Turkey Day Throwdown

[Raven]

((Thanks mate, you're a prince among psychopathic lizards folk.))


Opening his wings the great turkey tried to flap and regain his balance but instead he just ended up falling faster, impaling himself on the spikes but also crushing the reptile's sale and back, smashing her into the plains. Thankfully Gluttorous' gony body kept the spikes from digging deep enough to cause extreme harm, but the gashes they left behind were nothing he could ignore either. As he tried to stand up Drakia lashed out, using her tail to coil around the bird's neck, digging in to try to both cut and strangle the great beast at the same time.

Blood ran down Gluttorous' neck, pooling in his matted feathers as the turkey was unable to even let out a startled squawk. Turning his eyes back to his foe Gluttorous managed to get his feet up under himself and bodily rip the sail-spikes from his flesh. This of course was followed by rivers of blood, but the pain kept his mind sharp. Darting his neck down Gluttorous wrapped his jaws around the base of Drakia's tail and bit down, his double edged beak sliced right into the meat of the reptile, cutting through the ash and threatening to completely remove the limb completely if he kept up the pressure.

At the thought of losing her tail, Drakia became a ball of flashing jaws and claws, trying to rip the giant bird several new gashes. Dropping his foe back to the ground, Gluttorous found his neck free of the ripping tail, however he was still quite angry...and hungry, always hungry.

Opening his jaws once more the turkey bit into the reptile's side, using a foot to pin her down and create leverage as he tore a massive swathe of flesh before swallowing it down with a single gulp. Hissing like a crazed beast Drakia squirmed out from under the avain's foot and was about to right herself when the turkey charged, bodily crashing into her with all his weight thrown with decent speed and force.

Bowling Drakia over to the ground and sending her spinning. Gluttorous took this moment to take a flying leap, using his wings to gain a bit of height as he closed them and extended one rock hard talon, aiming this single point of contact with all his combined weight and strength behind it...all of it was aimed right at the dizzy ashen queen's skull...

Pain and bloodlust raking her body in waves, Drakia was thrown into a state of hyper-alertness, her hunting instincts running rampant. The crazed lizard could sense everything around her. She felt the motion of the grass, taking in the shivers of each individual blade, she heard the chirp of insects and the breath of tiny creatures, and- above all else- she felt the cataclysmic descent of Gluttorous. The bulky bird was displacing a huge amount of air, and, although the bird was above her range of vision, Drakia could certainly sense the rush of the sky thrown down by his mass across her bare flesh. She knew the bird was coming down, but- even in her state of super sensitivity- could not determine exactly where in the split second she had to act. Hoping, the charred reptile curled her powerful limb and hurled herself in the direction that the subtle currents of the air took her.

Fortunately for the killer, her skull was moved from the path of the turkey's extended claw. Unfortunately for the killer, she had leapt forward and caught the stony talon square between the shoulder blades.

The blackened huntress screamed as her cracked flesh was pierced with a spew of crimson. As an automatic reaction, the twisted one's spiny sails flew open, and the two foes skewered each other in an instant- Gluttorous on Drakia's spines, Drakia on the bird's claw. The ground beneath the battling beasts cratered, and the two carnivores tumbled away from each other trailing red. Drakia, the lighter, frailer of the two, had clearly received the worst of the impact, the space between her shoulders all but a wet pit and a pained limp clinging to her forelegs as she blindly thrashed her way to her feet. Gluttorous rose with a loud clap of his wings, and his beady, tired eyes were surprised not to find his foe barreling towards him like a living missile. Instead, she was rampaging across the savannah, her black body flailing wildly and her wounds flinging blood. The bird was confused, titling his beaked skull, but soon realized what game the hunter was at.

From her thrashing form, soot rolled off in clouds, Drakia's ashen hide spreading itself across the flat landscape like a dark blanket. The lean shape of the lizard was soon lost, and Gluttorous himself was swallowed up, surrounded on all sides by dense slate. The bird raised his wings defensively, knowing the reptile could strike from nowhere. There was a sudden splatter of blood from his chest, Drakia somehow managing to twist past his wings and slash across his breast with her saber-fangs. The killer female was gone in a crack of her boney tail, and Glutt was left only with a fading leer and a wracking pain in his flesh. The bird stumbled as he lost blood from just above his heart. Another unseen swoosh! and his back was laid open, this time by gnarled claws. The turkey lurched with a groan, a red-striped hump forming over his muscular shoulders. Black ran down his feathers like paint, ash smeared in the blood like a demented arts-and-crafts project.

