King of Nexus Round 1 Fight 6
(After Mr. Satan and QP are teleported to the virtual world, Hikaru who is hard at work at the Virtual Reality machine's console. After a few minutes of focus amid the crowd's excitement of the current fight, two more pads pop out from the other end of the machine, and Hikaru let's out a satisfied sigh. He then takes the mic)
Alright folks, after some technical work, we are able to get multiple fighters into the machine! I've made it so they can fight in another virtual reality room, so they don't interfere with other matches happening at the same time!
Now let's welcome the other two fighters, I feel like this will be a match to remember!
Please welcome...
Janus
and the amazing Spider Man!!!
(The crowd explodes in cheers and applause, not expecting to be treated to two fights at the same time, they were pleased beyond words)
A young man rushes through the air of the city, web lines flying from his wrists as he grins under a mask.
"Phew, hope that little scuffle at the bank doesn't make me late! It'd be a seriously lame showing to be anything but on time for this."
As he begins to hear the host's voice, Spidey's grin would grow wider and he'd begin to rest on a building's wall for a moment... Right until he hears the word "and", at which point he fires off one last web and quickly swings into the area. Flipping through the air and waving to the crowd before he lands on the ground with his hands pointed down at the cry of "Amazing Spider-Man".
"Thank you thank you, kind citizens! I'd generally speaking be dealing with things along the lines of crime and such, but hey this whole thing seemed like a good way to put my limits to the test!"
He'd quickly slide up to a standing pose with his arms held in the air, even under the mask his excitement would be clear. After all, this whole VR thing... He's impressed with what he's seen, no doubt.
"Hey Boss!" Lola chirped in as usual,
"...yes Lola?"
"That suited guy is now fighting! But he's...the Spider man...? Must have been the name of some comic book hero..."
'What are we? In a super human society?' Copen thought to himself, but he was disturbed at this thought as of course, this would mean that Adepts have already conquered the world...maybe he's one too.
"Lola, any septimal signs on him?"
"Nothing really, I don't have anything that shows that he's an Adept...but his molecular structure is different somehow..."
That was another brain teaser for Copen, but right now, analyzing Spidey, along with finalizing the weapon he gained after defeating Kushala and the gem he got were his top priorities...
Janus already sensing a potential feast is terribly pleased with the welcoming crowd. He wasn't particularly interested in the fight, but he was starving. Being too lazy to bother pulling off his usual nightly shenanigans this was now his best chance to eat. So with a certain flair he appears twirling a cane and looking none the bothered. His trench coat flaps a bit behind him as he playfully twirls a hat before making it dissapear with a wink.
Hullo Hullo humans I am the kind nightmare eater.
He stamps his cane to the ground solidifying his form.
I hope you provide proper compensation for any entertainment I may bring today.
Food for work was always a delectable deal for Janus.
AI:VIRTUAL WORLD READY....NEXT LOCATION...TIMES SQUARE
Hikaru: Looks like we’re going to the city folks!! ENERGIZE!!!
(Hikaru slams the button on the console, teleporting the two to the city that never sleeps, New York City. They stand in the middle of Times Square, as the virtual crowd and the outside crowd watch in awe as the two fighters are about to exchange blows in a heated match)

Live and Let die, fighters!!! FIGHT!!!!
(Battle theme: https://youtu.be/vBOC7EwFf4o)
The boy grins under his mask. Well then, since nobody can actually die in here... No sense holding back this time. He'd quickly sling a web onto the top of a building, moving swiftly as he climbs atop the roof and gets away from Janus. With that, he'd fire off another pair of webs down below, attaching them to a street lamp and ripping it up toward himself.
"Generally I wouldn't do this without knowing you can take it, but hey we won't die in here anyways so catch pal!"
Inhuman strength and speed propel it through the air, the large metal pole flying towards Janus at a high speed as Spidey once again moves. This time he'd end off for now by moving a bit further away, and clinging to a building high above as he observe how his foe reacts to the simple attack from below.
Janus barely reacts to the scenery change instead focusing on the added presence of so many people. He can't help the elation he feels at the possibility of feeding off so many. However upon sniffing the air Janus growls in disdain as he realizes that all the new people in the area are woefully fake. Only the boy gives off the scent of anything worth eating yet he is out of reach by the time Janus is aware of this. Thus Janus is left picking at his teeth in annoyance and not paying much attention to the fight until the boy yells at him. Lazily he puts up his right arm and it hazily shifts into a grayed paw of unknown origin. The paw itself is an amalgamation of claws and various tufts of fur. As his arm is turned into a muscly mass to support it. As if it were always there the appendage easily catches the metal pole and bends it. Ripping it apart with its messily layered claws. As he does this Janus looks around for something to make his meal come down and he spots it.
