the Phights weren’t really that much of a problem nor a annoying little game for Coil. Even so, Coil love the feeling of adrenaline and the rush of excitement course through his veins when it comes to phighting.
To put it simply, Coil like the game ‘Phight!’.
. . . Until, A very familiar and red-horned inphernal comes butting in his personal space.
Skateboard.
Coil didn’t give a damn towards the other inphernal. Skateboard doesn’t bugged him that much. More so, it was the other way around since the Hellhound have a knack of creating or relishing the reaction of other inphernals at his glorious ragebait.
Skateboard was unfortunately one of the poor victims that Coil LOVES to torment. Which Coil was already planning on how to absolutely aggravate the Skater. As he cracked his knuckles, waiting for the round to start.
---------------
Meanwhile,
Skateboard was looking at Coil from a distance, already seeing the familiar glint of mischief and arrogant creeping up to him, as Skateboard already and mentally prepared himself for what’s come next.
“ What if. . “
Skateboard thought for a minute, clicking his tongue as he remembered as much as Coil likes to bugged other inphernals. He, himself. Is also prone to be easily ragebaited aswell. Skateboard bored and almost mindless thinking expression snapped into a Wickedness look.
“ Time to ragebait the ragebaiter. “
Skateboard thought proudly as the time ticked to a stopped. Cutting it off to sheer darkness, until. . The map was turned into the Craterdust. Which was a huge advantage towards Skateboard and Coil. Since the two practically live in this region, while the other Phighters pay no attention and only sparing their concentration towards the money and the kills.
Speaking of the two, both were on opposite teams, meaning they are going to phight eachother, Skateboard was thrilled at the arrangement while Coil couldn’t care less other than completely rubbing it on Skateboard’s if his team will win the round.
. . . Ding !
The timer dropped as Skateboard dive in first, of course he always do. As he stride his way onto the enemy’s spawn. Already trying to get the first kill, But immediately backed away when Hyperlaser tried to shoot him.
‘ ‘ Phuck, forgot the dude is here aswell. ‘ ‘
Skateboard skidded to a stop as he wait for his shield to crept back to full health as he decided to play it cool or go with the flow for a while, putting the Skateboard on both his feet and dash towards where his other teammates were phighting .
And getting slightly demolished by the support, Yet the other teammates persist as they were phighting back, Skateboard butted or skateboard into the crowd. He instantly noticed Coil backing up and on low HP, using his regen to get his health back, as Skateboard immediately found his next target.
---------------
“ Shit, maybe I should’ve not tried to provoke the warden. “
Coil muttered, almost getting beaten up by Ban hammer on the other team as he switch his mode to regen. Spotting his own teammates needing in critical need, he connected his regen towards him. Seeing slight small ping of a ‘thank you’ as Coil smirked to himself.
“ heh, this Team would have been slimed if it wasn’t for me around. “
Coil arrogantly thought as he relish that sweet little information that is definitely his delusions—As he continue to back off, not wanting the other opponent gets the first kill, SFOTH. When will the first kill be announced ?—
“ Heya Hellhound ! “
A voice cracked onto the silence, and even before Coil could turn around, his face immediately was met by a phucking skateboard. Feeling the object wacked his poor face, paralyzing him. Which was a bad, BAD. Thing For his health was now at the risk of getting one tap.
As he noticed the Skater infront of him smiling like he did something he was proud of, taking his sweet time as Coil thought Skateboard would spare him.
“ Pft, Aren’t ya’ gonna kill me, Skate ? “
Coil question, as he bought his time to try and get his attack working on until, Skateboard immediately rammed into him. Making Coil once again one tap, cursing under his breath as he felt the Skateboard gear hit him in his head.
“ You’re impatient today, What’s wrong ? Seeing your team lose ? “
Skateboard spoke during Coil’ last moment till he got respawn, that. That kinda ticked Coil’s mood off, instantly making his attitude sour. From him getting first to be killed and letting his guard down around that skater.
