ROOOAAAAR

The behemoth that was sleeping woke. A roar echoed through the chamber as the creatures around us fled into crevices and different pathways.

A talon was raised and dropped as all three of us dodged out of the way.

"Do you want me to help?" Delta yelled at us, the sound of the behemoth moving blocked normal speech.

"No-" I was going to say more but I was interrupted as another claw was raised and fell. Memoria was unsheathed and slashed at the claw that fell on me.

SLASH

"Huh" I involuntarily let out, I had expected the behemoth to be able to at least resist my attack but the claw was cleanly cut off. Even the wound was so clean that it took a moment for the blood to start rushing out.

Though once it did I dodged it as the sickly green blood sizzled in the air.

"Aoif!" I yelled, "want to take this on your own"

"Yeah" Aoif yelled back as her hand waved me to the side.

With that signal I jumped back to where Delta stood. Though before I could relax and start to watch the show Aoif appeared right next to me.

"Can I use your gun" her eyes shone as she pointed towards the rifle on her waist.

"Yeah" with that the rifle was unbuckled from where it was holstered to Delta and given to Aoif.

"Here" A bag of ammo was given to Aoif along with instructions on how to use them.

..

"Yeah, Here" Delta said, handing me the rifle at her side and a bag of ammo. I holstered the ammo to my side and made sure that it would stay there.

click

I inserted a clip of ammo into the rifle as the safety was clicked off. Once that was done I jumped from where I stood and into the fray, the behemoth or more accurately the wyvern that was flailing around could not find us. I didn't know why, maybe it was because of Delta or maybe it was just that the wyvern was blinded by the sun that shone so brightly down into the cavern that we were in.

I wasn't going to complain though, it had given me enough time to get a quick introduction on how to use the rifle in my hands and on how to reload it.

BANG BANG BANG

A burst of three bullets were shot, the flesh that I aimed at almost disintegrated at the force of the bullets. Of course that wasn't all that happened, the recoil of the rifle had thrown me from where I was in the air to the ground. Luckily I was prepared as I knew the rifle was going to have heavy recoil. Delta had told me so and warned me about it, though I didn't think that it was going to be that heavy. If I was any weaker it would have blown my shoulder off by the sheer force of it firing.

However I wasn't that weak. When I looked upon the damage that had been caused by the rifle I couldn't help but grin, a grin wide and full of bloodlust.

ROOOOOAAAAR

Another roar echoed from the wyverns mouth however this wasn't one of rage, no, it was one of fear, of the fear that I would kill it.

"Intelligent aren't you" I mumbled out, my eyes locked onto the fear in its eye. From the ground I lined up another shot, even as the ground around me crumbled I still lined the shot up.

BANG

The shot fired out and I jumped out of the way, the ground below me crumbling into a pit of spikes. My gaze followed the bullet's path and in just a moment it would..

"Tch" I clicked my tongue, the wyvern had dodged, its wing had swept to the side giving it enough momentum to swing its head out of the way. The only sign that I had even attempted to shoot at it was the enormous hole in the cavern's wall that came from the missed bullet.

Spikes of earth were sent at me as my muscles tensed, ready to dodge. With the rifle at my side, properly holstered I was ready.

'Now!' I thought, the ground rupturing below me as I jumped towards the side, the trigger of the rifle pulled.

BANG

The bullet drilled into the ground as the recoiled allowed me to accelerate closer to the wyvern in mere moments.

I unstrapped the rifle and within moments I had it aimed at the wyverns head.historical

"bang" I said, the trigger being pulled.

BANG

Brain matter sprayed everywhere as the wyverns brain was blown out, the constructs of earth that it had made scattered.

[Congratulations, you have obtained 1/10 ownership of the cavernous realm]

I repositioned myself in the air, my feet aimed at the ground as I fell. With a soft bang I was on the ground again.

..

"bang" I could hear Aoif whisper as she tensed her finger, the bullet exiting the chamber as it flew through the wyverns brains and out its chin.

Moments after Aoif was again on the ground, her eyes wide in joy as she walked up to me. I smiled at the sight, despite the blood that stained her clothes and face I still walked forwards, my hand reaching for her head.

pat pat

My hand fell on her head patting at it as I rubbed the blood off of her face.

"That was fun" I heard Aoif say, "Can I keep this"

"No" Was the immediate response of Delta as a hand reached to grab it. In mere moments the rifle was taken from Aoif and holstered on the side of Delta again. When I looked down it was to the sight of Aoif pouting, her cheeks puffed up as she looked downtrodden.

I couldn't resist the temptation and reached my hand over to her body and pulled her closer to me. My hand intertwined in hers while the other went to her cheek pulling at it. I just couldn't resist it was too cute.
