Warria's Trials #2
By Peter Malone
Demonic Lessons

It had been about three weeks since Warria made her public debute as she 
fought off the robotic horde created by Dr. Cyberdeath. The
Gentix Lab that had created her told her to keep her true origins a secrate 
from the public since they realized the potential dangers if it should leak 
out that it was possible to create human life much less a superbeing. The 
secrate of her origin was to be kept by her creators and the higher ups of 
Total Science Global.

As Shelly Samus warria had kept from the roving eyes of the reporters.  
Warria had not had a challange pop up to bring her out into the open again. 
Warria did pratic using her abilities in the Gentix Lab's training room and 
with the help of Lance Cutter a computer technician who had also praticed a 
lot of martial arts and had earned a great many belts including four black 
belts one for Karate, one for Ninjitsu,  One for Juditsu, and One for 
Bushido, he had read and praticed several other martial arts too, and had 
Won  his all-state final in wrestling in high-school.

Lance taught Warria a lot and though she realized that she had some 
abilities that made her a better fighter she also knew that some of these 
abilties could be thrown back at her. Lance had encouraged her to use her 
abilities to make odds go in her favor realizing that though this might be a 
little unethical he also realized that the villians wouldn't play by ethical 
standards.  Lance and Warria had at times doned Virtual Simmulation gear to 
go one on one in the computer world were Warria still had her same abilities 
yet Lance at times would upgrade himself from a normal human (with excelent 
fighting capabilites) to a super human to even the odds. Warria had still 
come out a head in most of these battles using her skills to out manouver 
Lance.

Shelly had been hitting the mall a few times the repair crews had done a 
great job of fixing it up. She had also visited the city's park which was 
right near the center of the city. Shelly heard an alarm go off in her head 
it seemed only she could hear it though, so she detirmined it had to be a 
silent alarm from one of the facilities near by.

In an instant she saw three streaks go accross the sky and was able to focus 
in on the end of these streaks she saw two humanoid figures she quickly 
focused on their trail and followed it back to a jewelry store. She knew 
that these two were villians and though she was out in the open she was able 
to find a place to change. Warria speed after the three super criminals and 
shouted out for them to hear.

"Okay you three are not going to get off that easily" Said Warria 
confidently.  The three criminals stopped and turned to face Warria, who was 
a bit taken aback by the appearance of her new rivials.

"I don't think you can grasp the scope of who your dealing with" Said a 
female with red hair black demon horns green eyes a vampire fanged mouth red 
skin with an orange (gator skinned like) patch around the belly two yellow 
spikes on her shoulders and yellow fins near her wrists, white skull faces 
on her black bikini top and a Satanic star on the black bikini bottom and 
two wings that were black as night on back and blood red on the front and 
spikes near her knees and a devil like tail.  "I'm Demonica a 3rd rank Demon 
which is a high rank among our world.  These two are my Skull Gaurd two of 
the toughest Demon warriors and my son-in-laws, as they have earned the 
right to marry my daughters"Demonica explained.

The Skull Gaurd had Skull like heads and dark purple like hulkering bodies 
four lobster clawed hands and had two sets of wings to support them in the 
air and anklyosaurus like tails. Both of them had bags of jewelry tied to 
their backs, yet these bags wouldn't hinder their fighting abilities. They 
were definately the grunts of the demon world though all muscle, and not 
much intelligence.

"Well then Demonica let me introduce myself I'm Warria one of the protectors 
of this city and those Jewels are city property so hand them over" She said 
trying to intimidate her opponent hoping to psyce out her opponents.

"Technicaly all of these stones  are Demon property. The stones in these 
bags are Demon gems which are only found in demon layers, these gems are 
able to help focus magic or to help us increase our powers I'm taking these 
for my daughters"  explained Demonica.

" Well if what your saying is true than I guess your daughters' pressents 
won't be delivered" said Warria in a heroic voice.

"Then I have no choice Skull Gaurd's attack" commanded Demonica with a 
thunderous voice. The two demon warriors flew at Warria who charged at them 
at the same time and used her energy blast fists to send them reeling back 
as she let out two shocking blasts that connected with the demons' skull 
faces.

The Skull Guard though were tough and had a few tricks of their own. They 
used their wings and were able to fly faster than Warria could track. They 
flew above her and came down on her from above and dove down slamming her 
into the roof of the Pleasure Hotela complex. Demonica had followed them 
down, to get a better veiw.

Warria was able to grab one of each of the Skull Guards' wrists and spun 
herself around like a top making the Skull Guard dizzy and threw them both 
right towards their boss all of them ended up in a heap. Demonica brushed 
her skull guard out of the way and let loose with a black colored fire ball 
right from her hands that Warria tried to blow out with her breath yet it 
kept comming yet Warria ducked it as it went past her and completely melted 
the broadcast antena of the Radio station two buildings to the side of the 
hotel.

