Rachael: "A fifteen-? Wait, what?"
Lezard: "Behind-?" *He slowly turned around in suspense, suddenly shaking his bottom in fear.* "How upsetting, everyone.. Run for your lives!"
Rachael: "I-Imposs-" *She gasped with widening eyes, staring at an enormous humanoid rock figure.*
Twortz: *She trembled with buckling knees, frozen in fear.* "W-What.. Wh-What is.. What...?!"
Lezard: "Oh dear! I'm not an offensive fighter!"
*Lezard sarcastically whimpered and hobbled behind Rachael and Twortz, intensely staring at the stone figure.*
Lezard: "It's unusual that a Scoldrant of this size is this close to a city, and out in the open too!-" *He spoke in concern, as if he knew he was in a bad situation.*
Rachael: "S-So that's a Scoldrant?"
Twortz: (I-I'm the oldest.. I'm the most responsible.. It's my responsibility to ensure nothing happens to Rachael.. Even if it's not the real one-) *She shut her eyes, trying to control her fear.*
Scoldrant: "Gnoar!" *Two rocks opened on its face, allowing it to release a deep raspy roar.*
Rachael: "Should we retreat to the city?"
Lezard: (She's a sound thinker-)
Twortz: "We probably won't make it in time." *She spoke with her eyes shut.*
Lezard: "We should try. Rock based Scoldrants are usually slow-"
Scoldrant: *It stepped forward, causing the ground to rumble.* "Gnaor!" *It raised its arm made of large boulders, causing streams of sand to pour from the crevices.*
Rachael: "Whatever it is, it's about to strike!" *She raised her fists and stood in a battle-ready pose.*
Lezard: "Do either of you know any water based Azure Bursts?!"
Twortz: *She opened her eyes and reached over her shoulder, grabbing the frying pan in determination.* "You two, run back to the city."
Lezard: "I squeal over your determination, but you won't be able to even touch that Scoldrant with physical attacks alone."
Scoldrant: "Gnaorrr!" *It punched towards the cluttered group at incredible speeds.*
Lezard: "Wha-?!"
Rachael: *She swayed to the side and watched the massive arm crash into the ground, exploding a dirt pulse around it.* "Eek-"
Scoldrant: "Gnaor!" *It opened its hand in the ground and the dirt pulse pushed Rachael and Lezard back, causing them to tumble onto the ground.*
Twortz: *The pulse blew past her, as if nothing happened.* "Huh?"
Rachael: "Tssk, everyone okay?!" *She gritted her teeth and quickly stood back up, raising her fists.*
Lezard: "Wha-?! It hurts, I think I broke my uterus!" *He squealed in a sarcastic-like manner, holding onto his knee.*
Twortz: *She waddled up to Rachael with a loss of breath, raising the frying pan to her face.* "Are we crazy, or is this a dream?"
Rachael: "Beats me. All I know, is that thing is real."
Twortz: *She ran towards the Scoldrant and raised her arm, screaming with an echoing voice.* "Take this!"
Rachael: (Why did her voice echo like that-?)
Twortz: "Hooee!" *She hit the frying pan on the Scoldrant's arm, causing a loud metallic screech to burst the stone into the air.*
Rachael: "What-?!"
Lezard: "Jinkies! What technique was that-?!"
Twortz: *She wailed in pain and dropped the frying pan, instantly holding onto her wrist in agony.* "It hurts-"
Scoldrant: "Gnrraor!" *It slowly lifted its leg and suddenly kicked Twortz, blasting her across the road-like path.*
Rachael: "Twortz!-"
Lezard: "Holy fish-cakes!-" *He gasped in fright, watching Twortz hit the ground, making awkward spirals in the air.*
Twortz: "Kerrh." *She slid on her side and slowly came to a stop, wheezing in pain.*
Rachael: "Why you!" *She frowned in a protective-like manner and sprinted towards the Scoldrant at an incredible speed.* "Hah!"
