On the other side of the city...
The Dude blitzed over a series of land mines and they exploded behind with Dude already clear of the explosion. He kept running until he arrived at the old cathedral. Running inside, he saw a man tied to the ceiling with a rope that was starting to snap. There was a pit of spikes below him. Dude was about to run up and get him down heard something and turned around and saw the villain. Speed Devil. He twirled his staff. "Hello Superhero."
The Dude turned around and looked at him. "Alright, what's your gimmick?"
"Speed. Real speed." He said.
"Really?"
"Yes and if you want to save the civilian, you'll have to get by me."
"First, tell me where you took my friend and why."
"Why? For kicks. As for where...I don't know."
"Except you do know."
"What?"
"You just told me. You said that you took him for kicks, which means you know where he is." Dude raised a hand to his ear. "You get that boss lady?"
"Good move Dude. We're on our way."
"So what? I'll beat you to death well before any of them arrive."
"Good luck with that."
Up above the rope snapped and the man started to fall while at the same time the two speedsters rushed each other.
Helpful Note: The following exchange takes place in the time it took the man to fall from the ceiling...
The Dude jump kicked him but Speed Devil blocked it and sweeped his leg and Dude landed on his back but he pushed off of his hands to spring back up and started rapidly punching him but he used his staff to block the punches and responded with a super fast knee to the chest but the Dude saw it coming and backed away from him and Speed Devil swung the staff at him and it slammed into The Dude and he swung him against a bench and Dude fell over onto it and he got up and The Dude flipped over onto the one behind it and then Dude jump kicked him in the face and got a solid hit on Speed Devil who flipped off of the bench and landed on one knee and The Dude was already super speeding at him. Speed Devil recovered and the two ran around the church moving too fast for the human eye to see and slamming each other into walls, against the ground, against benches, against the old pipe organ, and against the altar. Dude grabbed his staff and kicked the back of his leg and then hit the back of his head and threw his staff away but Speed Devil recovered and backhanded him across the face and then gave him a super speed kick in the side. The Dude slid across the ground but stopped himself and waited until he was close and hit him with a 540 degree spinning kick that caught him completely off guard. Landing on the ground, The Dude speeded over to him and gave him a series of rapid punches in the stomach and then kneed him in the face and then hit him with a super fast uppercut, speeded over to the left of him, kicked the back of his feet and then punched him back down to the ground.
The Dude then turned around and ran over to the falling man and leaped over the spikes and caught him, carrying him over it. Dude rolled to his feet. "There we go. How are you today?" Dude asked. Behind him, Speed Devil started getting up. "One sec." The Dude super speeded over to Speed Devil and began running around him so fast he caused a whirlwind as he pummeled the super villain until he was done and The Dude punched him down again.
"Thanks for the workout." Dude smirked.
Artemis, Ultra Girl, Reaper and Carmella arrived soon after to find the beaten down villain laying on the floor in the Church. The man was recovering and The Dude was praying for forgiveness for fighting in the Church. "Hey girls, glad to see you made it. Here's the bad guy."
Artemis withdrew her sword."Wait." Carmella spoke up. "We should do this outside."
"Good point." Ultra Girl reached out with her telekinesis and grabbed Speed Devil, carrying him outside.
"Talk." Artemis said coldly.
"Go to hell b-ch." Speed Devil spat.
"I was hoping you'd say that."
The Dude closed the church doors. "Mister, you might want to plug your ears."