"Now that was pure Hell fire. Few control it none can extinquish it and most 
will be consumed by it " said Demonica as if reciting a lyric to a song. 
Warria though saw the serriousness of the situation, as the two Skull Gaurds 
got to their feet ready for round two. Warria realized that in order to 
defeet these three her best bet was to entrap the Skull Gaurds long enough 
so that Demonica would be forced to face her on her own.

The Skull Gaurds eyes blazed green as they both closed in around Warria. 
Warria though did a handstand flip into another handstand and in mid flip 
retracted her claws slashing both the Skull Gaurds' down the chest and then 
she repeated the manouver doing a reverse handstand and then fliped away to 
admire her handy work. The Skull Guards were wounded yet the wounds healed 
up fast and the cuts weren't even visible after a minute.  Warria was 
shocked by this turn of events yet a voice from behind her.

"Haha if you had a magical sword that may have worked yet we are a bit more 
resilite to normal cutting attacks than most, We Demons also have a higher 
threashold of pain, and the higher ranked Demons and Devils see to it that 
being beaten is part of the pain endurance training. It may seem harsh to 
most, but it produces amazing results" said the sadistic Demonica whose 
thoughts flickered back to her own pain endurance training at the hands of 
some of the higher ranked Demonesses.

Warria though did not let up. Warria came at the two Skull Gaurds again this 
time she flew right towards them hoping to take them with her yet they 
ducked and got their upper lobster clawed hands on her pinching the wrists 
and shoulders on both her sides. Warria realized that they could cut her 
arms off, yet she threw her shoulders back instantly and then claping her 
shoulders to the front position smashed the two Skull Guard together under 
her.   Warria then flew up and let loose with a double blast from both her 
eyes and her wrists that envoloped the two Gaurds' totaly.

The Skull Guards had wrapped their wings around themselves and were able to 
withstand the attack with only a few burns to their wings. Warria was a bit 
shocked by this as her best attacks didn't seem to phase these Demons.  She 
realized that wounding them would be almost imposible, yet that didn't mean 
she couldn't knock them out.

"Ha the skin and wings of my Skull Gaurds are coated with flex of bones of 
their victims and some of the toughest mettle around and the wings are heat 
resistant for the most part" Said Demonica who delighted in reveiling the 
defensive powers of the demons at her command.

The Skull Guard had flown up to her Warria backed up looking for a good 
battle ground that would help her she realized that the junk yard she faught 
those robot's in before was advantagous to her once, it was still a little 
ways out of town she would have to make sure the Skull Guards followed her.

Warria then flew towards the Skull Guard demons at full speed and ripped the 
sacks of gems off of the two warriors and then came out in front of them and 
held the bags up mockingly and jetted to the junkyard. As predicted the 
Skull Guards followed as did Demonica herself.
Warria set down the bags and was able to hurl an old wrecked car skyward 
hoping to catch the two Skull Gaurd with. The Skull Gaurds  dodged it both 
as it was coming at them and as it was hurtling back down.

The Skull Guard landed about a foot away and then both of them took a big 
swallow and let loose with a fiery blast that was scorcingly hot, Warria 
spun herself like a top producing a tornado like force feild around her that 
diverted the flames. The two Skull Guards took this time though to take 
flight and charge Warria so that when she stopped spinning they were able to 
knock her into a pile of trash that collapsed all around her.

The mountain of trash exploded minutes later as Warria freed herself, she 
had a mettle like hooler hoop sized ring in her hand and threw it like a 
frizbee disc at the Skull Gaurd hoping to entrape one of them within it.  
One of the Skull Guard though raised his clawed hand and grabbed it and then 
with his other claw grabbed the other side and pulled it apart letting the 
two halves fall to the ground. Warria had used this opportunity to use her 
laser beams which caught the Skull Guards squar and since their wings were 
busy keeping them suspended in air they were knocked back by the force of 
the beams.

Warria positioned the Skull Guard for her next attack she spun her arms 
around creating two mini twisters that she was able to dirrect to pick up 
some of the rubbish around her and then encircle the two Skull Guards 
pelting them with debree from every angle. The Skull Guard tryed to protect 
themselves using their four lobster claw ended arms to fend of most of the 
trash this cyclone attack was throwing at them, yet they couldn't fend off 
everything that was comming at them and were knocked out.  The Skull Guards 
fell, Warria knew they wouldn't stay knocked out for long so she had found 
some rubber mostly old tires and flung it at them, yet while still in the 
air she melted the rubber. The liquidized rubber fell on the Skull Guards 
entraping them, Demonica was still free though.

"Well looks like your Gaurd's are trapped so I guess it's down to you and me 
now Demonica" said Warria confidently.