Coil scoffed as he still felt the Skateboard absolutely smacking him in the head, yeesh. . That actually hurt than a bit. As Coil found his new target for the round, Skateboard. Not because he was a bit petty. . Nooooo, the two usually target eachother for rounds. . That’s the reason, for Coil’s denial that is.
But for some reason, Skateboard seems to hide away from Coil, seemingly attacking him out of nowhere once his health dropped or one tap away. Seriously, is Skateboard out for vengeance for all the times Coil targetted him ?. .
Coil snapped of his thoughts as he decided to stick on his group more, he already died. And he’s not going to be killed, Twice. Today, since his arrogant ass have been humbled by a very ‘modest’ skater from the other team.
The round have gotten more intense as the killcount on each teams seems to creep up and up. Skateboard’s team having the highest kills in current time, as Coil was already getting moody by the thought of his team actually loosing.
Coil immediately use his regen on a almost dying hyper as he got his kill on Shuriken from the other opponent. That kinda make his mood a bit lighter, but not that much. He wanted to get his kill on Skateboard.
Skateboard was not doing so good. His ‘go with the flow’ style immediately make him on the brick of death as he let Vinestaff heal him, he noticed the other teammates trying to get closer. As he look at his phinisher.
“ Thanks Vine ! “
Skateboard thanked the pink-horned inphernal as he made his way onto the hotspot where the two teams where currently mauling eachother to death, as he immediately uses his phinisher.
“ Watch this trick ! “
Skateboard spoke up loudly as he did paralyzed quite a few phighters, one of them was the good ol’ Hellhound. Which, Skateboard immediately dashed towards the stunned inphernal, using his skateboard to stunned him even more and getting the final blow by ramming into Coil. Earning Skateboard another sweet kill and Coil another bitter Death.
Skateboard could have killed Hyperlaser who was on a brick of death, and Medkit who was also one tapped away with his phinisher ready. But no, Skateboard decided he will be concentrated on the Hellhound.
“ Sorry not sorry. “
Skateboard spoke shrugging near Coil’s dead body as he sauntered over to his other teammates to help, skating onto chaos once more and leaving a now clearly ticked off Coil, who probably by now. Realized Skateboard is trying to ragebait the absolute shit out of him by targetting him and making some comments when he got killed by him.
“ Whatever, I’m just warming up. “
Coil scoffed to himself as he made his way back to the chaos, trying to help his teammates while still trying to get a good way to make Skateboard pay for making him die, TWICE. As Skateboard was already feeling like he have done the most satisfying thing in the world, seeing the one ragebaiting him getting ragebaited instead. A glamorous thing to see in Skateboard perspective.
Before Skateboard could even relished the little victory of ticking off the Hellhound, he a surge of coldness around the area, as he look towards where Coil was standing there as he was about to turn his phinisher on.
And much to his dismay, he did.
“ Now you really pissed me off ! “
Coil voice crackled as the crystal immediately surged towards half of his face, lapping it up by spiky crystals. As Skateboard didn’t have time until Coil immediately grabbing him and bodyslamming the poor skater to the rough cement floor.
“ Payback time. “
Coil murmured as he was about to use his ability to finally getting his kill to Skateboard, until. . Vinestaff crashed in, using her own abilities to paralyzed Coil for a second which make Skateboard have time to scurry away.
“ You almost had me there, Coil. Glad your hands reaction was too slow or ya’ brain was too empty. “
Skateboard spoke as he smirked at the now frustrated Coil, as he made his time to Skateboard away as Coil screamed back at him, the Crystals growing more sharper at his visible frustration.
“ Keep talking, Skate. Next round I’ll crush your ego. “
Coil murmured as the crystal crept back into his horn, his left eye already leaking tears a bit as Coil wipe it off away. It was always a little side effect when it comes to fusion mode, he didn’t even use that much. Why the hell is it tearing up, Coil shrugged it off.
