[Bottom Floor.]
*Elevate*
The caged elevator began to rise to the ceiling of the bottle floor. As it continued to go up, the light below faded into black, engulfing the contraption into a dark abyss.
The elevator was accompanied by Ken, transporting him to the first floor otherwise the top floor.
Soon he had arrived to the first floor, the third round.
[First Floor.]
The bright and clear light drowned out the darkness from beneath. It gave Ken the ability to see clearly without forcing his eyes.
*Halt!*
*Screech!*
As the carrier reached the top, it halted in place. When it stopped it jerk up and then down but was fortunately in place. When it jerked it made a loud screech.
The cage wall infront of Ken then swing open, releasing him out of that small domain.
Now he entered a bigger one.
*Step, Step, Step*
He then walk out of the elevator and entered the big, but limited than expansion.
At the other end of the expansion stood another cage. This one was sealed shut, preventing Ken to see inside and whatever was in there to see outside. It was different from the one that Ken was in,which had diamond shapes carved into it, allow light inside it. In the center of this cage was a red dot of light.
Ken inquired, "What is that?"
Ezil, at Ken's side, then answered, "That's your opponent."
"My opponent is a box?!" Ken asked in confused tone. "I thought I was going to fight monsters."
"*Sigh*" Ezil let out a sigh of annoyance. "You stupid pest. Your opponent is within the box, dunce!" Ezil explained.
"Ohhh," said Ken with a hint of realization. "But I have another question."
"What is it?" Ezil asked in a lackadaisic and dull voice and expression.
"They told me that I'd get back my spear back to fight. But no ones here," said Ken in an aggravated state of mind. "Except you."
"Ken," said Ezil with an irritated voice, "don't remember that you had left your stupid sharp toy with that Toagshi fellow?"
"..." Ken then took a brief second to think. He raised his head and started to stare out of space, even though he was in a large building with a roof.
"Ooohh.." said Ken, realization that he indeed had left his spear with Toagshi, thus he was mistaken. "You're right. So why did they tell me that they'll give me back my spear?"
"Did they tell you that, dumbass? Or did.. she say that they'll give you.. a few other spears?!!" Ezil shouted. " They're right over their!" Ezil then pointed at the left of the domain with his ghost-like index finger.
Ken followed where Ezil had pointed with his eyes, leading his sight to an armoury of spears stacked at the side of the building.
"That many?" Ken inquired in awe.
He walked to the stash of spears at the left of the building. He then picked up one of the spears at the right of the stash and examined it.
"This will work," he said while grasping the spear tightly. "Huh?"
*Grasp*
*Crack*
Ken clutched the spear even more tightly in his palm and the handle began to slowly crack. He then eased the pressure off the spear.
"(This thing is dry rotten!?)" Ken shouted in his mind being dumbfounded. "(I now reckon that Asian guy in a doctors coat.)"
[5 minutes & 57 seconds ago.]
[Bottom Floor.]
"Hey Mr. Lincoln!" Akira called from afar.
They were at the bottom floor.
Ken was just about to enter the caged elevator, but before he could, Kuwobasa halted him.
*Halt*
Ken stopped and turned around. He peered at Akira with a side eye.
"Yo?" He inquired.
"I want you to know something," said Kuwobasa. He then walk towards Ken.
*Step, Step, Step, Step*
When he was at whispering range, he whispered something briefly to Ken. "*Whispers* A few things might be fishy in the rounds that you're in."
[Current Time.]
[Top Floor.]
*Open!*
Suddenly the cage at the other side of the floor then opened. The red light in the center then shift to a bright green.
*Blow~*
A chilling breeze exited the cage, conquering any soul with fear and dismay..
.. but not this soul.
Ken watched as the cage opened, waiting to see his enemy that he has to kill.
From out of the shadows of darkness engulfed in ice, a entity makes its entrance.
Infront of Ken, what was from afar, stood a creature with a height of eight-two feet (8'2ft) and width three (3) feet. This giant was an abomination, a creature that was first made to conserve life, is now a monster mutated incorrectly. Its only purpose was to kill all humans and that's what it is fixed on currently.
