SSLLAMM!!
The head crashes down the force creates a shockwave knocking the trio over
“What is that monstrosity!?” Aki already back on her feet,
Graghgh!
The creature bares it’s sharp teeth, the rest of it’s body is much smaller than the head,
(If you could even call it a body….)
Beneath it’s neck is a bevy of tentacle-like legs, almost like spider’s legs but not quite,
Grauuhh!!
The air around the deformed black creature heats up
“Move!” yells Shiryu
“It’s going to fire a breath attack!!”
GROUUWW!!
BWOOOVVOOOFFFF!!!
The three manage to escape the line of fire as a pressurized blast of fire erupts from the things mouth
(It hasn’t moved yet)
Shiryu spies one of things tentacles flowing down from the air
(It’s connected to black cords up there)
“Block Claude, Shiryu!” Aki commands preparing for her retaliation
“Heeeyuhh!”
She takes a strong breath in then presses tow fingers on her lips,
Pfssssssss~
She breathes out a pale blue gas at the creature that builds up into a large ball
“Get ready!” Aki takes out a large steel spike in one hand and a magic stone im her other which she then tosses into the gas
BANGHSHHKKK!
It ignites in the gas but instead of exploded into flames the gas expands then condenses into a frigid dome of ice trapping the creatures head temporarily
…
“Nnyawgh!”
Not wasting time Aki darts near the thing a stream of black smoke following her as she leaps up nailing the spike into it’s chilled head….
….
….
Crrrr!
Crrrrkkk!
Brackksh!
The ice breaks
UURAGHHHH!
You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.
The creature immediately lets out another scorching breath blast at the woman now on it’s face
“Aki!” Shiryu cries out as she seemingly gets incinerated by the pressurized fire
….
Tssszzz♪
The ground below glinting red from the heat a thick smoke building up from the aftermath….
…Tsszz♪
The smoke gathers together reforming into Aki,
“This thing is extremely durable!” is the first thing she says
“W can’t kill it quickly only by chip damage.”
…
“Damn it! I wish I could do something right now,” Claude grits his teeth,
Not under the effects of Shiryu’s ability, the young man still suffers from the strength draining
“Its ok, you’re still useful, we need you to get to the dragon, so don’t try anything reckless.” Shiryu replies unreassuringly
BANG!!
Another explosion goes off, a result of Aki again the creature tanks the fiery blast this time
“I got this chief!” Shiryu ‘tags’ himself in,
Whamp!!
He tackles the head full on
Sckash!
Shiryu digs a swipe at the black eye of it.
(My magic won’t do anything here, but the raw strength my body has)
“HAAA!”
Boorrcck!!
He slams his fist hard on the head the impact sends a small shockwave throughout it’s body
Beejoww!
“Ughnn!”
A small red blast unexpectedly fires out the creature’s eyeball catching Shiryu off-guard
Although semi-impervious to heat the force of the beam still knocks him down but–
–BANGHSHHKKK!
Aki who had been preparing, let’s off another chilling explosion halting the monster’s attack
“I got this chief.” Aki smiles at him mockingly
“I still have it!” Shiryu charges back at the thing
Crrrkck!!!
The ice is already breaking
“Hurrghh!”
Position is sharp claw like a knife, Shiryu thrusts it into the creature’s temple
“huhrrrrgghh!”
He keeps pushing hard trying to penetrate the thick skull
Whaaackk!!♪
The tentacles that had been at bay the whole time finally begins lashing out
Wahpsh!♪
Fwhip!!♪
Baddumpbunppbummpbumpp!!!♪
One grips Shiryu’s leg tossing him away, his body hits hard on the ground bumping around like a ragdoll
“Uhh!
Shiryu were out of sync!” Aki suddenly stumbles down
“Erghh”
(Gimme a second)
Whack!
Whapp!
Wackkshh!
Now more than ever the tentacles start flailing over the weakly woman
“What happened to chief!?” Claude inquires alarmed
Whacksh!
A tentacle whips the young man over
“aaahhghh.”
“I, I’m good, good” Shiryu woozily gets up
“I think we have to retreat…” Aki painfully tires to avoid the tentacles
….
“I–”
–WAMMM!
Before either of them could call for the next action and giant ghostly black fist rockets out of air smashing down on the monster
“Who?”
Shiryu looks at Claude but he is just as surprised
WHAMM!!
WHAMMM!
WHAMM!!
The fist repeatedly punches down pummelling the creature into the ground
Geaughjhh!!
It tries to fire another breath blast but the ghostly black fist slips into it’s mouth stretching it wide
GGRAUUAKJJ!
The hand buries itself into the creature,
GGRAUUAKJJ!
GGRAUUAK!
GGRAUU!
GAACK—
It keeps trying to roar the fist out but to no avail it eventually stops moving completely
….
….
“I was actually planning on stepping in earlier but you lot looked like you could handle that thing for a moment…” steeping through the shadows of the fog a one-armed cloaked man makes his presence known
Only slightly taller than Aki the short man walks with a somewhat showboat-y swagger
“Who are you?” Shiryu blinks still feeling the affects of being thrown so violently
“What are you?” the man voice wobbles frightfully
He pulls down the cloak covering his head revealing his messy black hair atop a square shaped head with a one of the pointiest noses Shiryu had ever seen, is small brown eyes glint of mischievousness
“I’m a human–”
Shiryu begins
“–Huwah!?”
But is interrupted by a gasp from Claude
“Y..you..? Your alive?
Pinoki?”
