Enforcers

Down in the Nest, the sounds of combat could be heard echoing out to the black sky that was up above.

Inside of the Nest, eleven people fought back the Bestia Macht, each of them giving it their all, as the ferocious creatures did the same! It was a back and forth battle that didn"t seem to be letting up anytime soon...

"Ha!" Hero yelled out elbowing a Baron and slamming its head straight into the ground. Seconds later the boy"s foot shot out launching the creature away from him as he slid back. He raised his arm up about to do something but stopped. "Probably shouldn"t use my Big-Arm-Strike... Wouldn"t want to break my arm again... Especially this early on..." The boy let out a simple and sheepish laugh as he shrugged. "Guess I"ll just stick with regular Balloon attacks, and just punch them really, really hard..."

Several Baron"s all jumped into the air intending to crush Hero, however, the boy was to fast for that basic attack. He inhaled as his entire body inflated up like a balloon getting bigger and bigger as he blew up. Then he used his belly to bounce forward avoiding the strike from above.

As soon as he landed, Hero deflated as he compressed his body down. His feet stabbed into the ground as he jumped back, over to where the monsters were, now that they have landed! He flew through the air, as he threw himself at them and headb.u.t.ted straight into one of the beast sending it flying straight into the rest of the horde.

A Baron with ma.s.sive clawed hands jumped forward swinging at Hero and slashing into the boy"s right arm, which he had used to block that attack, Hero let out a gasp of startled pain as he kicked his leg out slamming it into the monster"s side so hard it threw the beast through the air smacking it straight into the wall.

Hero slid back holding his arm. It thankfully wasn"t too injured, but d.a.m.n did it hurt. "Oww..." Hero said hissing out in slight pain. He took a deep breath as he deactivated all of his Attributes... Steam rose up from the wound as it bubbled, and then magically closed leaving nothing behind, not even a scar. "Whoa... Was it always this tiering to heal my body?" Hero asked as he fell to his knees. He breathed heavily as he looked up finding more Barons were running towards him. "Well... No time to rest?" He sighed out. "I"ll worry about this turn of events later?"

Meanwhile at another point in the Nest Ken easily stepped back avoiding a swipe from a Bestia Macht as she slashed at it with her sheathed weapon slamming the end of it straight into the monster"s head. Its skull was caved in as she jumped away avoiding several strikes from the other monsters.

Ken smirked slightly as she easily avoided another strike. Red energy seemed to cover her body briefly as she used her Attribute to enhance it, to a small extent. Not enough to be over the top, but still enough to allow her to speed up.

She dodged many of the strikes easily. With every attack she dodged she took her own chance at a free strike, slamming her sheathed sword into several of the monsters as hard as she could.

The force from the strike threw several of the Bestia Macht"s into the air, causing them to come crashing down on top of one another. Ken held her sword up as it began to glow a crimson red.

"Red-Flash!" Ken yelled out slashing the sword down.

There was an explosion of wind as a red energy wave fired out as soon as she slashed the sword down. The energy wave washed over the downed beast"s incinerating them instantly. She let out a quiet hiss as her hands began to shake from the force sending a shiver of pain up the small girls back. She didn"t have a chance to relax though as several more Baron"s jumped out at her...

The girl easily cut up several of the monsters that came near her. She slid back slightly landing near a wall as she placed her sword down. "Ha... Way too easy-"

A Bestia Macht surprised the girl jumping up from the pile of corpses and reviling that it wasn"t dead yet! The young girl let out a panicked gasp as the monsters claw almost reached her neck.

There was a silver flash as a blade cut straight through the monster"s arm! Seconds later Zero brought his sword up easily slicing the monster in half in a single motion.

Ken stood there stupidly for a few seconds as she let out a sigh of relief. "That... That was close..."

"Do you not know how to use that blade..." Zero questioned slowly as he gave a look to the girl.

"Well... I know that if I can hit people with it, it"ll hurt..." Ken said trailing off as she glanced away from the man.

Zero let out a sigh. "That sword isn"t even in any viable shape..." Zero hissed out rolling his eyes.

"Hey get off my back! It was like this when I stole- Found it! It was like this when I found it!" Ken yelled out.

"Will you two shut up!" James shouted.

"Shut up James!" Everyone in the cave yelled out.

Meanwhile over with Kitsune the young n.o.ble was easily dodging any strike that came near him. He threw his arms out firing out several blades of fire that burnt through the flesh, and fur, of any creature that got near him as they howled in pain.