The anatomy of the creature: It had a single eye ball that had a light brown fibre covering the sides; it was as large as a full grown humans bottom half. The eye was the helm of the creature itself. The arms were big and long as five benches, and it had four legs, which are as tall as a toddler, giving it an awkward posture.
Its hands were slouched down on the ground because of it's legs. At the bottom of the legs were vines and roots. And its entire body was covered in dead branches and leaves.
*Dash!*
*Swoosh!!*
Abruptly and without warning, the Akuma charged towards Ken at an absurd speed. Despite its size, it was as fast as a quarter of the speed of sound.
*SLAM!!*
*CRASH!*
The monster then crashed into the wall with incredible speed. A mist of dust was then conjured up and filled the air with a suffocating smoke.
But where was Ken in all of this?
The mist then settled and revealed the monster. It front body was sunken into the wall, trapping it inside, but only temporary.
*Crack~*
The monster then began to pull its arms out of the wall and later its legs.
*Crack!*
The pressure of its movements caused small portions of the wall to crack and later crash down.
*CRASH!*
It exited its confinements and roared out in victory. "*ROAR!!!*"
But not the right victory.
*Slice*
A sharp enough object was flung towards the creature, and made a small cut on its side.
The then began to spill out a purple goo, that ran down to the Akuma's leg.
"Huh?" A familiar voice inquired. "Can't you see with that big ass eye of yours?"
"*Rooooar!*" The monster roared in anger and a hint of confusion.
"Hmph!" The person scoffed in in disgust. "Don't use that mouth again, unless you brush your teeth. Cause your breathe stinks like..!"
*Stab!*
A spear was then stabbed into the thigh of the Akuma an then quickly removed.
"Ggggrrrrr~.." the Akuma growled in awe. The pain its thigh was increasing as it felt the spear went deeper.
".. wet dog shit!" Ken said.
What the entity saw was Ken wielding a spear which was stabbed into the thigh of the creature.
The Akuma then growled in irritation and annoyance. "GGGRRRR!!"
It raised its hand in the air and flung it towards the now defenceless human, Ken. The attack crashed through the air with mighty speed, foreshadowing a life shattering blow.
"Huh?" Ken inquired. He stared at the attack that was heading his way, unaware of the deadly amount of force behind the attack.
*POW!!*
The attack connected to Ken's chest, and blast of air came flying out of his back.
"Argh..!" Ken groaned in pain as the attack from the Akuma connected to his chest. It left a dent in his chest.
Ken began to cough up blood because of internal damage. "*Cough!, Cough!*
*BLAST!!!*
After a few second later, Ken went flying through the air backwards. It was because of the force that connected with his chest.
*SWOOSH!!*
*CRASH!*
Ken's body was then slammed into the wall behind, leaving a web of cracks where he had hit.
"Son of a.." Ken stuttered in an weaken voice," .. bitch!"
Parts of the wall began fall off. The portions around soon fell of, carrying him with them.
*Thud!*
Ken fell face first on the solid floor. After that, he laid his palm on the floor, attempting to get up.
*WHOOSH!*
Once again, the large Akuma - that was standing at a height of eight-plus feet (8+ft) - dashed towards its opponent.
It had reached its enemy in only a short amount of time.
*Whoosh*
The Akuma launched another devastating attack, this time with its foot. The attacker pulled back his legs and aligned it with Ken's jaw.
*POUND!*
*Swoosh!*
Once agai, Ken flied away into the air. The attack had hit his jaw, sending him up to the heaven's.
While up in the air, Ken said in a weak voice, "This thing isn't even giving me anytime to react, let alone move.."
*SWOOSH!*
And it happened again!
The Akuma leaped into the air with its small, but strong legs. The vines had suddenly merged into toes.
It flew pass Ken's ascending body and clenched its hands tightly together. With it right above Ken it delivered a destructive blow.
*POUND!!!*
It levered its hand downwards in accelerated speed. The attack hit Ken's back, sending him downwards.
"Ugh!" Ken scoffed in pain and annoyance. He was heavily injured.
*CRACK!*
The attack that hit Ken's back then broke a bone.
"You're screwed, kid," said Ezil with a grim smirk.
Ken went head first and crashed landed on the floor.
"Is that so..?" Ken said in a smooth voice.
