The Homunculi Games

Two Unlikely Foes

Lust was sick of the woods. She had been walking through them for what had seemed like forever. She had kept on walking, but there didn't' seem to be an end to all these trees. She had no idea what direction she was going in. West, east, north, south, did it even f*cking matter anymore? She just had to get out of there. 

Who knew you could get claustrophobic from being in a large expanse of woods?

She slashed through vegetation, growing more and more tired. Her only fuel at this point was her anger. Would this torture ever stop?

Suddenly she fell into a large hole.

"What the-?" Lust was cut off as a transmutation circle glowed underneath her, and she disappeared.

Gluttony could smell something. But what? It was very familiar. He wiped away the blood from his mouth with his hands to make a better sense of the smell. It was the smell of a woman.

Where had he smelled that before?

Lust. It was Lust.

"Lust!" He practically sang with delight. It was his Lust! Lust would know what to do! 

He started to run in the direction of his friend, overjoyed to soon be seeing a familiar face...

Lust had an uneasy feeling in her gut. She had been transported to a canyon overlooking a town called Rush Valley.

The wind rushed through her hair, and she had a feeling she would be facing her first opponent soon. But who? Hopefully it wouldn't be Greed, that jackass.

She sharpened her claw-like fingers. She would be ready.

 That's when she spotted a short, fat man bounding towards her, a grin on his face.

Gluttony saw her. It was Lust! He smiled widely, revealing blood-stained teeth. "Lust!" He chirped, running towards her. She was on top of a cliff.

Lust had seen him, and had looked down, her face dark.

What was wrong with her? He had to comfort her.

He jumped in the air, he was about to make it next to her when he was stabbed multiple times, at an alarming speed. Blood spurted from his mouth. "Lust?" He choked, as he fell down.

He was lying on the ground when Lust's curvy silhouette appeared next to him.

"Lust?" He whispered.

He was then stabbed multiple times, Lust showing no mercy.

Gluttony screamed, and Lust winced but kept going.

Then Gluttony remembered what Father had done with him. He fended himself against Lust, and escaped to a cliff above them. He groaned with his pain as the inside of him opened up, revealing a giant eye and many sharp teeth. He took a deep breath and everything in his path was swallowed up.

Lust's eyes widened. 

He bounced down next to her, and opened up even wider, he tried to swallow again, but Lust knew what to expect this time and dodged it, and ended up behind Gluttony.

She continued with her stabbing, and Gluttony wasn't prepared. He still felt weak from when Father had added on this feature and he fell to the ground.

His regeneration couldn't keep up with her and his hand started to crumble into dust. His eyes widened in fear. "No...I don't want to die..." He whimpered.

Lust stopped, watching. 

Gluttony writhed on the ground. "Lust..." He whispered, before the last of him faded away, along with the mysterious eye.

Lust stared at where Gluttony had been. She curled up her hands into fists.

"I'm sorry, my friend." She swatted at her tears. "It's what had to be done."

Father laughed from inside his lair. That was sooner than he thought. 

*Anyone else sad? I put two best friends to fight against each other...I'm so cruel...    :*(