"So you mannaged to get by them, I'm a higher ranking demon and much more of 
a threat than those two combined" said Demonica with a wicked smile. 
Demonica who was still flying then  let loose with another Hell Fire attack 
yet Warria dodged it again as she took off and came at Demonica.

Demonica flew toward Warria and was able to get in a fast uppercut to 
Warria's chin sending her reeling. Warria though got up some speed and came 
down on Demonica and drove her down landing in a pile of rubish that fell in 
on both of them.  Demonica and Warria both powered out of the rubbish.

Warria was able to get in three rapid fire jabs right to Demonica's 
midsection then deliver an uppercut to the chin that sent Demonica reeling 
as she fell into some trash that had a sharp mettle shard sticking out that 
peirced her back a bit. Demonica shot up from the pain, though it was short 
lived since her wound healed instantly.

Demonica blew a firebreath at Warria who stood her ground countering with a 
wind breath of her own Warria's blew back Demonica's fire and was able to 
topple Demonica. Demonica got up again, and let fly with some darts from the 
fins around her wrists Warria realizing that these might be poisoned desided 
to melt them with her laser beam eyes.  Warria then did a few flips and got 
Demonica's head between her legs and performed a flip and released Demonica 
on impact then flew up and came down with two fists to Demonica's belly.

Demonica though was able to get up, she picked up and threw a busted 
computer at Warria who used her hand beams to blow it up before it reached 
her Warria then flew at Demonica who was ready this time. Demonica flew up 
and dodged Warria's attack, yet Warria spun around and came at her opponent 
with a spinning attack with her claws extended.

Demonica flew right toward a trash pile then over hoping that Warria 
wouldn't be able to do the same. Warria stopped though and flew on top of 
the trash heap and then picked up and flung a rubber hose out towards 
Demonica and whipped her in the back.  Warria then found a hubcap and was 
able to use her eye beams to make it look like the blade of a buzz saw she 
whipped this at Demonica and cut one of her horns in half.

Demonica was enraged by this, even though demon's horns do grow back it 
takes two to three months and Demonica like most demons do takes pride in 
her horns. The horns of every demon/devil family are diffrent from one 
another they are the telltale mark of what clan one demon/devil belongs to.

Demonica let loose with a flurry of Hell Fire balls yet Warria was able to 
dodge them and get in close with a led pipe to Demonica's belly that had her 
double over in pain. Demonica was able to lash out and smash Warria in the 
stomach and then got a grip on her foe and was able to use a cyclone spin 
and threw her opponent about a mile away.

Demonica realized that she was wasting time she had been fighting with this 
heroic warrior for to long when all the time the gems had been their for the 
taking.  Demonica swooped down to where Warria had put the Gem sacks and 
opened one and grabbed up one of the demon gems in her hand and focused it's 
energies towards the charging Warria who was knocked out of the sky by the 
blow.

Demonica then  blasted free her Skull Guard from the melted rubber, they 
roared as they tore free. Demonica though was in a bit of pain and realized 
that Warria could pose a threat and opted to take the loot and go. Warria 
though seeing this knew she had to act fast to save the gems.

Warria threw an old junked car at the Skull Guard who were still a bit 
groggy from trying to fight out of the liquid rubber and were flattend by 
the car. Warria then flew at Demonica with a car hood in her hands and 
wrapped it around Demonica and got the gems from her she then weilded the 
hood around Demonica.

The Skull Guard had lifted the car off themselves and were perpaired to 
continue the fight however. Warria wanted to end this as the battle had 
taken it's effects on her. Warria saw a weird wrist gauntlet in one of the 
junk piles she flew over to it and was surpized to finf she reconized it as 
the wrist gauntlet of Gadgeta a woman who has used many high tech gadgets to 
fight crime and who's exploties had made the news at times.

Warria knew that the gauntlet launched a big claw and rope, yet didn't know 
whic button to push. The two Skull Guards though didn't give her much time 
to guess as they came right at her. Warria pushed the blue button first 
which sprayed some blue spray mist like substance at the monsters faces the 
Skull Guard threw their heads back and were knocked out of the sky. Warria 
then punched the cable release button and fired it capturing the two Skull 
Gaurds right around the chest area.  Warria though knew that they could 
break this since their clawwed hands were free so she broke the cord that 
the glove spat out into two and tied the four arms of each Skull Guard 
behind their backs.  Warria then picked them up and set them beside the 
wrapped up Demonica and the gem bags she then got a rope that tied all the 
Demons prisons together and with the gems she flew to the local police 
office.

Warria put both the gems and the Demonic trio into police custody though the 
local athorities would have to call in the Ultra Task force to haul these 
dangerous beings off to a maximum security facility where they would share 
the company of other super powered villians they were happy to have a 
defender such as Warria on their side.  Warria departed after filling out 
the required paper work and flew off back to Gentix Labs.
