AN EVENING WITH THE BLOODBEAST
Ash and Gary stood up, staring in horror at the most repulsive creature either boy had ever
imagined. Coverd in tough, vicious-looking spikes, the horriffic Bloodbeast was a fearsome
sight to behold. Grotesquly obese, the venomous creature flopped around arkwardly in it's
pool of vile, disgusting slime. Toxic fumes rose from the pool, making Ash retch. Gary held
Ash to his chest, patting his head comfortingly.
"Oh, God," he murmured. "This is disgusting." Then he looked down at Ash. "Don't be scared,
Ash. We can do this. We can win. Here." He reached into his backpack, withdrawing two
scrolls and handing one to Ash. Ash pocketed the scroll and leaned up to kiss Gary.
"Good luck," he whispered. Both boys drew their swords and advanced into the dim light.
The bloodbeast noticed them instantly, roaring in anger and lashing out with it's
scorpion-like tail. Gary leapt to the side, dodging the vicious stinger and swiping his
sword at the tail. He missed and the bloodbeast took another stab at him, the sting missing
the boy by inches.
Ash took a moment to get his bearings. Then he lunged forward, and began to hack at the
bloodbeast's face in a desperate attempt to peirce it's real eye. The fearsome beast roared,
turning it's attention to Ash and trying to stab him with it's tail. Ash ducked and dodged,
stabbing away at the vile monster's face, determined to kill it. He heard a slicing sound
and realised with a thrill of admiration that Gary had sliced the beast's tail off. The
bloodbeast spun round, trying to clasp Gary in it's blood-filled jaws. Both boys stabbed
viciously at the creature's face, amazed that the beast didn't seem to feel any of the blows.
It swung round, butting Ash in the stomach and he cried out as the breath whooshed from his
lungs. The bloodbeast butted him again, sending him flying backwards. Then it turned back
to Gary. Ash dragged air into his lungs. Then he jumped back up, lunging at the monster
again. The Bloodbeast roared angrily. Then, it's tongue lashed out, trying to wrap round
Gary's ankle. Gary dodged,stabbing desperately at the beast's eyes. The monster's tongue
whipped out again, wrapping round Gary's leg and and dragging him to the floor. His sword
slipped from his hand and Gary began to panic, trying to wrench the tongue from his leg with
his bare hands. Ash lunged forward, bringing his sword down on the tongue and slicing it
in half. Gary quiclky jumped back up and continued to assault the Bloodbeast's face. As he
hacked away, Ash realised something. He was never going to see the light of day again.
There was no way he and Gary could survive this hellish dungeon. As the thought filled his
head a sadness greater than death filled Ash's heart. He was jerked back to the present when
he felt a great pressure on his foot. Looking down he realised the Bloodbeast had clamped
it's fearsome jaws round his ankle. Screaming in terror, Ash stabbed instinctively at the
creature's face. More by chance than by design his sword pierced the unholy beast's real
eye. The Bloodbeast instantly released Ash's foot, howling in agony and thrashing around in
it's pool before slowly sinking below the oily surface. Ash weakly slumped against Gary's
body, sighing softly. Gary wrapped his arms round Ash's waist, kissing the crown of his head.
"Well done," he whispered. "I'm proud of you." Ash murmured, tilting his head and searching
for gary's lips with his own. Their lips weilded in a blazing kiss and when they seperated
Ash smiled at Gary.
"I guess we should be going," he murmured. Gary shook his head.
"Not till we find this 'Dragon's Treasure'." Ash pointed at a large chest that had
matierealised nearby.
"You mean that?" Gary walked to the chest, smashing the rusty padlock with a
well-aimed kick. opening it, he found two gleaming red swords and two potions.
"That's treasure?" Gary smiled at Ash, holding up one of the potions.
"Maybe not, but this is certainly worth a lot to us." Ash looked at Gary questioningly.
Then he yelped as the older boy pounced on him, pressing him into the floor and opening
the bottle.
Loud screams and cries echoed down the dark tunnels and dank caves of Deathtrap Dungeon,
but for the first time in the Dungeon's history they were screams of pleasure, not pain, as
Gary made love to Ash deep in the heart of Deathtrap Dungeon.
Gary handed Ash one of the red swords, sheathing his own and tucking the spare potion into
his backpack. He pulled Ash close for a kiss, smothering the smaller boy with passion.
Then they seperated and walked to the large doors that seemed to be the only exit, reading
the plaque next to them.
"You have battled your way through Deathtrap Dungeon like a titan. Now, at last, the end of
your quest is in sight. Or your own end. For this will be the ultimate battle. Melkor the
Red Dragon. Beyond him lies freedom, wealth and unimagined glory. All you have to do is kill
Melkor. Simple, eh?" Ash looked up at Gary.
"Do you think this is really the end?" Gary kissed Ash again, then frowned.
"I don't know, but there's only one way to find out." Gripping each others' hands tightly,
the two boys stepped through the doors...
