Kid Iapyx

I woke up in my room, yawning and not very excited for another day in my life in my village.

"Sigh* Bow…check, spare food…check, hunting equipment…check." I look at the crossbow my father gave me before he disappeared. He was a famous inventor who is known everywhere. Well not everywhere, but many places outside of my village. He made me a crossbow that have blade attached to it. … I know what you are thinking, not very impressive, but it does gather every bit of energy from the air it can and reshapes it to an arrow before launching it. My crossbow is probably not as powerful as an angelic weapon. Angelic weapons are only a myth. They are believed to be extremely powerful weapons usable only by angels.

In a forest named "that first forest", I hunt for wild animals for food with my trusty bow also made by my father. (No, it is not a special bow sadly) but …Yeah…That "first forest" does not sound like a worthy name does it…? The reason it is called "that first forest" is because it is said to be one of the fist forest to exist in this world. When I returned to my village, I put my regular bow on my back.

"Another normal day" I sighed while walking to the shop in my village.

"Come first, come lucky! The all new weapon technology Dyntos invented himself. This little arrow launcher allows you fire energy arrows straight out of it!" The shop owner said.

I become very interested as I asked "Why would I need it?"

"With this technology, you will be able to fire arrows rapidly without having to get more arrows out of a quiver AND you will have a limitless amount of ammo!"

"Is that so?" I said as I have flash backs of countless times I ran out of ammo when I really need it.

(Flashbacks)

Page shoots his bow and misses a tiger. The tiger cornered him. As fear stream through his golden brown eyes "Ah crap…" He said.

Page saw a bear behind him as he walked through the woods. The bear tried to hit him with his claws. Page ducked just in time to dodge. The bear's claw slashes the top of Page's black hair. He jumped back and was just about to shoot an arrow. When he reached for one, he realized that his quiver is empty and says "Ah crap…"

Page was sparring with his father using his bow. His father raises his hammer above him. Page side steps and was just about to shoot an arrow, but there was no more.

"…Ah crap" He said as the hammer smacks him down.

"So…what do you say?" The shop owner said excitedly.

"How much is it?" I asked.

"Just 2000 hearts!"

"Err…hearts?"

"Yes, hearts!" The shop owner smiled.

"And why can't I just pay regular money?"

"Because this is a perk created by Dyntos. When it comes to money, gods want theirs in hearts!"

"Okay, okay…jeez why do you yell all the time?"

"Because I have the right to! So is it a deal or not!?"

"It's not a deal. I do not even know how to get hearts."

"You can get them by fighting the forces of nature, the forces of light, the forces of nature army!"

I was pissed. "You do know you are talking to a human being right!? How can I possibly defeat enemies like that!?" I shouted.

"Heheheh, find a way to defeat some before somebody else buys it. I only have one."

I was definitely not worried about that, but I have to find a way to buy that thingy. I just took a long stroll in the forest to calm down.

"There must be some way to get that new thing. Even if I can stand up to armies that serve gods, why would they come here…?" I said to myself.

As soon as I got done talking, I saw three strange looking people collecting something. When I got closer, I saw that they have a rock head (literally), with vine legs. The strange figures looked my way and started to glare. It was not me they are glaring at; it's some kind of angle that was really big and buffed.

I was about to freak out, but the large Angel kept me quiet by saying "Be quiet, they are a part of the army named forces of nature." He then suddenly charges towards one of the strange monsters. When the angle got close enough to one of the soldiers, he powerbombs him!

I then realized, the angel said those things are forces of nature soldiers. Don't they drop hearts when defeated? After the soldier died and disappeared into some kind of glowing leafs, I saw hearts! I knew it was not many, but I jumped out of my hiding spot and rush towards them anyway. I was just about to reach my hand out, until I reached too much and fell on my face. It felt like I slid a few feet, but it hurt never the less.

