《Myriad Huntress》Chapter 4: Daredevil Vs Joan
Advertisement
Midnight
This is the time where the majority of people sleep and rest to wake up tomorrow for another of work, but not all of them have this mindset.
This is the time where some people with desires walk out of their hole and start spreading chaos. In this time of the night, the murder, robbing, sexual assault became a common occurrence. This can be said that this city was one of the highest crime rates area in New York.
At the top of the building, Joan was currently wearing a black leather suit, not to be a bitch but wearing a short red dress in the night was not her gig like true Elektra. If she's going to kill someone, she prefers it to be stealthy and fast as possible.
The reason she's here because she's waiting for the hero to show up. No need a reason to find him when he was looking for trouble himself. She looks down and saw a bunch of crooks exchanging money for cocaine.
Suddenly a red-figure like a blur shows up, like a shadow, he was creeping to his nearest victim taking them down one by one silently.
At first, no one notice, but soon, they started to notice some of their gang members were missing. They began to panic and run away fast. But as a superhero, he was much faster than an ordinary man, using his weapon of choice, he began hitting them with his twin black baton; his speed and accuracy can be said deadly and critical. She saw him, hitting them at their weakness.
She whistled in appreciation. Looks like taking down Matt will need an effort.
After taking down the last one, Matt was about to turn around when-
"Swish"
He dodges his head on his left fast, he was almost hit by a flying object. He looks at the direction where it came from, he was startled because he felt a presence coming to him slowly. Then it hit him, the familiar smell.
"You- "
Before he can say anything, Joan already pulls out her two sai's an approach him fast, before Matt can react, he felt a gut punch on his stomach making him throwback and bumping on the nearby cement wall.
"Stand up red boy, if you don't want to die unfairly, do your best to survive." A cold voice said in front of him
He coughs out blood and stumbles while looking up. He can still feel the pain in his stomach.
"Cough" why?!"
She shrugged her shoulder
"Sorry, someone just orders me to take you out."
"Is it kingpin? Are you working for him?" he grits his teeth and pinch his fist
"No, and whoever he is, he has no relation to this."
"But- "
He rolls the right, dodging her flying kunai.
"Fuck..." Matt stood up and look at her, he was about to turn around when-
"Bang!"
She suddenly appears before him, making him stumble backward.
Joan frown because she never expected daredevil to be so weak. She tilts her head.
"Observe"

"Stick student?"
She frowns deeper, since he is Stick disciple, why did he order her to kill him? What kind of test supposed to happen here? And look at those bunch of rank C and B skills, she can't help her eye twitch looking at those skills higher than her.
So he was not weak, but she was much faster than him. Using [Bio-electro body enhancement], she was able to enhance her physical speed by two times temporarily making her faster than a cheetah by five minutes. But according to his skills, he should be able to dodge her attack normally. Then why didn't he dodge her attacks? She observes the list of his skill and found his sense of smell which is rank C... thinking of this, she looks at herself and smells herself. She forgot to erase her perfume before she changes her outfit.
"You recognize me..." she said in a fact.
Matt didn't say anything but look at her stubbornly.
She just sighs and twirls her two sai.
"No personal grudge, just doing my job"
She was about to attack him when-
She flips backward fast, she heard something hit the place she was before, she stood up and looks dignified. In her previous place was a long stick embed at the ground. She looks at its contour, that stick was very familiar to her.
"Stick"
"That's enough Elektra" a voice came from the shadow
She lowers her weapon and stare at the old man who appears without her noticing.
"So it's you".
"Master!" Matt was surprised to find his master here, he didn't feel his approach making him startled.
"Shut up fool, you disappoint me!"
Matt lower his head
"Sorry master"
Then he looks at Elektra
"Good, you never disappoint me" he looks at her approvingly
Joan frown because she doesn't know what stick is playing at.
"So, should I need to kill your disciple?"
Stick stop and look at her
"How did you know he is my disciple?"
"C'mon master, his fighting style resembles you. I am very familiar with how he fights. After all, I experience your techniques first hand." she said bitterly while remember his torture since she was a kid
Stick laugh out loud, Matt was shocked what he heard from Elektra
"You're also a disciple of the master?"
She just shrugged her shoulder not answering but staying silent.
Matt began to pieces together what's happening here then he turns at the old man fiercely.
"You hired her to kill me!?"
"It's a test, Matt."
"What kind of test this is? You make both of your disciple's kill each other? For what?"
Stick just sigh and approach them.
"Elektra was one of my best students, she was exceptionally gifted in combat making her above her peers, sadly, she was still inexperienced in fighting in the real world. That's why her first test is to tried to kill you"
Matt gritted his teeth in anger.
"So I am what now? Some kind of punching bag? Letting your other disciple bully me?"
Without waiting for an answer, he turns around and runs. Seconds later he vanishes.
"Elektra"
She turns to Stick
"If I kill him, are you going to punish me, old man?"

