The Slums

Aruna
Aruna sidestepped as fast as he could, returning her wings to his back to avoid them getting striked or grabbed. Except he couldn't sidestep! She was being pulled into him. Chains emerged from his arms, spikes from his torso, his only defense being the threat to skewer him on impact. The chains that emerged threatened to wrap around Zeke's throat.

Zeke
A gleam flashed in his eyes. She was better than last time, and much more assertive. If this were the old him, this would be the end here and then.
But she wasn't going to win by running from her shadow. Her chains of plundering were broken down into the void, the spikes were sucked and shattered into nothing. The darkness consumed, the magic returned to the void whence it came. Compared to a pure dark emptiness, something that needed to channel its properties through a medium stood no chance. They just melted and vanished from this world the moment they touched his darkness.
And his hand was already moving to grab her neck. What would follow would be a series of impacts she wouldn't soon forget.
But could she overcome?

Aruna
What?! Is his darkness stronger than hers now?! No.. it was more parasitic. It ate her magic.
Aruna's demonic body was pummeled. Every strike punctured him, imprinted him with everything he had. Arms, chest, legs, face: every single thing was struck until he was buy a mess. Dark energy cloud surrounded his arm and a dagger materialized in his hand.
I can't belive you made me bring it out....
Summoning whatever strength Zeke beat out of him, he gripped the dagger and thrust it into the hand reaching for his throat. It was a weapon given to all guardians, a tool for punishing those who had strayed down the path of greed. The stronger the person's lust for power, the stronger the blade would be. Thus, the weapon was known only as.... the dagger of lust.

Zeke
Somebody somewhere once spoke with the harbinger of the end times. The Antichrist offered that man a warning. That he wont be satisfied, but his desire will grow relentlessly, until he drowns in the very cup he wished to sup from.
He was that empty cup.
A sensation. His wide eyes didn't even attempt to hide the shock as he felt something plunge into him. And then pain, a horrifying, soul crushing pain that spread all over the core of his greed, his being. His hand was pierced cleanly like butter, but the pain traveled everywhere. It was enough to cripple a man, enough to make a man scream, enough for Zeke's vision to blur and for him to grit his teeth-
He grabbed the hand that stabbed him and foced the knife deeper in his vessel, until it touched him. And with a jerking pull, he hurled the demon so close to him that the headbutt that followed likely barely registered. And as the demon's head cracked like a melon, as the strength of that void impacted with Aruna's being and rattled it to the core, who would prevail?
yinsukin:
Aruna
No way. For the dagger to be hurting him this much.... what the hell was driving him like this? Was it what he saw in his soul. Sure it was a lively, hungry soul but, its gotten more intense, more harsh, more perverted even.
"False demon! Know this! What you delve in is forbidden taboo in demon culture. Assimilation is to be done with consent or times of war," he said, screaming at the demon before reeling back from the headbutt delivered to his face. Once that moment happened, it was as if his body had felt the full weight of the strike. His vision went black. "You... stupid false... demon. I... was... helping her."
And thus, the demon fell limp against Ezekial's torso.
