Angell stumbled back, shrieking as his invention fell from his hands. The stone shattered, the pieces falling away and tumbling down into the dusty street. He fired - a single shot that whistled up and crashed into the chunk of stone floating above Dr. With his last bit of strength, he sat up and raised the rifle. Sheriff Braddock didnвЂ™t wait for a response. вЂњIвЂ™ll need you to forget what you areвЂ¦and protect my town.вЂќ вЂњI need to know that when IвЂ™m goneвЂ¦you will protect my town.вЂќ Blood pooled between his lips.

вЂњCane, one of us ainвЂ™t gonna survive the day.вЂќ The sheriffвЂ™s fingers reached out and he grabbed his rifle. He could have just stepped on CaneвЂ™s skull and pushed. Uriel followed him, stamping closer and closer to Cane. He landed next to Sheriff Braddock, gasping as the ground knocked the wind out of him. CaneвЂ™s revolver fell from his hand, landing back in the dust. Uriel yanked him up, hauling him out of the office and throwing him back into the street. Uriel ran towards him again.Д¬ane tried to crawl away but felt a grip like iron taking hold of his leg. Cane struggled to stand вЂ“ but even getting a breath into his body was an ordeal. Bits of jagged glass stuck into his shoulders and arms, digging into his flesh like teeth. Cane soared into the front of the sheriffвЂ™s office, smashing through the plate glass window and crumpling the wooden floor. He grabbed CaneвЂ™s arm and hauled the bounty hunter off his feet, then hurled him through the air. This time, Uriel didnвЂ™t bother with throwing a punch. The minerals of Silver Mesa would grant unholy strength to his creations. Sparks poured out of UrielвЂ™s open mouth and the giantвЂ™s eyes slammed open. It slammed into the chest of Uriel, sending electric currents shooting through his limbs. Inside the ring - seemingly floating in air - was the chunk of Silver Mesa stone taken from Santiago.ДЄ bolt of crackling energy ripped through the air, with a noise like a tearing silk sheet. It seemed to be a glittering brass ring, dotted with sparking bolts of electricity.

Angell stood on the railing of his ship, holding some strange mechanism above his head with both hands. вЂњApparently, my first creation was indeed the best! But IвЂ™m afraid this shall be a short-lived victory!вЂќ Dr. UrielвЂ™s eyes slid half shut and he grunted slowly. By the time the saber had hit the ground, Uriel had staggered back, bullet holes bleeding in his massive chest. He drew one of his revolvers and opened fire, cracking off six shots into UrielвЂ™s guts. There was only way to beat him вЂ“ fight dirty.ДЄs Uriel pushed back the blade, Cane released the swordвЂ™s handle. Uriel would rip the sword from his hand, snap it in half and then tear off CaneвЂ™s head. Cane tried to push back, but he knew Uriel was far stronger than him. Uriel pushed the saber back, ignoring the steel digging into his palm.
