2 hours earlier…
"Who the fuck was that?" A man asked as soon after the large man had left. Everyone around shook their heads like they didn't know either. Jogging out of the gas station a man started yelling out commands.
"Fill the gas tanks! We're heading to the crater asap! This is our only chance at killing the fucker that did this!"
Rushing to get the cars full, the men moved in a blur showing their superhuman speed and strength. A few moments later they were weaving between cars on the highway. At first they had almost caught up to Cameron, but once he figured to use his aura to jump they lost him. Having to find pathways through rubble and abandoned cars it took them quite a bit longer to reach the crater.
Hours later they reached the crater just in time to see the man they'd saw earlier launch like a meteor into the crater. In the backseat of the cop car, a man was watching. A face of recognition hit him before cam had launched into the fight. "Was that Kai's boy?" The mans black eyebrows furrowed. Tapping his daughter next to him he asked her again. "Did you see him? I think that was Kai's boy."
Nodding, she said "That looked like cam. Though he looks like he's gained some muscle." Gettin out of the car the walked to the craters second edge to see how far the son of the worlds strongest man had come.
Present…
Colliding with the hardened earth next to the man named Cade. His face smiling and the knifes in his waist shook. His back trembled as he laughed.
A shockwave spread out, shaking the earth underneath them both. Still smiling Cade went in for a strike with his fists. His image blurred as he struck Cameron 8 times in one second each strike landing at different points on Cameron's torso. Taking the hits to the liver and stomach Cam barley looked harmed the only damage was to his shirt not having to use his innate talent to tank such weak hits. Looking at his fists as he backed away Cade whistled. "That's some serious defense there. Why don't you join.. whoops."
Cut off by an oversized roundhouse the man dodged backwards and repositioned himself. " Eh, I can see it in your eyes I can't convince you. So be it." Thundering forward like lightning Cade went for as many hits he could manage before Cam could react; activating his talent on his entire body cam endured as soon as the man had vanished from his eyes. Striking fast and hard Cades fist blurred. Striking the same spot above Cam's heart nearly 100 times in the span of 2 seconds.
Jumping back in surprise Cade having noticed his attacks did nothing to the rock in human form "Ah fuck." Sweat poured from his body in droves, steam coming off his body. Looking at his numb hands. His left hand looked the worst with fingers splayed in different directions. Without skipping a heartbeat Cam released his talent and struck. Dashing quickly to the agile man, his aura roaring through his legs, he was soon inches from grabbing Cade. Going for the grapple Cade slipped through, using his quickness to dart away from Cam's hands. However, before Cade could get even a yard away Cameron changed his tactics. Lifting his right leg that pulsed with dark red aura and freezing his left to hold his balance. Cam stomped causing the floor to quake and crack. Stumbling from the broken ground Cade's movement was stopped. Struggling for balance he noticed too late that Cam's fist was soaring straight for his head.
Following through with the massive hit Cades body rag dolled but before his body could fly away, a massive hand grabbed his calf. Shoving his aura into his back and arm muslces Cam slammed the dazed Cade into the earth three times before throwing him outside the crater toward some still standing but incredibly ruined skyscrapers. Flying through the air Cade's unconscious state ended and soon started panicking.
Using his aura Cam leapt after Cade, his body's insane strength treating gravity as a suggestion and aerodynamics as a question. Soon Cade impacted a steel beam bent breaking his left knife and sliding him deeper into the closest skyscraper as he scrambled for a hold so as not to fall down the holes which littered the skyscrapers 26th floor.
Struggling to remember Cade asked himself 'Did he just throw me that far? Looking out the window he stepped back quickly. A dark red meteor crashed into the steel beam next to him, nearly smashing into him. Having used his innate talent the young man unfroze and continued forward towards the man who had taken everything from him.
Taking stock of his injuries Cade was dissatisfied. 'This is what max stats gives me?' He thought. 'There is no way this runt has killed enough people to have these stats.' Pulling out one knife from his belt with his right hand, the other knife had been bent from his non consensual flight into a steel beam. Taking stance Cade readied himself for what came next.Taking a deep breath he used his legendary technique and his innate technique in tandem.
