Chapter 13: The (A)X-F Pov

X-F Pov

Sigh... I've received an order from the matriarch to investigate and possibly dispose of a 'Male' that has taken the most dangerous route to the sacred 'Burial Site'.

The drop alone should've killed the Outsider out right since a pool' o' lava took up most of the room. But even so orders are orders and this sacred site could only be visited by 3 types of people.

*****************

Standard procedure:

The matriarch, The Priests, and The Guardian Elites, this being the case, using standard procedure, the Guardians would send their fastest asset to quickly put a stop to whatever might be at the sacred site, while the Two of the Five priests must follow and clean whatever is left at the Sacred Site be it dead or still kick'n.

Usually the Priests take their time getting from place to place, but when the Sacred Site is possibly being threatened they must use their spells that allow them to over come their physical Limits and follow after the Guardian. Though the spells are powerful the enhancement spells can only do so much and this the Guardian is always the one to arrive on the scene first to deal with whatever had intruded.

**************************

X-F Pov continue

And thus I continue to go down farther and farther.... Sometimes I wish the Sacred Site could be moved to a more convenient place, then it be easier to guard.

Just a little further and turn right here Then take the fork to the left, then take the far right path at the five forked paths and finally drop down through the third hole on the path and run through the entrance to the Sacre.... What the...

Before me a small intruder was floating above the lava. I hide my presence and began to observing the intruder. Then the intruder body began to float up and re-orient itself before floating to the far edge of the lava pool. The intruder started to move around and after pausing for a moment a flash of pure white light started to billow out of the intruder.

Whatever the intruder was intending to do must be stopped. I quickly move toward them and 10 paces from the target I activate my sacred gear. At five paces in the intruder begins to turn around, but they were to slow as my spear is already in motion. There was no way the intruder would be able to dodge and even less of a chance to survive. But just as my spear was about to take the head a light green muddy colored light takes over the white light and the intruder disappears.

Shit... I immediately pull back my arm and pull back towards the wall inboxed to prevent this enemy from taking me from behin.... I backed up into something, at first it was soft but then a horrible chilling spine tingling feeling touched my spine. I quickly react by whipping my tail around and used its centrifugal force to accelerate my attack with the shortest possible swing. But I only end up swinging at air, then that damned feeling returned but this time it was warmer and the spine Tingling feeling intensified. Oh for the love of, €%¥#€, why....!!! Just die damit. I swing again but this time in a slightly wider swing... And *swoosh* I just swing at the air again. Then ugh... It happened again... I need to end this now and move faster than I've ever ... Die!!!!

*swoosh*

Noooo... Aaaaah... I feel the tingling sensation... It starts from the points between my shoulder's, which shouldn't be able to feel so .... NO, ... I can't take this anymore...!!!!

And so I flee...

I force myself up into a jump and run, as I glance towards the lava pool... Maybe... Let's do it... I charge towards the edge as fast as I could... Just as I was about to reach the edge, the that freakish being did it at the worst possible moment... Before I could maneuver myself to do a throw I was practically shoved into the lava pool.

This is the end... I faile.... Guh... Nooooo... My Sacred Weapon!!!!

After receiving a heavy tug on my tail my body has pulled me from death.... But at the cost of my Sacred Item...

And just as I was going into shock the the ever chasing horror grabbed hold and the sensational tingling feeling intruded on me while I was in my most critical state... I tried to struggle but whatever held me in place was immovable. Yet it was so..... So .... soft...? Then I realized I couldn't move.. Why?!?!? Then this warm sensation starts to flood my gut... And from there it spread....

My chest feels tight and my head is getting cloudy as the tingling feeling begins permeate my hole body, it felt like something was coming... But I don't know what it is.... Whatever it was was almost here....

Then just as I was about to reach it the sensation stopped increasing and was slowly dispersing. Noooo.... I was so close... I....

And that was when I finally heard a very old and tired voice tell me, "My lady it was fun....

Fun!!! Yooooouuuuu ....

....while it lasted but I must be going now.

NOOOOO... Don't go... Let me finish too...!!!

Also I apologize for the loss of your tool

Shiiiiiiiit I can't believe I forgot about the Sacre....

While your moves T'was an interesting sight to behold but it isn't quiet enough to catch me off guard...

....

And since I had my way with you....

Wait....

I'll leave you a parting gift.

Wha.... WhwhwhawhaWhat did you bastar...

But here's a warning for you,

A warning yoooouuu...

my gift is very... Clingy and...

Clingy.....?!?!?!?

Doesn't like to be shared...

......

So decide while you still can..." And with those final words the freak harasser monster left like during the moment night turns into day, darkness just fades away.

For a little while thee tingling in my head and body abruptly disappeared, like it never happened to begin with.... Noooo.....!!!! You Bastard!!!! I'm gonna kill you with the full might of the guardians backing me up, you will die!!!

I need to get started right away and I also need to inform her majesty of this monstrosity before it causes,.... Huh?!?! What the heck just touched my... Oh Nooooo!!!! It was back again!!!! And this time my face was covered in the substance. And when I thought it couldn't get any worse.... It did... From my face the liquid substance spread quickly around my body....I was totally immersed... I was once more on my way to reach that feeling that left me slightly empty..... And angry. Then just as I was about to reach whatever it was the feeling disappeared ....

Again, It happened again.... Nyooooo!!!!! BEEP*BEEEEEEP*

[Author Translation ERROR (ATE) not applicable to humanic languages, thus it was applied with the BEEP* as you probably get the idea of what she could be saying right now since there are only a few times you the reader will hear this on TV or the Radio)

After releasing some her pent up stress she got up to observe here surroundings.

I gotta be careful that monster left something here.... I .... I ... Miss my Sacred Weapon.... Sniff*

As I was think about my lost weapon I started to feel that weirdly calmingly pleasant tingling feeling, in my hand, I look down at my hand and see a muddy green liquid bubbling up from my hand. The bubbly liquid started to expand and stretch ... And in a moment it takes the shape of my Sacred Weapon!?!

So then.... If I .... (Activates mechanism located in a hidden location) oh my.... The weapon starts up like silently even the odd clicking of the old switch was gone?!?

For a moment I think of the possibilities, then I realized, that monster lied!!! He tricked me and... And... No... No.... NoNoNoNONONO... It .... It tortured me then it .... Tricked me... Not just once but twice... Then....then uuugh .... No more.... I...I must get rid of this atrocious thing!!!!!!

(Tosses the monster's gift away)

For a bit I stare at it and remember what th-that th-thing did to me.... I will have my reveng.....??? What the???

('The Gift' Melts down into a puddle before it starts to swirl around and arou d on the ground....)

I get tense and prepared myself for whatever might happen.

And then it happened....
