[Nine Thousand Nine Hundred & Ninety-Five Years Ago] [Ymir POV]

I stood passively, watching in the distance as the ones we perceived to be humans wage war against eachother. While they did so, we also watched as they constructed what seemed to be walled homes for themselves to live in. I stared on, before mentally directing several of my lesser kin to strike at the humans. We watched on amused as the humans panicked at the sight of our lesser kin.

How fragile humanity was as their bodies were torn apart. We watched on as their numbers reduced to what may have been only several handfuls. In my case, the number of humans remaining would barely cover my blunted arm. Directing more and more of my lesser kin upon them, we continued to watch the slaughter.

Our lesser kin came upon in the forms of bears, wolves, and boar, though how I knew such information eluded me. Hyrm, having superior vision compared to the rest of us, spotted the humans pointing in our direction, though how they saw us I had no idea. We were perhaps thousands of meters away from them, so the chances of them spotting us were slim. Perhaps they realized the direction our lesser kin were coming from.

Whatever the case, the matter soon left my mind as we continued waiting, watching from afar as dozens of settlements were created, while watching as those same dozens of settlements were slowly destroyed either by our lesser kin or by their own hands. Soon enough, those settlements soon only numbered by the handfuls. What I did find surprising, however, was the fact that the humans were slowly but steadily finding ways to push back our lesser kin much to our shared annoyance.

Hyrm acted, using a hand to grab a cluster of our lesser kin, ones that resembled half-bird, half-lion. Swinging its arm back, it threw the clump towards one of the settlements, the clump breaking in midair. We watched on amused at the carnage, our lesser kin brought.


[Seven Thousand Nine Hundred & Ninety-Five Years Ago] [Surt POV]

I was getting antsy, my patience beginning to run out. I had believed the humans to die out two thousand years ago, however, it was not to be so. How annoyed I felt when I discovered how persistent they were, refusing to die out despite their disadvantages. I was about to suggest we finish the mission our creator had given us originally when she appeared.

Our creator looked upon us, before speaking.

"You are to all find a location and rest. When I call upon you, you are to awaken and wreak havoc upon the world." She commanded, before disappearing once more. We stared at eachother, before nodding. My idea of finishing the mission was forgotten almost immediately, as it was replaced with the need to please our creator. We slowly began to move, and do as we were told but paused.

We did so because there, mining at one of Hyrms' feet was a small cluster of humans, all ignorant of the others surrounding them. Hyrm immediately lifted his foot, briefly taking in the shocked and horrified human's expressions, before stomping on them. Hearing them die immediately brought a sense of bliss upon us all. Watching as my lesser kin gathered around Hyrms' foot, killing any human that survived, I felt an indescribable feeling rush through me.

Forgetting about our creator's orders, I stepped forward, the feeling intensifying and strengthening my intention. I took another step forward, before suddenly finding myself rushing towards the settlements. Hearing stomping behind me, I glanced back, finding the others following along. Facing forward once more, I noticed the human's looking in our directions, holding their metal sticks.

Once we neared them, they began throwing their metal sticks at us and began shooting tiny metal balls at us, much to my amusement. Holding a finger to one of the settlements and concentrated. Immediately, a ball of fire the size of my hand formed, before shooting forward, resulting in a massive explosion. What remained of the settlement was a giant smoking crater with what seemed to be only a few buildings left intact.

While I had destroyed one of the settlements, Thrym had smashed one of the walls of the settlement, allowing our lesser kin to pour into the area, slaughtering all of the humans. Gazing upon the destruction we had caused, I suddenly remembered the order our creator had given us. I then began to wonder how much destruction we could cause in ten years...


[Seven Thousand Nine Hundred & Ninety-Two Years Ago]

Over the course of the few years, the six of us had brought upon much destruction in our wake. We had garnered so much attention that now whenever we approached any human civilization, we had to actively chase them in order to lay waste to them. While we had readily done so, it had gotten to the point where about half of us was beginning to grow bored of such an activity.

In order to keep the humans terrified of us and amuse ourselves, we broke off several parts of our body, somehow forming smaller, but not inferior kin. Where there were six of us originally, now we were numbering within the hundreds. Some of our smaller kin had black ice or black stone covering themselves, and some had both. Some took the form of a turtle, a lion, a bird, and a tiger. Others took our forms, but smaller or resembled us but had traits of the other.

Whatever the case, we now had what was virtually our personal army to do our bidding. Sending them out in our stead, we waited for the upcoming carnage.


[Seven Thousand Nine Hundred & Ninety-One Years Ago] [Fructus POV]

We had separated from the others several months ago when we had come across a strange feeling. Curious about its nature, the two of us separated from the others on the pretense of investigating the matter. We had personally believed it to be perhaps another of our creator's creations but the feeling was a bit different from her own. Nearing the energy, I motioned for Ceterum to lower ourselves to the ground.

As we neared the ground, I spotted many of my lesser kin running about, chasing five humans. Every once in awhile one of the figures would turn around and fire what seemed to be an inferior and smaller version of some of our brothers' attacks. A human with bright orange hair turned and shot a stream of fire towards three of our lesser kin. Another with green hair jumped on the ground, creating a crack in the ground behind her, causing a few of our lesser boar kin fall into the earth.

A human with bright purple hair waved a hand at our lesser kin, sending them flying while the human with white hair waved their hand freezing them in the air, only for them to shatter upon reaching the ground. The final figure had white hair as well as they led the other four. Said figure stopped and stomped something onto the ground, causing the ground around them to rise, they included.

Unsure of what they were trying to do, but not willing to let them continue killing our lesser kin, I signaled Ceterum to drop me onto the ground. Splitting ourselves, I dropped to the ground before them, unfortunately crushing several of our lesser kin as well. Staring at them with all six of my eyes, I looked at them unblinking as they stared back shocked.