Stick laugh and shake his head.
"If you manage to kill him, then that means he was weak, it was his fault if that happens."
Stick just sigh, pull out the stick from the ground then turn around.
"Congratulation Elektra, your now officially a member of the Chaste."
The words echo around the alley, making her look pensive.
-
The next day. For the first time, Matt didn't attend the school making the teachers disappoint in him. Elektra looks at the empty seat while thinking.

At midnight, Matt finally recovered a little from the previous injury and was about to do his vigilante job, he was about to go patrol but stop when he smells the familiar perfume.
"Come out," he said hoarsely
Someone figure came out from the shadow
"Your skill is annoying."
He didn't answer and silently look at her
"What do you want?"
"I want us to be friends"
Matt snort and didn't say anything
"Hey, don't judge me, I just been ordered by that old man."
"Then why did you accept it?"
"Because it is my first mission given to me."
Matt was startled when he heard that
"Wait, so you haven't killed someone yet?"
"Nope."
Matt was confused about why he became her first target. Like Joan, he was suspicious what the old man is trying to do.
"Are you sure you're not going to kill me?"
Instead of answering him, she has drawn out two sai from somewhere
"If still not convince, how about a spar then?"
"I thought you're not going to kill me?"
She shrugged her shoulder
"I won't kill you, I just haven't found someone that can last more than one round on me, except for some masters, I can't find someone I can call peers."
He just about to answer her when-
"if you managed to defeat me, you can ask any reward from me. Any rewards..." while doing this, she licks her lips seductively making him gulp. His words were stuck in his throat making him cough violently.
Joan can't help but laugh cheerfully
"I see you're still a virgin huh"
"I'm not a virgin!" Matt retort while blushing in shame, thankfully his mask covers his face who was now color as a tomato.
"Dude, your easy to read" she grins cheekily looking at those red ears behind the mask. Her teasing clearly affected Matt.
"Wha-
He touches his mask unconsciously making her laugh out more. Startled, he lowers his hand knowing she had him. Then he became serious, unlike last night, he was fully vigilant, the teenage boy was gone replaced by an experienced fighter. Joan laugh vanish and became serious too.
Electricity starts to flow to her body.
Daredevil carefully observe her, he can see every micro electricity flowing in the surface of her body, the electricity was coating her fast. He can feel her body motion and cellular activity was increase by two times.
"So that's how it is." He was impressed by how she utilizes the energy, unlike her, he can't control the energy around him, but he can feel them around him making him easily detect any incoming signal around him. That's why he can dodge bullets and flying projectiles before they can hit him. By using the extra sensor like a heat sensor and thermal sensor, he can feel any projectile trajectory before it hit.
Joan approach him fast, holding her sai, she starts landing a fast attack on him, although she was faster than him than two times using [Bio-electro enchantment], sadly she wasn't able to land a single attack.
He was flexible and managed to block her other attacks as he was reading her electrical pattern, thinking of this, she began to transfer electricity to her weapons. Matt gawked when he felt her attack was getting faster. He began to have difficulty parrying her attacks due to an increase in speed. Matt felt the strain of his hyper senses by dodging and predicting her movements, thinking of this, he pulls out his two batons from his waist, and start parrying her attacks. He stops dodging her and starts to look for her weakness.
Joan felt the strain of using electricity on her body. Thinking of this, she began to overflow her body with electricity, with both body and weapons enhance by energy to the full, she began to overpower him in combat. Matt began to sweat, trying to parry her fast attacks.
Joan grit her teeth and use her trump skill [Bio-Electric shock ], she let out an electricity explode around her, Matt was unable to respond to the sudden attack making him stunned for three seconds, but three seconds was enough for her to end the fight, she uses her full body attack and kick his chest where she attacks him yesterday.
He was forced back, he retrocedes in his step and touch where she kicks him.
"That's cheating!"
She didn't answer him and gulp in weariness, by using body enhancement, weapon enchantment, and Electric shock, she can feel her energy almost depleted.
"You alright?"
She nod
He sigh
"Although your control of energy is incredible, your body can't take it if you use too much energy."
"I know"
He frowns when he heard it.
"Then why are you doing it? Are you trying to kill yourself?"
"No, I'm not that crazy to sacrifice myself for just simple power-ups"
Matt was confused about what she is doing.
"I'm trying to find the right amount of energy that suits me most"
"So your experimenting on yourself?"
She didn't say anything and sat down.
"You're crazy!"
"Whatever."
Matt looks at her intertwine. Then sat beside her
"Sorry" Matt murmur
Joan was startled and look at him
"Why are you sorry?"
He scratches his head, not knowing how to answer.
She snickers and shake her head
"So friends?"
"If you're not going to attack me like yesterday, maybe I can think about it."
"Hmm, I can't promise that"
"Hey!"
"Just kidding! If you let me spar you occasionally, maybe I'll let you in peace"
"Crazy" but Matt was smiling now
That day, she got her first ally: Daredevil
