Prove Your Worth (Facilier's Army)

[Scroop]

(ooc: March 21st. Afternoon. Training thread for Facilier's Army.)

Scroop grinned as he walked out to the training area. After a week of training by himself now they were having a group training thread. He couldn't blame them wanting to find a cure for what had happened to many members of the army. But he was eager to train with someone else. For the moment he just swung his sword around looking for an opponent to train with.

XXXX

Siri yawned as she walked out. The only other cat she's seen here was Fat Cat but he'd been turned into a human shortly afterwards in a battle. She'd heard of a tiger who'd also joined but she hadn't seen him yet. A tiger might be an interesting and fun challenge here. But she'd settle for anyone really. Well except children. She had her own experiences with annoying children and babies from her world and she preferred to not bother with them. At least the ones here. She wouldn't mind harming any from the other armies. She just wasn't the type to hold back in fighting. It wasn't her style. So she would fight opponents who could recover easily. Or at least heal if she hurt them too badly.

XXX

Pete flew in still trying to get the hang of flying and breathing fire. Elliot had given him some lessons. But now he wanted to train some. He wasn't sure if anyone here would train with him. He couldn't really be a medic stuck as a dragon so he had to learn how to fight in this body. He didn't see his brother or Elliot here. He glanced at Siri and Scroop and decided to not fight either of them.

XXXX

Shaggy walked out next in his werewolf form. Being a werewolf just gave him courage he wouldn't have in his human form. Sure he was still scared to be an army of monsters, wild animals, and everything else. But he was Facilier's familiar and he knew he couldn't appear weak. He had to keep getting stronger and get used to his werewolf body. He thought of talking to Moriarty or Myotismon as they were both a vampire or zombie. Similar monsters to him. Perhaps one of them could help train him. Well if either showed up today.

XXXX

Kal walked out next. He was dressed in a black T-shirt, blue jeans, and white tennis shoes. He had trained mostly the past week staying out of everyone's way. He'd been amused at first by the spell backfiring but quickly realized it wasn't good for them. Critic's army still outnumbered them and if Critic or Ask That Guy tried to retaliate here they could have trouble. He looked around for an opponent not sure if he'd find a challenge to his powers. He might just attack some training dummies instead.

XXXX

DH walked out next. He was dressed in his usual red shirt, red pants, and white shoes. He was eager to test out his powers. He had lived for centuries searching for the Care Bears. He'd nearly succeeded and fallen in love with some girl. But Christy had fallen in love with some other boy leaving him heartbroken. He imagined targets were her as he fired at couple of them. He could find a partner later right now he was eager to get in some target practice.

[Alucard]

(OCC: Alucard's first appearance was in "Round and Round we go" so he should be somewhat acquainted with everyone and his sparring partner)

By Facilier's orders Moarte was told to train. Although he was submitted most of the time to guarding the house, Facilier told him they needed all the help they could get. Moarte didn't mind though, he enjoyed the carnage of war and training was close to it. The ghoul quickly noticed Shaggy by himself. Seeing the chance, he quickly went over to the werewolf. He felt the need to train this newly made monster. He bowed and responded "Well now Shaggy. Care to join me on some interesting combat, hmm?"
XXXX

Like siri, Shere-khan had no interest in the children or in anyone else above him. He felt the need to train away from the humans. He was glad to have Elliot and few animals but most of them talked and interacted with humans or were too busy. He sniffed a bit, sensing another actual animal and turned. He then saw Siri who was minding her own business, away from the humans. Automatically he knew this was the type of animal he gotten used to. He liked that. The tiger slowly but surely made his presence known. He smiled to her and responded "Greetings. I apologize for not introducing myself earlier but I am shere-khan"
XXXXX

Dr. Facilier saw Pete and since malachite and olive were handling their own issues, Facilier felt the need to help the turned dragon out. After all it was his fault his partner's adopted son was in this mess. In a way pete was his kid now too and Facilier felt pretty bad overall for the kid. Facilier quickly went over and replied with some cheer "Heya son. How about you and me have a training time together? Come on, let's see what you do against this old man right here" He chuckled. He whistled in impressed behavior "Doing pretty well, elliot's teaching you good I see"
XXXXX