The second human with white hair, I noticed had long white hair growing from his face and carried a long wooden stick. Said human spoke something as a white orb formed above his wooden stick. Unsheathing one of my scythes, I swung downwards just missing the humans as the stone they were on veered to the side. Unsheathing another scythe, I swung it at them, only for them to dodge once more. The human finally finished speaking whatever language it spoke and aimed the orb at me.

It shot forward harmlessly dissipating against my armor. I looked at the human with one of my eyestalks, wondering what it was expecting as it looked at me shocked. Taking a step forward, I raised both scythes and moved to capitalize on the opening. Unfortunately, whilst it had stilled, shocked by my immunity to its attack, its four companions have not been idle.

The orange-haired human clasped its hands together, before slowly moving them away from eachother, an orange orb slowly growing in size. The one with green hair began rubbing its hands together, dirt slowly covering its hands. The purple-haired human took what seemed to be a deep breath, having felt a slight breeze past me. The first white-haired human began waving its hands in the air.

What happened next slightly shocked me, but ultimately left me amused. I had watched as two tornadoes formed between us, one being merged with fire, the other with ice, before both were somewhat mixed with stone, before pushing towards me. Staring at the nearing tornadoes, none of my eyestalks blinked as I casually swung one of my scythes to the side, effectively cutting their attack in half, dissipating it in the process.

Watching their shock and terrified faces brought me much amusement, however, no matter how much I want to continue watching such faces, it would be best to rid myself of them, lest they escape and become a nuisance in the future for the rest of our kin. Meanwhile, my lesser kin had remained motionless, having stopped upon realizing my presence. I could sense their impatience, each hoping to rend these humans apart, piece by piece. I wouldn't keep them any longer.

Taking a step forward, the tremor I made acted as a signal as hordes of my lesser kin shot forward. The five humans had shaken themselves from their stilled state, upon feeling the tremor and were already trying to escape. Mentally sighing to myself, I took another step forward, releasing yet another tremor. Being the large creature I was, each step greatly closed the gap between me and the humans. Already, I was within range with my scythes, one I capitalized.

Raising one of my scythes to the sky, I moved to swing it downwards, only for it to clash with an invisible wind. Confused, I tilted my eyestalks, looking from another angle as what seemed to be a green dome appeared around the humans. Still confused, I raised another scythe, before swinging it down once more. As with my previous scythe, I found myself not cutting through humans, instead, finding not one, but two scythes on a green dome that protected the humans.

My confusion soon turned to livid as I found myself angered by the fact I couldn't kill them. To make things worse, the human who erected the dome and its companions were slowly killing off its lesser kin. Angered by their attempts at survival, I pulled back both of my scythes, before swinging them back towards the sky. Glaring at the humans before me, I swung downwards. I found my anger somewhat dissipating as my scythes slashed through the dome, just barely missing the humans as they jumped away, their screams revealing their surprise.

I was going to continue chasing after the humans when I heard said humans yell in the air. The second human with white hair raised its wooden stick in the air as multiple white orbs flew from its tip. The orbs filled the air, forming what seemed to be a circle. While two of my eyestalks gazed at the orbs curiously, the remaining four stayed focused on the humans.

The one who had formed the orbs glared at me, before quieting. It closed its eyes for a moment before snapping them back open as it raised both stick and hand into the air. It spoke, no whispered a single word, one I heard clearly despite not understanding its meaning. The orbs in the air began to glow, gaining most of my attention, whilst gaining the sole attention of my lesser kin. The orbs dimmed momentarily, before exploding in a blinding light. My eyestalks flinched away from the sudden light as shining white pillars stood in place of the orbs.

I found myself stilled, unable to move as the stone beneath suddenly began to move on its own. My eyestalks widened as I watched the ground around me sink downwards. I tried to move my legs and scythes but to no luck. I was unable to do anything as water suddenly appeared, filling in the rapidly expanding hole. I couldn't understand the intent of the human until the water reached my leg joints.

The human intended to drown me. This realization was what returned control to my limbs. Swinging my scythes upwards, I struck still dry land near me and tried to pull myself out of the water. Unfortunately, the human's companions sought to drown me as well. Holding both hands forward, torrents of water spouted from them, filling the ever-rising water. To make matters worse, one of the five humans had stopped shooting water, instead, jumping into the air and swinging their arms to their sides, firing two massive arcs of wind.

The two wind arcs shot forward, unfortunately severing my scythes from my body. Releasing a roar of rage from between my plates, I revealed my second pair of scythes. I tried to balance myself so I could stab into the ground again, but I, unfortunately, was unable to as the sudden attack had left me unbalanced. As such, I found myself tumbling down the now deep hole, as water rushed down alongside me.

I heard the stone above me crumble and watched as my two severed joints float down to the ground near me. I couldn't do anything but growl in rage when I landed, the ground beneath me, still collapsing and sending me deeper and deeper underground. I tried to slow my descent, using my scythes to dig into the walls around me, but unfortunately, it was for naught, the earth having softened from mixing with the water.

As the light from above began to fade, I let out one final roar, this one being of rage and despair. Here I was, humiliated and trapped in this submerged hole, all done by a human of all things. To make matters worse, Fructus was likely wondering of my whereabouts and was likely to pursue the humans in the case that I wasn't found. If it did chase after the humans, I hoped it the best of luck and hoped it wouldn't fall into a situation like I had.

...I was beginning to feel strange. The deeper I sink into the hole, the more...drowsy I feel...

...Damn...To think this was how I would be beaten...

...Well...I suppose there isn't much else to do but...sleep...


Done.
