[SP-F5] Desert Diver pt III

[Allania 0]

It was time to set off once again, ready to try and find another sub-dungeon. Thus far she had only been able to stumble upon one.It had been a rather pitiful fight she had to admit, the Boss barely laying a hand upon her, she even ended up trying to teach it how to fight. That was somewhat embarrassing, but it felt like she had a proper fight with it, two wills truly colliding.

It was still bright out, the Sun having past its peak and now on its trip back towards the horizon. Just because the sun was on its descent did not however mean it was any cooler. The sweltering heat of the desert stifled her slightly but she relished in it. She may not yet have the Survival skill but she loved the temperature. The sky was a deep blue, dark but welcoming. It was a bit of a change to the blindingly bright blue that normally accompanied the sun.

With Blaze by her side Allania set off to try and find a group of enemies of note, ones that she would be able to gather materials from. The best vantage point for this would be standing atop a dune, so that was where she headed, towards the crest of the nearest dune from which she would be able to see for miles around.

From atop the crest Allania spotted a group of giant crabs, their scarlet shell like a wound on the desert. Inspecting them for a moment Allania concluded that they'd be a good target. With her dagger in hand Allania began to run towards them, they were not far away, simply milling about at the trough of the dune she was stood on. Covering the distance quickly Allania jumped at them and began to spin, her dagger slicing into each of their shells. It was not that damaging of a blow but it got their attention. Now on the defensive Allania began to avoid the attacks launched at her by the crabs.

Allania was deftly deflecting the pincers of the crabs, the razor like edges missing her body by mere inches as she attempted to move them just far enough away to cause them to miss. It was tough to move such heavy objects, but she was succeeding. Once the onslaught waned Allania launched into her own attack, spinning about like she had done just moment before, her dagger once again arcing and slicing into the shells of the crabs.

Once again Allania let her dagger spin out around her, slicing into the scarlet shell of the crabs. With her attack finished she went back on the defensive aiming to avoid any and all attack aimed at her. It was not difficult though, the crabs may have been huge but they were slow and lumbering.  The crabs pincer's clamped shut feet away from her, sending gusts of winds out from the force of them closing alone.

Allania had grown over confident in her attacks, rushing towards the crabs and trying to attack them like she had moments ago. As her dagger span out around her she ended up tripping over something buried just under the sand, falling flat on her face in the sand. With her back so open the Crabs rushed her, their pincers clamping down upon her body one after the other, her pauldron protecting her from the damage of the blow. When the final crab clamped down it flicked its pincer and sent her flying across the sands, leaving a trail gouged into the sand

Before Allania could even get to her feet the crabs were upon her, slicing at her body with their claws. This time though she was more prepared, being able to lessen the severity of the blows with her dagger to such an extent that her armour's thorns were able to activate, scraping deep grooves into the shells, leaving them pixelated and rough. Getting back to her feet, the crabs having backed away from being injured by her armour. As they were on their back foot Allania rushed them, leaping and spinning her dagger around, dealing the finishing blow causing the crabs to vanish to be replaced by pixels floating in the air.

When the battle was over Allania signaled to Blaze, motioning for him to come from where he was perched atop the dune. He had been safe from the battle there, watching and ready to come charging in if it looked like Allania needed any help. In response to her waving Blaze came charging down the dune, slipping and sliding as the sand shifted around his hooves. He came sliding to a halt next to her, sending up a spray of sand into the air as he squealed in delight. His little dance and display always brought a smile to her face, so with one upon her face she knelt down and began to scratch at his ears, stroking him with her other hand.

Allania did not have much of a respite, while she was petting Blaze the sands shifted around her and another group of crabs rose from the sand. It seemed another had spawned underground and was making there way above. As they rose from the ground they struck out at Allania. As the sands shifted Allania dropped to her knees, arching her back over Blaze to protect him from the battle. When she had taken the blows she turned to them with darkness in her eyes, her dagger in hand she ferociously slashed at the crabs, hacking at their body with her dagger, cutting deep.

She was not done yet, even though she had just the one attacks worth of energy Allania did not relent, charging with a cry at the crabs, pushing them further back and away from Blaze, tears streaking from her eyes as the anger faded to relief. Blaze had survived, but it could have been close. If she had not covered the baby Boar with her body then he would have surely died. Her dagger once again sunk into the scarlet shells that surrounded her, crunching as the shell shattered where she cut. They barely had the chance to flail their limbs at her before she had hopped back to a safer distance, still between them and Blaze.