Crack!

The unmistakable bullwhip of Drakia's tail rang out, and Gluttorous could hear a low, fast whistle swiftly approaching his left ear...

Unable to swing his neck out of the way in time, the blow lanced across the back of the giant turkey's head, disorienting him and making it hard for the giant to stand. Stumbling he barely noticed when he felt another slice across his chest, though his dense bones and hard feathers had done their best to protect the mammoth avian, they could not stand to all of these punishing blows. Gluttorous' chest looked like someone had taken a chainsaw to it several times, nearly bare of feathers all together and twisted into a bloody mess.

However the attack was a blessing as well, with the ashen hound ripping into his body, Gluttorous knew right where she was. Opening his maw the giant lashed out, managing to dig hi double edged jaw into the reptile's shoulder. The serrated beat and railroad fangs anchored her to him and vice-versa. There would be no wiggling free unless her flesh fell apart of the turkey no longer wanted to hold her. Considering the hunger and temperaments of the two fighters, the first was far more likely.

Yanking her up and away from his chest, Gluttorous easily shouldered the smaller kaiju's weight on his neck alone. Ignoring the pain from his stripped wing, the turkey took to the sky with a few great flaps of his wings. This took the dark colored female away from her soot, to the territory ruled by birds.

Flying high Gluttorous would swing his neck back and forth, using Drakia's weight to drag his beak and fangs through her flesh, making the lizard hiss out as her body was tore asunder. Finally her flesh gave way and she was sent spinning off in free-fall. Wasting no time the turkey gulped down the chunk of flesh that was left in his beak and then turned in the air. Aiming his head directly at the falling reptile he unleashed a massive belch. This lance of air pressure crashed into Drakia's back, widening her wounds and cracked her scales enough for blood to seep through. The belch nearly ripped the majority of her flesh clean off, However it had a secondary affect, it caused the falling reptile to speed up.

Just as she was realizing this Drakia hit the ground with a resounding crack. Though aching and battered, Drakia popped open a bruised eye just in time to see a shadow desend over her little crater in the ground. However this shadow was not coming in with the grace of a hunting scavenger. Summoning up her rage and raw drive to kill, she managed to pull her legs up and bare her fangs just as the giant fatass hit her like several tons of bricks.

This new crash widened the crater even further and slammed Drakia brutally against the ground, stunning her. Given that his foe wasn't moving at the moment, Gluttorous decided it was time to begin his feast. He did not expect Drakia to get up from his savage attacks and he didn't care if she was still alive when he began to feed. Slowly the turkey turned about as he settled down on the body of his foe, like some sort of grisly perch, then opened his jaws and lowered his head, intent on sating his growling stomach on Drakia's body...

[Fainis the Sadistic Pansexual]

Gluttorous clicked his deadly beak in anticipation, his snarling stomach performing flips of joy as the stench of tenderized blood and flesh filled his nostrils. Hunching down with a low squawk, the bird opened his toothed bill to begin his long awaited feast...

Rearing with a splitting yowl that rattled in her insane skull like a pitched drum, Drakia reached up and plunged her gnarled, bone-tipped claws into the turkey's throat!

Gluttorous gagged in agony as jagged talons gouged the inside of his windpipe, bloody stripes painted all up and down its slimy walls by a sneering Ash Queen. The bruiser of a bird coughed up blood and bile, his maw spewing a hideous mix of bodily fluids from around the charred arm of Drakia. The psychotic lizard had lodged her limb nearly all the way to the elbow, only the curved spine that adorned the joint stopping her from forcing its ashen length further. As Gluttorous oozed from his gored mouth, the mad reptile thrust her black head into the vile flow of fluid and lapped it up, vomit and all. The female beast's pupils were mere pinpoint, tiny dots almost lost in the glowing yellow plain of her irises. Pushed further off the edge than she had ever been since first being scorched by the firebird Phenoraixa, the felt none of the pain from the flier's railroad spike fangs piercing her brittle hide, nor acknowledged the distress of her taste buds as she drank the avian's fluids. All she knew, all she cared about, was blood.

And damn all if she didn't bathe in it.