Elsewhere Lame R. Prick was curious about scroop. Lame never really gotten around these days and felt the need to. He turned to scroop and responded "Well there. Sorry for not being around but I guess we can train together? Seems right don't you think" He thankfully had his gun which should be easier than some stupid sword. But the creature before him didn't need to hear that. Lame needed to make friends not enemies. Especially in a war.
XXXX

The vampire however wasn't concerned about friends or enemies as a means to survive. He had friends back in his own world, he didn't need any of these people. That said, he wouldn't object to making a few at all. In fact making friends would get him closer to his own personal mission. He looked around, eyes blazing with curiosity with each and every individual. He was fortunate to not have been there during the transformation stunt Facilier pulled. Although he would never say it aloud, he personally thought of the magician, although a good leader and a very great war-maker, he was foolish when it came to magic. Arrogant with it even. He had so far not been impressed by the human but Alucard was patient and was more than happy to give him a few more chances. He then turned to see a young man, Kal, looking about. Something about the human screamed demanding a challenge. Alucard chuckled darkly at that. If the human wanted a challenge, Alucard would be that.

The vampire quickly went over and grinned, all of his fangs baring out like daggers. His eyes excited and interested. His red coat and black hair blazing softly in the wind. His voice dark and smooth, he responded "Well now. You seem to have no-one fighting you. Care to have me show you a thing or two?"
XXXXX

The Trickster, meanwhile, was not looking for challenges. He was just bored to be honest. He wanted to get to know the world around him and thankfully because of his body not being transformed, he'd get that chance through time. He looked to see DH, angrily blowing away targets. The much older magician was curious. DH was someone he didn't get to know well but through a quick assumption, he found the boy to be normally collected. What got him so angry today? Maybe the situation but it looked more personal. He went over and responded with delight, clapping his hands "Impressive shooting, young one. Excellient work. You'll destroy the enemy in no time"

[Bizarro/Kal Lichon]

(ooc: You said moarte approached shaggy but then called him scroop. might want to fix that. confused me for a second.)

Shaggy looked up seeing Moarte and smiled at the zombie. He respected his fellow monster. Perhaps he could talk to him later to get help to adjust to being a werewolf. He might know some other werewolves or at least be able to help him adjust.

"Sure. Thanks. I'm still adjusting to this werewolf thing. At least being a familiar I can be human some of the time. It's better than the offer Dracula gave me. So what should we use? Swords? Hand to hand?" said Shaggy

XXXX

Siri paused looking up seeing Shere Khan and grinned.

"Well hello. It's a pleasure to see another jungle cat. I was feeling rather lonely before. Want to be my training partner?" said Siri.

XXXX

Pete paused looking up at Facilier who joined him.

"Hey papa." said Pete.

He flinched realizing he said that out loud. He'd started viewing Facilier as another father in his life but he was just dating Malachite. What if he didn't want kids? What if he just thought he was annoying?

"I'm sorry. Please don't be angry." whimpered Pete.

He paused realiznig Facilier asking him to train with him and Pete nodded.

"Alright. I don't really like being a dragon. I hope we reverse this soon." said Pete.

XXXX

Scroop paused looking at Prick as he grinned.

"Sure. I might be a bit rusty though. I haven't exactly fought in awhile so this will be good practice." said Scroop.

He'd tried fighting Jim on the ship but got shoved off the ship to his death only to get revived and brought here. They'd been too confident in their weapons and underestimated Jim. If he ran into that boy again he'd take care of him. He held his sword ready to face the man.

"You can make the first move." said Scroop.

XXXX

Kal paused looking up to see Alucard baring his fangs and he grinned.

"A vampire. You definitely seem like a challenge. Two vampires, a zombie, and a werewolf. Who knew there'd be so many monsters in this army? It's kind of refreshing. I may look human but I'm an alien from the planet Krypton in my universe. Not sure if you've heard of Superman but I lost my original body and was trapped in the Phantom Zone. Then I escaped and cloned Clark Kent's body as my own with none of his weaknesses." said Kal.

