona replies.
Vanguard grabs at his belt with lightning reflexes, hurls mini blades at Corona giving him barely any time to think.... "You're too SLOW!” The blades just barely miss Corona, as he somehow manages to duck out of the way. The small gleaming blades impale the asphalt rooftop instead amidst broken glass fragments.
"How's THAT to chew on for starters, and now I... HUH?” Vanguard pauses in mid-speech as soon as he sees what is happening...Flames shooting out of Corona's arms, like a living flame thrower.... Before Vanguard can react, Corona shapes the flames, masterfully into a huge fiery cage, effectively trapping the over-eager vigilante. He's stunned and doesn't know what to say next...
"Now, are you ready to listen to me. Do u really think if I was starting these fires I would have been trying to take u out instead of subduing you ?” Corona asks angrily.
Suddenly a flurry of movement catches Corona's attention coming from the building where you started out on! "CORONA, GET YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK AND GET DOWN ON THE GROUND NOW!" 2 police officers, both of their weapons are aimed at you, order.
Corona thinking to himself "Cops why always cops.?!?”
"Vanguard! GET DOWN. You're both under ARREST!"the officers order again.
"Vangaurd we need to work together to get out of this.” Corona says frantically.
"Oh, and how do you propose we do THAT, genius?” Sarcasm in Vangaurd's voice.
"I cant fly for the next 45 min or so I can give us some cover without hurting the cops.” Corona states.
"And what do you want ME to do?” Vangaurd asks.
"Do u want to stay here and get arrested???” Corona states back with sarcasm in his voice.
The police scream at them again. "THIS IS YOUR LAST WARNING BEFORE WE OPEN FIRE! GET DOWN! HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK! NOW!"
With a dramatic gesture, Corona extinguishes the flaming cage around Vangaurd, and create a huge wall of flame in front of the cops.
Meanwhile Vanguard takes something out of his belt...
"OK, I owe you one, so consider the favor REPAID IN FULL.” Vangaurd states.
" Vangaurd we need to get out of here, and fast!!!” panic sounding in Coronas voice.
"WE? You're on your own, mutant!” With that he flings a couple of smoke grenades onto the ground... The area fills up fast with smoke, obscuring his presence, at least from human sight... he leaps into the open glass window after picking up his staff, using the concealment of the smoke grenades to cover his escape.
Corona moves to the shattered window and braces himself to jump down the same way Vangaurd escaped. Then has second thoughts about it as he sees the distance to the floor and remembers the injury he sustained from jumping from the building a short time ago. Corona then has an idea how to get out of the situation he is in...
Corona backs up and plants a fireball right under himself, using the blast to rocket himself into the air and then using the blast from his hands to steer he rockets himself off the building. The sheer exhilaration that Corona feels upon rocketing into the air is freeing.
But the feeling is short lived as the cops on the rooftop open fire on Corona. Corona evades their shots and heads towards a parking structure. As Corona is racing toward the garage, he notices a flurry of activity coming from the Harrison police station... And oddly enough attention doesn't seem to be focused on him. Corona turn toward the commotion the cops are running towards. Corona lands on the highest building across from the police station and sees the JADE PEACOCK Restaurant is on fire, black smoke billows from all the first floor windows. People rushing out of the building frantically, the cops trying to organize the chaos.