I only like making deals up close so come and find me young one.
He proceeds to run into the virtual crowd loosing his mangled arm as quickly as it came. This time his entire forms sheds off just as quick and he develops different human traits entirely. Resulting in him looking like an entirely different person as he swims into the present virtual crowd.
"OOOH, this Janus guy though...He's like...a shape shifter..." Lola said thought fully as she analyzed Janus too,
'A shape shifter..?' Copen thought to himself, 'If this Janus guy wins, then I may have a hard time dealing with him after Star...He may be difficult to fight against...' He thought as he started mentally devising battle strategies on both of the fighters.
Right, he can do some stupid shape-shifting BS too... Annoying, and he's clearly got a reason for wanting to fight up close. So there's only one thing to do with this. Quip. And of course, tech.
"Aww, what's the matter old guy? Don't want to play at this whole ranged combat thing? Seems kinda lame to me just trying to blend in with the NPCs. But hey, they're just digital so that's fine! Enchanced recon mode."
His eyes begin to glow, thermal vision taking place of normal as the crowd of "people" is rendered as nothing more than blotches of grey across the field. No heat to speak of, after all, they're just bits of data... His foe, on the other hand, is quite alive. He'd swing across, tracking his foe's heat and quickly pulling up a car from the ground with his free hand. As he passes over, the boy would simply toss it down at his foe's skull.
"Now for step 2."
As the car crashes down, likely crushing a few NPCs along the way. Spidey would keep moving, aiming to go around his foe and around the time the car reaches its target, he'd perch on a building's wall before blasting off a pair of web lines aimed for Janus's back, hoping to slam the man down into the ground with inhuman strength if they hit.
"Hope my little distraction works out, though no telling with this one..."
Fighting from afar is pretty cowardly~
Janus intones as the entire bottom half of his face falls apart allowing for the formation of a long monochrome trunk. Tusks of twin ivory form out of his blackened cheek bones on the sides and with precision the newly made trunk wraps around the car. Crushing it using the full force of the trunks mid section until it is nothing but a metallic mess.
Come a little closer boy so I could show you all my fun tricks.
The same clawed appendage from before comes forth, but this time it sprouts of Janus' spine. Crunching of bones can be heard as the claws practically explode from his back just to catch the webbing. Their razors dig deep into caught silk and rips them at the seams as Janus gazes up at spiderman with a relaxed gaze. With his monstrous additions it would be an insult to call the man with an arm out of his back and a trunk anything close to human. Which was never what Janus wanted to be anyway. All the transformations were an intrinsic part of his being and now all the sifting and breaking was making him hungry. He felt so famished now that his fangs were beginning to come out breaking the skin on his lips. His voice now came out almost hoarse as he watches his prey continue to avoid him.
Come and entertain me my spider.
Gotta stay focused here, and this guy is getting more and more like a monster... As for being a coward, Nah.
"You say cowardly, I say smart! Doing what your enemy wants is generally speaking a bad plan in my experience."
There's gotta be something here right? But for now, he can't really guess as to what... Grr, this guy's been blocking everything easy so far. So what's something he can't block?
"And sorry pal, but I'm only here to entertain myself not you!"
Another web line, rushing across buildings for a bit before he'd pull himself up to the roof of one. Staring down toward Janus with a curious look before switching one shooter to rapid, and the other to web grenades. Blobs of webbing would rush toward the "man", aiming to slam into his legs and lower chest in some effort to annoy and distract him, at the same time, however, Spidey would also toss 2 web grenades, one landing in front of the man, another a few feet behind him. Assuming nothing was done to stop them, they'd explode with a burst of force as a pair of tough webbing nets rush out to cover Janus. Naturally, they'd likely only slow him down at best. But for now, that's all Pete wants.
What a shame.
Janus almost seems sad as he says this and his extra appendages reform into his skin leaving behind no mark. His fangs remain out in their sharp glory and instead of pulling yet another added appendage. His legs shift into the lengthy ones of a gazelle and he finally begins to swing about the crane that he brought with him. With new lithe limbs he easily side steps the blots of webbing as if he were in the midst of a dance. While using his cane as a bat to hit the two web grenades away from his person. He ends the jaunt by blowing on the top of his cane and finally sitting down cross legged with a look of abject boredom. His hunger was palatable but this hunt had grown pretty tiring for him. He liked when they food actually came to him rather then this weak game of cat and mouse. There was really only one thing left to do but to close his eyes and roam.