*Rachael punched the Scoldrant on the abdomen and listened to her knuckles crack, causing her to scream in pain.*
Rachael: "My fist!-"
Scoldrant: "Gnaor!" *It swept its arm at Rachael, attempting to hit her across the head.*
Rachael: "Tssk-" *She quickly bent back and dropped to the ground, watching the arm sweep over her face, causing her hair to sway to one side.*
Lezard: "You can do it, little monster!" *He waved his arm, trying to boost Rachael's morale.*
Rachael: *She jumped back up and spun around, kicking the Scoldrant on its side.* "Argh!" (It feels like I'm just hitting the ground-)
*Rachael quickly back flipped away from the Scoldrant, avoiding a sweeping kick.*
Lezard: *He noticed her skirt sway in the breeze, revealing her tight gym-like shorts underneath.* "Not looking." *He squealed and looked away, quickly wiping his sudden nose bleed.*
*Rachael looked down, noticing the frying pan shimmer in the sunlight.*
Rachael: (The frying pan!) *She shouted in thought and sprinted towards the Scoldrant.*
Lezard: "Let's flee already!-"
Scoldrant: "Gnaor!" *It formed a boulder-like fist and swayed back, punching directly towards Rachael.*
Lezard: "Watch out!"
Rachael: *She leant forward and slid on the ground, grabbing the frying pan along the way.* "Hah!"
Scoldrant: "Gnaor-" *It lunged forward, watching its arm miss Rachael.*
Rachael: *She jumped into striking distance and hit the frying pan on the Scoldrant's chest.* "Ah?"
Lezard: "Nothing?"
Rachael: "It hardly made a noise-"
Scoldrant: *It grabbed Rachael around the waist and lifted her up.* "Gnaor!" *It applied pressure, causing Rachael to drop the frying pan.*
Lezard: "No!"
Twortz: "Tssk." *She gritted her teeth and grunted with a struggle, trying to lift herself off the ground.* (I can't-)
Rachael: (I can't breathe-)
Scoldrant: "Gnaor!" *It swayed to the side and rocked its entire body, throwing Rachael high into the air.*
Lezard: *He looked up, gasping in shock.* (At that height!-) "No! We just became besties!-"
Twortz: "Rachael Taylor!"
Rachael: *She started to descend, causing her to stare at the solid path with widening eyes.* "Ahhh!"
Lezard: "I can't watch!" *He quickly shut his eyes, looking away.*
Rachael: *She screamed in shock, suddenly touching her throat.* (I feel sick!-)
*A rock pillar suddenly erupted out of ground and blasted into the air, smashing into Rachael.*
Rachael: "Kah-?" *She coughed on the rock and started to slowly descend, before violently hitting the ground.*
*The rock pillar underneath Rachael shattered across the ground, catching Lezard's attention.*
Lezard: (She's alive?!) *He thought with a smile.*
Rachael: *She coughed, lying in the middle of a dirt cloud.* "Th-That hurt-"
Twortz: (What did I just witness?! A rock just shot up and hit Rachael, effectively cushioning her fall!)
Scoldrant: "Gnaor!"
Lezard: *He looked to each side, noticing Twortz and Rachael on the ground.* (I don't have any choice but to fight, don't I-?)
*A green snake slithered behind the stone Scoldrant and struck into its shoulder, suddenly wrapping itself around the Scoldrant's body.*
Lezard: "N-Not another one!" *He stood up and quickly hobbled up to Rachael with his head lowered.* "Are you okay, little monster? You were thrown up pretty high-"
Rachael: "Yeah. I'm more hurt from that freak boulder flying up from the ground-"
Scoldrant: "Gnoar!" *It roared, as the snake applied pressure, cracking some of its rocks.*
Twortz: (That's the largest snake I've ever seen in my life!-)
?????: "Finish it, Arthur." *A woman in platinum armour spoke to the snake, as if she was the owner.*
Arthur: *It slithered its head above the Scoldrant and looked down, openin
g its massive jaw.* "HYDRO CANNONss."
Twortz: (The thing can talk?!)