Sure he had his own weaknesses but he wasn't going to advertise that. He grinned at the vampire.

"I am glad to face you though. I don't have to hold back when facing you and you don't either. If I didn't hold back and fought most of the army I'd end up hurting them really badly. So I have to pick my battles. At least while training. I'm sure no one will care if a few members of Critic's and Ask That guy's army end up hurt or worse." said Kal.

He chuckled at that getting into a fighting stance.

"Why don't you show me what you can do?" asked Kal.

XXXX

DH paused looking up seeing the Trickster and smiled at the applause and praise.

"Thanks. I've seen you around but I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm Dark Heart or DH for short. Would you lke to train together?" said DH.

[Dr. Facilier]

(OCC: Yep. My bad. Fixed it)

"Hand to hand is my preferred choice of combat" Moarte quickly answered. He then looked shaggy up and down and replied "I don't know. You seem to be handling it quite well. If you don't mind me saying so. If you have impulses related to your wolf nature, I can give you advice on that. I've known many a werewolf for a long time" He chuckled amusedly. He then widened his eyes "The Count himself? Tell me, was he as obnoxious as I thought he was?"
XXXXX

"Oh it would be my pleasure, madame. It is wonderful to see more jungle life here. Rather lonely myself" Shere-khan replied. He looked at her and was admittedly interested with her. More than just the fact she was a jungle animal like himself.
XXXXXX

Facilier was shocked to be called "papa" but was also incredibly touched. He smiled until Pete began to panic and respond to not be angry. Facilier began feeling really sorry for him and looked up kindly at the dragon "Mad? Over what? Callin' me something? Pete, you can call me whatever you want" He then hummed "I may look unapproachable 'cause of my status but you're a good kid and I care about you" He then nodded about Pete's doubt over being a dragon "No worries, son. Keep it easy and don't worry about me. I can take it"
XXXXX

"No worries. I'm not much a fighter myself so you will be better than me" Prick admitted. He wasn't specifically trained back in the day to be a major fighter. He mostly arrested people. He then nodded and immediately charged, getting ready in case scroop had any idea to dodge.
XXXXX

"Well, monsters are easy to attract when it comes to power" Alucard pointed out. He wasn't wrong. Men or women could become incredibly evil or monstrous when it came to all the power in the world. He listened as Kal explained his origin which made Alucard incredibly interested and glad to have found a partner who was strong. His claim of being so powerful as to have no weaknesses made Alucard's doubt seep in slightly. Everyone, even the most powerful, had weaknesses. The vampire just had to wait and see. "Very impressive. You definitely have a story to tell"

"I'm glad also. It's good to see you can handle a lot of power. A majority of these people are rather feeble. My prowess is unlike most. It is good we can show each other what we have without killing them" He chuckled at that. Amused with the fact some of these people just didn't show up to snuff when it came to fights. But he was immediately liking and was impressed by Kal. He then grinned, teeth bared dangerously when challenged. "My pleasure. Let me start off with something simple" He immediately drew out his Casull and began firing at Kal, expecting him to immediately dodge.
XXXXXX

"You may call me Trickster. And it is a pleasure to meet you officially, DH" Trickster said politely. He even bowed respectfully. Trickster immediately nodded at the boy when asked to train with him "Certainly. It would definitely be a pleasure" He looked the boy up and down before making a stance and grabbing a wand out of his hand "Do not hesitate with me. Feel free to give me a challenge"

[Bizarro/Kal Lichon]

Shaggy Vs. Morate:

"Hand to hand it is then." said Shaggy.

Shaggy smiled at him.

"Thank you. Well this isn't my first time as a werewolf. Last time it was only one night though. I've had to be a werewolf longer this time. I do miss my old family and friends but at least I'm safe. I mean becoming Facilier's familiar has allowed me to switch back between human and werewolf at will. And keeps me safe as well. I never thought I'd end up in a villain army but not many people are going to befriend a werewolf anyway. So I guess I'm making the best of out this." said Shaggy.

Shaggy chuckled.

