The urban landscape was quiet, far too quiet. Walking down the street, Vanguard could feel a presence. He wasn't sure of what it was, but something was tracking him, that much was a certainty.
"Mph, very well...", the warrior muttered, picking up the pace as he tried to find his opponent.
Suddenly, he felt a surge of energy coming from the rooftops and before he knew it, a powerful lightning bolt came down upon him from behind.
Instinctively, the metal behemoth turned around, pivoting as his left arm surged with energy. The lightning bolt met a charged fist emanating great electrical energy, nullifying the attack in a thunderous blow. However...
"Two!?", the warrior yelped in surprise. A second bolt came crashing down his shoulder, metal breaking down as cracks formed where the bolt had hit. Not even budging from his position, Vanguard turned to the direction of the attack, glaring at whoever was responsible for such a cowardly attack.
"Fine!", the warrior roared, "If you won't come to me, I will come for your head!". And with that, Vanguard's arm rose to face the heavens. A blinding light seeped from his gauntlet, and in an instant, a great halberd appeared in his hand.
"My name is Vanguard, the end is nigh!", he declared with a booming voice before he leapt from the ground, crashing on the building's wall and using the brick as support to gain momentum.
Despite his great size and weight, he climbed the wall swiftly, rubble falling whenever Vanguard took a leap, the colossal warrior used the gaps to gain momentum, getting closer and closer to the rooftop.
