~Vhooooooom~
|A streak of white light flashed over a campsite, waking up it's three inhabitants from their deep slumber. The Sun had set a few hours ago, and the ground laid covered in a slim sheet of snow. The first one to wake up was a fighter named Jake from a nearby town's adventurer's guild, he was escorting the other two, who had also been part from the guild to a recently discovered snow ruins in order to explore it. The loud noise startled the warrior, who instinctively got into a fighting stance upon jolting awake. "W-what was that...." he'd question, his two comrades beginning to lazily drag themselves out of their sleeping bags. "Sheesh Jake... its 3 am..... cant you hold off your training for just a few more hours?..." Asked Hainen, one of the explorers who'd set out on the journey to explore the snowy ruins. Yuta, the last of the three slipped out of his bag and messily jumped to his feet. "-yaaaaaaaawn- yeah..... what uh, Hainen said... we gotta get back to the guild within the time limit or-" he'd be cut off by a large explosion in the distance. The three's jaws dropped, their shocked expressions beginning to show as the light from the explosion faded.|
|"..... Guys.... lets go see what that was.." proposed Jake after an extended silence. the other two were hesitant, but Jake convinced them to follow after him. After a short walk, the three spotted a fire between the trees, which was presumably were the explosion had occurred. The three approached with caution, the two explorers staying a considerable amount of distance behind Jake. slowly, they'd push through the branches and see a flaming orb stuck in the midst of the flames, a large crater surrounding the pod. "shit... somebody might be in that!" yelled Jake, his body dashing forward as he thrust his hand out, a yell erupting from his lips as a shock wave took form, pushing the flames off of the pod. he took this chance to rapidly open the pod before the flames could make their way back onto the spacecraft. To his surprise however, the pod was already empty. "what.... was is just an empty ship? maybe an escape pod that malfunctioned somewhere in space and landed here coincidentally?...." he'd theorize, quickly calling back to his two comrades- "Hainen!, Yuta!, seems like i was just overreacting again huh!" he chuckled, looking back at the forest area where his two friends Should've been.....|
|".... guys.... where'd ya go?...." he called out, a sense of fear slowly washing over him. "GUYS!.... WHERE ARE YA!!" he called out once more, his senses now heightened with the disappearance of his two comrades. He'd heard a branch break, immediately turning to face the sound. there were two silhouettes, their bodies obscured by an unusual darkness. he'd assumed that it was his two friends and said- "sheesh guys.... you scared me for a second there...." he'd sigh, his expression quickly changing from frightened to relieved as he begun approaching the silhouettes. "Who... is.. guy?" someone asked, their voice metallic and childlike. Jake stopped in his tracks almost immediately. his eyes widened, the fire had spread enough so that the silhouettes were no longer in darkness, being lifted into the in front of a creature was his two comrades. his horrified face observed their bodies, noticing the holes within their stomachs before hearing a vacuum-like noise, and watching as his two friends were pulled
into a pink creature's stomach.|
|he stood bewildered for a few seconds, the creature eating his friends suddenly enraging him. he'd charge forward, another scream erupting forth as he disappeared, using the afterimage technique to appear behind the pink entity. the creature had apparently not been able to follow his movement, or at least that's what he thought. he burst forth and kicked at the creatures head, causing it to bend to the side. he'd fly back onto the ground, getting into a fighting stance as the creature stood upright once more. ".. Annoying..." was the only word he'd utter in response, he himself disappearing, reappearing in front of a surprised Jake as his fist burst forth, placing itself firmly in the mans gut before separating itself as the man flew backwards and crashed through a few trees.|
|the man stopped himself from crashing into another tree by activating his flight ability, stopping him midair as he took a deep breath. "d-did he just use afterimage..... no.. that couldn't be..." he thought, before moving forward, a ki enveloping him as he flew. he'd soon appear before the creature once more, but this time the creature wouldn't stand idly by. "Stop...." he'd mutter in his metallic voice, his eyes staring directly at Jake's before unleashing a great amount of ki and activating some minor magics. Jake suddenly halted midair, not by his own will but by someone else's. "w-what?! whats happening to me!!" he'd yell, his arms shaking slightly from the force he was exerting trying to move. The creature begun to walk forward, his mouth slowly opening and emitting a vacuum-like sound.|
|Jake immediately recalled the moment when his friends were devoured, remembering the exact sound that the creature had emitted at the time. he begun to panic, his emotions became jumbled, he didn't know what to do. his anger and resolve quickly begun to take over however. "im not dieing.. not like this.. AND NOT UNTIL I'VE AVENGED THOSE TWO!!!" he yelled, his power tripling as his inner human strength was unleashed. his power level burst over the 80% limit of Pip's stun technique and he burst forth, his fists laying a rapid and devastating barrage on pips face. "YOU SICK FREAK!, ILL MAKE YOU PAAAAY!!" he said, continuing to randomly yell as he pushed Pip back. Pip was not one to take an attack like that lightly however. Pip himself would let out an enraged scream, his body beginning to be covered in pink ki. by this point, the man had managed to control himself and jumped back, cautious of the Creatures sudden attack after a while of being hit. "AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" he yelled, the ki surrounding him beginning to generate ki balls and shoot them in every direction at random seemingly. The man, stunned by his use of ki, quickly recovered and jumped back, deflecting any ki blasts coming his way before taking shelter behind a tree, waiting for the barrage to cease before attacking once again. Suddenly, his head would be thrust through the trees bark and his body thrown back a couple of feet. the barrage had suddenly ceased and an enraged pink demon had burst forward, its body levitating off of the ground as he threw yet another punch at the human, knocking him further back into another tree. Jake bounced off of the tree, and threw himself into the air as he begun to fly once more, pip following in close pursuit. Pip quickly closed the distance, kicking at the man only to find that it was an afterimage, with Jake appearing above pip and slamming his elbow into the pink creatures back, sending him flying into the ground. Pip slowly stood, but Jake had already closed the distance. he shot forth and struck with the speed of a cheetah (metaphor), he strikes putting dents in pips skin-like armor and sending him flying once more.
