Chapter 79: The Number Two Streamer (1/2)
Gemini stared at her hands; her vision blurry as she struggled to keep with her reality. She was finding it harder and harder to keep together, to keep her mind at bay. Holding her hair, she began aggressively whispering to herself trembling on the spot. ”Hold it together Aoi, no! Gemini. My name is Gemini Fujisaki. I am Gemini!”
”Seems like your mind is falling apart. Having both yours and your sister's powers is too much to handle.” Iris mocks standing a far distance from Gemini. ”Don't you think it's time to stop this?”
Gemini glanced at Iris through her craggy hair breathing heavily. ”I cannot stop. Only the worthy can stream. It can only be me. You are not worthy Iris Hawthorne!”
Casting an electrical blast at Iris, it was stopped by a portal as the attack came back harming Gemini. ”The Alice disagrees. The only unworthy streamer we see here is you P4R4D0X.”
”Shut up, shut up, shut up!” She roars, holding her head in pain. ”It's me. It always has been, no one else can do this. I will be the next generation of streamers. Never stopping, never dying. Always there to save the day. A perfect Paradox.”
”By killing other streamers? Working with an insane Cult and causing mayhem across Rhinefield. How is that the next generation?”
Gemini raised her head, looking to the sky. ”They don't understand Gemini. No one ever understands us, do they? It's always against the world. This messed up distorted world. Streamers don't care about what happens. If someone lives or die, but I do, I'll save them all; no one will have to feel the pain of their loved ones being stolen from them. I will judge the masses and disposes of all those who are not worthy. Can't you understand that?”
Iris spins the cube around her finger tutting. ”While I admit streamers aren't all good. Many of them are just in it for fame and fortune. I can't speak for heroes; we're in it for more or less the same reason. But who in the hell gave you the right to choose who lives and dies? No one should have that choice!”
”I didn't expect a feeble unworthy mind like yourself to understand. I'm going to save this world whether you like it or not.” She claims as serval electrical wires spread around her sparking like crazy. The security cameras and monitors all shut down, powering up Gemini. ”If making this world a better place means I build it on the corpses of the unworthy so be it. I Aoi Fujisaki will make our dream come true.”
Iris grits her teeth blinded by the sparks. ”She's lost her mind. She actually believes she's her dead sister. How messed up is that. We'll take her down here, Alice!” Iris jolted into motion fighting off P4R4D0X, Alice joined in only to stop at the last moment. Her father's voice echoed in her head to not fight. She felt conflicted but eventually let her father's orders take control. Iris has to be tested even if that means to the death.
Iris was propelled into the air by her cube as she began running mid-air using her cubes as stepping stones to avoid the electrified ground below. Making loops around P4R4D0X, she punched her fist forward as serval spears struck the villain. Each was propelled back by the wires protecting Gemini. Flipping over the counter, she bounced off the wall, continuing her stepping stone flurry. This was a battle of wits. Neither one of them could get close in the chance their attacks could end the battle in one hit. Both had to go through ranged attacks in hopes one of them would break. Although Iris had the clear advantage one wrong move and she would be fried by the electricity down below. Spinning around, she cast serval cubes which expanded keeping her out of sight. Gemini looked around blind to an upcoming attack. ”I must admit, your powers are awe-inspiring. Taking down Vanguard is no easy feat.” She smirked as the electrical wires connecting into the monitors giving away Iris' position. ”But unlike him, I won't go easy on the unworthy!”