Working up a mighty wind in his bloodied gullet, Gluttorous unleashed a belch, the burp bursting in his throat like a gaseous landmine. The primordial bird's scaly neck actually expanded some, like an ugly balloon, before unleashing a hot flood of blood that launched Drakia's arm out like a crossbow bolt and blasted red dots. Gluttorous groaned as he staggered back, thick red lines stretching between his beak and the drenched earth. His jugular was practically turned inside out, the interior of his throat lined by a heavy layer of ruined tissue and gore. Even a thing as ravenous as Gluttorous could not help but gag at the sheer, overwhelming reek of it in his mouth and nose, all but drowning him in his own liquified meat.

Drakia, the skin peeled from her red-stained forearm like a bad barbeque, limped towards the stumbling bird aggressively, her shoulders stabbing the air and her rump swaying, tail whipping behind her like a readied flail. With a sky-splitting crack!, the ivory whip descended. In no condition to be attempting any intricate evasive maneuvers, Gluttorous could do nothing but twist his head to one side and brace himself as the blackened killer's dagger-like tail tip slashed open his cheek, spilling even more life essence into his flooded gullet. Sneering like a scorched gargoyle, Drakia cracked her tail again and brought it whistling down towards the other half of the turkey's crimson-splattered face...

[Raven]

((OOC: I see your plan now! You tricky bugger! Your trying to win by default as I'm too busy gagging to write a post!))


With a huff Gluttorous opened his beak and caught the tail in his jaws, not for the first time. Seizing this advantage Drakia thrashed her tail about and sparks flew as the razor edges of the tail ripped and tore against the sledgehammer shaped beak. Chips began to fall into the puddle of blood under the giant bird's shadow as he forced himself to keep hold on his lunch. With a sudden yank he tore the lizard off her feet and sent her flying over his back, just in tail for his clubbed tail to fling up and catch the female, almost folding her over by the force before she was sent spinning out across the plains.

Spitting out a stream of blood, broken teeth and beak shards, Gluttorous made the slow advance on Drakia's crumpled form. He was breathing heavy, not only from the numerous wounds on his chest and the torn throat, but all this damage was starting to tire him. This was quite a rare thing, on a good day the giant could run, fly and fight for hours on end and only feel mildly winded, but Drakia had held out far longer than most kaiju he was used to preying on.

His scale covered legs had come out rather unharmed from the match, they carried the avian as he walked over to his fallen foe. As soon as he was in range she lunged. It seemed Drakia wasn't as stunned from the blow as Gluttorous had first thought and she was soon on him, stumbling a bit as she pooled her strength and sank her fangs into his leg. It was like biting into stone, it sent a uncomfortable tingle up through the she-beast's teeth but she held firm. If she could chew the legs off the bird she could win!

The owner of said legs was not too happy about this, wobbling as he forced himself to balance, Gluttorous raised up his free leg and kicked down, stomping Drakia right into the shoulders and driving her to the ground, leaving long gashes in his leg as she tried to hang on to her meal. Like a desperate man putting out a fire, Gluttorous rained down several blows until Drakia had to give up her hold.

With a breathless hiss the turkey aimed his beak right at her skull and straightened his back, craning his neck he pulled every ounce of power he head before swinging his head down, sending a massive hammer blow down at Drakia with the intent of shattering the crazed demon once and for all...

[Fainis the Sadistic Pansexual]

(Heh, Draks didn't play fair before going psycho-killer batshit crazy, so she sure ain't playing softball now. And her latest plan reminds me of another tenacious character clad in black...)

The flesh-ripping beak plunged down like a nail-tipped hammer, but Drakia, the mad creature that she was, threw her jaws up and caught it in a monstrous bite! The bloodied head of the black horror rocked back greatly, hollowed craa-acks of age ringing from her curved neck. The old monster moaned at this. The turkey gurgled miserably as well, Drakia's ivory pair of saber-teeth carving deep into the sides of his neck, straight through the boney skin, nearly slicing his head from his shoulders. Drakia twisted her vicious skull, trying to pry off the bird's skull, but all she did was ravage the interior of her own jaws. The female killer groaned, moisture gathering in her wild eyes and red dribbling from her mouth. The lizard's tongue was split wide open, nearly severed into separate pieces. Gluttorous's beak was a sharp, dangerous thing, and she was literally gnawing on it. A steaming backwash of crimson was chocking the charred beast, but her teary orbs gleamed with something wicked and fast approaching. From around the thrashing beak of her foe, the bird flailing like a feathered hurricane, Drakia sucked in air, her narrow chest swelling.

