The Apprentice (Fox X Karcen)

[Foxora]

He got to his feet. "That not entirely, true. We just been using the wrong method to hurt it." But he looked at her with worry, It would be best to get her out of harms way. "We'll have to go with what you say for now" He mentally face palmed when he remembered that he didn't even bring her traveling vase for this trip.

 

[Karcen]

84 followed after her master as she was slower because maintaining a form was an effort in the face of overwhelming fear when faced with danger. It would be easier to just shift into liquid and zoom away but then she would be leaving her master and she couldn't. The tarrasque was swift to follow them barely missing the two with its swipe but finally it gained enough speed that its swipe would connect. IT brought its claws down aiming at Sebastian and 84 saw it.


She pushed him to the right with all her might and got hit by the tarrasque's claws which tore though her easily. This wouldn't normally kill a slime they would just reform in a smaller body, but the foot that came down on her puddle body did the job as it worked to stop and face Sebastian now that 84 was off its menu and in her place was a strange colored diamond like gem.

 

[Foxora]

After getting pushed to safety, Sebastian saw the horror of seeing Ellie get ripped to shreds and then stomped out. "ELLIE!!" He got to his feet face with shock and despair, before turning into fury when he shifted his gaze at the monster. It was then that his glowing blue irises blinked a few times.... "You will pay for this...." he took a stance and his arms were apart and way from the his body.

 

[Karcen]

The tarrasque didn't understand , it might be big and nearly unstoppable, or well it was unstoppable on this world, but it still was just a slightly clever animal. It only saw the yelling as it being provoked, though just about anything provoked a tarrasque as hungry and enraged was its natural state so much so that it had never felt anything else until it had been introduced to pain just now. It charged secure as the thoughtless creature could be that it was unstoppable and it would be able to eat more soon.

 

[Foxora]

As the beast charged right at him. Sebastian simply jumped up and toward the creature's face as he was now carrying a fairly large, glowing futuristic Hammer. "He swung it, but as he swung it, the hammer's head, started glowing brighter and giving off sparks as he swung it at unbelievable speeds Right into the creatures face, slapping that big lummox away, but not before channeling through a lot of volts though it's body for a few seconds.

 

[Karcen]

The tarrasque was hurt but even advanced kinetic force and lightning didn't kill it, this thing looked and acted like it had been made to be a weapon. It quickly corrected itself looking only barely dazed despite the damage its impregnable skin still intact and its unbreakable bones still in one piece. It quickly slashed at the meal that fought it more than others and hurt it so the meal would die and it would eat it needed to eat.

 

[Foxora]

He smirked "Yeah, I figured as much, you big ugly tank" he said now seemingly dodging the attacks. After it's last swipe he the creature's for leg, pulling out a heavy machine gun with ease and firing at the creature's face to distract it just long enough for it to it's back He pulled two swords, but they were different. they're blades were made of plasma. As stabbed them into a creature's hide.

 

[Karcen]

The blades bit deep though it took force to get into the creatures hide, that is something that should not happen, not in nature at least as even the strongest metals yielded easily to plasma. Still the tarrasque was far too big for the blades to hit anything vital from its back but with the blades stuck it quickly went into a roll determined to squash the pest on its back as it did so.

 

[Foxora]

It didn't matter whether it reached anything or not, His job was was he managed to stick a large metal looking Beacon into the wound and jump out of the way. "Your to proud how indestructible your skin and bounds are." He pulled up a holo screen and tapped and swiped at it at an alarming rate. "But like all leaving creatures. YOur insides are always the same." He watched as a few seconds later a large and devastating lightning bolt shot out form the sky and into the creature's open wound, courtesy of that beacon he stuck in it. Now, millions of volts of electric plasma was coursing through it's insides roasting it from the inside out. "Weak and vulnerable"

 

[Karcen]

The tarrasque should be dead, anything should be dead but it didn't stop moving, it wasn't dead in fact it was actually already slowly regenerating. This was not natural at all things recovered but this recovered fare to fast this was no natural monster. The tarrasque let out shriek right at Sebastian its breath easily creating winds of around 40 miles per hour seeking to blow him away.

 

[Foxora]

Sebastian was blown back but tumbled to his feet, He was pissed now that he thing wasn't dead yet.... but was smirking as well. "Whats the matter? Afraid of lil' old me now that you need to take a breather?" As he noticed it regenerating "I hope your still hungry.... Cuz I'm going in. His eyes were now glowing blue staring at the creature.... "Found it" before they reverted back to normal as he leaned far forward and sprinted back at the creature with harms sprawled out now showing that he was wearing metal gauntlets. "Lets go!"

 

[Karcen]

Blinded by pain and rage the tarrasque let the thing charge and it would slash with its claws so sharp they would be on par with the plasma blade. Everything about this creature had been made to kill as even as it got ready it was getting stronger healing it's insides and all it cared about was killing the things that caused it pain, it was just an animal after all so thought in such simple ways. When the thing was close it swiped at it with the razor sharp claws at least nicking the small creature.

