"Simone's Parents" Slowly, Simone materialized near the place where his parents had died. Slowly, he figured out around how far in the cave in was, then tried to teleport in, but was thrown almost twenty feet up into the air, landy roughly. Slowly he got up. "Well, better not do that again," he thought slowly to himself. Then, he realized that his ressurection rune. "CHARM ARROWS!" he yelled, signaling with his will-power for the rune to take effect. Radiating from his body, six straight beams of holy light shot out, hitting the rocks, only to richochet back, Simone only barely dodging one, to be be hit by another. "Guess that won't work either," he thought to himself, mad at the prospect of digging it out himself. Slowly, through the course of two days, he managed to clear a passway for himself. Once inside, he reeled at the site of the corpeses of his parents. "UG!" he thought, seeing the remains of his parents. Slowly, he looked around, looking for some hint, when he found a box. On it, was a note, which read: Dear Simone, We fear that we are gone, but you can live up our legacy. In this box,
is a special Hearing Ear Rune. It can also let you understand other human
languages, as well as animal ones, and other humans better understand you,
as well as animals. You always were such a nice person, that we knew you
would like this gift.
With the utmost love,
"HA HA HA! My name is Nuku-Nuku Nuk, master of the swrd arts! Give me that box, or die! I have heard how rich your family was, so it MUST be amazingly expensive. Funny, you are the only person who could have opened a path, and since you will die her, no one will ever know that Master Suku-Suku Suk's son was the one to originaly kill your parents, Simone! My dad shunned me, so I got training elsewhere. So lets see who is better, you, my dad's strongest pupil, or me, his son!" a crazed Nuku-Nuku Nuk. At hearing this little oration, Simones stomache churened. The very master that trained him so well... his own son would kill him! So that must be the sin Suku-Suku Suk was talking about, raising the person that killed his parents! "YOU MONSTER!" Simone rang out. "Master Suku-Suku Suk and my parents were all great people. I was not your fathers fault that you turned out this way. Can a bad seed ever be good?" "Fool! Your idle talk will get you nowhere! So now, fool, DIE!" Nuku-Nuku Nuk said, charging at Simone as he finished. But Simone had not been trained so well to be killed by this man, so he easily dodged the attack, then ran towards the opening, box in hand, and ran out into open area, where he would easily win, obviously faster and a better skilled warrior than this pathetic psycopath. He then unsheathed Rhapsody, and got in the proper fighting position. Slowly, Nuku-Nuku Nuk came out, sword also in hand. Suddenly, Simone jumpest almost 5 feet up and came down, sword down to stab Nuku-Nuku Nuk. Nuku, obviously suprised by this, barely deflected it, leaving a huge hole in his gaurd. Quickly, Simone spun round, to chop Nuku, who guarded it. They then get into a test of strength. Simone noticed that Nuku was putting all of strength to win, and that the winning strategy was clear. He withdrew his wrd, sending Nuku flying off. Simone, sword ready to kill, ran after Nuku's stumbling body, forced to go on by Nuku's own strength. As Simone was about to plunge his sword into his opponents neck, only driven to do so put of the rage that this person had killed his parents, he said, "DIE A TERRIBLE DEATH! JUST LIKE THE WAY YOU KILLED MY PARENTS!" He then connected, and Nuku-Nuku Nuk was dead. Simone then withdrew his sword from Nuku's body, and slowly walked towards a nearby stream, and washed Shapsody, sheathed it, and walked aboy, fiddling with the box, and recollecting on what just happened.