"He certainly was. I've been told my adventure's even a movie here. Scooby Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf. I've been told there's a lot of tv series and movies based on the lives my friends, and myself. Maybe I can ask Facilier and the others if we can find that movie. Then you could see for yourself." said Shaggy.

XXXX

Siri Vs. Shere Khan:

Siri smiled at him.

"I guess we were lucky to find each other then. So there isn't a Mrs. Shere Khan?" said Siri.

She grinned at him wondering if he was single or interested. The only other cat here was a house pet and definitely not her type. She had always wanted a mate and Shere Khan definitely was strong and handsome enough. But she didn't want to push either.

XXXX

Pete Vs. Facilier:

Pete grinned as Facilier said he could call him whatever he wanted.

"I'm sorry. I'm just used to people being mad at me. The Gulgans forced me to do all their chores and then hurt me when I didn't do them. Or didn't do them fast enough. I tried escaping a few times and I finally succeeded. When I was first brought here I thought that would happen all over again. But Malachite and Olive took me into their family. I have a brother and two fathers. Malachite's my dad and you're my papa. If that's ok." said Pete.

Pete's grin grew as Facilier said he cared about him.

"You mean it? It's not just cause I'm Malachite's son right? Because as long as you make my dad happy you'll get no problems from me." said Pete.

Pete nodded.

"Alright. You can do magic so I hope you can protect yourself." said Pete.

He charged at him breathing flames at him.

XXXX

Scroop Vs. Prick:

Scroop nodded.

"Then we'll learn together. I'm a bit rusty and you're still fairly new to fighting. So we're about on an even playing field wouldn't you say?" said Scroop.

He paused looking at him curiously.

"How about you go first? Give me your best shot." said Scroop.

XXXX

Kal Vs. Alucard

Kal nodded.

"So are a few humans. The greedy ones anyway." said Kal.

He smiled as Alucard seemed impressed with him but he had a feeling Alucard wasn't completely convinced.

"Alright. I'm not completely invincible. It is true that I have none of Clark's weaknesses. But I have some of my own. A lot of things that make him strong weaken me. And vice versa. Like kryptonite strengthens me when it makes him sick. Pure sunlight weakens me while it heals Clark. Those are just some examples. I normally like to keep my weaknesses to myself but since my world is a tv show in this world. Some of them probably already know my weaknesses. So keeping them silent doesn't help much." said Kal.

Kal nodded.

"I definitely can. It's an honor to fight you. I've never fought a vampire before. They're just stories in the world I came from." said Kal.

Kal was surprised as Alucard fired at him. Kal smirked speeding forward and catching the bullets in his hands. He then walked over and handed them back to Alucard.

"I normally crush bullets aimed at me but I don't know how much ammo you have. So I'll return them to you." said Kal.

XXXX

DH Vs. Trickster

DH nodded.

"It's an honor to meet you Trickster." said DH

DH grinned as Trickster agreed to train with him.

"Well I have magic but I can also turn into animals. I haven't used my magic in awhile so I think I'll start with that." said DH.

He grinned throwing a fireball at Trickster.

[Dr. Facilier]

Shaggy Vs. Moarte

"That is all you can do, my friend. And you are taking advantage of every opportunity you're given, which is a good trait. I too have a rough time getting to socialize. Being not alive yet not dead tends to naturally disturb the living. It is a shame really. I can be a nice friend" Moarte shrugged.

As the two trained, shaggy told him the story and he chuckled "Vampires are so typical. They think they're so great just because the media likes to make constant movies about them. Well I got news for them! They can kiss my ghoul ass and let the mummies have the spotlight for once!"
XXXX

Siri Vs Shere-Khan:

"Oh no. Unfortunately in my jungle not a lot of tigers are around. Besides, no one has offered that option to me...yet" Shere-Khan raised a eyebrow. This cat was clearly offering something but he was respectful enough not to say so outright. He waltzed around her a bit, smiling as she smiled back. He liked her and she liked him. There was no issue with that.
XXXX

Pete Vs. Facilier

"More than ok. This is your home now, my boy. And should those nasty gulgans rear their heads here, they'll be eating my magic rather than come near you. They won't ever bother you again, I promise" Facilier replied, a sympathetic grin on his face. He felt awful for this kid. He was abused for his whole life and has been so used to it. It was not fair to be mistreated as a kid.