|".....Annoying.." The creature muttered once more, his face still expressionless as he looked over at Jake after stopping himself. he'd burst forth once again, beginning a furious exchange of fists between the two warriors. large booms erupted and the force of their battle knocked trees to the sides. Jake had gotten the upper hand however and sent Pip flying back once again. The battle, ever since its start had stayed in the man's favor, and pip realized this. he knew he wouldn't win a prolonged fight but realized that such a great boost of power would definitely tire out his opponent, and so he begun to put his acting skills into play. thrusting his arm out awkwardly, he'd lower his defenses and let the man strike it, breaking his arm almost instantly. the man was slightly surprised, but realized that it was an opportunity and begun to lay a barrage of fists on Pip once more.|
|Jake's fists plunged themselves into Pip's body, slowly tearing away at his arms, legs and torso. he'd knock Pip around furiously, his rage slowly disappearing completely as he made on last kick, knocking pip's broken body through multiple trees. he'd look onward shortly, before raising his arms up, a ball of ki gathering in between them. he looked at pip one last time, his arms and legs torn off from the severe beating Jake had given him. he then yelled- "GO TO HELL DEMON!!" launching the ball of ki at pip. Pip however, activated a hidden latent reserve of power, his arcosian durability saving him from most of the ki's damage. he acted as if the blast had killed him however, twitching twice before laying motionless.|
|Jake stared at the broken, "dead" body of pip, the creature who had killed his two buddies. He'd quickly feel a searing pain, probably from his sudden burst of energy. he staggered forward, noting in his mind that he had to make it back to his hometown as quick as possible before he passed out in the snow, so that he could report to the guild about the nights events. his ki flare up as he rocketed through the air. Pip's eyes watch closely however..... Strange bulges in the being's skin appeared, slowly replacing his lost body parts. with huge splurges of water and gas, his body was now completely reformed, though now extremely weakened. He'd look over at the snowy ground nearby, where the warrior had just taken off from and noticed a green bean laying there. his stomach rumbled, the two humans had not been enough to soothe his appetite. he walked over, his movement weak and slow as he picked it up, gulping it down. "yum..." he muttered, his energy instantly replenishing itself, his hunger satisfied. |
|Pip recalled the beating that lowly human had given him, and his anger begun to swell. His ki flared up as he crossed his arms and slowly floated into the air, before following after the weakened human, making sure to stay out of his site until the time was right. an hour or two passed, and finally, the human touch landed at the gates of a village, his body being dragged inside. Pip landed nearby and watched from the trees. a few villagers flocked around jake to see what the commotion was about, a big burly man walked out of a nearby hut and pushed everybody away, apparently examining and talking to jake. "It.. it killed them... Yuta... Hainen... they're gone.. but don't w-worry.... i managed to avenge them.. its dead now..." he muttered triumphantly, the burly man shushing him and telling him to rest. Everyone seemed to be confused and grieving, Pip saw the opportunity and lunged forth, paralyzing the burly man first, who'd seemed to be the most dangerous one so far with his telepathic proportions attack. he wasted no time in gobbling up the large man, his power rising as he did the same to many others around him, jake looked onward in horror, yelling- "NO!!!, STOP!!" which in turn, attracted pips attention to jake. strangely enough, pip smiled and he begun to walk forward towards him. jake broke into a panic, he recalled the earlier incident, yelling things like "how are you still alive" or "no, this cant be!!". Jake attempted to call forth that latent power, but his body ached. sudden waves of pain befell jake as he struggled to stay conscious. pip was now upon him, his mouth wide open as a vacuum like sound emitted from it, and jake was swallowed.
From there on, it was a massacre. there were strong fighters sure, but none held a candle to the monster known as pip. he slaughtered and ate the entire village, escalating in strength, and afterwards he went around, collecting these strange coins he'd found amongst the dead. "pretty...." he muttered as he walked off into the morning sunrise, a wasted village left behind him.