I got up rubbing my face which was in serious pain and looked around me to find myself in the middle of the fight between the one angle and two forces of nature soldiers.

"Uh…hello?" I said with fear racing through my heart.

I turned around to see one of them trying to hit me with some sort of staff. I jumped back got my bow and shot an arrow at that freak! The arrow did hit, but from the looks of it, it barely did anything against it. It did distract it enough to leave itself open to the angle's second power bomb attack. Meanwhile the last soldier was waving his wand. When he got finished, the buff angle had a blackish like aura around him. It did not stop him from charging again. He did finish the last soldier, but was suddenly turned into a watermelon with legs! I heard a squeaky noise to my right. When I looked in the direction I heard it, a saw an watermelon coming right at me. I dodged it just in time to see some kind of wizard with a watermelon as a head!

I knew my arrows was not going to do much against him and just decided to retreat, but everywhere I ran, he teleported to. I was just about to try my magical crossbow, but the watermelon effect the angle had must have worn off because he came out of nowhere, and once again, powerbombs his target.

"You're starting to get real predictable" I said thanking the god of mercy.

He just glared at me and flew away. I was impressed that he was able to fly with those tiny wings on his helm. Citizens of my village always told me about an angle who haves four feet long wings, but ironically cannot fly on his own. Now that I saw the angle that had help me before, I know why they say the word "Ironic". I realized he was flying towards my village.

"I hope that does not mean that there are more of those guys at my village." I thought to myself running in the same direction the angle flew.

When I got to the point where I can see my village, it was being invaded by green creatures that were made out of…plants? I realized I do not have time to figure that part out and just decided to charge in the village. I saw tons of ugly monsters. I was able to do little damage to them with my crossbow, but it was taking WAY too long to finish them. One of them had a target on its face and tried to shoot me with seeds that explode when it touches the ground! I was not just charging, I was heading for a specific place. If that new arrow launcher thingy doesn't hurt them, I don't know what will.

When I got to the shop I saw it in, I realized the old man selling it was gone, BUT the good news were the fact the new thingy weren't. I attached it to the string on my bow, and then pulled it. When I released it, the arrow launcher did create the arrow, but did not launch it on its own. It used the force from the string of my bow to do it!

"Creative," I said to myself.

The arrow the thingy created did go slower than normal arrows, but it was way bigger! When it hit one of the evaders, it defiantly made them flinch. I quickly pull the string again, but the arrow was not as big as before. It did finish the creature with the rock head and vines I hit the first time. I was pondering at the fact that happened. The arrow launcher flashed a bright yellow color. I stared at it again, and then shoot another energy arrow. Sure enough, it was another big arrow.

"So I just have to wait until the arrow launcher flashed yellow." I explained to myself.

I was about to start going wild until I saw a gigantic woman who looked about eight.

"You human scum doesn't deserve to live in the first forest to exist. No longer will you litter, destroy and hurt the forest! I'm here to minimize the life span of your short, miserable lives!" The gigantic woman said.

"I-it's Viridi!" A villager said.

"What, Viridi?" I thought

I could not believe the situation my villagers and I was in. I was about to assume that all this is just a dream and all I had to do is close my eyes, but I confirmed that this is real as a giant boulder lands near me and creates a shockwave that knocks me to the ground.

"Paaain…." I groan as I shake my head to figure out my location.

When I turned around, I saw a walking boulder that had glowing red eyes. When he reached his hand up, I already knew what the golem was about to do next. It looked at me as if it was mocking me and how weak I was. As much anger as I felt, I knew it would be pointless to try and defeat him. He slams his arm on the floor attempting to crush me. I moved out of the way in time to get back up on my feet.

"I'm getting sick of this" I said to myself.

The giant boulder started to charge at me. I was about to retreat when a blue light soared straight through it. I thought it was an arrow, but then I saw wings. The boulder exploded and I did not see who that was, but I do not have time. I have to find a way out of the village! (One that is not blocked)