"Come on, I'm not THAT good of a liar. Of course I mean it. You and Olive mean a lot to me, and it ain't just because of your father. You two became a part of my world" He then waited as Pete warned him to protect himself "I'm not that rusty, my boy. Give me your best" He then shielded himself in a way that was self defense.
XXXX

Prick Vs. Scroop

"I believe we are. That's a good thing too" Prick shrugged, relieved the alien was going to be a bit easy on him. He then was shocked to see Scroop ask him to go first. Prick got a simple weapon and charged at Scroop, a bit nervous due to not wanting to hurt him.
XXXXX

Kal Vs. Alucard

"That is true. It fascinates me, these humans. They can be so cruel yet so kind. It impresses me" Alucard shrugged. The inconsistency of a human was what he enjoyed. That they could be complex. With him or monsters, you can tell there was absolutely no hope for them. With humans? It was hard to tell even with someone devious or evil.

"Ah I see. Well do not worry, we all have weaknesses. Even me even if some believe me to be immortal. There is no such thing. It is just a ruse to manipulate idiotic people into working for them. Eternal life is impossible" Alucard replied, patient and evidentially friendly. It was true, at least in his mind, that immortality didn't really exist. Gods may live much longer but they could die, and vampires were vunerable to death. Death was the only true result. If only he wasn't so afraid of it in the past. Now he was welcome to the idea.

Alucard chuckled darkly as Kal replied that in his world, vampires were just stories "Well maybe it is a good thing. But on the other hand, you're no longer in that world, and I assure you I am very real. I'm the most real thing you'll ever know. It will be quite fun to fight you, I can tell" He chuckled again, both interested and amused.

He then was shocked to see the man go so fast. No one has run so fast since his servant, Seras. He was dumbfounded. This man definitely was different. He saw Kal give him his bullets back and Alucard took them carefully. "Not a single scratch on them" He then began laughing "Oh this is definitely going to be a fun time" He laughed again "You definitely impressed me. I haven't seen one be so fast before... not since.." He trailed off to his beloved enemy, Anderson. He shook his head "Let's go again, shall we?" He waited a bit before trying to aim at Kal once more, but at places where it wouldn't completely hurt him.
XXXX

D.H Vs. Trickster

"The honor is mine" Trickster smiled, the boy definitely had a good head on his shoulders. He could sense it. He then saw D.H use his magic and Trickster dodged with ease. He flipped away from the fire ball and got his wand out. Aiming it at the ground beneath D.H. Instantly the ground around him shook, just enough to not hurt D.H but to definitely make him trip.

[Bizarro/Kal Lichon]

Shaggy Vs. Moarte:

Shaggy smiled.

"You know I used to scared of monsters. I made a career out of catching criminals who disguised as monsters. And now I am one. Again. I guess it's not so bad this time. Facilier's magic allows me to be human when I want to instead of at the mercy of the moon. Or being stuck as a werewolf forever." said Shaggy.

He smiled at him.

"I hope we can be friends. I was friends with a warlock. But you're the first monster I've wanted to be a friend with." said Shaggy.

Shaggy kept training with him and chuckled at Moarte's words.

"You certainly have a way with words my friend." s aid Shaggy.

XXXX

Siri Vs Shere-Khan:

Siri grinned.

"That's a shame that there weren't many tigers around. What do you think about clouded leopards?" asked Siri.

She was curious about him. Shere Khan was strong and attractive. He'd make a good mate and they could make good cubs together. He looked interested but maybe she was reading the signals wrong.

"I was stuck on an island for awhile with no other jungle cats around me. You're the first one I've seen in years. Perhaps the first one as I don't remember how I got to that island." said Siri.

She assumed some humans must have dropped her off there. Or a storm maybe washed her away from her family and she'd ended up here. Either way she was here now and she didn't want to go back to that island all alone.