"Let"s both get strong enough to be featured in that Enforcer book you have! Let"s do it together!"

Kitsune"s eye twitched as he sliced a Bestia Macht with his flames.

"I"m trying to think of a new attack?"

Kitsune let out a slight huff as he split another Bestia Macht in half from frustration. "d.a.m.n it..." The n.o.ble cursed out as he slammed a ball of fire into another beast. "Hero... Barely anytime and you are already thinking of a new way to use your attack! You are trying to find out how to master an unstable ability..." He hissed out to himself as he spun in a circle firing out a disk of flames that exploded sending chunks of Bestia Macht everywhere. "Together my a.s.s! If you"re going to try and improve so quick, I"ll just double- No triple- No quadrupole my efforts! I"ll do whatever I can to not only keep up with you, but surpa.s.s you!" He announced. "No... Not surpa.s.s you. I"ll use this chance to remain ahead of you... I won"t let you get past me! I"ll stay at the top! So I can show them-"

A Baron slammed a fist into Kitsune"s face throwing the boy back...

Inside of Kitsune"s mind, he could see the outline of his older brother... Kitsune gritted his teeth as he threw a flaming punch out at the monster who punched him.

"I"ll get so strong-" He gasped out shooting out a flaming kick. "-So strong... That when I see you again-" Kitsune dodged a ma.s.sive swipe from a Baron. "-that I"ll be able to take the family over! Then-" His fist came up uppercutting the monster, slamming his fist straight into the monster"s skull. "-Then... You"ll finally be able to rest!"

Kitsune brought both his arms down right onto the head of a beast hard enough to slam it straight into the ground. He let out a tired huff as he finally killed all the monsters around him.

"And make sure to keep up Hero..."

Meanwhile near the entrance of the Nest Irene stood. She nervously stared at the Bestia Macht as they all charged at her. The girl"s arm shook violently as she stared at the monsters... She tried to steady her breathing. "Why is my body shaking so bad... I never had this problem when I was in the village-"

"Snow!"

"Hero!"

For brief second images of the two pa.s.sed through the young girl"s mind. She saw them again in her mind. The image of both of them beat up and bloodied appeared in her mind.

"I"ll make the plan!" The voice of North hissed out in the young girl"s mind. Only now it was twisted and disoriented. It sounded like it was mocking her now.

The girl gritted her teeth as she remembered the blue letter dropping down to her twin brother... The successful twin...

"I don"t care what happened in your life. I don"t care why you are hesitating so much. What I do care about is that if you don"t stop you will get both of us killed. So whatever is causing you to panic do me a favor and just ignore it!"

Cloud"s voice echoed out in the girl"s mind as she raised both her hands up. They glowed a bright blue as a large shard of ice fired out impacting right into the skull of one of the monsters. Their head instantly froze as they stopped moving. Then slowly the frozen head fell forward simply leaving the shoulders of the monster, as the rest of its body fell back.

All the beast"s let out loud howls of pain as the all charged forward towards the girl. Irene gave them all a serious look as she fired out several more ice attacks. Her hands shook violently but she managed to suppress the nature of the voices that all yelled at her to just give up.

"I can do this..." She announced in a shaking voice as she fired off several more attacks. "I"m... I"m North! And North is the best!" She announced to herself. She clapped her hands together as a blue glow illuminated from them. She concentrated as hard as she could and pulled back creating, and crude block of ice. The seventeen-year-old girl let out a sigh of pain. "I still can"t control it..." She said with a whimper.

Meanwhile over at yet another part of the Nest Cloud easily avoided any strikes that came his way. His hand shot up deflecting several clawed hands of the Bestia Macht"s but their claws still dug into his arm ripping out some of his flesh, and causing him to curse out.

"d.a.m.n it!" He cursed dodging more of the creatures. "I"m justed to fighting with my cane..." He muttered out waving his hand and firing out a wave of steam that burned several of the monsters nearby.

One of the Bestia Macht jumped into the air nearly landing on the blind teen, but Cloud thankfully avoided it at the very last second.

"This is way more difficult than I remember it being..." He muttered out as he tried to deflect another blow with his hand but was instead sent flying back, causing him to slam into the wall.

Cloud let out an audible groan as he tried to stand back up. A small growl escaped his lips as he slammed his hands down, launching out a ma.s.sive wave of acidic mist, that melted everything around him.

