As Matt laid cold and motionless, stunned from the force from the Penetrator, the giant knight strolled next to his body to have one more good look at his opponent, sizing up his potential worth.
The Axe Armor watched silently at the sight of this metal monstrosity. Somehow, he felt that it was his personal responsibility of himself, who wanted to throw the axe in the first place, for the downed child. However, how else could he stand up to a superior who abused his platoon, yet could not fight him due to fear of combat experience? There were rumors going about the Penetrator as well, how he was undefeated for decades as one of the best knights, for a lost kingdom long ago...
But, there was also another rumor of the only time the Penetrator fell to another warrior. When the kingdom the fallen knight served under was in great peril, one apprentice knight came to challenge him. The knight was very agile, but not strong enough to handle the might of the Penetrator's sword. When the Penetrator came to finish the peasant off, only the help from a fellow experienced knight, whom the apprentice freed, helped even the score.

[/spoiler]
History...was about to repeat itself.
As the Penetrator prepared to strike down the hero, the Axe Armor pulled out its throwing axe strapped to its side. Taking careful aim, the Axe Armor let out a deep breath. Then, he lobbed the axe at the Penetrator, as it connected to the shoulder blades where he held his precious sword, and made a clean cut through the armor and mail. The Penetrator fell, his soul essence flowing out of him in a gassy hiss. He composed himself from the wound, gathered his arm to reattach to himself, and turned slowly, spouting out...
"You...you're the one, who threw the axe...didn't you?"The Penetrator grinned to himself, as the Axe Armor unattached his Battle Axe, trying to keep his spirit from falling into pieces.
------------------------------------------
Soon after, Matt woke to the sound of a clang. He saw the Axe Knight who threw it, trembling in fear.
"Oh, dung..."Matt was definitely in a frenzy, wondering how to help. Without any spirits to use, he was useless in combat. Aside from his gear, all he had was a hunting knife. He doubt the Penetrator had any humanity in him, so that was out.
"Gotta find a weapon, gotta find a weapon...wait, what's this?"He soon spotted a set of iron knuckles sitting atop of a pedestal. Wondering what the gaudiness was for, he took a closer inspection. The knuckles were engraved, "Those who crafted this may have fallen, but the Kaiser who wields this will answer our calling." Immediately, Matt knew exactly what the signifies.
"...Perfect. I always wanted to use that word anyway...such an awesome word!"------------------------------------------
We return to the two knights out for honor, with the Axe Armor on the ropes. Even though he's not as slow as most people think from his girth, the Penetrator has worn him down. As he dodged the Penetrator's swipe with a roll, he used the niche between the axe and the pole to catch the Penetrator's oncoming attack. The two are locked in a power struggle, when suddenly...
"...Hey."The Penetrator only flinched for a second.
"Hey!"The Penetrator, using his free arm to knock aside the Axe Knight, slowly turned...
"Oh, I'm sorry...were thou talking to me, disgrace of a servant? No matter...I will deal with this matter, once and for all!"As soon as the Penetrator flinched to raise his sword, Matthais released a barrage of fists, fast enough for the eye to be fooled into believing there were hundreds. Even though they appeared random, they targeted every vital spot of movement on the giant, with strength much stronger than even a bodybuilder's hook. Amongst all the sounds of dents being made, this was heard...
"Ora ora ora oraoraoraoraoraoraoraoraoraora...ORAH!!!From the dust knocked out of the Penetrator, there was one final noise of metal falling to the floor. One man could be heard, taking in the debris with deep breaths. Soon, there was a blue gas coming from the Penetrator's remains, and along with all the dust, they were inhaled by the youth, who seems almost possessed from his new strength.
"Believe me, you don't want to be on my bad side."