Innate talent : speed- double agility for 1 second
Cameron blinked, and the man was gone. Although Cades left arm had broken and his entire body was severely bruised, his regeneration kept his body in condition to fight.
Watching for the brute to blink his face a stoic mask no longer the same confident smile as before. Watching as the eyelids slowly fell he moved to strike. The first cut was to the hand that had so rudely threw him. Lightning infused technique sped him beyond what Cameron could see. Slicing through skin, flesh, and tendons. Sliding right between the bones of the wrist completely severing Cameron's left hand. The next strike went for Cameron's left thigh in one smooth motion. Slicing through skin and flesh it caught the bone with a sickening thud. In the half of a second it took for him to do this Cameron wasn't inactive. As soon as his hand got cut his adrenaline spiked and he clinched right as the blade struck bone inside his thigh.
Wasting precious time Cade attempted to pull the blade out. This was the wrong choice because as soon as he tugged for the blade a hand closed around his shoulder. Being unceremoniously pulled off his feet for the second time this fight his instinctively kicked the stuck knife, however the hand on his shoulder did not budge an inch. Looking into the angry eyes that held him he silently wished that the floor would be soft.
It wasn't .
Slamming into the concrete floor cracks spreading and the slams shaking the entire building which threatened to take them both down. Getting a bright idea Cameron switched his grab for a hug, using his stump as well to anchor onto him. He walked to the window he came in through with a mostly conscious Cade and dived out of the building.
Cade screamed as they fell.
Locking his entire body Cameron plunged ready to let gravity do his work for him. A wet slap sounded out as they slammed into the burnt and cracked concrete street that was slightly covered in new life and plants. They were buried deep into it. Pulling himself out of the rubble Cameron stood tall and mostly unharmed. Staring at the pile of debris that halfway covered his family's killer. He raged.
Cam stomped the rubble resting on the man with his aura infused leg over and over. Tearing the earth up and along with it Cades broken body laid there. Sucking in agonizing air. His body and hips faced the opposite way, turned like a wrung out towl. Jagged bones once protected by skin and flesh now exposed to the air. Each limb broken in multiple locations. Kneeling to the broken body he grabbed the cracked skull and broken jaw and slammed it into the ground repeating until the hard skull gave way to soft brain matter. Then a memory called out to him. "Cam!"
"Cameron!"
2 minutes earlier…
"Holy shit!" A man said
"Did he just throw him into the fucking skyscraper?" Another asked as if he hadn't just seen a man sized object speed over their heads toward the closest surviving tower.
"I think he.." the earth rumbled as a dark red glow flew after the flying man.
"I think we're out of our league here." Everyone stared wide eyed as the sounds from the tower, which stood directly to their left, reverberated through the silent street. Until a couple moments later two bloody forms appeared at the window.
"5 bucks says he throws him again, you in?"
"Uh.. your on!" another man said.
Standing at the edge of the window, one clutched in the others arms. Seconds later they plunged out of the window. One latched to the other, power driving toward the scorched and broken road.
Slam!
Everyone held their breath. That fall should have killed anyone who made that fall. However seconds later.
Thwack*
Thwack*
Thwack*
Walking closer to the crash sight each person stared at the brutality. Covered head to toe in blood, the one armed man kept slamming the floor with what was left of the man named Cade.
"Cam?" A blond haired young woman asked. Standing next to her was her father. A burly long black haired man.
"Cameron!" Finally hearing the voice Cameron stood. His breathing heavy and labored. His stump bloodie and dirty with concrete flakes. Looking up at the people who he hadn't seen in years his face contorted. The angry hatred filled eyes turned slowly into sadness. Tears leaked from his face and he fell straight backward. Raising his stump in the air he yelled. "I've avenged you!"
Then he promptly started snoring dreaming of his family sparing together with smiles on their face.
