Played Twice By a Monkey
It had been exactly two days since Mane and Lily agreed to stay for a while, and it was time for them to leave. In the Dark Valley, a place where the light of the sun never shone, the concept of time could be tricky and it was almost impossible to discern how many hours or days a person spent exploring it. But Mane and Lily embarked upon this journey, one fraught with mystery, with a pocket watch, so that wasn’t a problem. Mane and Lily had done as they had said and now that two days had passed, they couldn’t afford to waste any more time. They had to get the Revival Grass to Lam. But before that, there was a situation that needed diffusing.
“Why do you have to fight?” Lily had a worried expression on her face as she addressed Mane. Mane was right next to her, but his focus was on the blades he was retrieving from his backpack.
“Apparently I need to prove that I am strong enough to protect Silver in the outside world,” Mane smiled bi

Without waiting for the monkeys to make the first move, Mane seized the initiative. Feeling up the stones in his hands, he quickly counted them. They were four. A lucky coincidence or planned genius, it worked out just fine for Mane who quickly spread the stones and lodged a stone in between his knuckles. Then he flung all four at once, each to a different location.*Pew**Pew**Pew**Pew*The stones flew through the air like mini rockets, each coated with Mane’s superior and pure energy. Before the monkeys could react the stones had already reached their targets, and four of them were struck squarely on their heads.*Bang**Bang**Bang**Bang*Four Crystal Monkeys were sent crushing into the ground, all of them unconscious. Till the very last scene of their consciousness, they didn’t see what exactly it was that knocked them out.*Roar*It was at this point that Number 1 recovered his wi

*Bang* The first beast Mane crashed into was Number 1. The giant ape was almost as large as Silver, and he wasn’t about to be done in so easily. Mane’s fists only found Number 1’s arm guards. And though Mane’s fists were several times smaller than Number 1’s fingers, his punch was ferocious. Number 1 was sent skidding back several meters, and his arms shook violently due to the powerful after effects of Mane’s devastating strike. Number 3’s eyes flashed with an ominous light, and he struck at the currently defenseless Mane. His large fists that were greater than Mane’s torso approached the Supreme rapidly, and as his fist tore through the air the sound of small explosions could be heard. Streams of inner energy bound themselves to his large hand as it was sent smashing into Mane! Number 4 wasn’t idle either. When Number 3 moved, Number 4 also moved. He was a tad bit slower since he was a stage weaker than Number 3, but his reactions were precious. Unlike Numb

“Can you not be so smug about it?” Hildegarde smiled wryly and said. She had been on Mane’s shoulder the entire fight and hadn’t moved an inch away from her favorite spot. Not even when Absolute Darkness showed a different side of itself did she move. She was there the entire time.“Why should I not be?” Mane replied. Since he had been thrust into this situation by Silver’s mother, there was no way he wouldn’t taunt her about her first failure when it presented itself so grandly.“What if she gets mad?” Hildegarde asked.“She’s a 5th stage Heaven Realmer Hildegarde. I can still handle her. As long as she isn’t at the 8th stage it should be fine.” Mane waved Hildegarde’s worries away and said. He could handle a wielder of average battle talent at the 7th stage of the Heaven Realm at best. The Emerald Crystal Monkey was at the 5th S

Mane’s hair turned red, and so did his eyes. A pitch black aura engulfed him, but unlike before it didn’t carry the dread of darkness; it expressed a different kind of dread. It carried the dread of war and battle, and it smelt of unbridled power. As if that wasn’t enough, blue flames engulfed Mane’s entire body, intermingling with the black aura. The temperature of the flames was so high that the walls of the cave began to crack and burn!*Vroom*Mane’s aura climbed up steadily. His strength crept up the hill of power with indomitable will and desire, and as his aura grew stronger, the cave began to shake. When he told Hildegarde he could possibly fight against a 7th Stage Heaven Realmer, he had done so in consideration of all his skills. Without Takeover or True Flames, he was incapable of handling even 6th stage Heaven Wielders. With them, everything was very different.Silver’s mother furrowed her bro
Hunters: The Prequel Lightning Mane
Accompanying the roar of the Monkey Queen was a huge change in her aura. The intimidation her aura carried grew much greater, and the earth armor she wore became shinier. The cannons on her shoulder were engulfed by a golden yellow light, and when the light receded they had grown bigger and a tad longer.The earth drones also underwent a change. Two more wings grew on each drone, and they became at least three times faster than before. A golden light appeared in her palms, and a long beautiful golden rod was formed. The weapon looked dense and highly destructive. It had a different feel to it – the rod. It didn’t feel like something that had been fashioned right this minute, but a weapon that could be summoned at any time. After all, both Mane and the Monkey Queen had the same level of proficiency with earth, and Mane knew that to do something like this was highly improbable. To create a weapon that could give off such an aura comparable to a high grade weapon was

As if a trigger had been pulled or a wheel cap turned, countless light fragments flew to Mane and drowned his entire figure in light. Several small explosions rang out as Mane was baptized in the light of the tree that never went out. Along with his baptism came the dimming of the light in the cave as the Light Tree slowly gave up its essence, much to the alarm and dismay of the Emerald Crystal Monkey Queen.*Roar!*Unleashing a loud roar filled with fear and anxiety, she rushed towards Mane, the two drones that surrounded her moving even faster than she was. She disregarded her huge size and darted towards the Supreme, not worrying about the fact that her actions were causing the cave to become more unstable or that she was bumping into the ceiling so many times. Her goal was to get to the one who wanted to rob them off their means of growth.“Prideful Sword: Dance of the Half-Moon”A calm voice contrary to the anxious state of the Monkey Que

There were three people on their way out of Dark Valley. Of the three, only two rode mounts. The other followed on foot. Yet it effortlessly kept up with them. The three were a dashing teenage boy, a beautiful teenage girl, and a giant Crystal Monkey. In front of the group of three was a floating flower that lit up their way and gave them an idea of where to go.“We are almost out,” Mane exhaled a small breath of air as he spoke.“Yes,” Lily smiled gracefully and nodded her head.*Roar*Silver who was walking right behind them roared in excitement. He had been trying to leave Dark Valley for a very long time. However, he had no idea where the entrance of the valley was since he was born here. So he had never been able to leave. Now he could so it was natural that he was so excited.As they neared the entrance of the Dark Valley Mane was filled with a bit of relief – relief born from knowing that they had accomplished t

Camila struggled to shake her mind awake. She was a veteran warrior of the Barbarian race and a lover of battles. She had been through many difficult situations, and had come out of all of them a survivor. This situation was no different. Her experience proved a vital resource as she quickly made the wisest decision.“Attack now! Forget capturing him. Kill him!” Camila ordered, and the eyes of the Barbarians somehow became even redder. They were already harboring hatred for this human boy who had not only kept them waiting, but had indirectly caused the death of several members of their race. Twelve of them rushed towards Mane with a recklessness that was born from their pent up frustrations. All of a sudden the boy who had felled their colleague with nothing but a two word command was not so threatening. Mane looked expressionlessly at the group of barbarians jumping at him; all manner of weapons held in their hands. Of the 12, only two were Nightma
