V.I.R.A.L

Emil collapsed from inside the wall of a frozen stadium shivering looking around lost. "What the hell just happened?" As he stepped forward, he fell to his knees, struggling, feeling much weaker. "We were just on an island… This must be the work of EOR. I need to make sure everyone else is alright."

Emil pulled himself up, seeing the digital gas-consuming the area. Pulling out his mask, which was an essential gas mask for use when making graffiti, he firmly placed it on safe from the illusions. Ready to find the others out of nowhere, Emil was kicked to the ground as he held his arms up breaking his fall. Turning, he saw another streamer staring down at him, cracking his knuckles. "Emil Montague… I've been searching for you."

"Seriously man I know this is a Battle Royale and all but could you keep that trigger finger under control. We have bigger issues than a mere fight."

"This is more than a mere fight. I am here to seek my revenge."

Emil scoffed standing up, making sure his mask was still secure. "Oh yeah? Who the hell are you then?"

"Who I was doesn't matter anymore. You and the scum with Team Rhapsody made sure of that. You may see me as Killer Queen, and now with my plan into motion, I will have my revenge against Rhapsody."

"Just typical isn't it… The crap I have to put up with… Alright noob, I'll bite. You want a fight I'll give you a fight." Emil threatened to hold both hands out, falling back. "Try to keep up." Collapsing into the ground Killer Queen didn't react, moving his eyes around watching. Emil popped out behind him, readying his attack. Killer Queen smirked stepping out the way dodging the attack. Startled Emil tripped up stumbling forward. Killer Queen ran past punching Emil in the stomach, making him gag falling to his knees winded. "Wh- What the hell?"

"I won't falter to such pathetic attacks like that Emil. I am so much more. I'll show you just how powerful I really am."

"We'll see about that dude." Emil threw backflipping back, falling into the floor. Serval items were flung out floating in the air as Emil eventually followed kicking each bit of rubble back down towards Killer Queen. He blocked each bit of debris before Emil burst down himself. Killer Queen stepped back, kicking up matching Emil's attack. Both were knocked back by the streamer got up quicker, throwing serval small knives at Emil. Serval stabbed him as he was forced to push back. Emil was left looking paranoid. Not only was he already too weak due to the ice but now he was backed into a corner with Killer Queen somehow knowing exactly what he was going to do.

"What's wrong. Don't tell me you're done already? I thought the Montagues were meant to be tougher than this. Clearly, you are nothing more than an imposter."

"Imposter…" Emil muttered before taking another hit to the face crashing into the wall. Killer Queen kept the attack landing another punch. The third hit Emil managed to dodge, making him hit the wall. Striking back Killer Queen held his arm up blocking the attack throwing Emil over his shoulder onto the floor. Pinning him down he began laying punches after punches with Emil struggling to hold on. Sinking into the ground slowly he propelled up like a spring knocking him off and sending Killer Queen flying. Landing back on his feet, he began feeling dizzy. This was when he quickly noticed a part of his mask was broken, allowing gas to flood in. Stumbling around the area around him began to slowly morph as he struggled to hold onto reality. Killer Queen pulled himself up, spitting blood from his mouth. He started disappearing and reappearing as Eyes Over Reality's powers were holding Emil captative. But for some unknown reason entirely unaffected for the enemy. "Not bad, I'll admit you have been backed against the corner. But that won't be enough to defeat me, especially since you have no powers of your own… Your silence confirms my suspicions."

"You can thank that bastard Brantley for that. He made a mockery of me, and I intend to return that favour!"

"Alton? Wait… So, it is you."

Killer Queen scoffed clenching serval knives in both hands. "Whoever you think I once was you are mistaken. I am so much more than my old self. I will have my revenge!" Throwing all the knives forward Emil pulled out a spray can spraying all the blades twirling his hand around consuming the blades into the pieces of paper he had in his pockets. Turning the knives into origami templates, he sent them back with his counterattack. The origami knives flew at Killer Queen in which in return he grabbed each one crushing it. The knives returned to their natural state, digging into his hands. Showing little pain, he dropped each one staring at Emil blankly. "Your attacks have no effect on me."

Emil held his head in pain as the stadium morphed into a small pump station. Falling over the counter, he saw Killer Queen standing over gripping Alton tightly strangling him. "Alton! Let him go!"

"As you can see, I've let go of my worries and concerns. I am more powerful than ever, thanks to this pest."

Emil jumped over the counter, tackling Killer Queen to the floor. As they both hit the ground, it crumbled apart as they fell into a frozen forest landing on the snow. Killer Queen stepped on Emil, holding a gun to his head. "Doing this won't change anything. We've changed. You don't have to go through with this anymore I was told what happened to you, we can help."

"The only way to help me is to lie down and accept my revenge." Emil was shot in the head as his body was propelled through space at high speed before he crashed back into the stadium being held up by the villain defeated. "You always were the weakest one of them all. Nothing ever changes. But know this Emil. I am now more powerful than any member of Team Rhapsody. I will show you very soon."

"That's enough, Montague." Killer Queen turned as explosions of fireworks and confetti rained everywhere, and cheers of the crowd swept the area. From the dust, someone was dancing hyping up the crowd as streamer drones flooded the area. "Why don't we boogie down and hype this part up?"

Killer Queen dropped Emil hissing with spite. "Crimson Dawn. The nerve of you to stop me."

Diego walked up striking a pose sending the crowd into a frenzy. "Oh, don't mind me? I have no intention of doing that but how about before you continue me and you have a crack at it. Afterall this game just got a whole lot more interesting now you're involved."

Killer Queen kicked Emil away, curling up his fist throwing serval knives. Diego dodged each one before they were even anywhere near him, striking an over the top pose at the end. This only pissed off Killer Queen as he took the fight head-on. Diego eyed him down smirking as he jumped back weaving his way through each attack like it was nothing as Killer Queen couldn't get a single hit in. Diego hopped on top of him jumping off his head flipping around sliding forward, sending his fanbase crazy. More fireworks blasted everywhere as Diego's bold ego was on full display. Killer Queen held his mask shaking before he screamed, pulling out a gun firing. Diego crouched down, avoiding the gunfire before charging forward, uppercutting him in the face. Killer Queen fell to the ground lying back defeated. "That deals with that. Now go on, move along."

Killer Queen pulled himself up, fading into the gas as Diego stretched his shoulder. "Why the hell did you let him go?"

"He's still got a few tricks up his sleeve. I don't want to ruin the surprise taking him down, we need a climax for my stream." Diego shrugged off, kicking Emil back down. "Now, now, now. Just because I saved you don't me, we're chumps. You're going to give up for me."

"What? Just who the hell are you?"

"Crimson Dawn, number ten streamer. I already know who you are Emil. You have caused quite the stir. My chat is on the hype train right now. Anyway, where were we?" He went to finish off Emil only to stop laughing, helping him up. "I'm just fucking with you buddy. Don't look so shocked. You still fully with me?"

Emil held his head groaning. "Maybe?"

"Good. Because I'm going to need your help."

"Help with what exactly?" He grumbled lost.

"What else," Diego smirked giving him a thumbs up. "Taking down Eyes Over Reality."

"You knew he was here?"

"Well duh, I was the one to put him behind bars. I can smell his foul wrench a mile off. One of the reasons I joined this freak game show. That and to see her first hand."

"Who?"

"Who else? The most powerful Antihuman in the world. Alice Hawthorne."