XXXX

Pete Vs. Facilier:

Pete smiled.

"Thank you. I finally have a family. And I'd never thought I'd have one." said Pete.

Pete chuckled.

"I think you could be if you want to. But I believe you." said Pete.

Pete raised an eyebrow as Facilier said he wasn't rusty.

"Ok. you asked for it." said Pete.

He kept breathing flames at him while trying to flap his wings. But he was still too small to fly. So he couldn't

XXXX

Prick Vs. Scroop:

Scroop nodded.

"I was second in command of my pirate crew so you're not the first I've helped train before. If you want any pointers let me know." said Scroop.

When Prick charged at him Scroop held up his sword as they weapons clashed.

"Not bad. Impressive." said Scroop.

XXXX

Kal Vs. Alucard:

Kal chuckled.

"I know. Some humans can be more monstrous than vampires or werewolves. While some can be so nice it's sickening." said Kal.

He nodded.

"It's kind of ironic. Some wish to have eternal life but there are some who'd hate to be a vampire or a werewolf." said Kal.

Kal chuckled.

"Well I did die in my world so I'm glad I'm not there. And I'm honored to meet a real vampire. Whether I win or lose." said Kal.

Kal smirked at Alucard's reaction.

"What'd be the fun in me being someone you could take out easily? That'd be so boring." said Kal.

Kal nodded.

"Sure. Show me what you got." said Kal.

He fired laser blasts at the ground trying to distract Alucard while trying to dodge his attacks. Then Kal swung a punch at Alucard's chest.

XXXX

D.H Vs. Trickster:

Dark Heart grinned.

"It's been too long since I've trained. Most of my fights have been unworthy opponents from the other armies. But I think you could be a real challenge. And I look forward to it." said Dark Heart.

Dark Heart blinked in surprise as Trickster pulled out a wand and he shook the ground as Dark Heart fell over. He groaned and got up.

"Very impressive." said Dark Heart.

[Shere-Khan]

Shaggy Vs. Moarte

Moarte nodded "Indeed. Tis better to control your ability to be human. And do not worry, what you have done in the past matters not to me. I am still willing to be friends" Moarte beamed brightly "Absolutely! Let us be friends and spar as said friends!" He then laughed boastfully as Shaggy praised his word play
XXXX

Siri Vs. Shere Khan

"Oh I find them to be beautiful. Wonderful opportunities to be mates. I like leopards of all kinds. It is just my reputation back home made them intimidated by me. Let us just say I am very powerful from where I come from" Shere Khan replied with a interested grin. She then explained a little of her background "Really? That is a pity. I do apologize on your behalf. Must of been quite intimidating to be on that island alone"
XXXX

Pete Vs. Facilier

"You do and we ain't going away, my boy" Facilier promised. He then chuckled as Pete praised him for being a damn good liar. He then nodded, anticipating the boy dragon's attack. He dodged with ease, despite some close calls with fire. "Atta boy! With aim like that, they'd be cowering before you! Again!" Facilier commanded, trying to appear fun towards the child.
XXXX

Prick Vs. Scroop

"I would appreciate that greatly. Thanks!" Prick replied, glad to see scroop be helpful. He then clashed some more as the other praised him. Prick replied, surprisingly modest "Why thank you. I am glad. You're very good yourself, scroop" He then continued to practice with Scroop.
XXXX

Kal Vs. Alucard

"Agreed. I would rather fight someone with no heart than someone with a bleeding one. It is most annoying. I do like compassion but in specific doses" Alucard agreed and liked this man already. They already shared a same philosophy. He then chuckled "Idiotic I call it. Humans do not understand they cannot always get what they want. Believe me"

"It is a honor to have to spar with someone who has a good mind on their body. I am glad you know I am real. In your world, they'd be terrified of me. Hell, they're terrified of me in my world" Alucard grinned and his sharp teeth showed as he chuckled amusedly. He was enjoying this guy more and more.

