Thrown into Confusion
The man awoke on a dark plain, his head pounding intensely
"Where am I?" He said to himself. Looking around, there was nothing but a vast plain as far as the eye could see. "How did I get here?" He said, very confused. The man tried to recall what had happened before he appeared in the middle of nowhere. A brief memory of him being thrown into a mysterious portal came to mind, but all the rest was blurred out. A spear laid a couple of feet away on the dusty soil. He went over and bent down to pick it up. Another memory flashed in his head. He had been fighting someone with this very weapon. Someone who was strong…stronger than anything he'd ever faced. The man tried to recall his foes face, but could not. His head suddenly burst into pain. Dropping to his knees, he grabbed a hold of his head with his hands. "Aaaahhhhh!" He yelled.
After moments of unbearable agony, the pain subsided. He rose to his feet, latching the spear to his back. "Doesn't matter what's happened, I need to find my way to civilization." Turning abruptly, he decided to head north.
After many hours of walking, the solemn man saw something in the distance. Taking a closer look, he noticed that, whatever it was, it was coming toward him. After a couple of seconds, the form started taking shape. It was a large green ogre type creature. The man slowly slid his hand around to his back and gripped the spear tightly. The creature stopped a few feet in front of him.
"My name is Khunbaba,"(note: Khunbaba is Phunbaba's brother, which was killed by Sabin and Celes.) it said. "I am in search of the ones who killed me brother. Are you he?"
"Sorry, but I do not know what your talking about," the man replied.
"What is ye name young knight?" asked the creature, seeing the man's plated armor.
The man was hesitant at first, but decided that if he told the ogre and it saw that he wasn't the one who killed his brother, he would leave him be. "My name is Kain."
"Hmm, truly you are not me brothers killer, for his name was Sabin. But on the other hand, I am quite hungry. Ye are the first thing I've seen in many weeks roaming these plains. All's fair and food, I say," Khunbaba smirked.
Kain readied his spear. Khunbaba lunged forward, knocking away the weapon with ease. The giant horned creature grabbed Kain by the throat and lifted him off the ground.
"I'm going to snap ye little neck," he smarted. "Ye won't feel a thing."
With immense force, Kain swung his feet to Khunbaba's chest and pushed off. This jolt of force sent the monster flailing to the ground, as did Kain.
"That was a good one, wee knight," Khunbaba replied, lifting up his bloated body.
"I'm not just any knight you foul beast, I am a Dragoon Knight." Kain side-rolled over to his spear and swooped it up. Khunbaba rushed in for another attack, but Kain leaped into the air. Khunbaba quickly looked up, but the suns brightness temporarily blinded him. The creature felt a sudden pain. Peering down, he saw a long pole jutting forth from his chest. Blankly staring forward, he toppled backward to the ground below. Kain gripped his spear and yanked it free of the corpse. "All's fair and death, I say, Khunbaba." Kain made a slight smirk then continued on.
