Chapter V
The Beast, Part II.
Rune got up on his feet, and tried to run in. However, the dragon burned him to a crisp multiple times. "Aagggg. You will pay, dragon! AAaaah!" Rune got up and ran far away.
"Pip! Support! Cast Shifta and Deband, I have a plan!"
"Alright, but be careful!" Pip stopped casting barta for a second and cast Shifta and Deband to power up Rune. He then resumed casting bursts of Barta at the beast.
"Alright! Now I can kill him! Let's goooo!" Rune yelled, as he ran right in front of the beast.
"What are you doing! You'll get yourself killed!"
"No, I know what I'm doing!" Rune yelled back. He then took his arms and crossed them in front of each other. He made his hands into fists, and stood in his battle stance, with his right leg in front and his left in back. "Now, let's go! Gimme all you got, beast, I'm not scared of youuu!"
The dragon got very mad at Rune, and burst out the biggest blast of fire he had ever burst. Rune stood back with his position. "Come on, give me all you've got!" he yelled.
The fire came toward Rune, all of the power, and then, when it hit Rune, it turned around.
"What's this mysterious power?! Why don't you tell me!" Pip yelled,
Rune held on, and the fire hit the dragon with full power. The dragon fell down. All of the blood, but it was worth it. The dragon had been defeated. Pip and Rune had completed their exam. They had passed, and they had survived.
"We did it, Pip!"
"We sure did." Pip smiled back.
"I may have lots of wounds, but we passed!"
"Yah!"
"Now, let's go,"
"Yah, we should... We won't be able to survive if we have all these wounds."
The two young hunters walked into the warp. When they arrived at the school, 4 days later after healing their wounds, they received very good news.
"Congratulations, you two. Hunter Rune, Force Pip, you have achieved the highest score for the exam in history! I know that you can both grow up to be great hunters. You two are two of the few people who have passed the test. Congratulations, and." the teacher said.
Rune jumped up. "Does that mean that we don't have to go to school ever again?"
"Uhhh. No!" the teacher smiled.
"Damnit! We don't need any learning!" Rune mumbled.
"Well. It's not really learning. More like training! And. I will be your instructor from now on. You will train and train until you have become much stronger and smarter. Until I think you are ready to take your final exam. The Lost Temple of Ragol."
"The Temple of. Ragol?"
"We never learned about that place." Rune said. "We've only learned about Forest, Caves, Mines, and. Ruins."
"There are many places you haven't learned about yet. You really didn't think that it was just Forest, Caves, Mines, and Ruins, did you?"
"Well." Rune replied.
"There are many forests and caves and ruins and mines out there. Those are just the basics. Remember, Forest, Caves, Mines, and Ruins is only around 1/50th of Ragol. Forest, Caves, Mines, and Ruins are just names of the Ragol Forest, Lava Caves, Storm Mines, and Ragol Ancient Ruins."
"Now I remember! I've heard of those places before. Ragol Forest, the place where all beginners start out. Lava Caves, the dark caves, the habitat of the dangerous and legendary Skull-Worm, De Ro Le." Pip whispered.
"Yes, you are correct, Pippin." The teacher replied. Pippin blushed. "Get a lot of sleep over the weekend. On Monday, we will start our real training. We will train at the forest, first."
"Again?!" Rune whined.
"Yes, again. You had some trouble with it, everybody does, in the exam. We'll train there first, until it's a walk in the park for you."
Rune got up on his feet, and tried to run in. However, the dragon burned him to a crisp multiple times. "Aagggg. You will pay, dragon! AAaaah!" Rune got up and ran far away.
