Right as Monty pulled the trigger on his mystic shotgun +5, Ranma bent his back and legs to limbo under the magic circles that appeared .2 seconds later to launch an ether blast. Ranma fell back towards the ground and propped himself up with his hand, then used his inhuman strength to push off against the ground and launch towards the giant redhead.
Crap, he‘s inside my guard, Monty thought as the dragon surrounded his arm with an iron defensive sell while another magic glyph for amplify appeared in front of his hand. With no other options that didn’t involve taking a beating, Monty pulled his arm back and twisted his wrist to parry the blow with his shotgun.
Then, the giant man adjusted his weight and threw a knee at the boy’s chest, which he absorbed with a cross-armed block, although thanks to Monty’s mass, the force of the attack knocked him more than ten feet away.
Monty threw away the ruined weapon and prepared to go against him hand to hand, but was interrupted from a shout nearby.
“WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?” D’Bra yelled at the large man in the tight spandex with the British flag. Then, she looked over to the Iron dragon and frowned. Thanks to her mother, D’Bra knew what her father looked like, the woman had shown a temporal scrying of him during the short time when he ruled the dragon brood.
While she had to admit that the ancient dragon across from her did have a resemblance to her supposed father -something she realized that she did have an inkling of when they first met- and was the right age…AND the right species…
Oh for crying out loud, D’Bra told herself as she pushed such ideas away. The images she had been showed of Dreadwing had been a horribly scarred Iron dragon, completely lacking lips and scales in certain places, with an aura that was just as damaged and far more malicious than anything else she had ever seen.
BUT…there was a definite resemblance. An impossible level of resemblance, she told herself. Now that she thought about it, even identical twins didn’t have such similar auras.
Monty ignored the princess’s question. Of course she doesn’t recognize him, the former dragon thought. In truth, he doubted any living dragon besides T’Mat and the man that was once Phyrogoth would. T’Mat had destroyed every record of her former lover that showed what he was like before she had ripped his body and aura apart in their duel.
But Phyrogoth did remember Dre’yas before he fell into madness, before he was scarred, and that was the dragon standing in front of him now.
“Oh come on, what the hell’d I ever do to you?” Ranma shouted at the crazy…American? Scotsman? Island that was next to England-man?
Monty didn’t answer the question. He just grit his teeth and charged.
As the larger man started coming at him, Ranma dashed towards him in turn. When Monty tried to grab him, he spun to the left to avoid the ham-sized hand, but frowned when Monty simply bent his arm in at the elbow for his forearm to come behind Ranma lock the much smaller guy in a hold. Then, he leaped into the air and twisted around until the two of them would land head first, then began spinning on his way down.
Or at least Ranma would, Monty had a hold of his neck with one hand, while the other continued to apply pressure to his lungs and hold the smaller man close. With the added discombobulating spin maneuver, there was no way the dragon could concentrate enough to properly cast spells. At the same time, Monty ducked his head to let the muscles on his shoulders take the impact.
“AND IT’S, IT’S-OH IT’S MONTY’S WHIRLING UPSIDE DOWN PILE DRIVER OF DOOM! I DON’T KNOW WHAT OUR NEWCOMMER DID TO MAKE THE CHAMPION ANGRY, BUT HE’S GOING TO HAVE A MUI GRANDE HEADACHE AFTER THIS!”
