[i]Roaming the streets of Dojoville so early in the morning was a rather skinny, poor looking man–with a rather panicked expression. He donned the robes of an alchemist, and the ring of a scholar–items that many would recognize from a famous village in the Gem Islands–not too far from Dojoville, actually.
His roaming began to speed into sprints as he searched for people on the streets at such a late hour, until the alchemist bumped into a man rounding a corner. Said man was about 5'11", and donned a black trench coat; his hair was jet black, and his eyes were green. On his back was a large, 4'6" greatsword; on his belt was a holstered handgun, and equipped in his right hand was a rifle. They were all custom-built, their models unknown–even their materials, undeterminable. Meanwhile, his left arm was cybernetic; a gunmetal gray color.
As the alchemist bumped into the man, Vance, he stopped him.[/i]
"What's wrong?" [i]Vance asked calmly; the alchemist struggled to catch his breath and calm himself, before he finally replied.[/i]
"Th-there's a monster that recently emerged on the Gem Islands. It's absolutely massive–60 feet tall, I tell you–and our attacks on it have been futile. It's been destroying our land, our livelihood... I've come to ask the Dojo for aid, with promise of reward. I also come with knowledge of how specifically beat him–all you would really need to do is follow my instruction!" [i]There was pleading in his eyes, voice, and expression.[/i]
"Please–for you warriors it should be easy loot and money, but it would save countless lives on the Gem Islands!"
[i]At this point, his voice was loud enough for any bystander to hear clearly.[/i][spoiler]Open–this will lead to a boss fight, obviously. And there will be loot and money.[/spoiler]

[i]Victoria nodded, deciding not to waste time and instead, to take action. She slung her Bolter over onto her back and drew her Bolt Pistol, letting out a deep breath as she charged towards her target: the Minotaur. About seven feet away from the being, she abruptly stopped and took aim, letting loose several .50 caliber rounds upon the being.[/i]
-
[i]The .50 caliber rounds plunged into the minotaur, he he let out a mighty roar; a moderately sized health bar appeared above it. His HP was at about 90% as it charged towards Victoria; the minotaur's greataxe was raised high above its head, preparing for an ultra-heavy attack; as it neared Victoria it swung vertically with said greataxe, the larger half of the blade plunging towards the Sister of Battle with frightening speed. Meanwhile, the huntress had begun firing arrows at Vance; he was able to mobilize his greatsword enough to either block or parry these arrows with the flat of his blade, but the mage was proving different. The mage seemed to be charging an electric blast; Vance saw this, and extended his cybernetic arm towards the mage. The mage let the lightning bolt loose, and the cybernetic arm of Vance proved to be a conductor; the electricity flew to the arm, and it was seemingly absorbed. A loud whirring, mechanical buzz was heard; the activation of an electric amplifier in the wrist of the cybernetic arm. Said electric blast was soon fired directly back at the mage with 2x the voltage; the mage was fried by the massive electric blast, its HP bar dropping to 40%. During this time he was unable to continue blocking arrows, and multiple had struck his right arm and side; he didn't let it bother him, though.[/i]

[i]Victoria had seen such motions from Khorne Berzerkers and Daemons beforehand, so much that she had predicted that the Minotaur would raise the axe high enough to where it could cleave her in two if given the opportunity. As such, she suddenly drew her Power Sword and strafed to the monster's immediate left, the energy activating around its blade as she swung towards its stomach region - an attempt to cleave it right in half.[/i]
-
[i]The minotaur executing his slam, the greataxe's blade slamming into the ground where Victoria was moments before; she was able to dodge it. Meanwhile, her powersword struck the minotaur's stomach; its flesh was surprisingly thick and tough. While the entirety of the blade's width stuck itself in the minotaur, the blade went to further. The minotaur let out a loud roar, lifting its greataxe once more as its HP bar dropped to 70%. It reared back, and took another, sideways sweep with the weapon, aiming the greataxe's blade horizontally at Victoria. Meanwhile, Vance backed off from the two he fought, taking caution as he carefully pulled arrows out of himself. The mage knew to not use lightning anymore, while the huntress continued to fire arrows that Vance continued to block. He raised his cybernetic arm once more, its joints once again lighting up with a bright green glow. He extended the arm towards the mage, and fired another bolt of electricity–this time it was his own, and the lightning was black. Its voltage amplified by the cybernetic arm, it struck the mage, taking it down to 20%.[/i]

[i]With the greataxe's weight and the fact that she was stuck either way, Victoria gritted her teeth as the axehead found its way into her back, slamming through her armor and cleaving into her flesh. A pained yell escaped her mouth, the axe scrapping against bone before she growled and grabbed her sword with both hands.[/i] [i]With thick blood issuing out of her new wound, Victoria began to literally saw through the minotaur's body now; the destructive energies of her blade assisted in the deposition of bone, while her raw strength and power helped as well. Soon, she would be sawing through the thing's backbone and simply killing it.[/i]
