Behemoth Battle

WHO: Graham Specter, Kazuma Kuwabara, Rukia Kuchiki, Yuffie Kisaragi
WHAT: Rukia's got her team of four to go tackle the behemoth in hopes of claiming the fat gil reward to be split between them. Regardless of how it goes, they later hang out to eat. Now they all have the plague.
WHEN: May 8th, 2016 - Noon
WHERE: Monster Arena
NOTE: Even if Rukia's team does defeat it, the reward still stands for others who want to challenge the behemoth either solo or in a team of their own.


As a Beastmaster, Rukia had favored that particular costume over her second job, mostly because the thick furs and sturdy leathers kept her warm during the season of cold weather. Now that spring had spread and temperatures were climbing, she had opted to appear at this battle in the more comfortable and familiar Ninja robes she'd first donned upon awakening in the city all those months ago.

The four of them stood behind the gate of iron bars that led into the Arena. Rukia's hand rested upon the handle of her katana, which remained sheathed at her hip for the time being. She hadn't yet summoned her pets, as she would need to gauge the situation before deciding which to bring to the front of combat. Yuki was likely her best bet, as the chocobo could heal, and the rest of her companions were well-suited for dealing heavy damage.

She also neglected to use her Invisibility skill. If she did this, the others were more likely to be targeted and attacked by the behemoth. Unless she became gravely injured, she would appear alongside the others.

Twice.

While she didn't plan to go invisible unless it was a last resort, having a clone of herself at the ready would be quite useful indeed.

The rattle of a metal chain clinked rhythmically as their gate slowly began to rise. On the other side of the arena, she could see the behemoth snorting and tearing at the ground behind its own enormous gate, beady eyes locked on the Heroes it was about to fight. "Is everyone prepared?" she asked, drawing her sword and gripping it tightly.

Since Graham had the unfortunate position of holding onto one of the beast's legs when it starts to freak out. He was kicked aside rather viciously, send sliding in the dirt, almost knocking him out of the safe radius. Unsteadily, he gets to his feet, but manages to risk getting close to it once again. It's the only way he can use Life Thief to heal himself; otherwise he'd be useless. He backs up as soon as he can from the monster in the hopes of not getting stomped on again.

Kuwabara rolled a good few feet himself as he used himself as mostly a shield for his teammates when things got really rough. Even if they didn't need it as much as he thought they did, Kuwabara still took the liberties for himself. Hopefully they're all okay because of it. He's covered in a bunch of cuts and bruises-- a typical thing for him, really.

He's staring at the giant angry creature that wasn't yet dead. Aw, c'mon seriously!? Just die already god damn it. He didn't want to deal with its angry stomping or swinging anymore. He did his best to shake off the damage and getting back to his feet. He's read to back up anyone if they need it.

Yuffie fell back on her ass with a wide grin. "That was awesome because no one died!" They were all pretty banged up though.

She looked from Rukia to the other two. "How you guys holdin' up?"

Graham was doing a bit better after stealing some health from the beast before it collapsed. He merrily tossed his wrench back and forth from hand to hand.

"All in a day's work! I need more challenges like this in my life. I was almost not bored for a few minutes there!"
ainohenshin: (ahahah nothing like a good  ol' fight)

Kuwabara staggers a little bit even though there's a huge dorky grin on his face as Rukia and the others are celebrating their victory. He made a peace sign with them before falling backwards with a thud.

Looks like Mr. Kuwabara exhausted himself. Man, did he need a damn nap.

"Yeah-- man we got 'im good damn."
