21 Throwing!

The people of Chicago were enjoying their peaceful day. Kids were playing in the park with their families and their dogs. Men and women alike were crowding the streets. Some heading to work, some going to a bar, some just simply taking a walk to and enjoying the scenery that is until two objects smashed through a towering skyscraper. The citizens below went into full panic as Omniman slammed Mark's face into the ground, dragging him as they tore up the road.

" Ugh! Dad, You don't want to do this! I know you don't!"

Mark yelled to his father in an attempt to end things peacefully.

Nolan clutched Mark's head harder and lifted the boy up and slammed his head back into the ground even harder than before cratering the ground below them. Mark raised his fist and punched Nolan in his jaw knocking him into the air and off of him in the process. Mark gathered his strength and speared Nolan higher into the air. Nolan recovered and grabbed Mark's fist before it could hit him again and Nolan headbutted him sending Mark reeling

" I do want to do this. This planet is worthless. These people are animals! I thought you'd see things my way. The viltrum way. But if you won't side with me then you're my enemy."

Nolan said to the boy sternly and with conviction, his face scrunched up into a frown as he glared at the boy.

" Dad, I know you. I know you don't want to do this. You think you do but you don't. You love mom you love me. You might not love this planet, but I know you love us. We don't have to do this. "

Mark pleaded with his father to end the fight before things got too far. Mark floated up into the air right in front of Nolan and wiped the blood from his face.

" I do love you, Mark. And i do love your mother but the love I feel for her is more like a... Pet."

Nolan explained to the boy.

" I know that's not true and so do you! Please dad just remember everything we've been through over the years please. You know deep down you aren't the same man you were before coming to this planet. You've changed you know you have. I know you have!"

Marck exclaimed.

" No Mark. I haven't. My loyalties have and always will be to viltrum. Now, help me son. Work with me and we can take this planet for our cause, and we can guide the, to a better future."

Nolan said to the boy.

Mark stared at his father and sadly shook his head no. Nolan took a deep breath and steeled himself as did Mark.

" I had thought that maybe you would have found your viltrum blood. But I was wrong. Now, that we've come to this point I can't let you stop me."

Nolan exclaimed.

" I can and I will."

Mark exclaimed.

" You don't seem to understand. You may be strong Son. In fact, I'd say at the rate you're growing you'd be strong enough to even take on the regent with no problems. But right now, you don't have a choice but to surrender."

Nolan explained to the boy.

" Yes. I. Do."

Mark replied. he stared at his father and stood proudly against him.

Nolan hung his head and launched towards the boy and punched him in the face, knocking him across the city with ease. Mark smashed hard into a building, shattering all of the glass with ease and shot back out after his father. Mark and Nolan, both rushed each other with their fists pulled back and punched each other the force of the blow causing a shockwave that shattered every glass window in the center of the city. The two powerhouses pushed against each other each vying for dominance over the other.

" You are strong, Mark. But this isn't like those other fights of yours. This isn't like training. This time your foe hits back!"

Nolan said to Mark as he hit him in his face

Mark smiled and replied to his father.

" That's fine!"

Mark exclaimed as he kneed Nolan in his stomach, he then drove both of his fists into Nolan's ears and kneed him in the chin.

" You forgot I learned how to fight when I was young for a reason, dad. It was so I could take guys as big as you and take them apart!"

Mark exclaimed.

He spun around and delivered a kick to Nolan's jaw sending him reeling back. Mark then tackled the man and forced him out of the city to try and limit the number of civilian casualties.

As the two men fought the world watched on in horror as the man, they considered their greatest hero turn into their worst nightmare.

The two men traded blows with each as Nolan flung insults at Mark, the earth and Debbie. Eventually they both crash landed on an Island near a cruise ship. Mark got his feet as well as Nolan and the two rushed each other again. Both of them were seemingly equal in strength yet each had an advantage over the other. Mark had spent most of his life training in martial arts and had learned to take on guys his own size and bigger and win. And Nolan had hundreds if not thousands of years in experience coming up against guys just as powerful and as skilled as Mark.

Mark grabbed Nolan's arm in an attempt to break it, but Nolan grabbed the boy by his hair and yanked back hard causing him to lose balance and give Nolan an opening to strike.

" You may be trained but unlike you I have years of experience!"

Nolan told the boy as he slugged him hard in his chest.

Mark felt the wind leave his body as he flew through the air, crashing through the cruise ship in the process.

Mark skidded across the water a couple miles before recovering.

He shook his head to clear his senses and rushed towards the ship catching it before the two halves sunk into the ocean. He lifted them up and carried the shipwreck onto the shore.

The people on board began cheering as the man saved their lives only for the man to suddenly get throttled by Nolan.

" Are you sure you can afford to focus on saving those people's lives while fighting me? I thought I taught you better than that."

Nolan said to the boy as he slammed him through a mountain causing the snow to fall into the city below and killing nearly everyone who lived there.

' Fuck, he wasn't kidding. This is much harder.'

Mark complained to himself as dug himself out of the snow and took a look around at his surroundings and to his surprise. he didn't care. His body ache but the thing on his mind right now was the fight.

" Are you done? Or are you going to stand there all day lost in space like a pathetic little child?"

Nolan asked the boy.

His insult briefly overpowered Mark's senses and sent him into a rage.

" WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!"

Mark yelled in anger. He rushed Nolan to attack him but lacked the discipline from earlier.

Taking advantage of Mark's carelessness, Nolan hit Mark in his chin with an uppercut followed by a straight right into his chin. He then punched him in his chest and knocked him into the ground once again.

Mark spat up blood as he crawled on his knees.

' Okay, angered outbursts aren't going to work, so let's use a little less Frieza and Vegeta and try a little more calm.'