"Oh I definitely like you. You and I are going to get along. Let's enjoy ourselves" Alucard replied at Kal's response of not wanting to be boring. After he said that nodded as Kal demanded him to show what he got. Alucard dodged the lazer blasts but due to that he couldn't dodge the punch. Alucard laughed in a weird type of joy, before charging with his guns aiming right at Kal.
XXXX

D.H Vs. Trickster

"You seem to appear quite the challenge yourself. May the best spar partner win" Trickster politely responded. He was bored too of simple folk and wanted a fight he could remember. Trickster was liking him and wanted to have some fun. He then chuckled as D.H was impressed by him "Thank you. Now your turn. Do not hold back"

[Scroop]

Shaggy Vs. Moarte:

Shaggy nodded.

"Good. Besides I guess most of the creeps I ran into were monsters in masks. And well not really doing honor to monsters like yourselves who prefer to just terrorize for fun most of the time. So I guess capturing them and throwing them all in jail was doing a service to monsterkind." said Shaggy.

He grinned.

"Well then friend let's continue. But I hope you won't go too easy on me. I can't let my fear beat me or I'll end up hurt or worse out on the battlefield. Or someone else I care about like you who was depending on me." said Shaggy.

He growled trying to sound ferocious before lunging at Moarte swinging a claw at him knowing Moarte would likely dodge or block it somehow.

XXXX

"Siri Vs. Shere Khan:

Siri grinned.

"I can see how powerful you really are and I respect that." said Shere khan.

She sighed.

'It was more lonely than intimidating. No one to really talk to or any potential mates. I didn't think I would ever find someone worthy. Until today." said Siri.

She paused grinning as she rubbed her head against his.

"I wish to become your mate. If you'll have me. Of course that's after I defeat you here." said Siri, challenging him and offering a proposal at the same time.

XXXX

Pete Vs. Facilier:

Pete smiled.

"You'd better not. I've already lost two families. I never really knew my birth parents. And then I lost Lampie, Nora and her husband when I ca me here. I don't want to lose a third family." said Pete.

He never considered the Gogans as family and even if they showed up today he'd reject them. Pete laughed glad he was doing good and grinning at the praise from Facilier.

"I will." said Pete.

The young transformed dragon charged at him breathing flames at Facilier.

XXXX

Prick Vs. Scroop:

Scroop nodded.

"We're only as strong together. Too many weak links and the whole army will fail. We don't have to be all be invincible or the best fighter in the army. But we need to at least be able to defend ourselves. And that's what training like this is good for everyone." said Scroop.

Scroop grinned.

"Your welcome. And thank you for the compliment." said Scroop.

He charged again as their swords clashed.

"Getting harder to try to hit you. You sure you haven't trained before?" asked Scroop, grinning at him.

XXXX

Kal Vs. Alucard:

"Definitely agree with you there. Unfortunately pretty much everyone in Critic's army has those bleeding hearts and pesky morals. You can't do this or that's not right. The lectures and judgements get so annoying after awhile." said Kal.

He chuckled as Alucard said it was idiotic.

"And that is why some humans are stupid despite having a brain. Sometimes I wonder how people even function." said Kal.

Kal grinned.

"Good. I'm just glad you're on our side. I wouldn't want to end up fighting for you or real. Or get bitten by you. I doubt I'd turn to a vampire but I doubt I'd survive." said Kal.

He paused registering for a moment the identity of another vampire.

"I'm not sure if you're aware we have another vampire here. Myotismon. I'm sure you two could get along quite well. So far you two are the only vampires in this war that I'm aware of." said Kal.

Kal chuckled.

"Good. This has already been fun and I like you as well. Besides I guess I'm a bit of a monster myself. I guess in a way I'm kind of an alien version of Frankenstein's monster. Not sure if you have that story from your world. Well I started out that way but thanks to this cloned body I'm more durable and have a lot more abilities." Said Kal.

Kal grinned seeing his punch had hit him as Alucard charged at him again. Hearing Alucard's laugh had Kal mirroring it with a laugh of his own and charged towards the vampire as well.

DH grinned.

"Thank you." said Dh.

He grinned jumping into the air and transforming into his dragon form.

"Well you said not to hold back." said DH.

He chuckled and flew at Trickster breathing flames at the ground around him.