*The snake spoke with a hiss and a sudden stream of high pressured water blasted into the Scoldrant, exploding it into violent pieces of rock.*
Rachael: "Ah-?" *Splashes of water and rock blew past her, cutting her across the face.*
Arthur: *It relaxed its body, leaving a pile of wet rock where the Scoldrant stood.* "Hssst."
?????: "That's a good boy." *She spoke with a confident smirk and walked towards Rachael, keeping a fixated stare on the city.*
Rachael: *She noticed the woman approach the snake, causing her to gasp in a protective-like manner.* "Watch out! The snake will-"
Lezard: *He quickly covered Rachael's mouth, causing her to squirm in confusion.* "Don't say a word. She's a captain." *He whispered in Rachael's ear.*
Rachael: *She continued to squirm, grabbing onto Lezard's wrist.* "...-"
Lezard: "Trust me-" *He gently lowered his arm, noticing Rachael keeping to herself.*
Rachael: "Who is that? Won't the snake attack her?" *She whispered to Lezard.*
Rachael: "Hey?" *She looked at Lezard, waiting for his response.*
Lezard: "I fear that could be Nancy."
Rachael: "Nancy?" *She watched the snake suddenly spiral around Nancy, causing her to gasp.* (It is going to attack her-?!)
Lezard: *He watched Arthur slither behind Nancy, as if it was keeping watch on her surroundings.* (Having control of something so powerful.. Frightening.)
Nancy: "Let's see what is such a threat." *She spoke on her breath and stared at the tower in the distance with a widening smirk.*
Arthur: "Hssst." *He swayed his neck and slithered behind Nancy, leaving an S-shaped trail behind him from the previous Scoldrant's remains.*
Nancy: "Yes.." *She glanced at Arthur with a smirk as if she could understand his hisses.* "Sending one of the top three warriors.. Whoever it is, they'll be dead before they even utter a word-"
Twortz: *She looked at Nancy.* "Th-Thank you-"
Nancy: *She paused and instantly glared at Twortz, causing Arthur to hiss for intimidation.* "You dare speak to me?"
Twortz: "I-I-?"
Lezard: "I fear, that's Nancy the feeder."
Rachael: "Why is she called-?"
Nancy: "Are you hungry, Arthur?"
Arthur: "Hsssst." *It slithered its tongue at Twortz as if it was inspecting her.*
Rachael: "Crud." *She spoke in realisation.*
Nancy: *She heard the sounds of a faint siren come from the city, causing her to sigh in an annoyed-like manner.* "No feeding today, Arthur. Work calls."
Arthur: "Tsssskt."
Nancy: *She started to walk towards the city and clicked her fingers, causing Arthur to suddenly disintegrate into a swirl of blue particles.* "Bwohohoho."
*Nancy laughed to herself and played with a small blue orb in her hand as if it was a baseball.*
Nancy: "Let's see what this threat is all about.." *She licked her lips and walked into the city.*
Twortz: "..." *She stared into space with a petrified look on her face.*
Lezard: "Little monster?" *He stood up and pulled Rachael's arm up, helping her to her feet.*
Rachael: "What.. Just happened?"
Lezard: (These poor girls are traumatised.. It's almost like it's their first Scoldrant encounter-)
Rachael: "Harh..?" *She whimpered, covering her mouth with watering eyes.*
Lezard: *He stepped back, startled by Rachael's sudden sadness.* "I-It's okay?" *He spoke in a serious-like manner, hugging her for comfort.*
Twortz: *She awkwardly stood up and wheezed, collapsing back to her knees.* (My ribs? I can feel it touching my lungs!) *She purposely took short, quick breaths.*
Rachael: "Ash, where are you?!" *She started to cry in Lezard's arms.* "Where are you, Ashton?!"
----------
*Trevour stood behind Thirty-Three and Tara, listening to their conversation.*
Tara: "I will try to extract information from the Scoldrant User one last time before killing him."
Twenty-Three: (What-?)
Thirty-Three: "Excellent."