I bid adieu spider see you on the other plane.
With that said Janus' physical body melts into sand and nothing else is left of his presence. There were greener pastures for feasting and Janus had ultimately tired of the presented to him.
"Wh-what just happened?!" Lola gasped, with shock and confusion, unsure of what literally happened.
"...I have no idea..." Copen said quietly, but was nonetheless shocked too...
"Somehow, some way, the Janus guy decided to call it quits..." Lola said, trying to analyze the sand that Janus just melted into.
"If anything...this at least saves the trouble for trying to strategize against him..." Copen said to himself, because Janus would have been a pain in the ass to try to fight against as he would be largely unpredictable...but in any case, one thing is important,
"Lola, is the new weapon that we analyzed from Kushala ready?" Copen asked, wondering about that too...
"Uhhh, it's a little imperfect, but I'll try to fix the bugs later on..." Lola said, breifly turning into P-doll form to show a bit of a thinking pose before reverting back to orb mode.
AI: DEPLOYING HEALING DRONE....RETURNING TO REALITY....
(The healing drone heals both of the fighters wounds and returns them to the real world.)
Hikaru: Well...that was a little anticlimactic, but the winner is.....
SPIDER MAN!!!!
(The crowd roars and begins to chant Spider Man's name)
He'd grin as he returns to reality, even so... Everyone chanting his name brings back some bad memories. Despite that he'd walk out into the stands and glance around. Searching to see if he can spot any of his fellow fighters who'd been watching. After all, this might just be a good chance to meet new people, make new friends! So on that note, he'd walk over to Copen and wave casually.
"Heya! I guess you watched my match right? Man, you look a bit like a guy I fought in GYM once... Anyway, how's it going over here? I'm guessing you use some kinda armor based on those looks? Reminds me a bit of my mentor actually, guy named Iron-Man, no powers but damn if he can't build amazing tech! Uh moving on though, how's it going man?"
"...Well yes, I do, but how it works is a secret..." Copen says non-chalantly, thinking about this 'Iron Man' that he mentioned.
"It's going well though, I suppose after I fought a dragon."
"Yeah, you did well there Boss!" Lola energetically chirped in. The orb floated towards Spidey, "But I must say, the webbing that you made from those is amazing! How did you build them?" She asks eagerly,
"Lola, we don't need to go prying into other's technology." Copen said to her
"Oh right...sorry..." Lola looks down for a moment in dissapointment and slight sorrow...
"Anyway, who is that guy who fought against you in the GYM that one time?" Copen asked inquisitively.
A secret eh? He can hardly blame the guy, not like Pete is in any hurry to talk about how his own gear works after all.
"A freaking dragon, crazy stuff here man. And geez, I don't even know what Janus was. Get the sense he'd have kicked me around if he tried though."
As for the talking orb and how his webs were built, he'd simply shrug and run a finger across his lips.
"Sorry, but just like your pal's armor that's a trade secret. I'm not exactly crazy about handing out stuff. You know how it goes for us tech guys I'm sure!"
And that guy... Gun something? Just a weird feeling, but they seem somewhat alike for some reason.
"Gunvolt I think? It's this weird feeling I've got, but you seem a bit alike. He wasn't half bad, still won though!"
Copen's fist tensed at the mention of Gunvolt...so he had also made it here too...
"So...the Azure Striker made it here too..." He mumbles to himself before facing Spidey,
"Well, when you see him again, mind if you can tell me where he is?" He asks,
Something about that request seems... Off, and there's a feeling that it wouldn't quite be a great idea. Even so, he'd nod at that request. If fireworks are gonna happen, it'd be best if he shows up to try and stop deaths.
"Yeah sure, heck I'll even come along! Anyways see you around Copen. I've got places to be, people to save!"
With that, a web line would fly from the young man's wrist onto the wall of a higher building. Spidey quickly pulling himself away into the darkness of the light with a worried look under his mask, seems like this whole thing could get messy. But hey, maybe it won't ever come up.
"You too, spider man..." He said to himself...though he wouldn't necessarily ally himself with Spider man, he seems to be a reasonable man...but now that he know's Gunvolt is here...
"Gunvolt...I will be the one to finally kill you..." He mumbles to himself, Lola giving a bit of an worried expression internally in her thoughts, if robots even have thoughts that is...
"Copen-kun..." She said to herself as she hopes that they don't cross paths soon enough...
