Chapter 2 - The light of dawn hath come

Silenteeeeedttle started with V1(the machine) shooting a laser beam at Gabriel

"Wow, spamming with the laser beam, how original."

He had fought that thing twice, so he knew how his style worked.

He quickly blocked all the attacks with his wings effortlessly and countered by launching swords of pure light.

After realising that the strategy won't work

Clink,

clink

clank

"..."

Gabriel wondered how you could possibly parry a sword made out of light

Logic wasn't a material in that machines were being

It changed its weapon to a razor gun

"Useless" the Razors that were spinning around him quickly got blocked by a Purple force field

Michael Authority of Thunder was stronger than you think

It grants control over electricity and electromagnetism

The purple force field was a magnetic one

V1 knew he couldn't defeat him with normal weapons

"BEHOLD the power of… A KING OF ANGELS "

A surge of lightning tore through the skies, launching the machine towards

"The voice of the Lord...the God of glory thunders" (Psalm 29:3)

The end hath fallen, and the world hath shattered.

The dimension they stood on was gone

All that is left is the silent echo of a world that once stood there.

Gabriel stared down at the void, was this truly the end? Did the machine really die?.

He was answered with a beam of blue light shooting through his body.

The blue GoPro camera was still alive.

Gabriel felt no pain, he merely smiled

"Ah yes, it would have been sad for you to die with no pain, I shall crus-"

He couldn't complete his sentence before being shocked, the machine was in a crouch start position.

A hint of nostalgia came into Gabriel's mind

V1 quickly disappeared from his sight and he heard a mechanical voice echoing through the void.

"JUDGEMENT!"

It quickly appeared before him, hitting him straight in the chest with its legs.

He was sent to an Unknown Distance, the concept of space was nowhere in the endless void

While V1 had no damage after parrying a divine lightning

Gabriel quickly checked his state

The left part of his body was gone(yes he got Tojied)

The Authority of healing that he got from Raphael was working passively to regenerate what was lost.

It would take some time for the machine to appear, about 3 seconds but that was enough for him to gather his thoughts

'That move… was that MINOS PRIME?

But how could he possibly be able to use his powers… hmmm could it be?'

He had already recovered from the injury

The machine had appeared in sight again.

Gabriel stood up

"Blood is the essence of soul, the vehicle of life and to drink blood is to take a part of someone's soul and directly fuse it into one's being"

V1 quickly blinked through Existence,

But it was in a sumo-like position.

"You can't escape! "

He threw a punch at him but Gabriel already expected him

Yet it was stopped.

The metal on the V1 body was melting

"I am guessing that was Sisyphus's move?

A metal scrap as you would never come close to defeating me"

He lifted his hands up

"Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels."

A huge sphere of light burned through the eternal darkness

It was an explosion that echoed far beyond the void reaching the different planets away

A supernova

The Authority of Uriel and Lucifer was taking effect.

A scream was heard, it was as if a child with a sore throat was crying

"I DON'T WANT TO DI($8$-7"

A mix between a scream and a machine's voice was heard.

Gabriel had no pity on that being, in fact, he was smiling with pleasure.

Yet it didn't last long before a terrifying roar echoed

"AHHHHHHHH"

It was absorbing the explosion

A shadow of a huge figure like a black hole that Gabriel had never seen before

The figure had many dragon heads surrounding THEM. THEY stared at the machine that was melting down

Gabriel then felt a weird feeling as if he wanted to be devoured; he could feel this being's hunger, and it was stronger than the machine ever was.

Ouroboros the Aeon of Voracity

The last Leviathan from the old era.

They were staring at both V1 and Gabriel like a mother looking at their child.

The machine absorbed all the energy from the supernova explosion and then it fell down.

Gabriel was still staring at Ouroboros.

'so… Father was right, there was something beyond his reach, and a whole new world to see.'

Although he stopped thinking about it.

What he needed was

What interested Ouroboros in them was their familiarity.

V1 was devouring and evolving to survive.

While Gabriel was evolving to surpass his creator, to reach perfection.

They truly, TRULY, wanted to devour both of them. Yet they wanted to see their meal in a perfect state.

So it gave both of them a blessing of the Voracity path.

Both Gabriel and V1 felt a new energy entering their body, it was different from the hell energy or the Authority they used.

'that being… What does it seek?'

V1 didn't care about where that power came from; it just wanted to kill the hell out of Gabriel for burning it alive.

The time of the Final clash had come.

A mechanical heart cold enough to extinguish the fire of hell.

Against

A burning soul that scorched heaven itself.

They both dashed towards each other

Gabriel created a sword made out of purple fire, the blessing he had received from that being had fused with his

Authority of Flames and Restoration

His attacks were already stronger because of his Wrath

Malik's Authority over Wrath and Agony had made it so that the Agony he inflicted upon 'sinners' would be amplified. For the Wrath part, it had supplied him with power, the angrier he was, and well, he wants to fucking kill the robot no matter what.

His flames were turning purple in colour

As if it wanted to devour everything in sight.

Hunger grew, and blood was there, so they both went after it.

V1 power grew with every moment.

The supernova it absorbed had upgraded his strength beyond reason.

His weapons fused with its body, amplifying their destructive power even more than they were.

He had grown a mouth in his chest area

And blue wings on the back of his body.

Light beams shot through the skies as they both clashed.

"..." Ouroboros felt like he was forgotten.

… back to Gabriel and V1' fight…

The machine used its Razor gun cutting off

His left arm.

But he didn't care. Raphael's Restoration power worked like magic, instantly regenerating his body.

He appeared in front of V1, tearing off V1's arms with his bare hands.

Blood fell into his mouth, the blood of that machine, his strength grew with him drinking it, yet he only felt disgusted.