Twenty-Three: (Excellent?!)
Thirty-Three: "What about the other prisoner?"
Tara: "I will use my Ougi against her and demand information before she runs out of her life Neurons."
Thirty-Three: "Understood. Twenty-Three, go fetch our prisoners immediately."
Twenty-Three: "Yes.." *He turned around and started to walk out, causing Thirty-Three to grunt.*
Thirty-Three: "No boss today?"
Twenty-Three: "..." *He continued to walk out.*
Tara: "You say you wanted to become a vice-captain one day?"
Thirty-Three: "Yes!" *He spoke with enthusiasm, quickly looking at Tara.*
Tara: *She smirked evil-like.* "In an interrogation, never have the person ask you questions. It shows weakness."
Thirty-Three: "Got it!"
----------
Nathan: "Errr?" *He groaned into consciousness, finding himself chained back in his cell.* "Where-?"
Luna: *She slowly looked into Nathan's general direction.* "It was Nathan, right?"
Nathan: "Nathan? Who's that?"
Luna: "So, I finally talk to you and you're a stupid idiot."
Nathan: "Whoa, calm down!" *He frowned.* "I don't even know where I am!"
Luna: "You said we're in some sorrow wateva?"
Nathan: "Sorrowprax?" *He looked up, sounding confused.*
Luna: "Wateva-"
Twenty-Three: "Don't mind him, madam."
Luna: "Aye? W-Who's there?"
Twenty-Three: "He's suffering from temporary Neuron damage."
Luna: "What?"
Twenty-Three: "Memory loss."
Nathan: "Don't talk like I'm not even here."
Luna: "You here to take me?" *She spoke with low morale, as if she knew the experience would be bad.*
Twenty-Three: *He looked down, staring at his armour.* "Yes.."
Luna: *She closed her eyes, trying not to cry.* "What did I do to deserve this? I just want to go home."
Twenty-Three: "..." *He formed fists and stepped forward, placing his hand on the lock.*
Luna: "I want to take a bath, watch a movie.. Eat junk food-" *She listened to the cell doors slide open, causing her to whimper.*
Nathan: "..." *He watched Trevour step into the cell in a hazy-like manner.*
Twenty-Three: "Where are you really from?"
Luna: "..."
Twenty-Three: "Madam?"
Luna: "Aye?" *She looked up as if she didn't know Trevour was talking to her.*
Twenty-Three: "Where are you really from?"
Luna: "Gah, from Earth! How can you-?"
Twenty-Three: "My superiors will be continuing their interrogation."
Nathan: "Great..." *He spoke as if he didn't care.*
Twenty-Three: "But I'm afraid the situation is a little more temperamental than that.. You will be sentenced to death like your friend."
Luna: (K-Kerry.. Anne?)
Nathan: *He grunted with widening eyes.* (No.. I can't.. I can't!-) "No! Don't you warriors have any sense of respect?!"
Twenty-Three: "Please relax yourself, sir. I happen to agree with your point of view."
Luna: "Aye?"
Nathan: "Huh?"
Twenty-Three: *He looked down, sighing with emotion.* "We need to leave. I'm not a person that goes against rules, but I can't stand by and watch innocent people get killed."
Luna: "..." *She smirked with hope and silently scanned across the room in a blind-like manner.*
Nathan: "But, how? Not many people have broken out of Sorrowprax."
Luna: "It wouldn't be that hard."
Twenty-Three: "On the contrary. It took the Consultant's second strongest number one warrior to break out of the walls."
Luna: "Number, wat?"
Twenty-Three: "It's too temperamental to explain right now."
Nathan: "So, top shot. What's your plan?" *He spoke with low morale, as if he wasn't expecting any results."
Twenty-Three: "It may be forbidden to use Rostical out of the single digits.. But, I was born with the ability."
Luna: "Rostickal?"
Nathan: *He silently stared at Trevour and looked at him from top to bottom, as if he was judging his appearance.* (I don't judge people on their title, but, I'm meant to believe he knows how to use Rostical-?)