"Screw you guys!" The Blind teen announced standing back up. "If I can"t fight you all one on one, I"ll just use cheap tactics and force you to melt away!" Several of the monsters all howled in pain as they melted into a disgusting goop. Cloud simply let out a sigh as he shook his head. "I gotta get a new weapon..."

Meanwhile, near the middle part of the cave, two adults fought back to back. "Just like our glory days right Yang?" Anga questioned. He brought his arm up slamming it straight into the skull of one of the Bestia Macht"s using his Attribute "Super Strength" to easily punch the head of the monster clean off.

"I know what ya mean..." Yang said flashing a smile to his brother. He slammed his foot down-firing as the ground raised up and crushed to Bestia Macht"s. He did this with his Attribute "Geomancer" which allowed him to bend the stones and rocks to the point of making them seem alive.

"It has been a while since we last fought together right?" Anga questioned grabbing a Bestia Macht and quite literally ripping it in half.

"It has..." Yang said nodding. "We haven"t fought together since..."

"Yeah... Since mom got sick..." Anga said quietly. He reached out ripping the tongue out of one of the Bestia Macht"s. "But that is why we need to do this... If we can get into that cave we can save mom... And we can use it to help the armies out. We could make a solider far stronger, and save the world..." He stated proudly as he slammed his fist up again punching straight through a Bestia Macht"s gut.

"You"re right..." Yang said nodding as he raised both his arms up and launching up spikes made out of rocks. "So let"s get into that cave!" He announced proudly!

Meanwhile over with James... The man sidestepped several of the Bestia Macht"s as he brought his arm up. His flesh became green as it became a plant-like vine. The vine was covered in p.r.i.c.ks as he whipped it back and forth slashing across several of the monsters.

"Ha, ha!" James laughed wrapping his whip arm around a monster"s throat. He pulled back ripping part of the head off. "I can"t wait till we get into that cave. I"ll take that formula and sell it for billions of Bells! I"ll be so rich!" He said letting out a slightly evil laugh.

He may or may not be a bad guy.

James kicked his leg out as it too turned into a vine that ripped into another monster. Be brought it up slamming it up into the roof of one of the monsters.

He brought his right arm up as it changed becoming a ma.s.sive buff plant arm. He slammed it down over the head of one of the monsters ripping it apart instantly.

"Geez..." Hero said watching the man slay a bunch of monsters with plant limbs. "And I thought my powers were weird..."

Meanwhile at another point in the cave. Seth easily sidestepped a bunch of the monsters as he reached into his pockets pulling out a mirror. Then he began to do his make up? Like he just went all in, in the middle of this high-end battle.

Several of the Baron"s all growled at him seemingly offended by his nature, and lack of respect for them.

Seth ignored them as he placed more makeup around his large scar as he frowned slightly. "I need to get into that cave..." He said slowly as he still dodged any swipe easily. "Then... I can use it to become beautiful again..." He muttered out slowly. "Until then..." His eyes caught the reflection of a very ugly monster in his mirror. "I"ll continue to wipe out these vile lookers..." He stated easily. His mirror glowed as he sliced at the monster in the mirror with a knife that he apparently had hidden in his sleeve.

In the real world, the monster let out a loud yell of pain as its neck suddenly gained a large gash.

Seth gave the monster a cold look as he continued to stab the knife into the reflection of the monster. Finally, after a few seconds, its body collapsed to the floor as the man gave a wide smile. "Beautiful..." He said simply.

Finally at the final part of the Nest two men stood. Jackson brought his sword down-firing out a wave of lightning that slashed into the monster ripping it apart.

Zero rolled his eyes as he sliced at several of the monsters with his sword. White lines appeared around them as they fell apart.

"One hundred and eight!" Jackson announced.

"One hundred and Nine!" Zero replied easily killing another monster.

Jackson frowned as he threw his sword into the air. He clapped his hands together pointing them forward. "Arking Shot!" He announced as several beams of lightning fired out washing over several of the monsters and easily killing all of them. "I think I"m winning!"

Zero let out a hiss as he raised his sword. "Prolonged Execution!" He announced proudly as he slammed it down. Millions of white strings seemed to explode out of his blade washing out and shredding all of the monsters that got near him.

Several hundred monsters fell apart instantly as they all howled in pure agony.

A loud roar echoed our further in the cave as a ma.s.sive Earl suddenly exploded out of the darkness. It let out a ma.s.sive roar as it eyed the two most dangerous humans up...

