Chapter Text
It was a Sunday afternoon in "Fortune", a city known for its inhabitants to follow a religion dedicated to a holy demon. Slushi was participating in the weekly mass but she seemed extremely bored, listening to rock and heavy metal through her headphones slung over her neck. Recently, Slushi received an injury to her right arm, breaking a few bones, while in reality, she was hiding a demonic arm that appeared one day.
Priest: Over 2000 years ago, the Dark Knight Kyra betrayed her demon brethren and took up her sword for the sake of our civilization. Despite the brave efforts in our name, I fear that some have forgotten the truth of her great sacrifice. If the events of that terrible time were to reoccur, the fusing of both demon, and our earthly realm, we, weak animals, would have no means by which to oppose our submission.
As Hawt Saus walked over and sat next to her, he could clearly notice Slushi's boredom. But he simply shrugs it off thinking she'll just listen to the mass anyways, even if she's still wearing those headphones.
Priest: And so I ask you to unite! And pray that even such a dark time of chaos were to revisit us, our gracious savior would shelter us from the storm. Let us pray!
As the crowd in the church held their hands together to pray, Slushi stood up and walked towards the exit, Hawt Saus asked her if there was anything wrong.
Hawt Saus: Yo Slushi, where you going? Something wrong?
Slushi: Ugh, all this preaching is putting me to sleep, isn't there anything more exciting around this place?
As she was walking away, her right glove started to form some sort of frostbite on it's tips. She saw a shadow coming from a window on the ceiling. Then all of a sudden, a window was smashed by an unknown assailant. As the assailant landed in front of the priest, a gunshot could be heard. As the priest dropped dead on the floor, Slushi realized what just happened. The priest was murdered and the holy guards responsible of protecting the priest weren't too happy about that fact.
As the guards charged toward the murderer, the unknown figure unsheathed their sword and quickly took care of whoever came in their attacking range, Slushi, being part of a demon hunting squad, quickly offered assistance against the assailant but was quickly cut off from other guards acting as reinforcements. Slushi told Hawt Saus to get out of the church but told him to call in the local security force. As the reinforcements were getting massacred from the assassin, she took out her phone and called a friend of hers to deliver a special package to assist her in battling this threat.
As the last guard was defeated, Slushi delivered a dropkick towards the assailant's face before pulling out her Deagle, the "IceBreaker". Both the assassin and Slushi were facing each other in a standoff, she could finally get a clear view of it's face. A familiar sight that she hasn't seen in years. She quickly realized that the murderer was her friend, Chikn Nuggit, Legendary Devil Hunter and descendant of the Dark Knight Kyra. As she was about to call out Chikn, Chikn unleashed a hailstorm of bullets, to avoid the gunshots, Slushi dived out of the way to take cover behind a pillar while muttering a mix of prayers and curse words under her breath. As the two kept firing bullets at each other, Slushi ran out of bullets, she reloaded her revolver and did some of the FANCIEST reloads with a single hand and popped out of her cover to face Chikn again, only for him to appear behind her. She noticed he had a sword on his back, but so far, he hasn't used it yet. As Slushi's "package" arrived from the ceiling, she opened the box and pulled out a heavily modified Chain-Sword dubbed the "White Death" and revved it up to empower its speed and power.
Slushi: C'mon Chikn! What's the point of carrying a sword if you're not going to use it?
Chikn, amused by her taunt, mocks her by imitating her revving up her sword.
As the two started to fight, Slushi was struggling to defend herself against Chikn's sword mastery skills and it resulted in her losing her sword by a guard break. As Chikn was about to deliver the final blow, Slushi put up her covered arm in an attempt to block the sword. Right as the sword touched her arm, her right arm started to glow and freeze the air around it, stopping any further damage dealt by Chikn. Impressed, Chikn said:
Chikn: Hmm... You got a trick up your sleeve
Slushi: And I thought the cat had your tongue. But if it's a trick you're looking for, then try this!
As Slushi used her frozen arm to fling Chikn away, Chikn quickly realized what was so special about that arm.
Chikn: Looks like you too are a-
But before Chikn could finish his sentence, Slushi picked up a piece of a broken pillar with her right arm, emitting some ghost-like arm, and threw it towards him. But Chikn simply stepped a bit to the side, missing him completely.
Slushi: I'd hate to interrupt you, but I'd like to wrap this up before the cavalry arrives.
As they started to clash again, Slushi used her frozen arm to deflect Chikn's attacks and grab him so she could slam him towards the ground. Recovering from the slam, Chikn stood back up and thrusted his sword towards Slushi, but Slushi grabbed his sword and threw his sword away before pinning him to the ground and repeatedly punching him in the face. While Chikn was being punched, some demonic force inside him reawakened but Chikn couldn't trigger it. Right as Slushi threw him towards the wall, she picked up his sword and planted it into Chikn's chest, finishing him off. As Slushi walked away feeling accomplished, she hear Chikn's voice behind her.
Chikn: You're getting better, I would even go as far...
Chikn pulled himself off the wall, extracting his sword implanted into his chest at the same time.
Chikn: As to say I underestimated your...
And then he finally removed his whole sword from his chest, releasing him from the wall.
Chikn: Abilities.
Slushi, surprised and scared at the same time, questioned Chikn about his supernatural healing abilities.
Slushi: You're not even normal, are you?
Chikn: We're the same, you and I.
As Chikn looked towards the other corpses, he added: "Them too."
As Slushi glared towards the burnt corpses, she realized that their bodies have already started to decompose.
Chikn: Although I suspect you're different from the others I guess.
Slushi: The hell are you talking about?
Chikn: Business beckons, I gotta go now. Adios kid!
As Chikn left the church, reinforcing guards and police officers came but they were too late to stop Chikn. Only thing left to do for them is to clean up the place. Slushi on the other hand, now has the think about that just happened, and about that frozen arm of hers... The "Ice Bringer". What's so special about it, why her?
