The walls inside of were made out of an insultingly boring grey brick with no flora growing on them. Vita even licked the walls to see if there was any micro-organisms on the walls or ground, but nothing. The bricks were sterile to the point that it would be worrying. But Vita didnt seem to be disturbed by this and continued down. This continued for a long time, slowly going downwards.

Oh! Finally something to look at! A skeleton! Cue the RPG fighting music!

A single skeleton stood there with a short sword, staring into the grey wall. Vita walked up casually and started a "idle animation", waiting for the skeleton to react. It only did so when Vita decided to throw a small piece of bone on it.

The skeleton leaned to the side before turning around to look at the attacker. It moved forwards with the sword raised, ready to chop it down on Vitas form.

Vita got ready to take the hit, increasing the heartbeat. Making sure that the exoskeleton and the bones would be able to take a hit.

Then, when the sword finally swung down...

It missed.

The sword landed on the ground next to Vita, burying it inside of the bricks. It tried to pull the sword out, but lost its grip and fell on its back.

Vita didnt know whether to cry or laugh. Finally a fair one on one fight, and the first attack missed completely.

Vita continued down the dungeon after smashing the skeletons head in.

There were some more skeletons, but they all fought the same way as the first one. Swing, miss, get their skulls crushed. There wasnt much challenge when fighting these skeletons.

Finally, the tunnel stopped going one direction and split into a larger room. The larger room was lit up by torches and the ground was made out of sand instead of brick. The room itself had a lot of skeletons in it, with a large skeleton with four arms and two heads. However, it didnt seem biological nor magical. More like someone just melted the extra parts into the original skeleton without a care in the world.

Inferior design! What a disgusting skeleton, I bet your original form was just as ugly! Have at you, four armed freak! Your mother was a cheat whore who fucked everything with a dick!

Vita dashed into the crowd of skeletons, ending up right in front of the odd skeleton. To Vitas suprise, this one reacted much quicker than expected. Just as Vita was about to attack with a uppercut, the skeleton smacked Vita away with its two left hands. It wasnt strong enough to crush anything, but Vita did hit the wall. The normal skeletons shambled over with random weapons in their hands, while the larger skeleton stood there. Observing with its four eyes and two heads. The skeletons saw Vitas body laying there, propped up to the wall. Their instinct told them to kill the living, so seeing that the invader was still breathing pissed them off.

They were ready to attack with hands, swords, spears and whatever else they had. Just as they were to strike, Vita jumped up and latched onto the closest skeleton. A nearby skeleton tried to land a hit, but Vita pulled at the skeleton and caused it to get a mouthful of sword. Vita jumped from skeleton to skeleton, either hitting them or getting the other skeletons to hit each other. The larger skeleton let out a silent roar before running towards Vita, and its quick. Much quicker than the normal skeletons.

It grabbed one of the skeletons by the spine and used it as a weapon. It swung the poor skeleton at Vita who jumped of it. The two skeletons exploded into fragments that flew everywhere. That earlier swipe must have been half-assed if it could turn skeletons into dust with its bony arms. Vita landed not so gracefully on the ground, thrilled to finally get into a proper fight.

Vita took the initiative by hocking a loogie right at what seemed to be the main head. By combining the slime found on the big ants and the natural stomach acid found on just about everything Vita ate, 'The acidic slime gun prototype' was made! The loogie ball stuck to the skeletons face and vapor quickly started to rise into the air. After another silent scream, the skeleton ran towards Vita once more. Vita charged towards the skeleton as well both sides locking eyes. Just before they would collide, Vita went down low and tripped the skeleton. The skeletons center of gravity was quite high up and now that its legs were tripped up, it landed right on its melting face. Its melting face didnt seem to be able to last any longer and cracked open.

However, the purple fire didnt dissipate. Instead, it flew into the still intact skull. The skeleton moved one of its arms and ripped of the broken skull. The two spines connected into the remaining head and its hips fell of together with its legs.

Face two!? Sweet, just like a proper boss fight! Maybe Ill even get a cool weapon or something else? Like a bone greatsword? Come on, lets continue fighting!

Vita tried to provoke the skeleton by throwing sand at it. This seemed to work, as it stared hatefully with its fiery eyes at Vita. Now on all fours, it was much quicker than before. It copied the moves Vita used before, latching on to Vita and then biting down with everything it could. It aimed right at Vitas throat as well. First there was a slight crack from the teeth in the skeletons mouth, then the crack from Vitas exoskeleton.

It finally managed to make a proper wound on its enemy. A new corpse would mean more corpses for its dark lord to use. Maybe it would get to controll its body to get even stronger!

While thinking about this, the skeleton didnt notice that Vita seemed completely fine. Even having enough time to check an imaginary clock, both on the body and on the cellular level. With a quick pierce, the skeleton was killed by a nail through the skull.

Vita stood above the corpse of a corpse.

Heh, nothing personal kid. But you are 10 billion lightyears too young to challenge me!