Shaggy vs. Moarte

"It indeed was a service. Us monsters get a bad rap thanks to these humans. For that I'm grateful" Moarte gave a small bow after that. He then gave a firm nod as Shaggy admitted he needed to be a better fighter not just for himself but for the army around him. Suddenly he growled, lunging for him, Moarte was quick to dodge but he gave a enthusastic grin "Ah, excellent! A couple seconds faster and you would've easily bested me! Keep this up and you will be a winner in no time!"

Siri Vs. Shere-Khan

Shere-Khan smirked, raising his head up as Siri told him she respected his power. It gave the tiger quite a lot of pride, as if he didn't have enough already. Nevertheless as Siri explained her situation being more lonely than scary, he nodded sympathetically "Ah, I see. I can certainly sympathize with that feeling. The need for company is quite important" He then raised a brow as Siri felt she wasn't worthy for a mate until now. Then she rubbed against his head and he purred softly with interest. He then gave a low chuckle as she challenged him as well as proposed to him. "Ah, straight-forward and spirited. I love that about you" He chuckled again before replying sweetly "I accept your proposal. I will have you as my mate" He then rubbed her head again "And I also accept your challenge, although I must warn you not to be so confident in defeating me"

Pete Vs. Facilier

"I'm strong in my craft, son. Don't worry your head about it. Let me take care of things. You'll be safe and soon you'll be the future ruler of this world" Facilier replied with a solemn vow. He then smiled proudly as his boy took his encouragement and proceeded to fire flames. Facilier again dodged successfully, but the flames left a burnt mark in the ground. Facilier clapped his hands "That's my boy! Keep at it!"

Prick Vs. Scroop

"You got a real good point there, friend. The better fighters we are, the better chance we have to win" Prick replied, basically agreeing to Scroop's point of the importance of training. He then continued to train with scroop and beamed a little at the praise he recieved. He then chuckled shyly as Scroop praised him for doing well so far "No, I assure you, I was way worse before you showed up. But thank you though"

Kal Vs. Alucard

Alucard chuckled as Kal continued to say things that the vampire himself pretty much agreed upon. The vampire nodded in agreement "Well it explains why this war is continuing, someone needs to stand up and stop worrying about hurting others. War is violent. War is ruthless. The sooner those heroes learn that, the faster we can all go home" Alucard shook his head. He understood compassion but he was no stranger to fighting. In fact, he felt it was honorable to kill your enemy in the right way. He then laughed boastfully as Kal commented how was it possible for humans to be so dumb yet still survive "My friend, I wish I could answer that question. I have yet to figure it out myself"

"It would be up to me frankly. If you were a honorable man who wanted your life, I'd turn you. If you weren't, well, you'd definitely wish you never sparred with me. Nevertheless, I am glad I am on your side. It seems with time we can be good friends" Alucard said optimistically. He then nodded with a satisfied nod as the conversation turned towards Myotismon "It would be nice to have a vampire ally. It had been a while. My previous job required me to kill vampires who would destroy cities. Although I like violence, I have standards and usually these vampires would purely kill just to harm innocent lives. There is a line in the sand I have after all" He shrugged absentmindedly "It's not out of a bleeding heart mind you, it just is logical not to kill so many. Hence why I killed them, to prevent absolute destruction. But I am sure Myotismon and I would get along fine"

"Oh we do. I understand you plenty. In fact, many crazy things are in my world. That doesn't surprise me" Alucard chuckled lowly, as if immensely amused "When you are as old as I am, you tend to not get surprised often" Alucard then laughed some more as Kal seemed to be just as excited as he was. He successfully dodged Kal's attack but it did manage to tear a tiny bit of his coat. Alucard got even more excited "Come on, friend! Come on! Don't hold back!"

D.H Vs. Trickster

"You are certainly right. I did" Trickster didn't seem surprised nor frightened by D.H's sudden transformation. As the flames came for him, he simply jumped and did a surprising flip around them before shaking the ground with his wand again. Then he snapped his fingers and instantly a rope came out of his hand, he proceeded to try to tie D.H's feet to get him to fall down.
