The Five Kings: First Step

Hopian 49 - Metal Vs Metal

Last chapter, in order to regain her lost pride Karia charges at and attacks the mayor of Birzion. A fight occurs with each party pulling off significant attacks- however Virile ends up overpowering Karia. As she is at her weakest Virile swings her upwards, and starts to spin himself around while he drags Karia along with him. He finally releases her- but it turns out that his plan was to launch Karia into the hard metal of King Metallica.

Seric's P.O.V.

After dropping my knife into the sand I'm currently squeezing my eyes shut and looking to the side, just painfully waiting to hear the cracking of Karia's bones against my robot "pals" metal hands.

However, the sound never comes. "...What?" I say to myself with hope, and looking back towards the scene I can see that Karia is in fact still intact, and is resting in-between King Metallica's hands horizontally like a sandwich.

"With that little time he had he found the one way to catch her safely! Holy shit he's amazing!" I think to myself in admiration as he gently lowers her to the sand.

"Nice catch man! Is she alright?" I ask as I run towards him, temporarily forgetting about Virile who's still standing and recovering with his stern face due to the beast of a robot I have with me.

"Why thank you pal, I'm sure you'll be just as cool and glorious someday! After all knowing how to catch her came from trail and error from my many years ya know! Anywho I think she'll be 100 percent perfectly A-ok, isn't that right pal #2?" King Metallica asks with some concern as he waves his hand frantically over Karia's irate and squinting face fast enough to produce some wind.

"Fucking hell, this dizziness is worse than a goddamn hangover... Mmph!" Karia mumbles until she grunts and turns herself onto her side, until she makes a few not-so-girly sounds and throws up onto the sand.

"Gross..." I think to myself as I turn my head away- but nonetheless I guess I'm glad to see she still has her "spirit" I guess you could say.

"These injuries aren't shit but God do I want to die from that spin... You guys didn't see that just now... Got it?" Karia complains and threatens us as she thankfully keeps her head turned away from us now.

"See I told you pal, she's perfectly fine!" King Metallica says as he pats the side of her face, causing her to mumble a quiet "stupid bot" I think at least. Just gonna hope he didn't hear that.

King Metallica then springs back upwards, dusting off his palms as he says, "Now then, this big I.D.I.O.T. seems pretty darn tough, so how about me n' you get started on whittling him down a bit huh? I'm sure that you would appreciate that, right insolent P.A.L. #.2?" King Metallica says in a passive aggressive tone as Karia turns her head looks up at him. Not but a second later he takes a step forward and "accidentally" hits Karia's face with the instep of his foot, causing the side of her face to be squished into the sand as King Metallica continues to walk towards Virile.

"Pfft so he did hear her, I feel bad but that was still pretty funny..." I think to myself with a slight laugh.

"Hmph. I told you, when it comes down to it you women always need a man to lean on! Look at you, after all that talk this is what you truly are! Why can't you understand, I'm trying to save you damn it!" Virile shouts in disgust as he catches his breath.

"...Hey, you guys. The fight was getting boring, so... get in there and spice it up a little for me yeah?" Karia says loudly with her remaining strength as she rests her face on the sand and looks away from us.

"...She's so obvious... Heh, I'm glad that she didn't let that bastard hear what he wanted to though." I think to myself with a slight grin and zone out.