The she-beast nearly coughed her guts up, more than half strangled, blood pulled into her lungs like little droplets of death by drowning, the terror of suffocation, but it all soon came rushing out in one hot breath! A war-like howl!

A blast of wind that whipped the ashen skin from the hunter's face and hurled it directly into the eyes of Gluttorous!

The bird sprung back with a warbling crow, coal dust screaming in his eye sockets like white-hot balls of agony. Blood and soot fell from the pained head of the avian, the instinctual clench and scrunching of his brow only intensifying the suffering that pounded into his skull. Thrown into his eyes with such speed and force from the cry Drakia had unleashed, the ash was like a tempest of razors instead of pale powder! The Ash Queen herself stalked forward, her shredded tongue hanging out and red falling from her mouth like a horrible curtain. Becoming a blurred streak of teeth and fury, the burnt beast slammed into Gluttorous's sturdy body and ripped a scattered wave of red from the bird! Dark plumage was sent in all direction, carried by breezes of blood and ash, and Drakia let loose a tremendous yowl as she was showered in liquid life, all of her talons painted crimson by one last blow that stretched the whole of the mutative turkey's torso. But the winged bruiser would not be opened up without striking a final blow himself. A bone-hard wing punched out, and Drakia caught the hit square in her shoulder. The crazed lizard was flipped up with a gasp of pain, spinning through the air like a great black drill, then crashed down on the struck shoulder. Between the hard blow and the harsh landing, the old bones of the killer gave way, and Drakia crumpled like something plastic deflating.

One set of claws clasping at her broken collar, the other batting weakly at Gluttorous, Drakia spat and oozed from her ruined maw, unable to continue fighting, unwilling to give up, and unaware that it didn't matter either way...

[Tenshi the Sunkern]

The powerful voice of the UCA rang out to the dying killer and the murderous turkey. "ATEENTION. THIS MATCH IS OVER. THE WINNER IS... GLUTTOROUS! I REPEAT, THE WINNER IS GLUTTOROUS. NOW RETURN TO YOUR LIVING QUARTERS AT ONCE!"

(OOC: GOOD GRAVY VANILLA DOME SERVED WITH STRAWBERRY. THis was a BLOODY match. I felt very tempted to start unleashing missle strikes every single attack for how gory things got. But considering the natures of the fighters, and the fact I wanted to see just how bloody this got... Still, I was about to rain missles and asteroids on this fight with warnings. However, while both fighters unleashed hell (and Drakia's tactics and plan at the end nearly made me vomit.) Gluttorous seemed to come out of this fight in better shape. This may go down in history as the bloodiest legal fight in the UCA...)

[Fainis the Sadistic Pansexual]

Moments after the announcement rang out, a bright light fell upon Drakia, whisking her away before she could harm herself further. The old monster let out one last shriek of hate as she vanished, her mad pupil trembling towards Gluttorous as her prey 'escaped.'

It was obvious to the UCA that Drakia was too aged to fight much longer. It had been obvious since before the match with Tyrant Ghidorah. It was a issue that had to be ended one way or another. Either the charred beast would be sent to die in a fight or she would be retired before death forcefully took her away. Whichever it came down to, the UCA would have their way in the end. They always had their way in their world of technology over gods, metal over monsters...

... and there was no room for the weakened in their world, no matter their pasts...

[Raven]

((OOC: Woo! Good fight Jones, you pulled no punches.))

Snapping at the now empty air, the giant avian blinked in shock before glancing about. He almost didn't believe what just happened. His kill had been stolen from his grasp, right when it was so close to being rightfully his. For a moment the bird just froze, not moving an inch as a light began to form above him.

Then he shot a blood red glare at the light, not caring if the shine damaged his eyes. It took a lot to tick off Gluttorous, anger was simply too much energy to keep maintained, if a kaiju wasn't careful a bit of untapped rage could lead to death. The turkey was no fool, a single minded glutton at times, but no fool. Right now the bird's long fuse had reached it's end, a battle he could have won was snatched from his grasp and prey that rightfully belonged to him stolen. As Gluttorous vanished into the teleportation light, it's brain seethed, even if the UCA did feed the giant after this match, it would not replace the hard won meal. Something would have to be done about this insult.

[Fainis the Sadistic Pansexual]

(Heh, never have. Congrats on Glutt's win. It was a fun one.)
