4:First Fight
"I'm surprised how quick Iceberg healed!" Aeroslash told me, "The only thing I worry about is how sick he's been acting. I also wonder why the pie I made just disappeared."
"Heh! I know he devoured the thing! He always does that!"
"Oh…other than that he's fine!" Aeroslash assured me.
"'Course I am!" Iceberg commented.
"I though I…."
"You're crazy if you think I'm gonna sit in direct sunlight! So, I found this shady tree, and…."
"Simmer down! You're 'bout to fight, 'ya know!" a voice called, "The name's Spike!"
I gritted my teeth and swung my fist behind myself.
"Wanna fight, girly?" he taunted.
I spun around to see a lavender hedgehog wearing a leather belt holding a gun. His large tooth stuck out of his mouth and a cowboy hat was perched on his head.
"She ain't girly!" Iceberg spat and charged toward him. Spike whipped him away with his tail.
"I'm gonna hurt your sorry butt!"
Spike yanked his gun out of his belt and pressed the trigger. I leapt in front of Iceberg. The speeding bullet pierced my chest and I felt hot, sticky liquid pour onto my chest fur. I gasped for air and stumbled to the ground.
"Poor babe!" Spike joked before my sight failed.
"You okay?"
"I am. I just yearn for reasons!"
"You better get up. The battle's almost over."
I stood up and nodded to Iceberg. He darted toward Spike and kicked him off balance. I clenched my fist and unleashed violet Gaia energy. I summoned the energy forward. Before I even thrashed the energy forward, the energy already trapped Spike. Spike cursed wildly. Iceberg froze him with a touch of his ice cold hand.
"It's a trick everyone on the tundra use….."he boasted.
"Well, um….impressive."
"Thank you."