 

[Foxora]

Sebastian just ran right through, excepting the cut he recieved from the slash. Eyes still on the prize. He leapt up, onto it's eye. "Hope this isn't important!" His gauntlets started glowing. He shoved one of them into the creature's pupil pulling it hard to one side making way for his other other gauntlet pull the opposite direction! "RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" He ripped open an opening to the skull. now charging up his bloodied fist, He began pounding away at the the exact same spot, over and over again, not a centimeter off.

 

[Karcen]

Yeah even something as mighty as a tarrasque couldn't exactly survive having it's skull torn open. Still it wasn't truly dead, it was dead in all conventional senses but whatever eldritch powers animated this nightmare creature kept it from true death so it would be said that it was slumbering for now in a death like sleep. One day it would get back up and it would hunger but that was years, decades or centuries away.

 

[Foxora]

Sebastian jumped off, finally realizing how tired he really was after hearing himself panting. after seeing the thing lay motionless..... "And Stay down... you.." He trailed off after remembering the reason for his rage and looked over to the crater, Ellie was stomped into. He rushed over ignoring everything else toward it.

 

[Karcen]

The body vanished seconds after Sebastian looked away ancient systems inside the world silently moving the body away and running ancient calculations to know if this worlds watcher should be awoken just yet as it one day would.


Back on the surface 84 was dead, or well about as dead as the tarrasque. She was in a deathless sleep as nothing more than a core, which was something that was normally in every part of a slime that only appeared when a slime was killed for long as it remained the slime could come back with enough water. This of course was almost impossible for anyone but a slime to know as their days of fighting and turning into cores was long over so it would seem she was dead for good and all that was left was the odd colored diamond hard stone.

 

[Foxora]

Sebastian knelt down and picked up the Core.... gripping it tightly... "I'm sorry".... He stood up with it, looking around him It didn't fully faze him when the beast was gone, his mind was on other things right now. He saw the in pieces headed over to it. pulling out a hover board he had in it, it was an emergency transport vehicle, not as fast as the jeep, but could runs for months if needed. He used it to ride his way back to camp, still looking at the core he held with regret.

 

[Karcen]

With the monster slain live did return to the forest, though nothing dangerous was out just yet that would take hours. The core remained slightly wet to the touch but there didn't seem to be any life in it, though perhaps with advanced technology she could be revived, that or a pitcher of water but that was far too simple and no one would remember that just adding water was an option. The advanced tools luckily were still at the camp they had not left yet.

 

[Foxora]

When he was at camp, he already seemed to have some sort of plan to mind as he opened up a holo screen and started gathering information as placed the core on a work table. He tuned everything else out.

 

[Karcen]

As Sebastian worked time passed minutes then hours as he poured over his plans and his tests as there would be many before he would try to bring Ellie back to life, one of the few who would even try on the world as slimes were common enough he could go buy another though she may be far less bright than Ellie. Still he worked and toiled ignorant of the easy way to bring her back from her seeming death.

 

[Foxora]

He sat back in his seat, He had requested alot of equipment that he implanted on the core and even altered her genetic make up in certain ways. He didn't want what happen last time to happen again.... now he sat there and looked at the "upgraded" core... what could he do to revive her now.... He couldn't do it the usual way for her, she was a slime... then a thought occured to him. He looked to his cup half full of water that he drank during his work on her.... he picked it up as his eyes started glowing blue and he poured on the Core, examining intently.

 

[Karcen]

The water Sebastian poured on the core at first seemed to do nothing but after a few second it turned and odd clear blue color, there wasn't enough for it to do anything or take any form just a slightly moving blob. Still it might now be obvious this was all he had needed to do , still one thing had no doubt stood out as he had altered her genetics they were far to organized they had some bits that were obviously selected at random but they rest was like a well scripted code. Either way the slime wiggled around the core seeking more liquid.

 

[Foxora]

He got up, "Ofcourse!" he picked up the core and ran over to one of the food containers, emptied it's contents into another one and dragged it along toward the river nearby, he placed the core in the container, and with a flick of his wrist, he suddenly held a tool that was looked like it could fire out some sort of liquid. He pulled out the container for the liquid and dumped it out. Whatever that stuff was sure did dissolve the ground it landed on a few feet down. He dipped it in, knowing that it wouldn't effect the river ecosystem as the water left the concoction nullified. So he was able to safely clean it out, and then use it to bail water into the container.

 

[Karcen]

As more water was added it changed color first it was the old blue of 84 then it became clear and the core seemingly vanished. The water soon stopped changing color at all and looked like just normal water as if the core had simply dissolved. That wasn't what was happening of course instead the core was working to restore 84 though it was no longer the same body and this would take a little time. Still if touched the difference would be obvious this water like substance was acidic, just like when she had eaten.

 

[Foxora]

After feelign like he filled it enough, he got a look at it, his eyes glowing blue once more, staring at the very liquid..... "right, right... just need uuuh..." he now dragged that now much heavier container back to camp. then dug into the ripping open all sorts of jerky and preserved meat he had and threw them into the blue liquid.
