006 - There Can Be Only One

[mercwamouth]

[Hey! It's Deadpool! Looks like he's been quite busy; he's got a good deal of blood on him. Don't worry, it's not his. How can you tell? It's all green. He's in pretty good shape otherwise. Commence the inner dialogue!]

[Well, aside from that one minor setback, I'd say a job well done.]

[Must be an early Christmas miracle.]

Well, that would explain the red and green.

[Gross. I'm surprised we actually killed him.]

[Yeah, I thought we didn't really kill all that much anymore?]

[Y'know, for morals an' junk.]

I'm usually willing to make an exception for people who screw me over more than the average bad guy. This guy had it comin'. Plus it was for the good of mankind. Can't have that guy tryin' to clone any other Regeneratin' Degenerates.

[...Don't believe your own publicity.]

Who are you? [She's starting to think you're Fire Nation, Deadpool. The costume doesn't help. :|]

[mercwamouth]

Wouldn't you like to know?

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Draws the water from her pouch into its characteristic protective half-circle at her back.] I'll ask you one more time.

[mercwamouth]

You will, will you?

[sifud.livejournal.com]

Who are you.

[mercwamouth]

Questions usually end in question marks, little lady.

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Sweeps the water around herself and lances it toward his feet.]

[mercwamouth]

[Leaps in the air to avoid it and then draws a sword]

What? Not my fault you can't use punctuation properly.

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[A flick of her wrists and the water goes rocketing into the air after him.]

[mercwamouth]

[Deadpool hits the water with his sword to shift his momentum to the left, dodging the water and tumbling onto the ground.]

[And Deadpool bursts into song]

Sail on, Silvergirl.

[Sail ooon, Silveeergiiirl]

Sail on byyyyy...

[Deadpool drops a grenade of some kind]

[Sail oon byyyy...]

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Doesn't know what that thing is, but doesn't trust it, either. She slams her water down on top of it and freezes the liquid straight through.

[mercwamouth]

You're tiime has cooome to shiiine...

[While Katara is focused on freezing the grenade, Deadpool leaps into the air and draws his Uzi.]

...all your dreams are on their wayyy...

[Fires at the frozen grenade until the ice chips away and the grenade goes off... it's a FLASH grenade! Quite blinding.]

SEE HOOW THEY SHIIINE, oh if you ever neeeed a friend...

[Deadpool then uses the distracting to get out of Katara's field of vision]

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Closes her eyes and sweeps the water around her in a thin, protective bubble that leaves about three feet all around.]

[mercwamouth]

Bodyslide by one.

[Without breaking the barrier, Deadpool appears at Katara's back, holding the sword to her throat]

I 'porrrted riiiight beeeehiiiind! Through your spheeere of untroublllled waterrr, when I made you blind!

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Slams back against him, giving herself just enough room to drop her head from between him and the blade and slip into a quick circular rotation, winding her water up once again and slamming it at an angle up toward his chest and head.]

[mercwamouth]

[Deadpool reflexively dodges and rolls to his right, simultaneously dropping some kind of device and throwing his sword at Katara]

Catch!

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Slaps the sword aside with a ribbon of water and brings the liquid back up into a shield between herself and whatever Deadpool dropped, simultaneously calling another flood from the beach. It'll take a moment to get there, though.]

[mercwamouth]

[Deadpool disappears for a second and then with a flicker, reappears next to his sword.]

Here, let's talk it out. You go first. What do you want?

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Still tensed, keeping a wary eye on that... thing he dropped] What is that? [She jerks her chin at it]

[mercwamouth]

...Mmhmm?

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[And here's the rushing sound of approaching water.]

You have about ten seconds to tell me.

[mercwamouth]

...Right. That's a very compelling argument.

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[And the water arrives, roaring in a circle around her and then closing in. With a sweep of her arms it carries her up on top of a serpentine column.]

[mercwamouth]

[How peculiar. Deadpool doesn't appear to be getting wet at all. Water just seems to... pass right through him?]

Well, I guess I've bought enough time.

COWABUNGA!

[That last one didn't come from Deadpool. Or it did, just not the Deadpool that's been talking since Katara started summoning that water. That Deadpool flickers away. The current/real Deadpool is riding the column of water on a surfboard right behind Katara and moving in for a grapple.]

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Swipes one hand and the water under him splits, leaving nothing but empty space below him.]
