Chapter 116: The Least Amount Of Force
Chapter 116: The Least Amount Of Force
I relaxed my body and let go of my sprinter's pose as the girls giggled at me, so I started to blink around the room to give them something to giggle about! The girl each began to squeal as I started to appearing behind them and grabbing just above their hips. The girls tried to attack me, but I was gone before they could turn around.
Finally, getting each of the girls on the ground almost to tears laughing, I exited my suit and stretched. When I did, I noticed I had changed colors, or at least the thick lines that ran down my limbs and body had to a magenta purple. The lines still glowed, so I was sure my eye probably did as well, I glad I didn't have to start at the Chaos Gem level, or I would have a glowing red look.
That would be pretty scary to see in a fight, but it would also be disconcerting for the girls to look at, even if I wasn't charged up. Now though, the purple felt epic as I could see the lines even glow through my UW suits. I felt stronger and faster now, even standing without my suit, but I felt him coming.
I felt the energy build inside of me, and I turned, stepping back, swinging my hand up to meet Dresnal's.
*CRACK!*
The air broke as our hands connected and a shock-wave ripped between us. The air around us crackled with blue and purple static as I held my hand to pressed against Dresnal's hand, holding him back. Dresnal made a move to swing with his other hand, but I was just playing before.
Instantly I twisted and slid under his other hand and got behind Drensal with a raised hand. The slap made Dresnal grunt and step forward and then coughed up a bit of water. I jump back as Dresnal turned on me, but he had a large smile on his face as he slurped the water back in.
"Well, about time, you learned to play the game! Now I don't have to go easy on you anymore! HAHA!"
This guy was crazy; just how strong was he? I am pretty sure I could have slapped a hole out of the cave wall with that force! Dresnal waved the girls over, and everyone crowded around.
"You have all improved probably more than enough to have a fighting chance in this race, so this is where I leave you. I need to get back to Xeno to help deal with things there until you guys get there, and you will get there, I have faith. Dave, keep my little girl safe while im gone, you hear me?"
"Yes, Sir! I'll watch over Sasha and all of my girls!"
"Yeah, son, I know you will. It's just something that a father has to say, you know? Heh heh!"
We all had a good laugh and started to walk to the tunnel that led to the exit, where the Mega-Buggy was still parked. Iona, Tilly, Sasha, and Maxine were going to drop the rest of us at the city edge and head to stash our ride. There were no rules against doing, so accord to the locals and the few return racer Sasha and Maxine had talked to during their search to find out information for us.
"You guys kick some ass out there and bring home the bog prize, okay?" Dresnal said while extending his hand to me.
I was wearing my suit again, but it was not thanks to myself. I would have left the suit in my distraction, but as I heedlessly walked by, it grabbed me and then pulled itself onto me! I had been wretch off my feet and had been eaten by my MAS. I was with no better descriptive words or thoughts to explain what happened.
I reached my hand out and shook Dresnal's hand, but then a warning went off in my head from Diamond. Time slowed for everything and one around me; I felt the grip begin to tighten around my hand, but I slipped out of Dresnal's grasp, and then I was beside him before he could crush my hand. I raised my arm to backhand Dresnals shoulder, but as I swung, a system message flashed, oh no!
//SYSTEM OVERR!@$1241$%@...DO YOU WANT TO KILL HIM?
No!
//NON-LETHAL FORCE IT IS
*CRACK, SMACK*
When the back of my midnight black hand connected with Dresnal's shoulder, he was catapulted off his feet and into the wall. I watch in shock/awe/horror as Dresnal's body smashed into the wall and burst water everywhere. I heard Sasha cry out over the mic; all they would have seen was me striking him.
Sasha ran to her father, but he put a hand up cough out water. Sasha still rushed to her father's side and helped him up as he coughed out water, but still letting out rough laughs between fits. When Dresnal finally was able to stand up straight, he came over to where I stood with hands up.
Dresnal looked worse than the day he fought Irellia and Kyrin, and I was starting to feel bad. I went over to Dresnal and Sasha, but he broke away from his daughter and gave me a light smack on the shoulder.
"Well, I deserved that; I don't think I could stop you now, even if I tried! Wow, you really hit like a hand full of a mountain in that thing! I feel bad for the SOB's that have to tangle with you and Kyrina in the race! Now git!"
Dresnal turned and kissed her watery cheek and then turned to head back into the cave, still coughing up water. Sasha turned around to me, and I half expected to see an angry face staring me down, but she was smiling. She came over to join me and took my hand, leading me to the Mega-Buggy.
//That was really impressive, you know? I've never seen anyone cause my father that much damage in a single fight, or, at least in my memories, there are no moments close to what you did with a single hit! -Sasha.
/That was the least amount of force I could use