The Early stood at nearly twenty feet tall, and had a thick hide around its body. It had a ma.s.sive head with a very powerful jaw. Eight very strong looking legs stabbed out from its side holding itself up. It had eight beddy eyes that looked at the humans. The creature let out another loud roar as its powerful jaws clicked together.

"Looks like its the last Earl of this cave..." Jackson said simply. "Also... From the looks of it, this is likely the strongest Earl this cave had... This won"t be easy..."

"Well since we don"t know who is winning any more how about we settle it, with whoever can day it," Zero questioned.

"You"re on!" Jackson announced holding his fist out.

Zero looked at it for a fee moment but smirked slightly as he reached up fist-b.u.mping the man.

"Let"s do this!" They both announced.

Jackson charged forward towards the beast swinging his sword out. The Early kicked at him with its many legs but Jackson turned his sword blocking the attack easily even as it pushed him down.

Suddenly Zero came flying down from the ceiling slashing at the monster with his long sword, but the blade simply reflected off of the beast"s hide.

The Early jumped back landing on the wall of the cave as it stuck to the surface. It crawled around as it turned its body firing out a strong string that wrapped around Jackson"s ankle.

"Uh-Oh..." The man muttered out as the Early turned its body slamming him straight into the wall of the cave.

Zero suddenly flash stepped next to the monster as he sliced his sword down. White strings fired out of it tearing into the monster but only causing a small amount of harm.

"Hmm. It would seem he is pretty tanky..." Zero managed to mutter out before the monster backhanded him away with one of its legs.

"Arking Shot!" Jackson announced out from the dust that surrounded him. Several blue bolts of electricity fired out slamming into the monster, and causing it to hiss out.

"Prolonged Execution!" Zero shouted using his attack as well. Millions of white strings fired out slashing into the monsters hide.

"Boom!"

The entire Nest shook when the two attacks met as the Earl jumped back, smoke coming off of his body.

Jackson and Zero both glanced at each other before they nodded. Suddenly both men threw their swords into the air as they slammed their hands together. There was a moment of silence as a white aura suddenly appeared around them. They both reached out catching their swords.

"Sero!" Jackson announced as the white aura surrounded his legs making them appear as if they were on fire.

"Pero!" Zero stated as the white aura covered his arms. They to looked as if they were on fire as the white light crackled around the two men.

Then suddenly both men charged forward. Jackson exploded forward-moving at speeds nearing the light itself, as Zero slashed at the air with his sword so hard that s.p.a.ce seemed to bend around it, and a ripple effect was unleashed. The two attacks slammed into the upper parts of the Bestia Macht ripped it in half from side to side!

There was a ma.s.sive sonic boom as both men came to a stop. Then slowly the light around them faded.

"That was totally my kill..." Zero said calmly.

"What! No way!" Jackson shouted angrily crossing his arms. "That was mine!"

"Nope."

"Yes!"

"Crash!"

The smoldering upper half of the monster crashed down smacking into the floor. The Earl let out a whimper of pain as it groaned.

"Holy s.h.i.t it"s still alive-"

Jackson began but was stopped when Hero suddenly appeared above the monster slamming a ma.s.sive rock down onto its head crushing it instantly.

"Yay! I win!" The boy stated.

The two men stared at the boy with slacked jaws. "You kill thief!" They both shouted out in anger.

"What?"

Before a fight could break out, and by fight, the narrator means, before the two men slaughtered Hero, Anga raised his hand up silencing the group.

"Guys listen..." He said calmly.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Everyone stayed silent as they listened.

"I don"t hear anything..." Ken finally said.

"Exactly," Anga announced smirking. "We won! All the Bestia Macht are dead now!" He announced proudly. "Or they are heading to the village?"

"What!?" Ken said with wide eyes.

"Well some might have gotten through, but relax. It is only one or two of them. They were also Barons. I"m sure it"ll be fine. It"ll take then hours to get back to the village anyways. We can get in grab what we are looking for, then head back to my base. I got a snowmobile in there... We"ll fine."

"You"re sure it won"t take long to explore the cave?" Jackson asked.

"Nah..." The man said. "Besides. The reports say it has been closed off for twelve years now. Whatever was down there has long since died."

"I see... So where is this cave?"

"That is a good question..." Anga said looking around the Nest... "I have no idea where the entrance is?"

"Let me guess... We have to look for it?"

"That is correct..."