He doesn't need to become like that creature to beat it, he doesn't need to become a beast of gluttony.

Yet that was leading to his downfall.

V1 started spinning the gun in his hands.

Boom

A hole was torn through his brain, giving it enough time to attack more.

Although Gabriel tried to attack him with a beam of light.

The sound of a coin flip was heard as V1 used them to deflect the bullet he shot in the direction of Gabriel's attack.

The battle went on with Gabriel getting trashed→ regenerating—>attacking with lightning or fire(maybe light)---> V1 parrying the attacks(sometimes it doesn't work, and he gets fucked over) —> and the cycle continues, it continued for days beyond, but neither of them stopped.

Gabriel seemed to grow tired with every clash, his powers were pushed beyond their limit the blessing he received was the only thing keeping him intact

He threw a punch at the chest yet the mouth opened itself.

Gabriel's arm was being crushed inside

"Let GO!" he punched the machine's head, yet it caught his arms mid-air.

His Wrath was growing by the second.

"I said, LET GO!"

Gabriel used all the offensive Authority of his powers

Thunder, Fire, and light

His hands, which were swallowed, started glowing inside V1's body.

A smell mix of burning flesh and metal filled the air.

The machine tried to scream yet its voice function didn't work.

An explosion was heard as V1's higher body turned to ashes.

His legs fell to the ground as Gabriel fell down at the same time.

"Hahhh-hah, FunFucking FINALLY!"

He wanted to celebrate his victory for beating that clanker… After his body was healed by angel's mercy(Raphael's Authority seems like a stretch).

He was waiting for himself to be healed…

Yet nothing happened.

A terrifying conclusion came into Gabriel's mind.

He quickly turned to the place where the machine was.

Yet he found nothing…

A hand tore through Gabriel's stomach as blood fell to the endless space in the void.

Anger filled his soul for being careless

Yet he didn't feel any increase in powers.

V1's body, which was halved 1 minute ago, was fully regenerated; it had stolen the powers that the angel carried.

Gabriel's body was thrown away as V1 used the started 'healing' Itself

Its body completely changed form turning fully human

"(&_(_–... Ahhhhhhh"

A scream was heard as V1 recreated his voice function.

"voice checking, voice checkin- oh it works"

The mechanical voice was replaced by a more 'human' voice.

He then turned towards Gabriel.

"I would say ripping your heart off was the most satisfactory thing in my life… Even though I only lived for 1 year."

Gabriel, towards the machi- his body was shattered, his wings cut off after the fight.

"You…you fucking scra-"

"56"

"...wh-"

"I just count the amount of insults you said, don't mind me, you can complete the shit you just said" his voice was filled with arrogance and provocation.

The being known as V1 seemed to have retained a personality. It was the last work of a relic, so it took the form of one. It had become the Embodiment of humanity's sin.

Pride, Gluttony, Wrath, Envy, Sloth, greed and lust.

"You dare speak to me like that! You fucking METAL HEAD"

"57- wait, never mind that insult was a new one."

Gabriel was frustrated and humiliated by the machine toying with him

"Uhhhh… Well, I planned to, but I already know what you are going to say sooo… Nope, after I kill you I plan to roam the space beyond"

He didn't have anything to do in this hell anymore on this planet anymore

V1 flock 'his' finger towards Gabriel using both divine lightning(Michael Authority)

And the light of the morning star (Lucifer light Authority) is planning to end Gabriel quickly.

Yet it didn't work

V1 was confused as to why it didn't work.

"Wait wh-AHHHHHHHHHHH"

He suddenly got ignited by Uriel's flame, and didn't seem so happy being inside of 'his' body.

In fact, no Authority was.

Thunder appeared out of nowhere, there was no scientific explanation.

Half of his body was turned into salt.

The Authority of Michael that turned things to salt was never used by Gabriel because he couldn't control it.

He once heard from one of his brothers that when Michael used his Authority, not only did a whole city disappear from the face of the earth, but it was said that some part of his body was shattered.

'It was only because of 'father's' help that he survived'

As for Gabriel using it, while he only received it for 4 days? Not a chance.

( An:definitely not because I forgot it existed…)

Gabriel quickly manifested a sword of light dashing towards V1

The Authority of Restoration worked to Return His Form to its weakest state, making him return to his machine form.

And finally Azrael's death.

It worked from the start but differently from other powers of angels, it worked to bring the fate of 'death' closer into being.

It didn't care about how the being died, it merely made his death possibility stronger.

Gabriel walked as fast as he could possibly go, he also thanked his dead brother in his heart.

'I would have kissed you if you hadn't died… Never mind that sounds gay.'

With quick slash V1 arms cutting them off.

V1, still in shock after what had happened, tried to parry, but it didn't work.

"WHY DID THE POW-"

"IT'S BECAUSE YOU ARE A FUCKING CLANKER"

The funny thing is Gabriel wasn't joking when he said the reason for the Authority's attack on V1… They attacked him because he wasn't an angel… (yeah, most of the angels were a bit racist in this book) when Big G gave them to Gabriel, and he was able to control their power because of the modification that his father gave him.

They accepted because he was their little brother, they weren't the powers of an angel. The Authority held a piece of the soul and will of angels itself.

Gabriel started stabbing V1 again and again and again, the Authority quickly returned to him retaining his powers

7 hours later.

Gabriel dared not speak, every time he said finally the machine came back.

… He might have gotten Ptsd from the fight but that was about it.

Suddenly remembering something he turned around and looked at the beings before him

Ouroboros was just staring at him.

And another ice Giant that appeared out of nowhere when he was fighting yet he didn't have enough fucks to give.

'Ah… I kind of forgot about these things'
