Marius wasn't expecting Eden's brutality of Aeon. He wasn't upset, however, that Aeon wouldn't attack. If anything, Eden's viscous and appalling assault upon the fool pleased Marius to no extent, especially the final touch. True beauty can be found in anything...and Marius had just seen it in Eden's action.

Marius brought both hands together and clapped them slowly.

Bravo my dear brother, brav-o...

It was then, however, Aeon came back. Marius was fed up with his shit now. He knew soon Aeon would launch another attack upon him. This time Marius would end it and finally turn his attention back to Sano.

Just as Marius foresaw, Aeon attacked. Again, Marius stood still, blocking some but taking the blunt of many simply because anger and adrenaline had long ago made him numb. Like a religious zealot, Marius had an idea in mind - the destruction of Aeon - and he wouldn't stop until he had reached his goal, in one way or another.

He looked to Aeon, catching his eyes. He then spoke in a cold, unforgiving loathing voice. You're wrong. I hide behind nothing. These men just so happen to be old friends of mine and thus, they will fight for me as I will fight for them. Luck of the draw for you I guess. To be quite honest, I had planned on pursuing our engagement after this battle - hunting you down if I must. That way, there is no rules of combat. Perhaps you think that I am a force not to be reckoned with now. Perhaps I am merely vain. Nonetheless, once this is over, you will taste the full extent of my fury, and you will bathe in your own piss as you cower from that fury.

It was then Marius launched what he hoped would be his final assault upon Aeon. He quickly ran to the man and kicked his left knee then his right with all his strength, powerful enough to break any bone, causing his legs to bend the opposite way they were intended to. After that, he stepped back and kicked Aeon again with his full strength in the groin, causing the man to be lifted several feet into the air. Marius jumped up and caught the man while he was still in mid-air and threw him into the concrete floor, splintering and shattering the concrete. Marius landed beside Aeon and reached to the ground, picking up a small jagged piece of rock. He then quickly slid it up and across Aeon's neck, thus severing the flesh, tendons, and muscles. Marius then turned and did a jump kick, landing it on the bottom of Aeon's chin, forcing his head back with much force, ripping the flesh even further and cracking bones. After that, Marius extended his left hand's fingers and jabbed them into Aeon's Adonis line - the soft area right before the man's hipbone. His fingers slid inside the man's body easily enough, finding the main artery that ran from the heart and down through the legs. Marius gripped it and twisted it, ripping the artery, causing blood to spray onto Marius. He then placed his other hand upon Aeon's collarbone and gripped it. He lifted Aeon a couple feet from the floor with his left hand, his arm sliding deeper into the man's body. Knowing the anatomy of humanoid creatures quite well, his various battles giving him most of the knowledge, Marius found Aeon's heart and grasped it. He squeezed the vital organ with all of his force, causing all blood to surge from it. Aeon's veins swelled as his blood, besides what had escaped due to his wounds, rushed through them. The whites of his eyes became crimson as blood flowed where tears would. The thick, crimson liquid bubbled from his ears, down the side of his face. All the while, Marius smiled, looking the man in the eyes. With a devilish smirk, Marius ripped his hand from Aeon's body, his hand still holding tightly onto the collapsed organ. Marius stood still for a moment then, holding the man's heart with one hand while still steadying him with the other. He released his grip of the man's shoulder.

I think this is yours...

He dropped the crushed heart to the floor, where it splattered what little blood remained around the area it hit. Marius then hit Aeon in his forehead with his palm, knocking the man onto his back. He stepped back a few feet and then stood there, towering above Aeon. If Aeon were to get back up, Marius would make sure he would quickly be down again.
