Tear A Path 131 Venom

You'd think you'd remember doing something so psychotic, but you were wrong weren't you? Dumba.s.s!

So let's see what the damage is... G.o.d! Just like me to think of something scarier than this little beauty in front of me... a dentist.

Everything bad? Good! Didn't get much worse from the last time. Let's see... that's the 17th black out now in lord knows how many minutes.

Wait somethings new with the head, then again that was probably too damaged even before the fight, else I wouldn't be here.

But seriously, I can no longer see out of my right eye, how'd I miss that? Shrapnel or air pressure from big and ugly? Does it matter?

Xi Ya's going to have a field day when she sees this. I can almost imagine the names, Black beard, Nick Fury, Guy from the sponge bob theme song.

...Wait that name, what was it?... can't remember, don't have time, he's getting ready for another roar.

Between my body being pulled apart in a tug of war by it's roar and my shackles, the pressure that it gives off which keeps breaking down my mind, and the dust which is shaving me from the skin down.

I think the thing that's going to kill me...

Is that obnoxious breath.

18th time, here I come...

Zhao Wei couldn't really decide how he was going to do this.

It was quite the long walk from Eyisha's place to the edge of the kingdom. Well it'd take him 20-30 minutes at most, but he really needed to think this through.

Well he'd planned for this for quite some time since he saw it. He wasn't going to just up and leave Guru, Kitsi and Sola while that thing was still lurking about outside their door.

The first one could probably defend himself, but the other two were definitely potential casualties.

Circ.u.mstances could've been better, maybe not after he just fought and not while he was still adjusting to the shackles. A month... no half a month and he'd be in a good position to fight it.

Too bad that wasn't in the cards. As he walked he spotted a decrepit... smack!!

"What was that for!?" Zhao Wei rubbed the top of his head.

"You were about to think about something rude..." Guru replied. "You know the evacuation's that way right?"

"I'd have to ask you the same thing..." Zhao Wei smiled.

"Don't get snappy with me!" Guru harrumphed.

They had a silent walk all the way to the dark entrance he came in through.

"What's your plan?" Guru asked.

"What's yours?..." he replied.

"Hold it back as long as possible..." Guru spoke indifferently.

"How long's that?"

"Ermm... 40 minutes give or take." Sounded about right, with so much prey in front of it, it could afford to miss not eating Guru if it couldn't catch him. "Yours?..."

"Draw it into the gate... if we're lucky it'll get lost like some of your men... if we're not, keep it inside these walls so the rest can get as far as possible.." Zhao Wei explained. "If he's in here, I think we can expand that 40 minutes..."

"Sounds like a good plan." They had arrived.

Zhao Wei turned towards Guru, stretching his arm out for a hand shake. "Let's have a little fun you cheeky old ba#%#rd."

"Sure you snot nosed brat." Guru smiled as he grasped Zhao Wei's hand tightly making him scream. "Sorry..Sorry."

Zhao Wei brushed it off and sat near the entrance. "What are you doing?" Guru asked, shouldn't they be preparing?

"I'm waiting for it to take effect."

"For what to!..." Guru's movement faltered. "D#%n! Brat! Let me go!!" Guru struggled, flapping his arms around, his tail was out of commission though as it twitched.

It was a new trap he'd made, modeling it after the death wish venom. On contact it'd release enough to take down a large beast. He'd just released 3 on Guru, what a monster.

"Oh dear Guru, your health is faltering in your old age. Let me help you out!!" He smiled.

"Go away you little sh%^!"

"There there... your tail seems to be stiff..."

In the end it took 11 of those things so that Guru couldn't move. He could still move his eyes though as he glared at Zhao Wei angrily. 7 more just for good measure.

Once he was done, he loaded the body into his carriage he hid in a corner. Inside, Panda, Myra as well as Kitsi and Thirteen were all down.

Luckily he'd gotten the parts from the blacksmith's early. He'd made a make s.h.i.+ft steam engine, except the movement would be based on the wind pressure from the Flying Fish organs instead of steam, for now this would work.

Turning it on, he sent them all towards where the evacuation was. In his heart, he felt a little disappointed, such a huge improvement and yet he wasn't able to use it.

Thank G.o.d though, most of them came one by one on his way here. If he'd had to take them all down together it'd be impossible to do anything else.