Mark thought to himself as he wiped the blood from his mouth.

Mark was getting to his feet but as he did Nolan continued his attack drilling both of his hands into Mark's back as he crashed down upon him. Mark grunted in pain but quickly composed himself.

Mark grabbed Nolan by his ankle and threw him up over his shoulder. Mark then got to his feet and rushed his father once again and grabbed him by his foot, he pulled him towards him and slammed his fist into Nolan's face forcing him into the ground. Mark then began punching Nolan in the face over and over again, causing blood to pour from his mouth and nose. Nolan, looked up at the boy in anger and kicked up in between Mark's leg in an attempt to hit him with a low blow. Mark caught Nolan's leg before it could hit and began swinging him around many times before throwing him off.

Nolan caught himself and landed on his feet, skidding across the ground as he did so and looked up at Mark with both pride in the boy's strength and anger in his rebellion.

" You would have been an amazing soldier of the empire, Mark."

Nolan said to the boy.

" Dad, it's not too late. We can still end this."

Mark gasped for breath as he got to his feet.

He was strong but like Nolan said up till this point everyone he's fought has been drastically weaker than him and not one of them had the experience Nolan did. Mark and Nolan were easily equals in strength despite Mark's young age.

" I thought I told you it was pointless. This whole fight is pointless!"

Nolan exclaimed in anger.

" How?! How is any of what you've done on this planet pointless? How are the people of this planet pointless? And more importantly, how is mom pointless?"

Mark asked the man, hitting him obviously where it hurt.

" Doesn't she matter at all?"

Mark asked the man.

" In the grand scheme of things no. She doesn't and neither do you. I will not live another minute amongst these animals. I will burn this planet to the ground before I do. And you can't stop me."

Nolan exclaimed.

" Oh Yeah? JUST WATCH ME!"

Mark yelled as he punched Nolan in the face.

Mark once again flew into Nolan and pushed him straight into Earth's orbit.

" You want to fight me up here? I thought you were smarter than that Mark."

Nolan said to the boy as he elbowed him in the face over and over again causing Mark to lose his grip on the man's waist.

Nolan turned and punched Mark in his face again causing the boy to roll back wards.

Nolan grit his teeth and speared Mark, riding him back down towards the earth, both men punched each other in the face repeatedly as they plummeted down to the ground like a comet. However, as they traded blows, Nolan hit Mark right in his nose dazing the young man slightly knocking dizzy. Nolan then continued punching Mark as they drew closer and closer to the ground.

Nolan punched Mark in his mouth as hard as he could just as they hit the ground. The resulting explosion shook the planet for miles. When the dust cleared Nolan was standing over Mark pummeling him over and over.

" You want to die for these people?! Fine! What's seventeen more years?!"

Nolan asked Mark as he continued punching him the face.

" I can always start over! Make another kid."

Nolan exclaimed as he continued pummeling Mark hard. His blows so strong they split Mark's chin and Knocked the front row of his teeth out.

Mark spat in the man's face and punched Back, knocking Nolan off of him slightly. Mark quickly got to his feet and punched Nolan again in his face before headbutting him in the nose and breaking it.

At this point both men were quite blood. Nolan had his nose broken and was bleeding from his mouth, nose, and was definitely sporting multiple broken bones.

Mark on the other hand had more sever wounds. His chin was split open, he was missing his front teeth. Most of his ribs were broken and so was his left arm. He had multiple contusions and was suffering from a severe concussion. Yet he kept swinging away.

Mark rushed Nolan to attack him, but Nolan sidestepped him and planted his fist into Mark's side. he then planted his fist into Mark's jaw and slammed him into the ground.

Nolan then started pummeling Mark once again for a few minutes before suddenly stopping.

" Da...d?"

Mark called out to the man as he struggled to move.

Nolan looked down at the boy and suddenly had an angry outburst.

" WHY DID YOU MAKE ME DO THIS? YOU ARE FIGHTING SO YOU CAN WATCH EVERYONE AROUND YOU DIE! THINK MARK! YOU'LL OUTLAST EVERY FRAGILE INSIGNIFICANT BEING ON THIS PLANET! YOU'LL LIVE TO SEE THIS WORLD CRUMBLE TO DUST AND BLOW AWAY! EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING YOU KNOW WILL BE GONE!"

Nolan explained to the boy in a rage.

Mark went to stand once again but was met by another hard fist into his back.

Nolan stood over Mark and stepped on his face in victory.

" TELL ME! WHAT WILL YOU HAVE AFTER FIVE HUNDRED YEARS?!"

Nolan asked the boy as he ground his boot against Mark's head.

" You dad... I'd still have you."

Mark said to the man shocking him.

Upon hearing his words Nolan removed his foot from Mark's head and looked down at the boy in sadness and shame. He looked at the blood on the boy's face, a mixture of his own as well, and the blood on his hands and grimaced. He set his feet firmly on the ground and took off into space, leaving behind a single tear of regret as Mark lost consciousness.

Author's Note.

I know some of you aren't going to be happy with the way the fight ended. Ugh Mark losing again despite training. But Mark was always drastically weaker than his father who unless you've read the comics none of you would know Omniman is much stronger than your standard viltrumite. And like Nolan said, Mark may be strong and is definitely fast, but one thing Nolan has over mark is hundreds if not thousands of years of experience in battle and war tactics. On the field Nolan is easily the third strongest viltrumite in the series. So, yes unfortunately this chalks up for a loss for our boy Mark, but for his first real fight I'd say it was well earned loss. Let me know how you guys felt about the chapter. I'm sure some of you may be screaming my head off or dropping. And that's fine. I appreciate the support you guys have given this. So, whether or not you guys stick around is all right. Till next time see ya!
