Apache’s Gut

This was it, the big day for anyone sixteen-our cantrip day- "Scott!" My name was finally called! "Step forward and place your head to the stone, THE HELL, never seen that one before!" He yelled"Apache Gut, what's it mean doc?" I asked "eating the flesh of another creature brings no adverse effects and gives you their abilities, PERMANENTLY! It's useless kid." It certainly didn't seem useless to me, but in party selection I would have been last picked, or solo if it wasn't for my friends Cole and Thompson. "Nobody wants me, can I join you?" Her voice proved she wasn't from around here "The more the merrier!" Cole said, like the SIMP he is. "I have a healing ability, you guys?" She asked "I can harden my flesh at will, impressive right?" Cole said, trying to impress her. "I can control fire, and create it at will!" Thompson said, refusing to be outdone. "I can gain abilities by consuming creatures' flesh" I muttered, defeated. A large man 8'6" in height waltzed up to us and asked the girl "finally find a team?" Then turning to us "don't let my daughter get hurt, or you won't be alive to regret it!" That's why she hadn't been chosen by anyone, but a group of misfits like us. We didn't back down or cower, we never knew how. He noticed it and warmed up to us instantly "if you need ANYTHING tell me, what are you skills anyways?" We went over it again "you two I can't really help right now but you, Scott, come with me". We all followed, to afraid to be alone, but not knowing what to do but comply. When we were away from the other teams he said "My ability is to regenerate from anything, bite me!" Reluctantly I bit into his arm, and before I could think I tore a chunk off and swallowed it whole. His arm regenerated and he twisted my arm off. I bellowed in agony, but it regrew before my eyes. "Five seconds, that's a RECORD!" He surmised. "I know what you're thinking, and I'll break your legs if you eat me!" Cole threatened. Turns out when you regenerate as fast as I now do, broken legs don't have time to hurt. Pouting he looked at the girl "heal me will ya?" After that little escapade I had three cantrips, a duel user is held highly, much less a triple user, two now existed, me and the President. I wasn't about to try the dad's rage, or Thompson's pyro skills, yet.
