Match 16593 Lars Alexandersson vs. Leona Heidern

[JohnnyChany]

GAINING AN EDGE: A MASSIVE FIGHTING GAME CROSSOVER

PART CXXXVIII

Lars Alexandersson walked through the eerily quiet streets of the Mexican village he had only recently departed. He had transported any injured Tekken Force soldier he could find to his vehicle. Now there was seemingly no one left to save. There were still broken bodies of Tekken Force soldiers and some villagers scattered through the streets, but none of them made a sound. He checked vitals on any potential victim that may still carry a pulse. 

The Yggdrasil captain had already been separated from his uneasy ally, Ivy Valentine. Lars knew Ivy had her own agenda, but he still assumed they would end up in the same place due to Ivy’s bizarre fascination with Leona Heidern. (REF: CHRISTIE VS. IVY)

Lars noticed a familiar face laying out in front of  a local storefront at the end of the street. It was the lady knight Leona had defeated while he was recovering.  (REF: HILDEGARD VON KRONNE VS. LEONA HEIDERN) Close by her were two more women in rough shape sprawled out on the ground. Lars did not recognize these two. One was an Ethiopian woman wearing white face paint and a blue unitard, the other a Chinese woman with her black hair tied in odango buns and wearing a sleeveless blue qipao and blue stockings. They appeared familiar to Lars, but he could not place them. (REF: CAMMY WHITE VS. LEONA HEIDERN)

A small golden lion tamarin scampered across the street and stopped next to the Ethiopian woman. The golden monkey then made a strange whimpering sound.The sound sparked a response, not from his owner, but from her traveling partner.

“Hey you, come here,” whispered Jianyu. 

Lars knelt down next to the Chinese woman.

“Can you do me a favor and finish me off? Cammy wouldn’t do it. I would rather not still be breathing when Bison finds us after our failure. Don’t make me beg the monkey.”

Bison’s name gave Lars pause as realization struck him why these two women looked familiar. They were Shadoloo dolls, M. Bison’s personal guard. 

Lars asked a question that he feared he knew the answer to. “Why would Bison send his personal guard to a remote place like this?”

Jianyu pointed weakly in Hilde’s direction. “To capture her and others like her.”

It was as Lars had suspected, Bison was after Soul Edge, just like Jin. Ivy was right, this was bigger in scope than even he had realized.

“I will not kill you,” Lars told Jianyu. “Just hold on and you can make it through this ordeal.”

Jianyu turned her face away from him. “You’re all useless.”

Lars did not press the issue. The hunt for Soul Edge was of serious concern to Lars, yet he remained focused on his immediate objective, Leona. Ivy had called it the Riot of the Blood when they got the call that Leona was attacking everyone in sight while on their way to meet with an associate of Ivy’s. Lars had no clue what that meant although it made him think of the Devil gene. Lars did not get any sinister vibes from Leona from their brief interactions when she was helping him recover after his fight with the golem monster. (REF: LARS ALEXANDERSSON VS. ASTAROTH) She certainly wasn’t warm and friendly, but he didn’t detect any malice in her serious militaristic demeanor. He felt some sympathy for her. Although, as he thought of all the bodies he had passed in the wake of her destruction Lars knew what he had to do.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Heidern looked on with great concern as his adopted daughter, Leona Heidern, took on Cammy White in a fight between military trained fighters subjected to more than their fair share of trauma. Although Heidern did care a lot for his adopted daughter, there was a part of him that was pulling for Cammy to come out on top. That way Leona for sure would be unable to transform back into her Ochi state before he could remove her from this situation. As long as Cammy didn’t take it too far. That wasn’t an unlikely scenario given the rage that Cammy felt toward Leona for destroying her “sisters”.  Heidern repeatedly tried to contact Kula Diamond and Blue Mary through his radio, but no one was responding. (REF: BLUE MARY VS. CASSANDRA ALEXANDRA)

“Kula, Mary, report. Your presence is needed immediately.”

For several minutes, Leona and Cammy exchanged combos with neither woman able to gain a distinct advantage. Leona stepped back and quickly threw her earring at Cammy. It was a sticky bomb and it clung to Cammy’s uniform. Leona then knocked the Delta Red operative back with her trademark knife edged chops, and designated the bomb with a watch on her wrist. It was a small explosive only designated to incapacitate Cammy. As Cammy fell to the ground, Leona hit her with a V Slasher for good measure.

Leona turned her back to the fallen Cammy. She could feel the Orochi blood trying to take over, she did her best to keep it under control. Leona was confused as to why this was so much harder to do now than it had been before. Something was amiss.

Cammy pushed herself up. “No! I can’t let you win. For my sisters!”

Leona tried to control her heavy breathing as she turned around back toward Cammy.

“Cannon Spike!”

Cammy delivered a powerful kick to Leona then flipped backward away from the Ikari Warrior.

“Cannon Drill!”

Cammy performed her Spiral Arrow. She launched herself toward Leona feet first and twisted her body like a screw. Leona took the full brunt of the attack. It was the last straw, and Leona’s Orochi blood took over once again. Leona returned to her feet, her blue hair turned to red again, a yellow flashing light covered her eyes, and she screamed like a feral beast. 

The energy discharge from the transformation hit Cammy like a shockwave, but the blonde street fighter was not deterred.

“Cannon Drill!”

Cammy attempted her Spiral Arrow again, but the newly transformed Leona snatched her out of the air and tossed her like a rag doll. A green aura surrounded Leona’s hands as she used them to attack Cammy. Leona was fighting like a newly fresh fighter, and much stronger than she had been before. Cammy tried her best to shield herself from Leona’s onslaught, but it was too much.

“Arrrggghhh!” shouted Leona.

A large ball of green energy surrounded by energy blades appeared in front of her. It viciously and continuously cut at Cammy, tearing her uniform and leaving lacerations on her body. Orochi controlled Leona made the technique last as long as possible to torture Cammy until the ball finally exploded and knocked the British brawler to the ground for good. Leona stalked toward her prone opponent to deliver more punishment.

Heidern watched in horror until he could stand by and do nothing no longer. “Enough!”

Leona’s yellow lit eyes flashed over to her adoptive father with no recognition. She charged at him on all fours like a wild animal. The crippled commander of the Ikari Warriors (REF: KULA DIAMOND VS. ALISA BOSCONOVICH) was unable to mount much of a defense before Leona knocked him to the ground to deliver a savage beating. Before she could kill Heidern, Leona was knocked off of him by a shoulder tackle followed by a roundhouse kick. The wild and uncontrollable Leona turned her attention to this new foe who had interrupted her.

“I don’t know what wicked thing is lurking inside you, but I have seen first hand the cost of letting evil that dwells in otherwise good people go unchecked. I am sorry, I have to put you down,” stated Lars.

Leona growled as the rage flowed through her body.

Very cool that your keeping track of your matches like that dude, very awesome!

I’m pretty bummed out that Cammy lost her fight, thought for sure she’d win. But Lars should definitely beat Leona here, during his role as main protagonist in T6 he beat Nina, Alisa, and even Kazuya in battle and at the end fought Jin and apparently stalemated him. The guy has to be at least one of the top 5 strongest fighters in the Tekken series, he’s got to win this.

[SSJRuss]

Lars is my man. He'll have a tough fight but I think he can put down Leona rather quick.

Also, thanks for the round update Johnny. Looks like DOA is doing the best in terms of wins/losses.

What! The! Fuck! Who the hell keeps voting for Leona? More importantly why did only 2 people vote for Lars?

That may be partially on me. I was leaning toward Lars myself, but I didn't do the research in time to vote.