----------
The next few seconds, Skateboard was tormenting Coil left and right. Practically trying to get a reaction out of him. Like how Coil usually do with the others. Now he’s getting his own taste of medicine, Skateboard continue to torment him by Skating near around him, enough to make him a bit distracted and his usual performance sloppy. Hitting and paralyzing Coil once he tried to back out of on low health, killing from time to time.
This have go on for hours until Skateboard team have win !
“ Are you serious right now. “
Coil muttered under his breath, as he shoved his hands onto his orange hoodie pocket. His face turned into a scowl when he realized he had gotten SVP, while Skateboard got the MVP. As Skateboard sauntered over him to practically rubbed it off on his face.
“ Yooo, Dude ! Look I got MVP ! “
Skateboard spoke casually, but he was practically trying to get a reaction off of the Hellhound, As Coil tsked and just shrugged. Their cocky smirk creeping up.
“ yeah yeah, it’s your lucky day. Don’t get used to it. “
Coil mumbled, As Skateboard just chuckled—Trying to find more ways on how to get another reaction towards Coil, even if it is met by Coil strangling him.
“ Ya ? whatever keeps your poor ego alive, but genuinely your really not that bothered when you lose, or is your pettiness creeping up again ? “
Skateboard spoke casually like he didn’t just called Coil ‘petty’ as Coil look at Skateboard like he is calculating on how to use his ult by next round and probably target him for the entire round.
“ You done ? Because you talk too comfortable, Skate. “
“ Nah, it’s funny. You always act more petty and more annoying when I win, it’s almost cute seeing you like that. “
. . .
“ What. “
Coil spoke his head snapping towards Skateboard, who was confused for a sec. . Looking at Coil akward expression and a bit more underneath it. As Skateboard just look at him up and down.
“ Whad’ya mean ‘What’ ? I said what I said, did the phight actually phucked up your understanding aswell ? ? “
“ You said I look cute. Skate, Cute. “
Coil pointed out as Skateboard immediately realized his mistake as he quickly look around ANYWHERE but Coil, Skateboard whistling like it could solve world hunger and the emberassment for saying the MOST CORNIEST SHIT HE HAD EVER SAID.
“ Nah, I Said you look Stupid . “
Skateboard side tracked as Coil raised and eyebrow.
“ I heard Cute, Dawg. I don’t have a hearing of a elder inphernal who needs hearing aids. “
“ You definitely do because you thought I called you cute. “
“ No I don’t. “
“ Yes you do. “
“ Nuh uh. “
“ Yuh huh. “
“ Nuh uh. “
“ Yuh huh. “
“ Skate, did you try to flirt me. “
Coil asked so bluntly as Skateboard almost choked on his own saliva, as he look at Coil who was genuinely curios and deadpanned as Skateboard look at him with the same deadpanned look towards the other inphernal.
“ What, do you want me to ? “
“ You’re avoidin’ the topic. “
“ No I am not. “
“ Yes you are. “
“ No. “
“ Yes. “
“ No. “
“ Yes. “
Skateboard knowing this situation is futile and he have to face the consequences of saying shit before he realized how wrong it sounded or how the other inphernals get the wrong idea. So, he decided to ignore it.
“ My legs are KILLLLIIIIIINNNNNGGGGG ME ! Maybe I should not joined the next round. “
Skateboard loudly complained as Coil was a bit startled by the sudden switch up as he almost spoke until Skateboard cut him off.
“ SEE YA , COIL ! “
Skateboard spoke up as he immediately disappeared through the lobby after interacting with Zuka, while Zuka look at Coil with a raised eyebrow as Coil shrugged defensively.
“ Hey, I don’t know what’s going on that idiots mind ? “
Coil said defensively, putting his hands up like they are emphasizing he doesn’t know why as he shoved it back onto his hoodie pocket, Coil just sighed.
“ Skate has one of the most cringiest lines known to inpherno. “
