Eivarlost:
Jab, punch, roundhouse kick, side thrust kick, knee, butterfly kick = You have been defeated!
SlatsGraphics:
Not if I use my Super Awesome Chocolaty Fudge-coated Mega Super Dodge! It's hard to time, but then I only take 10 damage and get a chance to counter-attack.
I counter-attack with a summon. I bring forth my Tiny Tiki Toy and Red Octopus to defend me. Now I use my turn to start my Legendary Ninjitsu: 27 Pianos! In two turns it will activate, causing over 9,000 damage, but draining my stamina 3 pts.
Eivarlost:
Lol! Well I can dodge your attacks with my lightning speed, slamming you with my powerful fists! Dodge, fury kick! Butterfly kick! Swing in behind and spinning back kick! As you topple over, I roll to the side of you and put a foot to the face! Of course, then I lose my balance and topple over backwards. =/
SlatsGraphics:
I quickly roll over twice and jump up to catch you before you land on a bed of spikes.
Then I toss you 2,792 feet in the air. I use my Amazing Acrobatic Aerial Assault Combo. Flying kick, Uppercut, 17 Rapid-Fire Jabs, and a Leg Grab Suplex Throw.
You hit the ground.
I quickly sail down to deliver my final blow. A Super Strength Meteor Impact Knuckle-Busting Smash...
Eivarlost:
..But just in time I roll out of the way, leap off of a wall close behind and deliver a butterfly kick straight to the head before rolling off to the side. I then smash a side thrust to the knee, bending it backwards! As you topple over, I put a kick to your side, bruising you badly. Then as I turn to go, I trip over a pebble on the ground... =/ Uh-oh!
SlatsGraphics:
Darn, that kick to my side really hurt! And that kick was powerful enough to damage my automation leg!
I pop my leg back into place for a crude fix, and slowly walk over to you while holding my side.
As you scurry to get up, I stab my Wolverine-like claws into your ankle, and proceed to swing you around.
Wall, wall, floor... Then I toss you straight up, and when you come back to my head height, I kick you with all my force, sending you flying through the brick wall roughly 10 yards away...
Still crippled and holding my side in pain, I send my Tiny Tiki Toy in to assess the damage...
I don't want to leave myself vulnerable this time if I can help it...
Eivarlost:
Clutching my bleeding, broken ankle, I attempt to raise myself up. Wait a second! My ankle isn't bleeding; I forgot, I'm now a doll! Of course, my foot is all the way on the other side of the room.... Slick (that is my snake), go get that for me! As the snake slithers to get my foot, I hop towards you and throw a slash your way with my...MACHETE! It slices your shoulder, leaving a deep gash and sending excruciating pain up and down your arm. Just then when I'm about to make a downward cut on you head, Slick trips me up and fervently starts sowing my foot back on with his sharp fangs.
SlatsGraphics:
At first I think this is an opportunity to attack, But that snake could still turn around to attack and heal your leg later... I decide to take this time to heal myself.
I summon a plant which grows from my leg. It repairs my leg to a great extent while slightly restoring my health with it's photosynthesis. I also bandage my weak arm myself.
You finish your repairs at the same time as I. You jump up as I step forward. Clash! We're gridlocked.
Your machete locked in my claws, our hands grasping one another, fighting to improve our situation.
Usually, I would win a battle of pure strength due to my greater size and mussel mass, but my arm injury evens the odds.
We stare at each other for 30 seconds, neither one wanting to back down.
Suddenly, the ground trembles beneath our feet, and a rumbling is heard in the distance...
Eivarlost:
As we hear the strange rumbling, we lower our weapons and turn, curious as to what's going on. Next thing we know, we are being showered with rocks of all different sizes, some harmless pebbles, others enormous boulders able to squash us in a second. We run for cover, but there is not to be had! Just then, an 80 ft tall lava monster bursts out of the ground we were just standing on but a minute ago. Enraged, he points a flaming finger our way, hot lava dripping from his finger tips, and says in a booming voice.....
SlatsGraphics:
"Blaarg! Glorgol bo lorban gragsnop! Blorgan ba glork bleepen Lorval Snorq! Glomp bo bornak!"
My Tiny Tiki Toy translates: "Infidels! How dare you disturb my slumber! You have incurred the wrath of Lorval Snorq! You shall die, worthless cur!"
In an instant, giant pillars of lava and fire come spiraling up through the ground around us.
We each do our own variations of flying spins, leaps, and somersaults to avoid them.
After a minute or so, Lorval Snorq gives up on this, as our agility seems to great for this method of attack.
During the brief pause, we stop, kneeling on the ground, turn to look at each other and nod simultaneously. We'll have to postpone our fight, we both know we'll need to team up to defeat him.
I have my red octopus quickly cast a water barrier on both of us. We watch as a thin layer of water covers our entire character. Now we are able to strike Lorval Snorq without taking damage. It also gives us a slight resistance to fire damage.
We start sprinting straight at Lorval Snorq as he summons a 50 ft lava wave.
As it moves towards us, we keep running straight ahead, each with our own, almost unified, thought on how to take him down...
Eivarlost:
You and I split off, you to the right, I to the left. Lorval Snorq, stupid monster that he is, tries to look at both of us at the same time causing his eyes to look both ways at once. Laughing at the monster's silly face, I begin to laugh which causes me not to notice the fireball coming my way.
