The Knight’s sword sliced through the air, it hit the soft surface of the skin as it began to reveal blood, tore through no deeper then a thumb is wide, as it dissolved, its stable liquid shards littered the ash covered ground. The knight’s traced a line across the blade as his eyes found their way backup towards Uzi. He, looked wrong. His body changed, purple bruise like marks formed like pokadots. The arrows hit the floor with a small plop as their tips dissolved where it once pierced skin. Uzi fell onto his legs, almost tripping on the ash as his head awkwardly raised to meet the knight. The purple splats seemed to almost glow on occasion, his eyes changed, the red center slowly grew three times the size, like a heart on Christmas, only happening in the left eye as the other stayed stationary. Ash filled the air as the silence broke, the knight swung the blade with all the strength he could muster. “Why…what’s wrong with..” Uzi began as he shot his hand foreword, grabbing the blade before it get any momentum, the blade sizzled away from the purple bruise on his palm. “My vision, its weird” Uzi wondered as his other hand wound up, and socked the knight, his fist melted a section of the helmet like it was a simple ice cube, it dissolved part of the gas face as Uzi raised his leg, and kicked the knight in the chest, the knight was sent flying back into a tree. His foot cracked with a pop Uzi fell into pain, or he thought he would. He knew he’d broken a bone, yet he could not fucus on any of it. Suddenly, two arrows tore into his neck, they dissolved before they could go any deep. Uzi placed a hand on his neck as blood flowed down like a chocolate fountain. “Why, can’t i feel this.” Uzi’s body was filled with poison, but it was forcibly fused with holy magic, the combination turned his body into the arch nemesis to these knights. Just touching his body melts poison, it was the perfect uno reverse. A side effect seemed to be temporary killing off his nerves. Uzi couldn't figure out what happening to his eyes. It was like his left eye was seeing a little bit further in time than his fight, no more then half a second, it would take a long time to get used to it if it was nonreversible. His other senses have seem to be dulled. “Hey, what the hell are you.” The knight asked as he got up from his fall. He wiped the dust off. He signaled for the archers to prepare to fire again. “I don’t know what’s happened to you, but your not helpless anymore. What’s with your left eye. Its weird.” “What…are you t-talking about?” Uzi asked while stumbling in place a little, like a drunk man not capable of staying still. “My hearing has gotten worse it seems.” Suddenly, the bushes rustled as footsteps filled the area, so loud even Uzi could hear it in his state, the rest of the swords and bows filed in, until Uzi was surrounded by over twenty five poison soldiers. Uzi stood their, the poison spreading further through his body, to Uzi, the tiredness seemed to grow from within, he knew he didn’t have much time left. “Well, well, well. I don’t know why you look like that, but I don’t care. Its your death day.” The vice general spoke as he jumped down from a tree branch, his gold sword handle sparkling in contrast against the gray ash as his poison boots burned the floor on landing of its ash. “So tell me, how should you die?” “I've be-been thinking, I’m no lon-longer a god. I’m really not, but does tha-that matter? It doesn’t matter at al-all. I ne-need to prove I can ba-be again.” Uzi spit out a little blood as his stance seemed to drop, like he couldn’t hold himself up as high anymore. “What are you talking about, if your a god, I’m the master of the fucking universe.” the vice joked as he raised his hand, a signal as every knight drew their blade, and every archer aimed a shot, preparing for a execution, no longer a murder. Suddenly, a light raised over the tree line towards the direction of the camp, the light turned a crimson red, as the loud BANG