Her energy now depleted Allania would not give up on her attack, going for them once again. Waiting a moment for the one energy to tick up before she attacked the nearest one viciously, no longer having the energy to attack them all at once. Her attack though fell short, her dagger tip quivering as she brought it down and round, missing the creature by a large margin. Even though she had missed she was not about to let the creatures have at her, so her arms like lead pipes, she raised her dagger and sluggishly fended off the pincers of the crabs.

She was not able to fend them off for much longer, her movements getting slowly more and more sluggish. Each blow reducing it by a half. Quickly one of them passed her defence, her dagger scraping along the length of the pincer before being sent up into the air, her hand still grasping to it tightly. With her dagger held above her head Allania's main way of avoiding blows was gone, and thus was hit repeatedly by the crabs. Even though she was hit it helped her, snapping her out of her rage fully and back to her senses, with which she knew the best course of action would be to wait until her energy regenerated.

 Allania was still not ready to attack, her energy gauge was still at below half what she needed. Tick, Make that half, she thought, I just need to weather these attacks a bit longer. She was not only not ready to attack, she was still not ready to defend, her limbs were still leaden, hanging from her sides, seemingly useless unless she fought the fight on will alone. Unable to defend herself properly the Crabs attacked her in delight, tossing her from pincer to pincer, from crab to crab, her body like a ragdoll as it flew through the air, slowly taking more damage.

As she was being tossed about, her limbs still limp, flopping about with her ever changing momentum, the thorns upon her armour finally took effect, digging in deep to each crab as they tossed her about, deep puncture wounds appearing from where they had caught her. Once by one they finally exploded into millions of fragments the thorns having depleted their health bars. With no one left to catch her Allania landed in the sand, face first. Her body still limp she slowly raised herself to her feet.

This time Blaze did not even have the chance to be called over, before she was attacked again. Blaze had retreated back up the hill, watching in worry as Allania was thrown about, hopping about himself in frustration. When they were finally defeated he started to rush back down the dune only to be stopped as another horde of Crabs rose from the sand.

Not a moments respite, Allania thought as the new set of crabs rose up. With a tired smile upon her face she charged, her dagger sluggishly spinning around her, cutting into the critters as they continued to rise from the sand. While she cut them they retaliated in kind, cutting at her with their larger pincers, nipping as her body as they tried to injure her through her armour only to be raked by the thorns of her armour.

Depleted, once again. No energy so no attack. Even though she could not attack Allania would not remain still for them to attack her, running about in a haphazard path, unpredictable to the crabs attacking her. Due to the path she took the crabs were unable to land a blow, their pincers clamping shut metres away from her, all that she felt from them were the gusts of air they sent out, the currents wafting a cool breeze upon her face.

The path that was seemingly random before quickly came predictable to the Crabs, they had observed her for just a short while before going on the assault again. With her movement sluggish Allania was easily hit by the Crabs, their pincers attempting to slice into her. As they slowly crushed her she let out a little gasp of pain, her health slowly lowering yet her energy too low to attack still.

They continued to squeeze down upon her, slowly crushing her. The thorns on her armour activated though, boring deep holes into the shells of the crab. With such deep wounds pierced into their shells the crabs recoiled backwards. As they backed away slightly, pulling Allania along with her their grip on her loosened, it became loose enough for her to just slip through, escaping their grasp. Now free from their claws Allania sent her energy gauge a quick look, noting that she should be able to attack soon.

Tick. Finally enough energy, Allania thought, her body tired. Stepping forward Allania activated her only AoE sword art, her dagger circling round her and slicing deep into the crabs. As she sliced their returned her attack by snapping at her with their pincers. She was caugh, barely able to move, but that would not prevent her dagger from its slice, finishing off the crabs. A combination of the thorns and her dagger slicing into the creatures. They exploded, the pixel fragments hanging in the air. Allania collected the materials dropped and moved on.

Allania walked up the dune to Blaze, opening her menu and putting back on her dress. It was comforting with the dress on, reminding her of where she had come from. It was her first craft in this world, her first item made by her own hand. With the luck instilled in her Allania sat down beside Blaze and idly stroked at his head. It was a soft stroke, her fingers gently playing behind his ears, "That was a long fight" she said with a sigh, looking off towards the horizon, the sun getting low in the sky.

With a deep breath Allania slowed made herself stand up. It was getting close to night time so she needed to find somewhere to sleep. She would not have the time to get to a safe zone so would have to camp it out in the desert once again. Hobbling her way through the dunes Allania quickly came across a small cave, ducking her head to get inside Allania had to crouch down while inside. Seeing nothing of danger within Allania decided she'd camp here for the night. It was a good spot, most of the mobs here were giant and thus would be unable to enter the cave.
