DC Universe: Charmer- Chapter 2

The Fire Rises

The fire starts to break the windows of the bank, the building is about to explode into flames and Charmer is on the ground with third degree burns on his body. Then, the building falls...

2 Days ago...

"You're ready" Zatanna said "I found someone for you"

"Who is it?" Charmer asked

"He is a short male acrobat in a black mask that uses a one-handed axe with fire powers"

"Did you say one-handed axe?"

"Yes, why?"

"2 months ago, I fought a robber with a one handed axe and I tried to save him, but he died from the fire and turned to ash"

"What was his name?"

"John Kert"

Her eyes widened "when you tried to save him with your sorcery?"

"Ya"

"He must of gotten his powers that way" Zatanna said. Charmer looked down confused and then said,

"What are the coordinates?"

Charmer went to Kert's first hide out to see if he was there. The door were chained up, so Charmer vibrated his molecules and went through the door to be quiet. Then, he saw Kert. " Do you remember me?" Kert said, "the person that you left to burn! I was under that rubble for an entire month until they cleaned up the building. When I woke up, I didn't know what was happening to me, I was burning hot all the time and at times, I turned on fire. It took me an entire month to find out what was really happening to me"

"Wait, I can help you" Charmer said

"I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP!" He threw a fire sphere at Charmer and said "and my name isn't John Kert anymore, he's dead, I am Flame!" Then he made a big wave of fire and pushed it toward Charmer. Charmer tried to run but he got hit into the wall and severely burned. Flame turned his hand on fire and walked toward Charmer, but then Charmer disappeared and next thing he noticed, he was in the watchtower.

Zatanna was in front of him and asked "are you ok"

"No" Charmer said "I couldn't defeat him."

"Don't worry, I will get you ready to fight him next time" Zatanna then brought him back to New York. "You need to rely more on your magic and less on you speed and fighting skills."

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that you will need to start..." She stopped talking and was silent and then fell into Charmer's arms. With an axe in her back.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" Charmer yelled. Then, he saw Flame running into the Chinatown Bank, so Charmer followed him.

"And here we are!" Flame said "where this all started, it's time we end it"

"I agree" Charmer speeded toward Flame when he turn his entire body on fire, blowing Charmer away. Charmer had his hand fully burned and this time, he knew that no one can help him now. He had to do this himself.

"It started with a fire and it will now end with a fire" Flame turned the entire room on fire. Charmer tried to run around and take out the fire, but then he got hit by a fire ball and fell down. The fire starts to break the windows of the bank, the building is about to explode into flames and Charmer is on the ground with third degree burns on his body. Then Charmer remembered what Zatanna said. "You need to rely more on your magic and less on your speed and fighting skills".

"By full moon's light, with helping hands spread good health, through my burns, send energies far and near, to heal these injuries, with harm to none, so mote it be." Charmer's began to heal then, the bank fell. Flame was outside laughing, but he wasn't when Charmer super speed punched him.

"How are you alive!" Flame asked

"I have more than just speed and fighting skills, I have sorcery. As hard as rock, as strong as stone, my Guardian will fight until he's poned" Then, a Rock Guardian appeared and charged at Flame with Charmer. While the Guardian was fighting off Flame, Charmer was making a sorcery sphere made of all seven types of magic, but the Guardian didn't last long, but he gave Charmer enough time. Flame ran at Charmer with a fire sphere and Charmer blasted Flame with his sphere and knocked him down.

"Where am I!" Flame asked

"It's called a capsule" Charmer said "you're probably use to steel bars, but we made this especially for you and you will never escape."

"We'll see"
