Apokolips. 6 years later. Open area
"But i don't what to kill it!" Yell the little Thanagarian that was Shayera Hol, the oversize mace in one hand. She was yelling about not wanted to kill the dog laying in front of her.
"Do you what a another beating, dear?" 'Ask' one Granny Goodness, with Darkseid looking on. This was a part of Shayera training. Training to be his champion. Each of his Elite was to train her to a master of each of they fields, but she must not die. He already put 6 years into this. To have her die now would be a great waste of time, and he been down a Elite, or two. He also needed Shayera to be more...independent. Whine her loyalty to him was of great importance. Darkseid needed her to be more flexible, and free thinking so she can be the warrior he wanted. A risk? Yes, but he did not become Darkseid and not take risks.
"No! But he done not a thing wrong, Granny! Daddy! Help!" She call to her 'father' Darkseid thought of something. 'Yes, Granny Goodness, why don't we gave her something to 'help.' At first, Goodness was a bit confused, but then realize what her Lord meant. Smiling, she took out a needle, fill with a little something, and injected it into the dog.
"Um...what's Granny doing?" And then Shayera got her answer. The dog jump up, it's eyes was now blood red. It's teeth was like knives. It was now twice it normal size, and it look at Shayera. It charge at the poor, little Thanagarian. "Ah!" Shayera try to run away, but the mad dog jumps on her. "Daddy! Help!" She call for help, but does not a thing. Same for Granny Goodness. They do not help. Just watch. Shayera needed to do this on her own.
"Help!" She cry out, as she try to hold the mad dog back, but her strength was failing. As a last resort, she takes her mace and bust it into the head of the dog. It goes down, but Shayera keep on beating it, till they was no head. As she clam down, the little Thanagarian drop her mace, and let out tears. Darkseid was pleased by this. "Very good, my Daughter." The New God said to his 'Daughter .' "But Daddy! I kill it!" She kept on crying. "Yes, but it attack you. This is your lesson. Attack first before your foes attack first.
Apokolips. Year 7. VR Training Facility.
Darkseid was overlooking the virtual reality battle before him. It was Shayera vs Vundabar. And What a battle.
So far, the Thanagarian had show to have a great mind for strategy, and such. She had won minor battles, but not a major one againstVundabar. This might be the case before him.
Here was the layout of the battle: Shayera was to defend a major city on a river, and Vundabar was to take it. His force move from the south and west, bombing the city and then sending out the tanks, and such. So far, half the city had falling, but Vundabar had lost a bit of his men. The battle could go either way.
Now, it looks to be that Shayera had pick to abandoned city. Darkseid did not like this action. If she was to be her warrior, she must let her foes any was then, that the little Thanagarian use her little surprise. She had already blow up the bridge to slow down Vundabar army, but this was her true ace. She had put charges in the metro's, and high buildings. When she push the button, and all hell happen. The ground fell out from Vundabar army, sending them to they doom. It was after this, did Shayera army came back, and attack. In the end, win for Shayera army.
As Vundabar goes out to blow some steam about loosing to a 7 year old, Shayera just smile at her win.
So did Darkseid.
OOC: Shorter? Yes, but still, i hope you like it.
