[Typhons POV]
*PING PING PLING PING PING PLING*
I groan as the blaring sound wakes me up, My head is throbbing and this definitely isn't helping.
I notice my Sliver displaying a message.
"Huh?!" I jolt upwards as I read the display message.
*URGENT MESSAGE*
*SENDER: KAGE*
I open the contents of the message frantically.
It's an SOS message?!? From Kage??
I thought nothing could shake that guy, It must be dire.
I immediately leave the base and dash towards the Coordinates I was sent.
I use my Sliver to boost my speed ten fold but only temporarily.
After about 10 minutes of running I get a notification.
*Ping pling*
*"Out of stamina, Suggested action: Teleport."*
"I FORGOT I COULD TELEPORT. FUCK FUCK" I say waiting for some stamina so I can teleport.
*Hold on Kage* I think determinedly.
*several minutes of shamelessly recovering in a tree later*
*ping pling*
*Teleportation skill now available*
"Finally, I'll be there in a minute Kage."
I outstretch my palm to my left and shout
"COME OUT, CURSE OF THE KILLER"
As my 6ft long shape-shifting Battle axe appears in my hand I put my palm on the ground and think of the coordinates.
A red symbol resembling a mix of a Celtic shield knot, Pentagram, Hexagram, witches knot and spiral show up. A red spiral flows up my arm until it envelops me whole and I fall through the symbol into a pocket space. It's blank but somehow I know where to go.
I walk a few feet upwards and straight but to the right I end up at a resembling symbol that's blue this time. I place my palm on it and this time I walk through without falling.
The scene that unfolds before me is worthy of a novel. A bright flash of white followed by darkness slowly clearing away as my vision returns. I see I front of me not one but two dead bears. One with charring all around it and several slash wounds on it and one with partial charring and a knocked off jaw.
I look around as I see Kage's blade 4ft to the left of the beast, Blade in the ground. Next to that I see Kage bloodied and beaten standing afront a beast. His fists are raised and he's leaning slightly forwards with his shoulders loose. He's swaying, He's on his last legs and the beast...Doesn't seem to be fazed at all besides from several broken claws.
He speaks up before I even make a noise "Typhon" he pauses "I'm going to take a nap, Do be haste, We're running out of time."
He turns and I see a flicker of lightning on his hand and in his eye before I finally begin processing what happened.
"YOU CANT JUST GO TAKE A NAP IN THE MIDDLE OF A BATTLE" I yell.
He stops walking away for a minute and then says "Why can't I? Don't forget you've only just woken up." He says insultingly.
He has a point but I won't let him know that.
"Fine...but don't slack off too much or I'll have to direct my attacks at you." I say arrogantly as I roll my shoulders and ready my fists.
"Why are you holding up your fists you dope?" Kage quips from behind me.
"What? How else am I supposed to fight this thing?!?"
"Didn't you walk through that portal holding a weapon?" Kage says condescendingly.
"Well...I suppose I did but..." *Where did my weapon go?*
*Wait!*
I hold out my hand..."COME OUT! CURSE OF THE KILLER!" A small handle appears in my hand and grows to 6ft in length with a battle axe head on the end of it.
"Goodjob kid. I'll help you out when you land a shot." I hear come from my back right.
I grit my teeth and run towards the beast.
I raise my axe on an 47° angle curved behind my head. Once I am 7ft away the beast readies an attack.
I drive in closer and closer, 4ft now and feint a swing at a 180° angle. The beast tries to block as I smirk and change the trajectory of the head making a positive parabola. I grimace as the head hits the poor beast in the groin and slashes a foot and a half up its abdomen. It let's out a painful roar and I jump back out of its attack range as it swings down on where I was.
I need a better hit. This thing is quite heavy so I won't be able to swing it many more times.
*I NEED A SPEAR*
The idea is like a flood in my mind as my energy courses through my veins and into my weapon. It gets lighter and glows as it transforms into a spear.
"Well this shouldn't be too hard then" I say confidently as I charge at the beast. I am 14ft away, The spear from base to head is 6ft and from base to point is 7ft.
I only have one shot so I have to be exactly precise. I plant the base of the spear 7ft away from the beast I jump and using my momentum and physics I temporarily use the spear as a mounted lever.
As I reach the highest point of the crescent I push the spear down into the ground before quickly pulling it in towards me. This causes the spear to be lifted off the ground as I get propelled forwards at a slightly faster rate I then throw the spear directly towards the beasts head.
I land with a roll to continue momentum and as the beast is distracted I grab Kage's sword. I almost lose all my momentum as the weight of it throws me off guard.
This thing has to weight 10× the weight of my axe. I may only get one shot. Luckily as I pick it up a bolt of lightning hits it, Suddenly making it lighter and appearing sharper.
I look behind me to see Kage's outstretched hands, One pointed at me and the blade and one towards the beast.
He gives me a nod as I dash towards the stunned bear, First a one hundred eighty degree slash on its side, Then a jump 3ft to the right followed by a one hundred thirty five degree stab from beneath the ribcage through to the right of the spine.
I let go of the blade, Grab my spear and jump back as another bolt of electricity hits my spear. I charge the shot and throw with all my might in through the mouth of the beast at an angle which may turn the brain into fried mush.
*Slash*
*Thwump*
*Huh?!? I thought it was stunned, How can this be?* I think to myself as my world turns to slow motion and I fly through the air.
*What even just happened?? Think Typhon think. WAIT! The moment I threw my spear when it connected to the bear the handle was long enough that it was a mere 5 inches from the ground. I must've grounded the initial charge on the beast giving it enough time to slash my spear away and hit me hard enough to send me flying. Yeah! That must be how that-*
*WACK*