Soon the entire bubble is consumed, but not to worry. With one click of a button, my body is no longer made of cloth. Now it is completely made of flames! The only thing that can harm me now is if one of those flying boulders crushes me and of course the monster, but at least I don't have to fear the fire.
You are now far ahead of me battling the monster and dodging it's strikes. I'm missing out on all the fun! I dive aside as a boulder nearly crushes me. Finally I make it up to the monster and begin striking with all my strength! Chunks of hot rock begins falling off of the roaring monster's right foot. Lorval Snorq looks down at me and raises its fist to strike, but as it does so, you appear up on its left shoulder and begin hacking at its ear. The monster, now concerned more about its ear than crushing me,.........
SlatsGraphics:
...redirects his fist in my direction. I jump off the side of his face in an elegant back flip. I dodge his fist entirely, but my bandanna is set ablaze.
When I land, kneeling on the ground, my red octopus sacrifices himself to extinguish the flames that are beginning to engulf me.
By doing so, my bandanna becomes The Halo of Blue Flames, giving me the ability to add an icy fire, similar to liquid nitrogen, to all of my attacks. I also get The Cloak of Flash Flames. I can now make occasional, quick, "flash steps" to move around.
I glance over at you as you slice a huge chunk out of Lorval Snorq's foot. He roars in pain and raises his arms way above his head. He's about to crush everything around him, and you can't move in time!
I flash step to your location and pick you up. Then I flash step away just in time as the ground around Lorval Snorq's feet is obliterated and replaced with a pool of lava.
When we land, I protect you from the shrapnel of molten rock heading towards us. I suffer a couple minor cuts and burns on my back and arm, and one deep gash on my foot.
Wincing, I turn around and assist you in returning to the fight. I lay on my back and have you stand on my good foot, then I launch you as you jump off, sending you soaring towards Lorval Snorq's unsuspecting face...
Eivarlost:
I land directly on Lorval Snorq's face, my left hand shoved up his nose. As I pull my lava snot covered fist out of his nose, my face contorts disgustedly. Well, could be worse. I begin slicing at Lorval Snorq's face with my machete. He looks at me with crossed eyes and begins to scream "guba nish, guba nish! Slimk Roesh! guba nish!"
Your tiki warrior translates: Get it off, get it off! Slimk Roesh! Get it off." As he finishes with his translation another lava monster burst out of the earth, showering us with rocks. He stretches and yawns as Lorval Snorq screams. I, being right above Lorval Snorq's mouth, attempt to cover my aching ears and at the same time hold on, which is becoming quite impossible. I begin to slip.....
SlatsGraphics:
While you were attacking Lorval Snorq, I attempted to repair the gash on my foot.
I was nearly finished when I hear my Tiny Tiki Toy translate something... Slimk Roesh?
Suddenly the ground in front of me explodes, and out pops another lava monster!
The distraction interrupts my spell, and my foot feels like it's set on fire. I look down and see blackened, clawed feet where mine once were. There is a searing pain on the outside of my feet, but they seem repaired otherwise.
I look up and see you are about to fall... My feet will have to wait...
I leap from the ground in your direction, Foom! I feel incredible strength from my jump. The incomplete spell must have improved my foot strength. If only the pain would reside...
I use my cold fire technique on my claws and combine it with my flash step in order to pierce right through Slimk Roesh's right arm. Then I stab Lorval Snorq in his chest and hang from him, in order to catch you as you fall.
When you are secure in my grasp, I let us fall, using my claws all the way down Lorval Snorq's leg to slow our decent.
We land right between the two lava beasts. My feet still hurt, so I kneel down, you standing with your back to mine.
I'm thinking: How are we going to get out of this mess?...
Eivarlost:
We managed to slip off Lorval Snorq's face just in time before Slimk Roesh slams his hand into Lorval Snorq's face in an attempt to smash me. Lorval Snorq flies backwards and lands straight into a mountain, causing a deep gash in the side of it. The mountain begins to shake violently. Wait a second. I squint my eyes. That's no mountain; that's a....VOLCANO! I grab your wrist and take off in the opposite direction.
The lava monsters, meanwhile, have forgotten all about us and are enjoying their hot bath, splashing each other.
I continue to run, partly dragging you because of your wounded feet. Over the hills, and through the forest, past the creek, I run, but the hot magma stream just keeps coming, coming, coming. We MUST escape, but with your wounded foot..... I can't just leave 'im.... Suddenly I remember. I snatch out my small figurine, just barely 3 inches long, and summon my closest friend, Blaize, the fire bird.
Within seconds, we are being scooped up onto the back of Blaize, who swoops up towards the sky only moments before the ground where we had just stood is flooded with magma. I hug Blaize's neck and whisper my thanks to him over and over. Good old Blaize. How many times had he risked his life to save me? Far too many to count....
Blaize flies towards a large field, preparing to land. I glance back at you. "You ok?" I ask....
SlatsGraphics:
When you turn around, I am nowhere to be seen.
Instead, there is a note written in a sloppy handwriting:
"Eivarlost,
Thank you for saving me. I am forever in your debt.
That does not, however, change the fact that we are rivals.
I am leaving now to train both my body and my mind. I suggest you do the same.
I know that we will meet again someday, but whether we will be allies, or enemies, only fate can decide.
Take care, and good luck on your next venture.
-SlatsGraphics"
Standing on a tree branch, far away from harm, I watch as you finish my letter.
You glance around for a moment.
Then, taking command of Blaize, you fly off towards the sunrise.
I flash step away, heading down my own path.
~TO BE CONTINUED~
