Nicklaus opened his eyes suddenly and saw the sun shining down at his face. He quickly closed his eyes and turned away. When he opened them once more, he saw a river next to him. That's when he realized he was drowning before he lost consciousness. He got up quickly and looked around. It did not seem familiar so he thought he must have been washed downstream by the current. The first thing he had to do was look for a town or a centre.
He started going upstream hoping to find a town near the river. But he was soon to be disappointed for half a day had gone and no sign of even human activities. He was grown hungry too and no amount of water could stop it. He thought of how to get food and one method came to him, hunting. He and his friends were pretty good hunters back at his village so this wasn't new to him. He made a small trap and bait of succulent leaves for rabbits or hare. He hid in the water so that his scent could not be detected and waited.
Two hours in, he heard the snapof the trap then the shrieks of the prey. He ran out of the water to his trap. He saw a rabbit alright but this was a rabbit straight out of a horror show. It had red eyes, fangs for teeth and dried was evident on its mouth. Nicklaus fell on the ground due to shock as the rabbit to look at him, savageness and bloodthirsty evident in its eyes. If not for trap around its leg, it would have charged at him.
"What the hell! What kind of horror movie is this!" Nicklaus shouted to himself as he scrambled to get up. He heard the snapping sound of the trap breaking and his adrenaline just started pumping. He started running deeper and deeper into the forest without looking back to see if the rabbit was after him.
He did notice though that he getting faster and faster as he ran but he thought it was because of the adrenaline. He did not know when but he decided to stop he he did not hear anything behind him. He started panting as if the body just remembered he was supposed to then after a few seconds, he was fine once again.
"What's going on and what was that thing?" he asked himself then looked around. "Great, now I am lost." He saw a relatively large tree not far from him and decided to climb it and check where he was. When he was halfway, he heard the angry chattering of monkeys coming towards him. He quickly realized he was not their match on a tree so he quickly descended.
But the monkeys were not about to give up. They came down too and now he was surrounded by hundreds of baboon like monkeys that were as tall as a teenager on hormones and ripped as body builders. The started chattering agitatedly then one of them walked towards him on all twos. Nicklaus realized he was easily dwarfed by the baboon which gave him no amount of pleasure. The baboons started acting like spectators, cheering at the baboon that came forward and Tim realized that they wanted him to fight with this freak of nature.
Without giving Nicklaus a chance, the baboon threw a punch so fast Nicklaus did not seen it coming. He only felt a sudden immense pain on his chest as he flew backwards and hit the ground quite painfully. He felt as it his chest just broke. The baboon was in him with no chance to let him recover and slammed it's arms at him, ready to smashh him but he quickly rolled away. But it was not done yet. It's hands like fee got hold of his leg, pulled him towards it. It lifted him with one hand and the other entities him flying once more. Nicklaus was in the verge of losing his consciousness as the baboon was raising it's hands victoriously, its clan members cheering it on.
Nicklaus suddenly felt a warm feeling all over his body and all the pain and drowsiness went away. He suddenly felt stronger than before, way stronger. He got up and looked at himself in surprise. He was not the only one who was surprised. His challenger was also very surprised for the last punch would have killed him if it did want to. Nicklaus looked at the baboon and smiled, a crazy idea got into his head. Was he strong as this baboon or stronger?
Without further a do, he rushed at the baboon and threw a punch which the baboon intercepted with it's own. Nicklaus felt a little pain from that punch but the warm feeling courses through his body once again. He stronger once more. He threw another punch, this time faster than before. It connected at the baboon's ribs, making it hunch doe in pain. Nicklaus smashed at its nose next making it flew backwards and land on its back. This time, he did not feel pain when he fought with it. He was a little stronger than it and faster too.
"Come on then. Is that all," Nicklaus taunted it. The baboon got up and roared at him angrily. It charged at him on all fours and he charged back. They smashed into each other creating a small shockwave. But none of them had been pushed backwards. The other baboons were flabbergasted as Nicklaus's challenger. Nicklaus suddenly slipped past the baboon's grip on his shoulders, got behind it, locked his hands round it's waist then did the legendary German supplex, smashing the baboon's head hard on the ground, incapacitating it.
Nicklaus let go of it as he smiled and looked at the other baboons that were chattering among themselves before they all became quiet and looked at him. Nicklaus became tense as he thought they would mob him but they simply bowed at him suddenly as one of them came and took the out cold baboon before they all left as suddenly as they came. Nicklaus took a deep breath out in relief and sat down. First thing he noticed was that he was not tired yet. Second thing was that warm energy that went through all his body when he was on the verge of collapse. He came to only one conclusion.
"I grow strong as I fight," he said to himself. "Now, between the murderous rabbit and the steroid induced baboons, I am not on Earth. It means something brought me here for things I do not know yet. As for this zenkai boost ability, I am going to abuse the hell out of it until I know what it's limit are."
