Jake and Tyson wore their gloves, they looked at each other and they looked away, they really didn't know how'd they get the minerals Jasmine told them to, they had never done this before, so they waited for someone who might have an idea of what Jasmine meant.
Xadia went to his knees, he then dipped his hands into the lake, testing maybe it was resistance to water, and it was. Wearing the gloves it looked like his sleeves would get wet, the gloves only covered the hands. Noticing this, Xadia then rolled his sleeves up his arm until it reached his shoulder, now he wouldn't worry about his sleeves getting wet.
He then dipped his hands deeper into the water, it was deep but he couldn't feel the coldness of the water, that was when he noticed that the gloves had increased in length, it covered his skin to where the water level reached, he then dug deeper into the water and like a spider the gloves end began to crawl towards his arm until it reached his shoulders, it completely kept the water from touching his skin.
'Did she think about this, it's like she knows everything '. Xadia thought.
He then began to pull out rocks of different colors into the info glass.
Now that Xadia had demonstrated what Jasmine intended they should do, Jake and Tyson then joined him to pick from the lake. They did exactly what he did, they both wondered how Xadia was able to understand what Jasmine meant, little did they know that the Legend of Zelda helped in his understanding of collecting minerals resource, the game was one of Xadia's obsession in the past.
"Don't gather more than two of the same elements". Xadia informed.
He soon left for another spot by the lake, the previous spot was filled with almost the same minerals, it was alot that he had resulted to dumping some of the minerals back.
Xadia soon felt a squishy hard material in the water, it was very smooth, it had to be a special material. He then pulled the material out of the water, but it was no material, it was a creature.
It looked like a mixed breed of an octopus and spider, it had a total of eight eyes on it's head, it's head was smooth, slimy and yet hard, no wonder it felt like a rock. Its beak was razor sharp, it was six and they were all glowing red, matching its dark burgundy color.
It's eyes soon opened and as it did, it lashed onto Xadia's left arm, with its beak it began to bite his arm. Xadia quickly took a stone from the floor, he then began to bang it on the creature's head until it released its grip on him, one final hit then killed the creature.
Luckily Xadia didn't suffer from any cut on his arm, the creatures beak wasn't able to cut through the gloves textile material, the glove was more than a glove.
"What's that, is that a creature". Tyson noticed, Xadia's action made him noticed.
"Yes, I pulled it from the water, it tried to bite me, so I killed it, it might be native to this lake". Xadia replied.
"Dude, you just found food, if we take it to Jasmine she can make it safe for consumption, there might be many of the creature in the waters, let's fish them up". Tyson deduced.
"Hey Jake, we found food". Tyson shouted.
"Really". Jake said, and he rushed towards them.
He then took the creature to examine it. He held it in his hands, he then used his cloths to rub the water on the creatures body and Tyson and Xadia was wondering what he was getting at. After cleaning up the water from the creature he then bit the creature's slimy skin with his teeth, he then tore the flesh and consumed it.
"Dude, what the fuck". "What the hell, hugh". Tyson and Xadia exclaimed.
"What?, I'm a mutant, I can digest it". Jake defended.
"That's disgusting, it's uncooked we were going to take it to Jasmine". Tyson commented.
"If you found this one, then there's more, I'll have this one, we will cook the next one's we find". Jake explained, and he continued to consume the creatures body..
"They're deep, they're going to be hard to find, right Xadia". Tyson asked.
"Actually, it's not going to be hard at all, I have a plan, and we can find all of them in the lake". Xadia replied.
"I need you to have you energy spear tentacles ready, the spider form precisely, you can stand in the middle of the lake, when they pop up, you stab and kill".
"Jake will bring them out, I want you to launch your claw attacks into the lake, just below the lake's bed, your claws will cut them and wake them from their sleep". Xadia explained.
They then got into positions, Tyson summoned his orbs and siphoned them to his back, creating his spider form. He lifted over the lake with two of his spider-tentacle, the other two was shaped into tentacle spears.
Jake removed the gloves on his hands, he then placed gloves on his wrist to form into a wrist wear. He then began to claw invisible energy attacks into the water, "Get ready" Jake informed Tyson, the water then began to vibrate.
A creature popped out of the water, as soon as it did, Tyson was done with it with a single thrust of his tentacle spear. The creatures blood was smeared over the pool, and in a few seconds another creature popped out, Tyson prepared to finish it up, and that was when another popped out again, and then they beagn to pop out in massive numbers, they filled the lake's water volume.
"Huh Xadia, I think we just angered all of them". Tyson said nervously.
The eyes of the creatures glowed red and they began to attack Tyson. They launched themselves at him, and he could only slice and slash as he got down to the side of the river by Xadia's side.
The creature were not only water based and they soon rushed out of the water to attack the trios, Jake was clawing the at them, releasing his invisible energy strikes that were dealing with the creatures with ease.
Tyson and Jake were doing great, but Xadia was finding it had to kill the creatures, he could only kick and punch at them and they were swarming him like bees, he soon began to run away from the creatures, he had nothing to cut through their body.
He then began to lead the creatures to Jake's kill zone, he could sense the invisible attacks, and he was dodging them easily, on the other hand the creatures were being sent to death.
All the creatures lay dead on the floor ready to be devoured by Jake.
"Hey, stop that". Tyson shouted at Jake.
"This is more than we thought we'd get, this won't shorten anything, there's plenty to spare". Jake then consumed the creature, his mouth smeared with the creatures blood.
"Hey Tyson, my glass is full". Xadia shouted at Tyson from a distance.
"What!!?". Tyson shouted back.
Xadia's glass doubled in length and width.
"Nevermind!!, Let's pack it all". Xadia replied.
They then gathered the creature's corpse into the glasses, along with the minerals, and it was indeed more than enough.
"We have enough for food now, we don't need to head to the tree creature anymore". Xadia announced.
"Told ya". Jake teased Tyson, swinging a creature's corpse in front of his face, Tyson covered his mouth in disgust.
"How are we carrying this". Tyson asked.
"Uhm, I know you're gonna be angry but you are going to carry it all". Xadia announced.
"What?, No way". Tyson reprimanded.
"You're the fastest here and it will save a lot of stress, you just go spider form and carry the glass containers one by one, you're not going to be running, just carrying and controlling your tentacles to carry you up the hill and put the containers in front of the dome, me and Jake will carry the containers inside when we reach the dome.
Tyson looked at Jake who was stuffing a creature's corpses in his mouth, he gave a thumbs up, indicating his approval of the plan.
"You owe me two currell packs if I do this". Tyson requested.
"That's fine by me". Xadia replied.
"Good, he made me lose my appetite for spider-octopus creatures, yuck, disgusting piece of shit". Tyson said, he pointed at Jake and walked towards a glass container.
"You know I can hear you right, I can't wait for her duel, cause you're going down". Jake replied.
"You're gonna regret it, you have no idea". Tyson smirked.
Tyson summoned his spider form and knelt to carry his wide glass container; it kept shifting more in size as the load increased.
Tyson then headed for the dome.
