Death of Shabranigdo
The next morning Valoon walked out of the cave the crippled
dog in his arms. " Don't worry boy, I get us to Seyruun, there we
can find someone to fix you up good as new." He said reassuringly to
his new friend. The dog wagged its tail happily and licked the kind
hearted over grown warrior in the face. At this Valoon giggled
uncharacteristically. " You know boy, you remind me of another puppy
I met once. He certainly wasn't as nice as you are but I remember him
well. Would you like me to to tell you about him?" He asked the dog.
The dog nodded slightly, almost as if it understood him. " Well then,
it all started when ...."
(Insert flash back effect)
He had been traveling from town to town trying to find a building
that he could rent to start his very own (Dramatic pause) PET SHOP!
The inspiration had come to him in a dream. There had been rolling
thunder and bright lights. A large figure appeared before him in a
puff of smoke. The god-like being spoke to Valoon about peace and
tranquility, and the need for a hero to do something, something that
would stop the endless violence. This deed called for a brave soul,
a person willing to sacrafice his very existence for the greater good.
This person would also require a strong sense of direction and a heart
of gold, a name that would make the earth tremble and sky fall to it's
knees.
" Yeah so?" Valoon had replied, laughing with gusto. He sat
down on a boulder to rest.
The holy being raised an eyebrow in confusion, and he did it as
though it was his first time doing so in his entire existence. He
sat down by Valoon, who had since begun eating a banana, and tried to
explain to him the crisis that was at hand. Valoon sat and twiddled
his thumbs as the godly figure went on, talking about some evil thingy
called Shabra-whatsit.
Several hours after the godly figure had begun relating his tale about
the dreaded Shabranigdo he realized that Valoon wasn't paying attention,
Instead of blasting him to his death, the being ran off in a saddened
state, muttering things like " My life sucks." and " No one loves me."
After being freed from the God's boring explaination Valoon continued
on his way to Atlas City.
He had not been too far from Atlas City, when he accidentally
strayed from the road, he had been trying to come up with a good
name for his pet shop.
Much to his surprise he found himself in the
middle of a struggle for the future of the entire planet. Of
course, he didn't understand what was going on in the slightest. All
he saw was three people that appeared to be playing with a large
puppy dog, but there was one that caught his eye. She appeared
to be the most beautiful woman in all creation.
Her yellow hair seemed to glimmer in the sunlight
[though there was no sun out]. Her light blue eyes sparkled so
innocently as she wielded a sword of the same color.
She wore a blue shirt and a pair of blue pants, a black breastplate
with paldrons and a pair of boots that came to mid leg. She gracefully
attacked the large puppy but failed to harm the beast. Valoon stared
her, longingly. " She is so beautiful." he sighed sitting on the
ground, holding his head in his hands. " I must know her name!" he said
jumping to his feet in excitement. Folding his two hands together under
his chin, he seemed to float into the air with joy. His eyes shone with
a happiness few mortals had ever felt. " I'll defeat that puppy dog for
her and she will thank me for my bravery and comment on my strength."
He said flexing his muscles, as he admired himself.
Just then the young red haired girl shrieked falling to the
ground after being struck by the puppy. Valoon, fearing that the same
might happen to his "beloved" charged forward, sword drawn and held in
of him. Unfortunately, he was many many yards away and had to stop to
catch his breath. This gave the beast time to down the "stone man",
crushing him beneath his large puppy foot. The dog rushed toward the
beautiful blonde haired battle maiden in anger as though to tear her
to shreds.
"Nooooooo!" Cried Valoon, tears streaming from his eyes as he
ran faster than he ever had before, ready to plunge his sword into the
demonic puppy's gut. But he was too late. The love of his life fell to
the ground in a lifeless heap of armor and flesh. Enraged by the death
of his beloved, Valoon ran the beast through with his blade. The creature
growled angrily, its body went limp and toppled over landing on the brave
Valoon. Trapped under the large mass of puppy like substance, Valoon was
in severe pain. After a long struggle he was finally able to pull himself
out from under the beast and stumbled to his feet.
