Chapter 229 229 Be Clear About Your Goals
Nexus' voice- full of rage- thundered from behind her;
"Get a hold of yourself! You're gonna kill them!!!"
Both his eyebrows merged together in a furry snarl- twisting the corners of his mouth in a low angry snarl.
The sound of his rebuke rose above the swishing flames- blasting right into Stacy York's ears. For a moment, the light went out in the girl's eyes. Slowly- she exhaled- dropping her arms lower and lower, detaching herself from the murderous rage she had entered.
Behind her, the master's footsteps clattered towards her.
"I told you," he rasped; "–I don't want them dead, and I certainly don't want them scampering away. . ."
He eyed her arms- swallowing nervously as he remembered her dexterity with the curling whips of fire.
She cocked her head towards him;
"Master, they won't just sit back and let me kick their asses. They're going to fight back! If we're not killing them, what are we doing then?"
The temperature around the terrain had shot up! The earth burned hot beneath their feet. Wisps of slow-rising-mist covered the surface of the ground, and the inescapable smell of burned flesh enveloped the hill like an invisible bubble.
"Relax," Nexus said; "I want them weakened. I want their strength drained. They need to fight, they need to feel like they stand a chance at somehow defeating us. . ."
Slowly lifting his arm, he brought it to rest on her right shoulder- tapping her gently;
". . .that won't happen if you keep raining down hell fire on them."
She blushed;
"Hellfire rain is a technique reserved for the top fire sages master. What I just did is called a firestorm."
"That's great and all. But Remember the goal, you need to show some restraint."
"Restraint," she mumbled quietly; "I'm sorry master. But that's not exactly a word a fire sage can relate to."
"Then here's a new word- balance."
Her eyes twinkled- and her nostrils flared slightly. Nexus sighed inwardly. There was no point. She didn't understand. Her base element was fire. And fire meant rage.
"Okay master Ni Yang," no, it wasn't okay; "I don't understand completely. But I think you want me to back off."
Nexus nodded- keeping the corner of his eyes trailed on the squirming wireworms.
On their milky white skin, patches of red dotted the crevice of their fleshy folds. Rich red pus oozed out freely from the slicing sounds of her fire whips. And the boiling heat of the earth's surface cooked them from beneath.
Stacy followed the gaze of her master- and turned fully away from him- facing the creatures squarely with Nexus by her side.
Together, they both watched as they slowly boiled in the residual heat of the hot slime.
"Maybe turn up the heat a little, so they can-"
Immediately both of them tensed.
Under their feet, from behind them, they felt and heard it.
A low rumbling- like a stampede!
"WATCH OUT!!" Nexus pushed Stacy out of the way- throwing himself to the side as well!
Half a second later, the furry black spider came bursting through! Its legs- all six and a half of them- clattered along the ground hurriedly- rushing in blind rage- towards the three wireworms!
Stacy was up on feet in a flash!
By her sides, her hands instinctively burst into twin balls of fire- crackling dangerously- reflecting her sudden apprehension.
"No- wait!" Nexus called aloud; "Its not coming for us- look!"
Sure enough, the giant spider lurched itself high in the air- landing with vengeful fury on the back of the biggest wireworm. It sank its iron sharp legs into the worms sides. Then threw its head forward and sank its jaws into the white body.
A violent struggle ensured.
Beneath the Black Widow, the worm shook violently, swaying its cylindrical shaped body. On the dorsal side of the wireworm- reddish brown spilled out of the punctured holes, covering the body wall with gusts of pulsing blood
Nexus and Stacy- eyes round- watched in awe as the Black Widow pierced and pierced the worm.
The sharp claws at the base of its legs ripped out of the wireworm- then arched upwards- before slamming down again- piercing and piercing in frantic frenzy- fucking up its insides, and external body as well.
As Nexus watched the other two wireworms slither towards the Black Widow, his eyebrows furrowed together in surprise.
Was it greed? Was it hunger? Or was it a false sense of comradery? He wondered.
Why the fuck were they coming back for the giant spider?!
But the furry legged creature wasn't bothered. With a slicing sound, it jerked its jaws away from its prey's neck and sharply jolted its head upwards. In its glossy red eyes, the reflection of the other two lit up its eyes.
With a powerful move, it jerked its claws out of the punctured worm under it- and sprung upwards with a powerful jump.
At that exact moment- with the giant spider high in the air, the remaining arc of the sun disappeared behind the horizon. A plop sound echoed mildly- followed by a eerie squeak, as it landed on the worm.
This time, its landing wasn't so graceful.
From the sky, its spread out figure crashed into wireworm number two. With a terrible slashing sound, the iron sharp edge of its strong legs struck the sides of the white creature. But Black Widow's rear legs crumbled- and it rolled over- tumbling down into the ground in a cloud of dust, and slime.
A throaty scream came out again- reverberating through the air in soul snatching notes.
Nexus' felt it in his bones.
Stacy's eyes stung.
In an instant, the shadow of the third worm suddenly fell over it. On its sides, the Black Widow's legs scrambled energetically- struggling to roll over. Nexus' eyes found the wounds, scars, and injuries on its body.
From its head, to its bulky torso, they cascaded in jagged criss-cross lines, telling a gruesome story. It hadn't fully recovered yet.
Looming over the Black Widow's kicking body, just a few inches away from the spider's neck, the third wireworm opened its terrible mouth wide- wider and wider.
Up close, the horrible stench curled out into the air- assaulting Nexus' and Stacy's nostrils on the spot. Up close, Nexus saw that his own head, shoulders, and groin would probably fit in perfectly in that terrible wide mouth.
At the corner of his right eye, Stacy stood- left leg in front, right leg behind, shoulders thrown back, and lashes fluttering above her intense gaze. She was alert. Good.
"It's gonna kill the Black Widow. . ." he announced; ". . .quick, join me, let's form a perimeter of fire around both of them."
Promptly, she responded.
Her head dropped low- like a tiger crouching, and both arms hurled upwards in excitement.
"Stacy! Remember, low heat! Make them uncomfortable, but don't roast them!"
She nodded absentmindedly. In her eye sockets, both her irises flashed rebelliously as she stared intently at the battleground- making calculations- running simulations.
But her master beat her to it.
Beside her, he lifted his sleeved arm, and pointed a single fire at the two slithering wireworms and black spider. Immediately, tongues of fire shot up from the ground- and rose upwards like flaming vegetation.
